While Song Yongren was in the main room, his hands were still busy, but he kept a close eye on Song Lili and Zhang Qinghua.
Seeing how close the two of them were, seemingly very intimate, I couldn't help but feel worried, and my heart was filled with conflicting emotions.
What exactly is going on between Lili and Qinghua?
Song Yongren was torn. He wanted to know the details, but he was also afraid that there was nothing between the two of them and that he would ruin their relationship and prevent them from seeing each other again.
In the end, all I could think of was telling Lili to keep her distance from Qinghua in the future, since Qinghua was a grown man and had reached the age where he should be engaged.
Song Lili over there had no idea how much Song Yongren was worried about her.
As Zhang Qinghua recounted Xu Youcai's interpersonal relationships in detail, she mentally processed the plan.
"Accounting should involve ledgers. We need to find a way to get our hands on them. Ultimately, the most original and authentic ledgers are the most fundamental evidence."
If it's a perfectly fabricated set of fake accounts, then it's useless to them.
“Let Daqing handle this,” Zhang Qinghua said. “He’s the most suitable person for this job. His father is the village party secretary, so no one will suspect anything if he comes and goes as he pleases.”
Song Lili nodded, that was indeed the case. Daqing went to investigate under the pretext of looking for Li Weiguo, and no one would suspect anything.
After all, it's just a son looking for his father, what are you going to doubt?
Song Lili handed the task over to Zhang Qinghua, ignoring Daqing's smug and cheeky demeanor.
In the end, as long as he does it, she won't care about the methods.
Therefore, she had no idea that Zhang Qinghua, with his cunning, had volunteered to make the sesame filling.
Then, after this incident, he was severely beaten by Li Weiguo.
She knew none of these things.
This time, Song Lili was more troubled by Song Yongren. She stared at him, speechless, and really didn't know how to answer him.
After seeing Zhang Qinghua off, Song Yongren seemed preoccupied and looked gloomy.
Song Lili thought it was because her family had been busy lately and no one was making him feel bad, but after pressing him for details, she discovered that it wasn't like that at all.
He was actually worried about her and Zhang Qinghua?
"Big brother, have you forgotten that I'm only fourteen years old? I'm still young. Aren't you overthinking this?"
Besides, all her interactions with Zhang Qinghua were business-related; there's no indication that their relationship was anything more than ordinary.
If we're talking about a relationship, it's just a friendship, purer than clear water.
How could he have misunderstood that?
Song Yongren, however, did not think like Song Lili: "You are young, but Qinghua is already grown up, he's a young man. If you hang out with him every day, people will gossip."
"DaDa doesn't want others to say bad things about you, Lili, please be more careful in the future."
Song Yongren knew that the two children's relationship was mainly based on the things that happened in the greenhouse, and that they might be closer because of Yangmei and Daqing.
But gossip is a powerful force, and he had to consider his daughter's feelings.
Song Lili was helpless; Song Yongren's expression was too solemn, making it impossible for her to say anything indifferent.
I could only helplessly agree, "I understand, I'll be careful."
At worst, we can just avoid people when we meet in the future.
If Song Yongren knew what Song Lili was thinking, he would probably be furious.
But at this moment, he knows nothing.
Four or five days later, early in the morning, before dawn, Wang Daming had already arrived at Song Lili's doorstep.
As soon as Song Jianshe stepped out of the main room, he saw something at the entrance of the courtyard. When he went over to take a look, he saw Wang Daming and the carriage he had brought.
"Da Ming, why are you here so early?" This suddenly startled him.
Wang Daming rubbed his stiff fingers and said, "I was just worried that you wouldn't be home if it got late and you were out in the fields."
Otherwise, why would he deliberately make things difficult for himself? It's so early in the morning, before dawn, and he can't even find a car.
If it weren't for Song Lili's bad temper, he wouldn't have been able to do this.
"You're all up? Who's coming with me to the field to harvest cabbages now?"
"Let Lili go with you. I'll go call her." Song Jianshe let Wang Daming and the carriage in before going to call Song Lili.
In fact, Song Lili had gotten up long ago and heard that Wang Daming had arrived. She was surprised when she heard Song Jianshe's footsteps approaching.
She opened the door herself. "Brother, you make breakfast. I'll take Wang Daming and Fangfang with me." Song Fang got up with her.
Song Jianshe didn't say he would go himself; his two younger sisters and Wang Daming could finish in half an hour, so he didn't need to.
Besides, Wang Daming also brought a coachman with him, who can help with heavy work.
He prepared breakfast, just in time.
Song Lili and Song Fang are both used to manual labor and are quick and efficient. Wang Daming, on the other hand, has never worked in the fields before, but he can still pull up cabbages.
The three people quickly pulled everything out, weighed it, calculated the money, and settled the payment—all at lightning speed.
By the time Song Jianshe came to call for help, Wang Daming was already preparing to leave.
"Daming, come have breakfast with Lili, I've already made it."
"No need for construction, I'm in a hurry to get to work, so I won't eat. I'll eat when we get to town. You guys eat quickly, we still have to go to the fields later."
Song Lili also suggested, "Why don't you eat something? You came so early, you must be starving."
"No need, I'm in a hurry to deliver the vegetables to my cousin."
Song Lili stopped trying to persuade him, having already guessed to some extent what Wang Daming was thinking.
It's likely they were in a hurry to deliver the food, and it's also true they didn't dare leave it behind.
