Wen Wan's arrangement was very good, but Zhang Lan, who had other thoughts, was not satisfied.

"This..." Zhang Lan was embarrassed, "How can I ask for a gift back after giving it away? How can my sister-in-law live like this in the future?

Besides, it’s already the end of February and it’s almost March. Who would keep the New Year gifts? They would have been eaten long ago.

You know my parents, they always take things in, never take things out, even if they want to borrow, they won’t lend.”

This means to push the problem to Wen Wan to solve.

He is really good at taking advantage of every opportunity.

Wen Wan said: "What you are talking about are the problems you need to solve. They have nothing to do with me."

"Second brother's wife, if you say so, then I won't deal with this matter. At most, I will do labor reform for a period of time like Lu Yiming and your sister.

But you can rest assured, when the police station asks me, I will definitely say that it was you and Lao Er who asked me to do so.

Otherwise, how would I, a rural woman, know how to run a workshop?

It is said that you paid the workers so much last year just to make your relatives jealous and make them willing to give you generous gifts to work in your workshop.

Once the workshop is set up, you and the second brother will not take responsibility for it.

And those gifts had no marks, so I said they were all given to you and the second brother.

When the time comes, we will all go through labor reform together, and no one can escape."

Facts have proved that Zhang Lan not only acts like a rogue to outsiders, but also to her own family members with ease.

She is also gifted in playing dirty tricks. From Wen Wan's last sentence, one can guess that Wen Wan cares a lot about whether this matter will involve her and Xie Changqing.

As long as you care, that is your weak spot. You will not go wrong if you grab it without hesitation.

It was really because of concern that she became confused. For the first time since her rebirth, Wen Wan felt so overwhelmed that she even forgot the words "As long as you don't care, nothing can threaten me", allowing Zhang Lan to take advantage of such a big loophole.

She knew that the comrades at the police station acted based on evidence, and Zhang Lan's empty talk would not have any impact on her.

But Xie Changqing...

It's still the same old problem. Xie Changqing's job is of a special nature. He does this kind of work mostly to realize his ambitions and fulfill his mission, not as a secular labor exchange for the sake of living expenses.

For a man of blood, this kind of spiritual thing is even more important than any wealth and life.

She didn't want anything to happen that would affect Xie Changqing's work, and was thinking about how to deal with Zhang Lan, but Xie Changqing coldly refused.

"Sister-in-law, Wanwan has already given suggestions on how to deal with it. It's up to you whether to do it or not.

We will not interfere with the rest, you can go now."

Wen Wan didn't have time to see what Zhang Lan's expression was. Anyway, she was shocked and thought to herself, "Dude, aren't you being a little reckless? What if she really gets desperate?"

Knowing that she was anxious, Xie Changqing gave her a reassuring look that said 'don't worry, it's okay'. Wen Wan gave her a half-believing and half-doubting look in return, and was about to ask further questions when Zhang Lan started to get crazy again.

"Second brother, how can you say such a thing? Aren't we a family?

When you made money from the workshop last year, you didn't give me, your sister-in-law, any benefit! This year, you gave me the workshop because you knew there would be problems.

Now that something has happened, you just pat your butt and say you don't care. You are too heartless."

"..."

"Okay! Since you have no conscience, you can't blame your sister-in-law for turning against you. If you don't help me, I will go find Lu Antai. The Lu family lost so much money because of your wife's scheme, they must hate you two.

I'll go find him, he'll definitely be willing to help me."

Wen Wan felt upset about her mistake again and told Zhang Lan that this incident was similar to the one where Lu Yiming and Wen Ya were cheated out of money by villagers. No matter how dumb she was, she could guess that this incident was related to Lu Antai.

If we can guess that it is related to Lu Antai, the remaining threats will fall into place easily.

What a useless thing! How come you are going backwards as time goes by? Wen Wan cursed herself in her heart.

Things have come to this point, and I can only let others do whatever they want. This can be considered as a lesson for myself, reminding myself not to do it again.

Wen Wan closed her eyes and said, "Just tell me what you want!"

"Wouldn't it be fine if you were as nice as you are now when I got here? You have to make me waste my breath."

After hearing this, Wen Wan just wanted to take back what she had just said and let her go wherever she wanted.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Lan hadn't finished boasting yet, and continued half-sarcastically: "Although I am greedy for money, I am still sensible and can distinguish between relatives and strangers. I know who to support.

As long as you help me pay back the gifts I owe to my relatives, pay their wages, and then give me your eldest brother's wages.

I will definitely stand on your side, and I will also let my relatives turn against you and say that it was Lu Antai who ordered it."

At this point, Wen Wan was already mostly sober. With her unintentional guidance, Zhang Lan not only figured out the whole story, but also had a response strategy.

With such an active mind, it is not difficult to figure out that after Wen Wan helped her wipe her butt clean, she would turn around and sell her out to Lu Antai to get benefits.

It’s not impossible for Zhang Lan to take advantage of both sides and squeeze out all the benefits.

He couldn't let her lead him by the nose anymore. This time it wasn't Wen Wan's turn to speak, and Xie Changqing refused without any argument.

Xie Changqing said: “I have made it very clear, sister-in-law should solve her own problems, and if it involves us, we will handle it ourselves.

There is no need to say any more nonsense, just get lost!"

He had already used the word 'get out', and coupled with his sullen face, Zhang Lan was a little scared, but she really couldn't handle this matter without their help.

Zhang Lan swallowed nervously and was about to say something when she met his terrifying gaze that made her scalp tingle.

After the person left, Wen Wan slapped herself on the face twice in regret.

"Can you please not make mistakes every time you open your mouth?"

Wen Wan was so angry that she gritted her teeth and wanted to hit herself, but she was afraid of hurting herself so she held back. She looked so adorable that the corners of Xie Changqing's lips gradually rose, and even his eyes curved when he smiled.

"Xie Changqing, where is your cold and aloof personality? Is it appropriate to smile at this time?" Wen Wan rolled her eyes speechlessly.

"What else?" Xie Changqing raised his eyebrows and asked, "Would you slap yourself in regret like you did?"

"..." Wen Wan choked, and after struggling for a moment, she said, "I am also a human being, okay? It is normal to have a car accident occasionally. Is it necessary to mock me like this?"

Xie Changqing said with a smile: "I am the victim, okay? The way you are now, it seems like you are the one who is wronged."

"..." Although she felt unhappy, she had to admit that what he said was true. Wen Wan sighed and said, "I'm sorry! If it weren't for..."

"I'm very happy." He smiled with a look of satisfaction, his eyes full of tenderness.

"?" Wen Wan thought he was crazy.

The next second, Wen Wan was held in his arms, so tightly that she almost couldn't breathe.

"Are you going to strangle me to death?" Wen Wan patted his back and asked him to move away.

"I am very happy," he said, "you are very smart and wise, and you always speak and act in a flawless manner.

This time you let your sister-in-law catch you doing something wrong, which shows that you care about me a lot and are afraid that my sister-in-law's affairs will implicate me, so you performed poorly.

It means that I am becoming more and more important in your heart. I like this.”

Is he becoming more and more important in her heart?

Wen Wan asked herself and realized that she seemed to care about him more and more.

Not for any other reason, just because Wen Wan doesn't like to owe favors to others. Xie Changqing treats her so sincerely, she should repay him.

She had read in a book in her previous life that "love" is a verb, meaning "to love."

If you love someone, you should do something for him. If he is hungry, cook him a bowl of noodles; if he is sleepy, make him a bed; if he is unhappy, comfort him...

If you do more things to "love" the other person, the feeling of "love" will naturally arise.

Xie Changqing's deep affection was worth her doing this. As for whether it was love from the bottom of her heart, Wen Wan didn't know, but she was willing to do it.

For example, now, she is willing to sacrifice some of her intelligence for Xie Changqing.

Even so, she will always remain rational and exit at any time to stop losses when the effort is not worth it.

This was the only way Wen Wan could think of to both live up to Xie Changqing's affection and avoid getting too deeply involved.
