1970s: Transmigrated into a cannon fodder female supporting character in a lucky koi novel!

"It's so delicious, Little Pear, I want to eat it again tomorrow!" Chen Yan wiped the grease off her mouth and clutched her full stomach.

"We're out of loaches at home. If you want some, have them go catch some more tonight!"

Su Hao let out a burp, his face still savoring the delicious food he had just eaten. "Okay, we'll go catch some later!"

"This thing wastes way too much fuel!"

The group, clutching their bellies, chatted about everything under the sun. When they returned from catching loaches that evening, Lu Zechuan told Wen Li that the same people had come again.

Furthermore, He Qiang seems to be sick and is not here tonight; there are only two people guarding the cowshed.

"This can't go on. If those people find out anything, the whole village will be in danger!"

"Yes, they won't be coming tomorrow!"

"You have a solution?" Wen Li sat up excitedly.

"Do you remember the person I rescued when we were sheltering from the rain at the village entrance last time?"

Wen Li immediately remembered him. She had almost forgotten about him in so long. He was the deputy director of the commune's revolutionary committee. As long as he spoke, these people would not come.

"Uh-huh!"

"He's the deputy director of the Revolutionary Committee. I'll go to the commune tomorrow, explain the situation to him, and those people will naturally stop!"

Wen Li pondered for a while, and finally shook her head.

"Forget it, I saw Grandpa Hou from afar today, and he seems to be doing quite well. We should use our favors wisely; troubling him with such a trivial matter would be a waste of his talents!"

Lu Zechuan had only helped out casually, and the fact that the other person was willing to give him face and remember his kindness was a testament to that person's gratitude.

The more you use favors, the less you have. If you can avoid using them, Wen Li thinks it's better not to. Bothering people with such trivial matters might only lead to annoyance if you need their help in an emergency in the future.

Besides, those people can't stay here forever. They haven't seen anyone these past two days, so they might leave on their own after tomorrow.

"I'll observe for two more days. If they still haven't given up, I'll go find someone else!"

"Alright!"

Wen Li originally thought she would have to wait two more days, but the next morning, He Qiang was taken away by the Revolutionary Committee.

No one knew what had happened. Hu Xiaocao fainted from fright, and the village was in an uproar.

The He family went to the brigade leader and asked him to inquire at the Revolutionary Committee. The brigade leader didn't want to get involved; these kinds of things were handled by the village chief, unless the village chief was not around.

He went to the village chief's house, where the village chief had already broken ties with the He family. In the end, it was only after the brigade leader persuaded him again and again that the village chief reluctantly went to the commune.

Upon inquiring, well, wow!

It turned out that He Qiang had tricked the comrades of the Revolutionary Committee with false information, causing the two red armband-wearing members to be fed mosquitoes for two days.

I originally wanted to make some sales, but after two nights of waiting, I not only caught nothing, but also got bitten all over by mosquitoes.

Adding to their anger that He Qiang hadn't shown up last night, the two were determined to get back at He Qiang, the culprit.

So they arrested him and imprisoned him in the Revolutionary Committee.

They originally wanted to teach He Qiang a lesson, but He Qiang had a persistent high fever and was defecating everywhere, filling the entire Revolutionary Committee with a foul odor. The two people who arrested He Qiang were also criticized.

Not only did they fail to teach He Qiang a lesson, but they also had to clean up the mess he left behind.

Just then, the village chief arrived, and those people simply threw the half-dead He Qiang to the village chief.

When the village chief saw He Qiang with his pockets full of poop, he felt nauseous from the smell and told Old Li to quickly take the man back to the village in an oxcart and hand him over to Hu Xiaocao.

When everyone saw that He Qiang was covered in yellow substances and looked half-dead, they all assumed that He Qiang had suffered a great deal at the Revolutionary Committee.

"He's only been inside for a few hours, and Qiangzi is already like this!"

"How did this happen? Why is your whole body covered in that stuff?"

The crowd sighed and dared not speak, showing even greater awe for the Revolutionary Committee. Some children even burst into tears upon hearing the words "Revolutionary Committee."

Hu Xiaocao took the man back and cleaned him up before calling Old Man Wu to take He Qiang's pulse.

Upon taking He Qiang's pulse, Old Wu's face turned ashen. What strange patients hadn't he seen in previous years? But He Qiang's condition...

He was too embarrassed to say it out loud.

Finally, he prescribed antipyretics and carefully explained the precautions before leaving the He family home with his medicine box.

When the villagers saw Old Wu come out, they rushed forward to ask He Qiang how he was doing.

Old Wu's face looked even worse than if he were constipated. In the end, he just shook his head and left the He family.

Judging from Old Wu's appearance, everyone felt that He Qiang was suffering terribly in the Revolutionary Committee!

Rumors immediately spread in the village that He Qiang was about to die.

Old Wu: ...

When did he say He Qiang was dying?

That's how rumors spread!

Upon hearing the news, Zou Dazhuang ran to the He family crying and personally took care of He Qiang, even though he always ended up making things worse.

"This young man from the Zou family is quite loyal and righteous; he's so good to his brother-in-law!"

"Absolutely! Xiaoli is so lucky!"

He Li, who was beaten so badly she couldn't get out of bed: ? ? !

Do you want this good fortune?

Wen Li silently watched the show, only she understood what Old Wu's constipated expression meant, which conveyed a sense that she was the only one sober in a world of drunks.

"Wen, educated youth, is He Qiang really dead?"

As someone in the know, Er Laizi felt a pang of guilt. If He Qiang died, he would be considered an accomplice. Although he wasn't a good person, he couldn't bear the burden of a life.

"Don't worry, he's tough as nails, he won't die! If you're really worried, have Zou Dazhuang take him to the county hospital to get checked out!"

Medical care isn't very advanced these days. Given He Qiang's condition, it would be best for him to go to the hospital for a couple of days of IV fluids; that should help him recover faster.

She didn't want He Qiang to die so easily; death was a relief, while living was suffering!

"Okay, I'll go tell him right now!"

Now everyone's attention is on He Qiang. While everyone was taking a lunch break at home, Wen Li went to the cowshed.

Old Zhou saw Wen Li from afar, the two exchanged a glance, and then went to the back mountain.

"Grandpa Zhou, how are you all?"

Old Zhou nodded with a smile, "Don't worry about us, this little thing can't break me. We're just barely clinging to life!"

"What about Grandpa Hou?"

"He's doing great. He was just a little discouraged before, but now he's counting on you as his future support, so he can't afford to give up like this!"

Wen Li was completely relieved to know that they were safe and sound.

"That's good. Do you know anything about that family?"

"We don't know much yet, we only know they're a family. The couple seems nice, the two young men aren't very talkative, but the two girls were probably frightened and have been sick these past few days. Your Grandpa Wang couldn't bear to see them like that, so he got them some herbal medicine!"

"We still need to be careful. You can know a person's face but not their heart. Grandpa Wang means well, but what if..."

"Sigh! We can't persuade him. He's always talking about the benevolence of a doctor, and we can't bear to just watch two young girls get sick like this. We just want to have a clear conscience!"

Wen Li knew Old Man Wang's personality; he seemed easy to talk to, but when he got stubborn, he was even more stubborn than Old Man Hou.
