Chapter 180 The answer is about to come out
"This person has always been like this. Many people in the village dislike her. You'd better not get on her bad side. Avoid her if you can."
Looking at Lan Ying's quickly leaving back, Feng Xianghe sighed.
"Do you feel that... she seems to treat you differently from others." Ever since she walked back to the dormitory from the clinic with Feng Xianghe yesterday, Li Meifen didn't know why, but before going to bed at night, all she thought about was Feng Xianghe's face.
Before this, she had almost never thought of a person like this, but when she saw Lan Ying go out this morning, she suddenly felt as if something had been taken away from her. She quickly put on her clothes and followed her out.
It was as if he was afraid that Lan Ying would say something to Feng Xianghe.
"Is there any difference?" Feng Xianghe's face paused.
"She has always liked you, right?" Li Meifen smiled slightly.
"Well... you know, I really have no interest in someone like her. If she came to me and said it clearly, I would definitely explain it to her."
Feng Xianghe thought about it for a moment and his tone suddenly became serious.
"Well, then what kind of people are you interested in?" Li Meifen naturally took up the topic started by Feng Xianghe.
"This..." Feng Xianghe was stunned again.
"It's getting late. I'm going to go back and wash up. I have to go to the clinic for work later." Looking at Feng Xianghe's face which suddenly turned red, Li Meifen knew that the answer in his heart was about to come out, and she suddenly felt a little scared.
She was afraid that Feng Xianghe would say something that would make her feel at a loss as to how to respond.
"Ah... okay." The somewhat slow Feng Xianghe agreed immediately, watched Li Meifen walk back to the dormitory, closed the door, and then slowly left.
"Deputy Captain, how's the progress?" Not far away, two young men wearing armbands had been waiting under a tree for a long time. When they saw the deputy captain coming, they greeted him with a smile.
"How about what?"
"Why is the deputy captain still pretending to be stupid? Of course it's about the progress of your pursuit of the exchange girl named Li." One of them laughed, and the three of them walked side by side towards the rice fields of the production team.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I went there to complete the task assigned to me by the village chief."
Being teased by the young man next to him, Feng Xianghe looked a little stunned and didn't know how to respond for a moment.
"If you ask me, our deputy captain is usually too dull. If he was a little more flexible and learned from those young people who can talk, I think the young woman would have been with our captain."
Another young man wearing an armband said in a low voice.
"That's right. They will be going back to their village in a few days. If the deputy captain doesn't get to know them well now, they might forget about him."
"Okay, okay, it's working hours, stop chatting about these trivial things!" Feng Xianghe, who was walking half a body length in front of the two men, coughed twice and interrupted the two people behind him a little awkwardly.
When Li Meifen arrived at the clinic, one of the only two injured people there had passed away.
"Why are you the only injured person left?"
"He feels it's boring to lie here all day, so he might as well go back to the production team to work." Another injured person who was lying lazily on the hospital bed answered with squinted eyes.
Li Meifen put down her lunch box, turned around and sat down on a stool beside her.
Lan Ying, who had arrived earlier than her, had already sat back in her original chair.
"Why didn't you chat with Vice Captain Feng for a while longer?" Seeing Li Meifen sitting firmly on the stool, Lan Ying, who was flipping through a medical book on the chair, suddenly spoke in a sarcastic tone.
Although the sound was not loud, it was loud enough for everyone in the clinic to hear clearly.
"Oh, by the way, I almost forgot, you are in a hurry to come back and rewrite your apology, right?"
Li Meifen was about to answer Lan Ying, but was suddenly amused by her next words, "Yes, yes, you are right."
"Are you still going to sell the braised meat you made earlier in town?"
The clinic fell silent again. Xu Yan, who usually kept a low profile, suddenly walked to Lan Ying's side and deliberately kept a distance from the injured person on the bed to avoid being heard.
"This one……"
If it were up to Lan Ying, she would definitely want to take the remaining plates of braised pork to the town to sell them. After all, they would no longer be able to go into the mountains to hunt wild boars, and the remaining pork would be the only money they could earn.
Can……
Judging from Xu Yan's attitude, he obviously didn't intend to let them sell the last few pots of braised meat.
Even though it's autumn now and the temperature isn't very high, the braised meat can't be kept in the cellar of that house forever. If it's left there for another day or two, it might all go bad.
Before going to bed last night, Lan Ying had thought about how to deal with the braised meat, but after thinking about it, she realized that no matter which path she chose, it would be inappropriate because of the presence of Su Wanwan and others.
Even if she dreamed of selling the braised meat, she had no chance.
"I won't sell it, and I won't go up the mountain to hunt wild boars anymore." Li Meifen sank her heart and gritted her teeth.
"That's easy." Xu Yan nodded calmly, as if he had expected her answer. "The braised meat will just sit there anyway, so why not eat it all before it goes bad?"
Su Wanwan agreed: "According to my guess, you should have two or three pots of braised meat left, right?"
Lan Ying nodded, "Indeed, there are more than three pots, all of which have been processed and can be eaten at any time."
"Well, I'll go to the cafeteria to get some staple food at noon, and you can just go to that abandoned house to eat." Xu Yan made the final decision.
Even though Lan Ying felt extremely uncomfortable, she still had to endure the discomfort and put on a forced smile.
It was better for it to be eaten by everybody than to rot in the cellar of the cottage.
She could only comfort herself in this way.
"Let me go to the cafeteria with you." At noon, when everyone took their lunch boxes and prepared to go to the small room where Lan Ying and others worked, Su Wanwan suddenly caught up with Xu Yan.
The two walked side by side towards the cafeteria.
"I was thinking of asking them to sell all the braised meat, and then we can divide the remaining money. Your idea is better than mine." Su Wanwan said with a smile as they walked on the road.
"I just thought that you haven't eaten meat for a long time." Xu Yan suddenly replied.
The reason was so simple that Su Wanwan was a little unconvinced.
"But... I will be back in the village in two days. Even if I want to eat meat again, I can eat it when I return home. Their braised pork is much more expensive than raw pork. Isn't this a missed opportunity to make money?" Although Su Wanwan answered like this, she was smiling in her heart.
Xu Yan has always cared about her so much.
"What if the braised meat is expensive? Can it compare to the happiness you feel when you eat the meat?" In this regard, Xu Yan has always been very clear.
"Besides, we are not short of money."
Su Wanwan deeply agreed with the second half of Xu Yan's words.
"Then tell me, how much are your current assets?" She had never asked this question before.
