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

The village chief's face was deeply lined with wrinkles, making him look as if he had aged more than ten years.

Wen Li expressionlessly shifted her gaze to Jiang Yue'er, who was still crying in Liu Guixiang's arms. "Comrade Jiang, for the next month, I hope you'll keep your word. Don't be a faithless person!"

Liu Guixiang's face was full of anger. "Wen Zhiqing, don't go too far!"

"Aunt Liu, is it not excessive for your daughter to slander me for undermining socialism? Is it not excessive for you to have the villagers search me?"

"You..." Liu Guixiang understood that Jiang Yue'er had started this whole thing, but how could she bear to let her daughter, whom she doted on to the core, have to shovel manure? She knew that only by begging Wen Li's forgiveness could she cancel the punishment. She took a deep breath and softened her tone.

"Wen, this is all Yue'er's fault. I didn't teach her well. But Yue'er is a girl. How about... we change the punishment?"

The village chief also looked at Wen Li with hope. He secretly hoped that Wen Li would change the punishment. Jiang Yue'er could completely avoid this punishment, but she had agreed to it in front of the whole village. If she didn't do it, everyone would talk behind her back. It would be best to change it!

Wen Li's answer was firm: "No!"

"You..." Liu Guixiang didn't expect Wen Li to be so disrespectful, and her words became less polite. "Wen, you are still an educated youth. Returning to the city involves many procedures. I advise you not to be so ruthless in your actions!"

Wen Li raised an eyebrow, not taking Liu Guixiang's threat to heart at all; after all, Liu Guixiang had powerful connections!

"Aunt Liu, are you threatening me?"

Liu Guixiang choked, not expecting Wen Li to speak so directly.

The village chief glared at Liu Guixiang, pulled her behind him, and looked somewhat uneasy.

"Wen Zhiqing, your Aunt Liu doesn't know how to talk, don't listen to her nonsense. Could you give Uncle Village Chief some face and change this punishment?"

Wen Li smiled mockingly. "What if I ask them to search your house?"

Upon hearing that they were going to search her house, Liu Guixiang immediately exploded, "Are you kidding me? How can you let anyone search my house?"

"I've already had my body searched, why can't your house be searched?"

Wen Li knew that the village chief's house couldn't withstand a search, which is why she made this condition. Originally, she didn't want to involve the village chief's family in her feud with Jiang Yue'er. After all, the original owner's tragic ending in her previous life was caused by Jiang Yue'er and those few sycophants like He Qiang. She didn't know if they knew, but there was indeed no direct connection between them.

Besides, the village chief's family didn't have a good ending either. They were all cannon fodder, so no one should make things difficult for each other. Now it seems that she was too kind. Since the village chief's family were beneficiaries, even if they met a tragic end, they were not innocent!

"I only searched you, you didn't lose anything, why are you being so petty? Are you deliberately trying to cause trouble for my family?"

"Shut up!" The village chief yelled at Liu Guixiang as she went further and further down the wrong path. He realized that Wen Li wouldn't back down, so he could only sigh inwardly.

"Wen, I apologize again for what happened today. Don't worry, I'll have Yue'er do the work tomorrow. I'll personally supervise her and make sure she doesn't slack off!"

After apologizing, the village chief left with his family, who all looked resentful.

In the end, only Wen Li and a few other educated youths remained.

"Xiao Li, why did you agree to let them search you?" Chen Yan looked at Wen Li with heartache, but she couldn't understand her actions.

Wen Li lowered her eyelashes, her dark eyes filled with coldness. When she looked up again, the coldness in her eyes was gone, and a relaxed smile appeared on her face.

"The innocent are innocent, I'm not afraid of their search. Besides, Jiang Yue'er is going to collect manure tomorrow, I think it's worth it!"

"Why are you so silly?" Chen Yan felt even more sorry for her.

Lu Zechuan didn't miss the fleeting glint of darkness in Wen Li's eyes. His heart stirred slightly, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly. It seems that this little girl is not so easy to mess with!

The group returned to the educated youth compound together. To thank them for standing up for her, Wen Li invited them to have dinner at her place.

Xu Yuan and Qi Jun skinned the rabbit, while Wen Li was in charge of cooking. She took out the vegetables she grew in her space and stir-fried two kinds of greens, and also cooked a large pot of white rice.

The five people finished all the food.

Xu Yuan ate three large bowls of rice in the end, pouring all the soup from the plate into the rice and eating it. By the end, he was a little embarrassed.

"Hehe! Wen Zhiqing, your cooking is amazing!"

Wen Li didn't mince words, "Haha, I think so too!"

After everyone finished eating, they cleaned up the dishes together. Wen Li carried the dried water back into the house to wash up, and Xu Yuan came over with a can of meat.

"Wen, I just bought some canned meat today, why don't you try it!"

Xu Yuan has a big appetite. Tonight, after eating Wen Li's cooking, he couldn't control himself and ate too much. He felt a little guilty, so after thinking it over, he brought over some canned meat.

Wen Li waved her hand, refusing to take his things. "You've helped me a lot today, and I wanted to thank you specially. You don't need to be so polite with me!"

"That's different. I wasn't much help anyway, so just take it. Otherwise, I won't be able to come here for a free meal next time!"

"How could you say you weren't helpful? If you hadn't held off those two Jiang brothers, I wouldn't have been able to defeat them all by myself!"

Xu Yuan thought to himself, "You're being too modest. He saw it clearly back then. Even if the three brothers of the Jiang family were combined, they wouldn't be a match for her!"

"You should accept it, otherwise I'll feel bad about it!"

Wen Li had no choice but to accept it.

next day

Under the village chief's supervision, Jiang Yue'er reluctantly went to the cowshed. Jiang Chen saw Jiang Yue'er's red and swollen eyes from crying and felt extremely distressed, which intensified his hatred for Wen Li.

When Jiang Yue'er saw Jiang Chen, her eyes filled with tears again.

There were still many people around, so Jiang Chen couldn't comfort her even if he wanted to. He could only whisper as he pretended to pass by her, "Don't be sad, I'll avenge you!"

Jiang Yue'er was initially somewhat disgusted by Jiang Chen's fall into the latrine yesterday, but when she saw his protection and comfort for her, her heart started beating for him again. Recalling the scene when she first saw him, the little bit of estrangement in her heart disappeared.

She was so confused. How could she dislike Chen-gege when he was so wonderful?

It's all Wen Li's fault! Yes, it's all Wen Li's fault. If it weren't for her, how could I have fallen into the cesspool? Brother Chen fell in while trying to save me. It's all Wen Li's fault!

Jiang Yue'er was so focused on her resentment towards Wen Li that she didn't notice the venomous figure behind her. The person's fingers dug into his palm, and his gaze toward Jiang Yue'er became increasingly sinister!
