Chapter 385 Let’s Make Chive Boxes and Eat Them
Lin Zhushui's show of weakness instantly aroused the anger of Qian Kai and Weng Huiling. Originally, Jiang Wanwan made them quite unhappy, but after Lin Zhushui said this, they instantly thought of Jiang Wanwan as an unforgivable evildoer.
Weng Huiling narrowed her eyes and said, "She is a vindictive person. Just think about it, we just ignored her for a few days, and she smiled and pretended to be generous, but she immediately turned around and bit us."
"well……"
"It's my fault that I got you into trouble. If it weren't for me, she wouldn't have held a grudge against you and taken revenge on you. Leave this matter to me. I'll go talk to her and I must give you an explanation."
Lin Zhushui weakly held Weng Huiling and said, "Sister Ling, please don't be like this... I'm fine with being wronged, but you were bullied by her, don't... don't let her bully you again, I don't want people to look down on you anymore."
The more she said this, the more upset Weng Huiling felt: "I have always treated you as my sister. You have been wronged for me. How can I ignore it? Don't say anything. No one can stop me today."
Weng Huiling came to Jiang Wanwan's office in a rage, and without knocking, she opened the door and barged in.
"Jiang Wanwan, what do you mean? I was the one who took the lead in leaving you out in the cold last time. It has nothing to do with them. If you want revenge, just come after me."
Jiang Wanwan had expected her to come. Sometimes it is difficult for people who make decisions, just like repairing glasses. If the force is too loose, the screws cannot be tightened and are easy to loosen. If the force is too strong, the glasses may break easily.
"Sister Weng, calm down. Look how angry you are. Sit down and have some water."
Here it comes again, Jiang Wanwan's sarcastic tone, as if she has something big in her stomach, is back! ! !
Maggie Cheung really hated the tone of her voice, which made her seem so unreasonable.
"Don't talk nonsense to me, Jiang. If you dare to continue bullying them, I will go to your house and kill you."
Jiang Wanwan was amused and said to the outside: "Guo Yao, bring a glass of water to Sister Weng."
Guo Yao brought over some brewed tea, it was made from coarse tea leaves, very dark in color and a bit astringent in taste, but this is what everyone in this area drinks, it's very refreshing. In the summer, have a cup of hot or warm tea, it won't make you feel so dry after drinking it.
Weng Huiling sat down and gulped down a cup of wine.
After she finished drinking, Jiang Wanwan said, "Sister Weng, I didn't embarrass them. I am a person who likes to exchange courtesy. Last time you ignored me for a few days, I ignored you for a few days. If I were not the acting factory director, I might not even bother to pay attention to you."
Weng Huiling found it irritating: "Why are you pretending to be so noble?"
"Then you are wronging me. I am not the factory director, so how can I care about you? I am very busy. I left you alone for a few days because I have to convince the people. Otherwise, if everyone follows your example, we might as well close the farm and let everyone starve to death."
"I know you're worried about me, a young man, working. You said you'd quit, but that gives me an opportunity to take advantage of you."
"I really don't mean to embarrass them this time. I recently heard that our area will have heavy rain in the next two days. Our military region is surrounded by mountains on three sides. I am afraid of mountain torrents and earthquakes, so I want to purchase some emergency supplies. Our military region has a limited amount of money, and there are many places to spend money in early spring. I calculated that only the auditorium and the club can save expenses."
"I just checked with the weather station again. It's true. If you don't believe me, go ask."
Weng Huiling felt that even if Jiang Wanwan was a fool, she would not come up with such an excuse. There was only one possibility, it was true...
"Why do you think I would believe you?"
She thought about it carefully and realized that even if Jiang Wanwan left her alone, she had no intention of humiliating her.
Jiang Wanwan: "First of all, my time is limited. I have to memorize books for the college entrance examination and I am also busy with the Goose Factory Chicken Coop. How can I have time to argue with you every day?"
"Secondly, you're not a bad person. The worst thing you can think of is to leave it alone for a few days. You're a silly girl who has things out in the open. I'll naturally say whatever I want to say. You won't understand if I'm being hypocritical."
These words made Weng Huiling feel a little comfortable, but also a little uncomfortable.
Jiang Wanwan: "If nothing happens, allocate funds to them immediately."
Weng Huiling thought about it and her anger subsided.
"What you said makes sense. No matter what happens, the military district's affairs are the most important. So, I'll explain this to them later. By the way, do you think the crops on the second and fourth farms should continue as before?"
Jiang Wanwan hesitated for a moment and said, "Reduce it by one third."
Weng Huiling thought about it again, felt that it made sense, and did as she said.
After Weng Huiling left, Jiang Wanwan went to the chicken coop and goose factory. Old Mrs. Shen saw that she looked serious.
"What's wrong girl?"
Jiang Wanwan observed the terrain. Even if there was a mountain torrent, the flood and mudslide would not reach this land. She was afraid that the flood tide would be too high. "The news is that there is a lot of rain here this year."
Old Master Shen understood: "The girls are afraid that it will rain too much and be cold, so they gathered here and drowned the chickens and geese."
"The water is cold, and chickens, ducks, and geese may not be able to handle it."
This is what Jiang Wanwan meant: "We need to find a way to prevent it in advance."
Old Master Shen put down his pipe, opened the door of the goose house and went in. The goslings were fed and slept. In the morning, Shen Dazhu and Shen Erzhu went to the mountainside to cut a lot of bitter wheat and ryegrass, as well as some weeds. They chopped the cut grass with a cleaver and fed the geese.
Chen Tian told her younger brothers and sisters that they would catch grasshoppers and insects to feed the chickens and geese during the summer vacation, and they wanted to raise the geese to be fat.
The Shen family, young and old, men, women, and children, all regard these geese as their eyes.
Old Master Shen took a look and said, "Fortunately, the goose house was built high. We can nail boards underneath to make a platform and spread straw on top. When there is a flood, we can drive the geese up there. In the chicken house, we can nail the chicken wheels higher and build more platforms."
Jiang Wanwan thought this was a good idea: "Thank you for your hard work, Grandpa. If you need any materials, just tell Secretary Wei and ask her to get them for you."
Old Lady Shen heard about the military district: "Are those people still giving you trouble?"
Jiang Wanwan: "Weng Huiling is not scary. What's scary is Lin Zhushui. She pretends to be weak and controls people's hearts. Most of those things were instigated by her."
Old Lady Shen nodded, "That's right. Flowers don't necessarily smell good, and people who are good at talking don't necessarily do things well. I've seen Lin Zhushui a few times. She looks like she has honey on her lips, but she's actually a snake in her mouth. Weng Huiling doesn't have much brains. She has some ambitions but no brains, so it's easy for people to take advantage of her. You did the right thing by not going against Weng Huiling all the time. Weng Huiling's gun has been soaked in water and can't be used. Lin Zhushui has no other tricks."
Mr. Shen smiled and nodded: "Listen to your grandma, no one knows these things more thoroughly than your grandma."
Old Lady Shen gave him a glare and turned to walk towards home: "Don't talk nonsense if you don't know how to speak. Granddaughter-in-law, do you want to eat leek dumplings? The first batch of leeks has come down, and the old sisters from the nursery sent me some. Let's make some leek dumplings?"
