Shen Meng waited for a while before seeing a group of people enter the yard in a grand procession. The children, including Yong Qiang, were startled and stood up to run into the house. Xie Jinghao saw that the leaders from the village were in the front, so she hurriedly stood up to greet them, but before she could fully stand, a hand landed on her leg, pushing her back down into her chair.
The villagers stood in the courtyard, and seeing that Shen Meng didn't even stand up, they all looked somewhat embarrassed. They had long lost the arrogance they once had, and now no one dared to speak first, fearing that Shen Meng might lash out and take it out on whomever spoke first.
Director Guo saw that no one was speaking, glanced at Lu Debang and Zhang Hongfa, and then scanned the rest of the people behind her who all had their heads lowered. She couldn't help but roll her eyes.
