Wei Xiaohui handed the Ula straw sandals to the brigade leader, who then showed them to all the villagers.
"Oh my, the eldest daughter of the Wei family knits so well, it feels better than the ones I bought."
"Yes, yes, look! It's really beautiful, and there's not a single gap."
The villagers chattered amongst themselves, while Wang Xinbo also saw the straw sandals woven by Wei Xiaohui, and then looked at the straw sandals in his own hand.
She burst into tears, threw down her straw sandals, and tried to run away from the Wei Mo family's courtyard, but Li Xiuxiu grabbed her and threw her to the ground with force.
Li Xiuxiu looked at Wang Xinbo on the ground and slowly spoke.
"What? You think you can just run away after losing? You want to renege on your promise?"
The villagers who were watching the commotion also chimed in with their comments.
"That's right, you can't just deny it! Let me tell you, we're watching!"
Everyone was talking at once, but Wang Xinbo didn't dare to say a word. Even her close friends and her sister didn't say a word.
Seeing that he couldn't escape either, Wang Xinbo stubbornly said...
"Then deduct it, ten points and that's it. If I get beaten to death when I get home, it's all your Wei family's fault."
Even at this point, she was still blaming others instead of looking for connections within herself. The brigade leader saw this and spoke up.
"Alright, ignore her. Let her go if she wants. I'm going to deduct her work points."
The captain was also furious. They wouldn't listen to advice yesterday, and now they're causing trouble again? Who else should be punished if not them? And that's how the farce ended.
Wei Xiaohui received praise from the whole family.
"Big sister, you're amazing, you're fantastic!"
Wei Xiaomin praised her older sister, saying that her weaving skills were really not as good as Wei Xiaohui's.
The main problem is that she doesn't put her heart into learning knitting and always wants to go play, unlike Wei Xiaohui, who is constantly working hard to learn knitting. Of course, Wei Xiaohui's knitting skills are getting better and better.
Even Wang Zhenhua and his friends had to admit that they were inferior to Wei Xiaohui in terms of knitting skills.
The old man spoke up from the side.
"My dear granddaughter, make me something delicious for lunch to praise her."
Qian Manman smiled, this was a victory for the entire knitting team, and she was naturally happy too.
"Okay, okay, Godfather, don't worry, I will definitely make some of Xiaohui's favorite foods for lunch."
Wang Xinbo and the others returned home with long faces, knowing they would inevitably get a beating again tonight, while Wei Mo's family remained cheerful.
Not only that, Wei Xiaohui also helped her family win 100 work points today, but no one expected that Wang Xinbo would continue to court disaster.
She reported the matter to the town government, thinking it would be over, but then police officer Wang Bao came to the village to inquire about the situation.
Upon learning the details, the police were furious and berated Wang Xinbo's husband.
At the same time, the brigade leader was ordered to punish Wang Xinbo, since everyone in the village could testify to this, and it was also considered a slander against the martyr's family.
Because Grandpa Yu was also on the list of people she was suing, the town mayor took the matter very seriously and immediately sent him to check.
Upon learning of the situation, Wang Bao wanted to take Wang Xinbo to town, but it was only after Old Master Yu pleaded for her that she was spared.
The old man didn't want to bring any more trouble to the family, but Wei Mo didn't think so. He was determined to give her a good beating if he had the chance.
Life in the village returned to its usual routine, and Wei Mo reverted to his old ways, spending his days playing.
Wei's mother didn't care about this, but she told Wei Mo to go up the mountain as little as possible, since it was too dangerous.
But there were so few things to do in the village, so Wei Mo had no choice but to go to Li Xiuxiu.
"Aunt Xiuxiu, let's go play in the mountains."
Li Xiuxiu looked at Wei Mo, who was trying to act cute with her, and said with a hint of helplessness,
"Didn't Sister Wang say we weren't allowed to go up the mountain? Why do you still want to go? Maybe we should go later."
But Wei Mo pleaded desperately, clinging to Li Xiuxiu's leg and refusing to let go.
"Aunt Xiuxiu, please."
Li Xiuxiu already doted on Wei Mo, so in the end she could only nod in agreement.
"Okay, okay, I'll go tell Sister Wang. You wait for me here."
Then, Li Xiuxiu got up and walked towards Wang Zhenhua, who was resting on the kang (a heated brick bed). It was lunchtime, so no one had started weaving yet.
As soon as Li Xiuxiu entered Wang Zhenhua's room, she spoke to her.
"Sister Wang, I have something to tell you."
Wang Zhenhua looked at her with a puzzled expression, and Li Xiuxiu continued to speak.
"I want to go to the mountains and hunt some game; we haven't had any meat at home lately."
It's true that the family hasn't eaten meat for a long time, since they haven't been up the mountain recently. Hearing Li Xiuxiu's words, Wei's mother was somewhat reluctant to agree.
However, Li Xiuxiu was also thinking of her family, so she spoke up again.
"Sister Wang, please let me go. It's alright. The wolves have already been driven away by the militia."
In the end, Wang Zhenhua could only nod.
"Alright then, be careful going up the mountain, and bring your gun with you."
With Wang Zhenhua's agreement, Wei Mo rushed in and shouted loudly.
"Mom, Mom, I want to go too, I want to go too."
As Wei Mo entered the room, Wang Zhenhua's brows furrowed even more.
"No, absolutely not! You can't run around like that. Don't cause trouble for your Aunt Xiuxiu."
Wei Mo was still too young, so his mother naturally wouldn't agree. However, Wei Mo said...
"Mom, you forgot, I have the Divine Dragon Protection Device."
Hearing Wei Mo's words and seeing his comical actions, Li Xiuxiu burst out laughing, but Wei Mo's mother, Wang Zhenhua, did not.
After thinking about it, she hesitated, especially since Wei Mo kept shaking her thighs and begging.
"Mom, please let me go, it's okay, have you forgotten?"
Wang Zhenhua was somewhat helpless after what his son said, and could only nod in agreement.
"Alright then, you two be careful when you go up the mountain."
Then Mom sighed.
Wei Mo happily pulled Li Xiuxiu outside to prepare some things so they could go hunting and gathering herbs in the mountains.
Wei Mo has consumed a lot of stamina pills during this period, and now his strength is actually much greater than Li Xiuxiu's.
After all, the money in the trading mall is just sitting there, so it's better to buy things that will help him. Therefore, apart from learning skills, Wei Mo used all his money to improve his stamina.
As the two got ready to go, Wei Mo carried his small basket on his back, and Li Xiuxiu carried one on hers as well.
Li Xiuxiu packed the Type 38 rifle into her basket, and the two of them walked hand in hand into the mountains.
"When we go up the mountain later, you have to stay close to me, okay?"
Li Xiuxiu was still a little worried, after all, this naughty child was too disobedient, so she could only give Wei Mo some instructions.
Wei Mo replied, feigning a dazed look.
"Okay, Aunt Xiuxiu, don't worry, I'll definitely listen to you."
