Chapter 462: 463: Di Yelei’s Dilemma



Thankfully, she had been more attentive when she came!

Otherwise, this man would have fattened everyone around him and starved himself!

Di Yelei naturally saw Liu Sisi’s small movements! His eyes lit up in front of him!

He smiled gratefully at Liu Sisi, quickly picked up his bowl and dug into the food, his chopsticks quietly reaching into the bottom of the bowl and pulling the egg into his mouth to eat. Only then did he sit up straight and chuckle heartily, continuing to eat the food in his bowl.

Da Niu and Er Niu, who were sitting next to them, naturally saw this scene too, but they didn’t say anything.

Liu Sisi didn’t say anything. When she passed by them, she quietly dropped four eggs in their shells next to them.

Da Niu’s eyes lit up!

He secretly hid the eggs, taking out two when no one was watching and handed them to Er Niu beside him.

All of Er Niu’s attention was on the bowl. When he was bumped by Da Niu, he looked around in a daze, still holding a baby bok choy leaf in his mouth.

“Bro, you called uh…”

He mumbled.

Da Niu glared at him and bumped him again, this thoughtless Er Niu.

Only then did Er Niu notice the eggs, hurriedly snatching them up and quickly stuffing them into his arms, even looking around like a thief, making Liu Sisi, who noticed this scene, constantly hold her forehead. Er Niu was really funny!

While everyone was eating, Liu Sisi finally noticed that the soil and stone materials for building the river embankment were all transported from the nearby two mountain tops. And the transportation tools were actually old-fashioned carrying baskets. The sight made Liu Sisi break out in a cold sweat.

After observing the surrounding situation, a thought suddenly crossed her mind. Perhaps she could…

“Sisi! Thank you. I didn’t mean to make you angry just now. I was scared when I saw you almost fall!”

Di Yelei came over bashfully, smiling flatteringly.

Liu Sisi rolled her eyes: “Are you done eating? Once you’re done, it’s good timing. This annoying thing should leave sooner rather than later.”

Having said that, she turned and left.

“Sisi, Sisi, you… at least save me some face.”

Di Yelei caught up and whispered in her ear.

Liu Sisi looked up, realizing the countless pairs of watching eyes around her, immediately shaking off his hand and twisting his waist in the process.

“Hmph! Who cares about you! You wish! Wait until you get home, and I’ll settle accounts with you carefully!”

At that, she ran laughing towards the carriage:

“Old Cheng! Let’s go, we’re going back!”

“Here it comes! Madam, please walk slowly, be careful of your feet!”

Old Cheng quickly followed, carrying the empty basket.

“Oh! Ouch…I’m definitely going to be bruised on my waist…”

Di Yelei rubbed his waist with a bitter smile, helplessly smiling at the surrounding eyes that were watching the drama.

In the laughing crowd surrounding the scene, someone started talking crudely.

“Deputy Leader Di, I never would have guessed! Your relationship with sister-in-law is actually so good! If sister-in-law’s little hand could touch my flesh, even if it dug out a piece of my flesh, it would be worth it!”

“Oh dear! How can such a beautiful flower like sister-in-law be inserted in a pile of cow dung? What a pity, a real pity!”

“Deputy Leader Di, listen, Xiaoliang is saying that you are cow dung… He said it!”

“I’ll beat you to death, you little rabbit! Stop running! Freeze—”

Di Yelei’s roar came from the river embankment, along with the laughter of everyone else and the two figures running at full speed.

The scene in front of her eyes relieved Liu Sisi a lot. She gently let go of the carriage curtain and instructed Old Cheng.

“Old Cheng, let’s go! Let’s go back!”

“Alright! Madam, please have a seat. Let’s go back.”

Old Cheng raised his horsewhip, and the carriage gradually went away.

It wasn’t until the carriage disappeared at the end of the line of sight that the chased Old Liang stopped, completely disregarding the dirt, sitting directly on the muddy ground.

“Alright! Ye Lei, your wife has gone far now. You don’t have to pretend anymore.”

Di Yelei also stopped, looked back, and suddenly, his strength seemed to drain from his body, so he slowly squatted down, panting heavily.

He wiped away the sweat, took a look at the surrounding environment, and couldn’t help but swear.

“The flood season is coming soon, and in the past few years, there’s only been a few slightly larger snowfalls. The floodwaters broke through here, inundating more than a dozen nearby villages. Last year’s heavy snow lasted so long, and the accumulated snow on the mountain top hasn’t melted yet. Once the flood season comes and the water level rises, if this place breaks again, I’m afraid we few who built this section of the project will be the first to become ghosts under the sacrificial knife!”

Xiaoliang and the other two runners also came over.

“But there are only so many hands, and the flood season is imminent. We’d better think about how to reinforce this section of the riverbank as soon as possible within the shortest time! It’s not just about the issue of our own heads. We all have elders and children. If there’s a breach this year, I’m afraid it won’t just be solving the problem of more than a dozen villages!”

Everyone nodded and sighed at this remark.

“Others look at us as government office runners with plenty of silver and power, how nice it is. Who can see that we are actually just punching bags for others and scapegoats for those above?”

“Alright! You can talk about this in our circle, but don’t take it outside. If it really reaches the ears of those with ulterior motives, you won’t be able to handle the consequences!”

“…Understood, Deputy Constable Di.”

While Di Yelei was laboring on the riverbank, Liu Sisi, who was sitting in the carriage and rushing home, was also frowning.

She lifted the carriage curtain and carefully examined the terrain of the two nearby mountains, secretly planning in her heart.

“Old Cheng! I just heard those people call something like Deputy Leader Di, what does that mean?”

Old Cheng, who was driving the carriage, looked back: “Madam, don’t you know? Old Master was promoted after the new year, and he’s now a Deputy Constable, so everyone calls him Deputy Leader Di.”

“So that’s it, and I never heard him mention it.”

“It’s the Old Master’s instructions not to say. Old Master said, the monthly salary is just an extra 100 silver coins, and telling it would make people laugh. He also said he would wait until he made more progress before telling you.”
