Chapter 21 Little Follower



Su Le parked his bike in the yard and glanced at the kitchen. He didn't know how to cook... It was really a headache... If he didn't light the stove, Xu Jiaojiao would probably get suspicious...

I entered the space and ordered a bowl of Huainan beef vermicelli soup.

A bowl of steaming beef soup perfectly combines the deliciousness and nutrition of the ingredients. It tastes both rich in meaty flavor and refreshing in broth.

After eating and drinking, Su Le left the space and went to the brigade to get tools when the sun was not too scorching, preparing to go up the mountain to collect grass for the pigs.

Without those little guys today, the efficiency has been reduced by half.

Chen Di came over angrily, "Su Zhiqing! Do you still have any shame?"

Gossip is human nature, and soon everyone gathered around, discussing the matter.

Su Le's face darkened. "If you're sick, go see a doctor! Don't act crazy in front of me!"

Taking advantage of the crowd around him, Chen Di shouted loudly, "You embezzled Wanwan's rural expenses, and you still have the nerve to buy a bicycle? Wanwan herself is struggling."

Everyone started pointing fingers at Su Le. "How shameless! You're even greedy for other people's money!"

"Exactly. I thought her family was rich! Turns out she's squandering other people's money!"

Su Le sneered, "Who told you? Xia Wan? Ha. Ask her to come over and confront you!"

Chen Di rolled his eyes. "How dare you confront Wanwan? I just can't stand you bullying me like this! You want to write a letter to your master's father to fire Wanwan's father later, right? You wish! I can't stand it anymore, so I came to find you! Hand over the money immediately! Otherwise, I will write a letter to report your father!"

Su Le laughed angrily, "Haha, do you have any evidence to prove that I took it?"

Chen Di said angrily, "Wanwan already said that you took it, why are you still quibbling?"

Su Le asked back, "What evidence does she have that I took it? According to what you said, her father signed me up to go to the countryside. Didn't her father embezzle my money for going to the countryside?"

Chen Di hesitated, "Why would her father take your money?"

Su Le looked at her coldly. "Then how do you prove he didn't have it? Everyone knows that the fee for going to the countryside is collected on the day of registration."

Chen Di looked around and found that the wind direction had changed. Just as he was about to run out, Su Le shouted coldly, "You slandered me, apologize to me. Otherwise..." He stretched out his hand and raised it high.

Chen Di said sorry tremblingly and ran away.

When the villagers saw that there was no more excitement, they dispersed.

Su Le, with a dark face and a backpack, walked up the mountain, searching as he went, picking up firewood from time to time and putting it in his space. In a day or two, it would be November. It was almost winter, and the more firewood, the better, as it would keep him warm.

It took Su Le two hours to fill a basket, but there was quite a lot of firewood!

I had no choice but to hand in one basket first.

Li Zichen said to Wang Lan and Chen Qing, "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law. I'm taking Guang Zongyaozu up the mountain to collect grass for pigs."

Wang Lan frowned and asked, "Picking pig grass at this time?"

Chen Qing also said, "There will be no farm work soon. Why would we just finish up today and cut grass for the pigs?"

Li Zichen glanced at Su Le who was passing by the door and said, "Let's go out for a walk. Maybe we can find some wild game. We can also have a good winter."

Wang Lan and Chen Qing looked at him suspiciously. Their intuition told them that this was definitely not what their fifth brother said.

At this time, Li Yaozu ran out with a bowl in his hand, "Sister Su, Sister Su!"

Su Le was also delighted, "Little guy, are you eating?"

Li Yaozu said to Su Le, "Sister Su, I'm not a kid! My name is Li Yaozu!"

Su Le replied, "Okay, okay! Yaozu, little guy!"

Li Yaozu snorted twice, looked at her carrying the basket, and asked, "Sister Su, are you going to pick grass for the pigs?"

Su Le nodded, "Yes, go back and eat!"

Li Yaozu ran home with the bowl in his arms, took two mouthfuls of rice, put the bowl on the table, and was about to run out.

Chen Qing scolded, "Li Yaozu! Who allowed you to waste food? Come here and finish your meal!"

It's rare that my family cooked rice today! Usually we have multi-grain steamed buns, porridge, and wowotou.

Li Yaozu was extremely anxious, "Mom! I'll come back and eat later!"

Chen Qing went up and twisted his ear, "Where are you going?"

Li Yaozu quickly shouted, "I'm going to help Sister Su pick grass for the pigs!"

Chen Qing released his hand and looked at Li Zichen, "Fifth brother, I'm afraid this wasn't what you were thinking just now, was it?"

Li Zichen coughed twice, "Second sister-in-law, you're overthinking it!"

Li Guangzong quickly finished his meal, not leaving a single grain of rice. "Mom! I'm going too!"

Wang Lan nodded.

Li Guangzong and Li Yaozu trotted after Su Le.

"Sister Su! Sister Su! Wait for us!" the two shouted from behind.

Su Le stopped and asked, "Aren't you guys having dinner? Go back!"

Li Yaozu said, "Sister Su, we're done eating, let's go!"

Su Leyou was touched! He pretended to take out two meat buns from his backpack and handed them to them. "Eat quickly, so you can help me with the work after you are full!"

Li Guangzong and Li Yaozu's eyes lit up. They took the buns and nodded vigorously, "Yes! Thank you, Sister Su!"

Wang Lan and Chen Qing both set their sights on Li Zichen!

Li Zichen continued to eat slowly.

Chen Qing smiled and said, "Fifth brother, what is so attractive about Su Zhiqing? The two little brats at home can't walk when they see her."

Li Zichen said calmly, "I don't know either."

Wang Lan said, "Boss Li, we haven't had meat at home for a long time. How about..."

Li Zichen put down his bowl and chopsticks, "Sister-in-law, I'm not very experienced in hunting wild game, so I'll go!"

After saying that, he got up and went out.

Chen Qing and Wang Lan looked at each other and smiled.

Su Le followed the two little guys to find a large field of pig grass, and the two remaining baskets for today were found.

The two little guys were full of energy after eating the meat buns!

Li Zichen went up the mountain and when he reached the edge of the mountain, he saw a couple of pigs chatting and laughing, and cutting grass for pigs with great effort.

Don't bother, I still have to hunt some game to bring back. Look around.

Su Le went down to see him off once, then continued up the mountain.

"Sister Su! Uncle caught a hare!" Li Yaozu waved at Su Le.

Su Le looked at Li Zichen expressionlessly, then said to Li Yaozu with a smile, "Then you can have meat to eat tonight!"

Li Zichen felt strangely uneasy. Even if Su Le had disliked him before, he could still argue with him. But today, it was as if he hadn't even noticed him.

Su Le continued to cut grass for the pigs, hoping to finish it sooner and end it sooner!

Li Guangzong stopped watching the rabbits and helped cut grass for the pigs. Li Yaozu took a look and continued to help.

It took the three of them half an hour to fill the backpack.

Su Le gave them six egg cakes and said, "Bye, little ones."

Li Guangzong and Li Yaozu followed her, leaving Li Zichen standing alone.

Su Le parted ways at their doorstep. The two little guys took the egg cake and shared it with their brothers and sisters at home, each of them got half a piece.

Li Zichen returned home carrying the rabbit and asked Yao Cuifang, "Mom, what happened this morning?"

Yao Cuifang recounted what happened in the morning.

Li Zichen pondered for a moment. Could it be that she thought he had someone he liked? Women were truly troublesome creatures. If they were his soldiers, they would have been tamed long ago.
