Chapter 121 Xiao Ye, he's going to kill you!

Looking at those timid eyes and aggrieved expression, Zhou Ye felt a surge of anger!

With a forceful slap, the fool's hand fell to the ground, looking as if he wanted to pick it up again, but Zhou Ye stomped on it hard in an instant!

The fool looked up, looking aggrieved, as if he couldn't believe it or understand it.

Zhou didn't want to see that look in his eyes either.

He said fiercely:

"What are you looking at? I'm just passing by, you idiot. Go back to your cowshed; that's where you should be."

Don't follow me!

The fool pouted, "I'm hungry..."

Zhou Ye felt a surge of frustration, took a deep breath, and turned to leave!

"Waaah... My wife... ran away! She doesn't want me anymore... my wife!"

Seeing that the fool still wanted to follow behind, Zhou picked up a stone and threw it behind him.

"ah!"

The fool was startled, took a few steps back, and looked at Zhou Ye with lingering fear.

"See that? Follow me again and I'll kill you! Get lost!"

Zhou also rebuked angrily.

"young married woman……"

"Don't shout! Fool, I've never married you, we're not married, understand? I'm not your wife."

Never!

The fool sniffed, seemingly knowing why Zhou Ye was angry.

He chuckled and asked, "Hehe... So what should I call you? Not 'wife,' don't be angry anymore! Let's eat..."

The fool thought Zhou was angry because of how he addressed him, so he was going to change how he addressed him, but he still remembered that he was hungry.

Zhou thought for a moment, then took out two meat buns from his basket, and the fool's eyes lit up immediately.

"Wife..."

"Um?"

Zhou also looked at him threateningly.

The fool chuckled, "Eat steamed buns..."

"From now on, you'll call me Zhou Ye, understand? What's my name?"

Zhou Ye waved the steamed bun in his hand, and the fool was instantly attracted.

The fool's eyes followed the steamed bun, but his ears also heard clearly, and he shouted, "Zhou Ye, eat steamed buns!"

Zhou Ye...give me a steamed bun, I'm hungry..."

Zhou sighed and handed the steamed bun to the fool.

The idiot was practically drooling, but he still took out a handkerchief from his pocket, carefully wiped his hands and mouth, and then took the bun from Zhou Ye's hand and wolfed it down.

These steamed buns smell so good...

The two steamed buns were quickly finished, and she looked up to want more, but... Zhou Ye was nowhere to be seen.

"Waaah... Baozi is bad! Zhou Ye... Where did he go? Zhou Ye!"

Seeing someone approaching, the fool quickly covered his mouth, not wanting others to know about Zhou Ye, lest bad people bully him.

"Hey, you idiot, what are you doing here?"

An old woman carrying a basket hurried over and saw the mentally challenged man standing there alone, looking dazed. She quickly asked him what was wrong.

Although the idiot was reformed in a cowshed, he was also implicated by his family. What does an idiot know?

Although his family was struggling financially, he would occasionally give him half a sweet potato when they met.

The simpleton saw that it was a kind old lady and pouted aggrievedly. He was indeed bad before, but that was because no one guided him. After being reborn, although he was still a bit simple-minded, his wife said that he should know how to repay those who are good to him and should not hit people casually!

No one would like that, not even my wife.

"I'm waiting...waiting for my friend!"

The old woman chuckled: "You have friends? Hehe..."

She didn't take it seriously and took out a hard, dark cornbread from the basket. It was mixed with corn on the cob and wild vegetables. Although it tasted bad, it was very filling!

Here, eat!

The fool had just eaten two steamed buns and hadn't intended to take any, but when he thought of his parents in the cowshed, he reached out and took some anyway.

He paused...

"Thanks……"

Like a mosquito's buzz, the old woman was pleasantly surprised: "Good, even a fool can say thank you! What a polite child!"

Okay, I'm going now! I have things to do at home.

"Um!"

"Mom...Mom...Mom..." The simpleton ran back, shouting loudly.

Madam Song, also known as Bai Fenglan, quickly covered her son's mouth: "My silly child, didn't I tell you not to shout?"

"Those people have come; are they going to beat us up again?"

The fool snorted and handed the cornbread to Bai Fenglan: "Eat...eat..."

Upon seeing this, Bai Fenglan's tears flowed like a broken faucet.

"My son has become sensible and knows how to be filial!"

But before she could finish feeling sad, the fool said something that shocked her.

"Wife...I've run into my wife! Let's eat steamed buns...the steamed buns are delicious!"

Bai Fenglan looked up, horrified, and asked, "What? Son, have you ruined the village girls?"

She wasn't worried about the girls; she was worried that her family wouldn't be able to survive in the future!

The fool snorted, "Wife, my wife! No one else, my wife!"

"who?"

Bai Fenglan was still puzzled!

Song Cheng suddenly remembered and asked his son, "Chaoyang, are you talking about the Zhou family's niece?"

"Yes! My wife! But... I can't call her wife, I have to call her Zhou Ye! Little Zhou? Little Ye? Little Zhou Ye?"

Yes, Xiao Ye!

hey-hey……"

Looking at their grinning son, Song Cheng and Bai Fenglan exchanged a glance, both seeing the shock in each other's eyes!

A calculating glint flashed in Song Cheng's eyes!

"If it really is her, that would be great!"

Bai Fenglan, who knew her man best, leaned closer and whispered, "You mean, Zhou can also be used?"

"First, the fact that she can move freely means that she is not undergoing labor reform, so there is only one possibility: she is an educated youth sent to the countryside."

Since he was a sent-down youth, he could work in the fields to earn work points. I know that kid; he's capable and frugal.

She's someone who's good at managing a household!

If we had her help, life wouldn't be so hard!

Next...

I just want to know which village she was sent to as an educated youth.

Looking at his son, Song Cheng smiled and said, "Chaoyang, my good son, do you like your wife?"

"Yes, I like it! Mine!"

"Yes, it's yours. You two almost got married back then! Go ask around in the village and see if anyone knows Zhou Ye."

It's best to ask at the former educated youth settlement.

Nobody's on guard against you, you know?

The simpleton looked at Song Cheng with a bewildered expression: "Dad...do you know your wife?"

"Yes, if you knew Zhou was in that village, you could go and find her. Isn't she your wife?"

Ask her for food!

To everyone's surprise, the simpleton frowned and retorted, "No, I have to protect my wife! I can't bully... anyone who does that is a bad person!"

"Chaoyang should be a good person! His wife will like him!"

Song Cheng laughed heartily and praised, "That's right, Chaoyang is right! Zhou is your wife, you have to protect her."

Did you know?

She just arrived in the countryside; what if she gets bullied? You need to find her quickly so you can protect her.

Yes or no? "

The fool thought about it and realized, "Yes, yes, find a wife, and protect her!"

"Yes, that's more like it! Hehe..."

Having settled things with his son, Song Cheng put down his work, smelled the stench of animal excrement, and laughed out loud.

"why are you laughing?"

Song Cheng looked at his wife and smiled, "Do you know Zhou Ye? She's good-looking and gentle, but I don't know what happened during that blind date. Maybe she was suppressed too much."

Or perhaps she can't accept marrying our son.

That's why I was a bit extreme.

"But... she's such a good girl, I know her from before! She does all the housework, cooking and cleaning, she's very good at it."

You know how Old Zhou's headache is? It's this kid who massages him and brews his medicine every day! When Old Zhou talks about it, I'm so envious!

"So what you mean is?"

"Heh, don't you understand what I mean? As long as she still acknowledges the marriage agreement, everything will be easy. She can send us all the work points she earns each day and the food she gets in return."

They even did the work for us!

"Now that Chaoyang is being taken care of, even if something happens to us, we won't die with our eyes wide open in disbelief."

A glint of cunning flashed in Song Cheng's eyes, but...

"What if Zhou doesn't acknowledge it either? They weren't even engaged, and didn't our son have that kind of thing with the eldest daughter of the Zhou family?"

Bai Fenglan said hesitantly.

"You have to admit it whether you want to or not. Don't forget, she's a girl. What else can you do? Her reputation is paramount!"

Bai Fenglan smiled in agreement.

Good days are probably not far away!

Oh……

When Zhou returned to Hongqi Village, it was already dark. She walked towards the educated youth settlement, her steps uneven, and a pair of deep eyes stared at her in the darkness.

He made a sudden attack, but Zhou Ye anticipated it and struck the attacker's vitals with a sneaky move! This was a forbidden technique in boxing, which Su Da had mentioned when he taught him, and that he was particularly interested in it.

If you encounter an enemy, wouldn't it be best to kill them with one blow?

Do I need to consider whether I'm using forbidden techniques?

But... when Zhou saw the person's face, he suddenly stopped.

"grandfather?"

Zhou Weiren was so frightened that his soul almost flew out of his body.

"What are you doing, kid? You scared your grandpa to death! If you don't stop now, you can collect your grandpa's corpse today!"

Where did you learn those dirty tricks?

"Grandpa, did you need something from me? Couldn't you leave a note? Or just say you wanted to see me? You're hiding things, I thought you were an enemy."

Zhou Weiren looked around warily: "Come with me now!"

"What's wrong?"

"Don't speak! Let's go!"

Zhou Ye followed Zhou Weiren and soon arrived at Old Lai's house, and even went into the basement. Only then did Zhou Weiren breathe a sigh of relief, sit on the ground, and remain in a daze for a long time!

Zhou Ye then realized something was wrong: "Grandpa, what's wrong? Is someone chasing you?"

Zhou Weiren sighed: "Xiao Ye, I've found out who did it."

"What?"

"who?"

Zhou continued to ask.

Zhou Weiren looked at Zhou Ye with a hint of heartache in his eyes. Zhou Ye knew that things had changed. Who could make his grandfather show such an expression?

Suddenly a figure flashed into my mind. No, impossible!

She doesn't believe it!

He could never have gone to such lengths.

Zhou Weiren said, "Xiao Ye, my people have found out that the person who did it was Su Yunzhou! He probably gave the order before he even returned to the capital!"

"Xiao Ye, do you really want to be with him? He's going to kill you!"

Zhou Ye breathed heavily, still holding onto a sliver of hope even though she already knew Su Yunzhou's character and way of doing things.

How could that be? One second they're all lovey-dovey, their hearts are full of you, and the next second they want to kill you?

Zhou dared not accept it, nor could he accept it!

"Grandpa, this is impossible. He could kill me in a hundred ways, and I even saved him before."

"Yes, you saved me! But in those people's eyes, there is no gratitude or appreciation, only whether I have any use to them."

Once your value is used up, you're useless!

Xiao Ye, don't be silly!

"Besides, you...you have a second personality. Do you think he can accept that?"

Zhou Ye paused for a moment and then said, "It's impossible for us now!"

"You can't and shouldn't be entangled with him, and you can't trust him! Understand? Xiao Ye, Grandpa is doing this for your own good!"

"Grandpa, what exactly are you trying to say?"

Zhou also felt that his grandfather must have meant something else.

Zhou Weiren swallowed hard and said helplessly, "I know he has feelings for you, but I will never forgive him for trying to kill you."

so……

There's only one way to stop this entanglement: marry Xie Jianshe.

Rumors about you and him are everywhere in the village. He's saved you more than once. You should get married! I believe Xie Jianshe has feelings for you.

Once you get married, everything will be over!

Grandpa is relieved!

Su Yunzhou won't bother you anymore, and that's truly the end for you two!

Grandpa spoke urgently, but Zhou Ye fell silent!

"Grandpa, you're really not like yourself. Before, no matter what happened, your first fear was that I would be wronged."

But now, you've changed!

Zhou Ye said leisurely.

Zhou Weiren was furious: "Why won't you listen to advice? Grandpa doesn't have enough time left, do you have to make Grandpa worry?"

I still need to find out about your parents. Can't you understand your grandfather's feelings?

"I want to go too!"

"Bullshit! Why would a girl like you want to wade through a flood? Leave everything to me. As long as I live, I'll definitely find out about your parents."

Grandpa can't let you get into danger!

You silly child!

Grandpa was furious!

Zhou Ye exhaled a breath of stale air and looked at Zhou Weiren: "Grandpa, I will not marry Xie Jianshe. We have no feelings for each other!"

That's not suitable either!

"Why wouldn't it be suitable? How will you know if you don't try? That child is gentle and polite; he's the perfect match for you!"

"Grandpa, today is not a good day for you to talk about this. I'll be going now, and we can talk about it another day!"

Zhou didn't want to argue with his grandfather any longer, so he turned to leave!

"Heh...you're just disgusted, aren't you?"

"What?"

Zhou Ye turned around in surprise!

Zhou Weiren said with a wry smile, "You're looking down on Xie Jianshe, aren't you? You were spoiled by us since you were little, and you're not happy about marrying a peasant, are you?"

Zhou Ye was shocked. These were the words of his grandfather?

impossible!

Grandpa isn't that kind of person!

"Grandpa is incompetent and probably won't live much longer. Once I'm dead, who will care about you?"

It's because Grandpa is incompetent!

"Waaah..."

Seeing his grandfather crying with his head in his hands, Zhou was at a loss. Why did it have to come to this?

Could it be?

Zhou Ye immediately grasped his grandfather's pulse; it was weak and feeble, indicating that his illness had reached a critical stage!

"Grandpa...you?"

Zhou also choked up.

Zhou Weiren sat on the ground and cried, "I am also about to die. I want to make arrangements for you before I die!"

If I can find out about your parents' affairs, that would be great!

If it can't be found, then it's fate.

I'm just worried about you. You're such a stubborn child, all you think about is revenge. You've ruined Zhou Yuanyao's family!

I was worried about you!

Zhou Ye: "Zhou Yuanyao is in jail, but he didn't die. I didn't kill Zhou Zijun either, so it can't be said that I'm the one who caused all of this."

"you……"

Zhou Weiren sighed and said, "Zhou Zijun, do you know who killed him?"

"Who?" She was curious too; who could be standing up for her? Xie Jianshe? Impossible, Xie Jianshe was a very upright person!

"you!"

Zhou Weiren said.

"Impossible! I was at the educated youth settlement that day, how could it be me! If it were me, I would have been fully conscious!"

Zhou also felt that his grandfather was talking nonsense.

Have you forgotten Zhou Ye?

Zhou Weiren stared intently at Zhou Ye, who was immediately stunned.

elder brother?

So, it was the older brother who killed Zhou Zijun?

That is... myself!

"I have no idea……"

"Of course you don't know, he's about to replace you!" Zhou Wei said angrily.

"impossible!"

For some reason, Zhou felt that her brother would never hurt her, absolutely not!

Everything my brother did was to protect me!

"Why……"

Zhou Weiren sighed deeply.

"Oh, Xiao Ye, go back and think about it yourself. Grandpa doesn't have many days left to live."

"You're my only granddaughter. Can't I see you find a good family and settle down?"

Zhou didn't say anything, got up and left!

She was lost in thought the whole way back to the educated youth settlement, and she had no appetite for the meal Bai Xue had prepared.

She spent a month in a daze, and personally prepared medicine for her grandfather, adding spiritual spring water in the process, hoping it would be helpful.

Fortunately, a month later, Grandpa's pulse did improve, and Zhou gained more confidence.

Of course, a secret was also discovered: the spiritual spring water can improve the physical condition of healthy people and can heal injuries!

However, restoring the body of a dying person requires even longer.

It's June now, the wheat has sprouted, and the villagers have seen hope! Fortunately, the commune has come up with many solutions to this natural disaster.

We found some whole grain seeds.

We couldn't find wheat, rice, or corn, but we did find some sweet potatoes and rice, so other villages started planting these.

Even if it's not quite right, something is better than nothing.

The village chief of Hongqi Village also promised other villages that they could participate in the exchange!

"Comrade Zhou..."

At a shout, Zhou Ye subconsciously turned around and was surprised to see Su Da?

"What do you need?"

Zhou Ye's attitude was not good, but Su Da didn't mind and was clearly even more agitated.

"Comrade Zhou, it's a call from the gentleman! He says he'll be back soon!"

"Okay, I understand!"

Zhou had no intention of answering the phone!

Su Da asked in confusion, "Comrade Zhou, aren't you going to answer the phone?"

"I'm not going!"

Su Da blocked Zhou Ye's way: "Comrade Zhou, you and your husband have been in a cold war for a month. During this time, your husband has called many times, but you haven't answered any of them."

"Do I really have to break ties with my husband?"

"You're talking too much!"

Zhou said indifferently.

Su Da was taken aback and lowered his head, saying, "Comrade Zhou, whatever your thoughts are, please answer the phone."

Otherwise, how can I explain this to my husband?

Zhou Ye looked at Su Da, who became increasingly flustered. No one knew Zhou Ye's skills better than him.

If we were to say that we could win a month ago, now we wouldn't even have a chance to draw. And that's just in terms of fighting strength.

If they add drugs, I'll be completely defenseless!

"good!"

Su Da felt a sudden sense of relief!

"please!"

"Hello?" Zhou also spoke up.

"Xiao Ye? Are you still angry? You won't answer my calls?" Su Yunzhou's voice was tired and weak.

"Is there anything else?"

It has to be said that Zhou Ye is indeed quite cold-hearted; she can just say she doesn't want it anymore!

"Heh... little girl, still angry? Alright, be good. I brought you a gift when I got back. I'm sure you'll like it."

Zhou Ye gave a cold smile, which made Su Da, who was next to him, break out in a cold sweat.

I have a bad feeling about this!

Zhou didn't say much, mainly because he didn't want to get entangled with him.

"Let's talk about it when you get back!"

"Did I hang up?"

His gaze was directed at Su Da. Su Yunzhou's eyes flashed with confusion and a hint of displeasure at Zhou Ye's indifference.

Once upon a time, who would dare to treat me like this?

But in the end, he could only sigh helplessly.

"Yunzhou? What's wrong?"

Zhou Ye hadn't hung up the phone yet and could clearly hear the voice on the other end.

That was... a young woman's voice.

But she didn't react and hung up.

opposite:

Su Yunzhou stared blankly at the phone that had been hung up, and gave a helpless bitter smile.

"It's alright!"

"Yunzhou, is that the girl you said you like? Why is she talking to you like this?"

You are the heir of the Su family!

Isn't that a bit too much?

Your parents won't accept it!

The woman speaking was Su Yunzhou's friend, someone he had grown up with since childhood, and the only friend who had taken good care of him.

Even if he is thousands of miles away, he can still be someone who listens to him!

"So, are you able to leave in a few days? Have you taken care of that matter?"

The woman asked.

Su Yunzhou smiled sweetly: "I have to go back. June 15th is her birthday, and I promised her."

Something flashed in the woman's eyes, and she smiled, "She's so lucky!"

Su Yunzhou smiled wryly and said, "I'm lucky. If it weren't for her, I would never be able to stand like this."

but……"

"Alright, Yunzhou, stop thinking about it. She definitely likes you. She's just being temperamental!"

These silk dresses and satin gowns are not something that ordinary people can afford; girls love them!

You can absolutely trust the person I found for you.

And these little sheepskin boots—they're not something just anyone can see.

Su Yunzhou smiled when he saw the gift.

Yes, who wouldn't like it?

"Thank you so much, Ningning!"

The woman's name was Zhang Ning. She was Su Yunzhou's neighbor and a childhood friend.

Zhang Ning laughed and said, "Alright, let's not stand on ceremony! Once we get there, just give me a call if you need anything!"

I've prepared everything you need; take it with you when you go to Hongqi Village.

Oh, and I've also arranged a cook for you. She's a relative from my hometown; she cooks very well and is also excellent at sewing.

"Your health is already weak, you should still take it with you!"

"good!"

Su Yunzhou is ready to come back...

However, something happened at Zhou Ye's place.

"Sister Zhou, there's someone outside looking for you!" Bai Xue came in at midday, her eyes looking a little strange!
