Chapter 152: The reborn of paranoid boss cannon fodder wife
Chapter 152: Little Girl
During the time Bai Lu spent here, she ate well, drank well, and slept well. Her body improved a lot under the military boxing exercises, and she gained considerable strength. She could even flip over Li Shuixian, who weighed two hundred kilograms.
Not to mention dragging away a human child with bare hands.
Effortlessly, she said, "Today is not the weekend, you have to go to school. You can't go to the countryside. Next time, I'll take you when I have time."
Unable to resist, Xiao Wei clasped onto her leg and said, "I'm not going to school today."
Bai Lu did stop walking, but not because she was pulled, but due to something else. She lowered her head, coolly smiling at the little guy by her leg. "What did you say? Say it again."
Xiao Wei, freezing with hesitation, had to say, "I'm not going to school in the afternoon. I'll accompany you to the countryside. Uncle Fu said there are many bad people, and you won't be able to handle it alone. Big brother asked me to stay at home to protect you, and I promised to do so."
Bai Lu bent her cool eyebrows, looking into the bright, shining eyes of the little guy. Coolly, she said, "Then why were you staring at Lin Jinfan just now? Is it because he looks good?"
Xiao Wei firmly disagreed with this statement and loudly declared the most correct answer, "Big brother looks the best!"
Bai Lu smiled, "So, do you listen to what your big brother says?"
"I do!" It's a must.
Bai Lu looked at the little guy's serious and determined face. In a gentle voice, she said, "Protecting me is your brother's task for you. The school fees you pay are also given by your brother. If you don't go to school today, you will be wasting the money your brother worked hard to earn. Do you really want to go to the countryside today?"
This...
Xiao Wei was puzzled by the question, hesitating for a long time, unable to make the most appropriate choice.
Bai Lu was right.
But if Bai Lu went to the countryside, it wouldn't just be with Uncle Fu and his wife; Lin Jinfan would also be going.
Lin Jinfan, who could lead Bai Lu away.
Bai Lu had saved so much money before, all to elope with Lin Jinfan. If Bai Lu and Lin Jinfan went to the countryside together and never came back, what would happen?
What about big brother?
In the midst of Xiao Wei's hesitation, Bai Lu had already pulled his hands down from her legs and quickly led him home.
Pushing him into the house, handing him packed meals, she hung them on his hand and touched his bald head without hair.
"Be good and eat your meal. Go to school after that. I'll come back early."
Xiao Wei watched Bai Lu's departing figure, subconsciously taking a step forward, then stopping.
"You must come back."
"Don't worry, I'll be back before it gets dark."
The girl's figure walked farther and farther away, finally helped onto a tricycle by a young man, and with a loud noise, she disappeared.
Gone.
Bai Lu really left with Lin Jinfan.
Xiao Wei rushed back into the house to make a call.
As the tricycle approached the entrance of the Xiao family village, before entering the village, distant noises and reasonable voices could be heard.
"You can't do this... If you take away the sand and the chestnuts are not stored, the rice flowers of this year have not bloomed yet, and without rice, what will we eat...?"
"Please, give us a few more months."
"When the early-season rice is harvested, we will have rice, then you can take the sand. Is that okay?"
The pleading voices were from elderly people.
Worn down by the passage of time, their voices, eroded by wind and frost, were hoarse, but the pleading was exceptionally clear.
The resounding refusal, however, was merciless, "Stop the nonsense! The country has laws, and families have rules. If you're told to pay now, you pay now! If you keep dragging this out, if you don't give up the sand, don't blame us for being impolite!"
"Impolite or not, how can you force the common people like this? Are you worthy of those uniforms you're wearing?"
"We don't have sand, but we have our lives. If you want to forcibly enter the Xiao family village to plunder sand, if you want to cut down chestnut trees on the mountain, you have to step over our bodies!"
"Yes! Step over our bodies!"
"What you're doing is no different from the bandits who robbed the common people of their food in ancient times!"
The vigorous voice behind was undoubtedly the
strong and sturdy young men of the Xiao family.
Both sides were stuck at the entrance of the Xiao family village, a vast crowd with countless figures.
One could vaguely see the divided zone in the middle of the battlefield.
The brick truck for transporting sand was parked on both sides of the road. At the front, there was a silver-gray sedan and three black cars.
Entering the Xiao family village from the outside were uniformed police officers, and facing outward from the Xiao family were the young men of the Xiao family holding iron shovels and hoes. Both sides confronted each other, neither willing to step back.
The car had reached the foot of the mountain with no road ahead. The people on the car had to get off and walk into the Xiao family village.
Bai Lu looked at more than ten well-built men in uniforms ahead, furrowing her brows slightly.
She asked Li Hongying, "Do they have official documents from the relevant departments?"
Li Hongying thought for a moment before saying, "Are you talking about the notice with the red stamp?"
Bai Lu nodded.
"Yes," Li Hongying immediately replied. "Their leader brought a young man with glasses. The young man had a work permit around his neck. We couldn't see it clearly from a distance, but we knew it was from the office in the city. He had a document in his hand... a notice. When they came, he glanced at it and it indeed had a big red stamp on it."
Seeing Bai Lu lost in thought, Lin Jinfan asked Xiao Guofu, "Did you see the contents of the document clearly?"
Xiao Guofu immediately replied, "I did. I personally saw it, and it indeed stated that we were illegally mining sand and gravel. It ordered us to return all of it. The chestnut mountain did not meet the standards, so we were asked to revert the land to forestry."
When Lin Jinfan was a child, he often went to the Xiao family village with Xiao Shurong, helping his grandmother cut rice. Everyone in the village knew him, and they knew he was a rare college student.
It took several years for the Xiao family village to produce a college student. In the eyes of the villagers, college students were particularly smart and wise, destined for great success in the future.
Xiao Guofu and Li Hongying were no exception. They had the deepest hopes for Lin Jinfan, not Bai Lu.
Bai Lu was smart in doing business but wasn't a college student. Her knowledge and experience were certainly not as extensive as Lin Jinfan's. Dealing with those uniformed people, she was definitely not as capable as Lin Jinfan.
Xiao Guofu and Li Hongying led the two of them through a detour to enter the Xiao family village, waiting for Lin Jinfan's answer along the way.
Like Bai Lu, Lin Jinfan was lost in thought.
Silent all the way, occasionally looking up at the situation at the village entrance, not knowing if he was thinking of a solution.
Relatives of Lin Jinfan's grandmother were already waiting outside. Seeing Lin Jinfan return, they immediately approached him and said, "Jinfan, your mother is already keeping vigil at the funeral home. Go offer incense to your grandmother first. This matter here can wait."
Lin Jinfan's grandmother passed away yesterday.
Now that the entrance of the village was in such chaos, the peaceful passing of the old woman seemed uneasy.
Lin Jinfan looked at Bai Lu and gently advised, "I'll go offer incense and come back. They are tall and strong, with great physical strength. You, a little girl, shouldn't try to stand out. Don't get hurt. If there's anything, wait for me to come back and discuss."
