Chapter 290 Uproar



Why would someone take Zhao Genlin to his uncle's house if there's nothing going on, especially not during holidays?

Lin Taohong's mind was racing.

"Xiuhua, do you see anything different about them?"

Xiuhua thought for a moment and was about to answer when she heard Ningjing calling her name from beside the mound of earthworms.

Hearing her sister-in-law call her, Xiuhua immediately forgot about Lin Taohong's question, shook off Lin Taohong's hand, and ran towards Ningjing.

"Why so slow?"

Ning Jing glanced at her, then at Lin Taohong, who was following behind Xiuhua and looked rather unwell, and suppressed her doubts to ask.

"I'm sorry, sister-in-law."

Xiuhua pursed her lips and apologized softly.

Ning Jing looked away and said nothing more.

He turned to Su Meilan and said, "Sister-in-law Meilan, just as I said, remember to sprinkle some water on each manure pile this afternoon, but not too much."

After spending this time together, Su Meilan was somewhat convinced by what Ning Jing said and nodded in agreement.

"Taohong, you go back first, just bring me lunch today."

Su Meilan still had work to do, so after thinking about it, she decided to let her eldest daughter go home first.

Lin Taohong looked at Xiuhua, but Xiuhua turned her head away and wouldn't look at her.

She was both angry and anxious, but dared not show any unusual behavior in front of her mother and Ning Jing.

If people found out that she had the audacity to confess her feelings to Zhao Genlin, her mother would be the first to break her legs with a stick, not just because others were spitting at her.

Seeing that Xiuhua did not respond, Lin Taohong could only leave the breeding farm, looking back every few steps.

After Ning Jing finished speaking with Su Meilan, she took Xiu Hua to the mountain to dig up compost.

However, when they reached the hillside, Ning Jing didn't act as usual. Instead, she looked at Xiu Hua and said, "Ever since you met Sister Gui Hua and the others, you've been somewhat distracted. And Lin Tao Hong, is she trying to cause you trouble?"

Xiuhua's face turned red and then pale when Ning Jing asked her such a direct question.

Then, biting her lower lip, she replied, "Sister-in-law, I promise I won't tell."

When Ning Jing heard what she said, she already knew in her heart that it must be related to Lin Taohong.

However, since Xiuhua doesn't want to talk about it, if she presses her further, it might backfire and create distance between them.

"Okay, if you say so, I won't press you. I only have one request: if Lin Taohong bullies you again, you must tell me immediately."

Hearing her sister-in-law say that, Xiuhua breathed a sigh of relief and felt a warm feeling in her heart.

"Actually... Sister Taohong didn't really bully me. She just wanted me to help her, but I didn't want to help her."

Xiuhua hesitated for a long time before speaking softly.

She only promised Sister Taohong not to tell anyone about her confession, but she didn't promise not to tell anyone that she was unwilling to help Sister Taohong when she asked for her help.

"help?"

Ning Jing thought carefully about what Tao Hong needed Xiu Hua's help with, but Xiu Hua was unwilling to help.

I thought and thought, but I still couldn't figure out a reason.

Since I can't think of anything, I'll put it aside for now.

Lin Taohong insisted on asking Xiuhua for help, but Xiuhua refused. Judging from Lin Taohong's appearance just now, it seemed that she was not someone who could give up easily.

It seems I can only wait until next time and find an opportunity to probe Lin Taohong to see what's going on that's making things so difficult for Xiuhua.

However, the opportunity that Ning Jing was looking for never came.

No, it should be said that the news that Zhao Genlin spread after Wang Guihua returned caused a huge uproar.
