Chapter 239 Zhou Xuelan's Advance Payment of Wages



“I don’t want to marry into the family in the east of the village. It’s not that I look down on them because they’re from the countryside, nor that I look down on them because they’re pig butchers.”

“Principal Lin, you know me. I have never looked down on people from rural areas.”

At this point, Zhou Xuelan proudly patted her chest and said, "I am a diligent person. I am the kind of person who would never trouble others if I could do it myself."

"I never said I looked down on the butcher in the east of the village, but..."

Zhou Xuelan trailed off, unsure of what to say next. Lin Yifeng, captivated by her story, asked with curiosity, "But what but?"

"If you don't want to marry him, and it's not because of his status or the dowry, then what is it for?"

"Is it because your parents forced you to marry into that family in the east of the village without your consent?"

In 1992, arranged marriages were perfectly normal.

Even a powerful young man like Ye Wuzheng, born into a privileged family, could not escape an arranged marriage.

Ye Wuzheng, a member of the privileged family, was very dissatisfied with Ms. Square, to the point of self-degradation.

It's normal for Zhou Xuelan to be dissatisfied with her arranged marriage.

No, that's not it!

Zhou Xuelan doesn't seem to care about her parents' arranged marriage: "Women will eventually get married, and I don't actually object to my parents finding me a husband."

"but..."

“I really don’t want to marry that butcher in the east of the village.”

Zhou Xuelan talked a lot, but still didn't explain why she didn't want to marry the butcher in the east of the village, so Lin Yifeng could only continue to guess.

"It's because..."

"Is the butcher's child from the east of the village very ugly?"

Appearance is a hurdle that no woman can escape.

Zhou Xuelan probably didn't want to marry into the butcher's family in the east of the village because the boy was ugly.

"No, no!"

"No, not at all!"

"The butcher in the east of the village may not be very good-looking, but that has nothing to do with being ugly."

Zhou Xuelan stammered for a long time before finally saying, "It's just...it's just..."

"The butcher's child in the east of the village...snoring!"

"And the sound was extremely loud, almost like thunder!"

Hearing Zhou Xuelan say this, Lin Yifeng's gossipy nature was immediately ignited.

He stared wide-eyed at Zhou Xuelan, who was sitting at the corner of the bed, his face full of curiosity:

"Teacher Zhou..."

"You actually slept with him!"

"Ptooey! Ptooey! Ptooey!"

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Zhou Xuelan quickly explained, "No, no, we didn't sleep!"

"It was that time they came to our house, drank too much, and rested at our house."

"Then I heard him snoring like thunder coming from the room where he was resting."

Zhou Xuelan said this with a embarrassed look on her face: "I thought all men snore, and that they all snore so loudly it shook the heavens!"

“My dad snores very loudly, my brother snores too, and the snoring of the family in the east of the village is even worse; it could shake the house down.”

"But I didn't expect..."

Zhou Xuelan looked at Lin Yifeng: "You don't even snore!"

Lin Yifeng doesn't snore.

He is young and not fat, so he sleeps very quietly and doesn't snore or grind his teeth.

Bai Yejin really liked sleeping with Lin Yifeng, especially when Lin Yifeng held her from the side.

I don't snore!

"Wait, Mr. Zhou, you're only just realizing I don't snore?"

Lin Yifeng felt something was off when Zhou Xuelan told him he didn't snore.

"I'm not Mr. Bai, how would I know if you snore or not!"

"But you stayed at my house!"

"When you stayed at my house, did you know if I snore while I slept?"

"have no idea!"

Zhou Xuelan shook her head: "When I lived at your house, all I knew was that you and Teacher Bai were not honest with each other, and you were affectionate in front of me every day."

"How would I notice if you snore or not!"

“...”

Okay!

Lin Yifeng really did treat Zhou Xuelan as if she were invisible at the time.

This wasn't Lin Yifeng's intention; it's just that he and Bai Yejin initially met on a diesel tricycle.

The space in the diesel tricycle was too small, and he couldn't avoid Zhou Xuelan, who was right next to him.

This led Lin Yifeng to believe that since Zhou Xuelan knew everything, there was no need for her to deliberately avoid him.

Zhou Xuelan didn't continue the topic of Lin Yifeng and Bai Yejin's intimacy. She said with a troubled expression, "Principal Lin!"

“If I hadn’t known you didn’t snore, I might have listened to my parents and married the butcher’s son from the east of the village.”

"but..."

"Now you want me to marry him? I'm absolutely unwilling."

“I can accept that he has never been to school.”

“I can accept that he has an ordinary appearance.”

“I can accept that he smokes, drinks, and even hits women occasionally.”

"But I... really can't stand his snoring, which could practically shake the house down."

Lin Yifeng was shocked again: "He hits women?"

"kindness!"

"beat!"

"It's a family tradition to beat women. His father beats them, his uncle beats them, and his great-uncle beats them too!"

Zhou Xuelan remained calm, seemingly unconcerned that hitting a woman was nothing unusual.

"Speak!"

Lin Yifeng patted his pocket generously: "Teacher Zhou, how much salary do you want in advance!"

"Three thousand!"

"???"

Lin Yifeng looked puzzled. Zhou Xuelan's monthly salary was 120 yuan, plus a vocational school student subsidy of more than 20 yuan.

Even if Zhou Xuelan didn't eat, drink, buy sanitary napkins, or cover any other expenses...
