Chapter 70: Jiaojiao is spoiled by the rough man

Hearing his last words, Su Wanwan was about to nod in agreement, but hesitated because of her previous assumption. Xu Yan seemed to have a deeper meaning: "You mean..."

Su Wanwan paused for a moment, and then she reasoned along the lines of his words: Xu Yan had gotten up early, and the hot water he prepared for her was not early either, and there were almost no people waiting outside the door at that time. If Li Meifen really woke up because of the sound of boiling hot water, she would have enough time to return to the room.

However, she did not do so.

"Because evil will always be punished." Xu Yan said calmly, and the answer was immediately obvious: no wonder he chose to return to the next room after bringing her hot water. He gave Li Meifen a glimmer of hope, and then broke it with his own hands, leaving the latter in a fruitless and blamed situation. This made everything clear.

"These words may be useful." Su Wanwan quickly flipped through the booklet in her hand, smiling secretly as she copied the contents on her inspection book with a pencil. The inspection books for each villager were not big, and the font size was not small, so a few hundred words could fill a page.

She selected the parts on paper that were applicable to all situations but had ambiguous meanings, copied them down, added some of her own words, and finished writing the entire article in just a few minutes.

"Is this okay?" Su Wanwan would read it over and over again, making sure every sentence flowed smoothly, but...it felt like something was missing.

In fact, there is nothing to describe in detail... "It's already very good, much better than what many young people have written." Xu Yan did not say anything against his will.

Because she saw another self-criticism book. After unfolding it, Su Wanwan was shocked by the childish self-criticism content and wrong words, as well as the obvious traces of erasure.

"This is written by... Bai Luwei?" This is illogical! According to my memory, a young man like Bai Luwei should submit a self-criticism to the branch secretary from time to time. Why is this the case?

"He wrote it and asked me to revise it." Xu Yan folded up the self-review and continued, "That's why you said it so well."

Su Wanwan silently stopped asking, "Oh, right..." She put away her inspection paper and looked up at Xu Yan, "The young captain who assigned us the task... You must have gone to see her, right?"

"Yes, the work she assigned to you is obviously unfair, so of course I have to intervene." Xu Yan's answer was firm, which surprised Su Wanwan a little.

But she still wondered, "However, so many tasks were not decided by the team leader himself, but by the branch secretary, right? Can you just go to her directly?"

Su Wanwan stared at Xu Yan with suspicion and waited for a reply. At this time, more and more young women around Lan Ying joined in the quarrel, and a few young men who were curious also joined in. The rest of the young people formed an arc after dinner to watch the debate in front.

"I'll say it again, what happened this morning was all a misunderstanding. If you still don't believe me, go ask the village chief!" Bai Luwei, who was already at a disadvantage in the war of words, waved his hands eagerly, trying to get rid of everyone's attention.

This was a rare public speech for him, so he was inevitably nervous, and his last few sentences were almost trembling. Although he explained it for a long time, it felt like it only added to the misunderstanding.

"Where are you going? Do you think you can fool us with a few empty words? The village group leader and the branch secretary did not hold you accountable for your personal behavior. Instead, you seem particularly agitated! You are the one with the lowest reputation in what happened last night. Do you still have the nerve to say 'the innocent will be cleared' now?"

The people around him immediately stepped forward, surrounded Bai Luwei and prevented him from leaving.

The original intention may have been just to defend himself, but as the crowd continued to grow, things became increasingly uncontrollable. Now the situation is that Bai Luwei's active attempt to defend himself was ineffective, so he tried to leave...

"In our Baihua Village, such a thing is simply unheard of! Perhaps it is already commonplace for young people!" Lan Ying was standing right in front of Li Meifen, her eyes fell on the trapped white reeds, and she expressed her opinion in a clear and loud voice.

"That's right! Just look at their attitude, they clearly feel they are being wronged.

After only a few days here, they couldn't control their emotions and caused this! If this happened in their hometown, I'm afraid it would be even more outrageous! "

"We can't solve this problem just by finding your team leader." Unexpectedly, Su Wanwan had already expected this. Xu Yan suddenly smiled slightly, and his tone remained calm during the heated debate: "Although I didn't meet the village party secretary, I met the team leader, who is responsible for the distribution of production team tasks."

"Then how did you convince him to reduce our workload to today's level? You don't understand... other young people are panicking because of the amount of work today. Just thinking about today's work makes me want to laugh."

Before this, Su Wanwan had never expected that there would be such an easy life!

"How is it possible to convince them? If they could be reasonable, you wouldn't be so busy for several days." Xu Yan blinked helplessly, hinting at the connection.

Hearing this, Su Wanwan immediately understood:

"You mean... they got some benefits?"

Xu Yan did not respond directly.

"How much benefit did you give them?" Su Wanwan couldn't help but have doubts in her heart when she thought that Xu Yan actually took the initiative to give money and property to these hateful people.

Obviously, we all work hard to earn money, so why give it to those who only know how to intrigue and do nothing?

"It's not a large number." Xu Yan gently held her hand, took her away from the focus of the dispute, and whispered: "This is enough, as long as it can solve the problem."

Staring at Xu Yan's arm with the bandage on it, Su Wanwan noticed some mottled scars on it and lowered her eyes: "You've been injured a lot, right?"

Noticing that Xu Yan's arms were covered with old wounds, Su Wanwan instinctively doubted the authenticity of the question. But before she could ask further questions, Xu Yan's words suddenly echoed in her mind:

"I will tell you everything when the time is right."

"Have you lived in the village since you were a child?" she asked softly.

This has been a question that Su Wanwan has had in mind for a long time. If Xu Yan grew up in a village, how did he accumulate such a rich network of contacts, and how did he discover so many ways to make money for himself?

"I guess so." Xu Yan caught Su Wanwan's confusion and replied with a smile, "In the past few years, society was not peaceful. My family was poor and sick. We often had difficulty eating and wearing warm clothes, and even wandered outside. Because of this... I traveled to some places and formed a network of contacts by chance."

Su Wanwan expected Xu Yan to continue talking, but when he got to this point, his expression had already turned serious and he was unwilling to talk further.

The quarrel continued fiercely.

"You can't just make assumptions about others based on your own inner shadows! Since I, Li Meifen, moved to this village, I have never caused any damage to this village. Why do you treat me like this?"
