Chapter 36: Washing the Sheets with a Cold Face
In the dream, he was still in that shabby little village. He was blocked in a dilapidated temple by a few thugs, and the little boy was beaten until his head was bleeding.
Such things would happen every now and then, because he was a homeless child without parents and no one cared about his life or death. He was the best vent and bullying target for those thugs.
They would be happy to see him injured, and would beat him again when his injuries healed.
So he gradually hoped that his injuries would heal slowly, and he refused to use the medicine given by kind people in the village. This habit continued until he was too poor to afford medicine, but his body's recovery ability was several times stronger than that of ordinary people.
That's why he was able to get out of prison alive.
The dream jumped to the last night before he was released from prison in his previous life.
He lay on the cold bed with hatred filling his chest. Just as he was planning how to take revenge, a tender white hand suddenly touched his chest.
A breath-like voice gently reached his ears, "Brother Yubai, I like you."
The hatred surging in Jiang Yubai's chest suddenly stagnated.
After a while, he turned his head stiffly and met a pair of shimmering eyes.
The girl's skin was so tender that you could pinch out water, and her eyes, as if stained with dew, stared straight at him. Her bright red lips parted slightly, and her voice was gentle and seductive, "Brother Yubai, I like you. Do you like me?"
Jiang Yubai was so stiff that he dared not move, and his mouth seemed to be glued shut, unable to speak.
The woman bit her red lips in grievance, and tears suddenly fell from her watery eyes, flowing down her jawline to her chest.
He looked over subconsciously, and his pupils suddenly shrank.
Then, he turned his face away and closed his eyes tightly, but a small hand kept lighting fire on him, accompanied by a wronged and whimpering sound.
His throat tightened, and the string in his head suddenly broke. He grabbed the woman and pressed her under him, blocking her tempting red lips.
Then, he followed the perfect and proud lines from top to bottom, until the woman's sobbing cries were heard...
In the middle of the night, Jiang Yubai got up with a cold face, pulled off the bed sheet and crumpled it into a ball, the depression in his eyes becoming more intense.
Suddenly, a groaning sound came from the bed opposite.
"Captain, why aren't you sleeping in the middle of the night?"
Jiang Yubai's body stiffened, and he suddenly felt as if a thorn in his back. After a while, until there was no movement from the other side, he quickly took the basin of water and went out.
…
Ruan Yuntang had a good memory and returned to his yard smoothly in no time.
After entering the house, she packed Jiang Yubai's suitcase again and put it in another empty room. Then, while no one was around, she went straight into the space to prepare the perfume.
She didn't come out until midnight, and fell asleep soundly accompanied by the rich and pleasant fragrance.
Early the next morning, there was a loud knock on the yard door.
Ruan Yuntang frowned and stood up to open the door.
Outside the door was Ruan Moli, whose face was pale.
"Bitch, what the hell did you say in the army!" Her face was ferocious.
Ruan Yuntang looked at her calmly, "Did I say anything nonsense? I was telling the truth!"
"you--"
Ruan Moli was so angry that she choked with blood. She looked at the eyes that were looking at her from all around the yard and said in a low voice:
"Do you think that telling this to everyone will have no impact on you? Once your daughter's identity as a queer soldier is exposed in the army, will you still be able to stay?"
Hearing this, Ruan Yuntang chuckled, "Who said he was a qjf?"
After a pause, she looked at Ruan Moli with a puzzled look and said with a half-smile: "Didn't Yang Chuan tell you that his mother was the one who defrauded and framed Shen Weian?"
Ruan Moli's pupils suddenly dilated.
Ruan Yuntang's sharp eyes were fixed on her, and his voice gradually became sonorous and powerful.
"And you, actually got together with the son of your father's enemy who colluded with your own father and got your parents imprisoned. You are the one who is unfaithful, unfilial, unkind, and unrighteous!"
Her voice was so loud that it spread throughout the courtyards, leaving the aunties who were eating melons stunned.
Originally, they thought that the rumor about Chen Laba was unlikely to be true, but they didn't expect to hear the person involved confronting each other face to face.
Ruan Moli's face turned pale, and she was completely shocked by this explosive news. Her heart was pounding. She shook her head in panic.
"No, that's not the case, you're talking nonsense!"
"Is that true? You can go back and ask Yang Chuan and find out," Ruan Yuntang said slowly.
After saying that, she added with a smile, "Or I can let you hear what his mom and dad say in person."
Ruan Moli's pupils suddenly shrank, and she now believed it completely.
Not only is this true, but Ruan Yuntang may also have evidence in his hands!
Her mind turned over and over, and finally she thought of the benefits the system promised her. She calmed down and said tentatively, "Then...then let me hear it."
"You can't listen to it now." Ruan Yuntang saw her thoughts at a glance and shook his head and said, "Have you forgotten that I don't have electricity here?"
Ruan Moli suggested: "Then you can take it to my house."
"I dare not." Ruan Yuntang looked at her twinkling eyes and said with a smile.
Ruan Moli's face suddenly froze, and her heart was in a turmoil.
If she really had something on her hand, wouldn't she and Yang Chuan have no way to argue?
Thinking of this, Ruan Moli softened her voice and pleaded:
"Sister, let's put the past behind us. We are still sisters after all. If you need any help in the future, I will definitely help you."
"Okay." Ruan Yuntang agreed good-temperedly, but before Ruan Moli could get excited, she slowly said, "First, you and Yang Chuan should each write a letter of apology to clarify the facts and post it in the compound."
Ruan Moli's face darkened.
If this matter is really admitted, can Yang Chuan and she continue to live in the army?
But she didn't show it on her face, she just smiled and said, "Sister, wait for me to go back and talk to Brother Chuan."
After saying that, she turned and left, hurried towards the deputy political commissar's house.
Ruan Moli arrived just in time when Qiao Cui was hanging clothes in the yard.
"Aunt Qiao!" She walked in with red eyes.
Qiao Cui was puzzled when she saw her like this.
The news of the affair between Yang Chuan's mother and Ruan Moli's father spread throughout the compound overnight.
Thinking of this, her eyes and brows were cold.
But after Ruan Moli entered the room, her eyes were red but she didn't cry or say anything. She just took out a small bottle of something from her bag and handed it over.
"Aunt Qiao, I'm here to give you some antiperspirant."
Qiao Cui was slightly surprised. Looking at the thing in her hand, she was delighted and immediately took it and took out money from her pocket.
She has always had an unpleasant smell under her armpits and has been despised since she was a child. Later, she married Chen Gang, a rough man from the countryside, but he didn't despise her.
But as he rose through the ranks, the odor on her body became a hot topic in the staff quarters, with some even saying behind her back that she was not worthy of Chen Gang.
This became a thorn in her side until two days ago when Ruan Moli privately told her that she had something good to remove the odor.
Qiao Cui counted out several banknotes and handed them over.
Ruan Moli smiled haggardly and pushed her money back, "Aunt Qiao, there's no need for money. Just use it well."
After saying that, she turned and left, her back looking flustered and desolate.
Qiao Cui's eyes flashed with heartache, and she immediately stopped her, "Wait, tell me the story of your two families."
