Upon hearing this, Song Lili's expression immediately brightened. Could this be her chance?
She looked at Xia Jun with some excitement, "How long have they been gone?"
"I just got there and rushed over to tell you. Hurry up, or you'll miss it." Xia Jun was even more anxious than Song Lili.
Song Lili reacted very quickly this time. She came out of the wheat field and immediately ran towards the place Xia Jun had mentioned.
Xia Jun followed behind Song Lili, which puzzled the aunties who worked with Song Lili. They thought something had happened to Song Lili's family, since Xia Jun's family and Song Lili's family were related by marriage.
The broad beans have grown to be half a person's height by now. As long as they are bent over or half-squatting in the field, it is very difficult for others to find them.
Therefore, Luo Weijia and Zhou Jiaming really chose a good place.
Even if there are people around, the sound of them moving around and turning the broad beans will alert them, so the possibility of being eavesdropped on is really small.
Song Lili suddenly stopped halfway through her run, nearly causing Xia Jun, who was following behind, to crash into her. He quickly braked.
"Xia Jun, you can't go. The fewer people there are, the better," Song Lili said to Xia Jun very seriously.
Putting aside the difficulty of eavesdropping, Xia Jun is still too young, so there are some things he can't know.
"Why? I can help." Xia Jun was puzzled and looked stubbornly at Song Lili.
"Yes...it's me who needs your help." Song Lili had a sudden inspiration and quickly said, afraid that Xia Jun would think she was kicking him out.
"What kind of help?" Sure enough, Xia Jun's eyes lit up, and he looked at Song Lili with great anticipation.
"Okay, go find Zhang Qinghua for me and tell him I'm here. You need to do it as soon as possible, it's very important."
Finally, Song Lili emphasized that this was very important.
Xia Jun went happily, without the slightest reluctance.
Watching Xia Jun run away into the distance, Song Lili turned around and headed in the direction Luo Weijia and the other man had gone, hoping to find what she wanted this time.
When Song Lili reached the broad bean field halfway up the mountain, she was in trouble because as far as the eye could see, there was no one in sight, only lush green crops.
Finding Luo Wei's home would be very difficult, and with such a large area of land, she didn't know where to begin.
If the commotion is too great, it will be discovered.
Looking at the lush greenery, Song Lili frowned for a long time before finally coming up with a solution, though she was also clumsy with words.
Waiting for a rabbit to run into a tree stump.
She planned to keep an eye on them from here. As long as the two people moved, the broad beans near them would definitely move as well, and that way she would know where they were.
Song Lili was relieved that it was only mid-morning and there was no wind, so this method was quite effective.
If it were in the afternoon, the chances of Song Lili finding Luo Weijia and the other person would be almost zero.
Whether she had some kind of halo or not, Song Lili stared intently at the broad bean field for a short while before noticing a small movement in the very center.
It was quite obvious; even though the uniform color reduced the obviousness, Song Lili still noticed it with her sharp eyes.
All around were silent broad bean stalks; the only place that moved was where someone was.
So, she moved slowly towards the innermost and highest part of the terraced field, trying to touch the broad beans as little as possible.
The gaps between the broad beans are relatively large, which is conducive to their growth, and this made things convenient for Song Lili.
Using her past and present experience in weeding, she moved in that direction as quietly as possible.
It took her a long time to move to the same level as where she had seen earlier, but she was still quite far away.
This plot of land was just weeded a few days ago, so unless there's nothing else going on, nobody comes here.
Song Lili had just parted the broad bean stalks in front of her, separated them in the middle, and found the largest gap, and was about to squeeze in.
Unexpectedly, she saw a shadow cast not far from her, and it looked like a person.
Are there other people here?
Having noticed the anomaly, Song Lili stopped moving. Although she really wanted to hear what Luo Weijia and the other man were saying, she didn't want to expose herself.
If you don't hear anything and instead expose yourself, then it would be a loss.
She squatted quietly in place, waiting for him to leave.
But the shadow remained standing there, without moving.
Song Lili wondered, could this person have the same goal as her? Was it also to eavesdrop?
She looked up, glanced at the position of the sun, and then, based on the position of the shadow of the broad bean stalks on the ground, determined the approximate location of the person.
It turned out that the person was standing directly above him, but not on the same floor; the two of them were actually the closest.
This discovery made Song Lili subconsciously breathe much softer, afraid that her breathing would be heard if it was too loud.
She couldn't hear Luo Weijia and the other person talking, but she could hear their voices.
Song Lili was secretly amused, wondering if this was a case of being blind to one's own faults. It was the first time in her life she had ever been caught hiding right under someone's nose.
The two men, Luo Weijia and his companion, were completely unaware that they were being watched by the other two and were still arguing.
Yes, it was an argument, a debate about Zhou Jiaming's purpose in seeking out Luo Weijia this time.
"Luo Weijia, don't forget what you told me back then. You said you would return the money to me in a few days, but so much time has passed, where is the money?" Zhou Jiaming was really anxious, which is why he called Luo Weijia by his name directly. He usually calls him Director Luo.
"Jiaming, don't worry, I said I would definitely give it to you. Can you wait a couple of days?" Luo Weijia patiently reassured Zhou Jiaming.
"No, that guy surnamed Wang, the one from town, has already asked me two or three times. If I don't give it to him soon, I'm doomed."
Zhou Jiaming was really anxious, which is why he came to find Luo Weijia.
"Jiaming, it's not that I don't want to give it to you, it's just that Yuejin has spent a lot of money on doctor's visits, and my family's savings are all gone, so I'm asking you to give me two more days."
Luo Weijia was also angry, but he had no choice but to appease Zhou Jiaming, since he needed his help now.
"Director Luo, it's really not that I don't want to give you more time, it's just that I don't have the time. That guy surnamed Wang said he needs it tomorrow."
"Otherwise, I wouldn't be pressuring you. Can't you think about me too?"
Zhou Jiaming was extremely anxious. He couldn't get the money out, nor could he get it back. He didn't even dare to think about what the consequences would be.
He still remembered how disheveled Xu Youcai looked, and he didn't want to end up like that, so he had no choice but to ask Luo Weijia for help.
He also began to hate Luo Weijia, and he hated Song Lili, who had made Luo Weijia the way he was now, with a burning rage.
He couldn't help but think that if he ever found a chance, he would definitely teach that brat a lesson.
