Chapter 169: Dig a Pit First
Brigade Leader Wu knew Song Chu’s plan, and also knew that it would take about two days to implement.
So the day Gu Yue and the others left, he spent the entire morning accompanying Song Chu and Song Ping with that strong man.
This also prevented the Old Brigade Leader’s son and the others from making a move, cursing Brigade Leader Wu in their hearts.
“Damn it, when my dad becomes Brigade Leader again, I’ll make that Wu carry manure every day.” The Old Brigade Leader’s son spat.
“Exactly, that Wu is always trying to ruin our good deeds.”
“This time, taking advantage of Uncle’s back injury, that old geezer started strutting around the village, becoming the temporary Brigade Leader. He clearly doesn’t have any respect for Uncle.”
The other few people not only complained, but also kept instigating.
The Old Brigade Leader’s son gave a sinister cold snort: “When my dad recovers, his entire family won’t have any good days.”
“Boss, that female comrade is from the provincial capital. If we really do something, will there be trouble?” A timid person couldn’t help but ask.
The Old Brigade Leader’s son glanced at him, “What are you afraid of? These city folk value their chastity the most. After becoming mine, who else could she marry besides me?”
“Like those female educated youths we played with before, did they dare to utter a word?”
In his mind, these girls from the city were the easiest to deal with. As long as he used both hard and soft tactics, he wasn’t afraid they would resist.
After they became his, with his dad’s maneuvering, he could find a way to keep them from leaving.
In this village, his family was the law.
Then, even if Song Chu’s family came looking, they could turn things around and say that she shamelessly seduced him. He, being magnanimous, would take her back as his wife.
Otherwise, they would drag her to a struggle session and call her a whore.
Then extort some money from her family. It would be killing two birds with one stone.
If Song Chu was sensible, he wouldn’t mind coaxing her, and then see if he could get her to find a way to get him into the city as well.
He would take over her so-called factory director position. Then he would have power, money, and a beautiful woman.
In his eyes, Song Chu must have gotten the factory director position through family connections. If he took over, he could certainly do it well.
Thinking this, he became excited.
However, after Brigade Leader Wu and the other man left, Song Chu didn’t leave the pig farm, making them wait in frustration.
Song Chu and Song Ping stayed at the pig farm all day, even having lunch and dinner there.
While Gu Yue’s Father and the others had to work, Song Chu played with Gu Jin and provided him with some psychological counseling.
It had been agreed that Gu Jin would leave with them, but the little guy was reluctant to leave his grandfather and father, so they still had to work on persuading him.
He had been abused by his mother and subjected to a lot of emotional abuse and bullying, so Song Chu didn’t want to forcibly take him away and leave him with any psychological trauma.
So she kept chatting with him, gradually lowering his guard, and then told him that if he stayed, it would be inconvenient for his father and grandfather to work while taking care of him.
It would be best for him to leave and come back to visit his father and grandfather when he was older.
Of course, these words were spoken tactfully, and Song Chu patiently told him many stories.
By dinner time, the little guy was clearly more fond of and dependent on Song Chu.
Gu Yue’s Father and Older Brother were relieved and touched, but also felt a pang of sadness in their hearts. They were also very reluctant to part with the little guy.
But for the little guy’s sake, separation was necessary.
After dinner, before it got dark, Song Chu and Song Ping left the pig farm and returned to the widow’s house where they were staying.
At this time, there was a person still watching at the entrance of the pig farm. Seeing Song Chu and Song Ping appear, he immediately ran to call others.
◈◈◈
So, as Song Chu and Song Ping were nearing the widow’s house, the Old Brigade Leader’s son and several others emerged from an alley.
Pretending to run into them by chance, he looked at Song Chu and smiled: “Isn’t this Comrade Song?”
Song Chu, arm in arm with Song Ping, looked at them warily, “Who are you? I don’t know you.”
“Haha, we didn’t know each other before, but we do now.” The Old Brigade Leader’s son laughed.
Then he took a few steps forward, approaching Song Chu.
Although Song Ping knew Song Chu’s plan, she was still afraid that these people would touch Song Chu, so she couldn’t help but step forward to shield her.
“We’re going back now, please excuse us.” She said calmly.
Although Song Ping wasn’t as beautiful as Song Chu, she was still above average in looks, especially since she became a secretary and no longer had to work in the fields. Her skin and temperament had improved a lot.
In this remote village, she was definitely more attractive than the village flower.
The others all knew that their boss had his eyes on Song Chu. Although they were unhappy about it, they didn’t dare to compete, after all, their families all followed the Old Brigade Leader.
So, they set their sights on Song Ping.
This woman was more beautiful than the few female educated youths in the village, and she had a more mature charm. It definitely wouldn’t be a loss to play with her.
“Why are you so nervous? Let your brothers take good care of you before you go.” One of them said, reaching out with a wandering hand.
Song Chu pulled Song Ping, and they both stepped back, dodging the man’s hand.
Song Chu’s face showed a hint of anger, mixed with nervousness and fear, as she shouted, seemingly putting on a brave face: “What, what do you want? Go away.”
“Haha, little lass, what do you think we want?” Seeing her angry expression, the Old Brigade Leader’s son found her even more alluring. His heart itched unbearably, and he reached out to grab Song Chu.
At this moment, the door of the courtyard next door opened.
The elderly man whose house Gu Yue had previously stayed in came out, looking at the Old Brigade Leader’s son and the others with a stern expression and scolded, “What are you all doing here?”
This was actually part of Song Chu’s plan. She had noticed them long ago and deliberately walked to the door of this house, waiting for them to approach.
This elderly man’s two sons were both soldiers, and not ordinary soldiers at that. In addition, he himself had a certain prestige in the village, and the Old Brigade Leader and the others didn’t dare to offend him easily.
The elderly man was usually upright and just. Encountering such a situation at his doorstep, he naturally wouldn’t ignore it.
This would also make him more disgusted with the Old Brigade Leader’s son and the others, making it easier for Brigade Leader Wu to persuade them to work together to bring down the Old Brigade Leader.
Moreover, now wasn’t the time to strike. Song Chu wanted to retreat in order to advance, letting them fall into a pit first.
Seeing the elderly man appear, the Old Brigade Leader’s son and the others cursed their bad luck in their hearts.
During the day, there was Brigade Leader Wu, and now this troublesome old man had appeared. Annoying.
“Uncle Li, we’re just saying hello to the new comrades.” The Old Brigade Leader’s son forced a smile.
A few years ago, he had harassed a female educated youth and was caught by this old man. Not only did the old man slap him a few times, but he also escorted him home and told his father to discipline him properly.
Although he hated the old man now, he still felt a bit apprehensive when facing him.
Uncle Li snorted coldly: “These two female comrades are here from the provincial capital for inspection. Don’t you dare have any bad ideas.”
