Lin Laosan's action made Accountant Zheng even more embarrassed than Lin Ran's soft knife. His face turned blue and red, and he could only put on a stiff face and try to smooth things over.
"Look at how impatient the third brother is. I just asked a question and he got so anxious."
"You too, hurry up! I'm worried that if we're any later, the Third Brother will overthrow us."
Lin Weiguo finally spoke at this time.
"Zheng Huiji, what you said is too exaggerated. You have all watched my children grow up. Don't you understand the third child's personality?"
"Today's situation is understandable. After all, who wouldn't be furious when their child is wronged?"
When Accountant Zheng heard this, his eyes darkened, but he still had to force a smile on his face.
"Today's incident is my fault. I just happened to see the scorebook and was curious. I didn't consider the occasion and just blurted out a question. I forgot that young men are grown up and care about their reputation."
Up to now, no one has come forward to testify for Lin Lao San.
After all, no one is stupid. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for Accountant Zheng if he stood up at this time?
It is obvious that two tigers are fighting each other now, so it is better for these small shrimps to stay as far away as possible.
But there is one person who doesn't care, that's Zhou Manman. She is not afraid of offending people at all.
And the person she hates the most now is Zheng Daya, even more than Lin Ran.
Especially when she thought about how Zheng Daya had been pestering Shi Yan all day yesterday, she became extremely jealous.
She knew that if she didn't do something, Zheng Daya might ask to share the spoils with Shi Yan today, so when everyone remained silent, she took a step forward.
"Accountant Zheng, I think instead of worrying about others being partial, you should look after your own family."
When had Accountant Zheng ever been accused like this? He flew into a rage.
"Zhou Zhiqing, what do you mean by this?"
Zhou Manman crossed her arms, raised her neck and looked disdainful.
"It's exactly what it says. Lin Laosan did work all day yesterday. Everyone here can testify to that."
"If you doubt this, you might as well ask your eldest daughter how she usually abuses her power in your name."
Accountant Zheng's face turned pale when he heard this, and he looked at Zhou Manman with a murderous look.
"Zhou Zhiqing, please be careful with your words. My daughter is not young anymore and hasn't had to work for a long time. I only came out to help out yesterday because I saw the fields were busy."
"If there is anything that I have not done well, please bear with me."
Zhou Manman couldn't help but curl her lips, her tone contemptuous:
"What do you mean by coming out to help? I think you're here to seduce men, right?"
"We didn't want to be in her group, but she was so arrogant that she even threatened us by saying her dad was an accountant. So it's clear who was being partial!"
Accountant Zheng's face turned completely black. He gritted his teeth and resisted the urge to curse.
But even Lin Weiguo who was beside him could hear the grinding sound of his teeth, which showed that he was very angry.
Accountant Zheng took a long time to calm down, but he didn't want to see Zhou Manman, so he turned to look at Lin Weiguo.
"Captain, it seems I was indeed the one who misspoke and misunderstood my third nephew just now. This is my fault. I'm not wrong in being my niece Ranran's scorekeeper. Look, it's getting late now. Should we start work?"
Lin Weiguo saw that it was indeed getting late and he didn't have time to waste any more time with Accountant Zheng, so he immediately announced that everyone should start working.
But Zhou Manman was not happy because her goal had not been achieved yet.
"Wait a minute, Accountant Zheng, you haven't answered me yet. What if Zheng Daya uses your name to force others to team up with her?"
Accountant Zheng, who was about to sneak away, had to stop when he heard this and tried to maintain his usual smiling expression.
"Don't worry, Zhou Zhiqing. That must be my daughter, Daya, joking with you."
"If you don't like her, don't bother with her at all. Teaming up is something that must be done with mutual consent. If someone is willing, then there's no such thing as coercion."
As he said this, he looked at Shi Yan meaningfully.
"Don't you agree? Shi Zhiqing?"
When Shi Yan heard this, he remembered the day before yesterday when he was poisoned by Zheng Daya's pretentiousness. His expression immediately turned cold. He rarely felt that Zhou Manman had done a good thing, and at this time he nodded directly in agreement.
"To prevent further gossip like this, I think it would be better to have gay men and young lesbians work separately."
Even a fool could hear the rejection in Shi Yan's words.
Being rejected in public, Accountant Zheng was completely humiliated. He didn't care about disguising himself and just walked away with a grim face.
Even Zheng Daya was too embarrassed to stay. She looked at Shi Yan resentfully and ran away crying.
Only after the father and daughter walked away did discussions begin to be heard from the crowd.
"I said that Lin Ran didn't look like that kind of person. After all, she was taught by the captain. Sure enough, she was right."
"Do you think Accountant Zheng is deliberately trying to find fault with Miss Lin Ran? But Accountant Zheng is usually a nice person, so it must be unintentional, right?"
"Who knows? I heard that Accountant Zheng also wanted the scorekeeper position before. I wonder if it was given to Zheng Daya. Maybe she feels a little uncomfortable because of this."
"Never mind. It's none of our business anyway. It doesn't matter who's the scorekeeper, as long as the work points are recorded fairly."
“…”
As everyone was talking, the topic turned to Lin Laosan and Zheng Daya.
"What do you think happened to Lin Laosan yesterday? Why did he suddenly become so diligent?"
