Shen Heng, the village bully of Shili Village, has a fierce and intimidating persona.
To everyone's surprise, his newly wedded little wife is not afraid of him at all. In fact, she keeps ...
Bai Jiaojiao stroked Shen Heng's fur and said, "Isn't it a little kid now? When it grows up and spring comes, I definitely won't take care of it like this anymore."
"Oh, so I can't even get a share of the benefits."
Bai Jiaojiao was studying at home, and Shen Heng didn't disturb her. He rode his bike to the hospital.
Bai Shibao's injuries were difficult to heal. After lying in bed for a long time, he needed to do rehabilitation, which meant he needed a strong man like Shen Heng to support him.
After finishing a course, Bai Jiaojiao wanted to relax, so she wanted to take Bai Doudou out for a walk.
I happened to run into Meng Hongmei outside, where she was repairing the small garden in front of her house.
"Oh my, I've heard dogs barking around here these past few days. Turns out they're yours. This little rascal is quite chubby, he must eat a lot of good food, right?"
"It eats a lot and grows fast, so we'll leave the security of this area to it from now on."
Bai Jiaojiao led Bai Doudou closer to Meng Hongmei, and Meng Hongmei looked closely and said, "Hey, those two little eyes, when the flesh on their faces is squeezed together, their eyes are almost invisible."
Bai Jiaojiao: Dou Dou, don't listen.
"Aww!" Bai Doudou responded, though it was unclear whether she understood.
"It's unhappy. What's it yelling about?"
"Call him DouDou."
"DouDou, DouDou. My two little ones absolutely adore this puppy. Can I bring them to your house to pet it after they get out of school today?"
"Tomorrow, I have something to do later today."
Even in Yancheng, not every family can afford a small dog. Coupled with the many troubles of raising a dog, people are too busy making a living to spare any energy to raise one.
There aren't many places to entertain children now, and kids love these things. Bai Jiaojiao knows the two children in this family; they are quite polite and a bit introverted. She doesn't have any aversion to these well-behaved children. Bai Doudou is a puppy that is very energetic once it wakes up, and it's a good thing for everyone to have children play with it.
Bai Jiaojiao strolled around the alley for a while, then went home to settle Bai Doudou in before going out again.
Last time at the restaurant, Tan Zidong recklessly handed her his family's contact information. Bai Jiaojiao vaguely remembered Tan Zidong, mainly because he was the one she found most disgusting among her suitors.
Tan Zidong and Ding's father worked at the same factory. Ding's father was the factory manager, while his father was in charge of scheduling. He had been trying to get Tan Zidong and her to play together since they were little.
However, Tan Zidong has never been pretty enough since he was a child; in fact, he could be described as less than ideal.
Standing at 1.7 meters tall and with a thin build, he looked like a grasshopper in autumn. His sallow complexion made him look listless and lacking in energy.
He was ignorant and incompetent, yet he liked to dress like an intellectual. He applied too much hair oil, revealing a deep slit in his hair without realizing it. After deliberately making himself nearsighted, he looked even more sleazy when he wore glasses.
But he didn't think so. After all, glasses were a rare commodity these days, a symbol that set him apart from others.
His actions were utterly appalling in Bai Jiaojiao's eyes; just looking at them made her nauseous, let alone giving him any kind of attitude.
Bai Jiaojiao herself was beautiful, and after getting used to seeing herself, she couldn't stand such a shocking appearance. She kept her distance from Tan Zidong. Who knew that Tan Zidong was like a toad eager to climb on someone's feet, both annoying and lazy.
Tan Zidong had been repeatedly defeated and resentful, so he must have harbored resentment. Now that he saw her in such a "down-and-out" state, he wanted to ridicule her, thinking that this would make up for the embarrassment of his failed pursuit.
Who knew that Bai Jiaojiao would take the phone number he gave her and have a craftsman carve a seal for her?
A widow who has inherited a huge fortune is seeking a son with a large sum of money. She requires the man to be healthy and have no medical history. Those who meet these requirements should contact XX-XXXXXXX for details.
The seal engraver glanced at Bai Jiaojiao and said with difficulty, "Young lady, at your age, there's no need to be in such a hurry. With your looks and qualifications, what kind of woman can't you find?"
Bai Jiaojiao shook her head: "I printed it for someone else, she was too embarrassed to come over herself."
The newspaper staff then said they "understood" and soon made a wooden stamp for Bai Jiaojiao, charging her two cents.
Bai Jiaojiao went to the copy shop and bought several sheets of the lowest quality thin paper. She cut each sheet into twenty-four pieces, making ten sheets at a time. She made about three thousand sheets, costing a total of thirty-five cents, but she was exhausted.
Bai Jiaojiao thought to herself, "I should have let Shen Heng come back to help me."
Looking at the large stack of scraps of paper in her hand, resembling those old-fashioned tabloids from the red-light district, all she needed now was a reckless thug to give her a couple of bucks and put these things up in the open.
These kinds of small ads don't exist now. After all, if you're going to advertise, you have to clearly state your background, and people will be able to catch you easily.
The only things that could be posted were job postings and government slogans, so there was no organization specifically tasked with tearing down small advertisements like in later generations.
This thing is very eye-catching when posted out, especially with such sensational content.
Bai Jiaojiao doesn't know anyone like that, so Shen Heng needs to help her. He knows many people from his business dealings and might be able to find someone suitable.
Wang Fushun stayed in Yancheng for several days, staying at a guesthouse by himself, determined not to disturb Shen Heng and Bai Jiaojiao's time alone. It was unclear whether this was out of his own volition or at Shen Heng's behest.
He's going back to Shili Village tomorrow, so he'll come to their house for dinner tonight.
When he arrived, Shen Heng had not yet returned home; Bai Doudou was there to greet him.
"Sister-in-law, what is this?"
Wang Fushun was dumbfounded when he saw the contents. What did Bai Jiaojiao mean by making this?
"Oh, this guy has offended me. I'll give him a piece of my mind."
Wang Fushun laughed upon hearing this: "Sister-in-law, you really have a knack for this. Next time anyone messes with me, I'll do the same thing." He added to himself, "No wonder she can control my brother Heng like that, she's got a real brain."
"When Heng comes back, I'll ask him if he can find someone to help me put it on."
"Why wait for Brother Heng? I can handle this. I'll put it up tonight and leave tomorrow. Nobody can catch me."
It's easier to get things done at night. Wang Fushun used to be a night owl, so this kind of thing was second nature to him.
Shen Heng helped him make so much money, and Wang Fushun was worried about how to repay him. He offered Shen Heng a cut, but Shen Heng refused. If he couldn't even help with this small matter, what kind of brother would he be?
Bai Jiaojiao thought it was indeed a good fit. Wang Fushun was a stranger and didn't stay here often; he would leave soon. Even if they investigated him thoroughly, they wouldn't be able to find out anything about him.
"I'm sorry to trouble you, but the larger these advertisements are posted, the better."
"It's no trouble at all. Are the people in our village afraid to walk?"
Wang Fushun thought to himself, "I'll stay up all night and post these little notes all over Yancheng."
Offending his sister-in-law is like offending his brother Heng, and offending his brother Heng is like slapping Wang Fushun in the face. We can't tolerate that!
