Quick Transmigration Sweet Story, The White Moonlight Rescue Plan

This morning, sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting dappled shadows. As usual, Shen She followed Wang Da on their journey to town to buy rice and flour. The two chatted and laughed along the way, and soon arrived at the bustling market.

They wandered among the stalls, carefully selecting high-quality rice and flour. After some haggling with the vendors, they finally bought the goods they wanted. Then, carrying their heavy bags, the two began their journey home.

Just as they were about to return to the village, Shen She suddenly caught sight of a figure struggling to sit on the ground at the village entrance not far ahead. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was Wang Chunlian who had sprained her ankle. Her brow was furrowed, her face pale, and she was clutching her injured ankle tightly, clearly in great pain.

Seeing this, Shen She hesitated. He thought it best to avoid trouble and leave, but Wang Da, who was standing nearby, noticed his thoughts and quickly grabbed him, saying, "Oh dear, isn't this Chunlian? How could she be so careless? Come, come, let's help her get home." Without waiting for Shen She's agreement, he stepped forward and helped Wang Chunlian up.

Left with no other choice, Shen She followed Wang Da and helped the limping Wang Chunlian toward her home. They hadn't walked far when they arrived at the door of the village chief's house in the next village.

Just then, the village chief came out of the house. When he saw the scene before him, he was taken aback at first. But when he saw that the person was Shen She, his face immediately lit up with a bright smile. He greeted them warmly and said, "Oh, isn't this little Shen? Come in, come in. Thank you for your help!" As he spoke, he led the three of them into the house.

The villagers of Wangcun are mostly kind-hearted and simple. Here, if a family receives help from another, the host will always warmly invite the helper to their home for a sumptuous meal as a way of repaying the kindness. This custom is deeply ingrained in the village, and everyone understands it implicitly.

Typically, considering neighborly relations and saving face, those invited rarely refuse. After all, accepting the invitation is a way of responding to gratitude and can also strengthen relationships.

However, today was an exception. The usually honest and simple Wang Da shook his head and waved his hands repeatedly, a sheepish smile on his face, declining the invitation: "I'm so sorry! My wife prepared the meal at home early this morning and is waiting for me to come back. So I won't trouble you this time!" With that, he turned to leave.

The village chief hadn't really intended to invite Wang Da to stay for dinner, so seeing his firm refusal, he naturally nodded in agreement without hesitation. However, to the village chief's utter surprise, even the usually easy-going Shen She now indicated he wanted to leave. This made the village chief uneasy; he quickly stood up and blocked Shen She's path.

"Oh dear, Brother Shen, look at you. Since you don't have a wife to keep you in check, why don't you stay a little longer and have a proper meal with us?" the village chief said earnestly, his eyes full of expectation.

Wang Dayi glanced at the village chief's slightly upturned lips, which clearly revealed his double standards, and instantly understood what the village chief and his precious daughter were up to.

Wang Da quickly moved forward, pulling Shen She behind him without hesitation to protect him. At the same time, a bright but slightly sly smile appeared on his face as he loudly proclaimed, "Oh dear, Village Chief, you're not quite right! Look at Shen She, how could he be alone? He has a younger sister at home! If you sincerely want to invite him over for a meal, why not invite his sister along too? After all, they live right next door, very close by. Wouldn't that be perfect for both of them?"

The village chief hadn't expected Wang Da to respond so bluntly. He had been relying on his position as the village chief to forcefully try to keep Shen She, but now he could no longer hold back.

The village chief's old face instantly turned bright red, like a ripe apple, and he stammered in defense, "I was just planning to go and invite him in person later, wasn't I?"

However, Wang Dake wasn't having any of it. With a wave of his hand, he shouted loudly towards the opposite door, "Hey! Isn't it right across the street? I only need to shout like this and it'll be done. Why hesitate like this? Come on, let me shout it for you! Xiao Meizi..."

"Stop shouting! We'll go and ask them to stop!" The village chief's wife rushed forward anxiously, grabbing Wang Da's arm tightly, trying to stop him from continuing to shout.

However, Wang Da pretended to be stupid and said innocently, "Oh dear, isn't this just neighborly help-up? It's only right that we help each other out. What's there to be embarrassed about? You guys are just too shy. You can't even let go of such a small matter. Let me ask for you." As he spoke, he pretended to break free from the village chief's wife's hand.

"No, no, no, stop shouting! It's mealtime right now. It would be terrible if someone saw us!" The village chief quickly tried to dissuade him, attempting to use morality to restrain Wang Da. Unfortunately, Wang Da was unmoved and continued walking towards the fence, pretending to call out to Xiao Xiao.

"Hey, you guys, you're not doing anything immoral, so why are you being so secretive and sneaky?" Just then, Shen She, who had been silently observing the farce from the sidelines, also saw through the trick.

Shen She shook his head helplessly, a faint smile appearing on his lips. He took a step forward, bowed to the group of people who were pulling and tugging at him, and then declined sincerely but firmly, saying, "There's no need to trouble Uncle Wang and Aunt Li. There are still some dishes to prepare at home, and I'm really worried about leaving my cousin alone at home. As for rescuing Qinglian, it was just something Brother Wang and I did casually. It was really just a small favor, not worth mentioning, so I won't bother you any further."

After speaking, Shen She bowed to everyone again, then turned and left, leaving the few people behind him looking at each other, not knowing what to do.

"How... how could she just leave like that?" The village chief's wife stood there in astonishment, her mouth slightly agape, clearly still reeling from what had just happened. She watched helplessly as her daughter, who had been limping along, suddenly covered her face like a gust of wind and ran back into the house, her face full of grievance.

Seeing this, the village chief's wife was extremely anxious and no longer cared about arguing with Wang Da. She hurriedly ran towards her daughter, repeatedly saying, "My precious daughter, be careful with your foot, let your mother see where you're hurt?" As she spoke, she quickened her pace.

Meanwhile, the village chief, who had been standing nearby, couldn't help but sigh deeply and shake his head helplessly, as if he had expected what was happening.

Then, the village chief waved gently to Wang Da, indicating that he knew the other party was leaving, and then turned around and followed him into the house.

Wang Da, who remained where he was, calmly straightened his clothes, which had been askew when the village chief and his wife had pulled him. A mocking smile appeared on his face, as if he were already used to such scenes.

After tidying up his clothes, Wang Da looked up and glanced in the direction of the village chief's house. Then, humming a little tune with satisfaction, he set off on his way home with light steps.
