Chapter 15 Good Show Who Are You?
In the next few days, Zhang Wenxin did not come to the Yu family courtyard.
The rumor that Yu Zhile borrowed money to take advantage of the situation became more and more serious in the village.
Some people talked nonsense and said that they saw Yu Zhile performing a ritual in the middle of the night, and they felt that something in their body was sucked away at that time.
Some people speculated that she did not jump into the sea, but was blinded by the backlash of her actions.
Those who don't believe in such rumors scoff at them, while those who believe in them hate Zhile to the core.
Yu Zhile continued to live his life as usual, unaffected at all.
Late one night, Zhou Yuesheng went to Ning Tan's house.
The flickering candlelight cast the shadow of a man with his head covered by a black cloth on the wall, occupying half of the wall.
"There's something wrong with Zhang Caihong's partner." Ning Tan pulled away the black cloth.
The man's pupils contracted when he saw Zhou Yuesheng, and a look of shock flashed across his face.
"Have you seen me?" Zhou Yuesheng did not miss the change in his expression.
The man seemed to have just remembered the struggle and suddenly shouted, "Who are you? Why are you arresting me?"
"Have you seen my photo?" Zhou Yuesheng walked towards him step by step.
The man's breathing stagnated and he denied: "Who are you? I don't know you."
"Liu Mingcong, you don't have to act anymore. What you did in the shipyard is enough to get you fired several times." Ning Tan threw a stack of information in his face.
You don’t know until you check. Once you check, Ning Tan is shocked.
After Liu Mingcong took up the position of technical director of the shipyard, he was directly involved in two accidents at sea, resulting in the loss of two senior technicians in the factory.
With a snap, papers fluttered and Liu Mingcong's face tilted to one side.
The next second, Liu Mingcong dropped his disguise and said self-deprecatingly, "It's my bad luck to fall into the hands of a cripple."
"What is your purpose in approaching Zhang Caihong?" Ning Tan asked.
Liu Mingcong didn't say anything and was hit in the nose by Ning Tan, causing blood to flow.
"Speak." Ning Tan grabbed his collar and pulled it up.
Liu Mingcong's face flushed red, and he spoke incoherently: "Revenge for... for... for my superior."
"Who is your superior?" Ning Tan continued to interrogate, holding a knife to his neck.
Liu Mingcong struggled to squeeze out a name: "Yu...Yu Zhile."
Ning Tan was shocked and let go, allowing Liu Mingcong to fall to the ground like a puddle of mud.
"Take him to Haiyu Village tomorrow." Zhou Yuesheng turned and left.
The next morning, the tide receded and Yu Zhile and Zhou Yuesheng walked to the beach.
The live broadcast started, and a group of unfamiliar viewers flooded into the room.
They made a big fuss about Yu Zhile being reported, implying that the content of the live broadcast room was fictitious.
The barrage was maliciously spammed, with the same words and phrases appearing over and over again.
Yu Zhile stared at the screen for a long time, barely able to see other comments flashing by in the gaps.
"Good morning, today is still a live broadcast of sea hunting."
"Before the live broadcast begins, I would like to make a simple response to the report. I have not done anything illegal, and I believe that the Yunbo official will clear my name."
According to official regulations, anchors cannot turn off the barrage function during the control period, so Yu Zhile asked Xiaoyun to post an announcement.
【It is recommended that all viewers block the barrage by themselves. 】
xxxx smashed a hundred seas of clouds without saying a word, and the long-lasting gift special effects covered up all the malicious barrages.
"Thank you xxxx, let's start fishing!" Yu Zhile said with a smile.
We arrived a little late today, and many seafood on the beach that had not yet been laid on the sand were bleached by the sun.
"This is a jellyfish that has melted in the sun. It can't be eaten." Yu Zhile pointed at a transparent object on the ground whose shape could just be seen.
Walking further, we saw quite a few breathing holes of shellfish. The work of digging shellfish was given to Zhou Yuesheng, and Yu Zhile walked towards the reef area.
She immediately spotted the abalone clinging to the stone.
"The abalone is much bigger than the last time." Yu Zhile weighed it, put it in the bamboo basket, and continued to explore.
After searching through the nearby rocks, she found quite a few abalones, but she only picked out ten that were of similar size.
Yu Zhile straightened up to rest, but caught a glimpse of a fist-sized hairy clam under the reef.
"This is the biggest clam I've ever seen." She used a bamboo clip to pry it open, but found that the opening and closing frequency of the clam was not normal.
When he took it and looked at it, Yu Zhile smiled.
She pried the two shells apart with force, but the octopus was still fighting hard, its tentacles sucking tightly on the inside of the shells.
"There's a small octopus living in the big clam." Yu Zhile let the small octopus suck on the bamboo clip and transferred it to the bamboo basket. "Sometimes the small octopus will find shells of different sizes to build its own house."
After saying that, she stepped onto another reef and searched for seafood carefully, and saw a nest of spicy snails.
Densely packed snails cling to the surface of the reef look somewhat scary.
Yu Zhile gave a brief introduction and turned his attention elsewhere.
The rippling water attracted her attention.
She walked to the side, out of the reef area, and saw a turbid puddle of water with the tails of fish vaguely visible.
"The cloud casino is opening. Will it contain the seafood we caught before?" Yu Zhile suddenly remembered a meme in the comments of a video about catching seafood.
As she spoke, she subconsciously looked up at the screen in the air, and the comments were still a mess.
Yu Zhile stirred the puddle with a bamboo clip, and a small fish as long as a palm jumped out and finally fell onto the beach.
The golden little fish has a large, blunt head, and its tail hits the beach with smaller and smaller amplitude.
"This is quite big fish. We can make scallion oil fish." Yu Zhile picked it up and used the same method to catch the other three fish in the puddle.
The tide was rising and she walked back to the beach.
Yu Zhile saw a small bulge, pried it open with a bamboo stick, and a small crab flew out.
The appearance of this crab is different from any seen before. Its legs are very long, and when folded, their length is almost the same as the width of its body.
"This is a strong, tight-gripping crab. The shell is very hard, the meat is small and the taste is poor, so it is generally not eaten."
Yu Zhile put it back to its original position and manually helped it lie on the sand.
She walked and stopped along the way, and whenever she saw a bulge in the crab's lining, she stopped to introduce it.
"The flower crab is very small, but it won't grow too big, and it tastes good when made into crab sauce."
"The swimming crab is pretty good, but this one is still small, so let it go."
Suddenly, there was a buzzing sound in her mind, like the prompt sound when the program was not responding.
Looking up at the screen, a warning symbol appeared in the center of the screen.
[Your live broadcast room has been suspended, please wait patiently for official news. ]
Yu Zhile’s first reaction was that he didn’t need to talk while cooking, and then his face was filled with confusion.
"Host, there are too many vulgar words in the barrage, and the official has chosen to temporarily block your live broadcast room to prevent things from getting out of control." Xiaoyun explained.
When Zhou Yuesheng approached, he saw that Yu Zhile's eyes had lost focus and he did not dare to act rashly.
After a while, Yu Zhile came back to his senses, brushed off the sand, and forced a smile: "Okay, let's go home."
Zhou Yuesheng took the bamboo basket from her hand and followed her two steps behind.
Today is a day off in the village, and Chen Zhao ran to Yu's house early in the morning.
In the past few days, he has heard a lot of rumors and is worried.
"Sister, the two educated youths who saved you that day. They were close to you and should have noticed what happened before you fainted." Chen Zhao told her the information he knew.
After spending less than half a month together, he simply didn't believe that someone with Yu Zhile's personality would commit suicide by jumping into the sea. His intuition told him that there was something wrong.
Chen Zhao was ready to swallow his pride and ask the educated youths to come out and testify.
Hearing this, Yu Zhile recalled the person with a dark face and white neck he saw before he fainted that day, and suddenly realized that it was an educated youth.
"It's okay, you don't have to go look for them. I'll send them a thank-you gift in a few days." Yu Zhile still looked as if nothing had happened.
It was a good harvest today. Zhou Yuesheng dug a lot of yellow clams and picked up a few small octopuses.
Yu Zhile moved the seafood in the wooden basin and thought about today's menu.
Steamed shellfish eggs, fried anchovies with scallions, and dumplings made with abalone and octopus.
It’s a pity that it’s inconvenient to buy meat in the village, and there’s no reason to use the meat bought from the mall, so the dumplings might be less flavorful.
Suddenly, a bicycle bell rang outside the yard.
Yu Zhi walked through the half-open door and looked into the eyes of a big-eyed boy carrying a green mailbag.
The other party obviously knew her. He waved and said loudly, "Yu Zhile, there is a letter for you. It was sent from the provincial capital."
"Okay, thank you." Yu Zhile took the letter from him.
The envelope is made of embossed handmade paper, exuding a faint floral scent, and is signed in the lower right corner - Sheng Lanyue.
The strokes of the handwriting are evenly weighted and powerful, which makes Yu Zhile feel very optimistic.
When I saw this name, a blurry dancing figure appeared in my mind.
"Friends from the provincial capital." Yu Zhile spread his hands forward.
Zhou Yuesheng knew Sheng Lanyue's identity and was not surprised, but when his eyes swept over the address information above, the aura around him suddenly changed.
He looked at Yu Zhile's back and remembered Liu Mingcong's last words last night.
At the same time, a dozen people walked towards the Yu family courtyard in a menacing manner.
Tang Guihua grabbed Zhang Caihong's sleeve, strode forward, and said, "Cai Ni, you are a cultured person. When Yu Zhile tries to argue, you must use what you have learned to fight back against her."
"Sister-in-law, there's no need for me. She definitely won't dare to make excuses. This is solid evidence." As she said that, Zhang Caihong tried to break free from her hand and walk back.
Those who went with her regarded Zhang Caihong as their backbone and all urged her to go with them.
Zhang Caihong, who had never been valued so much since childhood, ignored Liu Mingcong's instructions and walked in front with a proud look on her face.
The ones who went to Yu's house to seek an explanation were several famous families in the village. These families were really of the same kind: the men were incompetent but loved to care about their reputation, while the women loved to gossip.
Along the way, everyone was imagining what kind of compensation they would ask Yu Zhile to give.
"My family is not greedy, but you should at least pay this amount." Aunt Huang made a gesture of one hundred.
An old man with a bald head laughed out loud: "Cuihua, you are so bold."
"It's all her fault. She sucked away the good fortune in my family and caused Yaozong to fall seriously ill. Now he has lost a lot of weight." Aunt Huang pretended to wipe away her tears.
Everyone fell silent. Aunt Huang's son Yaozong fell ill two months ago, and Yu Zhile had not yet returned to the village from the provincial capital.
However, Aunt Huang's thick skin gave everyone a chance, and everyone else began to speak out what compensation they wanted, fearing that if they spoke too slowly their things would be snatched away by others.
"My family doesn't want much, just fifty and her new clothes."
"My family only needs one hundred."
"My family wants to ask Le Ni to be our daughter-in-law." The bald old man chuckled.
The noisy discussion came to an abrupt halt.
Someone laughed dryly: "Your son is worthy... to marry Leni? It will be a huge burden."
"Once you enter my house, you have to listen to me. There's no way you can subsidize your parents' home." Aunt Li has already assumed the attitude of a mother-in-law.
The group was silent for the rest of the journey.
When they reached the door of Yu's house, Aunt Huang raised everyone's fighting spirit with a shout: "Yu Zhile, you have no conscience, get out of here right now!"
"Yes! You have no conscience!"
"come out!"
Everyone clamored to agree with Aunt Huang.
Yu Zhile was reading a letter in the room, and his hands began to tremble with fear at the rough voice.
Turning around, she saw Zhou Yuesheng standing at the door with a stern expression.
"It's okay, I have a way to deal with them." Yu Zhile walked towards him with a calm tone.
Zhou Yuesheng stretched out his hand to block her way.
There was a sudden sound of the door closing, and as the world spun around, Yu Zhile could only feel the burning temperature of the palms on his waist.
When she came to her senses, she was trapped between Zhou Yuesheng's chest and the wall.
Zhou Yuesheng carefully stroked the cloud symbol on her wrist, and his hot breath sprayed on her ear.
The letter in his hand fell to the ground, and Yu Zhile's brain fell into chaos.
The noisy sound penetrated the wall and poured into her ears, but her senses were only focused on the heat that continued to emanate from the person in front of her.
Zhou Yuesheng took a step back and traced Yu Zhile's facial features with his eyes.
Finally, their eyes met.
Zhou Yuesheng said hoarsely: "Yu Zhile, who are you?"
