Chapter 197
Zhou Jinmei rolled her eyes. "I don't even know her, why should I like her? I'm going through all this trouble to tell her all this, isn't it just so she doesn't give up on Chen Kang just because Chen Guifeng doesn't like her? The only way she keeps clinging to Chen Kang is that Chen Guifeng will get more upset. The more upset Chen Guifeng gets, the happier I am."
"Will she really cling to Chen Kang?" Ye Fuyun asked.
"She will definitely do it." Zhou Jinmei said firmly: "Chen Guifeng has treated her like that, but she still has the audacity to come to her again and again, which shows that she really hopes to seize the opportunity to return to the city through Chen Kang. I said those things to her, but just to make her more determined."
…
The next day, Ye Fuyue handed Hao Haoranran over to Chen Guifeng and went to the supply and marketing cooperative.
Not long after she left the compound, she noticed a subtle movement behind her. Ye Fuyue simply tilted her head slightly, pretending she hadn't noticed anything, and continued walking forward.
She went all the way to the supply and marketing cooperative.
She went to buy some vegetables first, and then went to chat with Yu Tong.
"Your belly is a lot bigger than the last time I saw you." Ye Fuyue sighed.
"Yes, it's a little bigger." Yu Tong said happily.
"Why haven't you found someone to cover for you? Are you resting at home?" Ye Fuyue asked, "Your belly is so big now. Is it convenient for you to carry things around every day?"
"It's quite convenient now, and my colleagues are very caring. If there are high and heavy things that are difficult to carry, my colleagues will help me get them." Yu Tong said: "I plan to find someone to cover for me in a few months so that I can rest at home. Now I come to work every day and there is someone to talk to me. Otherwise, I would be bored at home alone."
"By the way," Yu Tong continued, "tell me about your experience giving birth so I can be mentally prepared. I heard that giving birth is very painful, and I'm most afraid of pain. Now when I think about the scene of giving birth, I get a little nervous. You gave birth to two babies at once, so it must have been more painful."
"It does hurt a lot, but it's okay, it's bearable..." Ye Fuyue and Yu Tong talked about her childbirth.
Just as Yu Tong was listening with great interest, a female voice interrupted him and said, "Fu Yue?!"
Ye Fuyue turned her head and saw Zhu Qiaoting coming in from the door of the supply and marketing cooperative.
"What a coincidence, you are also in the supply and marketing cooperative!" Zhu Qiaoting greeted Ye Fuyue with surprise on her face.
Ye Fuyue nodded lightly in response.
Zhu Qiaoting's eyes fell on Yu Tong and she asked Ye Fuyue, "Who is she?"
"My friend." Ye Fuyue simply said these three words.
Zhu Qiaoting took the initiative to greet Yu Tong: "Hello, comrade, my name is Zhu Qiaoting, and Shen Kang and I went to the countryside in the same brigade. The last time Shen Kang returned to the city, I accompanied him back."
Yu Tong didn't know about Chen Kang and Zhu Qiaoting yet. But when Zhu Qiaoting introduced herself, Yu Tong smelled something fishy and his expression became playful.
"You're accompanying Big Brother Shen back to the city?" Yu Tong asked, "Are you Big Brother Shen's girlfriend?"
"Yes." Zhu Qiaoting nodded a little embarrassedly.
Yu Tong glanced at Ye Fuyue's indifferent expression, then looked at Zhu Qiaoting. As if he had guessed something, he said to her, "You're here to buy something at the supply and marketing cooperative. Go buy something quickly, or you'll be gone if you're late."
Zhu Qiaoting originally wanted to talk a few more words with Yu Tong and improve her relationship with him.
Hearing Yu Tong say this, Zhu Qiaoting could only say, "Well, I'll go shopping first."
"Go ahead." Yu Tong said with a friendly look.
As soon as Zhu Qiaoting walked away, Yu Tong asked Ye Fuyue curiously, "What's going on? Did Brother Shen bring a girlfriend back from the countryside?"
Ye Fuyue told Yu Tong everything about Chen Kang and Zhu Qiaoting.
Yu Tong understood: "No wonder you treat her like this. She is indeed quite proactive. It seems that she really wants to marry Brother Shen and stay with us."
"If she really marries Brother Shen and stays here, it will be better than her going back to her own home. What's more, these educated youth don't know when they can return to the city." Ye Fuyue said.
In reality, it only took two more years for the educated youth to start returning to the city. But Ye Fuyue knew this within herself and wouldn't be so foolish as to tell anyone else.
"Alas." Yu Tong was content to gossip, but she couldn't comment on the matter between Chen Kang and Zhu Qiaoting, so she could only sigh.
"I'm going back. Mom is still at home taking care of Haohao and Ranran." Ye Fuyue no longer had the heart to chat.
"You go back, I'm busy too." Yu Tong said.
Ye Fuyue had just left the supply and marketing cooperative not far away when Zhu Qiaoting chased after her.
"Fuyue——Fuyue——"
Ye Fuyue turned around and looked at her calmly.
Zhu Qiaoting came over empty-handed, having bought nothing, and tried to pick up the bamboo basket from Ye Fuyue's hand.
"Let me help you carry it." Zhu Qiaoting said, "You just finished your confinement, so it's better not to lift heavy things."
Ye Fuyue dodged Zhu Qiaoting's hand: "Zhu Zhiqing, what on earth do you want to do? You followed me all the way to the supply and marketing cooperative, pretending to run into me by chance, and now you want to help me carry things. What on earth do you want to do?"
Zhu Qiaoting didn't expect that Ye Fuyue had already discovered her and seen through her little thoughts.
Her face flushed slightly as she said, "I don't want to do anything, I just want to be close to you. Aunt Chen doesn't like me, so I have no choice but to be close to you."
"Why are you getting close to me?" Ye Fuyue asked knowingly.
"I..." Zhu Qiaoting hesitated for a few seconds, "If I marry Shen Kang, we'll be sisters-in-law, and it's definitely better for sisters-in-law to be closer."
"Think about these things after you and Brother Shen are really married." Ye Fuyue said, turning around to leave.
Zhu Qiaoting caught up with her, blocked her way, and asked, "What do you mean? Do you think Shen Kang and I can't get married?"
Ye Fuyue was a little annoyed and sighed, "Whether you and Brother Shen will get married, or who Brother Shen will marry, has nothing to do with me, and I don't care about it. You don't have to come to me and try to get close to me, and I won't be your lobbyist."
Zhu Qiaoting was disappointed and sad.
She thought that at least Ye Fuyue was on her side.
"Why?" Zhu Qiaoting looked at Ye Fuyue and suddenly said, "You and Shen Yao only met once, and Shen Yao brought Aunt Chen to your house to propose marriage. Shen Kang and I have been dating for at least a year. Why did Aunt Chen dislike me and disagree with Shen Kang and my marriage, but not dislike you and agree to Shen Yao marrying you?"
"Don't you know the answer clearly?" Ye Fuyue said coldly, "Because Shen Yao and I simply want to get married, not to find a lifeline."
Hearing the words "life-saving straw" again, Zhu Qiaoting's heart trembled violently.
Ye Fuyue didn't waste any more words with her and turned away.
Zhu Qiaoting looked at Ye Fuyue's back as she walked away, thinking of what Zhou Jinmei said to her yesterday, and thinking of Chen Guifeng and Ye Fuyue's indifference towards her, she clenched her fists firmly.
