Chapter 33 Why is he still beautiful?
Hao Mei's eyes fell on Rutang's skirt.
Ru Tang wore a red plaid skirt today. She had done too much work that day, and wearing long pants that were not breathable would cause her to sweat easily. This skirt was calf-length, and the ordinary style looked particularly good on the tall Ru Tang.
Hao Mei's focus was not on the skirt, but on the bloodstain on her daughter's skirt.
"Are you having your period?" Hao Mei lowered her voice and her face turned green when she saw that her daughter had rubbed her face against the cushion of the folding chair she had just sat on.
If she had known this earlier, she would have brought a mat from home. This mat was brought by Yu Yaoyang.
The men in Dali Village are very superstitious, especially when it comes to this. Hao Mei remembers that one time when she was having her period, she didn't pay attention and it rubbed against the mattress at home, so Chen Fu beat her up.
In Chen Fu's opinion, this would bring him bad luck and make him unlucky when playing cards.
Yu Yaoyang probably believes in this even more when doing business. Hao Mei was originally worried that Yu Yaoyang would beat Rutang, and now seeing this, she almost fainted.
"Ah..." Rutang was also at a loss.
She has never been accurate in calculating the dates. After she came back, she was so busy making money that she didn't even count the days. Now she is in trouble.
Toilet paper was not even popular at that time, let alone sanitary napkins.
The girls in the village use old clothes to make menstrual belts, which they wash and reuse repeatedly. Girls in the city who are better off will buy pink toilet paper and fold it into long strips.
The mother and daughter were whispering to each other, and Yu Yaoyang looked over here. Hao Mei subconsciously wanted to cover her daughter's face, fearing that he would get angry if he saw that the mat was dirty.
But Hao Mei forgot that her leg was still broken and she needed crutches to walk, and her movements were slow. Not only did she fail to cover it, she also attracted Yu Yaoyang's attention to the mat.
Hao Mei's blood ran cold, and almost instantly she thought of the scene of Chen Fu beating her.
Rutang's face turned red, it was a huge social death scene.
Yu Yaoyang put down the bench in his hand, strode towards her and raised his hand. Hao Mei was so scared that she subconsciously stood in front of her daughter, but his hand did not fall down, but moved to the buttons - was he unbuttoning?
Yu Yaoyang took off his shirt and put it on her.
The white dacron shirt fit him perfectly, and it was just enough to cover her hips when she put it on.
He was wearing a vest, revealing a large area of bronze and strong muscles. Rutang lowered her head and did not dare to look at him. She could only hear his footsteps gradually fading away.
"It's over, is he angry?" Hao Mei was extremely anxious as she watched Yu Yaoyang stride away.
Ru Tang was so embarrassed that she didn't have time to listen to what her mother said. Less than three minutes later, he came back with a package under his arm. When no one was around, he quickly stuffed the package into Ru Tang's hand. Ru Tang noticed that it was a package of pink toilet paper, and without thinking, she pulled up her white shirt to cover the toilet paper.
The two men did not exchange any words throughout the entire process, and their movements were as smooth as a meeting between intelligence workers.
Rutang rushed to the nearest public toilet like a thief, and after taking care of it, he breathed a sigh of relief.
I imagined the scene of him going into the supply and marketing cooperative to buy this for her. I felt touched and a little amused. I just saw that his ears were red. I guess he must be under a lot of pressure.
Rutang was dawdling inside while Haomei was feeling awkward and nervous outside.
Rather than feeling embarrassed, she was more worried that Yu Yaoyang would feel unlucky and beat Rutang. But after waiting for a while, seeing that he was doing what he was supposed to do as if nothing had happened, Hao Mei finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Rutang finally came out, and Yu Yaoyang, who was cleaning the table a second ago, was instantly attracted by her.
She rolled up the overly long sleeves of her shirt and tied the loose hem into a knot. This was the "BF style" that became very popular in later generations, but from today's perspective, it is unique.
Rutang was tall but had a small frame. His clothes made her look even slimmer. Her casual and lazy style instantly made her the focus. Yu Yaoyang swallowed subconsciously.
He already knew that his future wife was pretty, but every time he saw her, his heart was pounding. All he could say was just one sentence: "She's really pretty... Aunt, do you think our Rutang looks like a fairy in white?"
"Uh, it looks like it, yes." After a brief moment of shock, Hao Mei mustered up the courage to ask the question in her heart, "Yangzi, if you feel it's unlucky, we can go along the peach forest on our way back. You can just break off a branch of peach tree and hang it on the door."
"What's so unlucky about that? Why would I fold that thing?" Yu Yaoyang was puzzled.
Rutang came back and heard this, so she explained for her mother: "My mother was afraid that you would feel unlucky and that... that was touched, so she used a peach tree branch to help you suppress it."
Hao Mei was so embarrassed. If she wasn't worried about her daughter, she wouldn't have said this in front of her future son-in-law. She had suffered losses herself and was afraid that her daughter would suffer the same fate as her.
"Wow, what's so unlucky about this? Rutang, recite the slogan at the entrance of our village to me."
"What?" Rutang was confused. "When a newlywed couple enters the bridal chamber, they must not forget about family planning?"
The slogans at that time were very powerful and almost all the walls of the village were written with them. Rutang went in and out of the village every day and this sentence left the deepest impression on him.
“…You can’t just think about family planning. What’s written on the other side of the family planning wall?” Yu Yaoyang added secretly in his heart. Of course, he could still look forward to the bridal chamber and other things.
Rutang and her mother both showed confused expressions.
"Advocate science and oppose superstition!" Yu Yaoyang proudly announced the answer. This moment was simply the peak of his wisdom, no doubt about it!
"Uh, how come you remember it so clearly?" Ru Tang was a little shocked by his thorough scientific education.
Yu Yaoyang lifted his hair and revealed a very deep expression.
He often urinates under that wall. How can he tell her such an unsavory thing?
It was not until this moment that Hao Mei finally let go of her worries and truly believed that Yu Yaoyang would never beat Rutang.
After packing up the stall, the three of them pulled their stuff into the rented house. Rutang heated up the buns stuffed with locust flowers that he had brought with him, took a quick bite, then packed up and prepared to take Hao Mei to the hospital for a check-up.
Before I even left the house, two policemen came to my door.
At this time, the fat lady was sitting in the yard welding and riding a donkey. She was a little confused when she saw the police coming to her door.
"Are you Li Hua? Did you get lost while riding the donkey upside down?" the policeman went straight to the point.
The fat lady was Li Hua, and she was stunned after hearing this.
"What?"
"Your relatives reported to the police that a young couple from the countryside stole your donkey. We want to know more about the situation."
"What did you steal? My family lent Rutang our donkey, and he rode it back to me safely. It's not lost. Rutang, what happened?"
The fat lady was puzzled by the questions. What does this have to do with anything?
"It should be Accountant Wang's wife who reported the case. It must be a misunderstanding." Rutang had expected something like this to happen. He just curled his lips, not surprised.
Hao Mei was a little nervous. What was going on? Her daughter and future son-in-law were framed as thieves?
"Yoko, what's going on...huh?"
Yangzi’s expression...Hao Mei was puzzled. Her son-in-law was slandered as a thief, so why was he still smiling like a flower?
How come he's still beautiful?
