Chapter 1163 Blood Pack from the 7s 7
Village Chief Liu picked up the money on the table and put it in his pocket: "They've already brought the money and things to our door, so we can't very well refuse. Besides, it's just a small matter, and it hasn't harmed the village's interests. As the village chief, I have no reason not to help."
Hu Laidi glared at her husband: "Come on! You're just greedy for money, but you try to make it sound so noble."
As she spoke, Hu Laidi opened the can of malted milk powder and took a very pleasant sniff: "It smells so good. I've always known that malted milk powder is a good thing, but I've never tried it before. But I can't bear to drink such a good thing. I have to save it for the children."
“I’ve heard about it,” Hu Laidi quickly closed the box again and looked at her husband, “This malted milk powder is perfect for nourishing the child. This whole can of malted milk powder is for the child. Don’t you dare try to take it from the child!”
"Look at what you're saying, making me sound like some kind of stepfather." Although Village Chief Liu also wanted to try the taste of malted milk powder, he couldn't bear to drink such a good thing and only wanted to save it for his child to nourish his body.
It is worth mentioning that because Village Chief Liu married late, and Hu Laidi only became pregnant several years after he and his wife got married, their three children are still young. This is why, even though he is Liu Manman's father's cousin, his children are still young.
"But then again, Jiang Zhiqing is really rich. She just threw out tens of yuan. You know, even if our family saves every penny, it would take us years to save up those tens of yuan," Village Chief Liu continued.
It wasn't that he was greedy; it was just that Jiang Zhiqing had given him too much money. How could he possibly refuse such a large sum? After all, he was just an ordinary person. As for being honest and upright, he was just a small village official and didn't have such lofty ideals.
"Isn't what you're saying nonsense?" Hu Laidi rolled her eyes and said, "If it weren't for Jiang Zhiqing's good family background, your good cousin and that Ren Pingwei would not have targeted Jiang Zhiqing. Not only did they borrow money and not pay it back, but they also smeared Jiang Zhiqing."
"That's because Jiang Chunxi isn't really stupid, and she's not interested in Ren Pingwei. Otherwise, if she really believed Ren Pingwei's nonsense about liking her, and she happened to have feelings for him in that way, she might have been taken advantage of and left with nothing."
"I've heard that Jiang Zhiqing is an only child. Her parents only have one daughter, and they've doted on her since she was little. It's one thing to be an only child, but her parents also have good jobs and high salaries. Isn't that like a piece of fat meat that some people with bad intentions have their eyes on?"
"What's most disgusting is that your dear cousin and Ren Pingwei are clearly a couple, but they still want to scheme against Jiang Zhiqing and try to take advantage of her."
"What are you trying to do? Even if you want to eat up the children of the deceased, this is disgusting. Luckily, you're still sensible enough not to be an accomplice, or I would never forgive you."
This shows that although Hu Laidi is a bit greedy, her values are still quite sound.
As for greed, isn't that human nature? We're not saints; who among us isn't a little greedy? The difference lies in how greedy some people are. Some people may be greedy, but they still adhere to moral principles and won't dare to take any money they can get.
When Jiang Chunxi came out of Village Chief Liu's house, she saw that Village Chief Liu and his wife did not follow her out, so she knew that the matter was settled.
To be honest, Jiang Chunxi had mixed feelings about Village Chief Liu. He wasn't exactly a bad person, but he was also good in that he did cooperate with Liu Manman and Ren Pingwei in his previous life to cover up the original owner's death.
Strictly speaking, he could be considered the murderer who killed the original owner's parents. After all, if he hadn't helped cover up the original owner's death, the original owner's parents wouldn't have sold their house, quit their jobs, and searched all over the country for their daughter.
Forget it, let's see! Anyway, the original owner didn't have the desire to take revenge on the person she was looking for, so she can observe Village Chief Liu for a while longer. She doesn't necessarily have to take revenge on the original owner.
Of course! Jiang Chunxi will definitely not let go of the man who killed the original owner in her past life, but now is not the time to settle scores with him.
Take it slow! Anyway, she'll be staying here for several more years, so there's no need to rush into avenging the original owner.
With Ren Pingwei's report, Jiang Chunxi naturally wouldn't let her parents bring her back to the city. After all, if her father used his connections to arrange another job for her, who knew if the people who investigated him before would target him again?
Therefore, for safety reasons, before Jiang Chunxi went to the countryside, she specifically instructed her father not to use his connections to get her a job and transfer her back from the countryside.
When Jiang Chunxi returned to the educated youth compound and entered the dormitory, Fang Yu, who was lying on the bed, looked at her and asked, "Chunxi, why did it take you so long to go to the outhouse?"
“Today is the sixteenth of the lunar calendar,” Jiang Chunxi said as she sat down on her bed and took off her coat. “The moon is fullest on the sixteenth, so after I finished using the outhouse, I went for a walk outside to admire the moon.”
"I admire you," Fang Yu said with admiration. "You're already exhausted, yet you still have the leisure to appreciate the moon. Unlike me, I just want to stay in bed and never get up."
"Waaah! I really don't want to live anymore. If this continues, I'll probably lose my life in a few months."
"Alright, stop saying such unlucky things and stop complaining," it was Liao Min's voice. "You need to know that no matter how much you complain, you can't change the situation. Since that's the case, you might as well adapt to the current physical labor as soon as possible."
“Sister Liao is right,” Jiang Chunxi lay down and covered herself with the blanket. “Complaining is useless. Instead of wasting energy complaining, we should try to adapt to our current life.”
Just as Jiang Chunxi finished speaking, Liu Manman walked into the dormitory after taking a shower.
As soon as she entered, the entire dormitory fell silent. Ye Qin and the others had originally wanted to chat, but upon seeing Liu Manman enter, they immediately lost all interest in talking.
"What bad luck," Fang Yu rolled his eyes. "Sharing a room with someone like this is double torture for me. Working in the fields every day is already torture enough. Why should I have to suffer from someone like this on top of that?"
"Oh God! What kind of life do I have? It's even more bitter than a lotus seed. When will this suffering ever end? I wish I could just get that annoying person out of my sight! That way, life would be tough, but not unbearable."
"Fang Yu, have you had enough?" Liu Manman angrily threw the washbasin in her hand to the ground. "You're always going on and on. The more I try to ignore you, the more energetic you become. What, do you really think I, Liu Manman, am afraid of you? Do you think I'm made of clay?"
