At this time, Shi Yan, who was far away in the Tashan Brigade, had no idea that someone was planning to curry favor with him.
He was now regretting whether he had acted too hastily last night.
Otherwise, why would Lin Ran start avoiding him again today?
Was he scared by himself?
It seems that I need to be more careful in the future and not be too impatient.
However, Shi Yan was really overthinking it this time.
Lin Ran was not frightened by Shi Yan, but by her own subconscious reaction.
She felt that she needed to calm down for a while and look into her own heart.
Before that, she hadn't figured out how to face Shi Yan.
So forgive her for finally choosing to escape.
But her heart was still in turmoil, and Lin Ran couldn't calm down at all.
Forget it, I'd better find something to do to distract myself.
Lin Ran picked up the scorebook and went straight to the inspection.
She first came to Widow He, and seeing her digging the ground absent-mindedly, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart that this person could have endured and not come to find her until now.
Since she is not in a hurry, I will help add fuel to the fire.
Lin Ran walked to the ridge of the field next to her and saw Zhou Manman slacking off, digging the ground for a long time without moving.
At that moment, Lin Ran deliberately raised his voice and said:
"Zhou Zhiqing, do you want to see how far the people around you have come? They can't even do this little bit of work.
Fortunately, it was He Hua who went to the farm for reform. Otherwise, if it were you, you would probably have to undergo ideological education every day, and I don’t know how long it would take for the reform to end!
"What are you talking about? I didn't do anything wrong. Why should I go to a farm?
And I've been working diligently, I just worked a little slowly, don't blame me for that!"
Zhou Manman's eyes were a little evasive when she spoke, and she seemed to be lacking in confidence.
The movement here immediately attracted the attention of everyone around.
Even Widow He, who looked half dead, finally showed some reaction when she heard her daughter's name.
She turned her head and looked at Zhou Manman blankly.
Then the next second, strong hatred burst out in his eyes, and he rushed towards Zhou Manman with a shovel.
"It's all your fault! If it weren't for you, my daughter wouldn't have been taken away. It's all your fault!
You are such a troublemaker!
I'll beat you to death!"
"Ah...what are you doing! You lunatic!"
Seeing this, Zhou Manman was so scared that she immediately threw away the shovel and ran around the field.
While running, he did not forget to defend himself:
"Your daughter made a mistake and was arrested and sent to be reformed. What does it have to do with me?"
But Widow He was not willing to listen to these explanations at this time. Her mind was full of revenge for He Hua.
I wish I could hit Zhou Manman to death with a shovel.
But he was quickly subdued by everyone who reacted.
Looking at Zhou Manman who was bending over, holding her stomach and breathing heavily, a trace of pity flashed across Lin Ran's almond-shaped eyes.
Widow He is so useless that she couldn't even hit anyone.
Never mind, that wasn't her original intention.
It doesn't matter if I can't hit her, it's just a good way to provoke Widow He.
However, Lin Ran didn't expect Zhou Manman to be so helpful.
As soon as Zhou Manman recovered, she pointed at Widow He and shouted:
"Widow He, I won't bother with you this time. If you dare to attack me again next time, I will send you to the farm for reform.
Aren't you worried about your daughter?
It’s a good opportunity to go and accompany her.”
If she didn't feel a little guilty about He Hua, she would have made a scene just because Widow He pointed a shovel at her!
As expected, when these words were spoken, Widow He was so shocked that she fainted.
The effect was naturally very good. Early the next morning, just as Lin Ran went to work, Widow He quietly came over and said straight to the point:
"You said you have a way to save my daughter, is that true?"
"Of course it's true. What good would it be for me to lie to you?"
Lin Ran's answer rekindled hope in Widow He's desperate eyes, and she eagerly pulled Lin Ran's arm.
"Ran girl, for the sake of our long-standing neighborliness, please tell me how to save He Hua!"
Lin Ran sneered.
"Aunt He, have you forgotten what He Hua did to be sent to the farm for reform?"
Widow He's face stiffened for a moment when she heard this, but she soon thought of what to say.
"Ran girl, you misunderstood He Hua. She was framed. This was actually done by Accountant Zheng and Zhou Manman. It has nothing to do with my He Hua.
After all, you and He Hua grew up together, so you should understand your sister He Hua's character. She has never been to school, so how could she have such a brain?
She was just being used!
Please, save He Hua! She is truly innocent!"
Lin Ran deliberately pondered for a moment, and finally spoke again under Widow He's expectant gaze.
“But even if He Hua was being used by someone, if she didn’t have this idea, how could others have used her?
If that's the case, why should I bother saving someone who wants to harm me?"
Widow He saw that Lin Ran refused to help, so she had to tell the truth.
"It was Zhou Manman who lied to He Hua that Shi Zhiqing liked you. You also knew He Hua's feelings for Shi Zhiqing, so naturally she disliked you.
But she doesn't have the guts to do anything to you.
Later, Zhou Manman told her that there was a way to match her with Shi Zhiqing, and she agreed on a whim.
It just so happened that Accountant Zheng came again and wanted to bring Captain Lin down.
So the masterminds of this incident are actually Zhou Manman and Accountant Zheng.
He Hua really took the blame for them!"
However, although Widow He spoke with tears and snot, Lin Ran only believed half of it.
"You sound so innocent, but what about that time you colluded with Accountant Zheng to plot against my dad?"
She hasn't forgotten this!
Lin Ran's words successfully calmed Widow He, and her crying stopped abruptly.
She glanced at Lin Ran cautiously and tentatively denied:
"Ran girl, what are you talking about? I don't understand anything."
"Forget it if you don't understand. I'll leave first."
Lin Ran didn't want to spoil her, so she turned around and left without saying a word.
"Hey, Ran girl, don't go! I'm telling you something!"
Widow He was afraid that Lin Ran would really leave, so she gritted her teeth and admitted it.
"That last incident was my fault. I believed Accountant Zheng's lies. If you're angry, you can beat and scold me as much as you want, but He Hua was really wronged!
Besides, Accountant Zheng has tried to harm your family time and again, and you don't want to see him having a good time out there, do you? "
Seeing that the time was almost right, Lin Ran didn't bother to waste time talking to Widow He and directly stated his purpose.
"Of course not, so why don't you ask me for help?
The solution is to deal with Accountant Zheng just as you planned to deal with my dad last time. As long as I am satisfied, He Hua will be released naturally."
"You're kidding me!"
