These days, she has been thinking about taking leave to go to the provincial capital as soon as she can get a firm foothold. She must go to the provincial capital to see Mr. Lu. At this time in her previous life, Mr. Lu had already fallen ill and died not long after.
So when she got into trouble, Mr. Lu had no idea.
Luo Darong was puzzled when he heard she was going to apply, but after hearing her story, he approved it without hesitation. He was also worried that Zhang Xingrong didn't have enough money, so he wanted to lend her some.
Zhang Xingrong certainly wouldn't take Luo Darong's money. "Captain, please take a look at the stone. I'll be back tomorrow."
"Go ahead, Stone, don't worry!"
Zhang Xingrong handed over a wooden basin and covered it with a cloth: "Captain, this bowl of jelly, you and Shitou and the others will share it!"
Yesterday, she'd picked a lot of jelly fruit and tossed it into her space, ready to eat whenever she wanted. She'd also made two bowls of jelly yesterday and left them in her space. Everyone was short of food these days, and she wasn't that shameless. She couldn't possibly let Shitou stay at someone else's house without giving him anything.
"No need!" Luo Darong quickly declined, "Keep it for yourself!"
Zhang Xingrong laughed: "Captain, this thing won't keep for a few days. If you don't eat it, it will go bad!"
As she said that, she put the wooden basin in Luo Darong's hand, took the production team certificate and left.
Luo Darong lifted the cloth and saw half a basin of jelly inside, with a small bowl of garlic, chili and soy sauce next to it. His mouth was watering with greed! But there was still some time before lunch, so he had to take the wooden basin back and put it away, covering it tightly with a wooden lid to prevent mice from crawling in.
Zhang Xingrong went to Zhangjia Village and first looked for Zhang Xinglian, but Zhang Xinglian didn't really want to see her.
"Where do you want to hide? How is the money I asked you to prepare?"
Zhang Xinglian pretended to be deaf and dumb: "What money?"
Zhang Xingrong smiled. "You won't give it to me, right? Fine. I'll go to the army right now and tell Lu Ran and the others that you went back on your word!"
Sure enough, Zhang Xinglian became much more obedient after Lu Ran was mentioned. She gritted her teeth several times and said, "Just wait!"
Zhang Xingrong waited for a long time, and Lian Ya came back with the money.
"Only forty, we'll deal with the rest later!"
Zhang Xingrong didn't take the money: "Let's go to Lu Ran and talk it over. I don't want forty!"
"You...you think Lu Ran will see you?" Zhang Xinglian was unwilling.
Zhang Xingrong sneered, not afraid at all: "It doesn't matter if I don't see you, I can wait. I have plenty of time anyway!"
Thinking about what happened yesterday, no matter how unwilling she was, Zhang Xinglian still took out all the money and gave it to Zhang Xingrong.
"I didn't get a hundred, I only got seventy-five!" She tried to persuade him, but if Lu Ran hadn't been mentioned, her mother would never have given her the money.
Zhang Xingrong knew she hadn't lied this time, so she counted the money and left. However, she didn't leave immediately. Instead, she went to find Zhang Guokuan and his wife, and Aunt Dahua and her husband with a basket. It was almost lunchtime, so she wanted to give them some jelly!
"Oh my, the stinking yellow broom is gone, how did you make the jelly?" Aunt Dahua screamed. The remaining few people also gathered around.
The villagers here were extremely jealous when they saw Zhang Xingrong delivering food again.
"Why does this girl have to deliver food to others every day? Be careful that she will starve to death when there is no food in the future!"
"Why does she have jelly? Is there still stinking yellow broom on the mountain over there?"
Everyone couldn't help drooling as they talked about it. It would be so comfortable to have a bite of ice-cold jelly in the hot summer!
Even Lian Ya, who had never taken Zhang Xingrong seriously, was furious. Zhang Xingrong had taken so much money from her, but she didn't even give her a bite to eat!
