"What did you steal? I'm old and hard of hearing, so I didn't hear you clearly. Liang Yuemei, please say it again so I can hear it." The old man's white beard trembled as he spoke, and Liang Qi felt it was quite cute.
"She stole potatoes and hid them in this basket." Liang Yuemei said, pointing at the basket in Liu Honghua's hand.
Liu Honghua was still wiping the dirt with a basket on her back. Seeing that everyone was looking at her, she immediately felt aggrieved.
"Bullshit, the three of us were here, watching her put it in, is that stealing?" The old lazy man stopped cursing and said nothing.
Because this is a notorious deadbeat in the village, the kind that can't get away from people and curses at people in a nasty way, so no one wants to mess with him.
"Aren't these the ones that were damaged before? Didn't Sister Liang say that she would give compensation when the recorder comes? Who stole it? What are you doing gathered here?" Da Wa finally understood that these people came to cause trouble, not to work.
When Liang Qi heard about the money, she was ready to exchange it for work points, but at this moment, Da Wa quickly gave her a solution.
She was so poor now that she only had twenty-three dollars and fifty-six cents left, so she could only use a few cents to exchange for these potatoes.
At this time, Sun Huimin's voice rang out: "Why are you two everywhere? Are you two conjoined twins? You are slandering others for stealing things, but I said you stole people."
After Sun Huimin finished speaking, she suddenly covered her mouth and glanced at Liang Qi, but she didn't seem angry.
She is prone to talking too much, and her mouth is like a door with no lock, spilling everything out.
"How can you talk like that? Who are you talking about? You're the one who's cheating on me because you're with that little whore every day."
"Who are you scolding, little whore?" Liang Qi said in a flat tone.
"The little whore is scolding you."
As soon as the sound came out, everyone was in an uproar, covering their mouths to try not to laugh.
"Haha, you admitted it yourself, but you still have to blame others. You are really mean." Sun Huimin scolded him as soon as she caught him.
"You are the bitch, you are all thieves." Liang Yuemei cursed everyone without restraint.
"What are you talking about, thief? Are you relying on the fact that your family members are officials, and others don't dare to touch you? I'm not afraid of you," Sun Huimin looked at Liang Yuemei who was so confident and wanted to take action.
"Just because I'm relying on you, do you dare to fight me? Do you have what it takes?" Liang Yuemei shouted arrogantly.
"Why not? Who cares if I hit a stray dog that's rutting everywhere? Say it again, and you'll know if you try it."
Liang Qi pressed his tongue against the roof of his mouth and squinted his eyes as he looked at the provocative Liang Yuemei.
He weighed the hoe in his hand and thought that with the force on the top of the hoe, he probably couldn't keep the leg. He turned the hoe and gestured with the hoe handle.
Everyone looked at Liang Qi's movements and stepped back in unison. This woman was really crazy.
Liang Qi once again said in a stern voice, "We may not have relatives in official positions, but we have a country and public security. Your family has the final say in this village. Are you planning to overthrow the new socialism?"
Liang Yuemei was holding on, her legs shaking so much that she couldn't move. When she heard Liang Qi's outrageous words, she was so frightened that she shouted, "Don't talk nonsense! When did I say that?"
"Did you just say that? Have you forgotten?" Liang Qi's face turned cold and he didn't want to say anything more.
"I... didn't say anything," Liang Yuemei said, looking at everyone.
When everyone heard what the two said, they realized that Liang Yuemei was indeed very arrogant because her family was an official and she acted in a very arrogant manner, which made everyone angry but unable to speak out.
"I'm going to report it to the police, accusing you of defamation and slander. You also have extremely dangerous thoughts. We need to investigate whether you are a Kuomintang spy or a dangerous element." Liang Qi spoke in a flat tone again, leaving a bomb in the crowd.
After hearing Liang Qi's words, the village party secretary and the village captain who were still listening below could no longer sit still.
"If it's hard to work, don't you want today's work points? What are you all doing gathered here?" The village party secretary and the village team leader were already hearing this with fear in their hearts.
When did Liang Qi become so talkative, turning a small matter into a national event? If we go to the police to report the case, the troublemakers will not be able to return safely, they will definitely suffer a lot.
It is even more likely that these cadres will not be able to stay out of it.
When did this child become so eloquent? Could it be that a divorce has opened his soul?
Others also saw that they were hesitating. Could there be some other tricks going on?
The two village officials looked at Liu Honghua and Liang Yuemei who were causing the trouble. They glared at them fiercely. These two people were from the village party secretary's family, one was their eldest daughter-in-law, and the other was the second uncle's daughter-in-law.
"It's just a small matter, why do we have to report it to the police? They are busy and don't have time. We can solve it ourselves, so why should we trouble the police?" Village captain Chen Baoxiang looked at Liang Qi and said hurriedly.
"Really? We have all been bullied to death, just like the relatives of officials in the old society, who relied on the fact that there were officials in their family to put labels on others. They are trying to torture us to death. Who dares to let the village solve the problem for me? It's a blessing if I am not suffocated to death." Hu Youlai rolled his eyes and said with a grin.
The troublemakers were even more frightened when they heard the words "old society" and Liang Qi's words just now. How dare he say such words? Is he trying to kill himself?
"Look at what you are talking about, Mr. Hu, what about the old society?" The village team leader said hurriedly. Why is he talking more and more nonsense?
"Dear staff, we are not talking nonsense. The two comrades in front of you slandered me for stealing potatoes. This was done in broad daylight. Don't they have to take responsibility for their lies? If a good person is wrongly accused to death, who do you think will be held responsible?" Liang Qi was a little annoyed and wanted to beat them up.
"That's right, the four of us were digging potatoes, and we all knew which ones were broken in the basket.
Qiqi accidentally dug it up, and she felt bad. She was about to finish the work, but the recorder came over and said,
"Use the money to exchange for these broken ones to reduce our losses. How many people in our village are so conscientious as to think of paying compensation for digging them up?" Sun Huimin seemed to have opened up her Ren and Du meridians without a single hitch.
Hu Youlai followed behind and said, "These women don't just work hard. They can't beat others, but they keep looking for trouble all day long. How can the potato digger not break any of them? They just pick on these little things, like farts, and come to annoy people from time to time. Isn't it disgusting?"
Hu Youlai was completely conquered by Liang Qi, especially the fact that he worked very efficiently. More importantly, he was able to motivate him, a man who had been lazy for decades, to work hard again.
Then he must support this girl. What a good child she is. She is more capable than the average man. She is a good match.
