Chapter 53 Strange Book
Before Guo Datong even returned home, he heard that his wife had gone to the deputy head's house and scolded him for a long time over two pieces of vegetable leaves. His head suddenly buzzed.
Ignoring the sympathetic looks from others, he hurried home, only to find that the food was cold and he hadn't even cooked a meal.
He had been trying hard to suppress his anger, and now he went crazy.
But when Lu Haiyan heard this, she seemed very aggrieved.
"Guo Datong! Why are you so angry at me? If you didn't always have ulcers, would I treat those broken vegetables like treasures?"
She was so embarrassed after making a big fool of herself this morning. She thought her man would comfort her when he came back, but who knew he would just curse at her without any reason?
"Is your brain made of tofu? My sister-in-law just came yesterday, why would she care about your two pieces of vegetable leaves?"
What had she done wrong? She actually offended the deputy head's wife for two pieces of vegetable leaves.
Don’t you see how much the deputy leader cherishes his wife?
Those soldiers just took a few furtive glances at his wife, but he punished them by sending them running five kilometers away.
His own wife, on the other hand, is rushing to offend the third-in-command of Haidao. Is she dissatisfied with his life being too easy?
Lv Haiyan felt very uncomfortable when he kept calling her sister-in-law. She said without thinking, "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, don't you just like her because she's pretty? Who doesn't know what you're thinking?"
Guo Datong didn't expect her to say such nonsense. He was so angry that he felt dizzy.
"Lü Haiyan, are you talking like a human being?"
Guo Datong's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
He trained hard every day, and when he got home he had to face her ridiculous speculations. For a while, he just felt exhausted.
But to Lu Haiyan, his expression seemed as if she had guessed what he was thinking.
"Did I hit the nail on the head? Are you feeling guilty?"
Thinking about the scene when she returned home yesterday afternoon and saw her husband busy moving furniture to Su Ranran's house, she felt even more sad.
She admitted that she was indeed a little impulsive today, but was he not wrong?
Listening to his nonsense, Guo Datong was extremely disappointed.
"I'm too lazy to tell you." After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the door.
At the gate, two children, a boy and a girl, quickly retracted their heads and huddled in the corner, not daring to make a sound, as if they were frightened.
Guo Datong, who was angry, ignored him and strode out of the door.
Seeing Guo Datong leave like this, Lu Haiyan was even more angry.
I don't know whether I am more angry at Guo Datong or hate the new person who moved in more.
The news of the couple's quarrel soon spread throughout the family compound.
The family compound is not very big and there is usually no entertainment there.
Now, hearing them quarrelling, everyone became extremely curious.
"Could it be because of what happened this morning?" someone couldn't help but guess.
After all, who in the entire family compound didn't know about Lu Haiyan's outrageous behavior that morning?
"I suppose it's probably true."
It would be shameful for anyone to tell others about such a thing. He took two vegetable leaves to embarrass the deputy head of the group's wife, but she turned around and took out a bundle of vegetables.
Let’s not even talk about how she could have done such a stupid thing. The scene where she got slapped in the face alone is enough to keep people talking about it for a month or so.
"Guo Datong is so unlucky to marry such a wife." Someone said with regret.
"Who says it's not? Who is a normal person and can do such a weird thing?" someone echoed.
Lu Haiyan, who had a bad reputation in the family compound, was now being ridiculed over and over again.
Su Ranran didn't pay attention to the rumors in the family courtyard.
In the afternoon, she spread her grass seeds, covered them with a thin layer of sand, and then watered them.
These grass seeds were taken from space. Su Ranran didn't know if they could adapt to the climate of the island, but she decided to give it a try anyway.
Su Ranran has already planned the entire yard and has sown grass seeds wherever they should be sown.
Just wait a couple of days and bring back the saplings grown in the space.
After doing all this, Su Ranran was not idle either, and continued to flip through the library in her own space.
She has read a lot of books about rice and is now just waiting to apply for a piece of land so that she can try to grow saline-alkaline rice.
The books in the library are still fully arranged on the shelves.
Su Ranran had nothing to do, so she decided to make some classification labels for the library so that it would not be so difficult to find the books.
She found a stack of antique signboards from the warehouse and wrote the names of the categories on them with a brush.
First, it was the agricultural category, and Su Ranran hung the sign directly up.
Next are books related to physics and its applications.
Next is Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Materials Science…
mathematics…
…
In the end, the signs in Su Ranran's hand were not enough.
Just as she was about to find some more signs, she suddenly saw a book on the floor at the foot of the cabinet.
Su Ranran picked up the book casually.
The book I bought was a bit worn out, as if it had been read countless times.
Su Ranran looked at the cover of the book with some curiosity.
The cover was badly worn, but she could still make out the three big words "Body Tempering Technique" on it.
Su Ranran: …
When I first saw the title of this book, I felt like it was written by a charlatan to deceive people.
But when I think about it, since this book can appear in the library, it must be not a fake.
Thinking of this, Su Ranran opened the book with great anticipation, ready to see what was inside.
But although she opened the book, she was stumped.
She clearly knows every word on it, so why can't she understand them when they are put together?
Su Ranran, who didn't believe in evil, flipped through a few more pages, and finally put the book down with a look of doubt on her face.
This is the first time I feel that Chinese characters are so difficult to understand.
But Su Ranran was unwilling to give up. She had a feeling that this book was not simple.
But she really couldn't figure it out, so she had to put it aside for the time being.
When Su Ranran came out of the space, it was already afternoon.
After checking the time, she thought Shen He should be back soon, so she put rice in to cook.
By noon, Shen He had already purchased rice, flour, grain and oil.
Although Pingzhou Town is an island, it has everything you need, including a supply and marketing cooperative, a clinic, and a primary school.
A small amount of rice and flour can be purchased from the supply and marketing cooperatives, but the price is much higher than on the mainland, and grain coupons are required.
The islanders already live in poverty, so how could they afford to spend money and buy tickets here?
It would be better to catch some fish and exchange them on land.
Shen He didn't buy much, only enough for two or three days. They would go to the county to buy more in two days.
While Su Ranran was burning a fire, she was thinking about the book on body tempering techniques that she had just seen.
Suddenly, she thought of Shen He who was about to go home.
Maybe he can understand?
