Wang Qiang thought for a moment and decided to go find Su Yao. He knew Su Yao lived in the educated youth settlement, a place with many people and a lot of attention, so he had to find a way to avoid the crowds.
Wang Qiang wandered around the village for a while and saw some children playing there. An idea struck him, so he walked over, took out a few pieces of candy from his pocket, and said with a smile, "Kids, can you do me a favor?"
The children's eyes lit up when they saw the candy, and they all gathered around.
Wang Qiang said, "Whoever can help me go to the educated youth settlement to find Sister Su Yao and tell her that I'm waiting for her at the dilapidated temple at the west end of the village, these candies will be theirs."
A daring child took the candy and said, "I'll go!"
Wang Qiang patted his head with a smile: "Okay, go and come back quickly."
The child ran all the way to the educated youth settlement. At that moment, Su Yao was tidying up inside when she heard a child calling her from outside: "Sister Su Yao, someone's looking for you!"
Su Yao came out and looked at the child with a puzzled expression: "Who's looking for me?"
The child relayed Wang Qiang's words to her, and Su Yao understood somewhat. She gave the child a piece of candy and sent him home.
Afterwards, taking advantage of the fact that the others were not paying attention, Su Yao quietly left the educated youth settlement and headed towards the dilapidated temple at the west end of the village.
Wang Qiang waited in the dilapidated temple for a while, and finally saw Su Yao arrive.
"What do you want from me?" Su Yao asked.
Wang Qiang said with a bitter face, "Su Yao, this time things have gotten really bad. The brigade leader wants our family to pay fifty yuan in compensation, plus a bunch of grain and daily necessities, and he also wants me to apologize to Lin Qian in front of the whole village. Where am I supposed to get that much money? My dad has been sighing all day because of this, and he can't even eat."
My mom was so anxious and upset, she even got several blisters in her mouth. I was also very worried and didn't know what to do! As he spoke, a pained expression appeared on his face, but his eyes flickered secretly. He thought to himself: This Su Yao is really stupid. Just to compete with Lin Qian for a man, she's caused such a mess and dragged me into it too. But it's fine, the stupider she is, the easier it is for me to get benefits from her.
Su Yao was secretly pleased; Wang Qiang hadn't betrayed her, which was a good thing.
On the surface, she pretended to be very concerned and said, "Oh dear, what should we do?" But in her heart, she was secretly pleased: Wang Qiang is a money-grubber. As long as I give him some benefits, he will definitely listen to me and do things for me.
She looked at Wang Qiang with a hint of disdain in her eyes, thinking: These two women are fighting over such a trivial matter, how ridiculous. But this is perfect, I can use Wang Qiang to completely ruin Lin Qian and make it impossible for her to stay in this village.
Wang Qiang continued to complain: "My parents are almost driven crazy with worry. We didn't have much savings to begin with, and now we have to come up with so much stuff and money all at once. It's like the end of the world for our whole family! I had no other choice but to come to you for help."
"I can only hope you can help me." His eyes revealed deep helplessness and despair, and his voice trembled slightly, while he inwardly mocked Su Yao's foolishness.
Su Yao rolled her eyes and said, "How about this, I'll give you ten ten-yuan bills, you can take them for emergencies."
But you have to promise me you'll continue to do things for me.
If you can teach Lin Qian a good lesson and make it impossible for her to stay in the village, you'll definitely get your share of the benefits.
After saying that, she took out a few ten-yuan bills from her pocket and waved them in front of Wang Qiang, convinced that he would be tempted by the money.
Upon hearing this, Wang Qiang was overjoyed, his eyes widening in surprise. Those few ten-yuan bills seemed like a lifeline to him.
But he still looked troubled: "Is this...is this appropriate? Su Yao, I know you have a problem with Lin Qian, but if this gets out of hand, I won't be able to handle it."
Moreover, Lin Qian is no pushover either, I'm afraid..." But in his heart he was thinking: This silly woman, does she really think I'll always listen to her? Once I get enough benefits from her, I'll see how to deal with her.
Su Yao interrupted him impatiently: "What's inappropriate about it? What are you afraid of? As long as you do as I say, there won't be any problems. Don't forget, you're the one who caused this mess. If you don't want to find a solution, do you expect me to take the blame for you?"
Wang Qiang nodded quickly: "Okay, I will do my best. However, Su Yao, Lin Qian is indeed not easy to deal with. I need to plan carefully to ensure that things are handled properly."
Wang Qiang narrowed his eyes and said, "I think we can't be too hasty; we have to take it one step at a time. Although we didn't manage to ruin her reputation or make her lose face in the village this time, I won't give up. I'll look for other opportunities." His face wore a seemingly determined expression, but in his mind, he was quickly calculating his own plans. He thought that getting benefits from Su Yao was his top priority, but he also had to be careful not to get too deeply involved and become Su Yao's scapegoat.
"I need to keep Su Yao calm and make her continue to believe that I will help her, so that I can keep getting money from her," Wang Qiang thought to himself. "Then, I'll find a way to create some trouble and put Lin Qian in a difficult situation. However, I have to do it cleverly so that no one can easily find out that I'm the one behind this. If things are exposed, I'll have to find a way to clear myself of any wrongdoing."
Su Yao frowned and said impatiently, "That's your problem. I only care about the results. You'd better get things done as soon as possible, or you'll be in big trouble. Let me tell you, don't even think about taking the money and not doing the job. If I find out you're up to no good, you'll be in big trouble!" Her eyes revealed a fierce glint, as if warning Wang Qiang not to have any improper thoughts.
