Chapter 276 A Gentleman's Revenge
"Li Xu is back. The Li family is picking vegetables in the fields. They have called Dafu and the others to help. It looks like they are going to pick all the vegetables in the fields." One of them said to Li Danian breathlessly.
When Li Danian heard this, he was furious: "What?"
He sneered: "I knew it, Li Zhiming clearly didn't want to help us. He told us he couldn't help us, and then he picked all the vegetables in the field."
"Yes, Li Zhiming's family has so many vegetables in their fields that they can harvest them all. Our families combined don't have that many, so why can't they harvest them all? It's obvious that they don't want to harvest our vegetables!"
"Let's go and ask him for an explanation!"
Li Danian glanced at the other two people and said, "What explanation do you want? Even if this explanation comes, do you think Li Zhiming will help you? Li Yong and Dafu are both unscrupulous people."
Li Yong and Da Fu, those two brats, have been wearing the same pants since they were young.
If they make trouble now, they will be the only ones to suffer.
"What should we do? Are we just going to swallow this anger?"
Li Danian curled his lips and said, "It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. They are from the same village, so it is not difficult to teach them a lesson."
Several people smiled at each other and understood what Li Danian meant.
On the Li family's side, several people worked hard, but by seven o'clock in the evening, they had only picked about 30,000 kilograms.
There were still several thousand kilograms of grapes left in the field. Li Xu consoled him, "It's okay. I'll take all the remaining ones. They'll probably be sold out in a few days."
After a day of rain and a busy day, the whole family was exhausted.
After dinner, they boiled some water and took turns taking a hot bath, then fell asleep almost immediately.
After a busy day, Li Lei completely forgot about picking up Meng Xiaoning from get off work in the evening.
He didn't remember it until the next day.
It was only after seeing his father-in-law that he remembered it. He asked awkwardly, "Dad, Xiaoning is not angry, right? Yesterday morning I didn't know the bus would leave today, and I told Xiaoning I would pick her up from get off work in the evening, but I ended up being so busy."
Meng Qingxin laughed and patted his son-in-law on the shoulder: "No, our Xiaoning is not such a petty woman. I have explained it clearly to her."
Li Lei breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good!"
"But your road is narrow, and it's raining. Our cars are big, so I'm afraid we can't get in. We can only go to the village entrance." Meng Qingxin said again.
Meng Qingxin brought six large trucks today and parked them in a row at the entrance of the village, attracting many villagers to come and see.
"It's okay. My tricycle can get in. We can use it to transport the vegetables here, and you just load them here!" Li Yong also had a solution.
As he spoke, he called out to Dafu and the others in the crowd: "Dafu, call a few people to come over and serve the dishes. Uncle Meng, you and the uncles should stop working. You still have to drive later. Take a break first."
Meng Qingxin didn't bother to be polite with Li Yong. Driving a truck is not an easy job.
Now that I have used up all my strength, if I get tired or distracted on the road, it will be a big disaster.
Dafu called several young men from the village and they quickly gathered around.
Li Yong instructed: "My brother will drive the vegetables from the field to here, and you will be responsible for transferring the vegetables to the truck."
Da Fu agreed: "Okay! Leave it to us!"
Li Yong looked at his family again: "Let's go to the fields and load the vegetables onto the tricycle!"
He jumped onto the tricycle first, and Li Lei started the car.
The Li family members got on the tricycle one after another, and the tricycle rumbled away.
There were many people in the crowd just watching the fun.
"Did the Li family find a buyer? Didn't they always drive their tricycle to deliver goods to the buyer in the past? Why did they drive a large truck to collect the goods this time?"
"I guess it's because the price is cheap, so people want more, right?"
"If you ask me, Li Zhiming is really not kind. He has a clear market, but he doesn't know how to help others. He sold all his own vegetables, but I'm afraid our vegetables will rot in the fields." Someone said sarcastically.
Dafu and the others were waiting nearby. When they heard what was said in the crowd, they couldn't help but defend the Li family, saying, "What nonsense are you talking about? Uncle Zhiming is not selling these vegetables. He is donating them. If you have the guts, hurry up and pick them from the fields. You can still catch up!"
"Donate? Where should we donate to? Our family is also very poor, why not just donate it to us!"
"That's right. They can't even take care of themselves, how can they care about others? When their family makes money, shouldn't we, their neighbors, be the first to be helped? We have helped them a lot in the past, but now that they have money, they don't care about others anymore?"
Dafu looked over and saw that the people who were making sarcastic remarks were the families in the village who followed Uncle Zhiming to grow greenhouse crops.
When you were following the trend and secretly learning from others, why didn't you dare to make sarcastic remarks?
Now that he sees that he can’t get any advantage, he starts talking nonsense.
Meng Qingxin is an honest man. He can't bear to see his relatives doing good things but being gossiped about by the villagers.
"We are donating these vegetables to the disaster area. Do you know how many people are trapped and how many people have died in the disaster area? If you don't have the same level as us, don't talk about it, to avoid embarrassment!"
Da Fu laughed when he heard this.
"Brother Da Nian, isn't it now? Didn't you learn this greenhouse technology from Uncle Zhiming? If there was no Uncle Zhiming, do you know how to build a greenhouse? Do you know where to buy steel pipes? Do you know when to fertilize and when to water? Although the crops have been wasted this year, you can still plant after the rainy season. The greenhouse is there, and you can always make money." Da Fu said beautifully.
The villagers also echoed: "Yes, donating things is a good thing. As the old saying goes, when one side is in trouble, all sides will come to its aid. Our life is not rich, but we can still make ends meet. The people in the disaster area are so pitiful!"
Seeing this, several young people rolled up their sleeves and said, "Let's help too!"
"If everyone helps, the vegetables can be delivered to the disaster area sooner."
Dafu looked at the situation and gave instructions in an orderly manner: "Okay, there are enough people here. You two go to the greenhouse and help Uncle Zhiming and the others move!"
When Li Danian and his companions saw that they had not stirred up any trouble and had instead added a few helpers to Li Zhiming, they lowered their heads in shame and were about to leave.
"Dannian, don't go! You can't sell the vegetables in your field anyway, so why don't we pick them for you? You can also show some love to the disaster area!"
Upon hearing this, Li Danian and his companions paused for a moment, and then walked faster.
The people behind saw this and burst into laughter.
More than 30,000 kilograms of vegetables were loaded into four trucks.
Before leaving, Li Xu told Liu Guihua and others: "Mom, you should collect the remaining vegetables in the next two days and wait for me to come back and sell them."
Liu Guihua nodded quickly: "Okay, don't worry."
