Song Lili scoffed inwardly, thinking, "I have to say it. How can I hold back?"
Only by speaking out can I upset those two.
It was just adding to their frustration; it caused Luo Weijia and Xu Youcai to suffer internal bleeding and were almost vomiting blood.
Everyone around who had just heard Song Lili speak stopped and stared at them, which made Luo Weijia and Xu Youcai feel as if they had been slapped hard in the face.
Xu Youcai's face stiffened, and he forced a smile. "How could that be? Lili, you're a child. You couldn't carry an adult's weight."
"I didn't put it in the wrong place. It's just that you're not strong enough, which is why it feels heavy."
Of course I made it much heavier for you, otherwise how could I let you, you brat, suffer?
However, these are things that cannot be said openly and honestly.
Even Luo Weijia, with a forced smile, said, "Is it very heavy? How about we take some out for you? You're such a thin child, we need to take care of you too."
Song Lili's eyes flashed with anger. Heh, Luo Weijia is really something. Is he trying to make her the target of hatred?
Others wouldn't know the tricks behind this. When Luo Weijia said that, he was basically saying that she couldn't do any work and had a lot of trouble.
Oh
If she hadn't realized it, she would have offended every family in the village with children today, especially those around her age.
From now on, we'll see what others say.
But she understood. How could she let Luo Weijia's plan succeed? She laughed along, "A contest of who's more fake? I'm not afraid either."
"Director Luo, please don't talk nonsense. Everyone here is in the same boat as me. Why don't you give them a little less? That way, everyone will have an easier time."
"It's not that I'm complaining, it's just that my basket is heavier than that auntie's. The one I carried for her wasn't this heavy."
This time, Song Lili looked at Luo Weijia with a genuine smile—well, a smile of watching the show, but of course, it had to be genuine.
She was genuinely just there to watch the show.
Since neither Luo Weijia nor Xu Youcai dared to openly make things difficult for her, she still wanted everyone to know that she had been harassed today.
She pointed to an auntie from the Second Brigade whom she occasionally encountered but who was a very kind person, and spoke with a smile.
“Auntie, why don’t you try my basket? These seeds are really heavy. Even if I tell you, Director Luo won’t believe me.”
She could carry all these things on her back, and if it weren't for what happened today, she would have carried them with her. But with Luo Weijia and Xu Youcai around, she just didn't want to do as they wished.
The woman named by Song Lili didn't hesitate and immediately put down her basket, saying, "Okay, I'll try. If it's really heavy, I'll take some out for you."
This aunt didn't think that giving Song Lili some of her things would be an advantage for her.
Her thinking was simple: if it was too heavy, she would take it out; the children were still young, and she had to act within her limits.
Naïve and unaware, she was caught up in a power struggle between Song Lili and Luo Weijia, and she was the innocent person who had been dragged into it.
She walked over and was about to take the basket from Song Lili's hands when Xu Youcai, rather rudely and even roughly, snatched the basket from Song Lili, preventing the aunt from touching it.
Because he used a lot of force, Song Lili lost her balance and was almost pulled to the ground, which made her furious.
She quickly pulled the aunt standing next to her to steady herself, and looked at Xu Youcai with some anger, "Accountant Xu, what are you doing?"
Such a strange action, aren't you afraid that others will become even more suspicious? A sly glint flashed in Song Lili's eyes.
Just as Song Lili had predicted, everyone else looked at Xu Youcai strangely when they saw him doing this, not understanding what he was doing, and suddenly felt that something seemed off about what had happened today.
Luo Weijia was furious. Xu Youcai, that idiot, couldn't you have come up with a better way to stop people? This rudeness is just a clear indication that something is wrong.
Luo Weijia had no choice but to be forced into a corner, so he could only bite the bullet and say, "Accountant Xu, you can't be so impatient if you care about Lili."
“We all know you did this because you were afraid she would bully you. People who don’t know the situation might think you’re bullying a young girl.”
There was no other way; the two of them were now in the same boat, and he couldn't just abandon them.
Otherwise, if Xu Youcai is exposed, he will also suffer.
"Lili, your aunt doesn't need to come. I'll try. Maybe we've made a mistake?"
As he spoke, he took the basket from Xu Youcai's hand with one hand and tried to lift it, but it was too heavy and the basket sank down and crashed heavily to the ground.
Now, no one needs to try it to know that the basket is very heavy; otherwise, even if the seeds carried by the children were heavy, they wouldn't make such a sound.
Although it is difficult for an adult male, he can still lift it with one hand.
As can be seen from the scene just now, this weight is far greater than that of adults, comparable to the weight that adults carry on their backs.
Those who had initially blamed Song Lili for being fussy now understood that it really was heavy and they couldn't carry it.
Luo Weijia's face darkened, and he cursed again, calling him an idiot.
Xu Youcai is a fool; he's more trouble than he's worth.
You're making things difficult for Song Lili, but you need to be careful not to go too far. This is obviously heavier than an adult's. How can you not let others find out?
No wonder Song Lili said it directly; she simply couldn't memorize it, so what could she do if she didn't speak up?
If it had been slightly heavier, perhaps Song Lili would have just accepted it? Or just put up with it?
(Song Lili: You're overthinking it. Even if it were more serious, I would still tell you.)
Finally, Luo Weijia could only manage to say, "It seems we made a mistake and gave the adult's to Lili. No wonder he couldn't carry it."
