Chapter 103

Chapter 103

It's said that people are busiest when gossiping or feeling awkward, their hands constantly moving, regardless of whether they realize what they're doing. Bi Chunliu didn't want to disrupt this rare peace, but she really wanted to know what was going on with Chen Dali's runaway bride!

Bi Chunliu was glad that he had established a relationship with Aunt Liu after his rebirth. At least the two of them were people with whom he could share gossip.

Aunt Liu was drawing water from the pool. She saw Bi Chunliu coming back and greeted her. Bi Chunliu immediately begged her with joy. She hoped that Aunt Liu could understand what she meant from her eyes and tell her quickly, tell me quickly!

Seeing that Aunt Liu's bucket was already full, Bi Chunliu went forward to help, "Aunt Liu, let me help you carry it. Do you want to put it in the kitchen?"

"Yes, Chunliu, come to your aunt's house and sit for a while. Your brother Anqing went on a business trip to Heilongjiang Province last week. He brought back a lot of frozen pears. Let you try some." Aunt Liu followed Bi Chunliu and invited her into the house.

Bi Chunliu understood and walked into the house, then whispered to her, "Aunt Liu, what's going on with Chen Dali's girlfriend? I just heard about this from Brother Hou when I got off work. Didn't they say they were getting married soon?"

Aunt Liu took out four frozen pears and asked Bi Chunliu to put them in her bag before waving her hand in disdain and saying, "Don't mention it. You said that girl was just fooling around. You said she had a boyfriend, so you should have told her earlier. Her brother and sister-in-law are not good people either. This girl took over her mother's job, and her brother and sister-in-law treated her like that.

This girl is the third child in the family. Her father died in an accident, and her eldest brother took over the business. Her twin brother, feeling that she was a girl, let his younger sister take over her mother's business while he went to the countryside. Ever since this girl took over the business, her eldest sister-in-law has disliked her. Because when her brother and sister-in-law got married, her brother promised her sister-in-law to find a job for his younger brother. Her eldest sister-in-law thought that the job that her mother-in-law had promised was reserved for her younger brother. She was unhappy that her younger sister-in-law had snatched up the promising job, so she wanted her younger brother to marry her sister-in-law.

Bi Chunliu frowned, "Exchange marriage?" If the family is not extremely poor, exchange marriages rarely happen.

"Yes, otherwise her sister-in-law wouldn't be smart. The girl disagrees because she already has a boyfriend who works in the same factory as her. Their family is not well off. Their mother is gone, their father is sick and can't do heavy work, and they have two younger brothers."

Bi Chunliu thought that the conditions were indeed quite difficult. At first glance, it sounded even more difficult than his own. Everyone knows that there is no filial son by the bedside of a long-term patient. If there is someone in the family who is always sick and taking medicine, that is a hole that can never be filled.

"In order to break them up, the sister-in-law went to the young man and had a big fight. Coincidentally, the young man's father passed away after returning home. There was no way the two could continue to be together. The girl didn't want to listen to her sister-in-law's request to marry her brother, so she found a matchmaker and happened to find Chen Dali. It was really a coincidence. Chen Dali had been dating four or five girls a while ago, but none of them liked him. So he lowered his conditions with the matchmaker, and that's how he met this girl.

I think the girl probably didn't want to continue listening to her sister-in-law's nagging at home, nor did she want to embarrass her mother, so she agreed to Chen Dali. When she came to our compound, I thought she had already agreed, and she looked quite kind, so why was she so troubled? I almost thought it was another Wen Lan.

Bi Chunliu: "Then why did she elope with her ex-boyfriend again?"

Aunt Liu curled her lips in a puzzled manner and whispered, "Or maybe Aunt Zhang said that Chen Dali might be destined to be single. He made an appointment with the girl to get the marriage certificate, but he didn't know what he ate, he had diarrhea, and he went to the bathroom before he even got there. While the girl was waiting, she ran into her boyfriend. The two of them looked at each other, and it seemed that they were interested. And the girl didn't want to go home to see her sister-in-law again, so she asked the young man to get a letter of introduction, and the two of them went directly to register. When Chen Dali arrived, they had already agreed to go shopping at the supply and marketing cooperative."

Bi Chunliu: "It's a bit miserable..."

This is really... a good show.

Looking back, the reunion with first love and the missed registration with the blind date happened to the same heroine at the same time!!

No wonder everyone was so cautious and silent. Chen Dali's situation was truly pitiful. Just because of his own poop, his wife became someone else's. I couldn't even imagine the psychological trauma Chen Dali must be feeling at this moment. He'd probably have trouble using the toilet in the future!

Aunt Liu nodded. "Well, a few days ago, Chen Dali asked you, Aunt Lei, to clean up the things in the area between her house and Chen Dali's house. Old Lei kept complaining that she didn't have time. Now that Chen Dali is not getting married, she actually found time to clean it up, for fear that Chen Dali would find fault with her because of this. Your Aunt Zhang also said that we gave a gift, but Chen Dali didn't do anything about it." When her family's Zhuzi and Shuanzi were born, Chen Dali gave fifty cents to each child. This time when he got married, she paid him back fifty cents. She didn't know how to settle it in the future.

Bi Chunliu sighed. She had no personal connections with Chen Dali, so she didn't need to worry about these things.

"Grandma! I'm hungry. What are we going to eat for dinner?" Liu Jiang and Liu He went home after school.

When Liu He saw Bi Chunliu, he said in surprise, "Sister Chunliu, are you staying here today? If I had known earlier, I would have asked Bi Qiuguo and Sister Xia He to go home with us."

Bi Chunliu shook her head and said, "I'm here to get something, Aunt Liu. I won't chat with you anymore. I'm going home." She came here just to listen to Chen Dali's gossip, but as soon as she went out, she saw Chen Dali coming out of the house, so she quickly made amends for herself.

"Oh ok."

Bi Chunliu returned home, took a look around, and finally took two pieces of clothes left by her father and left. These two clothes were dark in color, so she altered them for Weiguo to wear.

She had just left the compound when she saw Li Musheng and Yu Jingjing standing on the side of the road. Tsk! Have they not confirmed their relationship yet? Yu Jingjing seems to have lost some weight. Her bright red scarf is so pretty, and so is the hairband on her head. She'll go to the supply and marketing cooperative this weekend to see if they have any, and give them to Xia He and Qiu Guo as New Year gifts.

"That lesbian! Wait a minute!"

Bi Chunliu was patted from behind before she realized she was being called. She turned around and saw it was Yu Jingjing, followed by an embarrassed Li Musheng.

Bi Chunliu looked at the two of them in surprise. Did they have something to ask him?

Yu Jingjing's complexion was very rosy, and she looked like a girl full of energy and spirit. Seeing the doubt in Bi Chunliu's eyes, she said openly and with a little pride: "Mu Sheng and I are dating. We may get married after the New Year. I'll invite you to dinner then."

"Well...ah~ congratulations, may you have a happy marriage and a baby soon!" Bi Chunliu said uncertainly. Does Yu Jingjing want her blessing?

Li Musheng: "Chunliu, we both want to thank you. I've thought carefully about what you said to me last time. I don't want to miss Jingjing. I plan to tell my mother about this in two days. After Jingjing takes me to meet her parents, I will take Jingjing to meet my mother. If everything goes well, you can come to dinner when we have a wedding banquet, along with your brother-in-law, Weiguo and others."

Yu Jingjing emphasized, "It will definitely go smoothly, Brother Musheng, you're great." Then, with a smile on her face, she said, "Thank you. My name is Yu Jingjing, and I work at the meat processing plant. If you want to buy some meat, I can help you. Just consider it a thank you gift."

Bi Chunliu didn't know what Li Musheng was thinking. She was trying to recall what she had said to him that had made him realize this. Why did it sound like they were together thanks to her? Did she lose her memory and miss some part of the plot?

"No, no, I didn't help much. Brother Li, Comrade Yu, I will definitely be there when you two get married!"

Yu Jingjing smiled with her teeth showing. Hehe, she was happy when she heard other people talking about marrying Big Brother Li. After getting married, she could live with Big Brother Li, hehe...

Yu Jingjing felt she needed to express her gratitude to this matchmaker who had helped her. After listening to Brother Li's description of the Bi family's situation, she thought for a moment and said, "I'm not being polite. How about this? I can't handle more. My cousin happens to be at work tomorrow. If you come to the meat processing plant tomorrow, I'll give you half a rack of ribs and a hind leg in exchange. How about that?"

Bi Chunliu:!!! This is so hard for me to refuse… Besides the mutton, can we have more dishes tomorrow?!

"Isn't it too much trouble for you?"

Yu Jingjing: "It's okay. It doesn't matter who I sell it to. Anyway, the pigs are well raised this year. In recent days, we have been slaughtering ten every day. It's not like I promised you much."

Bi Chunliu took Yu Jingjing's hand and squeezed it gently to thank her. He thought to himself, "Everyone likes girls who look like lucky dolls. Her hands are so soft and smooth, like dough!"

After making an appointment with Yu Jingjing to go to the meat processing plant, Bi Chunliu returned home. She wanted to tell Xing Fei and her younger brothers and sisters the good news.

Tomorrow we will roast some mutton and make some mutton and carrot soup. Yu Jingjing promised herself that she could hang the pork and eat it slowly. The Chinese New Year is only a month away, and they will definitely have a great time this year!

.

The next day.

Early in the morning, before it was fully light, Xing Fei and Bi Chunliu got up. In order not to attract other people's attention, Bi Chunliu and Yu Jingjing made an appointment to meet at five o'clock in the morning.

After washing up, the two of them rode a bicycle to the meat processing plant. Everyone was very happy to hear the good news yesterday. Xing Fei hurried to borrow a bicycle from Gao Jin last night. There was no other way because there was only one bicycle at home.

Before reaching the meat processing plant, Bi Chunliu spotted a tall, muscular man smoking at the factory gate. The two men rode up to him and got off their bikes. Bi Chunliu asked, "Hello, is this Brother Yu Youliang?"

Yu Youliang is Yu Jingjing's cousin. He put out his cigarette and looked up at the man and woman in front of him. "Are you Jingjing talking about?"

Bi Chunliu nodded. Yu Youliang didn't hesitate. He quoted a price, collected the money and receipt, and moved the meat out of the guard room. "Jingjing said you helped her, so she'll give you two extra pig's trotters."

Xing Fei put the meat away, then handed the cigarette in his pocket to Yu Youliang, "Thank you, Brother Yu."

Yu Youliang took the money and bills from Bi Chunliu in one hand and the cigarette from Xing Fei in the other, and said with a smile, "It's okay, you guys can go now."

Although the streets were sparsely populated and the factory gates were deserted, the three of them quickly completed their transfer and departed. Bi Chunliu had nothing in the back of her car. She rode behind Xing Fei, beaming with delight at the ribs, a whole pork leg, and two pig's trotters in the back seat. Life was becoming more and more enjoyable!
