Chapter 88 Wang Qian Kneels
Jiang Chen turned and looked at Ye Rou, their eyes met.
Ye Rou's heart was beating nervously.
Jiang Chen suddenly smiled.
He smiled nonchalantly, his tone even more casual: "Would I be jealous of a little monster like you?"
Ye Rou lowered her eyes in disappointment.
Jiang Chen put his arm around her shoulders and said, "Let's go back."
Both of them were silent.
Ye Rou forced herself to cheer up and asked, "Isn't Wang Qiaohe Jiang Weiguo's wife?"
Jiang Chen was surprised by her sharpness. Seeing that she wanted to know, he said, "Jiang Weiguo's wife passed away. Wang Qiaohe is his wife's cousin and is staying at his house."
Ye Rou nodded and wanted to ask how the stone was thrown, but seeing that Jiang Chen looked tired, she didn't ask any more questions.
It was almost evening when the two returned to the village.
——
Ye Rou went back and drew the reward. As she looked expectantly, the black pointer finally did not stop at the pink beauty reward, but the golden reward [Five Senses Enhancement].
The world became clearer in Ye Rou's eyes, her vision was better, her hearing was clearer... What made Ye Rou even happier was that her sense of touch had improved, allowing her to take pulses more accurately.
Jiang Chen was very busy for the next few days, and came back every day covered in dust, as if he had been digging in the dirt all day.
Ye Rou made breakfast and returned to the room. Seeing Jiang Chen still sleeping, she did not wake him up and went to the clinic with her bag.
The door of the clinic was pushed open. Ye Rou looked up and saw Zheng Xiu. She blinked and said, "Auntie, why are you here?"
Zheng Xiu's expression was extremely pale, and her eyes were filled with panic. After a moment of silence, she stretched out her hand to Ye Rou and said in a hoarse voice, "Xiao Rou, please help me take a look."
Ye Rou put away the smile on her face and took her aunt's pulse with a serious expression.
When she felt the familiar pulse, Ye Rou's eyes trembled and she withdrew her hand.
Zheng Xiu smiled bitterly: "I'm pregnant, right?"
Ye Rou nodded.
Zheng Xiu blinked blankly, then faced Ye Rou and said awkwardly, "It's shameful that you're still pregnant at such an old age."
Ye Rou didn't know how to react.
Zheng Xiu patted Ye Rou's hand and simply said, "Xiao Rou, can you keep this a secret for me first? I need to go back and think about it."
Ye Rou agreed and watched her aunt leave.
The clinic became quiet, and Ye Rou continued to look through the medical records at hand, but at a much slower pace.
Suddenly, the sound of drums and the music of birds paying homage to the phoenix played by suona came from outside the door.
Ye Rou looked up in confusion. Whose wedding was this?
She stood up and went out to see, only to see a tractor with a wedding character pasted on it, rumbling towards her.
When they got near the clinic, Ye Rou saw it clearly.
Wang Qian, dressed in red, was sitting in the truck bed with a big red flower on her head. Gu Huai, also dressed in red, was sitting next to her.
Ye Rou remembered that Wang Qian came to her a few days ago and invited her to the wedding.
Today is Wang Qian and Gu Huai’s wedding day.
She had no plans to attend the wedding banquet and turned around to go back to the clinic.
Wang Qian suddenly called her: "Ye Rou!"
Ye Rou frowned, only to see Wang Qian stop the tractor and be helped down from the tractor by Gu Huai with her big belly.
Wang Qian's sudden action caught everyone by surprise. When the music stopped, everyone looked confused.
Gu Huai supported Wang Qian and walked in front of Ye Rou.
Wang Qian smiled and said, "Ye Rou, I asked you to attend my wedding last time and you refused, but we were good friends before. I still want you to come to my wedding and witness my happiness."
She spoke sincerely, and the expressions of the onlookers were slightly moved.
"..." Even after the last falling out, Wang Qian was still able to pretend nothing had happened. Ye Rou admired her thick skin, but she didn't intend to cooperate and directly refused: "No."
She turned around and went back to the clinic.
Wang Qian choked up behind her and said, "Ye Rou, do you hate me so much?"
Ye Rou raised her eyebrows slightly. Wang Qian was about to argue with her.
She turned around and said to Wang Qian: "You know why you come to me and make me uncomfortable."
Wang Qian was crying so hard that tears were streaming down her face. Even so, she spoke loudly, trying to make sure that everyone around her could hear her clearly.
"Ye Rou, I know I was wrong that day, and I apologized to you. I was too scared at the time, and I didn't mean to blame you."
Her tone was pitiful, and the onlookers began to speak up for her.
"Ye Rou, just forgive her."
"Yes, and Miss Ye didn't suffer any loss that day, so we won't end up estranged forever, right?"
"These two girls used to have such a good relationship, they were inseparable."
…
When being soft doesn't work, they resort to moral blackmail.
"Your makeup is smudged from crying." Ye Rou pointed at Wang Qian's face expressionlessly, "It's so ugly."
Wang Qian's expression froze and she dared not cry anymore.
There was no waterproof makeup at that time. The bride's makeup was already thick, and it was all washed away after crying, leaving her face covered in a mixture of white, black and powder.
Gu Huai took a look, let go of Wang Qian's hand with disgust, and stared at Ye Rou's face openly.
How come he didn't know Ye Rou was so beautiful before?
It's really a top-notch product.
What a pity.
Ye Rou looked at him coldly: "Your gaze makes me sick, can you take it back?"
Gu Huai was humiliated in public and his face suddenly darkened.
He yelled at Wang Qian impatiently: "Are you going to leave or not?"
Wang Qian was yelled at by Gu Huai and hated Ye Rou even more. She decided to clear her reputation in the village by stepping on Ye Rou.
She didn't care about her makeup being stained by tears. She fell to her knees and cried, "Ye Rou, I apologize to you. I was wrong. Please forgive me. I just hope you can come to my wedding."
When she knelt, everyone looked at Ye Rou with a different expression.
"It's someone's wedding day, why is Ye Rou so excessive?"
"It's been so long since this happened, and you're still holding on to it. Zhang Lan is right. Ye Rou is good in every way, but she's petty."
…
Ye Rou smiled coldly. She looked docile, but in fact she was rebellious. The more others forced her, the less she would agree.
"I don't……"
Before she could finish her words, the alarm of eating melons rang in her head.
Wang Qian listened to what the people around her said and smiled smugly. That was it. Ye Rou was always unreasonable and she was not wrong.
But Ye Rou suddenly smiled.
Wang Qian watched as a smile appeared on Ye Rou's face, so beautiful that it was hard to look away.
She agreed: "Okay, I'll go."
Wang Qian widened her eyes, and a chill ran down her spine for no apparent reason.
——
Ye Rou followed people into Wang's house. As soon as she came in, she attracted many people's attention.
Zhao Cui and Zhou Nian were sitting together. When they saw her, they immediately waved excitedly, "Ye Rou, this way!"
Ye Rou happily walked over and sat down next to them.
Everyone's eyes followed suit.
Zhang Chunsheng was also looking at Ye Rou. He looked at Ye Rou's charming face and watery skin, and said to Zheng Xiu, who was sitting next to him, with a smile: "Girls really change a lot when they grow up. Our niece is getting more and more beautiful."
Zheng Xiu's face was pale and her expression was flustered. She didn't notice the strangeness in his tone and nodded perfunctorily.
Zhang Chunsheng pinched her wrist unhappily and said in a gloomy voice, "What's wrong with you?"
Zheng Xiu endured the pain, then looked up and smiled meekly: "It's just a stomachache."
Zhang Chunsheng thought about how he had kicked her in the stomach last night because she had put too much salt in her cooking. His suspicions suddenly subsided. He loosened his grip and said in a friendly tone, "I was too excited last night. Eating too much salt is not good for your health. There can't be a next time, understand?"
Zheng Xiu nodded nervously.
The wedding was lively, but everyone was there to laugh at the joke, and anyone who saw Wang Qian's belly would say something.
Gu Huai was an educated youth who went to the countryside. No one came to his home, and the Wang family was the one who took care of him.
Everyone in the village was laughing at Gu Huai for being a live-in son-in-law. One of them was drunk and said a few sarcastic words to Gu Huai.
Gu Huai was very concerned about his reputation, so he turned his face away and went to the backyard, and never came out to entertain the guests again.
Zhao Cui ate too much and wanted to go to the toilet.
It was dark, and she was still pregnant, so Zhou Nian and Ye Rou accompanied her.
After turning the corner, Ye Rou's hearing became exceptionally good since her five senses were enhanced. She grabbed the other two people and made a gesture. Zhou Nian and Zhao Cui stopped in confusion and followed Ye Rou to look.
Three heads were stacked in the corner.
I saw Gu Huai, who was wearing a wedding dress, hugging a woman and kissing her passionately.
