It was noon, and every household was preparing lunch, and people who went to work in the fields had returned.
Normally, if there is any movement in the village, the neighbors will know it clearly, not to mention that there are many people washing vegetables and clothes by the river.
The woman's loud crying had already attracted people nearby, but Li Mengyue and the woman were so focused on the drowning Zebao that they didn't notice that there were people standing around them.
It was not until she rescued the person that Li Mengyue realized that many people were looking at her.
But Li Mengyue didn't take it seriously. After all, she was not familiar with the villagers.
Just as Li Mengyue was about to leave, a grandfather with a long beard stood in front of her, looked at her, opened his mouth to say something, but didn't know how to start.
Li Mengyue hurried back to eat and asked politely, "Grandpa, what can I do for you?"
The old man was a barefoot doctor in Xingying Village. His surname was Yang and everyone usually called him Doctor Yang.
"Um, young lady, I'm Dr. Yang from the village."
Li Mengyue didn't know what the old man wanted to say, so she just stared at him.
I don't know what he thought of, but he finally made up his mind to say what he wanted to say.
"Girl, I see your method of rescuing drowning people is very unique. Can I use this method to save people in the future?"
"Of course, it's not a secret."
Hearing Li Mengyue's affirmative words, Doctor Yang's eyes instantly turned red, and he was about to kneel down and kowtow to Li Mengyue, but Li Mengyue was quick to help Doctor Yang up.
Seeing that a lot of time had been wasted, Li Mengyue quickly took the twins back.
When I got home, I saw that my mother had just prepared dinner and put it on the table. My originally depressed mood instantly improved a lot.
Old Mrs. Li originally wanted to find trouble, but when she saw the dishes on the table, she immediately stopped thinking about finding trouble.
But she still didn't want Li Mengyue to eat properly. Just when she was about to turn over all the dishes on the table.
Li Mengyue noticed Mrs. Li's motives and just gave her a light dry cough, and Mrs. Li immediately behaved herself.
Without Old Lady Li causing trouble, everyone was very satisfied with the meal.
Especially the twins, they had never eaten such delicious food since they could remember.
Just after dinner, many people came to the Li family.
Because the gate was kicked down by Li Mengyue and there was no time to repair it, five or six people rushed into the Li family yard at once.
The people who came were Zebao's family. In addition to Zebao's grandparents, parents, there was also a boy and a girl. It seemed that the whole family had come.
Old Lady Li saw that the village chief's wife, who had always been at odds with her, brought people to her house and thought they were here to cause trouble.
She had not gotten the best of Li Mengyue and was furious. When she saw the village head's wife, she stood up from the stool, put her hands on her hips, and started cursing at her with all her might.
"What's the matter, Zhou Juan? Don't think that just because you married the village chief, you can ignore me. I'm telling you, this is my home, not a place where you can act recklessly."
Before the village head's wife could speak, Old Lady Li spoke again, shouting excitedly: "Come and see, the village head's wife came to my house to bully people."
The village head's wife was so angry at the shameless look of Old Lady Li that her heart ached.
If her grandson's savior had not been at her house, she would not have set foot in the Li family's gate even if Old Lady Li had knelt down to invite her.
Village chief Li, who was standing nearby, saw that Old Lady Li's scolding became more and more outrageous, and his face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
He didn't speak directly to Mrs. Li, but turned to Old Man Li and said slowly, "Li Gui, this is how you manage your household."
Old man Li finally reacted and quickly grabbed the old lady Li who was scolding him.
Old Mrs. Li was enjoying herself cursing, so she reached out and pushed Old Man Li hard, causing him to stagger and fall to the ground with a thud.
At the moment when Old Man Li fell to the ground, Old Mrs. Li's scolding stopped abruptly, and she saw the head of the household being pushed down by herself.
She was in a panic trying to help Old Man Li up, but the more panicked she was, the more likely she was to make mistakes, and she fell on Old Man Li several times in a row.
After the two finally stood up straight, the village chief Li Yu turned his attention to Li Mengyue.
In fact, as soon as he entered the Li family yard, he noticed that Miss Zebao had been rescued.
He was not at home yesterday, and only heard from his family that the Li family's son and daughter came to see him.
When he heard this, he felt that life had not been easy for Li An and his wife. After Li Ran disappeared, their eldest son Li Fei went out alone to look for his sister and there had been no news of him for two years.
Yesterday, the twins were almost sold, but unexpectedly, Li An's biological daughter showed up and saved Yu and Hao.
Therefore, even before Village Chief Li met Li Mengyue, he had a very good impression of her.
Furthermore, Li Mengyue happened to save Zebao, which made Village Chief Li even more concerned.
Now, seeing the little girl standing aside calmly, her demeanor made him suddenly think he was seeing the daughter of a wealthy family.
"Girl, I heard from the old woman that you saved Zebao. If you have any difficulties in the future, feel free to come to me."
Li Mengyue saved the man without expecting anything in return, but she would not be so foolish as to refuse the village chief's kindness.
After all, this was ancient times, and the village chief still had a very high status in the village.
With the village chief's protection, it would be easier for her to do things in the future.
Li Mengyue was caught off guard by the sudden surprise and hadn't figured out how to respond. The village chief's wife was afraid that the old man would scare the little girl, so she stepped forward to smooth things over.
