Xiuer was stunned for two seconds by her question, and then she frowned seriously and replied, "Sister Ye Yun, I think we can't tolerate this!"
"Yes! This shows a problem with his character. He dares to deceive you now, so what will he say to you after you marry him!"
"yes!"
"He might not even come home then, still lying to you! Oh, right, he's lying to you right now! He doesn't have a job at all, but he lies to you that he's going to work with my man in the transport team, just trying to trick you into going there and starving. How are you going to live then?!"
"You're right, I can't get married!"
Xiuer seemed to be suddenly awakened, thinking that if she really married Guo Youcai, she would have nothing and be bullied by her evil mother-in-law. How miserable her life would be!
"Yes! I absolutely cannot marry him!"
Ye Yun pushed her to her feet, her face stern, and said, "Xiuer, go out and tell your father to send someone to the Guo family a message saying that you and Guo Youcai are no longer dating! You two were never really committed to each other anyway, it's just a matter of a word!"
"OK!"
Xiuer nodded emphatically and got up to go out and tell Old Ma.
Watching her departing figure, Ye Yun breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but smirk. This silly girl, she got confused after just a few words. Now I know why she fell for Guo Youcai!
They must have been fooled by Guo Youcai's words.
Guo Youcai is not very capable, and compared to his two older brothers, he is even a lazy bum. But he is very good at deceiving people and has a lot of tricks up his sleeve. Young girls can easily fall for his tricks if they are not careful.
Fortunately, Xiuer was obedient and didn't fall into his arms.
Suddenly, Xiu'er, who was about to leave, stopped in her tracks, which startled Ye Yun.
She asked softly, "Xiuer, what's wrong?"
Xiuer turned to look at her again, her eyes filled with reluctance, and sobbed, "Sister, what should I do if I can't bear to part with you?"
"Why are you reluctant to part with him? Is there anything about Guo Youcai that you really like?"
Xiuer shook her head, "No, it's just that we've been dating for half a year. In these six months, you'd develop a bond with even a dog. How could I bear to break up with him so suddenly..."
Sigh, as you said, it's been half a year already.
Ye Yun rubbed her forehead and sighed, "We've been together for half a year, and all he gave you was two chickens? So, you're a grown woman like you, and all you deserve from him is two chickens? Go out and see what people ask for when they get married these days. Three big items, four big items, sixty-odd legs, and look at what his family offered? You're reluctant to part with them, but do you think they're reluctant to part with you?"
Xiuer choked up, hurt by this cruel reality.
Today, when Li Xiuying told her that she would only be given two chickens, she was really shocked and saddened, especially when she saw Guo Youcai standing there silently. Her father was so angry that he turned around and came back.
Now that Ye Yun has said it, she understands a little better.
Yes, she's always been reluctant to part with Guo Youcai, but Guo Youcai is willing to only give her two chickens and make her suffer. Why should she?
After thinking for a moment, Xiuer turned around, pushed open the door, and resolutely walked towards her father.
"Dad, I'm not getting married, and I'm not dating Guo Youcai anymore. Let those two chickens date whoever they want, I'm not going to date them. You can have someone go and tell the Guo family!"
Inside the house, Ye Yun heard Xiu'er talking to Old Ma.
Just by listening to the anger in Xiuer's tone, you could tell that this girl was truly awake.
That's right. Two chickens were thinking of marrying a young woman. What kind of daydream was Li Xiuying having?
If they had given her just one more bag of food, she wouldn't have woken up so quickly!
A gasp of surprise rippled through the courtyard.
Old Ma was overjoyed when he heard his daughter's words.
Although it was a shameful thing that the marriage did not go through, it was even more gratifying that his daughter did not jump into a fire pit. He was so happy that he slapped his thigh and said it was great!
Ye Yun also got up and left the house.
As soon as the old woman saw her come out, she excitedly went to the stove and grabbed two white steamed buns, stuffing them into her hands and insisting that she accept them.
Unable to refuse such hospitality, Ye Yun had no choice but to accept the steamed buns.
Qin Zheng walked over and took Ye Yun's hand, then looked at Old Ma's family and said, "In that case, we'll leave now."
"Eh..."
Ye Yun tugged at his sleeve, indicating that she still had something to say to Old Ma.
Qin Zheng was puzzled, but he stopped talking and looked at Old Ma.
Old Ma's face still held a trace of joy. Seeing that Ye Yun seemed to have something to say to him, he asked in confusion, "Girl, is there anything else?"
"Grandpa, actually I came here today to see if your place has stinky tofu."
"Stinky tofu?"
When Old Ma heard this term, he smiled and waved his hand, "I don't know that. I only know how to make tofu and fermented tofu. As for stinky tofu... I really don't know how to make it."
The old woman took his hand and pointed meaningfully to Ye Yun's stomach.
That means Ye Yun is pregnant and wants to eat stinky tofu. Their daughter-in-law was the same way when she first got pregnant; she also wanted to eat strange things.
Old Ma shook his head helplessly and said, "It's not that I don't want to do it, it's that I really don't know how..."
"OK."
Ye Yun readily agreed, saying, "Then, sir, would you be interested in making stinky tofu?"
"Huh?" Old Ma looked at her with surprise, noticing the difference in her words, and asked with a hint of curiosity, "Girl, what do you mean by that?"
Ye Yun smiled, "Grandpa, I do know how to make a little stinky tofu, but my skills aren't very good. Plus, I'm pregnant now, so it's inconvenient for me to do many things, and I don't have the tools at home. I was thinking if we could work together to figure this out. I'll use the things you have at home to see if we can make stinky tofu. If we do, I'll give you the recipe, and you'll be in charge of selling it. If it sells well, we can split the profits, how about that?"
Old Ma's eyes gradually lit up. Who could resist the temptation of money these days?
He immediately clapped his hands and said happily, "Alright, I, Old Ma, have dealt with tofu all my life, I'm happy to have another tofu! Girl, you and Qin Jiazi have helped our family so much, you can play with my things if you want, you can use whatever you want in my house!"
"That's not the case."
Ye Yun smiled.
Seeing that it was getting late, she glanced at Qin Zheng and could only say, "I don't have time today. My husband has to rush to work in town. I'll come to see you another day when he has time off, okay?"
"Sure! Anything is fine!"
Old Ma was a very easy-going person. When Ye Yun and Qin Zheng were about to leave, the family insisted on seeing them all the way to the door.
After Qin Zheng took Ye Yun home, he rode his old bicycle to town.
He did this all along: he would go to the transport team in the morning and come back to see her during his lunch break, bringing her different rare items.
When it's almost time for him to go to work, he rides the old-fashioned bicycle that the transport team provided him back home.
Not long after he left, Qin Xiang'e and Tian Xiaohui returned from their stall.
Qin Xiang'e said that more and more people are coming to buy mung bean cakes and thin flour dumplings, and the products she makes are not enough to meet the demand, so she will probably have to increase production.
Tian Xiaohui asked excitedly, "Sister-in-law, guess who we ran into today?"
