"Uncle, this... Lili definitely wouldn't say that. Lili cares about you the most, don't you know that?"
"Lili was just tired these past few days, so she went to rest for a while," Song Jianshe said to Wu Jiang, forcing a smile. "Then...should I go and call her?"
"Forget it, if she doesn't want to get involved, then let it go. Sigh... Has this girl become so clever lately? She actually ran away?"
"She knew what I was coming for!" Wu Jiang exclaimed, stopping Song Jianshe, but he couldn't help feeling envious. Such a smart girl wasn't his own daughter.
Thinking of this, he glared at Wu Huan again. How could he have given birth to such a thing? It's incredibly stupid and disobedient.
If only I had had a daughter back then, she wouldn't be so infuriating. She wouldn't be like that idiot Wu Huan.
Wu Jiang couldn't stand Wu Huan at this moment; he found him unpleasant to look at. Compared to Song Lili, he found him even more unpleasant.
"Big Brother..." Wu Huan felt uneasy under Wu Jiang's glare, but forced himself to take a step forward and weakly called out with his head down.
"Don't call me that. I'm not your father-in-law. I don't have a son as stupid as you," Wu Jiang roared angrily.
Seeing Wu Huan's cowardly appearance, the anger in his heart immediately became uncontrollable, erupting like a volcano.
"Calling you stupid is too kind. Didn't I tell you? Greenhouses are not suitable for growing vegetables right now. Did you even listen to me?"
"If I hadn't noticed something was wrong and come looking for you today, would you have already prepared to attack on your own? Huh? I think you're asking for a beating, aren't you?" Wu Jiang couldn't help but get angry when he talked about this.
"Big Brother..." Although Wu Huan was a little afraid of Wu Jiang's anger, he still felt unwilling and couldn't help but retort, "I heard everything you said, but Lili's family planted it and nothing happened."
"Calling you stupid is actually a compliment, isn't it? Is Lili's family the same as ours? If they were, why would I be stopping you? Everyone has their own way of enjoying life, right?"
Wujiang is like a tap that's been turned on right now, spraying whoever it touches.
"Or do you think I'm stupid, that I'm just being pathetic by watching others live a good life, and that's why I'm choosing to live a hard life?"
"Then why won't you let me grow vegetables?" Wu Huan said softly.
"You...sigh...why did I give birth to such an idiot like you? Why aren't you as smart as Lili?"
"That girl reminded you so much, and you still haven't figured it out. Aren't you stupid? You're so dumb." Wu Jiang said dejectedly.
"What did Lili remind me of? Dad, what are you saying?" Wu Huan looked at Wu Jiang, confused and even bewildered.
"Do you know why Lili didn't teach you right away, but instead made you ask me? Do you know why she did that?" Wu Jiang finally said to Wu Huan earnestly.
"Because Lili doesn't want to teach me, what else could it be?" Wu Huan muttered under his breath, rubbing the ground with the sole of his shoe.
"If that's really what you think, then it's really not worth that girl sending so many things into your stomach."
"She's been so good to you, and you still think about her like this? You're really wasting her kindness. She doesn't deserve a relative like you."
"Big Brother... I... why is that?" Wu Huan felt a little flustered after hearing Wu Jiang's words, and asked Wu Jiang in a low voice with caution.
"Now you know to ask people? Where were you before?" Wu Jiang glared at Wu Huan. "Don't you even know what the situation is like outside?"
"If you grow vegetables, a lot of people will say you're a capitalist roader, and you'll be dragged out for criticism and struggle sessions, do you know that? You silly son?"
"Do you even realize how serious this is?" Wu Jiang asked, heartbroken.
"No...no way, Lili, she..." Wu Huan was dumbfounded, never expecting Wu Jiang to say such a thing. He suddenly remembered Song Lili asking him before, asking if he knew the consequences?
Was this the consequence that Lili asked about back then?
"Don't talk about Lili. Didn't you see that the whole Hongqi Village grows vegetables? If anyone says this is capitalist roader, then the whole Hongqi Village does. Who do you think has the power to touch an entire village?"
“In our village, it would be much easier to mess with you. But you're just a vegetable grower; anyone could come and drag you away.”
"Not to mention what those jealous people will do if you do well. Do you even know that?"
"I thought you already knew everything I'd said, but maybe your brain is just full of straws? Why can't you think about it for yourself?"
"Is Lily unwilling to teach you? She's not teaching you because she already knows these things; she's doing it for your own good."
“But I never expected you to be so heartless, actually thinking so much about your cousin. All her efforts have been wasted.” Wu Jiang shook his head as he looked at his son.
Finally, with a look of exasperation, she said, "How could you be so stupid? If you were as smart as Lili, I would feel much more at ease."
"This...Master, this...no way?" Wu Huan was completely stunned, because he really hadn't expected such a consequence.
He just wanted to grow vegetables and exchange them at the purchasing station to make a little money to improve his family's life. He never expected so many twists and turns to follow.
This time, if Wu Jiang hadn't spoken so frankly, he would never have imagined that such a thing could happen.
So, he was momentarily stunned and didn't know what to say.
Not to mention Wu Huan, even Song Yongren, Song Jianshe, and Xia Niu, who followed them in, were all taken aback.
They had followed the father and son in out of concern, but they hadn't expected to overhear such words. This greatly alarmed them.
Song Yongren was also startled. "Uncle, this shouldn't be happening. We've been planting for years and nothing has ever gone wrong."
"Sigh...you guys are all too optimistic. Never think too highly of people, or you'll definitely be the one who suffers."
"The reason you're able to grow it without any problems is because your whole village is growing it. If it were just your family, would you let Lili, that girl, grow it and see if she would agree?"
"Sigh, this girl is smart. She got the whole village on her side early on. Now, if we touch her, we're touching everyone."
"That's why you're safe and sound. What else did you think?" Wu Jiang said, looking at Song Yongren.
I couldn't help but sigh inwardly. This brother-in-law was honest and reliable, not stupid, but not very clever.
How could he have given birth to such a clever and resourceful daughter? This is truly his blessing.
“This… I never thought of that,” Song Yongren and Song Jianshe stammered.
"So you guys are lucky. With that girl around, you don't have to do anything."
