Yu Bing looked up and realized that Xiao Sheng wasn’t around. She asked Xiao Lin, “Xiao Lin, where’s your brother?”
Although they were in their own courtyard, Xiao Lin still covered his mouth with his hand and whispered, “My brother didn’t even eat before going into the mountain to set a trap for the animals.”
After Yu Bing chatted with them for half an hour, Xiao Sheng returned with sweat all over his face.
Xiao Lin hurriedly poured a bowl of water and handed it forward. “Brother, drink water!”
Xiao Sheng took it and finished it in one go. Only then did he see Yu Bing. “Why did you co?”
When Yu Bing heard this, she smiled and asked, “Can’t I co even if there’s no reason?”
Xiao Sheng smiled helplessly and said, “I didn’t an that. You usually don’t co if you have nothing to do.”
These words made Yu Bing blush. Every ti she ca to the Xiao family’s house, she seed to have a motive. Fortunately, with the cover of the night, Yu Bing subconsciously ignored the embarassnt. “Xiao Lin said that you haven’t eaten yet. Eat first and let’s talk while eating.”
The two of them entered the kitchen together. Xiao Sheng took off the bamboo lid that blocked the small insects, revealing the food inside. There was a large bowl of sweet potato rice, a plate of stir-fried bitter lon, and cold cucumber.
Yu Bing watched as Xiao Sheng ate a large mouthful before saying her purpose. “If the village wants to choose a new village chief, who do you want to choose?”
When Xiao Sheng heard Yu Bing’s question, he ate as he pondered over it. “I can roughly guess a few people who are most likely to sign up for the election, but I don’t want to choose any of them.”
When Xiao Sheng heard Yu Bing’s question, he ate and thought for a while. “I can roughly guess a few people who are most likely to sign up for the election, but I don’t want to choose any of them.”
When Xiao Sheng saw Yu Bing asking so eagerly, he swallowed his food and raised his eyebrows at Yu Bing. “You look so curious. Do you want to sign up?”
The most important things in Yu Bing’s life were to stay healthy and earn more money. At the sa ti, she would let the scumbag, slut, and the people who hard her suffer retribution. She wanted to make up for the good fortune she didn’t enjoy in her previous life.
Yu Bing looked back at Xiao Sheng and said calmly, “I don’t have that much ti. However, if you sign up, I can vote for you. I can also help you get Jiang Chun’s vote.”
To Xiao Sheng, earning money to treat his sister’s eyes was the most important thing. He didn’t have the ti or energy to care about the rest.
When Xiao Sheng heard this, he looked at the bitter gourd and picked up a piece with his chopsticks. He slowly said, “I don’t have that much ti either. I don’t even have enough ti to earn money. You don’t have to be so conflicted about your vote. It won’t play a key role.”
When Yu Bing heard this, she pursed her lips and rolled her eyes. “My vote might not make a big difference, but this vote can express my attitude! To , this is a very serious matter. Moreover, if we can choose a village chief who is competent, isn’t it better than finding a troublemaker like Sun Wang?”
After saying that, she sat beside Xiao Sheng and stuck her head out. She imitated Xiao Lin by covering her mouth with her hand as she said softly, “If we can choose a bold person who helps our village develop and thinks of the big picture, we might not have to be so secretive. Most of the cadres like to talk about policies now, but can re policies put bread on the table?”
The two of them were so close that Xiao Sheng could sll the fragrance of the jasmine soap on Yu Bing after she showered.
After Yu Bing finished speaking, she saw Xiao Sheng staring at the table in a daze. She stretched out her hand and waved it in front of Xiao Sheng’s eyes. “What are you thinking about? Did you hear ?”
Xiao Sheng ca back to his senses. His Adam’s apple bobbed as he said dryly, “I’m listening. Find a village chief who’s willing to do business.”
Yu Bing nodded in admiration. “The summary is spot on! Although our village isn’t so poor that people starve to death, the number of tis most villagers can eat at all year round can be counted with two hands. They only eat vegetables every day.”
Xiao Sheng recalled Yu Bing’s words and felt that she made sense. Everyone was too poor now, so sothing must be done. Because of public policy, many people couldn’t even raise a few more chickens to eat eggs.
If anyone found out that they had secretly sold things, they would definitely be reported.
However, if everyone was involved in these side hustles, they would be in the sa boat, just like when Yu Bing was called over to eat the bowl of rabbit at after she discovered him.
The best case scenario would be that the village chief would lead everyone to find a way to get rich. Then, everyone would be able to earn money openly.
Xiao Sheng suddenly thought of soone. “Actually, there’s soone who fits the requirents you ntioned, but he definitely won’t sign up for the election.”
Yu Bing hurriedly asked, “Who is it?”
Xiao Sheng looked at Yu Bing fixedly. “Uncle Jin, your disciple Wu Qing’s father.”
