Chapter 29 Be careful
The two went to a state-owned restaurant. Li Ruolan wanted to eat dumplings, so she ordered a serving of dumplings, while Deng Minghao had chicken noodle soup.
After they finished eating, they took the list and went to the photo studio to pick up the previous photos.
The owner of the photo studio saw the two of them coming only at this time, but he didn't say anything. After all, the busy farming season had just passed, so he understood.
"Master, do you have a photo frame?" Li Ruolan looked at the photo of the two of them and thought it was pretty nice. She was going to put it in a frame and hang it on the wall when she got home.
The master from the photo studio took out a photo frame and helped Li Ruolan put the photo into it. Deng Minghao paid the money, and then the two of them left the photo studio.
"Next, let's go to the scrap yard and buy some old newspapers or something, and paste them on the walls of the house, otherwise they will always be covered with dust." Li Ruolan said to Deng Minghao.
Li Ruolan actually didn't want to use old newspapers to paste walls, because it really didn't look good, but now every household in the countryside uses old newspapers to paste walls, and they couldn't be an exception.
After entering the scrapyard, Li Ruolan wanted to be like the protagonists in other period novels and find tables, chairs and benches that might contain valuable items.
But after looking around, I didn't find anything. I guess there might be some, but they must have been taken away before they were sent here.
The two of them bought a lot of old newspapers without spending a penny. In addition to the scrap yard, they also went around and bought whatever they needed.
When it was time to gather, the two of them returned to the gathering point with large and small bags. When Deng Minghao saw people, he took out some fruit candies from his pocket with a smile and gave two or three to each of them.
"Li Zhiqing and I are hosting a wedding banquet today. We don't have the financial resources to invite all of you to come. We can only give you some more wedding candies to sweeten your mouths."
These fruit candies were all in the space. Li Ruolan took a lot of them and put them in her pocket. Now when she met Guihua and the other aunts, as well as Wang Xiumei and Yang Dan, she grabbed a handful for each of them.
"The aunts have helped me a lot at work. I am very grateful to them. Of course, I also want to thank you two. You must keep this candy. It's a little gift from me."
Aunt Guihua and the others did not hesitate to take all the candies, and each of them said a few words of blessing.
The aunt who looked a bit mean before only got two candies. When she saw Li Ruolan giving a big handful to Aunt Guihua and the others, she curled her lips and wanted to come over to say a few words.
As a result, Aunt Guihua and Aunt Cuihua glared at her, and the aunt immediately didn't dare to come over.
After putting the purchased things in the car, many people were looking at them, wanting to see what was in the two people's backpacks.
But there were also those with sharp noses who smelled the odor of large intestine and immediately started to make fun of it.
"Why, when you invite people to dinner, are you inviting them to eat large intestines?"
Deng Minghao smiled and said: "My specialty is making large intestines. When I was young, I couldn't afford meat, so I could only eat large intestines to satisfy my cravings.
Later, I thought about it and finally made the large intestine delicious.”
The person curled her lips when she heard this. She couldn't afford meat at home before and had to eat pig intestines every day. It seemed that her family was indeed poor. Although her family was also poor, they had never eaten pig intestines.
The way back was relatively quiet, and no one was talking about anything.
After getting off the carriage, Uncle Wang said he wanted to go home to feed the horses some hay and would come back later to take Deng Minghao to the next village.
Deng Minghao thought that he had set four traps yesterday but forgot to collect them this morning, so he had to go and collect them now, so he nodded and agreed.
When the two of them were carrying their backpacks back home, they happened to see Qin Wan coming back on a bicycle with a lot of bags and stuff hanging on it.
Li Ruolan was shocked: "Could it be that you bought this bicycle?"
Qin Wan shook her head: "Of course not, it belongs to Lu Yunxiao's family. I just borrowed it for a while."
Lu Yunxiao used to be a soldier and received a lot of allowances, so he could naturally afford a bicycle. He was also assigned a job after he was discharged from the army.
However, this job was taken away by his elder brother. Of course, Lu Yunxiao was no pushover. Although his elder brother was doing this job, his elder brother had to give him ten yuan every month.
Otherwise he would report it, as his job as a veteran was taken away by his family.
Lu Yunxiao's parents were a little biased. They scolded and beat him every day, but seeing that Lu Yunxiao was determined to get the ten dollars, they finally agreed.
So now Lu Yunxiao still doesn't even have to work, but he can get ten yuan for free every month. In addition, every time he goes to the mountains, he can hunt some prey, and then have someone take it to the black market to sell, so he has saved a lot of money.
Li Ruolan was relieved, and then she said, "Uncle Wang will come over and take Deng Minghao to the next door to buy a large water vat and some vegetable jars. Do you want some? If you do, let them bring them back to you."
Qin Wan nodded immediately: "Yes, bring back two large jars and two kimchi jars." Then she took out ten yuan and gave it to Deng Minghao.
Deng Minghao took it and went to the river to retrieve the traps. He found a lot of fish and shrimps in them. There was also a trap that caught two very big eels.
After putting the cage into the space, Deng Minghao came back and saw Uncle Wang driving a carriage to find him. Deng Minghao greeted him and got in the carriage, and the two went to the next village.
As for Li Ruolan, after putting her things away, she went next door to find Qin Wan.
"How have you and Lu Yunxiao been getting along during this period?" Li Ruolan asked curiously.
Qin Wan thought for a moment and said, "We get along pretty well. Lu Yunxiao really suits my taste. He's also pretty good in other areas. He can always catch a lot of prey."
Li Ruolan knew that the two of them got along pretty well, so she nodded and said nothing more. If Xu Tao hadn't been around in this life, Qin Wan and Lu Yunxiao would definitely be together.
“You must be careful when you are alone at home, and be sure to shout for help if you encounter any problems.
You are a girl, and you built your own house to live in. In the eyes of others, you are a hot commodity. Not only the people in the educated youth center have their eyes on you, but even many unmarried people in the village have their eyes on you.
If you and Lu Yunxiao are on good terms, you might as well get over it sooner rather than later. Otherwise, now that the busy farming season is over, I’m afraid someone might do something to you.”
Nowadays, it is very easy to marry a girl. You can marry her as long as you destroy her innocence.
There are many rural men who cannot find wives, so they go to see which girls are pretty, then take them into the cornfield or woods, and then marry them.
It doesn’t matter if I can’t afford the bride price. My innocence is ruined, so I have no choice but to marry him.
Such things are very common and hard to guard against. Qin Wan does have the ability to protect herself now, but as long as she doesn't get married, these people will follow her around every day and try to destroy her.
