Chapter 12

Wang Ximeng looked at Han Chunguang leaving and quickly grabbed his sleeve, saying, “Chunguang bro, you must save me! You must save me!”

“Relax, I’ll go out and see what the situation is, I can definitely get you out.”

When Han Chunguang went home and found out that his family had handed over 800 yuan, he was so angry that he gritted his teeth. That damned girl had swindled a total of 1000 yuan out of him, he absolutely wouldn’t let her off!

Later he also heard that the Wang family had borrowed money somewhere, thinking about it, Wang Ximeng was also one of his good followers, he couldn’t just let him fall into it.

He also asked his mother for 200 yuan and pulled Wang Ximeng out.

Li Yuechan looked at the 1600 yuan she had earned recently, her mouth almost unable to close from how happy she was.

She hummed a cheerful little tune as she strolled around her own yard, “Today is a good day, everything I wish for will come true, today is a good day…”

Seeing the rice stalks had already grown more than a foot in just two days, at this rate of development, it wouldn’t be more than a week before they could be harvested, and she could make a little more money!

On the other side, at the Luoan City Public Security Bureau dormitory.

“Captain, we don’t have any clues now, what are we going to do?”

Gu Zhixing frowned, “How’s it going with Dong? Any news?”

Little Zhou shook his head and replied, “Elder Brother Dong only has news from three days ago.”

Gu Zhixing’s brow furrowed even deeper. After the mission to arrest the special agent last time,

remembering that Lü Weidong just happened to be going back home to visit his family, and his family was just in Bailiu Village, he had also included him in the team to arrest the special agent this time.

Because the higher-up suspected there were special agents within the Luoan City Public Security Bureau, he was temporarily assigned to be the captain of the Criminal Investigation Squad in Luoan City Public Security Bureau.

But who would have thought that later Dong was sacrificed during the special agent arrest, and he himself was also injured, and the special agent took the opportunity to escape.

When he was sent to the hospital, it was actually discovered that he had the enemy agent’s secret letter on him, and this time he was implicated and accused of having ties with the enemy agent, with solid evidence against him.

Later he was locked up, and he thought he could clear his name, but who could have imagined that the other side had prepared the evidence so thoroughly.

His grandfather’s illness worsened because of this incident and he didn’t make it.

His parents tried to save him, but also fell into the trap of his political enemy, in the end the whole family was implicated.

He spent five years in prison, and was even poisoned, dying in prison.

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh, his previous life was really so miserable!

Bailiu Village,

“Weidong, who was that young man I saw come to your house the other day? Was he your brother’s comrade-in-arms?”

Lu Weidong smiled and nodded, “No, he was just one of my brother’s friends passing by, so he came to see him.”

“Oh, does the young man have a girlfriend?”

Lu Weidong shook her head, “Auntie, how can I ask about that?”

“Haha, I was just casually asking, that young man looked quite vigorous, how long is your brother staying this time?”

“Oh, half a month.”

Li Guilan’s eyes lit up when she heard this, and she went on to ask, “And how about your mother?”

“Oh, she’s in the backyard watering the vegetables.”

“Is that so? Then I’ll go in and chat with her.” Saying that, she walked into Lu Weidong’s house, swaying her waist.

Lu Weidong knew that Auntie Guilan’s family had a daughter, and she had always wanted to introduce her to her brother,

but her brother had said he already had a girlfriend in the army, and Auntie Guilan was still relentless.

Lü Weidong was splitting firewood in the yard, and when he saw Auntie Guilan coming again, he just greeted her with a wave of the ax and walked away.

He had already made some discoveries recently, the Zheng family in the village must have some problems. Zheng was originally from their village, and had married a widow in the village, but the two of them didn’t have any children, and they weren’t very active in their work either, at most only ten inches a day.

But he had noticed in the past two days that Zheng’s clothes had very few patches, and when he went out at night, he could smell the scent of meat around their house. In this meat-lacking era, their family was actually able to afford to eat it, which was quite rare.

And Zheng would go to the mountains every three days, he would just go and take a look.

After eating, Li Yuechan took a little nap, and then went out again, heading to the waste collection station.

She was in a cheerful mood, humming a little tune.

When she passed by a supply and marketing cooperative, she bought another bag of fragrant sunflower seeds, which was a good thing that didn’t require a ticket.

When she arrived at the waste collection station, she saw Wang Ye leisurely sitting at the door, holding a ceramic tea jar.

Li Yuechan enthusiastically went over to him, “Grandpa, do you remember me?”

Wang Ye looked up, “Oh, it’s you, little girl, what are you here for again?”

Li Yuechan squatted down next to Grandpa Wang and took out a handful of sunflower seeds to hand to him,

sweetly saying, “Grandpa, try these, they’re so fragrant!”

Wang Ye shook his head, “Girl, you eat them yourself.”

Li Yuechan knew the relationship had to be built up slowly, so she said,

“Grandpa, you may not know, but thanks to the walking stick I bought from you, I would have been in big trouble, there were burglars in our house…”

As she spoke, her little hands were constantly gesturing, her cherry lips like a machine gun, vividly describing the process of catching the burglar.

Wang Ye listened intently, amused by her words, and couldn’t help but reach out and grab a small handful of sunflower seeds, popping them in his mouth.

In this way, the two of them chatted back and forth, and unknowingly, more than two hours had passed.

Li Yuechan’s mouth had become dry from talking so much, so she took out a water bottle from her bag and gulped it down.

After drinking the water, she wiped the corner of her mouth with the back of her hand and stood up to say goodbye to Wang Ye, “Grandpa, I’m leaving, it’s getting dark soon, I need to go home.”

Wang Ye was reluctant to part, but looking at the time, it was indeed getting late.

He nodded and concernedly admonished, “Little girl, you have to be careful,

your parents often work night shifts, you being a young girl at home is really not very safe.”

Li Yuechan slapped her forehead in frustration, “Grandpa, you’re so right! I almost forgot, yesterday when I caught that burglar, I was so anxious that I even broke the walking stick.

So today I wanted to pick out an even sturdier and more handy one from you as a backup.” She then winked playfully at Wang Ye.

“Then go pick one quickly, it’ll be time to get off work soon.”

“Okay, Grandpa.”

Li Yuechan went in and came out shortly after, holding a jewelry box and a table leg.

“Grandpa, how about this jewelry box, if any bad guys come, I can use it to hit them on the head,

and this table leg looks good too, if they dare to provoke me, I’ll just…”

As she said this, she swung the table leg fiercely.
