Holding He Hongxiu's hand, Jiang Yan said affectionately, "Thank you, sister-in-law. You came with me even though you knew it was not a good thing."
"You mean well, too."
He Hongxiu is also a girl from the countryside. How could she not know how difficult life is for a girl without anyone to support her?
"Don't worry, sister-in-law. This matter is not difficult to handle."
Without actual evidence, Jiang Yan would not take the initiative to cause trouble, but it would be possible to control a group of children and make the villagers wary.
Seeing Jiang Yan's confident look, He Hongxiu said with a smile: "It's OK as long as you know what's going on. Bring it back and I'll support you."
As they were talking, everyone walked into the village, and the children cheered loudly when they saw their parents working in the fields.

So poor!
Too poor.
Our village is so poor. Please, can a pie fall from the sky and kill me?
Just when I was feeling depressed, the office door was suddenly pushed open.
The two military wives whom I had just met yesterday came in with Zhou Yaozu, the most mischievous boy in the village. It was obvious that they were here to call for punishment.
Zhang Ruidong stood up from the stool and said, "You little bastard, have you done something bad again? I have to teach you a lesson today on behalf of your parents. You just keep getting into trouble every day."
"Grandpa Secretary, I was wrong. I really know I was wrong."
