When the pears are green

After Song Li returned home, Song Yue hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Sister, where have you been?"

Song Li smiled and said, "Yueyue, I went to my second grandfather's house and asked Uncle Changming if he heard anything last night."

After hearing this, Song Yue hurriedly asked Song Li: "Sister, what did Uncle Changming say?"

Song Li repeated what Song Changming said to Song Yue. After listening, Song Yue said happily: "Uncle Changming is so nice!"

After Song Yue finished speaking, she complained about Wu Mingde in her heart again. If it weren't for Wu Mingde, the relationship between her sister and Xing'er wouldn't be like this.

At this time, Wu Mingde, who was studying in the classroom, sneezed several times. After hearing this, Li Yun'an whispered to him, "Mingde, I think Miss Song is talking about you again."

Wu Mingde said nothing and glared at Li Yun'an.

All of Li Yun'an's actions were seen by the teacher who was standing outside the window monitoring the students. The teacher punished Li Yun'an by asking him to take the book to the corridor to read.

When Wu Mingde saw this, he laughed out loud, and the teacher asked him to go to the corridor with Li Yun'an.

Wu Mingde looked at Li Yun'an with resentment, and Li Yun'an whispered to him: "This is called sharing the hardship."

Song Li also picked up a piece of cloth and learned how to embroider a handkerchief from Song Yue. As she embroidered, Song Li felt that the plain handkerchief was pretty good. They would be used anyway, so why embroider so much stuff on it?

About half an hour later, Zhang led Song Xing in from outside with an angry face.

Song Li hurried forward and asked Zhang: "Mom, what's wrong?"

Zhang looked at Song Li and said nothing. Song Li asked Song Xing again: "Xiao Xing, tell me what happened?"

Song Xing looked at Zhang and whispered to Song Li, "Big sister, Aunt Wang next door said there is something unclean in our house. She told everyone what happened in your dream yesterday. When we ran into her at the entrance of the village, she was drooling."

After hearing this, Song Li smiled and said to Zhang: "Mom, don't be angry, it's not worth it. When I told her about it this morning, I just wanted her to spread it so that some people would give up!"

After hearing this, Zhang was no longer so angry. She said, "But she can't say anything. She said it was because you fell into the water and your grandparents were worried that they came here."

After hearing this, Song Li burst out laughing. Zhang looked at Song Li, who was laughing so hard that she could hardly stand up straight. She asked Song Li, "Is it so funny?"

Song Li took a break and said to Zhang with a smile, "Mom, you know why you are bothering her. Mom, don't be angry. How is the corn in the field?"

Zhang sighed and said, "We shouldn't have let her take the knife away. The corn is fine. Not much has fallen. Let's all go to the fields tomorrow. I think we can fix it in the morning."

It had just rained, and there was still a lot of water in the chicken and duck pens. Zhang said to Song Li and her two siblings, "You three come here and clean up the chicken and duck pens, otherwise the smell will be unpleasant tomorrow when the sun comes out."

Song Li and Song Yue put down their needlework and walked over with Song Xing. The three of them started cleaning with brooms and shovels.

Song Li looked at the chicken coop which was no longer dirty. She asked Song Xing to open the gate. She wanted to go outside the yard to dig some soil and fill the low-lying areas. That way, there would be no water accumulation next time it rained.

As soon as Song Xing opened the door, he saw several people walking towards his house. There were six people in the group, young and old, men and women. A girl pointed at Song Xing and said to the middle-aged man who was leading the group, "Dad, look, there's someone at home!"

Song Xing stood at the door and looked from afar. He found that the person who came was the head of Wuzhuang Village, whom he had seen several times.

Song Xing hurriedly ran into the yard and said to Song Li, "Sister, the head of the village is here."

After hearing this, Song Li told Song Xing not to panic and asked him to go into the house and call Zhang out.

Before Zhang came out of the house, the village head and his group came in.

The middle-aged man in the lead saw Song Li and Song Yue and asked, "You must be Song Li and Song Yue, right? Although you are from the same village, I haven't met you very often."

Song Li looked at Song Yue, who nodded to her. Seeing this, Song Li smiled and said to the head of the village: "Head of the village, we are."

As soon as Song Li finished speaking, Zhang led Song Xing out of the house. She hurriedly walked to the head of the village and asked, "Head, what's the matter with you coming to our house?"

The village head smiled and said to Zhang: "I heard about what happened in your family last night, so I wanted to come and see you."

After hearing this, Zhang said to the head of the village gratefully: "Thank you so much, head of the village. After hearing what my little Li said, I am still worried! Our head of the family is not here, and there are only four of us at home. How can we feel at ease?"

An elder came over and said to Zhang: "Don't be afraid, Changhe family. We will help you find that person."

After hearing this, Zhang sobbed and said, "Thank you so much, Li Zheng and Mr. Liugen."

The news that the head of the village had come to Song Li's house spread quickly throughout the village. Soon, the gate of the Song family's courtyard was surrounded by villagers who came to watch the fun.

Lianlian squeezed in from the crowd, walked to Zhang's side, comforted Zhang and patted her on the back.

Lianlian said to Zhang: "Sister-in-law, I heard about it from others, so I came to see you. Don't worry, the head of the village is here, don't be afraid."

Lianlian looked at Zhang's uneasy expression, then looked at the three half-grown children in the yard and sighed. No one would feel at ease with this matter.

Just as Song Li was wondering how this incident could have alarmed the head of the village, a little girl ran over and said, "Sister, my name is Minghui. I heard someone at the entrance of the village say that someone broke into your house last night, and I remembered that Brother Yun'an once said that you were Lingling's friends, so I hurried home and told my dad."

After hearing this, Song Li said to Wu Minghui with great gratitude: "Thank you so much, Minghui."

After hearing this, Wu Minghui comforted Song Li and the others, saying, "Don't be afraid. My father is here. He will definitely not come again."

Song Li was very grateful to Li Yun'an in her heart. If it weren't for Li Yun'an, the head of the village probably wouldn't have worried about such things.

The village head looked at the scratches on the door bolt and said to the crowd outside, "I don't care who pried open Changhe's door last night. I'll let him go this time. Next time, no matter whose door he pried open, I will expel him from the village. Our Wuzhuang Village cannot tolerate such a scourge. A man bullies a group of women and children. Don't you know how shameful it is? Don't you know how to be ashamed? I'm making this clear today. Next time, I, Wu Wei, will be the first to not tolerate him."

The people watching at the door took a deep breath after hearing the words of the head of the village. It was too cruel to expel them from the village.

After hearing what the head of the village said, Zhang said excitedly, "Thank you so much, head of the village."

The village head talked to Zhang for a few more words, then took his people back. Before leaving, Wu Minghui said to Song Li and Song Yue, "I'll come to play with you in a few days."

After hearing this, Song Li and Song Yue smiled and nodded.

Song Li stared at the crowd outside. She saw Wang Juan. Seeing Wang Juan's expression of fear and unwillingness, she knew that this matter was related to her.

After the head of the village left, the crowd gradually dispersed. Several women who had a good relationship with Zhang came over to comfort her. They told her that the head of the village had already spread the word and that person would definitely not dare to come again.

Seeing that most people had left, Lianlian said goodbye to Zhang and went back.

After Song Li closed the gate, she heard Zhang say, "It's really strange. Usually the head of the village will come over when someone invites him to administer justice. Why did he come here uninvited today?"

After hearing this, Song Li smiled and told Zhang how they met Li Yun'an and Lingling, as well as the relationship between Li Yun'an and Wu Mingde.

After hearing this, Zhang smiled and said to Song Li, "It's not strange now. In fact, I was also woken up by the noise in the yard that afternoon when Da Hu came. But I saw so many people in the yard from the window, and they were all children, so I didn't come out. I just lay in bed until Da Hu and the others left."

After Zhang finished speaking, she remembered what the head of the village had said and felt relieved.
