Song Lili broke out in a cold sweat, her entire body instantly drenched in sweat.
Fortunately, she didn't act impulsively or risk getting close to Luo Wei's house, otherwise she would have been dead if she had been discovered.
Luo Weijia is still the village head and still has power. If he is discovered, he will be severely punished before he is removed from office.
She still didn't really want to experience that feeling.
So, thankfully!
Song Lili was very glad that she had been careful just now. Now, hearing Luo Juan leave, she plopped down on the ground again.
This time, she wasn't in a hurry to leave because the position she had just been in was too difficult, and her legs were cramping.
She rubbed her thighs vigorously, hoping the numbness would pass quickly, otherwise it would be too uncomfortable.
It was ten minutes later when she was able to stand up normally, and she would feel pain if she moved even slightly.
She limped back to the field and continued the work she hadn't finished. Of course, without Luo Weijia keeping an eye on her, Yang Weimin turned a blind eye to her.
However, her legs are still somewhat affected; she can't bend over or squat for long periods of time, otherwise she experiences sharp, needle-like pain.
After a long day, Song Lili felt that this was the most tiring day of her life, even more tiring than working three days in a row.
She really wanted to fall asleep right away and not care about anything.
But remembering what she had heard that afternoon, she struggled to go to the brigade to find Zhang Qinghua.
Since Zhang Shengtian learned about Song Lili's plan, they no longer needed to secretly find a place to discuss things.
Now everyone goes directly to Zhang Qinghua's house, which is not only much safer, but also prevents others from overhearing them.
Zhang Qinghua was very surprised to see Song Lili. "Why are you here at this hour?" He would have been going to bed soon if he hadn't been busy.
During the autumn harvest, everyone goes to sleep right after eating so that they have good energy to work the next day.
"I have something to tell you," Song Lili said, dragging her uncomfortable leg.
"Then come in first." Zhang Qinghua let Song Lili in before closing the door.
"What happened to your leg?" Suddenly, Song Lili, who was walking in front, heard Zhang Qinghua ask from behind.
Song Lili turned around in surprise. How could he see her in such darkness? But she still answered, "Oh, I just had a cramp today, and I don't think I've recovered yet. I feel a little uncomfortable right now."
She didn't know that Zhang Qinghua's hearing was many times better than others, and he could identify people by their footsteps.
He didn't see it with his eyes, but heard it with his ears, which is why he asked.
"You need to rub it hard to get rid of cramps, did you rub it?" Zhang Qinghua asked.
"Don't worry, I rubbed it for a long time, and it will be fine after a good night's sleep." Song Lili didn't care, it was just a cramp.
Zhang Qinghua paused for a moment before finally humming in agreement.
Zhang Shengtian was also surprised by Song Lili's arrival. After kicking Zhang Qingguo out, he asked, "What do you want?"
It's alright, nobody's going to visit right now.
"I overheard Luo Weijia and Zhou Jiaming talking today. It seems they misappropriated militia subsidies, and Xiao Wang has been urging them to get it back."
Intelligent people don't need to explain things very clearly, but they can understand what others mean.
Song Lili's simple sentence was immediately understood by Zhang Qinghua and Zhang Shengtian.
"Luo Weijia is so audacious? He actually dared to embezzle subsidy money? Doesn't he know that the town attaches great importance to the militia? And now is the hottest time of year!"
Song Lili seemed a little embarrassed as she said, "It seems to be because of the three hundred yuan I extorted from him a few days ago."
After saying that, she was sweating profusely. Extortion? Not really.
"So that's how it is." Zhang Shengtian looked at Song Lili with some amusement, and Zhang Qinghua also revealed a meaningful smile.
They must have heard about what happened a few days ago, and the people of Hongqi Village probably know about it too.
However, because Li Weiguo was there, they knew all the details and were very clear about Song Lili's actions.
To be honest, Zhang Shengtian was quite impressed with Song Lili for asking for three hundred yuan right off the bat.
Who could just casually offer three hundred yuan without batting an eye? It's something you wouldn't even dare to dream of, but she did it without hesitation.
It's truly admirable.
Zhang Qinghua felt mostly heartache; he felt sorry for Song Lili being pushed into the river by Luo Yuejin. Of course, his biggest thought was definitely to get revenge.
However, reality didn't allow it, so he could only feel sorry for Song Lili and remember Luo Yuejin in his heart.
A gentleman takes his revenge even after ten years.
Song Lili blushed slightly. She hadn't felt it when she did it, but now, under the gaze of the father and son, she blushed.
Song Lili felt very uncomfortable, shifted slightly, and cleared her throat. "Luo Weijia said he could pay it back tomorrow."
"You mean, we should use this day to cause trouble?" Zhang Qinghua asked with a smile in his eyes. It was Song Lili who had told him the word "cause trouble."
Song Lili nodded, "Yes, we finally got a chance, we absolutely can't miss it, otherwise we don't know when the next one will come."
Opportunity knocks but once. It won't come again.
“Yes, it is indeed a great opportunity, but how should we proceed?” Zhang Shengtian agreed, acknowledging that it was indeed a great opportunity.
Song Lili smiled slyly, "What I mean is, we'd like to trouble Comrade Wang a bit, since it's not convenient for either of us."
“Yes, that’s what I think too. It’s reasonable for Comrade Wang to inquire about this matter. After all, it’s from the town, and we can’t control what’s going on, can we?” Zhang Qinghua nodded with a smile in his eyes.
Zhang Shengtian nodded in agreement, "Indeed, only Comrade Wang is qualified." He then paused for a moment before asking, "Have you figured out how to invite Comrade Wang?"
Zhang Qinghua didn't speak, he just looked at Song Lili.
Song Lili thought for a moment, "This is what I think. I'm just giving him a hint, but I shouldn't be too explicit, otherwise it will arouse suspicion."
The father and son nodded. Indeed, it would be strange to suddenly bring up the matter of subsidies, and it would also make people suspicious.
"But how can I subtly reveal this to him and then have him urge me to do so? I haven't figured it out yet."
She thought for a long time but couldn't come up with a way to get Xiao Wang to act according to her wishes without having to show her face.
She thought about it all afternoon, but still had no clue.
Zhang Qinghua chuckled like a fox, “Use Daqing! Otherwise, what’s the point of keeping this guy around? Now’s his chance to shine.”
"Daqing? This won't do, will it? What if Luo Weijia finds out?" She couldn't let Daqing down; he was someone with whom she had a powerful family connection.
Moreover, she couldn't indirectly harm Sister Yangmei; she couldn't bear to do so, nor could she.
