Chapter 104: Inside the House
She knew in her heart that she couldn't afford to offend him, so she could only stay away.
The other two companions, even though they thought she was stupid, still helped to change the subject: "There are people in our village who want to change. Can we change after lunch?"
Chu Hong didn't suffer any loss, and she could earn some rice. Of course, she would not turn away the rice that was delivered to her door, and she agreed without hesitation: "Okay, I'll be at home today."
Yesterday, many people in Lingzhong Village said that they would send a letter to their relatives, asking them to bring food in exchange for washbasins.
Chu Hong certainly wanted it, otherwise she would have to drive a ox cart to another village to exchange it.
When they were getting ready to go out, Chu Tong came back after finishing her work.
In the morning, she went to the warehouse to ask the villagers who were working to get their farm tools, and then took a look around the house being built, and then she had time to go home.
She had been married to Lingshang Village for many years, so she naturally knew everyone and greeted them naturally: "You are here, would you like to come in and have some water?"
"No, thanks. Let's go back first." They originally thought they would see Chu Tong, who had become haggard because of the divorce.
But unexpectedly, the Chu Tong in front of him was wearing a half-worn cotton coat, but her face was rosy and shiny, and one could tell at a glance that she was living a happy and comfortable life.
On the way back, the young wife who originally wanted to bully Chu Tong sighed: "I never thought she could live so well after the divorce."
For example, if she was beaten by her own husband, she would go back to her parents' home in anger, hoping that her parents would support her, or that he would give her face and come to take her home.
But after living at her parents' house for five days, her husband still hadn't come to pick her up, and she was almost kicked out by her sister-in-law.
"Everyone has his own destiny, and ours is not a good one."
"There's still a lot of time left in the future. She can't give birth to a son, so who would marry her?"
"Yes, she only gave birth to a money-losing child, and there will be no one to take care of her in her old age."
"I don't think the three sisters will have a good ending. Not only did the two who were married get divorced, but Chu Tong also gave birth to a daughter, but her sister hasn't made any progress at all."
"Hey, what you said makes sense. It seems that these sisters are not good at giving birth. Maybe they will never have a son in this lifetime."
Back at Lingshang Village at this moment, brothers Su Hongqi and Su Hongwei quietly went to the educated youth site, but they did not go to the female educated youth's site, but came to the male educated youth's house.
He also knew that Gu Ci lived in that room. Looking at the lock on the door, he frowned and said, "Their room is locked. Can you open it?"
Su Hongwei pulled it and said, "There is a way. Go back and get a piece of wire and poke it open."
Before he got married, he liked to hang out with low-class people and did a lot of sneaky things.
However, after he got married, his father, who had discovered that he had done something bad, started to discipline him strictly, and only then did he start working steadily.
But sometimes he would sneak into the black market.
In the past, the warehouse was managed by his biological father, who also worked as an accountant. Even if he sold some things on the black market, his father, the accountant, could smooth out the accounts and outsiders would not be able to tell.
Su Hongqi was very happy to hear this: "Then let's go back first. You can accompany Jin Xiang here later. After she enters the house, remember to restore the lock."
The father and his sons had agreed to let Su Jinxiang go to their room, and after the male educated youth came back, the Su brothers would take the two male educated youth who shared the room with Gu Ci.
There's no need to make it a fait accompli. After a while, everyone can see Su Jinxiang lying in Gu Ci's bed with her clothes disheveled, and then insist that she came here to call someone to go to her house to get the certificate, but was... Then Gu Ci will never be able to clear himself even if he jumps into the Yellow River.
If he doesn't want to die, he can only marry Su Jinxiang.
Su Hongwei was a little hesitant and uneasy: "If we really do this, Jin Xiang will have no way out."
Although Su Jinxiang was not polite to her two sisters-in-law, she listened to her two brothers.
Su Hongqi patted his shoulder and said, "Jin Xiang seems to be possessed by a ghost now. She is determined to marry Gu Ci."
"When they get married, we will build two foundations for them in the village. Under our noses, how dare Gu Ci treat her badly?"
"This way, we don't have to worry about Jinxiang being bullied by her husband's family in the future, don't you think?"
Su Hongwei nodded silently, thinking that what his elder brother said made sense.
Gu Ci never expected that there would be such a surprise waiting for him when he returned.
After a busy day at the reservoir, everyone was too tired to talk on the way back.
As soon as he arrived in the village, someone called Zhang Jianming and took him home on the pretext of helping him write a letter.
When he was almost at the educated youth point, Li Xun was stopped by Chen Mei, who told him that there was a big rat in the kitchen and asked him to help chase it away.
If Gu Ci were asked to go to the Su family, he would definitely be very alert.
But when he returned to their place, he opened the lock without any precautions.
I felt that there was something wrong with the lock and it couldn't be opened all of a sudden.
But the key was thin, and he didn't dare to use brute force, so he went to another male educated youth's room nearby to borrow some soap, and scratched the key on the soap a few times, which made it feel better.
People have three urgent needs. When he came out, he felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach. Since people have three urgent needs, they must not delay, so he went to the toilet first.
The toilet was in the corner behind the house. When he walked to the back of the house, he wanted to smoke a cigarette, but when he felt his pocket, he couldn't find the matchbox.
Seeing that the window was not closed tightly, he was too lazy to go to the front to unlock the door and wanted to open the window to get a pack of matches.
His bed was near the window, and on the old stool at the head of the bed were candles and matches, within easy reach.
But when Gu Ci opened the window, he saw someone lying in his bed.
Gu Ci's heart skipped a beat, but fortunately she was facing away from him and towards the door.
Therefore, he saw the woman's long braids and the floral cotton jacket draped over the quilt.
He quietly closed the window, knowing that Zhang Jianming and Li Xun had been stopped by "someone with ulterior motives".
He was thinking of a solution in his mind.
He could pretend that he couldn't open the door and not go in, and then open the door after they came back.
You can also take the opportunity to make a big fuss and call all the male and female educated youth nearby before opening the door.
But in this way, even if the Su family loses face and Su Jinxiang loses her reputation, she cannot bring down Secretary Su.
Worse still, the villagers will become more xenophobic and dissatisfied with them because of this incident, and will think that they were the ones who framed them.
The people at the educated youth point will also be targeted by Secretary Su because of this incident, and everyone's life will be difficult in the future.
Therefore, Gu Ci gritted his teeth and took a deep breath, trying to control the urge to make a big deal out of it.
He could also stay outside and not go in, letting Su Jinxiang go back the same way she came.
But if that were the case, he would feel very unwilling.
I'm also afraid that they won't give up and will continue to plot against me in the future.
A thief can steal for a thousand days, but you can never prevent a thief for a thousand days.
If only she had a partner.
Gu Ci thought to himself that he didn't want to date Su Jinxiang, but there were two male educated youth who were somewhat interested in Su Jinxiang.
He didn't know whether they were attracted to Su Jinxiang as a person or to Su Jinxiang's father.
