The next morning, sunlight shone through the mottled leaves into the quiet village.
Those people in the village who were not too busy gathered towards where Yue Yue and the others were, and everyone's face was filled with enthusiasm and curiosity.
It turned out that the tempting aroma wafting from the Youth League House yesterday afternoon had already been deeply imprinted in everyone's hearts.
The rich aroma of meat was many times better than the dishes cooked by the villagers yesterday.
So, everyone had the same idea in mind - come and help build the house, maybe they can taste the mouth-watering delicious pork!
In this way, with the expectation of delicious food, more and more people joined the support team.
When the captain arrived at the scene, he saw more than 30 people gathered in front of him and couldn't help feeling embarrassed and awkward.
His face flushed red, and he raised his voice and started scolding loudly: "We just had meat yesterday, why are there so many people here today? Does building a house require such a large number of people? Get out of here and get back to your own business. Don't make trouble!"
However, in response to the captain's reprimand, people just laughed and showed no intention of leaving.
At this time, Yue Yue looked at the huge crowd and complained in her heart.
Because the amount of braised food she prepared in advance was very limited and could not meet the needs of so many people.
In desperation, she had to ask Li Xin and others for help, asking them to cut the remaining pig offal into smaller pieces and distribute them as evenly as possible to everyone who came to help, so that everyone could at least taste this unique flavor.
As for the larger amount, Yue Yue really couldn't do anything about it.
After seeing that their goal was achieved, those who were a little thin-skinned would feel a little embarrassed and hurriedly leave the scene.
However, for those who are particularly thick-skinned, it is a completely different picture.
Let’s talk about Aunt Zhang. She ate the offal in her hand cleanly like a whirlwind, without leaving even a trace of residue.
Not only that, she even stretched out her tongue and licked her fingers carefully, as if she wanted to keep the last trace of the remaining fragrance in her mouth.
I saw that her eyes, which were not big to begin with, were now rolling around non-stop, like two restless marbles.
Suddenly, her expression changed drastically, as if she had come up with some brilliant idea.
She yelled at the top of her voice, "Hey! Yue Zhiqing, look at the pork you cooked. How come it's so delicious? Could it be that you're secretly taking advantage of socialism? Why can't ordinary people like us make it taste this good?"
When Yue Yue saw her eyes rolling around, she immediately understood that Aunt Zhang was going to start making trouble and acting unreasonably again.
However, Yue Yue wasn't easily intimidated by her. She smiled slightly and replied calmly, "Aunt Zhang, I just added some ordinary seasonings. If you want to buy more, you can go to the supply and marketing cooperative. Why do you think it's fleecing socialism?"
"Besides, I'm not the only one eating this meat. We all share it together! If you say that, does that mean our entire village is fleecing socialism? Doesn't that mean our entire village will be used as a target?"
Aunt Zhang widened her eyes and looked at Yue Yue in disbelief. She could never have imagined that this seemingly weak little girl could be more capable than her.
The villagers around who had just enjoyed delicious meat were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped.
Who would have thought that just by eating a small bite of meat, he would become a sinner who was fleecing the country?
For a moment, everyone's eyes shot towards Aunt Zhang like sharp arrows, and their angry eyes seemed to want to eat her alive.
Every word Yue Yue said just now hit their hearts like a heavy hammer, making them break out in cold sweats.
Finally, someone couldn't contain their anger anymore and stood up and shouted, "What nonsense are you talking about, you old woman? We just ate some meat, how can it be considered fleecing the country?"
"Besides, it's just adding a few more seasonings. If you can't make it yourself, do you think you can't let others have the ability?"
As soon as these words were spoken, it was like a stone that stirred up a thousand waves. The people around echoed, "That's right! Yue Zhiqing was so kind and generous in sharing the meat with everyone, but you, not only don't you know how to be grateful, but you're actually slandering him here. You're simply repaying kindness with enmity!"
Faced with the accusations and scolding from the crowd, Aunt Zhang suddenly panicked, and her originally calm face turned pale.
His lips trembled, and he wanted to refute but found that he had no idea what to say.
After all, the facts are in front of us, and she was indeed in the wrong.
Seeing that the situation was becoming increasingly unfavorable, Aunt Zhang no longer cared about anything else. She turned around and ran out the door in panic.
Only a group of indignant villagers were left talking on the spot.
As Aunt Zhang left, the scene gradually returned to calm, and the foundation work was able to resume as if the farce had never happened.
However, after this incident, the villagers began to appreciate Yue Yue, a smart and eloquent girl, even more.
Yue Xin stood under the lush tree, her face flushed with anger, and she stomped her feet on the ground as if she wanted to create a big hole in the ground beneath her feet.
