The Delicate Darling with Her Rough Man

Everyone: ”...”

Asking for help with homework?

Li Dashan?

Back in their school days, that kid had been incredibly cunning. He never wanted to do his own homework, so he’d find some young girls to do it for him.

And because of Li Dashan’s rebellious attitude back then, he was quite popular with the young girls.

So the girls practically fought over who got to do his homework.

Everyone was dead jealous back then.

However, there was a downside to this.

The person doing his homework changed so often that when the teacher checked, they discovered the handwriting in Li Dashan’s assignments was different every day. In just half a month, the handwriting never repeated itself once.

The teacher figured out what was going on right then and there.

He immediately called Li Dashan to his office and gave him a harsh scolding.

Even so, Li Dashan never changed his ways.

He was never the type to enjoy studying, not even as a child. ’And now, at his age, he has questions for a teacher?’

That other team captain couldn’t help but purse his lips.

’If you don’t want to say, then don’t. There’s no need to make up such a lie!’

As everyone was chatting idly, the conference room door was pushed open. Several county and commune leaders walked in, with the county magistrate in the very center.

Everyone immediately fell silent and sat up properly.

The county magistrate walked in, his eyes sweeping over the crowd. When his gaze landed on Leng Yuan, he paused for a moment before continuing forward.

Everyone: ”...”

The people present were all sharp observers.

They had all clearly seen the county magistrate pause to glance at Leng Yuan.

’Why would the county magistrate pay attention to an ordinary villager from the Qingshan Team?’

’Who exactly is this Leng Yuan?’

’Li Dashan was so attentive just now. Could it be that he knows some inside information?’

A thousand thoughts raced through everyone’s minds as their appraising gazes fell one after another on Leng Yuan’s face.

The county magistrate and the other leaders took their seats at the front and began to speak, snapping everyone back to their senses.

The main purpose of this meeting was to announce the results of the Advanced Village selection. Since it was the result of a vote by the leadership committee, everyone already had a good idea of the outcome.

However, when the county magistrate spoke of the recent rain disaster and the grain losses suffered by many villages, many people’s hearts still rose and fell with his words.

Finally, he mentioned how the Qingshan Team had not only preserved their own grain but also helped several surrounding villages save as much of their harvest as possible, which was what allowed the county to have surplus grain to allocate to the disaster-stricken areas.

As if by unspoken agreement, everyone raised their hands and began to applaud.

The villages that had indeed received help from the Qingshan Team were even more generous with their applause.

This was the first time the few members of the Qingshan Team had been in such a spotlight, and they were all a little overwhelmed with excitement.

Finally, Chen Beiguo went up to give a speech on behalf of the Qingshan Team.

Chen Beiguo had prepared a speech. He walked to the front and began by formally thanking the nation and the leadership, and finally, the people who had helped them.

His face was flushed red, and he felt a thrill of excitement as everyone watched him.

He had only recited two lines of his speech before he completely forgot the rest.

In the end, he decided to just play to his strengths and speak from the heart.

”This heavy rain was something we didn’t expect. The fact that we were able to rush the harvest into the warehouses is thanks to every single one of our fellow villagers. Although the ’Advanced Village’ title has been awarded to our village, it’s inextricably linked to the efforts of every person in the Qingshan Team.”

”I’m not accepting this award for myself; I’m accepting it for the people of our Qingshan Team.”

Li Dashan looked at his old rival and offered thunderous applause.

’I have to admit, my old friend and rival is pretty eloquent,’ he thought. ’I should learn a thing or two from him, so I can say something similar next year when I win back the ’Advanced Village’ title.’

When Chen Beiguo finished his speech, the county magistrate led the applause, and everyone clapped for the Qingshan Team.

Leng Yuan knew that Chen Beiguo had always wanted the people of the Qingshan Team to live better lives. ’This is just the beginning,’ he thought. ’Things will only get better from here on out.’
