When Lu Wei came back with the fish triumphantly, Fu Baoer and the others had already stewed a pot of fish, which was served with baked corn tortillas. It was so delicious.
Tian Tian had already scrubbed the pot clean, determined not to let Lu Wei get any advantage after she came back. But no one expected that Lu Wei actually caught a fish. If you ignore her wet clothes, it was really something to be proud of.
Lu Wei snorted coldly, handed the fish to Sun Da Nv behind him, asked her to cook, and went back to change his clothes, then lay down in the quilt, just waiting for dinner.
Fu Baoer and Sun Danniu's eyes met in the air and then moved away. Over the past year or so, the two had almost no communication, but every time they met, there seemed to be invisible sparks bursting between them.
Sun Da Nv had never killed a fish before, nor had she processed fish scales and internal organs. She was a little at a loss and had several cuts on her hands. Tian Tian couldn't bear to see it, so she went up to help. Later, Tian Tian didn't take care of the work of stewing the fish. Sun Da Nv still didn't say a word, not even a thank you. Sometimes Tian Tian wondered if Sun Da Nv was a mute, why had she never seen her speak before.
Smelling the fish, Lu Wei also felt hungry, so she got up and ate at another small table with Sun Danniu. However, the fish stew they had was far inferior to the one at the next table in terms of color, taste, and texture.
In order to entertain Fu Baoer, Tian Tian not only stewed fish, but also fried a few dishes. When Jiang Fengxia heard that her granddaughter would not come home for a visit, she brought some meat, eggs and vegetables from her home and private plot. Although everyone tried to refuse, the old lady was very determined and insisted on keeping them, so they had to accept them shamelessly.
So the meal on their table could be said to be very sumptuous, and it was the best meal they had eaten in the past few months. However, there was only a bowl of fish in front of Lu Wei and Sun Danniu. Comparison is the thief of joy, and Lu Wei immediately lost his appetite.
There was laughter and chatter at the next table, and the atmosphere was bustling. The two people at this table looked at each other in silence. The contrast was too stark. Halfway through the meal, Li Ying came over, grabbed Sun Danniu's ear, and went home. She also took away the other fish Sun Danniu had caught. Lu Wei was so angry that she was gasping for breath and could no longer stay. She left the table full of food and went back to the house crying.
Fu Baoer actually admires Sun Danniu very much. She insists on coming here to cook and eat every day, and then gets beaten by Li Ying when she returns home. It can be seen how hungry she is. However, these two people are worse than the other and deserve to torture each other.
But the other educated youth did not know what had happened in Qingshan Village before.
"Ah, this Sun Da Niu is really pitiful. She has become so miserable just for a meal." Li Jiawei shook her head, not understanding why there are such cruel people in the world.
Fu Baoer shrugged her shoulders. There must be something hateful about pitiful people. This is very reasonable. It’s just that she didn’t want to gossip about Sun Danniu with others.
After the meal, Fu Baoer said goodbye and went home. The four male educated youth cleaned up the mess together. Facing the leftovers on the table next to them, everyone pretended not to see them. What they didn't expect was that after a while, Sun Danniu came back again, put away all the things, washed the pots and pans, and cleaned the yard. She also went into the house and talked to Lu Wei for a while. Finally, she came out with the clothes that Lu Wei was wearing today, and squatted in the yard to wash clothes silently.
Her actions were amazing. She was really good at working quietly. But no one knew what she and Lu Wei talked about in the room. Tian Tian and Li Jiawei had no interest in eavesdropping. When Sun Danniu said that she wanted to be alone with Lu Wei for a while, they came out on their own initiative.
It's quite curious that Sun Danniu can actually speak.
......
On the day of grain delivery, Chen Zhifang and Wang Youtian were not in the village. Coincidentally, Fu Baoer was not there either. Sun Danniu did not go to school and found Lu Wei who was still sleeping. There was no one in the yard at this time, so the two could talk without worry.
"Have you thought about what I said last time?" Sun Danniu had no choice but to look for Lu Wei. She could not do anything to the village by herself. But Lu Wei was different. She had two relatives who were workers in the city.
Lu Wei was woken up, still in a bad mood. When she heard this, she didn't even think about lowering her voice: "I sent the letter a long time ago. If nothing unexpected happens, someone will come to investigate in the next two days."
"But is what you said reliable?" Lu Wei was still a little nervous. "You haven't caught any evidence. It's just a guess. If you are wrong, I'm afraid it will implicate my uncle."
Sun Danniu looked down on Lu Wei in her heart, calling him a fool. If she had evidence, she wouldn't have come to you to be the first to speak out, but that's not what she said.
"I'm 80% sure about this matter. If the captain and secretary take it as a big deal, it must not be something that follows the rules. The report will definitely be successful." Sun Danniu was not shooting in the dark. She had been observing for a long time. On the first and fifteenth day of every month, Chen Zhifang or Wang Youtian would take one of the people who appeared that night and drive an ox cart into the city before dawn.
Once she hid in a ditch by the roadside for a whole night and was bitten by autumn mosquitoes all over her body. Finally, she waited for these people. That day, Chen Zhifang brought Erzhuzi's father into the city. Each of them carried a large backpack, covered tightly. From their conversation, Sun Danniu vaguely heard the words "a lot of goods" and "money". At that moment, she immediately understood what business the village was secretly doing.
She didn't want to report it at first, but Sun Danniu thought about it and realized that no matter what the village did, she would not get any benefit. So why should she watch others enjoy the good life? It would be better for her to go to hell together.
When Lu Wei heard Sun Danniu say this, she felt relieved. As long as there was a problem, it would be good. If her uncle successfully reported it, it would be a great achievement, and she might have the opportunity to leave Qingshan Village and return to the city.
Just as the two were immersed in their own thoughts, there was a slight noise suddenly coming from outside the door, as if a branch under the window was stepped on and broken. Sun Danniu was startled and quickly pushed open the door to look outside.
"..." Sun Danniu's uneasy heart settled down. Outside the door, Fu Baoer's beloved dog was stepping on a broken branch and making an attacking gesture towards her. It turned out that the dog was running towards her.
Lu Wei also breathed a sigh of relief. The dog was fine. Hopefully, no one heard it, or they would be in big trouble. "Go away, go play somewhere else!"
Heiwa barked twice before leaving. Sun Danniu and Lu Wei turned around and went back into the house, but only a minute later, Sun Danniu suddenly opened the window and looked out. The yard was quiet, as if no one had appeared. Only then did she feel relieved.
