More and more people surrounded Shi Yan, but Shi Yan ignored them and looked directly across the crowd at Lin Ran who was standing motionless behind the crowd.
Lin Ran had a bad feeling. What did this person want to do?
I am the scorekeeper, do you still want me to help raise silkworms?
But just as the thought came to his mind, he heard Shi Yan's cold voice.
"Uncle Lin, can Comrade Lin Ran come over to help?"
"this……"
Lin Weiguo hesitated. "Ranran is the scorekeeper. I'm afraid she doesn't have enough time. How about someone else?"
Shi Yan therefore did it difficult to say:
"I was thinking that since Comrade Lin Ran is familiar with the Tashan Brigade and can read and write, if we could work together on sericulture, we would definitely get twice the result with half the effort."
Lin Weiguo was indeed shaken when he heard this.
As long as it helps with silkworm rearing, everything else has to take a back seat.
After hesitating for less than two seconds, he agreed on behalf of Lin Ran.
"Okay, I can take care of Ranran's scorekeeper job during this period."
Having achieved his goal, a smile finally appeared in Shi Yan's dark eyes.
This time he was quite understanding.
"Uncle Lin, don't worry. Comrade Lin Ran can continue to work as a scorekeeper. I'll just be there to watch over him. But if there's anything you need Comrade Lin Ran's help with, please don't refuse."
After saying that, he raised his eyes and looked at Lin Ran, his eyes full of deep meaning.
Lin Ran was so angry that she clenched her handkerchief tightly.
This person clearly did it on purpose!
She couldn't hide now.
Lin Weiguo had no idea what Lin Ran was thinking. When he heard that Shi Yan was going to take on most of the work by himself, he immediately waved his hand.
"How can I let you do this all by yourself? How about this? Let my third son come along and help you. His leg is almost healed now, so he can still do things like raising silkworms. I'll let him follow your lead then."
"If you can't do anything else, go find Ranran. We will definitely fully cooperate with your silkworm breeding work."
Shi Yan did not refuse this time.
Anyway, he just wanted a chance to talk to Lin Ran.
As for Shi Yan choosing Lin Ran and Lin Lao San, the others couldn't say anything because Lin Weiguo was present.
But Accountant Zheng doesn't care. He's eager to find more faults with Lin Weiguo.
He immediately stood up and righteously accused Lin Weiguo.
"What the captain did was a bit dishonest, wasn't it? Let's not talk about the truth of the silkworm farming for now. Let's just talk about the three people involved in the silkworm farming. Two of them are from the captain's family."
"Especially for Lin Lao San, who is still recovering from his injuries and can't go to work, how can he get full work points? Isn't that a bit outrageous?"
These words instantly wiped out Lin Weiguo's good mood.
He looked at Accountant Zheng calmly and sneered.
"Accountant Zheng really needs to change his impatience. I haven't even finished what I'm saying, and you're already desperately trying to discredit me."
"I just asked my third son to help. He's idle at home anyway. Did I say I'd give him work points?"
Accountant Zheng was skeptical, "The captain is willing to let Lin Laosan do free labor?"
"What do you mean by 'waste of work'? As the accountant of the Tashan Brigade, don't you know how significant an impact this silkworm breeding campaign will have on our brigade if it's successful?"
Lin Weiguo was really angry this time, and his tone became heavier unconsciously.
When Accountant Zheng heard this, he scolded him in public without any regard for his dignity.
He narrowed his eyes to hide the resentment in them.
As soon as Lin Weiguo said this, the team members who had just had the same idea as Accountant Zheng all looked ashamed.
They all misunderstood the captain.
At the same time, he secretly admired the character of Captain Lin Weiguo.
This is truly a consideration for the members of their Tashan Brigade!
In contrast, Accountant Zheng seems a bit petty.
Accountant Zheng could feel the contemptuous glances coming from all of them.
He hated Lin Weiguo more and more for embarrassing him in public, completely forgetting that he was the one who started it.
Lin Weiguo didn't have time to pay attention to Accountant Zheng, and instead went to take care of some of the remaining matters regarding silkworm rearing.
For example, where to raise it.
Taking various reasons into consideration, the location was finally decided to be the Lin family.
The Lin family still has an old house that has not been demolished, which is right next to Lin Laosan's room, which just saves Lin Laosan from running away.
And if we leave it at the Lin family, we don’t have to worry about children causing trouble.
Accountant Zheng, who was standing by, had finally managed to suppress his anger. He just came to his senses when he heard these words. Suddenly, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
If Shi Yan could really grow silk, wouldn't that be a credit that came right to his doorstep?
But the prerequisite is that there must be no roadblock like Lin Weiguo.
Thinking of this, Accountant Zheng began to ponder in his mind.
…
When the meeting finally ended and the crowd dispersed, Lin Ran saw Qin Jianye standing not far behind her.
Qin Jianye grinned when he saw Lin Ran turning around.
"Ranran, let me take you back."
Lin Ran was a little puzzled.
"Why do you come back so often?"
If she remembered correctly, didn't this person just leave the morning before yesterday?
You're back after just one day?
"Didn't you say we should have more contact? If I don't come back more often, how can we have more contact?"
As he said this, he stretched out his palm towards Lin Ran, on which lay several bayberries quietly.
"Well, I remember when you were a kid, your second favorite fruit besides mulberries was bayberry."
Lin Ran's expression paused, but he still reached out to catch it.
"Thank you, Brother Qin."
Qin Jianye didn't notice Lin Ran's abnormality, but smiled and urged:
"Try it now, I always pick the darkest ones."
Just when Lin Ran was hesitating, Shi Yan came over.
He first nodded to Qin Jianye, then looked at Lin Ran.
"Comrade Lin, I'd like to visit your house to see the silkworm breeding room and maybe prepare some tools."
Lin Ran subconsciously wanted to refuse.
"Shi Zhiqing can go directly without telling me, and my dad is here too, you can go with him."
There was a hint of sadness in Shi Yan's eyes, and his tone was gloomy.
"I saw that the captain was busy and couldn't bear to disturb him, so I came to bother Comrade Lin. If Comrade Lin finds it troublesome, then forget it."
There was a strong sense of grievance in his words.
Lin Ran felt like she had heard it wrong.
Is this still the Shi Yan she knows?
This made her feel that he had gone a bit too far. He was just showing the way, and it was indeed a bit rude of him to go to someone else's house alone at night.
He nodded in agreement immediately.
"Then let's go now."
The three of them walked side by side on the way back, and whether intentionally or unintentionally, Lin Ran happened to walk between the two of them.
On the way, Shi Yan briefly introduced to Lin Ran the steps of raising silkworms and some of the things that were needed.
Although Lin Ran seldom spoke, the atmosphere between the two of them was very tacit, and it seemed difficult for others to interrupt.
Qin Jianye felt a little uncomfortable when he saw this, and he opened his mouth several times to interrupt but couldn't.
