Shen Qiqi chuckled, a hint of sarcasm in her tone, "The old lady is so good at singing, reciting, acting and fighting. It's a shame that she doesn't go to the opera. Taking care of the elderly? Why is it so funny when you say this?" She looked around, her eyes sharp, "So you two elders are so precious that only the eldest and second sisters-in-law can serve you, while I work so hard and become a decoration?"
Mrs. Lu was so choked by Shen Qiqi's retort that she rolled her eyes and almost couldn't breathe.
"You...you girl, how can you talk to an elder like that! When did we ever say..."
"You didn't say it, but you did it!" Shen Qiqi interrupted her without hesitation, pulling out a wrinkled little notebook from her pocket. "Old lady, your memory is not good, let me help you recall. On the third day of March, I boiled medicine for you for three days, but you thought it was too bitter and didn't drink a single drop. In the end, all the medicine went to your dog. On the fifteenth day of March, I got up early to make steamed egg custard for you, but you said you had no appetite and gave it to your eldest sister-in-law's child..."
Shen Qiqi recounted the things she had done for the two elderly people one by one, each one clearly and concisely, with the time and details, and Mrs. Lu's face turned pale and blue as she listened.
Li and Zhang on the side could no longer sit still. They had not expected that Shen Qiqi would have this trick!
"You...you are slandering me!" Old Mrs. Lu pointed at Shen Qiqi angrily, but she couldn't refute it for a long time.
After all, what Shen Qiqi said was the truth, and she couldn't afford to quibble.
Shen Qiqi closed the notebook and looked at her with a half-smile. "Slander? Old lady, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. If you think I remembered it wrong, we can confront each other one by one. Fortunately, the village chief is here too, let him judge for us."
Mrs. Lu's face completely darkened. She didn't expect Shen Qiqi to be so difficult and not play by the rules at all.
This girl is such a troublemaker!
Her eyes rolled around, trying to find a way to break the deadlock.
"Even if you took care of us, so what? The eldest and second eldest brothers' families took care of us even more! What you did was nothing at all!" Old Mrs. Lu struggled desperately, trying to create a tense atmosphere in an attempt to save the situation.
Shen Qiqi didn't buy her tricks and snorted coldly, "Old lady, your skill in shifting the blame is really perfect. I admit defeat. Okay, since you want to compete, then let's compete to see who has contributed more to this family..." She paused, her eyes fell on Lu Qing, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly, "Brother Qing, what do you think?"
Lu Qing held Shen Qiqi's hand and gave her a firm look.
"I believe you." These three short words were full of power and gave Shen Qiqi infinite courage.
Old Mrs. Lu looked at the two people's tightly clasped hands, and her heart was burning with anger, but she was helpless.
She gritted her teeth and glared at Shen Qiqi fiercely, "Okay, okay! You just wait for me!" After saying that, she stood up abruptly and left in a huff.
Seeing this, Li and Zhang did not dare to stay any longer and followed him out in shame.
In the meeting room, only Shen Qiqi, Lu Qing and Village Chief Zhang were left.
The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment.
Village chief Zhang looked at the young man in front of him, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.
This Shen Qiqi is really not simple...
Village chief Zhang cleared his throat and broke the silence.
"Qiqi girl, the records in your little notebook are so detailed! It seems that you have suffered a lot of grievances!" He shook his head with emotion. It has been a long time since Old Lady Lu has been partial to her. Who in the village doesn't know it?
It's just a family matter, outsiders shouldn't interfere.
Shen Qiqi smiled bitterly, "Village Chief, I have no choice!
You have to leave yourself a way out, right?
"
Village chief Zhang nodded to show his understanding.
"Lu Qing, your wife is right. Respecting the elderly and loving the young is a must, but you can't blindly show favoritism. You three families have all contributed to this family, so resources should be distributed fairly. The actions of the old lady and the eldest and second sisters-in-law are indeed inappropriate."
When they heard the village chief finally express his opinion, the faces of Mrs. Lu and her two sisters-in-law who were eavesdropping outside the door turned pale in an instant.
They didn't expect that Shen Qiqi actually brought in reinforcements and even got the village chief to stand on her side!
Now what a problem! Not only did I lose the rice, but I also lost my wife and my army!
Lu Qing held Shen Qiqi's hand tightly, his eyes full of joy and love. "Qiqi, thank you."
Shen Qiqi responded with a sweet smile, "What are you thanking me for? A husband and wife of one mind can cut through metal like a knife!" She winked playfully, and Lu Qing's heart melted.
Village chief Zhang smiled with relief as he looked at the loving couple.
"Okay, now that the matter is resolved, I'll be going back now. From now on, if you have any problems, just come to me. Don't keep it bottled up."
"Thank you, Village Chief!" Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing said in unison.
After sending Village Chief Zhang away, Shen Qiqi stretched and said with ease: "Finally it's done! Now the world is peaceful!"
Lu Qing looked at her lovingly, "Thank you for your hard work today."
Shen Qiqi waved her hands. "It's not hard. For our happy life, this little thing is nothing!" She suddenly thought of something, her eyes rolled, and she said to Lu Qing mysteriously, "Brother Qing, I have another idea..."
Shen Qiqi smiled slyly, leaned close to Lu Qing's ear, and whispered, "Brother Qing, how about we make a concerted effort and pursue the victory?"
Lu Qing raised his eyebrows and asked with interest, "Oh? Qiqi, do you have any other ideas?"
Shen Qiqi cleared her throat and shouted to the outside of the door: "Old lady, eldest sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, now that things have been brought to light, let's discuss something else!"
