Chapter 21 The Weird Village Chief



When she stepped into the house, Zhang Meng realized that she really valued her family in this life.

"Sister, you're back." Little Zhang Tao, who was playing with mud and sand in the yard, was the first to see Zhang Meng coming back.

The little guy hasn't seen his sister for several days and has been missing her very much. He has been asking his grandmother where his sister has gone these days.

This time, when he saw his sister whom he hadn't seen for several days, he happily threw himself into Zhang Meng's arms and said, "Sister, where have you been? Taoer missed you so much."

Zhang Meng looked at her brother in her arms, and she seemed to hear the sound of her brother sobbing in her arms.

"What's wrong? Tell me, what happened to our little Tao? Who bullied him?"

Little Zhang Tao raised his tearful face and sobbed as he answered, "No, no one bullied me. I, I just missed my sister. Where have you been? Grandma said you went out for something. What did you do?"

Zhang Meng wiped his tears and answered him softly, "Sister, I'm out saving people. Is Xiaotao being well behaved at home?"

"Be good." Little Zhang Tao nodded vigorously.

Grandma Zhang, who was busy in the kitchen, vaguely heard her grandson talking to someone in the yard. She hurried out to take a look and found that it was her granddaughter who had returned.

"Meng'er, you're back." Grandma Zhang stood at the kitchen door with red eyes and called out to Zhang Meng.

As soon as Zhang Meng saw her grandmother standing at the kitchen door, she immediately took her brother's hand and walked towards her, "Grandma, I'm back."

Grandma Zhang responded, "Okay, okay, I'm glad you're back, I'm glad you're back."

A pair of worried eyes were looking at Zhang Meng.

"Sit in the room with your brother for a while, the meal will be ready soon." Grandma Zhang wiped her eyes and began to speak.

Zhang Meng had been staying in the ancient tomb and eating dry food these days. Now when she saw the familiar aroma of the dishes made by her grandma, she immediately felt starving.

"If you like it, eat more. After you left, Comrade He, the one you accompanied into the county town with last time, sent a lot of things to our house. I didn't dare to accept them at first, but they said you helped their family a lot and told me to accept them. I didn't touch these things and just left them in the house. You decide what to do with them."

Zhang Meng was eating her food and listening to Grandma Zhang's story about what had happened in the past few days. What she didn't expect was that He Jincheng actually sent things to her house.

"Grandma, since this is given to us, let's take it. I did help their family a lot last time, so it's not too much to accept what they give us."

Their family is living in such a difficult situation now, she doesn't want to give up these things just for the sake of a little face.

Grandma Zhang nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take it."

After dinner, Zhang Meng, who was extremely sleepy, fell on the bed as soon as she took a hot shower and fell into a deep sleep.

At noon the next day, after lunch, Zhang Meng, who had missed work for so many days, found the village chief of Zhangjia Village.

"Oh, Xiao Meng is here, come, please sit down." Zhang Meng, who had prepared a lot of explanations, was warmly welcomed by the village chief as soon as he entered his house.

"Village Chief, I, I came here to apologize to you. I, I didn't mean to skip work."

"I know. Sanpo has already come to explain to me. It's not your fault. Don't worry. If you have other things to do in the future, just go ahead and do them. I will cover for you on your side."

"Village, village chief, what did you say?"

Village Chief Zhang chuckled and rubbed his hands together. "Xiao Meng, I've watched you grow up. Can you help me with something?"

Zhang Meng hurriedly said, "Village Chief, you speak."

"It's like this. My father-in-law's family recently encountered a strange thing. When they were building a new house, they dug up an incorrupt corpse while digging the foundation. Now their family is in chaos because of this incident, and now they are involved in a lawsuit. Can you see if you can help me?"

Zhang Meng smiled and said, "Uncle, I didn't expect you to believe in this kind of thing."

Village Chief Zhang sighed, "I've always believed it in my heart, but I'm afraid people will report me, so I can only pretend not to believe it."

Zhang Meng hesitated.

The more people knew about what she was doing, the greater the danger she would be in. She really didn't want to take on such a thing easily.

Village Chief Zhang didn't get her response for a long time, so he immediately continued to persuade her, "Xiao Meng, just promise to help me, okay? If you encounter any difficulties in the village in the future, I will definitely help you."

Zhang Meng looked at the village chief Zhang who was begging her, and made some calculations in her mind. If she didn't agree, she would offend the village chief Zhang, and then she and her grandmother would have a hard time in the village.

If she agreed and helped him, he would remember her kindness and, as the head of the village, could lend a hand if he encountered difficulties in the future. After some calculation, Zhang Meng finally knew what she should do.

"Okay, I'll go check it out."

"Really, thank you so much." Village chief Zhang said with gratitude.

Because of this favor, Zhang Meng got the good news that she could leave her job at any time if something happened, without having to worry about being deducted work points.

Coming out of the village chief's house, Zhang Meng walked on the road, looking at the villagers busy in the fields not far away, with a slight smile on his lips. It was really nice to see everyone busy at this time again.

Unconsciously, she passed through a thick bush. Suddenly, a tall man rushed out from the side and blocked Zhang Meng's way.

Seeing who was coming, Zhang Meng's face immediately became long. She looked at Li Hao in front of her with displeasure, who was grinning at her, and said, "Get out of the way! Don't block my way."

Li Hao looked at Zhang Meng in front of him and couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded. How come after just not seeing her for a while, he felt that Zhang Meng seemed to have become much more beautiful, with a rosy complexion and skin as smooth as a baby's.

Swallowing his saliva, Li Hao coaxed Zhang Meng in a gentle voice, "Xiao Meng, you've been angry for so long, it's time to calm down. Do you think we should reconcile?"

Zhang Meng looked at Li Hao who was trying to please her at this moment, and a hint of disdain flashed in her eyes. In her previous life, she coaxed this man, but in the end, this man actually started a family with another woman behind her back.

"Li Hao, I don't know what you're talking about. I think I've made it very clear to you. We're done. Do you understand?"

Li Hao's smile froze, and he reached out to pull her hand anxiously.

As soon as his hand touched her arm, Zhang Meng felt a wave of nausea rising from her throat. She quickly shook off his hand and ran to the side to vomit a few times.
