Chapter 212 Wen Ran: Ah! I seem to have been tricked
The captain pounced on the lamb like a hungry tiger and excitedly held it in his arms.
The little lamb was eating grass and was startled. It bleated and looked very pitiful. The captain was hit with two electric cannons without mercy.
The captain was caught off guard and was knocked over by the two hooves.
Fortunately, the little lamb was not very strong, otherwise, it would have definitely disfigured the captain.
Wen Ran and Xiao Chenye hurried over and helped the captain up, saying angrily, "Uncle! What are you doing? If you get kicked out, our family won't be able to afford the compensation."
"What compensation do you want? I don't want any compensation from you! This little lamb is really strong."
After being kicked, the captain became lively and energetic. He grinned and said happily, "You brought it down the mountain without making a sound. What are you going to do with it?
You don't want to kill it and eat its meat, do you?"
Wen Ran: “…”
She smiled faintly and said nothing.
This kind of thing, it's fine if everyone knows it, how can you put it on the table~
It would be a waste not to eat such cute lamb skewers.
The captain was so distressed that he held the lamb tightly and refused to let go. "No!"
Wen Ran held his forehead with his hand, "Uncle, if you have anything to say, let's talk it out. Stand up first, don't sit on the ground and act like a spoiled child. It's embarrassing."
For the captain, at this moment, it doesn't matter whether it's embarrassing or not.
He had to save the little lamb's life from Wen Ran's mouth.
"No," the captain said scoundrelly, "You can't eat the lamb. It's such a cute lamb. It would be a waste to eat it now!
It would be better to raise it bigger, so that it will be fat and strong, and everyone can have some meat.
Even if you can't eat the meat, you can still have a few sips of soup, which is delicious. So, I'll give you 100 centimeters, and you give it to the team, how about that? "
Wen Ran: “…”
Damn it.
She worked hard to collect grass for the pigs.
Only three centimeters a day, one lamb did the work she would have done in a month.
But it's okay this way.
Wen Ran's eyes rolled around and he suddenly had an idea.
The captain yelled, "Wen Ran, you little bastard, why are you rolling your eyes?
Are you up to something bad again? I tell you, don't think of cheating me. You've made a fortune by exchanging a hundred centimeters for a lamb."
Wen Ran was immediately unhappy, "Hey! What do you mean I'm cheating you? I'm not short of work points, I'm just short of meat.
I won't change it. A hundred centimeters is not as comfortable as eating two bites of mutton."
Captain: “…”
He seemed to overreact a little.
After pondering for a while, the captain took another step back and said, "Well, how about we discuss it again?"
Wen Ran was not happy about it and kept grumbling and refusing to agree.
The team leader had no choice but to increase the work points from 100 to 120, and only then did Wen Ran feel relieved.
"By the way," Wen Ran smiled, "I was just about to say that I saw a herd of bison in the mountains. If our team needs them, I can find a way to get a few down."
Captain: “!!!”
Good news from heaven is just like this.
Immediately, he came back to his senses and began to doubt his life. "So, what you just wanted to say was actually to go up the mountain to trap a herd of bison?"
"yes."
Captain: “…”
He had twenty work points, and then, gone.
The captain was so distressed that he hadn't recovered yet when he heard Wen Ran's faint voice, "Of course, you also know my temper.
I never work for nothing, so if I can get two buffaloes down from the mountain, can I not take part in the spring ploughing?"
The captain hugged the lamb and said, "Okay."
He looked at Wen Ran's secretly delighted expression and smiled slightly, "Actually, from the beginning, I didn't intend to let you work in the fields."
Wen Ran: “……?”
She looked at the captain numbly, "But didn't you say before that everyone should go to the fields during spring plowing and autumn harvest?"
"Everyone is going to the fields, but just because we are there doesn't mean that the cattle and sheep won't eat."
The captain grinned, thinking he had managed to get back on track, "I was planning to have you cut grass for the pigs, but the task is heavier.
In the past, three baskets were enough, but now we have to take at least ten baskets. Otherwise, there won’t be enough for the pigs to eat, and it won’t be worth it if they become thin and hungry.”
Wen Ran suddenly felt like he was shooting himself in the foot.
According to the captain's meaning, even if she didn't come up with this clever idea, she wouldn't have to go to the field.
Just add more pig grass and you'll be done.
Now I'm just taking on work for myself.
Wen Ran was speechless. She stared with dead eyes, "Why didn't you say it earlier?"
"You didn't ask much! Besides, I'm really touched by your wholehearted concern for the team.
I gave you a chance to show yourself, so how about it, are you touched?"
Dare not move.
Wen Ran gritted his teeth.
She didn't expect that after the captain had been with her for so long, even he had become cunning, looking at the little trap he had set for her.
Everyone was stunned.
The captain and Wen Ran were secretly complaining, but the Xiao family was watching with great excitement, "Alright, alright, stop talking and sit down to eat.
Wait a little longer, the mutton is just right to eat, it’s already soft and rotten.”
"Sit down and eat!"
The captain had just been tricked by Wen Ran, although he made up for it later.
But it still couldn't change his depressed mood, so he immediately closed his eyes and made up his mind, thinking, "No matter what, just eat first."
This little calf is really busy. Anyway, the lamb has been cooked, it would be a waste not to eat it.
Only after he was full and satisfied did he have the energy to continue his battle of wits and courage with this damn girl.
While eating, the team leader told the story of Zhong Xiaonan, "I'm telling you the truth.
Your eldest son is an ungrateful person, and the wife he married is also a difficult character. As for the two ungrateful children, one is cruel and ruthless, and the other is extremely stupid.
I really don’t know how this family has been living these years. It makes me feel dizzy just watching them.
Damn it, if I hadn’t dodged quickly, I would have been trapped by these three women.”
And he even ripped his clothes!
Just thinking about it, the captain wanted to slap Zhong Xiaonan to death.
"So," Xiao's mother asked hopefully, "did you drive them away?"
"Drive away the ass!"
The captain was depressed, "It's impossible to drive them away for a while, Zhong Xiaonan said that I can drive them away.
Zhong Xiaonan immediately took his two children and jumped into the river, saying that since there was no way to survive, they might as well die and be done with it all.
The spring ploughing season is coming soon, and I don’t want to cause any trouble, so I’ll allocate the house at the entrance of the village for them to live in first. After the spring ploughing season is over, we can slowly make plans.”
