"I didn't mean that at all. I... I don't know what I ate wrong today. I heard you talking about Chen Qing with Su Zhiqing just now, is it really her?"
"She's the only one I can think of right now."
"It's a win-win-win situation. If we get together, besides getting rid of you, this harassing guy, we can also eliminate my rivals Zhang Cuicao and me. She must have drugged me."
"Drug her? She didn't give me anything to eat. I haven't seen her all day."
"There's some white powder in the spot where you hid just now."
"I hid there because Qiuzhen repeatedly emphasized it. When I went there, I was really choked by the smell. I thought it was dirt."
"Hmph, if it really is Chen Qing, I'll teach her a lesson tomorrow. If it isn't, then you're lying to me, and I won't let you get away with it either."
He Wan watched his indignant expression from the shore and laughed, "What's so great about her that you like her so much? Is it her looks or her status?"
Anyway, she's better looking than you.
"Tch, I knew you men only care about looks." He Wan said disapprovingly, "Although I'm not curvaceous, I have a fair and round face, full of youthful energy, bright eyes, and a tall stature. Oh, I'll grow taller, I'll definitely be 1.7 meters tall in the future."
While not top-quality, they are certainly above average.
If I dressed up a bit more, I could charm all the young men in the village, believe it or not.
But I disdain doing such things.
"Her, Chen Qing, only has that pitiful little face and voluptuous figure to attract you men. Everything else... pshaw, no matter how beautiful she is, if she's vicious, it's all for nothing. You still like someone like that?"
"If she really did it, I don't like her anymore. This woman is too scary. How could she poison someone? Where did she get these drugs? If I marry a woman like this, I won't be able to sleep peacefully at night."
"Hmph, you're still clear-headed. Tell me how you plan to get revenge on Chen Qing."
"Well... I haven't thought about it yet, and besides, it's still uncertain."
He Wan was absolutely certain it was her. She took out the powder she had just collected from her pocket, waved it at him, and didn't say anything, but Li Weidong understood.
"I will find the evidence."
Li Weidong carefully considered Qiu Zhen's words today and began to believe He Wan's words. He said, "Hitting a woman makes me, a grown man, seem tasteless. I can't vent my anger without hitting her. But if a woman hits another woman, no one will say anything, right?"
"Oh, now you're saying that? Who was it that blocked my way before, challenging me to a one-on-one fight?"
"How can that be the same? Let's get down to business. Xiao He, the educated youth, I'll cover for you, and you have to help me get revenge."
"What are the benefits?"
"From now on, you'll be my little sister. I'll protect you in the village, and no one will dare to bully you."
"No, I want to be the eldest sister."
"..."
While He Wan and Li Weidong were talking, Zhang Jianjun hurriedly walked over from a distance.
"Zhang, the educated youth, isn't Captain Wang?"
"Captain Wang went to check on the rice in his paddy field. Su Zhiqing was in such a hurry that he didn't explain clearly, he just told me to come find you." Zhang Jianjun had already seen Li Weidong in the water when he spoke.
Li Weidong was a good-for-nothing in the village, so it couldn't be anything good that He Wan was called out in the middle of the night.
But looking at Li Weidong in the water, I can't tell who's to blame right now.
He Wan was worried about Zhang Cuicao and didn't have the patience to explain to him. She said, "Zhang Zhiqing, keep an eye on Comrade Li for me. Don't let him come out yet. Ask him what's going on." After saying that, she took two steps and then added worriedly, "Don't let him come out. He pounces on anyone he sees now."
Zhang Jianjun was confused, but Li Weidong understood perfectly. He protested in the water, "Xiao He, you can't say that. I'm not someone who can do anything."
He Wan ignored him, left the flashlight with Zhang Jianjun, and turned to leave.
After walking for a while, out of Zhang Jianjun's and the others' sight, he took out another flashlight and muttered to himself, "Old Yun, you're so wise to get me two flashlights. They'll really come in handy in an emergency."
As they approached the educated youth settlement, they bumped into Su Ranran: "Sister Ranran, did you find it?"
“She’s not at the pigsty. Grandpa Li said she left a while ago. I went back to the educated youth settlement, but no one was home. My God, I hope nothing bad has happened to Cuicao.”
He Wan frowned, and after a long while, she said, "In our village, which woodpile has a hole in it?"
