Chapter 30

lying, she just being vague. As for what others thought, she couldn't control that.As soon as the two of them testified, the crowd began to buzz with discussion.Especially Tang Zhenzhen was very popu..."The flowers smiled too. 'Yes, rewards! I remember there were some extra cloth tickets left over from the team before. Oh yes, and there are still some county food and oil tickets. Our village cadres rarely go to the city on business. They would expire if we just leave them.'

The old clerk nodded: "These rewards. I'll discuss them with the other comrades in the team!"

Ning Yuan, upon hearing this, was overjoyed and her eyes lit up: "Thank you, Lao Zhishu, thank you, Manhua Jie."

When she heard both Lao Zhi Shu and Man Hua had changed her nickname from "Ning Zhiqing" to "Xiao Ning," she knew they considered her a true village person and friend.

Although the villagers didn't need ration tickets for grain and oil, they did need them for cloth. Besides, each household only had enough food to barely get by.

Those county-issued ration tickets for grain and oil were, in essence, subsidies provided by the village to ensure her basic food supply.

She's really out of tickets right now!

Ning Yuan was overjoyed.

......

The news spread, and the whole village was in an uproar.

Ning Yuan also received twenty-two kilograms of grain tickets, twelve meters of cloth tickets, and five kilograms of oil tickets. She even had one kilogram of snack tickets, she was so happy!

With these things, it will be much more convenient to buy things in the city later.

She carefully put away the ticket and set off up the mountain.

Hua Zi found his brother Hei Zi and, with a group of strong young men from the village, followed Ning Yuan up the mountain. They carried down pig after pig.

Looking at the wild boars, all with fatal injuries, they gasped in astonishment but didn't delve deeper into why the dilapidated old trap was so lethal.

A group of people were busily skinning and gutting the wild boar. They washed it thoroughly before dividing it up, ensuring that every household in the village could enjoy some meat.

People usually don't have much to spare, and many villagers expressed their gratitude to Ning Yuan.

A bunch of young educated youths at the point also received a few kilograms each. Many people looked at Ning Yuan and were expressionless.

After all, they just drove people out of the Young Pioneers team and now they're dividing up other people's meat.

But Bu Ningyuan didn't mind anyway, she wasn't planning on continuing to associate with those educated youths.

Looking at Ning Yuan and the villagers chatting and laughing together, Huang Xuehong's dark face was full of displeasure: "She's just lucky! What's there to be smug about!"

Tang Zhenzhen snorted coldly, "Yes, Ning Yuan was so lucky to get together with that bad guy and find four wild boars. It's a pity they weren't trampled or bitten to death by the wild boars."

Huang Xuehong's eyes turned red as she said, "And it's all a collective effort. The village team even wants to reward her with grain tickets, cloth tickets, and oil tickets!"

Tang Zhenzhen listened, feeling a surge of anger. She turned her head and suddenly saw a thin woman with withered flesh on the side.

She became determined, suddenly let out a cold laugh, and turned to go up to the gaunt woman who had just received some meat. “Aunt Wang San,” she said, “I have something to tell you.”

Aunt Wang San listened as she whispered, her thin face fell, and she slapped her thigh: "You're right!"

Immediately afterwards, she hurried over to Manhua who was beside the table recording the details of the villagers receiving their meat, grabbed her arm, and shouted—

"I heard that you guys are giving her a lot of food stamps, even though she doesn't need them, and that you're also giving her the county ration tickets and oil vouchers from your unit"

Manhua looked at Wang San's aunt, her brows furrowed: "This is a reward for Ning Zhiqing. The whole team agreed to it. Without Xiao Ning, could you have eaten wild boar meat today"

"Wang San's aunt stuck her hips out and sneered sarcastically: 'What do you mean they can't eat meat without her I've heard all about it. This wild boar fell into the trap itself, the traps on the mountain were mostly made by my father before, if you want to give something, give it to me!' "

Ning Yuan froze, listening at the edge. She had seen thick-skinned people before, but she had never seen anyone this brazen.

What, this actually became Wang San's aunt's credit!

Not only was she stunned, but everyone in the village who was lining up to receive meat was also dumbfounded. This is acceptable

Lao Zhi's brows furrowed: "Your father was indeed the village's elder hunter, but he died so many years ago, and those traps are old and broken..."

"No matter how old or broken they are, those traps were made by my father!" Aunt Wang San, who was known in the village for being a fiery woman, directly interrupted Lao Zhizhu's words.

She pointed right at Ning Yuan's nose, her tone leaving no room for argument: "If it wasn't my father's trap, you would have died in the mountains with no one to bury you. I saved your life! You should be thanking me, not demanding things from me. Now give me the ticket!"

Aunt Wang is a ruthless exploiter — if fruit trees from the neighboring yard grow even half a branch into her own, she claims a share of the fruit. If they refuse, she threatens to cut down their trees.

Ning Yuan scanned Tang Zhenzhen, who was gleefully watching the commotion, with a stoic expression. She knew it was her scheme.

She looked coldly at Wang San's aunt: "Fine, I can give it to you."

Wang San Yi's triangular eyes lit up immediately: "That's more like it..."

"But you also have to go up the mountain tonight and lure the other wild boars into the traps your father left. Then I'll give you the ticket." Ning Yuan didn't hesitate to interrupt her.

Wang San Yi immediately jumped up and said: "What nonsense! Are you crazy It's so dangerous, why would I do it!"

"You know the danger, right I and my husband took a risk with our lives to lure the wild boar into the trap, so you have to do it too." Ning Yuan sneered coldly.

As soon as she spoke, the other villagers who disliked her all chimed in.

"That's right, that trap has been there for years and it hasn't even caught a wild boar!"

"Someone risked their life to lure wild boars into a trap and then killed them. You, Wang Sanyi, should do the same, only then can you offset their merit!"

"That's it!"

Wang San Yi choked, she suddenly didn't know how to retort.

She sat down abruptly on the ground, slapping her thighs and wailing: "I can't argue with you! Peasants can be bullied just because they have culture!"

"Anyway, I don't care, the wild boar died in my father's trap, the reward is mine. You don't take out your ticket, you won't leave today!!"

Ning Yuan turned around in disgust and was about to leave.

But when Wang San's aunt saw this, she suddenly rushed over and hugged her legs, shouting, "Give me your ticket, don't even think about leaving!"

She heard there were dozens of kilograms of grain tickets, and even rare cloth tickets, she couldn't let Ning Yuan get away with them!

Ning Yuan's face was gloomy and she looked at Wang San Yi, who was clinging to her legs and even trying to pull down her pants, with disgust.

She couldn't help but want to kick it.e clenched his fists, suppressing his excitement, his eyes reddening: "It's all over now. Order will be restored throughout society. I'm here to take you back to the capital city. We both know what yo...
