Chapter 22
Back then, he couldn't scold Li Cuifeng or beat Luo Xianyang, so he didn't dare to open the door of the rental house. Things are different now, and Weisheng is really not afraid of uninvited guests outside the door. However,
Weisheng took another bite of noodles after glancing at the loud knocks on the door. He returned the small milk pot to the space and stood in front of the door with a screwdriver, prying the hinges outward without any interference.
When he had almost pried open the door, Weisheng stepped back a few steps and shouted to the person outside, "Can you please stop knocking? If you have something to say, just say it. If you keep knocking, the door will break."
After shouting this, Weisheng suddenly ran towards the door, using his momentum and weight to push the door, which was about to fall, outwards.
Doors in this era were almost all made of wood. The weight of the door itself, combined with Weisheng's own weight, and the extra weight she'd brought from a safe when she threw herself against the door, weighed down Jin Menglan by at least three hundred kilograms.
Jin Menglan stood outside the door, so completely oblivious to the moment it fell towards her that she forgot to react. Only after her body was crushed to the ground did she finally scream in agony.
“Ah~~~”
A smile of a little fox who had succeeded in stealing a chicken flashed across Weisheng's face. He immediately put the safe wrapped in the bed sheet into the space and then stood up quickly.
With one foot on the ground and the other on the door panel, he raised his beautiful eyebrows and looked at Jin Menglan who was twisting and struggling under the door panel with a smug look.
"If you like knocking so much, then you should knock as much as you want!"
Jin Menglan hadn't expected Weisheng to turn so suddenly against her, and so completely. She pushed upward with both hands, trying to dislodge the door panel from pressing down on her, but just as she made some progress, she was suddenly pushed back down by gravity. Quickly, she yelled at Weisheng, "Weisheng Yishen, get your stinky feet off me!"
"Does it stink?" Weisheng seemed to have missed the point and placed his other foot on the door panel, swaying back and forth like he was walking on a balance beam. "Does it still stink?"
"Weisheng Yiran, you son of a bitch! You're going to die a miserable death!" Jin Menglan, who was almost suffocating from being pressed down, roared at Weisheng in frustration, "Get the hell out of here!"
"Why don't you pretend anymore? Aren't you quite good at pretending?"
Weisheng finished his words and before Jin Menglan could continue her curse, he jumped on the door panel several times. Each time she jumped, she landed harder, and Jin Menglan, who was pressed under the door panel, was almost sent flying by Weisheng.
Jin Menglan was having difficulty breathing, but she still wanted to threaten Weisheng.
"Weisheng Yiyan, I won't, I won't let you go."
Weisheng's eyes rolled when he heard that, and then he sat down on the door with a smile and said to Jin Menglan below, "I might as well tell you that my name is Weisheng Anran, and I'm Weisheng Yiran's younger sister. I was afraid my sister couldn't endure the hardship, so I took the initiative to go to the countryside in her place. Humph, it's a good thing I came, otherwise my sister would have been bullied to death by you."
After Weisheng said this, he took out a small hammer from Jin Menglan's blind spot and hit the door panel with all his might, which made Jin Menglan under the door panel even more nervous.
But Jin Menglan couldn't care less about that now. She was shocked, staring at the door with her eyes wide open, and shouted in disbelief: "What! You, you are not Weisheng Yiran?"
"Why? Can't I?"
Of course not!
If you are no longer the person I remember, what chance do I have of winning?
On the one hand, she didn't want to accept this truth, but on the other hand, because of Weisheng's overly high-profile and eye-catching performance, she subconsciously believed that this was the truth. Then, at this moment, Jin Menglan, who was pressed under the door, suddenly felt indescribably tired and discouraged.
Noticing a faint struggle beneath the door, Weisheng's first thought was that she had crushed someone to death. Unexpectedly, as she lifted her foot from the door, her weight shifted sideways, causing Jin Menglan to groan in pain in her ribs. Seeing this, Weisheng sat back down with relief.
Weisheng Yiran and Weisheng Anran were not only half-sisters, but also had biological mothers. They looked very similar and were only a few months apart in age.
Weisheng knew that his current self was very different from the original owner in Jin Menglan's memory. Instead of letting her think about rebirth, or even what people in later generations often called time travel, it would be better for him to take the initiative to provide her with a "truth".
The little butt rubbed against the door panel, and as expected, a few muffled groans were heard.
While feeling that this was more satisfying than beating Jin Menglan, he slowly asked Jin Menglan why she came.
Jin Menglan was almost driven to lose her temper by Weisheng. When she heard Weisheng asking her the purpose of her visit, she paused for a few breaths, and then begged Weisheng in a very negotiating tone to let her out first.
Weisheng tilted his head and pretended to be stubborn: "No! If you don't tell me why you came, why should I let you out?"
Jin Menglan choked, unable to believe that Wei Sheng Yiran's own sister could be so unruly and unreasonable. But when she thought about her own intentions, she felt that she had brought this upon herself.
Jin Menglan heard that Weisheng was developing photos and that the negatives could not be exposed, so she deliberately found an extremely urgent reason to look for Weisheng.
As for the so-called urgent matter, it was nothing more than an anonymous report written and directed by Jin Menglan herself.
She exaggerated Weisheng's performance during the autumn harvest to report Weisheng for his bourgeois activities in the village. The evidence was that Weisheng brought a camera into the village.
Unexpectedly, after receiving the anonymous letter, the Revolutionary Committee did come to the village, but they first went to the village chief, who not only stopped them but also sent them away.
Jin Menglan was always paying attention to this matter. When she saw that things were not developing as expected, she rolled her eyes and came to inform Weisheng "in advance".
The people from the Revolutionary Committee want to investigate you. Isn’t this an extremely urgent matter?
Once the door is knocked open, the film and other things will be exposed. Even if it turns out to be a false alarm, the photo negatives and other things will be destroyed, right?
She gave the villagers hope and then disappointed them, her spitting could drown a person. If she provoked them a little, Weisheng would be ostracized by the villagers.
At that time, she only needs to show a little kindness, and Weisheng will automatically approach her...
From Wei Sheng's perspective, Jin Menglan is a complete clown, with a mind and vision so low that it's outrageous. But if you look at Jin Menglan from another angle, this dark female supporting role reborn character is also quite interesting.
It's a pity that the devil is one foot high, but the Tao is ten feet higher. With her limited Taoism skills... Weisheng is not someone she can calculate.
"...People from the Revolutionary Committee came to the village and specifically asked for you. I saw they had ill intentions and was worried you wouldn't be prepared, so I came here specifically to tip you off."
Weisheng: "Then why didn't you say it just now? Did you have to knock down my door first? What do you want? Just want to change my door?"
It’s because I’m afraid that you won’t tell me even if you know it.
Jin Menglan, who didn't know that Weisheng had already known her character and morals, didn't dare to tell the truth, and just used the excuse that she was panicking and couldn't handle it to evade Weisheng.
"We are all foxes from a thousand miles away. What are you playing with me?"
"What did you say? Ouch~, ah~~"
How could Weisheng not hear Jin Menglan's perfunctory response? He immediately stood up from the door panel and jumped up and down on it repeatedly. As several howls came from under the door panel, Weisheng sat cross-legged on the door panel again with a look of relief.
"Ever since we first met, the way you looked at me was strange. You even said that the donkey cart belonged to the village and that it wouldn't wait for me. This is my first time in the countryside, but I'm not without common sense. Even a ghost wouldn't believe such talk, and how dare you call you 'simple-minded' in front of so many people?
Haha, do you really think that others are just like you, idiots with their brains filled with mush?
Don't try to quibble. I can smell your hostility towards me even from two acres of land. If I didn't know that my sister, who is always soft-hearted, always suffers, I would have suspected that my sister had done something unforgivable to you. Tell me, why do you dislike my sister?
Jin Menglan was startled and quickly retorted, "I didn't, ah~"
As soon as Jin Menglan denied it, Weisheng hit her fingers that were holding the door frame with a hammer. The pain was so severe that Jin Menglan couldn't speak.
"I told you, don't give me those empty promises. Either confess directly or..." Weisheng half-lay on the door panel, looking down at Jin Menglan through the crack, and said maliciously: "Murder is against the law, I dare not do it. But if I beat someone into a fool with a hammer, who would know it was me?"
Jin Menglan glared at Weisheng and shouted in a stern voice, "You, you, you dare! This is Kaoshan Village, not a place where you can act wildly."
"You can try to see if I dare!"
Weisheng playfully stuck out his tongue at Jin Menglan, then tilted his head as if reminiscing about a past event and told her a story. "When I was a kid, there was a young, beautiful, and foolish girl in the alley. She was a bachelor, and the hooligans in the area who weren't doing their jobs often took her to dark places... Later, the foolish girl got pregnant and was paraded through the streets by the Revolutionary Committee. What do you think happened to her?"
Jin Menglan didn't know that Weisheng was talking nonsense and deliberately making up stories to scare her, but she still followed Weisheng's words and asked, "What happened?"
"It would have been fine if she could remain stupid forever, but that idiot actually regained consciousness during childbirth. She clearly remembered what had happened to her, screamed, and jumped from the fourth floor of the hospital.
Unexpectedly, she was stopped by the windowsill and fell, suffering a comminuted fracture and being paralyzed for life. Oh, let alone her, no one would be able to bear such a thing.
Jin Menglan's heart skipped a beat as she watched Weisheng saying "I can't stand it" while circling a small hammer around her head.
"Tell me, if I hit you with a hammer and turned you into a fool, would you be stronger than her? How about we give it a try?"
Weisheng saw Jin Menglan's expression change, and he said slowly, "Why are the people from the Revolutionary Committee looking for me? Someone in the village must have reported me. There are many people who don't want to see me get better, but you must be the one who wants me to get into trouble right now."
Jin Menglan: “…”
Yes, no matter how much the other people in the village hated Weisheng Yiran, oh no, they hated Weisheng Anran, they would wait until the photo was developed. Only she, not only wanted Weisheng Anran to be in trouble, but also didn't want that candid photo to be seen by anyone.
Just when Jin Menglan was racking her brains to make a few more excuses, Yu Tao came back with the village head and his wife, the women's director, the production team leader, and several village party secretaries.
When they pushed open the door to the outer room, they saw Weisheng sitting cross-legged on the ground, holding a small hammer in his hand. When everyone looked closely, they found that Weisheng was not sitting on the ground, but on the door panel of her west room, and there was a person under the door panel.
So the people at the door either bent down or leaned sideways to look. When they found that the person Weisheng was sitting under the door was Jin Menglan, everyone looked at Weisheng with shock, confusion and full of doubts.
Doubao, why is this happening?
Weisheng didn't expect that so many people would see his unkind side, but she was not seventeen years old after all, so he just thought about it and decided to "tell the truth".
"Jin Menglan was jealous of me and even wrote an anonymous letter to the Revolutionary Committee to report me. Afraid I'd get wind of it and run away, she came and banged on my door."
In an instant, all those who heard Weisheng's words looked towards the door panel and saw Jin Menglan with the same shocked expression.
Jin Menglan, whose ribs were about to be broken by Weisheng, said: "..."
Woo~, let’s just ask her how else she can argue?
