Chapter 168: The Results



"Aren't you afraid of adults? Aren't you afraid of getting beaten?" Qin Hongxia asked deliberately, seemingly pleased to see Song Lili's defiant expression.

Song Lili glanced at Qin Hongxia, couldn't help but purse her lips inwardly, and looked up at the sky speechlessly. How childish was this person?

Does she think being afraid of adults and getting beaten makes her happy? That's utterly ridiculous.

However, she still stubbornly stuck out her neck, looking like she was determined to fight to the death. "Of course I'm not scared. Besides, no adult will hit me. My grandpa won't hit me."

"Tch, stop bragging. Apart from your boss, Xu Youcai would love to beat you to death. And you're saying no one will beat you?" Qin Hongxia said smugly, pursing her lips.

"Xu Youcai? Accountant Xu? Why did he hit me?" Song Lili showed no outward change, but inwardly she thought, "As expected."

It seems that Qin Hongxia really does know something, otherwise she wouldn't have said such a thing with such certainty.

It's strange how Xu Youcai always manages to get together with Qin Hongxia; it's truly a mystery.

"Keep pretending. Don't you know why Xu Youcai hit you? Wasn't it you who put that ledger in the team headquarters office?"

Qin Hongxia didn't realize that Song Lili was testing her. Upon hearing Song Lili's question, she immediately retorted unhappily and then told her everything she knew.

Song Lili would never admit to doing it. Even though she really did it, why would she tell anyone?

She tilted her head, looking at Qin Hongxia with a puzzled expression. "Of course I didn't put it there. Didn't everyone say you did?"

When Qin Hongxia suddenly came forward and said she had seen the ledger, everyone naturally assumed that Qin Hongxia had put it in.

Therefore, there was nothing wrong with Song Lili asking that question.

But Qin Hongxia was furious. The thought of the grievances she had suffered back then, and Xu Youcai's deliberate harassment later, made her feel angry and aggrieved.

"You clearly did it, and you still dare to say it was me? I clearly left that ledger at your house, of course you put it there."

Song Lili covered her forehead. Although it was the truth, she still asked, "Do you have any proof? Did you see me put it in there myself?"

"If you didn't see it, don't spout nonsense, or I'll make you feel the same way you did the last few times."

At this point, Song Lili was completely certain that the news had indeed been leaked from Qin Hongxia.

To make matters worse, it happened at such a sensitive time. I wonder if Qin Hongxia is her lucky star or her nemesis.

She was the one who unintentionally helped, and she's also the one who brought this trouble upon herself. It's unbelievable.

Song Lili said irritably, "I think you still remember how I treated you before, right? If you don't want to go through it again, shut up. If I hear you talking nonsense, just you wait."

Song Lili ignored Qin Hongxia's guilty and shifty eyes, stood up somewhat irritably, and walked towards Song Fang's side.

She was just warning Qin Hongxia not to go around talking nonsense, otherwise the whole village would know, and that would be troublesome.

As for Xu Youcai, we already know, so we can only think about how to guard against him. We don't know what he will do.

He certainly wouldn't deliberately make things difficult for them, because Song Yongren is now the captain of the Fifth Brigade, while Xu Youcai is nothing.

Therefore, unless Xu Youcai is stupid, he will definitely not come openly.

Since he was imprisoned and then released last time, no one has wanted to associate with him anymore, so even if he has helpers, there probably aren't many.

Therefore, Song Lili's final conclusion was that Xu Youcai might resort to underhanded tactics, and Luo Juan would be hiding behind the scenes giving advice.

With Luo Juan involved, Song Lili had to take things seriously.

Having made up her mind, Song Lili went about her business, remaining cautious but not actively seeking out Luo Juan.

She'd rather have some peace and quiet for a while; she's not going to be foolish enough to offer herself up herself. There are still some things she hasn't sorted out yet.

It had been raining intermittently for the past few days, so Song Lili couldn't go to the fields and simply went to town.

She discussed with Song Yongren that if the weather cleared up, they should start building the house right away, otherwise they didn't know when the next opportunity would come.

It's not right to let Xia Niu sleep with the two sisters all the time. It's also immoral for the couple to separate.

Most importantly, she doesn't like it and feels awkward and uncomfortable everywhere she goes.

Song Yongren was also thinking about it, and as soon as Song Lili mentioned it, he immediately agreed, asking her to go to town to buy some things so he could make some good food to reward the people who had helped.

Song Lili knew this, so she bought meat, sugar, and a lot of meat that she doesn't usually eat.

She had bought everything when Wang Daming finally arrived, appearing before her belatedly.

"Director Wang, you're such a busy man, how come you still remember to come here?" Song Lili asked jokingly.

"Lili, please stop talking about me. I heard you were here and rushed over immediately. I didn't expect you to say such things about me. I'm really heartbroken." Wang Daming clutched his chest, looking utterly devastated.

Song Lili was amused and slapped him on the shoulder. "Alright, stop joking around. I have something to tell you, and I also need your help with something."

"What is it? Just tell me. I'll definitely help you if you can." Wang Daming agreed without even asking any questions.

"Let's go to your office." Song Lili thought for a moment, but still felt that this was not a good topic to discuss in public.

"Tell me, how can I help you?" Wang Daming looked at Song Lili sincerely.

"Could you find Brother Qian for me and ask him to come here? Then we can talk about our business."

"Okay, wait a moment, I'll tell you to go find it." Wang Daming said and hurriedly went out. He returned a little while later.

"Brother Qian will be here soon. What do you want to say to me?"

"Here's the thing, I might provide you with much fewer vegetables in the future, as I'll keep most of them for myself. I'm letting you know in advance."

"Why? Why are you keeping so much? Isn't it enough for your family to eat? Do you want to sell it to others? Lili, you can't do such a thing. That's taking the capitalist road, and it's not allowed."

Song Lili couldn't help but roll her eyes. This person's imagination was really rich. She had only said one sentence, and he could think of so much.

"You're overthinking it," she couldn't help but interrupt the rambling Wang Daming. "I just wanted to save some for my family, that's why I gave you so little."

In the future, she will not only be providing for her own family of five, but also for four other elderly people, and perhaps even more in the future.

Therefore, she had to inform Wang Daming in advance.
