Chapter 17
The next morning, people from the street office came to take Ye Yu to the countryside.
Ye Yu howled like a ghost, rolled on the ground and refused to leave.
"Dad, Mom, please save me! I don't want to go to the countryside! I don't want to go to the countryside!"
"The list has been submitted. You can't just say you don't want to go and not go. Everyone says your family has a high level of ideological awareness. Is this the level of awareness in your family? Then you should go to the countryside and be reformed!" Two staff members said impatiently as they escorted Ye Yu out.
Ye's father and mother were extremely distressed, but there was nothing they could do, especially after the staff member said such words.
Ye's father and mother could only quickly pick up the things they had prepared for Ye Yu to go to the countryside overnight, and chase out to send Ye Yu off.
Ye Fuyue watched the excitement for a while and felt bored, so she rode the bicycle that Chen Yao had given her, took the radio that Chen Yao had brought her, and went to find Wu Qiaoer.
Although Wu Qiaoer was not present yesterday, she had already heard that Shen Yao came to propose marriage on the day of Ye Fuyun's wedding.
As soon as she saw Ye Fuyue, she started to gossip in an ambiguous way, "Tell me quickly! What happened yesterday? Was Ye Fuyun almost mad to death?"
Ye Fuyue told Wu Qiaoer everything that happened yesterday, including the fact that she and Shen Yao had already obtained a marriage certificate. Wu Qiaoer was delighted to hear that.
"Chen Yao is really good at it. He came to propose marriage on the day of Ye Fuyun's wedding. I can imagine how ugly Ye Fuyun's face must be! You and Shen Yao are also very fast. You proposed marriage in the morning and got the marriage certificate in the afternoon."
"There's nothing we can do about it. If we don't get the certificate quickly, my parents will definitely force me to replace Ye Yu and go to the countryside today." Ye Fuyue said.
Wu Qiaoer nodded in agreement: "You are getting married tomorrow, and I will be your bridesmaid."
"Okay." Ye Fuyue said, "Please keep this bicycle and this radio for me and take them to the Shen family tomorrow."
Wu Qiaoer quickly understood: "Is this the betrothal gift that Chen Yao brought?"
Ye Fuyue nodded. "My parents have kept the 100 yuan betrothal gift and probably won't give it to me. But I must take these two things with me. They didn't prepare any dowry for me, and I don't want to let them get away with it."
"Don't worry, I will keep it well for you. No one can take it away from me." Wu Qiaoer promised solemnly.
After saying that, she sighed again: "I didn't expect that you and Shen Yao were going so smoothly. I thought you two would never be able to succeed."
"I didn't think it would work either." Ye Fuyue told the truth.
"Chen Yao is very generous to you. I'm sure your life will be good in the future." Wu Qiaoer raised her eyebrows ambiguously at Ye Fuyue.
She added, "Do you want to sleep at my house tonight? Your brother has gone to the countryside, and your parents will definitely not be happy with you."
"It's okay, I can handle it." Ye Fuyue smiled profoundly.
…
When Ye Fuyue returned home, her father and mother had already returned and had discovered that the bicycle and radio were missing.
"Where are the bicycle and radio that Chen Yao sent? How come they are gone? Do you know?" Father Ye said to Ye Fuyue with a sullen face.
Ye Fuyue poured herself a glass of water, gulped it down, and then said, "I'll take it. I'll take it to the Shen family tomorrow."
"Why are you taking it to the Shen family? That's the betrothal gift the Shen family gave us, you..." Mother Ye didn't finish her words, she shuddered and swallowed the rest of her words.
Because after Ye Fuyue put down the enamel cup, she picked up the kitchen knife and played with it in her hand.
When Ye's mother recalled the scene last night, she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar. How could she dare to say anything else? She glanced at Ye's father and didn't dare to speak.
Although Father Ye was also very frightened, he still gritted his teeth and said in a friendly manner, "That was originally the betrothal gift given to us by the Shen family. You don't need to take it away."
"If you had prepared a dowry for me worth about the same as the bicycle and radio, I would naturally not take these things away. But you didn't prepare anything for me, and you didn't plan to give me the 100 yuan betrothal money, so of course I will take these two things away." Ye Fuyue said.
Although Ye's father knew he was wrong, he still said a little firmly: "No girl would bring a betrothal gift to the man when she gets married."
"Now I have it." Ye Fuyue said lightly.
She walked up to Ye's father and mother, shook the kitchen knife in her hand, and went into her room.
Ye's father and mother were extremely angry at her demonstrative behavior, but there was nothing they could do.
…
Even though Ye's father and mother had great resentment towards Ye Fuyue, on the day of Ye Fuyue's wedding, they still invited all the relatives and the house was very lively.
It's not for any other reason, because Shen Yao is indeed more capable than Wu Longfei, and this will make Ye's father and mother feel proud when they tell others about it.
As soon as the relatives arrived, they all complimented Ye's father and mother.
"Your family has so many happy events! The youngest daughter got married the day before yesterday, and the eldest daughter is getting married today. Each marriage is better than the other. It's really enviable!" The relative only said nice things and did not mention the commotion on Ye Fuyun's wedding day, let alone the fact that Ye Yu was forced to go to the countryside.
"No, no, Fu Yue is just lucky." Father Ye smiled and waved his hand indifferently, but his face was brightened by the praise from his relatives.
"Fuyue has been beautiful since she was a child. It's obvious that this girl will marry well. Now look, it's true!" Another relative said, "Look at the man she found. He is not only handsome, but also generous. Your Fuyue will definitely enjoy a happy life in the future."
Ye's father and mother smiled proudly.
"By the way, is today the day when Fuyun returns home?" a relative suddenly thought.
"Yes." Ye's mother nodded.
"Fuyun is returning home with his son-in-law, and you are busy marrying Fu Yue. Will you be too busy to handle it?" the relative said cryptically.
"It can't be helped. These things happened all at once. My son-in-law will definitely understand." Mother Ye said, "But, we have prepared a feast today, many of which are my son-in-law's favorites."
"Then your son-in-law must be very touched! He didn't forget him on such an important day today." A relative joked.
"How could we possibly forget him?" Ye's mother said, "We value both our eldest and youngest sons-in-law very much, and we treat them equally."
The relative smiled and said, "I wonder what Fuyun will bring back on his first day back home? The Wu family is not poorly off, so he should be able to bring back quite a few things."
Ye's father and mother also hoped so in their hearts.
The bicycle and radio were gone, and Ye Fuyun had to bring a lot of good things with him when he returned home for the first time. This would fill the void in his family.
