Shen Lingling was about to give the money, but Wang Yinhua pushed her away:
"What money are you giving me? You are insulting your Aunt Wang. It's not a valuable thing!"
Shen Lingling didn't want to owe anyone a favor, so she thought about it and took out a few peanut candies and melon seeds from her pocket and stuffed them into Wang Yinhua's hand:
"Auntie, don't be polite with me. I made this candy myself. Take it back and give it to the child."
Wang Yinhua saw her grandson's greedy look and couldn't bear to refuse, so she put it in her pocket happily:
"Okay! Then I'm taking advantage of you. I'll bring you some food later in the afternoon!"
Shen Lingling nodded: "That's great, I'm just worried about not having enough vegetables to eat in winter!"
"You can also make candies, that's amazing!" Wang Yinhua praised the exquisite candies again and again.
Shen Lingling nodded: "Yes, Shengsheng likes to eat."
Everyone was stunned: Who doesn’t like to eat!
After cooking for a while, when Li Shitou came back, Shen Lingling said hello to a few familiar aunts and went home to cook. The winter melon soup would taste better if it was stewed for a while longer.
Little did she know that as soon as she left, the threshing floor became lively, and several people began to discuss the previous question:
"Hey, do you think there is something going on between her and the captain?"
"There must be something wrong, otherwise how could she do the easiest job in the team? If there's no one behind her, I'll eat this stone!"
"Are you itching for trouble? How dare you discuss this?"
"Tell me what happened, no one heard it."
"I'm not a human?"
Several people were stunned by the sudden words, and when they looked up, it was Shen Zhiqing who had returned!
The cricket man behind the scenes was caught by the real owner, and those aunts were embarrassed.
Shen Lingling walked up to the man who wanted to eat stones with a gloomy look on her face and said, "You like to eat stones, right? I'll help you!"
As he said this, he grabbed the other person's hair with one hand and grabbed a handful of dirt with the other hand and stuffed it into her mouth.
After finishing the job, he pushed the person away with disgust and stood up to look at everyone:
"Do you want to know who's behind me? I won't tell you! Why should I tell you just because you want to hear it? This will be the fate of anyone who dares to gossip about me in the future!"
As he said this, he stepped hard on the man's calf. With a "crack", the leg was probably broken.
Everyone gasped, especially those who had just arranged for her. They shrank in place like quails, afraid that she would cause trouble for them!
Shen Lingling didn't even look at the person lying on the ground. She picked up her kettle and walked back.
Damn, it's so unlucky! She had to fight with someone just to get a kettle. Her image as a weak and helpless person is ruined!
But Shengsheng's way of taking action instead of talking is so cool!

On the way to the brigade headquarters with Li Fugui, Lu Wensheng took out a large oil-paper bag from his bag:
"Captain, this is Lingling's return gift to you!"
"Oh? What is it?" Li Fugui took it curiously and opened it to see that it was still a bun...
"this……"
"To be honest, Lingling really told you that I wanted to eat buns. She made these this morning and asked me to bring a few back for your sister-in-law to try."
Lu Wensheng did not forget to say good things to Shen Lingling.
Li Fugui was very happy: "Hey! There's no need to return the gift. You guys from the city should just be polite!"
As he said that, he picked up one at random and took a bite. His eyes lit up and he praised:
"Tofu and radish filling? No, why is it so delicious? Did you put dried shrimp in it?"
"It's not dried shrimps, it's scallops, sent by Xiao Luzi's family." Lu Wensheng explained.
“No wonder it’s so delicious!”
It was the first time for him to eat this abalone and he ate one after another and could not stop. He had not eaten since last night, all because of those two troublesome people who disturbed his family's energy!
The team leader ate so quickly that five of his food had already gone down before he even reached the team headquarters.
Lu Wensheng felt that with the way he ate, these buns wouldn’t even have Qian Juan and Li Caixia in them…
Li Fugui: Do they deserve it? They don’t deserve it!
After showing off the last bun, Li Zhenguo just entered the office. He was pouring a glass of water but before he could drink it, he was requisitioned by Li Fugui.
Li Zhenguo was shocked by the fact that he hadn't drunk water for 800 years: "Brother, drink slowly, ouch!"
Li Fugui ignored him. After eating and drinking, he felt much better: "Uncle, I called Xiaolu over."
Li Xiangyang raised his head from a pile of documents and was about to speak when he heard a commotion outside, and then two people rushed in.
An old woman came in and sat on the ground howling, complaining: "Village head, you have to make the decision for us, Shen Zhiqing is too bullying!"
Hmm? They looked at each other and then at Li Shitou who followed in.
"Shitou, what's going on?"
Li Shitou wiped the sweat off his head and replied with a heavy breath:
"Gou Sheng's mother said in the threshing ground that Shen Zhiqing was having an affair with... with the team leader, and she heard it, and then..."
"So what!" Li Fugui asked with a gloomy face.
Li Shitou simply told the whole story: "Shen Zhiqing fed the dog and left his mother with a handful of dirt, and even stepped on her and broke her leg."
The old woman on the ground cried louder and louder. Li Xiangyang was so annoyed that he slammed the table and said, "Shut your mouth!"
The old woman burped in fear and quickly closed her mouth, staring at Lu Wensheng beside her without daring to say a word.
Li Fugui glanced at Li Xiangyang: "What should I do, uncle?"
Li Xiangyang glared at him fiercely. He had the nerve to ask what to do? If it weren't for his wife and sister farting outside, things wouldn't have turned out like this!
Li Xiangyang looked at Lu Wensheng, who had a calm expression, and asked, "What are you going to do?"
Lu Wensheng spread his hands: "What can we do? Isn't her purpose in coming here to make us pay? How much is one leg?"
Seeing that she was easy to talk to, the old woman rolled her eyes in her eyes. After a long while, she opened her mouth and said, "Ten dollars!"
"Hiss!" There were sounds of several people gasping in the room.
Lu Wensheng didn't care and nodded, "Ten dollars is not much. Let's go and give the money to your house."
Everyone was puzzled, and the old woman was even more puzzled: "I'm here, so you don't have to make another trip..."
Lu Wensheng had a blank expression on his face: "That won't work. One leg is not enough. Besides, odd numbers are unlucky. I'll give you eighty today. How about buying eight legs from you? I'm not short of money."
All I need is eight legs to play with~ Li Zhenguo added in his mind...
