The villagers just felt that what Li Weiguo said seemed to make a lot of sense.
But those Red Guards were genuinely terrified; their hearts pounded with anxiety.
Because what Li Weiguo said is correct. That's exactly what it says in the Little Red Book. Not a single word Li Weiguo said is wrong.
If you say that, it seems like they really are going against the leader.
Thinking of those slogans defending the leaders and the crazy actions of those people, many Red Guards turned pale and swayed.
Even the boy named Junzi, who had started the biggest commotion, didn't dare to speak anymore.
He dared not do it in front of so many people, and since Li Weiguo was basing his argument on the Little Red Book, he dared not do it even more.
For a moment, everyone fell silent; the stage was eerily quiet.
Li Weiguo snorted coldly. He's just spoiled. If he's not taught a lesson, he'll really think he's the best in the world.
"What else do you have to say? Do you still want work points?" Li Weiguo asked, squinting his eyes.
Who would dare to say they want it? Even if they thought it, they wouldn't dare to say it.
Seeing that no one spoke, Li Weiguo then said, "If you don't speak, I'll assume you don't want it anymore. Is there a problem with the work points?"
"No," the people in the audience shook their heads in unison.
"Alright, since there are no problems, let's go and distribute the grain." Li Weiguo gestured for Zhang Qinghua to lead everyone away.
Once everyone had followed Zhang Qinghua to the warehouse, Li Weiguo finally breathed a sigh of relief and said to Yang Weimin, who was also relaxing, "This time we really owe a lot to that girl Lili."
If it weren't for those few words, we really wouldn't have been able to keep those brats in check.
Yang Weimin nodded in agreement, "Yes, this time it could have gotten really out of hand. Luckily, that girl had already thought of that."
Song Lili had a good relationship with Daqing and Yang Mei, so neither of them ever thought of suppressing Song Lili.
In my heart, I felt only gratitude towards her, grateful that she had solved a huge problem for me.
Song Lili didn't follow them any further; she knew that the matter was now perfectly resolved.
Quick, accurate, ruthless, and simple—the problem was solved.
From now on, if anyone dares to bring this up again, anyone in Hongqi Village can perfectly refute it.
Song Lili suddenly realized that the Little Red Book was not entirely useless; it had many merits.
She should take more precautions in the future, just in case.
With Song Jianshe and Xia Niu going, Song Lili wasn't worried about the food at home going unclaimed; she just wanted to go home.
However, she didn't expect to see Lü Qiaosheng standing not far away, looking at her as if he was waiting for her.
Song Lili pursed her lips, still somewhat wary of Lü Qiaosheng.
This person is clearly intelligent; she knew that back when she was dealing with Luo Weijia.
She was also afraid that Lü Qiaosheng might have some bad intentions, so she took precautions and let Lü Qiaosheng do all the superficial things.
Lu Qiaosheng did it without any hesitation, which made Song Lili even more wary.
Upon seeing him again, Song Lili instinctively tensed up, but then she thought that she hadn't left any evidence against him, so she slowly walked over.
"Second Captain" Song Lili greeted him with a smile, after all, he was considered an elder.
“Lili, I was just looking for you,” Lü Qiaosheng said with a smile.
"What is it?" Song Lili asked directly, without beating around the bush.
"Do you have a grudge against Xu Youcai?" Lu Qiaosheng was taken aback by Song Lili's question, but after realizing what she meant, he asked directly.
"What did you say?" Song Lili was a little confused. Lu Qiaosheng had come to her to talk about Xu Youcai.
It took her a while to process all the information, and she quickly shook her head, "No, how could I have a grudge against him?"
Lu Qiaosheng gave Song Lili a deep look. "I heard Xu Youcai say that you should be criticized and denounced. I don't know why he said that, but you'd better be careful if you kill someone."
After Lu Qiaosheng finished speaking, he left, leaving Song Lili bewildered in the wind.
So, she was being petty and judging him by her own standards? Actually, Lü Qiaosheng came to remind her?
However, deep down, Song Lili just couldn't trust Lü Qiaosheng. She always felt that he wasn't as trustworthy as he appeared.
However, Song Lili's eyes narrowed. Xu Youcai—if Lü Qiaosheng hadn't passed away, she would have almost forgotten about him.
This person is actually working with Luo Juan to try and get rid of her. Should she strike first and bring Xu Youcai down?
Song Lili shook her head. She still couldn't bring herself to do it. Even though she knew Xu Youcai had bad intentions towards her, she didn't want to take the initiative.
However, she had already prepared evidence against Xu Youcai, and as long as Xu Youcai dared to make a move, she would be able to retaliate without any pressure.
After all, everyone wants to live.
With Lü Qiaosheng's unexpected turn of events, Song Lili's good mood, which had been affected by dealing with those people, turned from sunny to cloudy.
When Song Lili saw the grain her family had received, her mood worsened even more.
Song Jianshe only brought back two large sacks of wheat.
Song Lili stared at Song Jianshe and his wife with a gloomy face, not saying a word, exuding a low-pressure atmosphere.
Song Lili's silence only amplified the oppressive atmosphere, leaving Song Jianshe and Xia Niu, who had prepared their excuses, speechless.
Even Song Yongren, this time, had a somber face and didn't say a word.
Song Lili was filled with remorse. If only she had gone with them, things wouldn't have turned out this way.
She never expected Song Jianshe to be so stupid; was his brain filled with shit?
Finally, Song Jianshe couldn't bear it anymore and admitted, "Dad... Lili, my... my father-in-law's family has less grain, so I... I shared some of ours with her."
The more Song Jianshe spoke, the more guilty he felt, and his previous idea that the magistrate wouldn't blame him was naturally shattered.
He saw the disappointment in Da Da's eyes, and even more so, he felt the frost in Da Mei's eyes. So, did he make a mistake again this time?
Song Lili laughed in exasperation, "Song Jianshe, you're quite generous! We work so hard all year to save up this little bit of food, and someone just takes it to give as a favor?"
"You've only been married to her for less than a year, and you've already given her several years' worth of things. Are you trying to cut back on your father and sister's food rations to subsidize your mother-in-law?"
"No...it wasn't me, I...I just thought that there was a way for my family to not go hungry, so I gave it to my mother-in-law."
Now Song Lili was even more furious. "You think you can avoid going hungry? Is that what you're thinking? Do you have the ability to ensure that you and your family don't go hungry?"
"Song Jianshe, where do you get the nerve to think your family won't go hungry? Even if there really is a way to keep us from starving, it's my idea, Song Lili's. What does it have to do with you?"
