Chapter 173 Calling Him Uncle

Old Man Lin and Yin Chengrong were both taken to the Public Security Bureau.

Old Man Lin confirmed that Shi Xia was right; she was indeed a member of the national key farmland trial planting project.

Shi Xia looked worried and anxious.

"Officers, shouldn't you get someone to protect me? I feel like some bastard is trying to harm me!"

Yin Chengrong: "..."

"Definitely. Our Shi Xia is just a young girl, she can't carry anything, so she needs to be well protected."

Accountant Xu, with a face full of sincerity and a guilty conscience, was trying to persuade Yin Chengrong, while the police officer beside him gave a fake smile and looked at Yin Chengrong.

"Comrade Yin, Comrade Shi Xia said that you... threatened her not to participate in the trial planting project."

Yin Chengrong tried to put on a polite smile.

"It's a misunderstanding. I never said that. There were several people with me that day. You can ask them."

Yin Chengrong's attitude of "I absolutely do not have any connections" and "I have no guilty conscience" made the police officers half-believing and half-doubting.

Record first, then verify.

Yin Chengrong stood up and walked towards Shi Xia, very politely.

"Comrade Shi Xia, I only wanted to meet you that day because I admire you for your success in growing hydroponic vegetables. I didn't expect it to cause such a misunderstanding. I sincerely apologize."

"Really?"

Shi Xia asked the question herself and answered it herself.

"So you're a good person after all. That's great! My uncle was worried that I'd be bullied if I worked with you."

"Uncle Xu, you can rest assured now. They explained it to our faces, so they must be a good person, not a two-faced scoundrel."

Accountant Xu nodded honestly, stood up with a guilty look on his face, and took Yin Chengrong's hands in his.

"Comrade Yin, I misunderstood you. It was my fault!"

“We’re worried about the child, especially since she’s young. It’s so stressful to travel like this. But now that you’re here, we’re sure you’ll take good care of Shixia along the way.”

"Shi Xia, come here, call him Uncle. If you need anything when you go out, just look for your Uncle Yin. Your Uncle Yin is a good person!"

"Hello, Uncle Yin."

Shi Xia and Accountant Xu spoke so fast that in the blink of an eye, Yin Chengrong became Uncle Yin, and he himself didn't even realize it.

Yin Chengrong wasn't stupid; he could tell that Shi Xia was doing it on purpose.

Isn't it just that they guessed he was the one dealing with them, and now they're praising him to prevent him from intervening during the trial planting?
It was a blatant, overt scheme, yet he had no choice but to go along with it.

He never expected Shi Xia to take the matter to the police station, let alone that she would expose it directly.

This is totally unreasonable!
"Uncle Yin?"

Shi Xia called him "Uncle Yin" again, and Yin Chengrong's lips twitched as he said, "You don't need to call me uncle. We're colleagues, it's only right that we take care of each other."

"That's wonderful! Thank you so much, Comrade Yin!"

Accountant Xu shook hands again to express her gratitude.

Shi Xia emerged from the police station unharmed once again, and greeted Yin Chengrong warmly with a "Goodbye, Uncle Yin," which infuriated Yin Chengrong.

He used so many receipts to set a trap, hoping to catch Shi Xia red-handed for speculation, but... the receipts were lost in the ice cave, and he still had to guarantee Shi Xia's safety during the trial planting. What kind of mess is this!

Although feudal superstition is bad, the Yin family has been really unlucky lately.

Yin Chengrong stormed off in a huff.

Shi Xia turned around and thanked Old Man Lin. Old Man Lin understood and said, "Shi Xia, trial planting is very important."

"Don't worry, I definitely won't let it affect the trial planting. But you should also be prepared that it won't be successful in every place."

Old Man Lin nodded; he knew.

Shi Xia watched Old Man Lin leave. She didn't intend to help him perfectly complete the trial planting. The only thing she could do was to improve the seeds. As for the rest of the process, she didn't plan to interfere.

Shi Xia and Accountant Xu had tacitly tricked Yin Chengrong, and in a good mood, they went straight to the state-run restaurant for a meal.

Accountant Xu touched her slightly protruding belly, thinking she looked like she had gained weight.

"Shi Xia, do you think I've gained weight?"

"Not fat!" Shi Xia said so firmly that Accountant Xu believed her without even thinking.

The two returned to the guesthouse; their train would depart at 10:00 AM the next morning.

That night, Shi Xia secretly slipped out.

During the day, after she kicked the package away, her superpower followed up, creating a space underwater so that the package not only didn't get wet, but was also hidden away.

Shi Xia successfully took the package, and the colorful receipts inside made her smile from ear to ear.

The Yin family was indeed very wealthy.

I wish I had come more often. What a pity, I missed it.

Shi Xia threw away the package, took the receipts with her, and quietly returned to the guesthouse.

In the latter half of that night, another incident occurred at the Yin family's residence.

It exploded again!
This time, the leak was in the toilet's sewer system.

The explosion was very well controlled; it happened inside the Yin family compound, and not a single bit flew outside.

The entire Yin family was vomiting repeatedly, the stench of feces filling the air; it was as if their stomachs contained a perpetual motion machine, constantly churning.

The head of the Yin family is suspected of conspiracy, but no matter how they investigate, they can't find any reason to support their claims.

As for Shi Xia, she wasn't even on the Yin family's list of suspects.

In the end, the matter was dropped again, but the Yin family secretly suspected that something unclean had entered their home, and they secretly searched for the "mystery".

Shi Xia didn't even need to make a move; the Yin family's rivals had been watching her closely.

They would immediately take action if the Yin family dared to use any feudal superstitions.

Shi Xia, who never let revenge linger, boarded the train early and, after lying down for three days, got off the train with Old Lin's trial planting team.

Before getting off the train, Accountant Xu gave many instructions and asked a group of people for help.

"Our Shi Xia is growing, so we must not skimp on her food."

"Our Shi Xia is the worst at handling conflicts, so if there's a fight, you must stop them."

Otherwise, he was afraid that someone might die.

“We Shi Xia are young. If we offend anyone in any way, keep your anger to yourself and take it out on me when you get back!”

“Our Shi Xia…”

"Comrade Xu, if we don't get off now, the train doors will close."

Old Man Lin tried to stop Accountant Xu, but Accountant Xu looked at Shi Xia one last time and stuffed the package into her hands.

"Here, don't be stingy with money when you're out and about, and don't act impulsively. Your family is waiting for you to come home."

"Understood, Uncle Xu, don't worry."

Shi Xia took the package, waved to Uncle Xu, and followed Old Man Lin off the train.

Accountant Xu kept looking out the window until the train drove away.

"Hey—you guys absolutely mustn't mess with Shi Xia, I'm doing my best to warn you."

Accountant Xu turned around and took a train for more than half a day to reach the final station.

They had sent a telegram before, so Uncle Cao brought Cao Ping to pick them up.

When Accountant Xu came down with large and small bags, she was completely submerged in them, and her head was not visible.

"Old Xu?"

Uncle Cao recognized Accountant Xu by the tips of his shoes. Cao Ping quickly stepped forward to help him carry the things, while Uncle Cao looked around.

Where is Shi Xia?

"You didn't lose Shi Xia, did you?"

Accountant Xu unloaded the package, wiped his sweat, and said, "Nonsense! I can lose myself but I can't lose Shi Xia!"

After Accountant Xu explained, Uncle Cao felt relieved and looked at Accountant Xu.

"Huh? You've gotten so fat!"
