Chapter 80: Sister Ye Ying doesn't want to live with you anymore, does she?
Unexpectedly, Ye Ying did such a "big thing" as soon as she returned to the village, which made the village chief and the villagers change their views of her a lot.
Although people who dislike her still have to deal with it, there are still some friendly voices.
It was precisely because Ye Ying brought the first cooperation to the village that Wang Lijun, after discussing with the village committee, applied for a 100 yuan reward for Ye Ying.
I want to encourage everyone to actively contribute to the development of the village.
The next day, several people from the village committee came to Ye Ying's house and "awarded" the 100 yuan reward to Ye Ying in front of all the villagers.
Not only that, Wang Lijun also praised Ye Ying in person and asked the villagers to learn from her and contribute to the construction of the countryside.
Although 100 yuan is not a lot, it is two or three months' salary. Many people were unhappy when they learned that Ye Ying received a 100 yuan reward.
After all, in their opinion, Ye Ying didn't do much. She just helped them find a potato factory. If they were to find one, they would definitely be able to do it.
It would be fine to just give public recognition, but I didn't expect that they would have to give money as a reward. Naturally, some people would be unhappy about that.
Among these people were Ye Ying's relatives and the widow Li next door.
Generally speaking, relatives cannot bear to see other families living better than their own. Seeing Ye Ying suddenly become the object of praise by the village chief, cousin Chen Xiaoyun was the most unhappy.
She always thought that she was not only prettier than Ye Ying, but also more hardworking. She had been working diligently in the supply and marketing cooperative, which made her many times better than Ye Ying, who was so careless.
How come her cousin who was as fat as a pig not only married a military officer but also made such a big fuss that even the village chief praised her, while she herself remained unknown?
The more Chen Xiaoyun thought about it, the more unconvinced she became. However, she could only go back to the supply and marketing cooperative and stare at the goods.
Ye Ying stayed in her hometown village for more than ten or twenty days this time, and it seemed that she had no intention of returning to the compound.
Before leaving the camp, Ji Lianqi tore off a page of the calendar.
He counted the days carefully and found that she had been away for about twenty days.
Looking at the neatly folded quilt on Ye Ying's bed, he pursed his lips, put on his military cap, and went out.
I ran into Sun Lin who was leaving the house at the same time.
Sun Lin greeted Ji Lianqi politely and mentioned Ye Ying in passing.
"Captain Ji, it's been so many days, and Sister Ye Ying hasn't come back yet?"
"Sister Ye Ying...could it be that she doesn't want to live with you anymore?"
Speaking of this, Sun Lin felt very guilty.
After all, if she hadn't told Ye Ying about Ji Lianqi giving money to Lin Ranran, the subsequent series of events probably wouldn't have happened, and Ye Ying wouldn't have returned to her hometown in such a rage.
Ji Lianqi was silent for a moment and said nothing.
These days...
Indeed, it’s been almost a month.
In fact, he had thought about asking Ye Ying in person what she really thought and whether she still wanted to live with him.
But, not to mention that he couldn't leave the army easily, he didn't even know Ye Ying's home address. He only knew that her home was in a village 70 kilometers away.
Seeing that Sun Lin seemed to be still waiting for him to speak, Ji Lianqi frowned and replied, "Not yet. She should come back when she calms down."
"This……"
Sun Lin wanted to say something else, but suddenly remembered that he had something else to do, so he hurriedly said goodbye to Ji Lianqi and ran away.
Ji Lianqi went downstairs in a muffled voice.
In fact, Lin Jie returned the money he had given to Lin Ranran the next day after he knew the truth.
When he looked at the money that was now returned to him, he couldn't describe the feeling in his heart.
At that moment, all I could think about was what Ye Ying said before she slammed the door and left: "I just think you shouldn't pay for it."
On the way, Ji Lianqi met He Peng.
He Peng looked at Ji Lianqi, who looked like he didn't want anyone to come near him, and couldn't help but joked, "Brother, what are you doing? You look unhappy these days. Did Hao Yonggang bother you again?"
He Peng and Hao Yonggang came from the same place and were quite familiar with each other. He Peng always addressed Hao Yonggang by his first name in private and only called him "Captain" in public.
"No." Ji Lianqi glanced at He Peng indifferently, then continued walking on his way with his head down.
"Hey!" Jianji Lianqi didn't seem to want to pay attention to him. He Peng, who was walking beside him, got anxious and hit him in the ribs with his elbow.
Then he smiled knowingly: "What's the matter, are you thinking about Ye Ying, that tiger woman?"
Ji Lianqi glanced at He Peng: "......"
"Did I really guess it right?"
When He Peng thought of Ye Ying's figure, he felt a little scared. He couldn't imagine what it was like when she and Ji Lianqi were doing that.
The two men are of different sizes. Who is on top? Who is on the bottom?
He also had to thank Ye Ying for not using such despicable means on him, otherwise not only would he have been killed by Liu Juan, but he would have also been disgusted by her for half his life.
Thinking of this, He Peng looked at Ji Lianqi with pity and sighed.
"No." Ji Lianqi didn't know why He Peng suddenly looked at him like that, and shook his head in denial, "I..."
"I understand, I understand everything!" He Peng showed his big white teeth and made a "stop" gesture.
"Oh! Don't talk about you. I'm also fed up with my tigress! She makes all kinds of noises every day, and I get scolded by her all day long. Recently, she's been quarreling with me again because of Xiaotian's primary school enrollment."
"You keep bringing up divorce!"
Speaking of Liu Juan, He Peng was also very upset, but he couldn't really turn against her.
His father was seriously ill and the whole family depended on his allowance to make ends meet, so their financial situation was quite tight.
Liu Juan started following him when she was 20 years old. Although he had a hot temper and was always complaining to her, she did not leave him.
Thinking of his own situation, He Peng couldn't help but sigh again:
"Well! After all, she has never complained about my poverty over the years and has always stayed with me. At most, she has a bad temper and is a little difficult to talk to."
"You should cherish these peaceful days! Once the people come back, the whole compound will be in chaos again."
Understand? What did He Peng understand? Really understand?
Ji Lianqi doesn't think He Peng understands.
However, having fought side by side for many years, Ji Lianqi naturally knew the situation in He Peng's family.
That's why when Ye Ying asked Liu Juan to pay for the medical expenses, he paid for it himself and gave it to her in Liu Juan's name.
But I didn't expect that Ye Ying would find out in the end.
But he still couldn't figure out how she found out.
Ji Lianqi shook his head helplessly, said nothing more, quickened his pace and shook off He Peng.
Without Ye Ying, Ji Lianqi returned to his old ways and had meals with his comrades from the Second Battalion.
