Chapter 238 The Hope of the Whole Village



Meng Qidi completely forgot about the incident of meeting Zhao Youwei on the roadside.

"I am studying, and I will definitely not hold the organization back. How is your family?"

On the phone, Ling Xiao's voice was filled with a hint of smile.

I thought she wouldn't call me again after that time.

"I'm not holding you back. I built a biogas plant for my family. But everyone in the village wants to do the same. Jin Ming and I plan to build a bigger company..."

He whispered about his achievements in recent days.

Ling Xiao on the other end was full of surprise, "Does your family need money? If so, tell me."

She has to review, deal with this, and raise pigs at the same time. Can she handle it?

"No, these are just by-products. After taking care of Jin Ming for a while, I can just ignore him."

In fact, she didn't pay much money. Ling Tiansheng's family paid for the septic tank in one lump sum, and although the other families did not pay in full at one time, they also paid half of the deposit.

The cement factory and the brick and tile factory signed contracts and were paid on a monthly basis. The blacksmith in the county town also paid her on a monthly basis, so she had to pay for the leather pipe in advance.

Meng Qidi muttered, "I'm not stupid for not making money. These are just some side jobs. They're dirty and tiring. I don't even look down on them."

I've been busy these days and haven't been to Ling Laosi's shabby house for several days. The old lady is looking after it.

Ling Xiao chuckled and asked in a low voice, "So what do you think?"

"What are you thinking about?" Meng Qidi didn't react to what he asked for a moment, and after a moment she felt uncomfortable.

"I don't want to think about it. I want a divorce. Will you agree?"

"No." Ling Xiao said without even thinking about it.

"That's it, why are you still talking about what I think..." Meng Qidi snorted.

"If we don't divorce, I won't do anything to you. I just want to ask so that you can feel at ease."

Ling Xiao was somewhat helpless. If she insisted on getting a divorce, he would have no choice but to let her go...

Meng Qidi curled her lips and said, "I don't believe you. How is she now?"

Fearing that someone might have ears, Meng Qidi did not mention Ling Jinyue's name.

"Wait a moment, I'll ask. Shen Xing, come in for a moment."

Meng Qidi paused, "You don't know her situation?"

"Isn't this Shen Xing who is in charge? I don't have time to take care of her." Ling Xiao explained in a low voice, "Shen Xing came in, you come and ask him?"

Meng Qidi shook her head, "No, no, just make sure she's okay..."

After talking to Ling Xiao for a few minutes, Meng Qidi hung up. The long-distance call was too expensive.

After leaving the captain's house, Meng Qidi went straight back.

At the entrance of the village, Ge Mei pulled Zhao Youwei, who was a little distracted, and said, "Brother Youwei, let's go."

Ever since she was threatened by Meng Qidi last time, she didn't want to confront her face to face. Meng Qidi was lucky, so she could only avoid her first.

She now just wishes Zhao Youwei would stay away from Meng Qidi.

Zhao Youwei came back to his senses somewhat disappointedly, "Let's go."

He said this to Meng Qidi at the intersection, thinking that she would realize that he was going back to the city, but in the end, she still didn't come...

Thinking of her unintentional look, Zhao Youwei felt a little uncomfortable. He turned his head to look at the village, then bent down and picked up the bag on the ground.

"Let's go, or we'll miss the bus."

As soon as he came out of Lingjia Village, Ge Mei relaxed completely, finally getting rid of the oppressive feeling given by Meng Qidi.

Ge Mei and Zhao Youwei left today. Meng Qidi said she was innocent and she really didn't know anything about it. They didn't mention it when they met, but just asked her if she wanted to go back to the city...

It was good enough that she didn't scold him harshly.

"You don't have to blame yourself. Youwei left secretly, saying that he was afraid of leaving the village. Xiaoqi, I want to build a biogas plant in our family. Your aunt is not in good health, so it would be easier if we build one."

Ling Hanfang explained the purpose of his visit. It was not that he did not come to see Xiao Qi before, but he was too busy. It was winter now and he had just arranged the farm work in the village. After the college entrance examination, he would start to settle the work points. There were a lot of things to do.

We used to have Zhao Youwei, but now I have to do it myself.

“Uncle Han Fang, I am in charge of this matter now. My sister-in-law is preparing for the exam. Let’s go over there and talk. I promise you will be satisfied.”

Ling Jinming came in and drank some well water before speaking.

Ling Hanfang glanced at the book in Meng Qidi's hand and said with a smile, "Okay, let's not disturb Xiaoqi, let's go talk over there."

Meng Qidi...

Time flies, and in the cold winter, the day of college entrance examination arrived in the blink of an eye.

Meng Qidi was not sure how many people from other villages took the college entrance examination. Apart from the educated youth who had not returned to the city, she was the only one from Lingjia Village.

Although statistics say that a certain number of people took the college entrance examination across the country that year, when you really go to a small village, there are only one or two people.

In those years, people could not even get enough to eat, so who had extra money to go to school?

Meng Qidi planned to stay in a hotel in the county town the day before so as not to be late the next day.

"Xiao Qi, don't be nervous, you are the only hope of our village."

Ling Hanfang handed over the bag in his hand, "This is what your aunt made for you."

Meng Qidi declined helplessly, "No need to get these. I can't take them away. It's a waste."

"That's right, sister-in-law is too polite. Don't worry, I will take care of Xiaoqi." Wang Jinhua hugged her granddaughter.

They were worried about Xiaoqi going alone, but also worried about leaving the child at home, so they finally decided to bring Xiaochengzi with them to take the exam.

There were quite a few people coming to see him off at the entrance of the village. Someone said, "Apart from those educated youth, if Xiaoqi passes the exam, he will be the only college student in our village..."

Everyone exclaimed, if you hadn’t told us, we wouldn’t have discovered it yet.

Ling Hanfang glanced at everyone, somewhat proudly, "Otherwise, why do you think I said she is the hope of the whole village? Okay, stop crowding around, let Xiaoqi go to the county town as soon as possible."

After sending away the villagers who came to watch the fun, Ling Hanfang asked Jin Ming to take the people to the town.

After the few people left, the village entrance became quiet. Luo Xia, who was not far away, snorted in dissatisfaction. If she didn't want to make money from Meng Qidi, she wouldn't let her son follow her like a slave!

Turning her head to look at the west of the village, Luo Xia's eyes flashed with excitement. The family was finally not at home...

Here, as soon as she got on the tractor, Wang Jinhua looked at the village uneasily.

"Mom, what's wrong?" Meng Qidi asked worriedly while holding Xiao Chengzi.

"I suddenly feel a little uneasy. I guess it's because I haven't been away from home for a long time. I'm not used to it. I don't know if the house will be a mess when I come back."

The last time Ling Xiao was hospitalized doesn’t count. She couldn’t see him and was anxious, so she didn’t pay attention to these things.

"It's okay. Those dogs are watching over the house. If they make a mess when we get home, just put them in the pig pen!"

Ling Jinming, who was driving in front, turned his head and said, "Don't worry, Auntie. I'll take care of the house. No one will starve."

After being comforted by the two, the uneasiness in her heart disappeared. Maybe she was overthinking it.
