He Ting shook his head: "There's something wrong with Yin Jiaming. The county leader is so close to Yin Jiaming in private, it's impossible that there is no problem with him."

"What's wrong with Yin Jiaming?"

He Ting gave Shen Junqian a look, and Shen Junqian moved closer to He Ting, and the two of them whispered for a long time.

After learning the situation from He Ting, Shen Junqian reacted quickly.

"I do know someone in the county public security bureau. If Yin Jiaming has other purposes in private contact with the person in charge of geological disasters, then I can't cover it up. I have to go to the provincial capital to find someone."

The reason why Shen Junqian was able to get along well in both the county and the provincial capital was because he had saved a big shot in the provincial capital.

He has never asked anyone to do anything for him.

But Shen Junqian knew that the reason why he could get along so smoothly was partly because of that person's support.

Originally, he didn't want to use this relationship easily. This matter was so big that it could only be handled with the protection of that big shot.

"Brother Ting, I'll transport the rabbit back this afternoon and rush to the provincial capital to deliver some things to someone in the south."

During the spring plowing and sowing season, the fields of Xiangyang Brigade were full of people.

In addition to going up the mountain to collect medicinal herbs, some of the brigade members who went out to work were responsible for driving oxen to plow the fields, and some were responsible for harvesting carrots in the dry land. The carrots were planted for rabbits to eat.

It is soon time to plant sweet potatoes, so large areas of dry land need to be cleared out to plant sweet potatoes.

The brigade has to plant a lot of sweet potatoes every year. The grain harvested from the rice fields is not enough, so many members will scrape the sweet potatoes distributed to their families into strips and dry them in the sun. The starch from washing the sweet potato shreds can also be made into sweet potato flour.

When cooking rice, add sweet potato flour into the rice and cook it together. This will make the rice seem larger in portion and filling enough to provide a year's worth of food.

Sweet potatoes can be used as food for humans and can also be fed to rabbits. Even the sweet potato leaves are not wasted and can be fed to rabbits, so the team will plant more sweet potatoes this year.

Considering that Feng Shishi had just recovered from a serious illness, Tang Yunling, the scorer, did not assign her any heavy work and asked her to pull radishes with a few aunts.

This job looks easy, but for Feng Shishi, it was tiring to bend over and pull carrots in the field. After pulling for a while, she was so tired that she was out of breath and her waist was sore.

Because she was always sick and couldn't work, she gained a reputation as a lazy person in the brigade.

Now that she had recovered from her illness, Feng Shishi didn't want to be looked down upon and decided to work hard. She had just straightened up and rubbed her waist, about to continue working, when she saw Zhou Yanfeng walking towards her on the edge of the field.

When Feng Shishi saw clearly who was following Zhou Yanfeng, her eyes widened.

When in Rome, do as the Romans do!

Because she had to work, Feng Shishi wore a dark homespun dress. She looked dusty and wore two sleeves on her wrists to avoid getting her sleeves dirty. Except for her thinner figure, she looked no different from the other country aunties.

When I was pulling carrots, my hands were covered in mud and my face was scratched.

Seeing his beloved girl so tired that she couldn't even straighten her back, Li Rui felt so distressed that his eyes throbbed with tears, even though he was a grown man.

He stood on the edge of the field and stretched out his hand to Feng Shishi: "Stop working, I'll pull you up."

Feng Shishi accepted the chocolate dried mangoes and corduroy fabric sent by Li Ruicai, and she also lied to He Ting that they were sent by her uncle because she didn't want to have anything to do with Li Ruicai.

Although she collected the things, she still hated Li Ruicai for writing a letter to tell Liu Cuifang the news of her family's accident.

She is afraid that her secrets will be exposed, so she has to please Liu Cuifang.

Of course, the reason why she was willing to give things to Liu Cuifang was not just this, but also because Liu Cuifang had helped her, so she regarded Liu Cuifang as her best friend.

In short, Feng Shishi still blamed Li Ruicai for being nosy.

Otherwise, the news of her family's accident would have been known to no one as she went to the countryside as an educated youth.

Even though Li Ruicai came from afar to appear in front of her, Feng Shishi didn't want to pay attention to her.

"Why are you here? I'm busy."

Feng Shishi rolled her eyes at him in dissatisfaction: "Can't you see I'm working?"

Seeing that Feng Shishi refused to go up to the edge of the field, Li Rui jumped down into the field without saying a word and started pulling out the carrots she was responsible for.

The aunties and sisters who were pulling radishes with me, look here.

Feng Shishi was annoyed: "Li Ruicai, what are you doing?"

"Help you with your work!"

Li Ruicai said, "After you finish your work, come with me to my sister-in-law's house for dinner."

Feng Shishi also asked where her sister-in-law came from?

Li Ruicai added: "He Ting's family."

When Feng Shishi heard that she could go to He Ting's house for dinner, her eyes lit up.

But when she thought that it was Lu Baiwei who pulled her back from the brink of death, her eyes dimmed.

She said to Li Ruicai angrily: "No."

Zhou Yanfeng couldn't bear it anymore!

Although I didn't like Li Ruicai before, he is from the same compound after all.

For Feng Shishi, this man even asked for leave from the army and came all the way to the Xiangyang Brigade.

Seeing that Feng Shishi was unmoved, she had no intention of paying any attention to Li Ruicai.

He chimed in: "You really aren't going?"

"You still owe my sister-in-law medical expenses. Your work points won't be enough to deduct by the end of the year. You must go to the clinic to pay for the medical expenses later."

Feng Shishi forgot about this.

When Li Ruicai was being chased for medical expenses by Zhou Yanfeng, she pulled up a carrot to vent her anger.

"Just go, am I the one who doesn't pay the debt?"

"Oh, just go ahead!"

Zhou Yanfeng picked up the sack thrown on the edge of the field and said, "I still have to deliver the vegetables to the clinic. I'll ask my daughter Lingling to help with the cooking."

"I'll leave Li Ruicai to you. You can pay the medical expenses later and take Li Ruicai to my brother Ting's place for dinner."

"For Li Ruicai's sake, I'll let you come and have a meal."

Who wants to go to Lu Baiwei's house for a free meal?

Zhou Yanfeng left Li Ruicai behind and walked away whistling.

Feng Shishi was very angry.

She clenched her fist and waved it in the direction Zhou Yanfeng left.

When Li Ruicai saw Feng Shishi so lively, he not only did not blame her for ignoring him, but also smiled foolishly.

The aunties and sisters who were pulling radishes together made eyes and asked curiously.

"Feng Zhiqing, is he your boyfriend?"

"no!"

Feng Shishi responded angrily: "Who is dating him?"

Li Ruicai smiled innocently at the aunties and sisters, without saying whether they were a couple or not.

Someone said that he and Feng Shishi were in a relationship, and Li Ruicai was very pleased to hear this.

In the fields, Li Ruicai was helping Feng Shishi pull radishes. Zhou Yanfeng called Tang Yunling and carried a sack of things to the brigade clinic.

"Sister-in-law, Shen Junqian has returned from the south. This is what he brought back."

Zhou Yanfeng told Lu Baiwei: "By the way, Li Ruicai came here with Shen Junqian. Brother Ting asked him to come to our house for dinner, and there are also vegetables bought by Shen Junqian."

"I'll let Lingling help you cook. I'll be there to help and you can just give instructions from the side."

Lu Baiwei was shocked to learn that Li Ruicai came from the south following Shen Junqian's car.
