Chapter 422 Losing Face

Although Xiao Feng insisted on marrying Yu Qiaoqiao, Liu Wei's repeated reminders did leave him with some doubts.

The wedding day was quite lively, and the troupe even gave the couple some daily necessities.

Although there was no banquet, and everyone just went to give gifts and chat, it was still lively enough today.

As the matchmaker, Yang Xiu'e was quite happy.

Yang Xiu'e felt a great sense of accomplishment every time she successfully matched a couple.

But unlike her, her husband Feng Gang was not happy at all.

Feng Gang was sulking even in his sleep at night.

Yang Xiu'e has been woken up by Feng Gang several times at night recently. If it weren't for the cold weather and the need for warmth in the quilt, she would have continued to let Feng Gang sleep in the main room.

In the middle of the night, Feng Gang started muttering to himself again, which infuriated Yang Xiu'e.

I don't know what's gotten into Feng Gang, but he keeps muttering to himself in his sleep, and his voice isn't quiet at all.

The rambling in my dream was quite temperamental; I wonder who it was scolding.

Yang Xiu'e listened for a while and heard words like "You're not allowed to get married" and "I'll beat you to death".

Yang Xiu'e listened for a while and then caught the word "Qiaoqiao".

She frowned and continued listening, only to hear Feng Gang repeatedly muttering the name "Qiaoqiao".

Yang Xiue slapped Feng Gang awake, using all her strength.

When Feng Gang woke up, he saw Yang Xiue sitting there silently, like a ghost. He then noticed the intense pain on his face and said, with a fierce but weak voice, "What are you doing!"

Yang Xiu'e slapped him across the face again.

"Tell me the truth, what's going on between you and Yu Qiaoqiao?"

Feeling guilty, he suppressed his anger at being slapped.

Yang Xiue's imposing manner convinced Feng Gang that she had a firm grip on him, so he dared not act rashly.

Normally, he would have fought back long ago.

"What could possibly happen between her and me? Don't go looking for trouble. Nothing's wrong. They're married. Don't talk nonsense."

Yang Xiu'e sneered and said, "You dream about him every day, and even after you got married, you still wanted to kill Xiao Feng. You like him that much?"

Yang Xiu'e grabbed a pillow and threw it at Feng Gang.

The two started fighting. Although Feng Gang, feeling guilty, didn't really fight back, he still managed to push Yang Xiue to the ground during the scuffle.

In the dead of night, the Yu couple next door were awakened by the noise from their neighbors.

Yang Xiu'e was shouting loudly, and Cheng Guizhi, wearing a coat, called out from the neighboring courtyard wall, "Sister Xiu'e, what's wrong with you?"

Once an outsider intervened, both of them regained their senses.

Feng Gang retorted angrily, "You're fucking crazy! You wake up in the middle of the night and start causing trouble, and you're happy to be laughed at by others!"

Yang Xiu'e stared at him intently.

Feng Gang went into the courtyard and said to Cheng Guizhi next door, "It's nothing. Xiu'e had a nightmare. I just woke her up. She was frightened and hasn't recovered yet."

The commotion just now was quite loud; Cheng Guizhi was even afraid that Feng Gang had beaten Yang Xiu'e to death.

Cheng Guizhi tentatively called out, "Sister Xiu'e?"

Yang Xiue responded from inside the house. She put on her clothes and went out into the yard, saying to the neighbor, "I'm fine. It's already past midnight. Go back to sleep."

Cheng Guizhi then went back to her room to sleep.

It's four in the morning, Yu Fu just checked his watch.

What's going on next door?

Cheng Guizhi shook her head, "Who knows? They say she had a nightmare."

Although the two of them felt it was a bit strange, they didn't think too much about it.

The neighbors would go to bed around 9 or 10 o'clock; a couple who want to fight can't wait until midnight.

It was too quiet at night, and Yang Xiu'e was afraid of being laughed at by others, so she dared not make any more noise.

She angrily threw Feng Gang's pillow and clothes out.

"If you can't explain yourself clearly, don't blame me for reporting you. You want to get promoted? No way! You have no shame."

Relying on the fact that she only heard him talking in his sleep, Feng Gang said righteously, "What did I do? I just called out someone's name in my dream, what did I do? You still want to report me? You're so heartless! What kind of wife are you? I didn't do anything and you want to spread it everywhere. What kind of wife are you? I'm so wronged!"

Yang Xiu'e ignored him, threw all his things out, and lay down on the bed with her back to the door.

She was quite angry; she was still recalling what had happened since Yu Qiaoqiao came to the government office.

She couldn't think of anything special, because she had always been busy with work and hadn't paid much attention to Yu Qiaoqiao. Even after introducing her to more potential partners, she hadn't paid much attention to whether there was any flirting between Yu Qiaoqiao and Feng Gang.

Yang Xiu'e thought for a long time but couldn't come up with anything. Instead, she felt sleepy and fell asleep quickly.

Feng Gang slept in the main room for the latter half of the night under a thin blanket. After getting up, he sneezed several times.

Yang Xiu'e completely ignored him and only cooked for herself.

Feng Gang tried to smooth things over, saying, "What kind of evil aura do you have? There's really nothing between me and that person. Stop spreading nonsense."

Yang Xiu'e didn't even glance at him. Although she was off today, she didn't want to stay at home, so she went to the courtyard instead.

Next to the shoemaking workshop was a food workshop. As Yang Xiu'e walked to this place, she suddenly remembered the undergarment that Song Lubai had shown her before.

Recalling what Song Lubai said that day, Yang Xiue discerned a different meaning.

Her mind was a jumbled mess. Remembering Yu Qiaoqiao asking her to introduce someone to someone, she now felt there was more to it than met the eye.

She turned and continued forward, entering the food workshop.

The food workshop is always bustling with activity, with workers working diligently.

"Deng Hong, is Xiao Song here right now?"

Deng Hong walked closer and said, "Xiao Song went to the city with the delivery guys today. What do you need her for?"

Yang Xiue walked into the small office. "I left something here last time, I'm here to get it."

There wasn't anything important in the small office, and Deng Hong was quite busy at the moment, so she didn't go in.

Yang Xiue rummaged around for a while and found the undergarment. Without caring about the dirt, she stuffed the undergarment into the hem of her top and took it out.

After leaving the food workshop, she went to Xiao Feng's house.

She had just visited Xiao Feng's house yesterday, and Yang Xiu'e knew exactly which way Xiao Feng's door faced.

When Xiao Feng saw Yang Xiu'e arrive, he warmly invited her into the house.

Yu Qiaoqiao didn't know what she was there for, and felt a little uneasy.

Yang Xiu'e made up a reason to send Xiao Feng to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things for her, leaving Yu Qiaoqiao alone in the room.

Yang Xiu'e took out the small garment and threw it onto Yu Qiaoqiao's lap.

Yu Qiaoqiao's expression changed drastically when she saw the small garment.

She fled in such a hurry that day that she only realized when she got home that she had left her clothes in the yard of the shoemaking workshop.

This expression was tantamount to an admission of guilt for Yang Xiue.

She had previously thought that perhaps things were really as Feng Gang said, and that he was just having a one-sided crush on her.

But now…

Yang Xiue grabbed Yu Qiaoqiao's hair and said, "If you dare to be shameless again, I'll tear you apart! I'll make sure you never have the face to show your face again."
