Mrs. Zhao and Lian Rongrong were both very angry. They didn't even buy any vegetables and went to Jiang Yue to complain.
Jiang Yue had been up for a while. She was washing a bunch of leeks and preparing leek pancakes for breakfast. When she saw Sister Zhao and Lian Rongrong running over angrily, she was very surprised. "Sister Zhao, Rongrong, didn't you say you were going to buy groceries? Why are you back again?"
The chives were brought over by Mrs. Zhao early in the morning, and she said they were freshly harvested from the vegetable garden.
Mrs. Zhao and Lian Rongrong originally wanted to ask Jiang Yue to go shopping for groceries together, but Ningning was still asleep and Gu Ye had gone for a run. Jiang Yue was worried about Ningning being home alone, so she let the two go first.
"Jiang Yue, you don't know, but as soon as we left the family compound, we met a woman who asked us if we knew you and then started saying bad things about you!" Lian Rongrong recounted what had just happened.
"Speaking badly of me?" Jiang Yue raised her eyebrows and asked, "What does that woman look like?"
"She had two braids and looked okay, but her face was sallow and she was as thin as a bamboo pole." Mrs. Zhao described her.
Jiang Yue had actually guessed that it was Pei Xueyun. There were a few people in the entire family compound who would say bad things about her, but everyone in the family compound knew that Sister Zhao and Lian Rongrong had a good relationship with her, and they would not be stupid enough to say bad things about her to Sister Zhao and Lian Rongrong in person.
Moreover, the appearance described by Sister Zhao matched the Pei Xueyun that Jiang Yue saw last night.
"What did she say about me?" Jiang Yue narrowed her eyes. She was still a little afraid of Pei Xueyun. After all, she was the heroine of the original book.
Lian Rongrong and Mrs. Zhao looked at each other, somewhat hesitantly.
"It doesn't matter, just tell me!" Jiang Yue was also very curious. They just met last night, what bad things would Pei Xueyun say about her?
Lian Rongrong then repeated what Pei Xueyun said about Jiang Yue's bad behavior and that she had been dating a boy since high school.
"That's all?" Jiang Yue asked.
"I didn't let her say anything later, Rongrong and I scolded her and she ran away!" Sister Zhao was angry when she talked about it, "She looks like a human being, but she doesn't speak human language! Bah!"
"Sister-in-law, Rongrong, thank you!" Jiang Yue was still very touched that Sister-in-law Zhao and Lian Rongrong could defend her like this, but at the same time, a thoughtful expression appeared on her face.
I saw her still there last night, and today she's spreading rumors everywhere. Is Pei Xueyun so impatient?
Huh? Something seems to be wrong——
"Oh no, it's bad!" At this time, Mrs. Zhao suddenly slapped her thigh.
Jiang Yue just had a thought in her mind, but it was interrupted. She and Lian Rongrong looked at Sister Zhao, "What's wrong, sister-in-law?"
Mrs. Zhao said nervously, "I don't know where this psychopath came from. She says bad things about you, Jiang Yue, to everyone she meets. What if these words get to Gu Ye's ears?"
Lian Rongrong also became nervous when she heard this. "I should have grabbed that woman and slapped her hard a few times to stop her from talking nonsense! Now I don't know where to find her!"
Jiang Yue was very calm, "It's okay, the mouth is on someone else's body. If she deliberately spreads rumors, even if she doesn't say it today, she will say it tomorrow!"
"What if Gu Ye hears and misunderstands you?" Mrs. Zhao didn't want Jiang Yue and Gu Ye's relationship to have any problems.
Jiang Yue sneered, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, Gu Ye is not so incompetent!"
Lian Rongrong was shocked, "Jiang Yue, do you trust Gu Ye so much?"
Jiang Yue smiled and said, "Of course! The most basic thing between husband and wife is trust. If Gu Ye believed just a few words of gossip from someone, then we can't live like this!"
Gu Ye came back from jogging and walked to the door of his house. He heard voices in the yard, so he slowed down his pace. He just happened to hear Sister Zhao say that he misunderstood Jiang Yue. He continued to listen, and after hearing Jiang Yue's words, something seemed to vibrate in his chest.
Mrs. Zhao and Lian Rongrong came here to remind Jiang Yue to be careful of that psychotic woman. Now that they had been reminded, they had to go buy groceries and were about to leave.
Jiang Yue walked the two to the door. When the half-closed gate was opened, the three saw Gu Ye coming over.
"Gu Ye, you're back!" Jiang Yue saw that Gu Ye's face was covered with sweat and took out a handkerchief to wipe it off.
Gu Ye had just heard Mrs. Zhao and Lian Rongrong were leaving, and he didn't want to be caught eavesdropping outside the door, so he deliberately took a few steps back and pretended to have just come back.
At this moment, his eyes were full of tenderness as he looked at Jiang Yue.
Mrs. Zhao and Lian Rongrong couldn't help but smile when they saw the couple being so intimate as if no one was around.
Gu Ye smiled at Sister Zhao and Lian Rongrong, and then said to Jiang Yue, "Why don't you invite Sister-in-law and Sister-in-law to come in and sit down?"
Mrs. Zhao smiled and said, "No, no, we still have to go buy groceries. Come over and sit down when you're free!"
Lian Rongrong winked at Jiang Yue ambiguously, "My sister-in-law and I won't bother you anymore!"
Jiang Yue waved her hands shamelessly, "Bye!"
Lian Rongrong's eyes lit up, "Jiang Yue, you even know English?"
Jiang Yue: “…” She just said goodbye, was it necessary for Lian Rongrong to be so surprised?
But Jiang Yue still nodded, "Yes! I'm good at English!"
After seeing off Mrs. Zhao and Lian Rongrong, Gu Ye held Jiang Yue's hand and they entered the yard. Jiang Yue looked at Gu Ye with a smile on her face after he came back today, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Gu Ye, did you go out and pick up money today?"
"Huh? What money are you picking up?" Gu Ye raised his eyebrows, not understanding what Jiang Yue meant.
Jiang Yue stretched out two index fingers and pressed against the corners of Gu Ye's upturned mouth, "Look at your upturned mouth. If it's not the money you picked up, what good thing made you so happy?"
Gu Ye held Jiang Yue's fingers, placed them on his lips and kissed them, "There are so many things that can make me happy!"
"For example?" Jiang Yue asked curiously.
Gu Ye was usually extremely serious and rarely smiled. Sometimes she couldn't tell whether he was happy or unhappy.
"secret!"
Seeing that Gu Ye was still keeping the secret, Jiang Yue was immediately dissatisfied and pulled Gu Ye's hand and said in a coquettish tone, "Hey, Gu Ye, just tell me!"
"Ahem, excuse me, I forgot to take my vegetable basket!" Lian Rongrong's voice came while she was trying not to laugh.
Jiang Yue looked back and saw Lian Rongrong sneaking out with a basket of vegetables, her shoulders shaking suspiciously.
"I didn't see anything! Jiang Yue, please continue!" Lian Rongrong even kindly helped close the gate.
Jiang Yue: “…”
At the same time, at Political Commissar Tang’s home.
Pei Xueyun was inexplicably scolded by the two women and felt very unhappy. She originally wanted to find someone else, but there were many soldiers jogging on the road at that time in the morning, and she didn't see any family members. Tang Luo happened to come to call her, so she came back.
Tang Dai had also found Secretary Tang who was watching the soldiers drill outside the training ground.
"Teacher Xu, is there anything you want me to come back for?" Pei Xueyun noticed that the atmosphere was wrong as soon as she entered the room. Political Commissar Tang and Party Secretary Tang were both there.
"It's like this, Pei Zhiqing. After spending these two days together, I found that your eating and living habits are different from ours. And as you can see, there are many people in my family, and there is no extra room for you to stay, so I discussed with Teacher Xu, and the secretary brother is going back to Shandong Province today, and you should go back with him."
Political Commissar Tang had already spoken very politely, saving face for Pei Xueyun.
"This ten dollars is a token of my appreciation for your hard work in making this trip." Xu Fen took out a big Unity note and put it on the table.
