Chapter 46: Food Negotiation Tug of War



Li Yuetang wanted to go forward to comfort Dong Yingying, but considering her daughter-in-law's feelings, she could only stand where she was.

At this moment, Lin Wanjun did not feel the joy of victory.

She and Dong Yingying had no personal grudge of life or death. Even if there was, it was the persecution of the Song family and Dong Yingying by the vicious female partner in the original plot.

She believed that the damn original author would not use his pen to create a vain and despicable heroine!

Putting aside the original plot, when encountering difficulties, girls should help girls.

So Lin Wanjun stepped forward.

"Director Xu!"

She stopped Xu Haibin who was about to leave and smiled a little scoundrelly.

"Even if they're allocating food, our cadre school should get a share. Why not just distribute our portion ahead of time so we don't have to make another trip?"

Xu Haibin frowned and looked at the young girl in front of him.

She is very beautiful, but not in the empty and foolish way. There is spirit and cunning in her eyes.

"Your cadre school's share is definitely necessary, but this batch of food needs to be counted and stored first, and then allocated and distributed!"

Xu Haibin was about to leave after he finished speaking, but Lin Wanjun opened her arms to stop him.

"Then consider it as an advance payment for our cadre school. You know the situation at the cadre school. Everyone hasn't had a full meal in ages!"

Song Zhanjin also stepped forward to support his wife.

"The food has all arrived at the cadre school, yet you're taking it all away without leaving a single grain. This...will easily incite public outrage!"

Several people in the dung removal team began to join in the commotion, especially Wang Chuang, who was the loudest.

"That's right, we're almost starving to death, so why should we care about propriety, integrity, morality, and righteousness?"

"That's right! If you don't give us food, not even a fly will be able to fly out of the cadre school today!"

Xu Haibin was so angry that he was shaking and glaring at Wei Yifu.

"Wei Yifu, is this the talent your cadre school has trained?"

Before Wei Yifu could speak, Lin Wanjun started to make a fuss again.

"When food is plentiful, people learn etiquette; when food and clothing are adequate, people understand honor and disgrace. Even if Principal Wei is knowledgeable, if he can't fill everyone's stomachs, it's all in vain!"

"Who would want to cause trouble here if they have enough to eat?"

Wei Yifu let Lin Wanjun finish speaking before he symbolically raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet.

"Director Xu, you know the situation at our cadre school. The food problem has always been severe. What everyone has said is true. The food has arrived at our cadre school. You can't take it all away!"

Lin Wanjun shouted, "Yes, at least leave one-third for us!"

Hearing this, Dong Yingying shouted angrily.

"Why only one-third? This is the food I gave to the cadre school. I should have left it all for the cadre school!"

Lin Wanjun picked up a clod of earth and threw it at Dong Yingying's mouth.

"Shut up, you idiot!"

Li Yuetang also took the opportunity to cover Dong Yingying's mouth, telling her not to make any more trouble.

The daughter of the Dong family is really not very smart!

Xu Haibin looked displeased and waved to the guards behind him to come over and control Lin Wanjun, who was leading the trouble.

Without waiting for the guard to touch the corner of Lin Wanjun's clothes, Song Zhanjin hugged his wife in his arms.

Several male comrades from the excrement removal team also rushed up shouting.

"What? You're going to fight if you can't argue? You want to fight, right? Fine, come on!"

"What's the big deal about bullying lesbians? Come and bully me if you dare!"

"Exactly, what did our Xiaolin say wrong?"

Seeing that the time was almost right, Song Mingcheng and Qin Sijun looked at each other and stood up at the same time.

They first asked the excited people to calm down, and then began to pretend to discuss things with Wei Yifu.

Song Mingcheng said, "Principal Wei, we can't make things too difficult for Director Xu. He's also following the rules!"

Xu Haibin nodded repeatedly.

"Right? Everything has to have rules. Every unit is short of food. We can't just let you guys do whatever you want, right? If this gets out, how am I supposed to be in charge?"

Qin Sijun thought for a while and said, "Director Xu, do you think this will work?"

He counted on his fingers and finally came to a conclusion.

"One-third of the food is a bit too much. One-quarter! Leave one-quarter for our cadre school!"

When Dong Yingying heard that it became one-quarter again, she opened her mouth to shout again, but Li Yuetang stuffed the scarf into her mouth to make her shut up completely.

Wei Yifu took the opportunity to act as a peacemaker.

"Director Xu, just leave us a quarter of our food. They're right. If we get really hungry, there's no telling what disaster might happen!"

Xu Haibin's face looked unhappy and he didn't want to compromise.

However, seeing this group of strong men surrounding him with murderous eyes, he didn't want to cause more trouble in the middle of the night.

Furthermore, it was time to allocate food to the cadre school.

He finally nodded and said, "Okay, then we'll count the grain and allocate a quarter of the total grain to your cadre school."

Everyone cheered and Wei Yifu took the opportunity to look at Lin Wanjun and secretly gave her a thumbs up.

Okay, the daughter-in-law of the Song family is bold and daring, she is a person with courage and determination!

After counting, there were a total of 2,000 kilograms of grain, one-quarter of which was distributed to the cadre school, that is, 500 kilograms.

Although most of the food is coarse grains such as corn and sorghum, everyone will be able to fill their stomachs for some time to come.

By the time Xu Haibin drove away, it was already dawn.

Originally, Xu Haibin suggested that Dong Yingying go to the county town with him, but Dong Yingying refused, as she wanted to stay in the cadre school.

"That's fine too. There's going to be a commendation meeting at the cadre school in a few days anyway, so you can stay here!"

Before leaving, Xu Haibin said to Wei Yifu, "Old Wei, you must treat this young comrade well!"

After making a fuss for half the night, Lin Wanjun was very tired.

Just as she was about to go back to the dormitory and lie down for a while, Dong Yingying grabbed her wrist.

"Why are you giving away the food I brought?"

Dong Yingying shouted angrily, "Do you know how much hardship I've endured to get this grain here? What qualifications do you have to make decisions for me?"

This sudden accusation left Lin Wanjun a little confused.

No, sister, even if you are angry, you shouldn't be angry at me. You should be angry with Xu Haibin who stole your food!

"Tell me again, who gave away the food you brought?"

Lin Wanjun asked with a frown.

Dong Yingying pointed at Lin Wanjun's nose and roared.

"You! You took it upon yourself to propose leaving one-third of the grain for the cadre school. Isn't that just giving away two-thirds of the grain? What? You still don't want to admit it?"

Lin Wanjun was so angry that she laughed.

"Dong Yingying, don't you use your brain when you go out? If I hadn't stopped you, do you think you could have kept that cart of food?"

"If it weren't for everyone's joint efforts, we wouldn't be able to keep even a single kernel of corn, let alone a third or a quarter! If you're such a loudmouth, why didn't you confront Xu Haibin just now?"

She stared into Dong Yingying's eyes.

"In the final analysis, you're still a bully at heart. You knew you couldn't afford to offend Xu Haibin, so when he was about to leave with the food, you just squatted on the ground and cried, not daring to fart."

"Now that the people in power are gone, you're getting all mad again, pointing your finger at me and questioning me, trying to pin all the blame on me!"

Lin Wanjun sneered.

"If it weren't for this proof, who would be willing to risk angering Xu Haibin for this little bit of food? Let me tell you, it's like snatching food from a tiger's mouth!"

Dong Yingying's voice was trembling and there were tears in her eyes.

"Prove what for me?"

Lin Wanjun spoke slowly, "It proves there's food in the car. It proves you're not some liar or bastard seeking fame and glory!"

Lin Wanjun became angrier and angrier as she spoke, and kicked a brick.

"Helping you is worse than helping a dog. This really makes me angry!"

Song Zhanjin frowned and looked at Dong Yingying.

"Do you think we're helping you? We're helping Junjun, because she's standing in front of you. That's why so many people from the cadre school stood in front of her without hesitation."

Watching Song Zhanjin's receding back, Dong Yingying's eyes were extremely confused.

Why?

Why does a vicious and selfish woman like Lin Wanjun have such prestige in the cadre school?

How did she win people's hearts?

Could it be that she really wronged Lin Wanjun?

No! It won't! Memory is infallible!

In her memories of her previous life, she had witnessed how Lin Wanjun persecuted the Song family and knew what a despicable and vicious woman she was!

Perhaps there is some conspiracy hidden in it?
