Chapter 220 Trying to quibble
The insider at the door snorted, "If you were really in the bathroom, your roommate wouldn't have to go so far to find you!"
Her words immediately refuted Li Meifen's claim that she was in the toilet.
"Which roommate said that? Do you believe her? Everyone knows that the relationship between us in the dormitory is not good. Have you ever considered that the roommate who told you that was spreading rumors about me?"
Li Meifen said calmly, "And you keep saying that I reported the village chief. Although I don't know what the report was about, shouldn't you be concerned about the content of the report? Since you think Village Chief Su did a good job, you should investigate the content of the report!"
After Li Meifen finished speaking, the villagers standing at the gate fell into collective silence for a moment.
They all seem to be thinking.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Meifen quickly turned her head and her eyes fell on Zhong Qingqing who was standing aside watching the show.
"Is this what you told them?" Li Meifen spoke softly, but she did not deliberately avoid the people outside the door.
Zhong Qingqing smiled slightly, without any anger on her face: "Were you in the dormitory last night? Don't you know it yourself?" Without directly answering Li Meifen's question, Zhong Qingqing just smiled strangely.
"That's what I said."
Li Meifen was about to ask something further when she heard another young woman suddenly approaching Zhong Qingqing.
The presence of the other two people in the dormitory has never been strong. They have always protected Li Meifen's status and bullied Zhong Qingqing in the dormitory.
Ever since Li Meifen came back from Baihua Village, these two people chose to distance themselves from both her and Zhong Qingqing.
"You were not sleeping in the dormitory so late at night, and there was no sign of you anywhere else around. Who knows what you were doing?" The young woman's voice was gentle, but no one could refute what she said. After all, as Li Meifen's roommate, she had absolute facts to support her words.
This also directly confirmed Li Meifen's statement that she was not in the dormitory last night.
"You didn't find me at all. I was just going to the toilet outside!" Li Meifen was still trying to argue.
"There is only one toilet in the whole yard. I have looked for it. I have also looked for toilets in other yards, as long as they are accessible, but I couldn't find you. Could it be that you are using an open-air toilet?"
Although the young woman's voice sounded gentle, it was just a sound.
It seemed as if all the resentment towards Li Meifen that had been pent up for several years burst out at this moment.
"Even if you didn't find the place where I went to the toilet last night, you can't just say that I went to the town to report the village chief! You saw it anyway, and I was about to leave, why did you bother to do so? And the village chief didn't do anything bad, why should I report him?"
Li Meifen thought that once she said this, the other villagers would think about it and ignore the matter. However, as soon as she finished speaking, the villagers outside rushed to answer -
"Who else could it be but you? You were inexplicably absent from the dormitory last night, and early this morning, someone from the town came to inspect and went to the village chief's house! They also said that they received an anonymous letter of complaint!"
When Li Meifen heard this, she was instantly excited——
"Then those inspectors went to the village chief's house. Did they find anything?"
If what Jiang Panhua said was true, and Su Wanwan secretly kept two Ganoderma lucidum, such a big thing should have been known to everyone in the village. Why did the expressions of these villagers seem as if they were completely unaware of it?
"What's the matter? Do you still hope to find out some results? Do you still hope that our village chief will be slandered to death by you?" The villagers at the door were all angry.
"No, no, I only found out about this after you told me about it. Aren't you allowed to ask about it?"
After Li Meifen finished speaking, several young people wearing armbands suddenly came to the gate. When they saw that it seemed to be someone sent by Secretary Wang, the villagers at the gate shouted even louder.
"I think you may have to go and explain this to the village chief yourself! Just see if he can forgive you!"
After one of them finished speaking, the villagers at the door burst into laughter. The young man wearing an armband was obviously looking for Li Meifen. He quickly pulled Li Meifen's sleeve and led her out.
"What are you doing? Where are you taking me?"
A rare trace of fear flashed across Li Meifen's face.
Could it be that she was really discovered? !
"Secretary Wang asked you to come over and talk."
Hearing the voices of the young men with armbands, the surrounding villagers followed them and walked forward for dozens of meters, making a noise as they walked.
"This is called evil will be punished. You have been sent down to Shuitian Village for a few years. Haven't you been treated well enough by the village? We also gave you the quota for the exchange last time, but you ended up bringing shame to Shuitian Village in Baihua Village. The village chief and his men didn't pursue the matter, but you are so ungrateful and repay kindness with enmity! Bah!"
Li Meifen walked to Secretary Wang's office amid the villagers' constant scolding and ridicule. She looked up and saw Secretary Wang sitting opposite her and Village Chief Su Yang next to her.
"Village chief, Secretary Wang." Not knowing how they were going to ask her, Li Meifen lowered her head, pretending to be ignorant, and called out timidly.
"Tell me, why did you go to the town to report the village chief?" Party Secretary Wang, who was standing opposite, spoke in a faint voice. Although there was no obvious questioning tone, compared with his usual kindness, there was always a strong sense of seriousness in his voice.
"I...I didn't." Li Meifen was worried.
The villagers at the dormitory door said that she went to the town to report the village chief. She could still make a few excuses. After all, those people were just ordinary villagers. No matter how much they shouted, they had no actual evidence. But... why did Secretary Wang ask this?
"Still trying to quibble." Secretary Wang's face darkened again. "Do you really think that after submitting an anonymous report, no one will be able to find out that it was you?"
Secretary Wang's words made Li Meifen's heart tremble again, and ominous premonitions surged into her mind one after another.
"The few people who came to the village for inspection this morning are old acquaintances of mine. You don't think that there is no one on duty at night in the town's commune, do you?" Secretary Wang's next words broke the last bit of tense nerve in Li Meifen's mind.
really……
"I'm sorry, village chief, I'm sorry, Secretary Wang, I didn't mean it, and I... I didn't report it..."
She was about to say that she had no intention of reporting the village chief, but only wanted to report that Su Wanwan had done some illegal business in private. However, before she finished her words, the village chief Su Yang, who was sitting next to her, had already turned cold.
"You really didn't mean it. Considering your emotions when you were sent down and your parents' wishes, you were not very happy when you were arranged to be the first batch to return to the city. I didn't expect you to get angry and make such a big fuss."
