But she was also furious. Luo Weijia and Luo Yuejin were indeed father and son; they used the same things.
Luo Weijia used a stick as thick as an arm to beat people, and Luo Yuejin also used a stick as thick as an arm to beat pigs.
Looking at the pig again, Song Lili had already guessed what had happened.
This pig's back must be broken, otherwise why can't it stand up?
Perhaps because of the pain, the pig was grunting and seemed listless.
Song Lili also tried to help, to see if the pig could stand up, but the result was negative.
The pig's two hind legs were both kneeling on the ground, and it couldn't use its waist to stand up.
Song Lili grabbed a handful of her hair in anger and said to Song Jianshe, "Brother, take Yang Tao home and get a few more people to help. The two of us can't carry it back."
At this moment, Song Jianshe was like a deflated balloon, feeling angry but having nowhere to vent his frustration.
He could only kick the ground a few times in anger, sending several handfuls of dirt flying, before finally taking the starfruit home.
Although the pig wasn't very fat, the whole family took good care of it, feeding it only fresh grass, all for the sake of those half the work points.
Therefore, this pig must weigh at least 100 pounds. The two of them, even with the starfruit, simply couldn't carry it back.
What's more, the pig's back has now been broken.
Once Song Lili was the only one left in the area, she found a rock to sit on and began to think about what to do next.
Should we go find Luo Yuejin and demand an explanation?
That's for sure!
The key point is where to draw the line in this argument: should we confront each other directly, or resolve the issue calmly?
Song Lili estimated that it was most likely the latter method.
Putting everything else aside, the fact that Luo Weijia is the production team leader means that we can't afford to break ties.
Otherwise, what if Luo Weijia tries to make things difficult for her family in the future, specifically arranging dirty and tiring jobs for them?
But she was unwilling to let Luo Yuejin go like that!
Song Lili was frustrated. When would this feeling of being restricted end?
After teaching Qin Hongxia a lesson last time, Song Lili finally understood that she should just continue living her life as usual; living in constant fear was too exhausting.
But if someone has bullied you to this extent, should you fight back?
Song Lili decided to wait and see what Song Yongren's opinion was.
Soon, Song Jianshe arrived with Song Yongren and Yang Mei's father, Yang Weimin. Together with the two siblings, they were enough.
They brought over a worn-out door panel, and the four of them lifted the pig onto the panel, each person lifting one corner, and they easily lifted it up.
On the way, Song Lili asked Song Yongren, "Uncle, where's Fangfang? Where did you put her?"
Song Fang was frightened today, and if she is left alone, she will probably be frightened again.
Song Yongren's voice was deep as he said, "It's at your Uncle Yang's house. Your aunt and Yang Mei are looking after it."
"That's good……"
Song Lili wanted to ask how to resolve this, but with Yang Weimin present, she couldn't ask and had to keep quiet.
Four people carried the pig to the entrance of the pigpen, but didn't put it inside, fearing that if they did, they wouldn't be able to carry it out.
Yang Weimin asked worriedly, "Yongren, what are you going to do with this pig? Leaving it like this isn't a solution!"
Song Yongren was at a loss, afraid that the production team would blame him, and worried that his family would have to pay compensation.
This family already has nearly ten dollars in debt. If they owe more money, when will they ever be able to pay it off?
It felt like a mountain was pressing down on his back. He sighed, "I don't know what to do! This..."
Song Lili knew that Song Yongren probably had no idea either.
Song Lili could only ask, "Uncle Yang, is the pig for the mission slaughtered and sent away by the village every year, or is it sent away directly?"
"One head will be kept in the village for the villagers to share; the rest will be sent away." Yang Weimin knew this.
Song Lili breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay, I understand!"
If all else fails, Song Lili thinks it would be good to keep the pig that was given to the villagers for her own family.
However, she has good ideas, but she doesn't know if others will agree.
If all else fails, this winter, deliver the vegetables to a few more families as a bribe.
Song Lili then asked, "How many pigs are there in our village?"
“Our village is big, so there are five. Four are for the task, and one is kept.”
"Whose family owns pigs?"
“The village head’s family from the first brigade, our two families, Lu Jin’s family from the third brigade, and Liu Caijin’s family from the fourth brigade, that’s five.”
Song Lili pondered that, apart from Luo Weijia's family, the other families had no conflicts or grudges with them, so she should be able to persuade them.
What should be done about Naluo's family?
For a moment, she couldn't think of anything, but she felt a little annoyed. If she really had to let her pig stay, then this time she would have no choice but to let Luo Yuejin go.
Song Lili saw Yang Weimin off and then went to pick up Song Fang.
When they arrived at Yangmei's house, the whole family was there. As soon as Yangmei's mother, Guo Guihua, saw Song Lili, she immediately smiled and said, "Lili, you're here? Have you eaten?"
"Auntie, I've come to pick Fangfang up and take her home. We'll eat as soon as we get back." As she spoke, she looked for Song Fang and saw her on the kang (a heated brick bed).
However, Song Fang was in poor spirits and seemed somewhat fearful, shrinking into herself as if she was afraid of everything.
Song Lili felt a pang of pain in her heart. Her timid younger sister was frightened again!
But she couldn't say anything at Yangmei's house.
She forced a smile and said to Song Fang, "Your sister is here to pick you up. Let's eat when we get home, okay?" As she spoke, she reached out to hug Song Fang.
However, as soon as her hand touched Song Fang's shoulder, Song Fang flinched in pain and hissed.
