Li Yong fidgeted with his hair, unable to vent the frustration in his heart.
Why did it have to be this year? Why did they have to be the ones implicated!
At this rate, when would he be able to save 300,000 Yuan? When would he be able to marry Qin Xiaomin?
This was his only chance to prove himself. If he failed this time… Qin Xiaomin’s parents couldn’t see any hope. They definitely wouldn’t let Qin Xiaomin continue to wait for him.
But…
The silent atmosphere continued until noon.
It was almost lunchtime. Although everyone couldn’t eat anymore, people must eat to live.
Liu Guihua got up and walked to the kitchen. “I’ll go and cook!”
Now, they only ate tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplant, and chili for meals…
They ate whatever was in the field.
The more they eat, the more they save.
Just as Liu Guihua stood up, Li Yong suddenly said, “No, these vegetables cannot be sold to Big Sister!”
After he said that, everyone’s eyes were focused on Li Yong.
Li Yong gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and repeated, “These vegetables can not be sold to Big Sister!”
Liu Guihua thought that her son believed that the price was too low, she tried to persuade him, “Xiao Yong, we can’t just leave it there and let it rot. We’ll take it as it comes. Fortunately, we didn’t invest too much in the future, so the loss isn’t too big. Don’t be too anxious. Your Father and I will not ignore the matter of Xiaomin. Even your Big Brother will not watch you and Xiaomin break up like this!”
Li Lei also expressed his stance, “Your Sister-in-law and I don’t have any place to spend money right now. We’ll definitely put you first.”
Li Yong took a deep breath and loosened his fist. “In your hearts, am I that kind of person?”
Under everyone’s puzzled gazes, Li Yong then explained, “Just like what you said, our vegetables will rot if we leave them there. Big Sister did this for two reasons. First, she wanted to help us recover some of our losses, and second, these vegetables wouldn’t be wasted. Big Sister is being kind, but if we agree, wouldn’t we transfer the losses to Big Sister?”
What he said was right, and Li Miao nodded in agreement. “Big Sister probably doesn’t have much money in her hands. I heard from Sister Shuqin that the 50,000 Yuan that they gave to Big Sister previously had been returned twice, and each time it was 10,000 Yuan! Adding the expenses of the three children, this 10,000 Yuan might be her last savings.”
“Didn’t Brother say that Big Sister has already taken care of some instant noodles and mineral water? Then these vegetables can be considered our goodwill and donated to the suffering compatriots in the disaster area. Compared to rotting in the ground, this is more meaningful.”
After saying that, Li Yong lowered his voice again. “As for Xiaomin… I will continue to work hard. I think Xiaomin will understand me too.”
Liu Guihua couldn’t be happy when she heard Li Yong’s words. She felt sorry for her youngest son. She felt sorry for him for being despised by others. She felt sorry for him for working so hard for so long in vain.
Li Lei looked at his younger brother, but his eyes were relieved. “I agree with Xiao Yong’s idea!”
Li Miao also raised his hand. “I agree too!”
Seeing this, Li Zhiming said, “Your Mother and I don’t have any objections.”
“My Father-in-law has already contacted the big car. I still have to go over in the afternoon to see what’s happening. I’ll sleep at my Father-in-law’s house tonight.”
Liu Guihua and Li Zhiming didn’t have any objections. Liu Guihua even advised, “Take advantage of your free time now. Go to your Father-in-law’s house more often and spend more time with Xiaoning!”
Li Lei didn’t mention the matter of Xiaoning resigning. He was afraid that Liu Guihua would ask Xiaoning to stay here after he told her.
He naturally understood that although his in-laws and his in-laws were doing well, it would be uncomfortable for either of them to go to the other’s house.
He nodded to show that he understood.
At three o’clock in the afternoon, Li Lei rode his bicycle to Meng Xiaoning’s home.
Meng Qingxin had gone out and hadn’t returned.
Only Meng Xiaohui and Liang Huimei were at home.
Li Lei was afraid of embarrassment, so he rode the tricycle to Meng Xiaoning’s factory.
Outside the factory, there was a circle of eaves, and he just stood there waiting.
After waiting an hour, Meng Xiaoning came out of the factory with a few female workers.
Meng Xiaoning held her stomach, and a female worker beside her had her. She was afraid that the road would slip in the rain and she would fall.
Seeing this, Li Lei quickly walked up to her.
When the female workers saw Li Lei, their faces were filled with envy.
“Xiaoning, your partner is tall and good-looking. He treats you well too. Your luck is too good.”
“Yeah, the child in Xiaoning’s stomach is guaranteed to be tall. It’s only been a few months. Look at her stomach.”

Meng Xiaoning listened to the praise from others and kept smiling.
She was indeed quite satisfied with Li Lei.
Li Lei came over, and a few female workers said goodbye to Meng Xiaoning.
“What are you talking about? Why are you smiling so much?” Li Lei carefully supported Meng Xiaoning and asked in a low voice.
“My colleagues are all praising you!” Meng Xiaoning said.
Li Lei couldn’t help but laugh. “Praising me for what? Oh, right, have you told your leader about your resignation? What’s the result?”
Meng Xiaoning stopped laughing. “I did. I told our leader early in the morning. What else could she say? I’m pregnant now, and I can’t do much work. In addition, the factory’s efficiency isn’t good, so she agreed to it. She’s currently going through the procedures. She’ll probably ask me to come back tomorrow and won’t need to come back the day after.”
Hearing Meng Xiaoning’s words, Li Lei heaved a sigh of relief.
He said softly, “I’ll be here for the next few days.”
When Meng Xiaoning heard that, she became excited. “That’s great. Come with me to the hospital for a checkup in two days. My colleague said that people in big cities need to go for a checkup every once in a while during pregnancy. That’s called a prenatal checkup. We don’t know anything. We’ve only been to the hospital once after being pregnant for so long.”
This was the first time Li Lei had heard of such a thing.
After all, the older generation didn’t even go to the hospital when they gave birth. They gave birth at home.
“Okay, I’ll go with you in two days!”
When the two of them returned home, Meng Qingxin had already returned. He had a smile on his face and looked quite happy.
When Meng Xiaoning saw his face was red, she frowned and asked, “Dad, did you go drinking?”
“I went to look for a few of my friends who had cars. They are all free so they can make this trip. Also, when they heard we are donating resources to the disaster area, they all said there is no charge.” Meng Qingxin was very happy to share this good news with Li Lei.
Then, he looked at Meng Xiaoning and smiled embarrassedly. “I was too happy, so I invited them to have a drink.”
Liang Huimei walked out and said snappily, “Then stay away from my daughter. Don’t let my grandson inhale the smokes.”
Meng Qingxin smiled sheepishly and could only speak to his son-in-law, “They are free at any time these few days. See if your Eldest Sister needs our help. We will be there anytime!”
Li Lei nodded. “I will send Xiaoning over to Eldest Sister’s place tomorrow morning after sending her off.. I will ask when they can send the goods!”
