Because of the backlight, Lin Xi couldn't see the person's face clearly, so he had no idea who the person was.
"Are you okay?" Zhang Yujie was reluctant to enter the house and spoke timidly.
"It's you! Come in and talk!"
After knowing that the person coming was Zhang Yujie, he thought that she was still pregnant and it would not be appropriate to let her stand at the door and talk, so he asked her to come in.
"No need. I'll leave first since I know you're fine." Zhang Yujie would never go in. She put down the eggs in her hand and turned away.
The reason why Zhang Yujie knew about Lin Xi's foot injury was because she had just overheard the conversation between her and her eldest brother, so she hurried back to prepare eggs.
Although there are not many, it is a token of my appreciation!
Lin Xi's face was filled with black lines. Was he some kind of man-eating monster? Why were none of them willing to come into the house and sit for a while?
Looking at the eggs at the door, Lin Xi had no choice but to walk over and take them back, thinking that if she didn't return them, she would give them back to Zhang Yujie with other things instead. After all, she needed these eggs more than her.
Just after putting the eggs down, Su Mo also came over with ten eggs. He also didn't go into the house. He put the eggs down and ran away. Lin Xi was too lazy to try to keep him.
What she didn't expect was that as soon as Su Mo left, Mrs. Li also came over with eggs, using the same trick. After saying a few words, she put down the eggs and left. She couldn't be stopped even if she was called. Lin Xi had become numb to it.
Later, even the village head's wife brought some things to see her, "Lin Zhiqing, is your foot better?"
The difference was that the village chief's wife walked into the house, put the basket on the table and sat next to Lin Xi.
"Much better, it's nothing serious. Auntie, how did you know that my foot was injured?" Lin Xi thought that this time he finally didn't just put down the things and leave.
"I just met Mrs. Li and she told me." The village chief's wife didn't intend to hide it from Lin Xi and told him the truth!
"It turns out it's her!"
This makes sense. Mrs. Li is a well-known gossip in the village. Anything she knows will most likely spread in the village.
The village head's wife thought Lin Xi was angry with Mrs. Li, but after thinking for a while she decided to say a few good words for Mrs. Li, "Lin Zhiqing, don't be angry with her, she just means well."
"I'm not angry with her." Lin Xi knew that she was not angry, she just felt it was troublesome. She was afraid that everyone in the village would come to see her, and she would be exhausted to death.
She just doesn't like socializing anymore. It's too much trouble. Plus, she's afraid that what she says might offend people, so she has never liked socializing.
"I'm glad you're not angry. I'll go back first. I've made an appointment with Gu's mother to pick up mountain products together! If you hadn't hurt your foot, we could still go together!" The village chief's wife had a look of regret on her face.
"Okay, then you go and do your work first!" Lin Xi didn't ask to keep the person because she knew that even if she asked, she couldn't keep him. It would be better not to say anything at the beginning.
"Okay, take good care of your injuries!"
After saying this, the village chief’s wife left without even taking the basket, because she knew that Lin Xi would return the basket to her later.
"Oh! I don't know if anyone will come to my house in the future." Lin Xi was very distressed and she wanted to hide away.
But when I thought about how my foot had just been injured and it didn't make sense for it to heal immediately, I had to sit back down.
As expected, Mrs. Li was telling everyone about her injured foot. Many villagers came to see her with things in their hands. They just said a few words, put down their things and left without saying a word more. Lin Xi's face was almost stiff from smiling.
After sending the last villager away, Lin Xi immediately collapsed on the stool. Oh my God! Someone please save her! This is even more tiring than killing zombies.
Lin Xi gently pulled the muscles on his face, and after making sure that he had not become paralyzed from laughing, he looked at the things the villagers had brought.
Although the villagers brought some vegetables grown by themselves and eggs laid by their own hens, and although each person brought not much, there were so many people coming to see her!
So there were so many vegetables and eggs that they couldn’t fit on the table and were placed directly on the ground.
Seeing the mountains of vegetables and eggs, Lin Xi said that she could not finish them all. In order not to arouse other people's suspicion, she could not directly put these things into the space to preserve them, so she could only think of a best of both worlds way to deal with these vegetables and eggs.
But what can we do? We need to think about it carefully...
Got it! Lin Xi suddenly thought of a relatively reasonable solution at the moment, which was to send these dishes to Gu's mother and let her cook them for the people on the mountain.
But my foot is still "injured" and I am not suitable to do this. Who else is the most suitable to do this? Lin Xi fell into deep thought again...
Who should I let deliver it? Lin Xi thought for a few minutes, but still couldn't think of who was the most suitable person.
At this moment, the village chief's voice reached Lin Xi's ears, and Lin Xi suddenly understood. That's right! How could she have forgotten about the village chief? I guess no one is more suitable than him!
"Lin Zhiqing, is your foot feeling better? Do you want me to ask Lao Liu to drive the ox cart over to take you to the hospital?" As soon as he finished speaking, the village chief was already standing at the door of Lin Xi's house, but he did not come in. Instead, he stood by the door and talked to Lin Xi.
"Uncle Village Chief, my foot is much better now. I don't need to go to the hospital. I think it will be fine in two days. I just happened to need your help with something. I didn't expect you to come. You are so punctual."
"Just tell me what you want me to do for you. I will definitely help you if I can!"
"I have a lot of vegetables sent by villagers. I can't finish them all at once, and they will rot if I keep them. So I thought about asking you, the village chief, to send these vegetables to Aunt Gu's house and let them cook them for the people in the mountain." Lin Xi expressed his thoughts.
The village chief laughed out loud after hearing this, and it was obvious that he was very happy. "I thought it was a difficult task! Since you are so willing to do this, then uncle will help you no matter what."
"Then thank you, uncle village chief." Lin Xi had already guessed that the village chief would not refuse, but he still thanked him seriously!
"What are you thanking me for? If I have to thank someone, I should thank you on behalf of those people!" The village chief did not dare to take credit for himself. These were all things that happened easily and would not take him much time.
On the contrary, Lin Xi, she was already very admirable for having this idea. Although these dishes were also sent by the villagers, they were hers since they were given to her. How could he not be moved when Lin Xi was willing to take out these dishes!
"I can't finish all this anyway, so just consider it as a good deed. I hope they don't mind the small amount." Lin Xi said such nice words that the village chief was speechless for a moment!
Lin Xi didn't say that on purpose, but she was afraid that some people would take advantage of her and still be ungrateful, complaining about this and that. If they were really that annoying, she might as well cook them and feed them to the dog. After all, the dog would wag its tail at her if it ate her food!
