"Captain, I don't want to!"
Old Wang's family sat at the entrance of the village committee and cried loudly: "You know my son was burned to death in the brick kiln, why do you want to open the brick kiln again?"
Her cries attracted the attention of the villagers.
Everyone stopped and looked towards the old lady.
"What's going on?"
"Why did I hear that a brick kiln was going to be opened?"
The surrounding voices whispered among themselves, and several villagers also glanced at the old lady: "No wonder the old lady couldn't stand it. We all know how Wang Zhiguo died."
"Why would the captain suddenly want to open a brick kiln? It's been closed for years. Even if we open it now, can we sell the bricks?"
Wen Xia Nuan stood in the crowd, listening to their whispers. Thinking of Huo Jue's efforts, she added, "Since it was the team leader who first proposed this brick kiln, he must have had some ideas. We don't need to guess anymore. Let's wait and see."
"The Wang family is not easy to deal with. How could they agree so easily?"
No one in the crowd said this.
Now that Chen Yanfang knew Huo Jue was going to take over the brick kiln factory, she wouldn't let these people continue to make trouble. "Alright, alright, the captain has said it, it's not good for us to ask too many questions now, so let's go."
Aunt Fatty glanced at her daughter suspiciously. After hearing what she said, she swallowed the rest of her words and said, "Let's all go back first."
After hearing what Aunt Pang said, everyone stopped hesitating and turned to leave.
"Chen Yanfang, what were you whispering to the educated youth just now?"
Auntie Pang's eyes fell on Chen Yanfang: "Isn't the Wang family's affairs related to Jue'er?"
"Oh, Mom, I really can't hide anything from you."
Chen Yanfang smiled and said, "I'm telling you now, don't spread it around."
"Alright! Am I the person you think I am?"
Auntie Pang glared at Chen Yanfang unhappily. Chen Yanfang chuckled and said, "I'm just worried that you might let something slip."
"But, Mom, I feel like you do have some smartness in you now."
Aunt Fat glared at her daughter angrily: "That's enough, do you think I am you?"
Chen Yanfang stuck out her tongue and explained the whole story one by one.
Auntie Pang finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Chen Yanfang and said, "You're right. Jue'er has had a hard time too. Since he's so motivated, shouldn't we help him too?"
Chen Yanfang nodded: "Mom, I think you are right."
She thought for a moment and glanced at Chen Yanfang: "What are we waiting for? Let's go there quickly."
Before Chen Yanfang could react, her mother pulled her out: "Mom, where are we going now?"
She looked suspicious, and Auntie Fatty said, "Old Wang's family is still making a fuss at the village committee, so shouldn't we go over and take a look?"
"You have to persuade him properly, right?"
When Chen Yanfang heard this, she responded, "Okay, I understand."
"Aunt Wang, tell me about this..."
The captain's eyes were full of embarrassment. He wanted to say something, but when he saw Aunt Wang's persistence, he couldn't utter a word.
"Aunt Wang!"
The appearance of Aunt Fat made the captain subconsciously feel relieved.
Auntie Fatty came to Old Wang's house with a smile on her face, looked at Auntie Wang in front of her and said, "Auntie Wang, it's been a long time since this happened. We all know you're upset, but the income of this village is so difficult right now. The team leader is also wholeheartedly for the villagers, isn't he?"
"If you ask me, you'd better tone it down and stop talking nonsense!"
Aunt Wang looked at Aunt Fatty and snorted coldly when she heard these words: "Aunt Fatty, don't think I don't know what you're thinking? Now that the captain has handed the matter over to Huo Jue, do you think I don't know what you're thinking?"
"Oh, this is really unfair to me. I don't even know what Huo Jue did with the captain, so how could I be in cahoots with them?"
Auntie Fatty waved her hands in grievance, and Auntie Wang's eyes were filled with coldness: "Auntie Fatty, don't come and talk nonsense in front of me. In the end, I don't agree to open this brick kiln no matter what."
The team leader frowned deeply. He took a deep breath and said, "Aunt Wang, the village compensated you for what happened to your family. We know you still feel a little upset, but you should know that we have to ensure the team's profits from now on!"
"You don't want every household to have to eat coarse food, do you?"
Aunt Wang sneered, "I don't care about these things at all. Captain, you know what my family's situation is like. It doesn't matter whether we have to eat coarse food or not."
"Aunt Wang, tell me, why do you need to do this? If our brigade is profitable, won't you and Uncle Wang be able to enjoy your retirement?"
Auntie Fatty stood aside, looked at her and nodded, saying, "Yes, Auntie Wang, this is a good thing. When the brick kiln opens, let the team leader arrange some easy work for you. Wouldn't that help you save more money?"
"Don't sit on the ground in the rain. Be careful not to catch a cold!"
Auntie Fat reached out to pull it away, but Auntie Wang didn't move, her eyes full of seriousness: "I won't bother you with these things. I said this brick kiln can't be opened!"
Auntie Wang quickly got up from the ground, her eyes filled with a bit of viciousness: "If you want to open this brick kiln factory, you can wait until Old Wang and I are dead!"
After Aunt Wang finished speaking, she turned around and left angrily.
The captain watched Aunt Wang gradually leave before him and sighed for a long time: "What should we do? Huo Jue is too unreliable to let her come here and cause trouble."
"Captain, don't worry. We may not know the answer to this question yet."
Thinking of Jue'er leading the villagers to resist the flood in the river, Auntie Pang also said: "Jue'er has put a lot of thought into the river these days. It's understandable that Auntie Wang couldn't take care of it for the time being."
"Auntie Fatty, you should ask everyone if they are willing to do this brick kiln thing."
The captain pulled his hair in pain and said, "I just wanted to make life easier for the villagers, but I didn't expect those people from Old Wang's family to have such an attitude."
He shook his head and said helplessly: "It really hurts my heart!"
Auntie Pang saw this and comforted him, "Captain, don't underestimate yourself. Everyone in our village knows that your ideas are good."
