Ancestors, I told you to seduce the villains, not to turn evil.

Zhou Zhiguo knew Zhao Hu; he had practically watched Zhao Hu grow up. When he heard that Fei Huainan couldn't work for him, he became unhappy.

"Why not? The benefits I offer are quite good."

Zhao Hu scratched his head, looking helpless: "But Brother Fei is the head of the military section of our armed forces department. He already has a work permit. You can't poach our people!"

What?

Is Fei Huainan a member of the Armed Forces Department?

Zhou Zhiguo froze on the spot, then gritted his teeth.

Now he finally understands what that bastard Zhao Guoan was laughing about when he left.

hemp eggs.

He poached the guy ahead of time, and instead of saying anything earlier, he just watched him make a fool of himself. He must have just wanted to see him make a fool of himself.

He got tricked again.

In the car.

As soon as Zhao Guoan got into the car, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.

The mayor turned to look at him, amused.

"You started smiling as soon as you got in the car, what's wrong?"

Zhao Guoan laughed as he recounted how Zhou Zhiguo had poached his employees. The mayor, upon hearing this, couldn't help but laugh as well.

"All you do is bully Zhiguo all day long. He'll definitely come after you when we get back."

Zhao Guoan wasn't afraid at all; instead, he said with a smug look, "He'd have to be able to beat me first."

Zhou Zhiguo really wanted to fight Zhao Guoan.

He'd been tricked again.

Angry.

Zhou Zhiguo lost face, snorted coldly, and turned to leave. But when he looked back at the empty seat, he remembered that Zhao Guoan had left in his car.

He even lost his car.

Zhao Hu looked at Zhou Zhiguo with sympathy: "Uncle Zhou, I'll go back later too. I'll give you a ride on my bicycle."

Zhou Zhiguo gave a cool "hmm".

What else could he do? If they didn't agree, he would have to walk back. The county magistrate felt he had completely lost face today.

The village chief standing next to him was completely dumbfounded.

Why is there anything about the Armed Forces Department? When did Fei Huainan become a member of the Armed Forces Department? How come he didn't know about this?

Before Li Botao had even left, the village chief secretly glanced at him.

Li Botao shook his head secretly.

He didn't know about this either!

Zhao Hu ignored the commotion between the village chief and Li Botao and walked up to Fei Huainan.

"Brother Fei, the minister wants you to start work tomorrow."

"A driver will come to pick you up in the morning. If you want to go to the county town, ask the driver to take you there."

Zhao Hu finalized the work agreement with Fei Huainan and left the village without lingering. He then rode his bicycle with Zhou Zhiguo on his back.

Zhao Huqi rode crookedly.

It had snowed heavily the day before, making the roads difficult to travel. It was alright when he was alone, but when the two of them were together, the car kept slipping.

Zhou Zhiguo sat in the back, trembling with fear.

He regretted it; he should have taken a car and left then. He's so old; he can't afford to fall.

Zhao Hu was also sweating profusely, afraid that he might drop Zhou Zhiguo.

Xu Manman watched as most of the people dispersed, and a cold wind blew by, causing her to shiver.

Upon seeing this, Fei Huainan immediately put the hat on Xu Manman's head, his voice gentle.

"Come on, go home."

The two of them went home together and had just arrived.

Lü Ming ran up.

He positioned Fei Huainan in a perfect horse stance in the courtyard. Fei Huainan pushed him, and Lü Ming lost his balance, staggering and falling to the ground.

Xu Manman couldn't help but laugh when she saw Lü Ming's adorable appearance.

Fei Huainan assigned training tasks to Lü Ming.

I practice horse stance for three hours every morning.

In order to focus on training, Lü Ming didn't even go to see the commotion at the Liu family's house.

Today, he easily completed the horse stance and felt that he had met Fei Huainan's requirements, so he couldn't help but come over to show it off.

As a result, Fei Huainan pushed him down with just one finger.

"Training requires a solid foundation. Do you think you're amazing just because you can hold a horse stance for three hours?"

When Fei Huainan was reprimanding people, his expression was very serious, and he looked somewhat fierce.

Lu Ming's eyes instantly reddened.

Xu Manman came out of the room: "Xiaoming is already very capable."

As she spoke, she pinched the muscles on Lü Ming's forearm.

It's rock hard; it looks like he really didn't slack off during training.

For such a young age, he is quite self-disciplined; such children are relatively rare.

When Fei Huainan heard Xu Manman praising Lü Ming, he glanced at her and then said quite frankly, "He is indeed a bit better than you."

Xu Manman glared at him fiercely.

Fei Huainan smiled, realizing that Xu Manman was becoming less and less afraid of him.

At first, I wanted to stay far away and did everything with bated breath.

You still dare to glare at him now.

Lu Ming couldn't understand the subtle thoughts between the adults, but he knew that Brother Fei's mood would improve whenever he saw Sister Manman.

It doesn't look scary anymore.

The thought that his goal was to protect his mother from being bullied gave him renewed confidence.

He received his new assignment and didn't stay long before going back to practice.

When Lü Ming left, Xu Manman gave him a few pieces of fruit candy before letting him go.

We're having pork ribs tonight.

Outside the window, it's a world of ice and snow, while inside, a pot of pork ribs is simmering on the stove, bubbling away. Add some potatoes, eggplants, and green beans, and how comforting that would be.

Add a few more cornbreads, and it smells amazing.

Xu Manman took out ribs from her spatial storage and asked Fei Huainan to chop them. She kneaded the dough, adding some white sugar and red dates to make it taste even better.

At the Li family home, Li's parents stayed by Li Meng's side, but Li Meng remained unconscious.

The village's barefoot doctor examined her and said there was nothing seriously wrong, just that she was so angry that she had a heart attack.

The doctor was invited by Li's father, and he also learned that the important figure in the cowshed had been personally picked up by the provincial governor.

After Dr. Feng left, Li's father couldn't help but complain about Li's mother.

“I knew there was a reason why my daughter was bringing food to the cowshed, but you wouldn’t listen. Now look what’s happened, my daughter has fainted due to malnutrition, and we don’t know when she’ll wake up.”

Li's mother felt guilty and somewhat regretful, but it wasn't entirely her fault!

"When I locked up the grain, you tacitly agreed. Now that something has gone wrong, how come it's my fault?"

After saying that, he gave Li Meng a reproachful look.

"That child is something else; why can't he just say things clearly?"

Mr. Li glared at her again: "Don't talk nonsense. Don't spout nonsense about your daughter."

Li's mother would never make things up.

She had long discovered that her daughter had a certain peculiar quality, and that her family always benefited from listening to her daughter.

The eldest and second eldest sons' jobs, the house, the game in the mountains—if the daughter says there's game in the mountain traps, there really is.

Mr. Li never went empty-handed.

They say there is ginseng there, and it really is.

Knowing her daughter's extraordinary abilities, she didn't stop her from asking Li Bin to help deal with Fei Huainan.

But that time, the Li family not only didn't gain any advantage, but instead suffered a great misfortune.

From then on, things started to go wrong for the Li family.

Only then did Li's mother begin to doubt her daughter's words, never expecting that this would almost cause trouble.

Fortunately, the daughter was clever and saved a lot of food for the important people in the cowshed.

"Now, do we count as having latched onto a big shot? I heard they're national-level researchers, incredibly capable."

"What do you think? If we get them to ask us to release the second son, would that work?"

Mr. Li puffed on his pipe for a while before finally speaking: "When Meng'er wakes up, we'll ask her what to do!"

Li's parents only knew that their daughter was bringing food to the cowshed, but they didn't know who she was bringing it to.

However, based on her past behavior, it would definitely be given to the two important figures who were picked up in the car.

If their family becomes different, with such a powerful figure as their backer, wouldn't they be able to do whatever they want in the village?

Fei Huainan dared to harm their son. Once Meng'er wakes up, she will write letters to those two important figures and make Fei Huainan pay the price.
