After hearing this, Ji Changgeng wanted to tear Shen Yan's mouth apart on the spot.
Ji Xia was able to voluntarily donate hundreds of kilograms of rice, just hoping that the team members could get through this cold winter safely. Can't they even afford a meal of meat?
Ji Changgeng had already imagined that Ji Xia had discovered the cave filled with rice, and she had carried a bag of rice out to survive the famine, and had exchanged the rice for some meat to satisfy her hunger, and then she was reported by Shen Yan.
Can’t good people who do good things get any benefits?
Where is justice!
Ji Changgeng ignored it completely. "Ji Xia's family ate a little meat, which is nothing out of the ordinary. Xie Sufen has already explained this matter. It was Ji Xia's second uncle who sent it. As for Ji Xia not coming to work for the past three days, it was because the team leader had arranged for her to do something. Scorekeeper, remember to help Ji Xia record the work points for these three days. They are all full points!"
Ji Can looked up at Ji Changgeng with hatred. Since she was a child, the people in the production team had doubted her background. No matter how hard she tried, these people looked at her with tinted glasses, as if she had tarnished the bloodline of the Ji family.
As for Ji Xia, the eldest granddaughter of the Ji family, everyone likes her no matter what she does. As long as she goes out, someone will give her food. Even if they go out together, the food will be handed to Ji Xia, as if those people can't see her.
God knows how happy she would be when she heard that Ji Jianguo was adopted. Then Ji Xia would not be the eldest granddaughter of the Ji family, and she would not be liked by the people in the production team.
Will these people focus their attention on her and take her seriously?
She didn't expect that Ji Changgeng would still defend Ji Xia so much.
She didn't do any work, so why did she get full work points?
Ji Xia saw the expressions of Ji Can and Shen Yan and couldn't help but sneer. You little brat, fighting with her is like eating arsenic.
She raised her voice, "Shuanzi, go to the old locust tree forest. I put a bunch of prey there yesterday and forgot to bring it back. Take a few people to find it. It's in the crack of a big rock. Bring it back and give it to Aunt Hexiang so that we can have a snack for everyone at noon."
The team members were like being injected with chicken blood. God knows how many days they hadn’t smelled the aroma of meat!
"Okay, Sister Xia, I'll take people there right away!" Shuanzi raised his arm and called out, "Children, follow me!"
Yang Shuan is the son of Yang Dazhuang. He is less than ten years old this year. He is not tall and thin, but very naughty. He is the leader of the children in the village.
Hearing that there was meat to eat, he ran in front, followed by a group of people, big and small, running up the mountain.
Even Yuan Dazhi, who had always been at odds with the Ji family, said in a flattering tone, "Kid, if you make food for yourself, just eat it yourself. Why are you sharing it with others?"
Ji Xia smiled but did not answer.
Shen Yan was shaking with anger. "Ji Xia, is this how you curry favor with the secretary so that he won't punish you and give you full work points?"
This move of sowing discord was quite clever. She wanted to tell the villagers that it was just a little prey and was not worth full work points at all. She didn't think Ji Xia's frail body could catch any prey.
Maybe it's a rabbit that you catch by waiting for it.
Ji Xia laughed and said, "No, I was just telling you that if you want to eat meat, I have plenty of ways to do it. You said that I had to steal Old Lady Ji's money to eat meat. I think this is an insult to me!"
Shen Yan said, "You said you can hunt and eat prey. With your ability, it's good enough to catch a rabbit. But you have two big bowls of meat at home. How do you explain it?"
"Is it possible that I can only catch one rabbit? Wait a minute, Shuanzi and the others will be here soon. Just wait and see!" Ji Xia gestured to Ji Changgeng, "Uncle Changgeng, if Comrade Shen Yan falsely accuses me, what will be the punishment?"
Ji Changgeng looked at Shen Yan, "Comrade Shen Yan, I will give you one more chance. If you can apologize to Comrade Ji Xia in front of everyone, we will pretend that we didn't hear what you just said.
If there is sufficient evidence to prove that Comrade Ji Xia is capable of eating meat on his own, you will be guilty of false accusation and the production team will not be able to protect you."
At this moment, Ji Mingyue stood up and said, "Secretary, I want to report Ji Xia too!"
Before she could finish her words, Zhang Guihua rushed forward, grabbed Ji Mingyue and dragged her back, "Mingyue, you are confused. Why did you report Xia Xia? Are you crazy?"
Ji Mingyue pushed her mother away and said, "I'm going to report Ji Xia. She's not a member of the Ji family anymore. Why can't I report her? Should we allow her to harm other educated youth?"
Zhang Guihua stamped her feet in anger, "You bitch, I think you've been bewitched by that educated youth He, come back with me!"
She went forward to pull Ji Mingyue, but her daughter pushed her away. Ji Mingyue said nonchalantly, "He Zhiqing just said something fair. Don't tell me you can't even say fair things now?"
"What do you want to report me for?" Ji Xia asked.
"I'm reporting you for colluding with monsters!" Ji Mingyue pointed at the smallest group of zombies. "You've been associating with people from the Feng Zixiu and Ji families. You two must be colluding. I suspect you're an enemy spy!"
When the word "enemy spy" came out, almost everyone was shocked. This was not an ordinary crime. Anyone who was involved in it would be severely punished, even if he did not die, and he would never be able to get rid of it.
This is just like in feudal society, where people were falsely accused of treason.
What a great hatred this is!
Xie Sufen was almost mad with rage. She rushed forward, grabbed Ji Mingyue's hair, and slapped her left and right, making Ji Mingyue dizzy.
Zhang Guihua stood aside and watched her daughter being beaten without saying a word.
