Chapter Five: Inquiry



What should we do? Could something really have gone wrong?

"Lili, Qinghua said you were looking for me? Is there something wrong at home?" Everyone lived in the same village and knew each other, so Song Yongren could accurately say Zhang Qinghua's name.

"Huh? Oh... It's nothing, it's nothing. I was just wandering around, hehe, just wandering around... hehe..." Song Lili chuckled awkwardly, her embarrassment so great she could practically crawl to the moon.

Damn Li Qinghua, how could you just leave like that? What did you say to my father? This is so awkward!

Song Yongren sighed helplessly once again. He felt that he was sighing more and more often lately.

"Since there's nothing wrong, let's not stay here. The captain will scold us again if he sees us. I need to get back to work."

Song Lili nodded immediately, all her embarrassment gone. She comforted herself, telling herself that it was her own father, it was alright, there was no shame in it. The most important thing now was to avoid being caught by Captain Luo Weijia.

Over the course of time, Song Lili has also gained a clear understanding of the situation in Hongqi Village.

The village party secretary of Hongqi Village is Li Weiguo, the village director (also known as the village head) and production team leader is Luo Weijia, and the accountant is Xu Youcai.

Village Party Secretary Li Weiguo is an upright and kind person. He is generous and many people admire and respect him from the bottom of their hearts.

Luo Weijia, on the other hand, is a ruthless and calculating person who will never let go of a mistake once he has it.

Therefore, Luo Weijia did not have a good reputation in Hongqi Village, but because he was the production team leader, everyone dared not speak out against him.

Song Lili could hear the women in the village secretly cursing him in the fields, wishing him a terrible death.

Xu Youcai is the accountant who calculates the work points of each brigade and manages the money and books of Hongqi Village. His character is still unclear.

However, Song Lili had heard from Song Fang that the person who knocked down the original owner that day was this accountant Xu Youcai. Judging from this, he didn't even apologize, so his character is probably not very good.

So when she heard Luo Weijia's name, Song Lili instinctively ran outside; she didn't want to cause trouble.

She was a rational person, so she knew what was more beneficial to her and ran out of the yard in a few breaths.

Outside, Zhang Qinghua, Li Qinghua, Yang Mei, Yang Tao, and Song Fang were all in the same spot, laughing happily and saying something to each other.

Song Lili even saw shyness in Yang Mei's eyes, and the two little girls' cheeks turned pink with excitement.

Song Lili was puzzled. What was he saying? Why was he so happy?

As soon as she approached, Yang Mei noticed, "Have you finished talking to Uncle Yongren? Are we going back now?" Yang Mei was no longer angry at this point.

She had already come up with an excuse for Song Lili in her mind, thinking that Song Lili lied to her because she was afraid that she wouldn't stay with her, so she said she was looking for someone to learn shoe patterns.

Song Lili was still observing Yang Mei. Seeing that Yang Mei was smiling, and that there was a smile in her eyes, she knew that Yang Mei was not angry.

I immediately breathed a sigh of relief as I put it down; my mind relaxed subconsciously.

Previously, she had the best relationship with her grandmother. Her grandmother was the only source of warmth for her, and just thinking about her made her feel warm and cozy.

Therefore, she cares a lot about her grandmother's feelings and opinions, and doesn't want to make her angry or disappointed. This is an unconscious action.

She put on a bright smile. "Yes, I'm done." She secretly patted her chest, relieved that she wasn't angry.

Yang Mei and Li Qinghua were still enveloped in a pink bubble and had not yet noticed Song Lili's actions.

The two little girls were whispering to each other, their heads close together, seemingly very intimate, and no one noticed.

Only Zhang Qinghua noticed that he glanced at Song Lili again without making a sound, but a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.

Why does Song Lili seem so guilty? Did she say something inappropriate or inappropriate?

Zhang Qinghua remained silent, his face almost expressionless, yet he took in everyone's expressions carefully.

“Lili, Qinghua and the others said that when they harvest barley in a while, they'll have us follow behind them to pick up the ears of barley, and he'll take us to catch field mice.” Yang Mei’s round eyes curved into crescents, making her peach blossom eyes even narrower.

“Okay, okay…” Song Lili readily agreed. Now, she would agree to anything as long as she could see Li Qinghua.

However, she still had some doubts in her mind. They had only met for less than half an hour, and Yang Mei and Li Qinghua had already gotten along so well?
