Chapter 114 Overestimating My Strength



Fifty dumplings are not too many, but not too few either.

Chen Gui ate so much at once and felt a little full.

So he pushed the bowl aside and went to the yard to digest his food, without even paying any attention to Lu Zhaodi who was standing there in a daze.

Lu Zhaodi, who was awakened by her rumbling stomach, just saw Chen Gui turning around and preparing to leave.

She was so angry that she grabbed Chen Gui's clothes and cursed: "Chen Gui, you are a coward. You actually hit a woman. Today I will fight you."

While cursing, he punched and kicked Chen Gui.

Chen Gui dodged and retreated until he was at the edge of the table, then he grabbed Lu Zhaodi's hair and threw her out.

Lu Zhaodi was thrown out and hit the corner of the table. She was in so much pain that she couldn't speak.

It took her a long time to recover. When she got up and wanted to settle the score with Chen Gui, she found that he was not at home.

Lu Zhaodi was so angry that she wanted to throw things, but she couldn't bear to do it because she had bought everything with her own money. In the end, she could only kick the wooden stool twice in anger.

She kicked the stool, which was only as high as her knees, far away.

After venting her anger, Lu Zhaodi calmed down and felt that something was wrong with Chen Gui today.

They had been married for such a long time and had quarreled many times before. But Chen Gui had never hit her before, so why did he suddenly hit her today?

What happened before? How did Chen Gui change so much?

Thinking of this, Lu Zhaodi didn't care about the pain in her lower back and immediately chased after him.

Unfortunately, when she ran outside, Chen Gui had disappeared.

Lu Zhaodi was a little disappointed that she didn't see Chen Gui. She walked a little further and although she still didn't see Chen Gui, she ran into a group of children playing.

Considering that Chen Gui had just gone there not long ago, these children must have seen which direction Chen Gui went.

Lu Zhaodi took out a candy from her pocket and said to the child closest to her, "Zhuzi, while you were playing here, did you see which direction Chen Zhiqing went?

As long as you say it, I will give you this candy."

When the child saw the food in Lu Zhaodi's hand, he swallowed.

He pointed to the right and said, "I see. Chen Zhiqing went in that direction."

Lu Zhaodi stuffed the candy into the child's hand and ran in the direction he pointed.

Not long after, Chen Gui was seen walking quickly forward. Lu Zhaodi saw him and quickly followed him.

However, as they walked, Lu Zhaodi discovered something was wrong.

Originally, Lu Zhaodi thought that Chen Gui was going to the educated youth site to find Hu Haifeng, but she found that Chen Gui bypassed the educated youth site and walked towards the end of the village.

Apart from an old cowshed, there was only a new house built by Lin Yizhen.

Could it be that Chen Gui still wants to find Lin Yizhen?

Thinking of this, Lu Zhaodi was furious. Chen Gui had married her, but he was still thinking about that vixen named Lin.

But Lu Zhaodi did not dare to step forward to stop him, for she was afraid that Chen Gui would attack again.

After being beaten by Chen Gui, Lu Zhaodi lost all her courage. If it were before today, Lu Zhaodi would definitely go up to Chen Gui and have a big fight with him.

Lu Zhaodi didn't dare to go up and stop Chen Gui, so she could only follow Chen Gui from a distance.

Until he followed Chen Gui all the way to the outside of Lin Yizhen's house.

However, what surprised Lu Zhaodi was that Chen Gui did not come forward to knock on the door. Instead, he found a place to hide far away.

This made Lu Zhaodi a little confused. She couldn't figure out what Chen Gui was going to do.

Seeing Chen Gui hiding, Lu Zhaodi did not go forward.

After hiding in the dark and observing for a while, she didn't see Chen Gui go to find Lin Yizhen, so she didn't wait any longer because she was hungry.

Neither she nor Chen Gui earned many work points, and they had little money.

So, they always eat two meals a day.

It’s been cold recently and there’s not much work to do, so Lu Zhaodi turned two meals into one.

Because of this, Chen Gui argued with her several times, but failed to change her mind.

Today was the first day of the Lunar New Year, and Lu Zhaodi had gotten up late, hoping to have a good lunch. Unexpectedly, Chen Gui, for some unknown reason, had devoured all the dumplings in one sitting.

As a result, she has nothing to eat now, and she can only heat up two wild vegetable steamed buns when she goes home.

Lin Yizhen had already returned home, but she didn't know that she was being targeted by Chen Gui. After returning home, she cleaned the table and had lunch.

Today is Lin Yizhen’s first New Year in this world, and also the first day of 1969.

New year, new atmosphere. Lin Yizhen believes that she will have a better life in the new year.

New educated youth are coming after the Lunar New Year. I hope this new batch of educated youth can be more stable and not cause so much trouble like Lu Zhaodi did.

Of course, this is just a beautiful wish in Lin Yizhen's heart.

When there are too many people, there are too many things to worry about. Everyone has their own ideas. It is probably impossible to keep things the same as before.

Thinking of the things that the educated youth who came later did in the original owner's memory, Lin Yizhen shook her head.

It’s too early to think about these things now.

Besides, she no longer lives in the educated youth camp, so what those people do in the future has nothing to do with her.

After dinner, Lin Yizhen had nothing to do, so she went into the space to sort out her existing property.

The usable money and bills were now placed in a separate dressing box, and ten gold ingots were taken out from the warehouse and placed in another dressing box.

These gold ingots are taken out for future use.

It’s best if you don’t need it, but you won’t feel bad if you really use it.

Moreover, among the treasures in the warehouse, only gold can be exchanged for a price. Others are not only worthless but may also bring trouble to oneself.

While Lin Yizhen was packing up her things in the space, Chen Gui was hiding in a small ditch not far from Lin Yizhen's house.

Originally, he wanted to wait until no one was around and then climb over the wall to Lin Yizhen's house. But when he got to the bottom of the wall, he realized that he had overestimated his strength.

The wall was so high that he couldn't climb over it by himself.

I looked to both sides again and found that there were no stones or bricks to stand on.

In the end, I had no choice but to leave.

However, Chen Gui did not give up. He planned to go back and prepare, and then come back to climb over the wall at night.

In the evening, after Lin Yizhen had dinner, she was holding the food box when she suddenly heard breathing sounds outside the courtyard wall.

This made her feel a little strange. Who would be waiting outside her house so late?

Thinking of this, Lin Yizhen put the food box in her hand into the space.

Then, she quietly hid behind the courtyard wall and listened for a while. After confirming the location of the person outside, Lin Yizhen quickly detoured to another direction.

He jumped lightly onto the top of the wall and then jumped down from the top of the wall, but there was no sound at all.

When she reached the outside of the courtyard wall, Lin Yizhen slowly approached the dark shadow outside the wall.

When she got closer, Lin Yizhen realized that the person hiding outside her courtyard wall was Chen Gui. What was he trying to do?
