Transmigrated as Cannon Fodder — I Rise to Female Lead Through Hard Work Chapter 58: Lying Through One’s Teeth

"Why are you back so late? Where did you go?" Ding Anguo was waiting at the intersection, and seeing the two return, he hurried forward, "Kaiying is at ho, the captain is here too."

"Who’s sick? You all..." Ding Anguo hadn’t finished speaking when a piece of cloth was stuffed into his hand.

"Hide it." Yi Roujing said to Ding Anguo.

Ding Anguo quickly tucked it into his arms before asking, "What is this? Fever reducers and antibiotics?"

"The dicine is used up." Yi Roujing replied honestly.

"Who did you use it for?" Ding Anguo asked quietly, "Anmin, you borrowed dicine from Kaiying, she was worried and ca to our house in the afternoon. After finding no one at ho, she went looking for mom and dad, and , but never heard from you two, even the captain was alerted. You’ll have to explain this well later."

"How to explain?" Ding Anmin looked at Yi Roujing with a mournful face, eyes questioning.

"Just tell the truth." Yi Roujing seed indifferent.

"What!" Ding Anmin was astonished, his mouth hanging open.

"I’ll explain it, don’t worry." Yi Roujing turned back and gave Ding Anmin a reassuring look.

In the Ding family’s small yard, Captain Ding Xiaoding and his wife Huang Kaiying were sitting down. As soon as Yi Roujing and Ding Anmin ca in, Huang Kaiying stood up imdiately.

"What’s going on? What’s happened? Why are you covered in mud? I’ve been anxiously searching everywhere, but couldn’t find you." Huang Kaiying, a mber of the team’s won’s association, was particularly attentive to her female comrades, checking over Ding Anmin and Yi Roujing.

Ding Anmin admired Yi Roujing a little. If the ginseng was on them now, it would have been discovered.

"Ancheng’s wife, are you sick again?" Huang Kaiying looked at Yi Roujing, who didn’t seem sick at all, with so doubt.

"Kaiying, it’s not ." Yi Roujing shook her head, "Today, when Anmin and I were up the mountain, we encountered a stranger, probably seventy, with an eight or nine-year-old grandson. The child fainted, burning up with fever and coughing constantly, while the old man cried bitterly beside him."

"Our Dingping Production Team is full of helpful people; seeing this, there was no way Anmin and I could ignore it. Knowing that Kaiying’s house might have fever reducers and antibiotics, we had Anmin borrow so."

"After the child took the dicine, he regained consciousness, and after sending them ho, we returned late. So we didn’t cut much pigweed."

Yi Roujing’s mood dipped for just a mont, then rose imdiately, "In special tis, special actions are needed. Tomorrow, we will work hard to earn work points."

Ding Anmin was stunned; she finally witnessed the art of lying today. Previously, her sister-in-law had no deceit, only a sharp tongue; now it’s different, her mind is smarter, and her tongue sharper.

"Anmin, Isn’t that right?" Yi Roujing turned and asked with a smile, eyes squinting.

Ding Anmin shivered all over and loudly said, "Big sister-in-law is right. In the future, we will not only work hard to earn work points but also be the caring labor force, striving to bring glory to the team."

"Very well said." Ding Xiaoding stood up and applauded, his emotions high, "You’re right. All people across the country are our good comrades; helping others is helping ourselves."

"Now that I see you two are okay, my wife and I can rest assured." Ding Xiaoding said, "Quickly wash up and have dinner."

"We have to return the tools to the warehouse today, we’ve inconvenienced Captain, Kaiying and Xiaojing." Yi Roujing sincerely apologized.

"Eh, it’s nothing, you don’t need to return the tools; my wife and I will talk to Xiaojing on our way back, tomorrow you can inform Xiaojing when you’re back to work." Ding Xiaoding generously replied.

"Thank you so much, Captain." Yi Roujing expressed sincere gratitude.

"Captain, Kaiying, take care. We’ll return the dicine after we buy it at the clinic." Yi Roujing waved her hand and said loudly.

"No need, we are part of the team too, how could we miss the chance to help?" Ding Xiaoding laughed heartily and waved back to Yi Roujing.

After seeing them off and closing the courtyard door, Li Hongying asked with concern, "Are you okay? In future, if you face such things, find Anguo to help, the two of you being girls, we’ll worry."

"Okay, mom." Yi Roujing nodded with a smile.

"Won’t you tell mom and dad about the ginseng?" As they went to wash up, Ding Anmin whispered to Yi Roujing.

Yi Roujing clicked her tongue, "What, you want to brag about our heroic escape from wolves?"

Ding Anmin shook her head vigorously, "We barely escaped the wolves; if mom broke our legs, wouldn’t that be too unlucky?"

"Good that you know." Yi Roujing agreed and nodded, "Talking about the ginseng ans talking about other things. To avoid saying anything else, going deep into the mountains we can’t deny, better to keep it hidden."

"Second brother..."

"He just helps sell goods."

"What’s this?" Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrives. Ding Anguo ca over, reaching to pull out the thing in his chest, but Ding Anmin pressed down firmly.

"What’s wrong?" Ding Anguo asked, confused.

"What’s wrong?" Ding Weihuo, who was making grass ropes, raised his head at the noise.

"Dad, let’s buy a bicycle." Yi Roujing suddenly said sothing unrelated, successfully attracting everyone’s attention.

"Ah..." Ding Weihuo was stunned but quickly reacted, "It’s ti to buy one."

"You have the ticket, I’ll give you the money. Whenever convenient, take a trip to the county and ride the bicycle back." Li Hongying poked her head out of the kitchen and said.

"Money with ..."

Yi Roujing didn’t get the chance to finish.

"What I gave you before was yours as a couple. If it weren’t for the bicycle ticket, we’d have it, would’ve co from us. Luckily, Ancheng can handle it." Li Hongying said.

"When Anguo got married, we gave the bike money too." Li Hongying added.

"When big sis gets the bike, can I ride?" Ding Anguo asked, conflicted.

"Of course." Yi Roujing replied, with a smile as warm as spring breeze.

"Second brother, co, let’s discuss when to go to the county." Ding Anmin jumped up, one arm hooking over Anguo’s shoulders, successfully blocking the front of Ding Anguo’s chest.

"Let’s talk in my room." Ding Anmin pulled Ding Anguo inside.

Yi Roujing naturally followed, asking, "Should we buy a n’s or won’s bike, and what brand is good..."

"If big sister-in-law rides, better a won’s bike. Won’s bikes are fine for big brother and too. n’s bikes are a bit much for big sister-in-law and Anmin." Ding Anguo analyzed.

"Take out the thing." Once inside, Yi Roujing reached out. Ding Anguo hesitated for a few seconds before realizing, taking it out and asking, "I’ve been aning to give you this, is this...ah!"

Ding Anguo’s shout was successfully blocked by Ding Anmin’s palm.
