From the various things Li Xueying had done, it could be seen that Li Xueying was a person who knew how to repay kindness and valued relationships. Such a person placed great importance on the relationships between people. However, this kind of sentimental and righteous person would often be hurt the most once they met an ungrateful villain.
What she had just said might not be a big deal to a strong-willed man.
But for Li Xueying, this was equivalent to smashing all of her beautiful memories of the past. Her last hope was gone.
It wasn't only Li Xueying. Fangzheng also attempted to put himself in her shoes. If Wang Yougui and company were to end up like this one day, how sad would he be? Thinking of that outcome, Fangzheng looked at Li Xueying pitifully.
"Alright, don't think about it. Your parents are here," said Fangzheng.
Li Xueying nodded and sighed before following Fangzheng into the house.
Li Xueying was arguing loudly with the villagers outside. Her parents naturally heard it as they opened the door and walked out. Upon seeing Li Xueying, the two elders' faces immediately lit up.
Li Xueying went forward and smiled. "Dad, Mom."
"Xueying, you're back." Li Xueying's mother held Li Xueying's hand with a benevolent look.
Li Xueying's father, Li Haisheng, did not seem to be good with words. He smiled in a silly manner and said, "I'll go buy a pound of meat. Heh heh …"
With that said, Li Haisheng left.
Fangzheng said, "I'll help."
Then, Fangzheng left with Li Haisheng.
Li Haisheng was indeed not talkative. He did not know what to say to Fangzheng. After a long while, he said, "What do you like to eat?"
Fangzheng smiled. "I'm fine with anything. Mr. Li, don't worry about me."
Li Haisheng nodded and did not say a word.
When they arrived at the store, before Li Haisheng entered, he heard someone shouting inside. "That b * tch, Li Xueying, is too outrageous! She actually wants my father to return the money! She's so rich, so why should my father return the money? She's too heartless. "
"That's right. My mom also said that she's too arrogant! Isn't she just an actress who sells her ass? Why is she pretending in front of us? Once she leaves the village, she's just a high-class chicken! "
Hearing this, Li Haisheng's face suddenly darkened. He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.
Fangzheng could sense the anger of the honest man beside him …
"That's right. Just because you have some money, you don't know who you are. I think we should write a joint letter to the newspaper or something to complain about Li Xueying, "someone suggested.
When Li Haisheng heard this, the anger on his face was immediately replaced by a trace of worry and fear. He took a deep breath, put away his anger, opened the door, and walked in.
Seeing that Li Haisheng had come, the people who had been discussing how to deal with Li Xueying immediately became silent. In the end, they also knew that gossiping behind someone's back was fine, but gossiping in front of them was out of the question.
Fangzheng scanned the room and immediately saw the balding Jiang Zaisheng. There was also a man who looked rather similar to Grandpa Chen. He was likely Grandpa Chen's son.
Li Haisheng bought two pounds of pork, but he was not in a hurry to leave. He just sat there and did not move.
With Li Haisheng sitting there, everyone naturally couldn't talk about Li Xueying anymore, so they had to change the topic.
"Haisheng, I heard that your Xueying is back. How many days are you planning to stay at home?" someone asked.
Li Haisheng said, "I don't know. I should be able to stay for a few days."
"Haisheng, I heard that your family is moving. Do you know about this?" someone asked.
Li Haisheng shook his head and said, "Whether I move or not is up to me. What others say doesn't matter. I haven't thought of moving. "
The other party was taken aback before he said with a smile, "That's what your daughter said."
Li Haisheng frowned and said, "I'm not moving!"
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief when they heard that. Clearly, no one wished for Li Haisheng's family to move. If they moved, the village would have one less egg laying hen. It would be a huge loss.
Since Li Haisheng wasn't leaving, Grandpa Chen's son came over and said, "Haisheng, your daughter is impressive. She just came back and she's already lecturing my father. Are you going to do something about this? "
Li Haisheng shot a glance at him and said, "Yes."
Grandpa Chen's son said, "It's good that you're going to do something about it. How can you speak to your elders like that? She keeps talking about money. It's too hurtful. Sigh, my father fell sick from anger when he returned. He still has to spend money when he returns. Haisheng, your family will be paying for this, right? "
Li Haisheng continued, "Yes."
"Haisheng, this is what you promised. I'll go to your house to get the money later," said Grandpa Chen's son.
When the others saw this, they went forward to complain to Li Haisheng, trying to get some money from him.
Fangzheng didn't say a word as he sat by the side. He controlled the effects of A Golden Millet Dream, reducing his presence to the minimum. Everyone subconsciously ignored his existence.
Li Haisheng sat there for half a day. Everyone's mouths were dry from all the talking. Without anything else to say, they dispersed.
Only then did Li Haisheng get up and walk back.
On the way, Li Haisheng said to Fangzheng, "Don't tell Xueying. She's tired enough outside. Now that she's back, don't think too much."
Fangzheng frowned and said, "Mr. Li, these people borrowed a total of more than 6,000 yuan from you. If you don't tell Madam Li, this money … "
Li Haisheng shook his head and said, "There's no need to tell her. I'll think of a way."
Fangzheng said, "Mr. Li, there's actually no need for you to lend them money."
Li Haisheng didn't say a word.
Fangzheng said, "Are you using money to shut their mouths? Are you not leaving because you want to keep an eye on them and prevent them from badmouthing Madam Li? "
Li Haisheng sighed and said, "Don't let your thoughts run wild. Let's go."
Looking at Li Haisheng's hunched back, Fangzheng let out a long sigh. Although they hadn't interacted much, Fangzheng could sense that this man was carrying a huge mountain on his back. Furthermore, the mountain was getting heavier. And what supported him forward …
"Dad, why did you take so long to buy meat? My mom was waiting anxiously. She asked me to look for you. " Li Xueying happened to walk out of the house. When she saw Li Haisheng, she grumbled with a hint of worry.
Upon seeing Li Xueying, Li Haisheng's face immediately lit up with a happy smile. His body subconsciously straightened up. It was as if all the pressure would disappear as long as he saw his precious daughter …
Li Xueying's house wasn't luxurious. In Li Xueying's own words, it was the same as when she left home. She had thought of renovating her home or rebuilding a villa, but her parents didn't allow it. For this reason, the two sides had argued several times, but in the end, Li Xueying compromised.
Lunch was very sumptuous. There were free-range chickens and ducks from the countryside, as well as some delicacies and fried vegetables from the farm.
