Chapter 12 Chapter 12 Newlyweds
"Why them?"
Wang Lai Di's heart was pounding when she heard this.
Their power is now very great. Trade unions, the Women's Federation, the Youth League Office, and even the law-enforcing public security departments all have a headache when dealing with them.
Of course, its reputation is also very bad, so bad that it can almost stop children from crying at night.
On the upper level, many families that were originally well-off have seen their wives and children separated, their homes broken up, and some of them were genuine cases and unjust cases. On the lower level, a group of volunteers wearing red armbands are messing around in the streets every day, reporting this and criticizing that, and there are too many incidents of smashing homes and beating people, causing panic among people, fearing that their families will also suffer.
There used to be a small wealthy family in their alley, but because this family occupied an entire courtyard, they were reported by someone unknown, and the scene of vandalism and destruction was unbearable, with the cries of men, women, and children. Anyone with a conscience would not have been able to bear it.
That family hasn't returned yet. It is said that they have been relocated to a farm. More than a dozen families have already moved into their house. No one knows if they will ever come back alive. How pitiful!
There are many tragedies like this where families are torn apart. Their reputation is no worse than anyone else's.
"No, we have to be quicker. We need to inform our in-laws about this."
Now, Wang Lai Di no longer felt reluctant to marry her daughter off, and Ye Lan no longer had any anxiety before marriage. Just in case, they just hoped to settle the marriage as soon as possible.
Ye Yu, who had just been reborn, had his memory of them fixed on the red armbands.
Because of this, when the Youth League Office mentioned it, the first person that flashed through her mind was the only acquaintance she had met after traveling through time, also a young man, and the old lady next door who called him "Da Niu Da Niu" every day.
But Ye Yu did not express his guess aloud. He smiled and watched Wang Lai Di and others enthusiastically send off the educated youth office staff, while also busying themselves with Ye Lan's marriage.
Just from that night on, Ye Yu became more concerned about the compound where he lived, and his attention level increased to eight points.
The sound insulation in the compound is really poor.
Ignoring the noise and using his hearing ability that exceeded the limits of the human body to the fullest, Ye Yu gathered a lot of gossip, like a badger that fell into a melon field full of melons.
For example, two grandfathers have been at odds because they were love rivals when they were young, there is news about a temporary worker that has been hidden, a mother-in-law with a good reputation is actually secretly bullying her daughter-in-law, and the most explosive one is probably that someone has been cuckolded for more than ten years and one of the children is not his biological child. Because of the severe crackdown on this practice in recent years, this cuckolding has been temporarily stopped.
The above has little to do with Ye Yu. The most important thing is that her guess turned out to be correct. The Ye family was reported because of the eldest baby grandson of the old lady Niu next door. When he was showing off to his grandmother, Ye Yu heard it.
The cause was actually jealousy?
The fact that Ye Lan was going on a blind date could not be hidden in the compound, as all the neighbors knew about it. Also, because of what happened between Ye Lan and Li Wei before, many people gossiped about her openly or secretly. There was little entertainment at that time, or it was impossible to go crazy on the Internet, so gossiping about other people became a form of unhealthy entertainment.
Old lady Niu is one of the main gossipers, and her eldest grandson has heard his grandmother mention it more than once.
Also, because the Ye sisters were good-looking, many young boys admired them. More than one or two young boys of the same generation who grew up with them in the alley liked the Ye sisters.
Niu Da is one of them, but he is a mean person, so being liked by him is unfortunate. When he heard that Ye Lan was going on a blind date, he felt jealous and reported it this time.
After confirming the enemy, Ye Yu did not take action immediately. After all, it was too easy to put the person in a sack. Niu Da could easily suspect that it was the Ye family member whom he had reported before who did it.
What Niu Dazi thinks is not important, but the Ye family may also have doubts.
But this matter cannot be delayed for long, as she will be going to the countryside soon, and it is unsafe to have a bomb in the yard. This matter must be resolved before she goes to the countryside.
Fortunately, Ye Yu soon discovered that Niu Da and his cronies had offended many people, and many lives had actually been lost indirectly at their hands.
Not only at two or three o'clock in the night, but also during the day, Ye Yu went out a lot under the pretext of buying things to follow them. He found that this group of people had more than one small base, scattered in various sparsely populated locations in and outside the city.
The main purpose of the base is to hide things.
As everyone knows, the red armbands have not only criticized many wealthy families and smashed many valuable items, but among them there are fools who are being fooled and are full of enthusiasm, but there are also those who take advantage of the situation to fish in troubled waters and make a fortune.
This group of people without any moral conscience are the latter. They got a lot of good things from the families who were sent to the farms. These young guys also learned it from some bad guys from their old families. Ye Yu only witnessed how they got along with a middle-aged man with triangular eyes.
But the young people's eyes are not as sharp as those of the old foxes. Many of the things they stole were related to gold and silver, as well as some jade, jadeite and colorful gemstones. They knew nothing about calligraphy and paintings, porcelain and antiques, so they smashed a lot of them.
Ye Yu narrowed his eyes and did not act rashly. He wanted to find out more about these people and then find the right time. It was also because the Ye family was busy taking care of Ye Lan that she could use laziness as an excuse to be so leisurely.
Ye Lan's wedding is approaching step by step.
Ye Hongjun hired a carpenter to make a dowry box for her, and Wang Laidie made her wedding dress overnight.
Ye Yu praised Wang Lai Di's dress-making skills. She only pointed out a few details from the perspective of future generations, and Wang Lai Di was able to understand and adjust them on her own. The wedding dress she sewed was very classic and fashionable from the perspective of future generations.
Wedding dresses never go out of style, and the color red never goes out of style, making people's skin look even whiter than snow.
It looks very beautiful.
Don't underestimate the wisdom of working people.
Ye Lan's wedding was not a grand affair; only relatives from both sides were invited. There were more people from the Ye family, including Ye Cuihua and her husband, and Ye Changcheng and his wife. From Zhao Qinggang's side, there was only an aunt whom he had met before, as well as the matchmaker, the eldest aunt, and her husband's grandson, so there were less than two tables in total.
The wedding process is also very simple. First, the groom comes to pick up the bride, and then a new ceremony is performed at the groom's home. The bride does not kneel to the sky or the ground, but must bow to the parents and portraits.
Then, the bride and groom invite their relatives to a relatively sumptuous wedding banquet at home.
The Zhao family also lived in a large courtyard in the alley, but unlike the Ye family, whose house was allocated by the factory, the house they lived in had a property title and had belonged to the Zhao family for generations.
There are five rooms in the house, and now only four people live in it: Zhao Qinggang, Ye Lan, Zhao Qinggang's mother and his unmarried sister. Zhao Qinggang is not at home most of the year.
"This is really spacious." Wang Lai Di turned around and praised it again and again sincerely.
Isn’t it?
Ye Yu nodded.
After living in a crowded house for a long time, I envy those who have a normal room to themselves.
For a family like this with four people living in five rooms, if Zhao Qinggang had not been working in the army, he would easily be targeted by jealous people and reported to the G Committee. Unless he really had no connections or connections, it is not impossible that he was mistakenly sent to the farm.
Thinking of this, Ye Yu narrowed his eyes. Ye Baoguo, who was sitting opposite him, happened to see this scene and couldn't help shuddering. He suddenly felt that his third sister was becoming more and more terrifying?
Although Ye Lan's wedding was simple, it was no less lively and joyful than many of her future weddings.
The reason lies more with people.
The people attending the wedding were in different mental states. Everyone was smiling, expressing envy and blessings. Even Ye Cuihua, who had previously been pessimistic about Zhao Qinggang, restrained her attitude and said similar auspicious words, praising them for being a perfect match.
Ye Weiguo liked his brother-in-law very much. He would often sneak up to him and ask him questions, which added a lot of laughter to the wedding.
The dishes at the wedding banquet were simple and homely, with only a few slices of meat, but because a lot of ingredients and oil were used, the dishes looked, smelled, and tasted delicious.
Oil and water were very scarce in that era. The Zhao family was mainly engaged in urgent business and did not buy much meat. These alone were bought from the military compound at a high price with the help of favors, which was enough to make people salivate.
Ye Yu doesn't like parties, but he likes wedding banquets, especially the kind where he can eat to his heart's content. The more he eats, the happier the host will be.
It's a rare treat.jpg.
Wang Lai Di is disgusted.jpg.
After the wedding, Ye Lan of course stayed at Zhao's house. Ye Lan said privately that after the marriage report was approved and before the marriage certificate was obtained, she and the groom would sleep separately for the time being. This was not in line with current customs, but it also showed that Zhao Qinggang was indeed a decent person.
When they returned to the Ye family, there was one less person at home. Ye Hongjun, Wang Laidi and the others were a little uncomfortable. Only Ye Yu seemed happy to live in a room alone.
Wang Lai Di didn't know what to say: "You!"
"Hey." Ye Yu was used to separations between life and death. This kind of separation without regrets and tragedy, and they could meet each other anytime, so she really didn't feel any sadness about parting. Maybe she was really a little cold-hearted.
After eating and washing up, everyone went back to their rooms.
Ye Lan is not here, and Ye Yu has his own room, so he really has freedom at night.
Not only can he practice freely in the room, but he also doesn't have to wait until the early morning to go out for a walk. When he goes out for a walk, he doesn't have to worry about Ye Lan waking up and finding an excuse to go to the toilet.
In this era, there are no sky-eye surveillance cameras installed throughout the city, no neon lights or 24-hour stores. In the silence of the night, if you roll around or climb to the roof, basically no one can see you.
Ye Yu simply dressed up and teleported from the room to the corner outside the yard. The upper limit of the first-level supernatural space teleportation was ten meters, and her home happened to be within this range.
As soon as he went out, he couldn't help but perform two space-tearing bursts into the air, followed by a set of punches and kicks, and parkouring at high speed in the city.
It was just like a mouse that fell into a rice jar, full of joy and with all its muscles and bones relaxed.
Ahem, back to the topic.
Ye Yu kept an eye on Niu Da's group for another two days and one night, and finally planned a route. At around midnight on a night when the moon was covered by clouds, she teleported skillfully from her room to the next room.
