Chapter 99 Spouting Nonsense
Li Wangfu’s brows furrowed as soon as he heard her. After taking a few strong sips from the teapot, he slowly said, "An Hao, although this incident happened in the brigade, it’s your dad’s fault. The ox was plowing the field just fine, but he, for no reason, kept complaining it was too slow and whipped it hard! As a result, he spooked the ox! Who do you think is to blame for this?"
An Hao realized from the tone of his speech that he didn’t want to pay?
She had come over today without expecting Li Wangfu to pay up the entire sum, considering that the brigade didn’t have much money either.
But if her family weren’t in such hardship, she wouldn’t have blocked his door to ask for the money.
"Uncle Li, why does what you just said sound so offensive to the ears? Are you suggesting that my dad deserved it?" An Ping couldn’t hold back anymore and glared at Li Wangfu, ready to argue.
"I never said your dad deserved it! You’re the one putting words in my mouth," Li Wangfu glanced at An Ping, this little brat was trying to act tough in front of him.
He was in control of the money, and if he was displeased, he wouldn’t give a damn about you.
An Ping, full of youthful vigor and in the midst of an age where a single disagreement could lead to a fistfight, looked at Li Wangfu’s sharp-faced, monkey-cheeked appearance and felt like giving him a good thrashing.
He clenched his fist so tightly it cracked, and through gritted teeth, he cursed, "Everyone in the village says the leader of the first production brigade is no good, and I see they’re absolutely right! Tell Li Wangfu, if he doesn’t pay up, I swear I’ll knock his teeth out today!"
"An Ping!" An Hao grabbed him, furrowing her brows as she chastised, "What kind of language is that? No matter what, Uncle Li is still an elder! You’re being far too rude!"
