Chapter 160 I refuse

"Old Party Secretary, you really have a keen eye. You understand it immediately." Tao Qiuyi said with a smile, "Since the weather is good today, I plan to go to the mountains to dig some medicinal herbs."

"You also know medicinal herbs?" After asking, the old Party Secretary slapped his forehead in frustration. "Judging from my memory, you can make herbal teas, so of course you know medicinal herbs."

"I'm old and my memory isn't good. You just asked Xiao Huai to bring herbal tea to my house last night."

Tao Qiuyi held the cup of water in both hands to warm them, "I can not only make herbal tea, but also a lot of medicine."

"So you also know medical skills?" The old branch secretary's cloudy eyes were shining with brilliance.

"No." Tao Qiuyi shook her head. After chatting for a while, the team leader still didn't show up, so she asked directly: "Old Party Secretary, are you alone here? Is the team leader here?"

The old Party Secretary said, "The team leader is out on business. What do you want to talk to him about?"

"Yes." Tao Qiuyi nodded seriously, and then told the old branch secretary about his plan to build a courtyard in advance. He also expressed his hope that the courtyard could be built as soon as possible.

The first question the old Party Secretary asked was, "Do you want to build a yard, or does Jing Yuan want to build a yard?"

"I want to build a yard, but I haven't told Wei Jingyuan yet." Tao Qiuyi replied.

"You haven't told Jing Yuan yet." The old Party Secretary looked at Tao Qiuyi in shock. "You and Jing Yuan are husband and wife. You came to us without telling Jing Yuan about such a big thing as building a courtyard. Aren't you afraid of Jing Yuan's objection?"

"He won't object." Tao Qiuyi said affirmatively. Wei Jingyuan and his two siblings said they would listen to her. Whoever dared to go back on his word would be allowed to continue living in the Wei family's yard.

Only those who are obedient can move with her to the newly built yard.

The old Party Secretary wanted to hit her head with the notebook on the table and tell her not to be so sure. But after thinking it over, he decided to let it go, considering that she saved his grandson's wife.

"Why do you want a yard? Doesn't the Wei family have a house to live in?" The old branch secretary asked the second question.

"We only have two rooms at the Wei family's house. Li Zi and Xiao Huai have grown up and must sleep in separate rooms." Tao Qiuyi said the reason he had thought of before coming.

It certainly couldn't be said that she was just making a fuss and didn't want to live in the same yard with those people from the Wei family anymore.

This was a reason. The old Party Secretary was silent for a while, then asked her, "Where do you want to build the yard?"

Tao Qiuyi thought this made sense. "I just passed by the open space in front of the bamboo forest and suddenly thought it would be nice to build a yard there. It would be quiet and peaceful."

"The open space in front of the big bamboo forest." The old Party Secretary never imagined that she would want to build a yard there. "Have you thought it through?"

Tao Qiuyi nodded heavily, "I've thought it through."

The old Party secretary reminded her, "If you build a yard there, it will be a lonely yard. There will be no neighbors on either side, and there is a large bamboo forest behind it."

"It's quiet there." Tao Qiuyi said with a smile, "I like quietness."

It was hard to imagine a 17-year-old girl saying she liked quietness. The old branch secretary waved his hand and said, "Okay, you go back first. I'll discuss this with the team leader and let you know when the decision is made."

"Thank you, old branch secretary." Tao Qiuyi expressed his gratitude very sincerely.

After leaving the brigade office, Tao Qiuyi headed straight for the mountain, caught two pheasants, and dragged two dead trees down the mountain. On the way, he met Wei Lao Da, Wei Lao San, and Li Yuegui, who were going to the mountain to chop firewood together.

Wei Lao Da and Wei Lao San were stunned when they saw Tao Qiuyi. Their eyes drifted from the basket on her back to the two dead trees she was dragging. It was a big deal for her to be able to drag one dead tree, but she actually dragged two at once.

This girl is really strong.

"Qiuyi, where did you find these two dead trees?" Li Yuegui's eyes widened as she watched Tao Qiuyi dragging a large dead tree in one hand.

Firewood, the two dead trees that Tao Qiuyi dragged were both firewood.

Not to mention two dead trees, even one dead tree can burn for at least a month!
Others would carry firewood down the mountain in a backpack or tie it in a bundle with a rope, but she simply dragged the tree down the mountain.

"On the mountain." Tao Qiuyi replied briefly and horrified. Seeing that Li Yuegui and the other two had no intention of giving way, she warned them. "Aunt San, you're blocking my way."

The mountain road was only this wide, and she was dragging a dead tree in one hand. If the three people in front of her didn't make way, it would be difficult for her to get through.

"Ah!" Li Yuegui seemed to have just noticed it and apologized with a smile. "I'm sorry, Qiuyi, I'm so sorry that Aunt San didn't notice it."

He apologized but didn't move a step.

If Tao Qiuyi still couldn't see at this time that Li Yuegui and the other two were deliberately blocking her way, she would be a fool.

"Qiuyi, Third Aunt wants to ask you for a favor, you will definitely not refuse, right?" Li Yuegui smiled flatteringly, even with a hint of ingratiation.

"I refuse." Tao Qiuyi refused directly. There was no way he could take advantage of her.

It was the first time that Li Yuegui met someone who spoke so directly, and for a moment she didn't know what to say next.

Li Yuegui was defeated, and Boss Wei took over. He coughed twice in a pretentious manner, "Wife Jingyuan, your uncle and I are not in good health. We have difficulty walking. Don't say..."

"You're strong enough to drag the dead tree down the mountain. Considering we're family and we're Jing Yuan and your elders, do you think we can..."

Before Boss Wei could finish his words, Tao Qiuyi had already refused. "No."

Thinking about the family division plotted by Wei Jingyuan, Wei Lao San was furious. He disliked Tao Qiuyi even more and angrily said, "Tao Qiuyi..."

"If you three block my way again, don't blame me for being rude." Tao Qiuyi interrupted Wei Laosan and looked at the three of them with a gloomy look.

An aura of majesty emanated from Tao Qiuyi, and the three of Wei Lao Da and Wei Sanye recalled the scene of being beaten in the yard of Wei Sanye's house.

They began to back out, but then they thought that if they could persuade Tao Qiuyi to help them, even if they dragged one dead tree home, not to mention two, it would be enough for the three of them to run several times.

"Qiuyi, Third Aunt...ah!" Li Yuegui had just opened her mouth when her body was swept aside uncontrollably and she sat on the ground with the confused Wei Laosan and Wei Laoda.

When the three of them came to their senses, Tao Qiuyi had already walked a long way away, dragging the dead tree.

Li Yuegui climbed up and cursed at Tao Qiuyi's back, "You little bastard, you damn bitch, don't let me catch you, or I'll kill you."

"A little girl is a little girl. She has no manners at all and doesn't know how to respect her elders. I said a lot of nice things to her, but she remained indifferent and even dared to hit me. Damn it, damn it."

"She's already gone far away, she can't hear you even if you curse at her. Let's go, don't think about taking advantage of us." Boss Wei stood up, brushed off the weeds on his body, and walked forward first.

"Hmm." You said it as if you didn't want to take advantage of others. Wei Lao San snorted disdainfully in his heart.
