Chapter 1 Caught in an Affair
Bang!
The double-glazed black wooden door of the Ye family was pushed open with great force.
Ye Xiaolin's face was tense, and her lips were trembling. "Mom, Mom! It's bad. Ma Qijun was paralyzed during his mission. What should we do?"
"What?" Wang Minzhi, the second daughter-in-law of the Ye family, was shocked when she heard the news.
What a promising young man, at the age of 28 he already had a lot of military goods. Although women don’t understand rank, every year when he comes back from his family visit, he drives a four-wheeled car that makes the whole village jealous:
"Is it...serious?"
"I'm completely paralyzed, and most importantly, I've lost my military title. Mom, I can't marry this cripple. I don't want to ruin my life. Mom, I don't want people to accuse me of being ungrateful. Please help me think of a solution, Mom."
Ye Xiaolin trembled as she grabbed her mother Wang Minzhi's hand.
"Don't panic, girl. I'll find a solution for you!"
As they spoke, the mother and daughter looked silently through the window lattice towards the room in the east of the courtyard.
In the dark room, Ye Xiaomei's face was flushed as she leaned weakly against the head of the bed. Her eyes were gentle, as if there was not an inch of bone in her body that could support her to sit up straight.
Ye Xiaomei, who was originally as thin as a bamboo pole due to malnutrition, found that her period, which came several years later than her peers, finally came three days ago. However, in just three days, her breasts grew fuller and her waist became as slender as a willow.
The buttons of her original clothes could not be buttoned at all. This sudden change made Ye Xiaomei afraid to go out for three whole days.
There was a knock on the door, and a soft voice said, "Xiao Mei, you haven't been out for a few days. Are you sick? Let me take a look."
Ye Xiaomei stood up with difficulty, holding on to the wall. Perhaps it was because it was her first period, so her body felt a little weak, but what about the white birthmark that suddenly appeared on her chest like a swimming snake?
She couldn't control herself and could not sit upright even for a moment.
"Auntie, I'm fine." Ye Xiaomei glanced at the bed sheet, tore it off and wrapped her upper body around it first, then buttoned it up reluctantly and opened the door with her uncontrollable waist.
The aunt and her daughter exchanged glances.
Ye Xiaomei only said softly:
"My cousin is back too."
"Yes, yes, yes. I just came back from the county. Are you okay? I saw that your face was red and puffy. Are you sick?"
Ye Xiaolin hurried into the room and helped Ye Xiaomei sit back on the bed:
"How about I go get you some fever-reducing medicine?"
As her cousin let go of her hand, Ye Xiaomei lay limply on the bed, only able to support her head with one hand, her eyes as charming as silk and her breath as sweet as orchid:
"I...I'm fine, just a little tired."
Ye Xiaomei looked weak and powerless, her heart was in turmoil. What was going on? Why did her whole body suddenly seem to melt?
"You said you were fine, but look at how hot you are. You must have a fever. Just wait. No matter what your cousin says, you have to go to the clinic today."
Ye Xiaolin stood up and left without hesitation, and winked at Wang Minzhi as they passed by.
Wang Minzhi quickly agreed: "Yes, go ahead. After all, we are a family. Sisters should take care of each other."
As she spoke, Wang Minzhi closed the door and said intimately, "Lie down first, you will be fine after taking the medicine."
Ye Xiaomei let out a long breath.
She didn't know if her aunt and cousin noticed anything, but she felt that her aunt and cousin were acting strangely today.
Grandma is the head of the family. She is an old lady who favors boys over girls. Just because my aunt gave birth to two sons in a row, this third child is my cousin. So my grandmother loves my aunt and all of her children as well. She regards my aunt as a hero of the Ye family, and my cousin is also loved and pampered by her.
Therefore, the aunt's family had never been so kind to the three of them, mother and daughter. Not to mention buying medicine, all the eggs laid by the chickens in the chicken coop were pocketed by them. How could they be willing to spend money on themselves?
It couldn't be helped. Ye Xiaomei's weak and boneless body almost slipped off the corner of the bed. She had no time to think about anything else.
I stood up by holding onto the wall and drank some water. Then I felt the heat in my body subsided a little. I lay down again and slept for an unknown amount of time.
When I woke up, I was startled by someone calling out from the courtyard: "Is anyone there?"
The man called several times. No one was home? Where did the aunt go? We couldn't just leave the guest there.
She supported her soft body and walked out of the room. When she reached the door, she leaned against the door frame to support herself.
Ye Xiaomei saw the man clearly. He was wearing a white vest with a pair of trousers made of Dacron, and white socks that were rare in the countryside, matched with square-toed black cloth shoes.
He was dressed neatly, but his left arm was in a plaster cast and hung around his neck with a bandage, his right leg was bandaged and curled up in the air, and he had a crutch under his armpit.
"Who are you?" There were delicate wounds on the side of his face, which were painted with purple medicine. Xiao Mei couldn't recognize who he was for a moment.
"You are Ye Xiaomei, right? Is your sister here?"
Oh, I see: "Are you Brother Ma? Please take a seat..."
Since he was an acquaintance, Ye Xiaomei could not neglect him. She quickly picked up the stool and walked over to him. As soon as she put the stool down, she felt weak when she tried to pull her hand back.
Ma Qijun was not familiar with the use of crutches, so he quickly held on to the chair to support his tired body.
Unexpectedly, he pressed on the back of Ye Xiaomei's hand.
Ye Xiaomei suddenly felt an electric current spreading from her bony hands to her entire body. A tingling sensation rushed straight to her forehead and down her spinal cord. Her already boneless body suddenly seemed to melt.
Ye Xiaomei's head buzzed and her heartbeat seemed to burst in her ears. What on earth was going on? Why did she feel so hot?
"Ye Xiaomei? What's wrong with you?" Ma Qijun looked at the girl with seductive eyes, fragrant breath, and a weak body, and he was about to faint.
Ye Xiaomei struggled painfully in her heart, and the clarity in her mind told her again and again - no, it is not allowed, there is no clear limit between men and women, they cannot be so close.
But her movements were not delayed at all. As her body could not support herself at all, she could only lie on the bench, her rosy little face pressed against the back of Ma Qijun's hand. A comfortable and greedy feeling filled every capillary, making her moan with comfort.
The sound is as gentle as the spring breeze in March that touches people's hearts.
Ma Qijun actually felt that the boneless hand in his palm was like being electrified, running along his palm all the way to his heart, and then a stream of fire went up to his throat.
He quickly retracted his hand and moved his Adam's apple.
Ye Xiaomei's body softened and slid to the ground, her waist, which was so slender that it could not be grasped with one hand, moved as fast as a snake.
Ma Qijun leaned on his unskilled crutches, bent down and pulled the person up: "Ye Xiaomei, what's wrong with you?"
"I... I'm fine." Ye Xiaomei felt like a thousand knives were stabbing her heart. Was this really going to cost her her life?
Even though she was thinking this in her heart, her weak arm still stretched out uncontrollably. The moment it was grabbed by a pair of large hands with distinct joints, her breathing suddenly became rapid.
The crutch under Ma Qijun's armpit tilted and he fell down.
"Brother Ma, you guys..."
Outside the door, Ye Xiaolin was stunned and screamed: "What on earth are you doing?"
