Lu Wensheng looked at the father and son's receding backs and muttered to himself:
"Old fox..."
He even pretended to be drunk in front of her!
Li Fugui had been silent for a while, and he suddenly remembered something that happened two years ago...
"No, this is not right!"
Lu Wensheng leaned forward and asked, "What's wrong?"
Li Fugui thought for a moment and continued, "This matter is not as simple as our uncle said. He almost killed someone two years ago. I don't know what happened in between. The commune secretary personally sent the person back."
"But I don't know if that person is Wang Laisheng. Anyway, my uncle doesn't deal with him very much. Usually, Zhenguo and I are the ones who receive him when he comes to the village." Li Fugui added
Lu Wensheng seemed to be thinking about something...
After thinking about it for a while, she put it out of her mind.
In fact, it was enough to know that the village chief had a grudge against him. There was no need to pry into other people's secrets. Anyway, his target was Wang Laisheng.
Lu Wensheng glanced at Lu Xie obscurely, and Lu Xie understood immediately. He walked over from the opposite side with a wine glass in hand and put his arm around Li Fugui's shoulders:
"Why think about those things? Just drink some wine."
Li Fugui was also a straightforward person. Without saying anything, he picked up his glass and the two began a new round of "emotional exchange".
Lu Wensheng took this opportunity to go into the house with Shen Lingling to discuss countermeasures: "What do you think?"
Shen Lingling replied as she tidied up her quilt: "The village chief lied."
He glanced at Lu Wensheng and continued, "I remember very clearly that Wang Laisheng was a member of the advanced Revolutionary Committee before he married into the family. He was not a member of the Revolutionary Committee who married into the family first and then joined the Revolutionary Committee."
Lu Wensheng was puzzled: "Then tell me, how did he get into the Revolutionary Committee when he couldn't even get a place in the exam? It's much harder to get into the Revolutionary Committee than the glass factory."
"There must be someone up there." Shen Lingling blurted out without thinking.
Lu Wensheng shook his head: "This is not right. If he has someone above him, why would he force himself to marry his ugly daughter?"
Shen Lingling suddenly fell silent. She couldn't figure it out...
"unless……"
Unless his connections above cannot be made public!
An answer was about to pop out in Lu Wensheng's mind. She walked around the room excitedly, her brain working non-stop. It would be fun if it was really the same as she thought.
Shen Lingling didn't say anything, but just carefully tidied the bedding.
They have to sleep in the pigsty tonight, watching over the piglets to prevent them from being crushed to death by the sows...
"I'm going too." Lu Wensheng said, pulling himself away from his thoughts.
"Okay." Shen Lingling was already packing her things.
In the afternoon, the team leader asked someone to deliver a bamboo bed, so all we had to do was pack the bedding.
Just as I tied up my bedding and was about to go out, I ran into Han Muchen, who was also carrying a bulging blanket on his shoulders:
"I'm going to keep watch tonight. Come to ask you about the precautions."
Shen Lingling's heart skipped a beat: "No... no need, Shengsheng and I can go."
Han Muchen said firmly: "I'll go, you go home and have a good sleep, and go to replace me tomorrow."
Without waiting for Shen Lingling to refuse, he took out the book "Postpartum Care for Sows" from her hand:
"I just need to do what it says, right?"
Before Shen Lingling could react, the person had already walked out the door.
Lu Wensheng stood at the back and watched the whole process: "Wow, Old Han is really good! He is much more reliable than Chen Shanhe!"
When Shen Lingling heard those three words, the happiness in her heart instantly disappeared:
"One hundred Chen Shanhe tied together are not as good as one finger of Han Muchen."
Lu Wensheng couldn't help but pinch her angry cheek and teased:
"Yes, yes, you are good-looking and everything you said is right!"
Shen Lingling was amused by her interruption and scolded her with a smile: "You are so talkative. I am a generation older than you!"
Lu Wensheng curled his lips. Who isn’t an old witch who has lived two lifetimes?
The people who were drinking outside had already left, and Lu Xie and Meng Qingtang were cleaning up the dishes in the kitchen.
Meng Qingtang looked at Lu Xie who was washing dishes and asked casually: "Uncle Xiao Xie, where are you sleeping tonight?"
Lu Xie replied without thinking: "Sleep in the cowshed."
Meng Qingtang felt a little disappointed: "Oh..."
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing, I just think you and grandpa are very close."
Lu Xie smiled and said: "I am your grandfather's last disciple, I have offered tea and worshipped him as my master.
A disciple is half a son, strictly speaking you should call me uncle!"
Meng Qingtang opened his mouth wide. Grandpa had never told him about this...
Lu Xie seemed to understand what he meant, and said with his hands spread out: "When your grandfather got into trouble, he was afraid that I would be implicated, so he expelled me from the sect before he was sent down."
He was also helpless: "The old man chased me away without hesitation, and he still won't let me call him Master."
Meng Qingtang understood.
"Okay, you pack the rest yourself. I'm going to the cowshed. If you're any later you won't be able to get in!" Lu Xie put away the last bowl and walked towards the cowshed carrying a basket.
In the basket was the wine and food he brought for the teacher, which he had reserved in advance before dinner.
Su Qishan stood in the yard for a long time, holding a newspaper in his hand.
He has been reading the newspaper recently and has some understanding of the current situation.
It was at this time that Lu Xie pushed the door open. It was dark, and someone in the yard scared him:
"Master, why are you standing here? Don't get cold."
Su Qishan rolled his eyes at him: "You still remember to come, I'm almost starving to death!"
In the afternoon, Xiaotang came to tell him not to cook in the evening, and he has been waiting until now. Who knew that this damn boy would only come now!
As he spoke, he stepped forward, snatched the basket from Lu Xie's hand, and walked into the house first:
"I told you to call the teacher. If you call me the wrong teacher again, I'll punish you to clean the cowshed!"
Lu Xie didn't say anything and followed silently into the house. The old man had a sharp tongue but a soft heart. He was obviously very happy but he had to pretend to be indifferent.
I am his only successor, and he has passed the clothes to me, but I am still stubborn~

Before work the next day, all team members had to go to the threshing ground for a meeting. Today was the day to harvest the crops in the mountains. In order to prevent those who were short-sighted from stealing the mountain products from their homes, the team leader made it clear in advance.
