I can support you.

He quietly walked out of the guest room, tiptoed up to the second floor, came to the door of Xue Pianpian's room, hesitated for a moment, and then knocked on the door gently.

Xue Pianpian opened the door and saw Long Junyi. She exclaimed in surprise:

"Why did you come up here?"

Long Junyi said pitifully:

"Little nympho, I really want to be with you. I can only sleep peacefully when you are by my side."

Xue Pianpian felt a little helpless, but couldn't help but soften her heart, so she stepped aside to let him into the house.

As soon as Long Junyi entered the room, he hugged Xue Pianpian tightly, smelled the fragrance of her hair, and murmured:

"I want to hold you to sleep tonight."

Xue Pianpian's face turned red all of a sudden, but she didn't refuse.

The two of them lay on the same bed. Long Junyi contentedly held Xue Pianpian in his arms and soon fell asleep, murmuring Xue Pianpian's name in his dream from time to time.

Listening to his steady breathing and looking at his handsome face as he slept soundly, Xue Pianpian's face was filled with a happy smile. She sighed with contentment and soon fell asleep.

At 8:11 am on August , Xue Pianpian's entire family, together with Long Junyi, Chen Yu, and Wang Xin, a group of thirteen people, returned to their hometown in Yang County in four cars.

The original plan was to visit my two aunts first and then go back to the village in the afternoon.

But yesterday afternoon, the village chief Li Jinming called Xue Zhenguo and said that the villagers had some different opinions about the road construction in their hometown and hoped that their family would send a representative back.

Xue Zhenguo made a temporary decision to go back to his hometown directly and let Xuelian and Xuemei's families go to the village to meet them.

When Xue Pianpian and his group arrived at the village, many villagers had already gathered at the entrance.

Seeing their scene, people had different reactions. Some were happy, some were envious, some were expectant, and some were dissatisfied.

Xue Pianpian asked the others to go home first, and she got off the car with Xue Zhenguo.

Seeing the two of them, the village chief Li Jinming hurried over. He took a few steps forward, called them aside and whispered:

"Brother, Pianpian, you guys are finally back. I was so worried. There are so many things going on."

Xue Zhenguo smiled and said in a relaxed tone:

"What's the matter? It's just repairing a road. We are all from the same village. If you have anything to say, just talk it out. What's the rush?"

Li Jinming smiled bitterly.

"Brother, you don't know the details. If you knew, you would definitely curse at me."

Xue Zhenguo disagrees.

"Then tell me about it. I want to hear if it's that serious."

Li Jinming began to narrate:

"You know, our Pianpian is a generous and straightforward child. When he heard that our village was going to build a road, he took out all the money without saying a word.

Several of us on the village committee discussed it and decided that in addition to paving the several dirt roads in the village into asphalt roads, we will also pave the vacant lot in front of your house into concrete to make it more convenient for you to park when you come back.

We all think that since your family has contributed so much money, it is only normal for the village to express its opinion, and no one will have any objections.

Who knew that it wasn’t actually the case at all? Brother, those people are so disappointing!

I really didn't expect that there would be such ungrateful people in this world.

I put forward this proposal at the village meeting the day before yesterday morning. No one objected at that time, so I thought it was passed.

Who knew that at night, Jin Li came to me with a few people and said that they did not agree to harden the vacant land in front of your house.

They also threatened that if the village committee insisted on favoring your family, they would call the mayor's hotline to complain.

Brother, I really don’t know what to say.”

Xue Zhenguo frowned, his heart filled with surprise and resentment.

"Why is this happening? We pay for road construction to reduce the financial burden on everyone else. Even if we pave the road in front of our house, we are not taking advantage of them."

Li Jinming shook his head helplessly.

"It's just jealousy. Seeing that our family is doing well and Pianpian is generous, he feels unbalanced.

They also said that the vacant land is collective property and cannot be built into a parking lot for your family alone."

Xue Zhenguo snorted coldly.

"This vacant lot is in front of my house. It was paved with concrete to facilitate the people living nearby, not for my own use."

Li Jinming:

"I said that, but they just didn't agree. The higher-ups are very strict with village officials now, and we don't dare confront them, for fear that something serious might happen."

Xue Zhenguo pondered for a moment and said:

"This matter is actually very easy to handle. Since everyone has opinions, let's handle it impartially. Everyone has their own difficulties, and each family pays their own money. Our family's money is not blown by the wind, so why should we give them something to eat?

As for the open space at the door, you don't have to worry about it.

Our yard is big enough and the gate is wide enough, so there is no problem parking two cars."

Li Jinming nodded.

"Okay, brother, you're right! Let's do as you say.

I will inform the team members and announce it at the meeting immediately."

Hearing this, Xue Pianpian, who had been listening nearby, couldn't help but speak:

"Dad, won't people think we're playing too short? After all, we're all from the same village."

Xue Zhenguo smiled and said:

"Pian Pian, some people only think about taking advantage, they are self-centered in everything, and even think that the whole world has to revolve around them. For such people, we have to make them understand that no advantage is taken in vain.

However, Jinming, we don’t need to collect money from the poor families in our village, we will give it to them.”

Li Jinming nodded gratefully.

"Okay, thank you brother. I will call a meeting now and announce this decision."

Soon, the village committee members headed by Li Jinming gathered all the villagers together. If there were any families whose parents were not present, they asked their neighbors or close relatives to convey the message after the meeting.

When he announced this decision at the meeting, the crowd that had been talking a while ago suddenly quieted down.

The faces of several people who had fiercely opposed the village committee's decision before suddenly turned ugly, especially Li Jinli. He never expected that the Xue family would be so ruthless.

At the meeting that day, Li Jinming proposed that the open space in front of Xuezhen National Park be hardened into concrete to make it easier for their family to park when they return.

He was the first one to raise objection, and his reason was simple: they were all the same people, so why should they be treated differently? Does one have to be superior just because he is rich?

The explanation given by the village committee was that the money for building the village road was taken by Xue Pianpian.

To be honest, after hearing these words, his arrogance weakened a lot, but he felt even more unbalanced in his heart.

If the Xue family got rich through hard work, he could still accept it, but in fact, they won the lottery. I heard that they won the first prize. What's more infuriating is that they won ten times the amount. After deducting taxes, they got a full 80 million.

I don't know what kind of luck that little girl Xue Pianpian had, to have such overwhelming wealth all of a sudden. I can't figure it out, I really can't figure it out!

I clearly insist on buying lottery tickets every issue, but I have never won even once. It’s so infuriating!

If no one around him wins the lottery, he can still tell himself that the reason he didn't win is because the timing was not right, and as long as he persists, the jackpot will fall into his hands sooner or later.

But now, this incredible good luck fell on the people around him. His originally firm belief began to waver, and his mentality collapsed all of a sudden.

He seriously suspected that the reason why Xue Pianpian won the huge prize was because the person in charge of the lottery draw accidentally shook his hand and gave the good luck that should have belonged to him to the little girl by mistake.

Yes, that must be the case.

The more Li Jinli thought about it, the more he felt that his idea made sense, so he immediately made up his mind to make Xue Pianpian's family and the people in the village committee unhappy. Even if he couldn't change anything fundamentally, at least he could make them feel upset and disgusted, which would make him feel better.

The grand prize has already been given to someone else, and if he wants it, he will definitely not get it back. Finding fault and provoking others is his only way to vent his anger.

So, after the meeting that day, he immediately took action, running around and lobbying everywhere, his lips were almost worn out, and he finally succeeded in convincing a few people to agree to stand up with him to oppose. It was his idea to file a complaint.

But looking at the current situation, it seems that he has not achieved the purpose of causing trouble for others. Instead, he himself will probably become the target of public criticism soon.

He didn't even have to think about it, he could predict everyone's reactions and estimated that most people would blame them.

As expected, as soon as Li Jinming finished speaking, Zhang Xiaoyan, the daughter-in-law of Li Hongqi, who was always famous for her quick words, exclaimed:

"Brother Jinming, didn't you say in the last meeting that we don't have to pay for the road construction? Why did you change your mind now?"
