After all, Fang Xiuli grew up in a big family. She was not just a pretty fool, she had brains. She quickly guessed that something must have happened to He Meijiao, which was why she left without a word.
Overnight, the originally harmonious atmosphere turned into Fang Xiuli's aggressive questioning.
The sisters-in-law all retreated, looking at each other, and no one was willing to speak first.
Because on the one hand it involves Fang Xiuli, and on the other hand it involves Lu Zhanlin and Chu Yue. No matter whether it is the former or the latter, they are people they cannot afford to offend!
Seeing them hesitating, Fang Xiuli felt that something was wrong, so she simply called out their names, "Li Dahua, tell me, what exactly is going on? Who bullied Meijiao?"
Li Dahua was so frightened that she quickly denied it, "No one bullied me, absolutely no one bullied Comrade He, it's just...it's just..."
She stammered and looked around panically, hoping that someone could say something for her, which also made Fang Xiuli angry.
However, none of the sisters-in-law present dared to respond to Fang Xiuli's anger at this time. They were all cautious and kept their mouths tightly shut, not chattering like they used to gossip.
At this time, a long voice came from behind the sisters-in-law.
"Because Captain Lu is married."
When everyone turned around, they saw Xia Xiaolan.
Xia Xiaolan's presence in the compound is not strong, but she often acts together with her sisters-in-law. Whenever something happens, she doesn't dare to come forward and just watches and listens from the outside.
Plus, since she is young, her sisters-in-law are willing to take care of her more.
But every time something really happens, it is the most timid Xia Xiaolan who is the first to stand up and speak.
Fang Xiuli's eyes twitched, her face was filled with shock, her pupils contracted and dilated, as if she had heard a huge joke.
"Who... who... who is married?"
"Captain Lu, this is Lu Zhanlin."
Xia Xiaolan looked into Fang Xiuli's eyes and stepped back a little frightened, but still looked at Fang Xiuli and spoke out her words.
"Lu Zhanlin? Lu Zhanlin?! Lu Zhanlin is married?!"
Fang Xiuli forgot her well-educated and well-mannered manners as a lady from a wealthy family and kept repeating the words on her lips. In the end, her eyes were wide open in disbelief and she even spoke a few voices louder.
The next moment she came to her senses, she immediately asked.
"Who?! Who did Lu Zhanlin marry? I was only away for two months, how come he got married all of a sudden?"
In the crowd, an unknown sister-in-law subconsciously said, "Not only is it a marriage, but Captain Lu even has a child, who is already six or seven years old..."
When Fang Xiuli's eyes swept over, the sister-in-law who was speaking suddenly became silent and was too scared to speak anymore.
Fang Xiuli frowned tightly and continued to question the man, "Who? Who is it? Who did Lu Zhanlin marry?"
"Chu... Sister Chu..."
The sister-in-law answered in a trembling voice, feeling vaguely uneasy in her heart, as if she had pushed Chu Yue into a fire pit.
"Chu..." Fang Xiuli murmured in a low voice, recalling that she had heard this person during the previous conversation.
He was the man who went to work in the nearby village with Song Hongmei.
snort.
He has only been in the compound for two months, but he has already become close to Song Hongmei. This guy is really scheming.
No wonder she was able to drive He Meijiao away!
Fang Xiuli thought for a while with a sullen face, and her expression became more and more ugly. She didn't say a word to the sisters-in-law who came out to welcome her. She turned around and left with a cold face.
After Fang Xiuli's figure walked away, the sisters-in-law, with trembling hearts, dared to let out a long sigh and started talking in a low voice again.
"We...we are not selling out Miss Chu by saying this, right?"
"What do you mean by selling or not selling? Captain Lu is married and has a child. Such a big thing cannot be kept secret. Xiu Li will eventually know about it. It's just a matter of sooner or later."
"Xiu Li and Comrade He grew up together. They have a very good relationship. Do you think Xiu Li would make things difficult for Chu Mei Zi because of Comrade He? Would she deliberately bully Chu Mei Zi?"
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other and dared not speak anymore.
Someone sneered.
"Hehe." Chen Fengying snorted.
Li Dahua asked, "Chen Fengying, what are you talking about? If you have something to say, just say it. If you have something to fart, just fart it."
Chen Fengying glanced at the worried crowd and said, "Could Xiu Li be as powerful as Li Pozi? I don't think there is anyone who can bully Chu Meizi! Anyway, I don't worry about it."
After saying this, Chen Fengying shook her head, turned around and left. She was too lazy to join in the fun anymore. It was really boring.
Seeing this, Xia Xiaolan followed silently and left too.
The sisters-in-law who stayed behind looked at each other, recalling how Chu Yue knocked Mrs. Li unconscious with a knife, and then kicked the troubled Mrs. Li out of the compound.
It really is...
Whether in terms of literature or martial arts, ordinary people can do nothing to Chu Yue.
Then why worry about it?
Let’s go back to our own homes, do the laundry, cook and take care of the children!
At this time, the sisters-in-law had no idea that when Chu Yue came back, the one who would be in trouble would not be Chu Yue, but themselves.
…
In the blink of an eye, five days passed.
Chu Yue had a fairly peaceful five days in the village. Her daily job was to measure the temperature and check the health of the relevant people twice a day, and each time took no more than half an hour.
She had nothing to do at other times, so Village Chief Lu specially arranged people to take care of her food and drink. It can be said that she had more leisure time than ever before.
Just uncomfortable.
Chu Yue is the person who has the most contact with Song Dashun. She also needs to take epidemic prevention measures. She cannot have too much contact with the crowd, nor can she walk around casually.
There are mountains near the village, and the mountains are full of treasures in spring. Chu Yue had previously dug up wild mushrooms and wild vegetables. Now she can only watch the villagers go to the mountains one by one, but she cannot leave. It is really difficult.
However, Chu Yue was not idle during this period. When she was free, she entered the system's spiritual treasure space.
There are spiritual fields and spiritual springs in the Lingbao space, which can nourish a variety of animals and plants.
But when Chu Yue had this magical system, she had always been in a metropolis of steel and concrete, and had little time to come into contact with the countryside and nature. She could only buy various plant seeds, that is, some staple food and daily vegetable varieties, from online platforms.
Therefore, the biodiversity in Chu Yue's spiritual treasure space is not very rich.
But now it’s different. She has returned to the 1970s, a place that has not experienced the baptism of a modern city.
All the animals and plants, grains, vegetables, fruits, and even the Chinese medicinal herbs in the mountains are wild.
Even though Chu Yue was confined to a small area, there were still abundant supplies, such as ferns that sprouted in spring, wild bamboo shoots, grass seeds, chicken mushrooms, porcini mushrooms...all of these wild game could be put in!
The Lingbao space has become very colorful.
After some "hard work", Chu Yue came out of the system space with satisfaction.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she heard a noisy sound of footsteps...
