The two men widened their eyes and said, "Kid, are you talking to us?"
Jiaojiao nodded: "Yes, Auntie."
The two looked at each other, and one of the short and fat ones gritted his teeth and said, "Kid, we are aunts, not grandmas!"
Jiaojiao hid behind Lin Zhongxiao: "This old lady is angry!"
Lianhua took two steps forward and asked, "Where are you from, and what are you doing in our Wangjia Village?"
Lianhua often followed Old Lady Feng around, visiting families with births and illnesses. With so much travel, there was no one in the surrounding brigade she didn't know. Even if she couldn't remember someone, they would recognize her! After all, her grandmother was a bit of a name in the area.
But she had no impression of the two people in front of her. They were definitely not from the nearby brigade.
The two men panicked for a moment, but the tall, thin woman quickly regained her composure. "We're here to see Technician Li! I heard he's been stationed here long-term! We're his family!"
Lianhua looked at the two suspiciously. "You two don't look alike to me! Why are you acting so furtively when you come to see Technician Li?"
"Tell me, are you trying to cheat people by using Technician Li's name?"
Lotus asked sharply. Technician Li had a good reputation in the area, so it wasn't impossible for him to use his reputation to deceive people.
"Sister, how is it possible! We are the eldest and second sisters-in-law of Technician Li. Our fourth brother hasn't been home for a long time, and our mother-in-law misses him very much, so we asked him to come and see him!" The tall and thin woman spoke. She was the second sister-in-law of Li, and was smarter than the eldest sister-in-law.
Lianhua hesitated and said, "Technician Li is distributing saplings on the mountain right now. You'll have to wait a while even if you come. With so many people going up the mountain, he probably won't be able to take care of you. If you want to see if he's okay, just go up the mountain and take a look."
The eldest and second sisters-in-law of the Li family looked at each other and said, "Giving out saplings? What saplings? Peach saplings? Do we have any?"
In the first half of the year, the peach trees at home bore fruit, and we secretly picked the fruits and sold them for money. By the time they found out, it was too late. Fortunately, we managed to get some money out of the two old people.
But they weren't satisfied. It was said that the peaches were incredibly valuable, fetching even more than meat! They'd only picked them for their children, but who could have imagined they could fetch so much?
They didn't pay attention when they divided the family property. When the fourth brother said the peach tree belonged to him, they didn't think much of it. Who knew that the fourth brother was so treacherous and insidious!
These thoughts only flashed through their minds. Without waiting for Lianhua to answer, they hurriedly said, "Then tell us first, where is our fourth child? Let's go and see!"
No matter how Lianhua looked at them, she felt that these two people had bad intentions. She wondered if they were really the two sisters-in-law of Technician Li as they said.
"Let me take you there!" Lianhua didn't even eat breakfast. These two people were acting weird, and she had to keep a close eye on them.
