Seeing Yu Yao's certainty, Chi Yunxiang hesitated.

Could Yu Yao really produce a ticket?

impossible.

If getting industrial permits were that easy, most people wouldn't need to spend two or three years preparing to collect them for a wedding.

As far as she knew, a Flying Pigeon brand bicycle cost thirty industrial coupons. Adding the other three items, even collecting the three turns and one sound wouldn't be enough, requiring fifty or sixty industrial coupons.

Yu Yao's boyfriend is so young, and Mu Zhiqing always shakes his head when Lu Ze's position is mentioned. He must be just an ordinary officer in the army, so it's impossible for him to get so many votes in such a short time.

So Yu Yao said that on purpose, putting on a confident and composed demeanor so that Yu Yao wouldn't pursue the matter.

Chi Yunxiang believed she had figured out Yu Yao's thoughts, and immediately replied:

"I'm just saying this, do you really think you can produce a ticket?"

Mu Hehe also chimed in from the side.

His words seemed to be for her own good, but in reality, he was subtly agreeing with Chi Yunxiang's statements.

"Auntie, don't be stubborn. Just because Uncle didn't prepare one for you doesn't mean he doesn't care about you. It's also my fault. If I had known Uncle wouldn't prepare one for you, I would never have let Yunqi buy it."

She pointed to the three large items and said, "Chi Zhiqing, you make it sound so easy. Do you know how much these things cost in total?"

"It's a little over five hundred yuan in total. Yunqi is an outstanding employee of the island forest farm. His monthly salary plus bonus is only a little over fifty yuan. It would take him ten months of not eating or drinking to save up this amount. Buying industrial vouchers is an extra expense. The most important thing is to have connections."

Where in Qin Province could Lu Ze find connections?

More than 500 yuan? Not including the ticket?

Everyone present gasped in astonishment; Mu Zhiqing's boyfriend was something else entirely.

A month's salary was equivalent to almost two months' salary for a commune worker, not to mention the poor peasants who received very little money throughout the year.

Lu Yunqi nodded in agreement, "It really cost that much. Industrial tickets cost extra. Even if you have the money, you can't get the tickets without connections."

Seeing that she had achieved her goal, Mu Hehe continued, "Although my uncle's salary is good, he doesn't know anyone here. He has no connections to get tickets. Chi Zhiqing, aren't you making things difficult for him?"

After saying that, she winked at Chi Yunxiang.

Chi Yunxiang immediately understood and pretended to be generous, saying, "Mu Zhiqing is right. How about this, Yu Yao, apologize and admit that you lied just now, and I won't make things difficult for you."

Everyone around Mu Hehe agreed with her statement; it was indeed difficult to collect so many industrial tickets.

Therefore, he advised, "Yu girl, just apologize. We are just ordinary people, and getting married doesn't necessarily require the 'three turns and one sound' (referring to a set of three-wheeled vehicles and a radio). There's no need to lie just to show off."

"Yes, just apologize. Today is your wedding day, don't let this cause any unpleasantness."

"That's right. Although it's still early, there's no need to waste time on this. Trying to save face by pretending to be something you're not is not worth it."

Chi Yunxiang and Mu Hehe exchanged glances, both with a hint of schadenfreude in their eyes.

I hope Yu Yao doesn't apologize, because if she can't produce the tickets, I can make her lose face.

Even Lu Yunqi joined in the fun.

Only after Yu Yao endured much hardship did she realize how unwise it was to refuse herself.

And he regretted it.

Yu Yao had no idea what Lu Yunqi was thinking, otherwise she would have spat at him a few times.

She knew that the people who were advising her were doing it for her own good.

It's normal for them to say that since they don't know the truth.

Yu Yao tilted her head and looked at Lu Ze beside her, "I took it?"

Her voice was clear and crisp; she was asking for opinions.

Lu Ze nodded, turned to look at her beautiful face, and said, "We are husband and wife, you can arrange everything as you please."

Yu Yao was happy; his words were enough.

The comfortable and relaxed feeling that flowed between the two was obvious to everyone.

Lu Yunqi felt uncomfortable seeing this scene.

Yu Yao, that woman, has fallen for someone else so quickly. She's so fickle and unfaithful.

He was seething with anger and wanted to vent it on Yu Yao.

But you can see that the younger uncle on the side only dares to urge them on, not daring to show the slightest dissatisfaction.

“Little…Auntie,” Lu Yunqi said with difficulty, as if the words were burning his tongue. “It’s getting late, you should apologize quickly…” Noticing Lu Ze’s cold gaze, Lu Yunqi added a “okay” afterward.

Try to make your tone sound gentler.

Mu Hehe remained on the sidelines, waiting to see how Yu Yao would apologize and the situation would end.

What's the point of Yu Yao choosing Lu Ze over the incredibly wealthy Lu Yunqi? In the end, it's all for nothing.

She is the biggest winner.

Yu Yao is a pathetic wretch.

Yu Yao, unaware of their thoughts, walked towards Chi Yunxiang.

Chi Yunxiang took a step back, wary: "What are you going to do?"

Could it be that he couldn't win an argument and was about to resort to violence?

Yu Yao pulled a thick stack of industrial invoices from her pocket and slammed them onto the table in the yard.

Everyone's attention was drawn to it.

Someone leaned over for a look and said, "These really are industrial vouchers. There must be at least dozens of them in this bundle. It's enough to buy a set of enamel basins and towels, let alone a three-wheeled vehicle and a radio."

Chi Yunxiang didn't believe it. "Impossible. How could something this thick be entirely made of industrial invoices? It's a smokescreen. Only the top layer is invoice."

The brigade accountant of Baihe Brigade picked up the industrial tickets on the table and began counting them.

Mu Hehe and Lu Yunqi also widened their eyes, looking at Lu Ze in disbelief.

How did my uncle manage to get so many industrial coupons? Surely this stack can't only have industrial coupons on top, right?

Thinking about it, it's actually quite possible.

Just as they were thinking this, the accountant who was counting the votes announced the results.
