It's all over
At the age of seventeen, she worked on the assembly line in Hu Jian for a year and a half without a break throughout the year. After that, Wu Meilai saved some money and began to think about paying for her own schooling. So the money she deposited in Wu Ergou's bank card decreased every month, and finally she deposited it all directly into her WeChat.
Wu Ergou would call her every now and then and call her an ungrateful person. Wu Meilai had no affection for him in the first place, so she just let him scold her and treated it as a dog barking. The sky was high and the emperor was far away, so was she afraid that he would come and bite her?
She was right. Wu Ergou really couldn't come. He was used to being the boss at home, but once he went out, he would become a waste that was looked down upon by others. He didn't want to and didn't dare to leave home. Apart from scolding her and asking her to go home and get married, he had no other way to deal with her.
Half a year passed like this, and Wu Meilai happily got used to this kind of life.
One day, the family made dozens of video calls in a row. Wu Meilai answered the calls nervously. Liu Guiyan's swollen face and eyelids suddenly appeared on the screen. It was unclear whether she was beaten or crying.
Liu Guiyan was crying and wailing over there, sounding extremely pitiful. Wu Meilai was anxious and angry when she heard it, "Run, why don't you run!"
"Where else can I run to? If I'm caught, I'll be beaten even worse."
Wu Meilai was young and energetic after all, so she asked for leave immediately and took a bus back overnight without waiting for approval to take her away.
After two years away from home, the girl who had escaped control fearlessly returned to the trap.
It is true that Liu Guiyan was beaten, it is true that she cried to him, and it is also true that they trapped her in the mountains together.
At eighteen, the most beautiful age ever, matchmakers were everywhere. Every day, Wu Ergou was busy selecting the family that would maximize his profits, while Liu Guiyan discussed with her who would make her life easier.
She tried to leave. The farthest she went was when she was already on a bus to the city, but was stopped by several uncles from her family.
They stood in front of the car door and chatted and laughed with the driver, saying that she was ignorant, had high standards and didn't want to get married, so she secretly took the car into the city.
The driver took a cigarette from an uncle, put it between his ears, opened the car door, and smiled comfortingly: "Many young girls nowadays are indeed selfish."
As the men struggled with Wu Meilai, all the other passengers watched the scene without showing any ill will, and briefly told Wu Meilai, "Your uncles are concerned about you. It will be difficult for a woman to get married if she waits any longer."
During the whole process, no one seemed to see or hear Wu Meilai's resistance and roar. They discussed Wu Meilai's future, but ignored her opinion at the same time.
It's like catching a wild cat, its thoughts, emotions, no, it has none of those things.
Wu Meilai was awakened by the glare from the ceiling light. She tilted her head and found that it had darkened outside the balcony.
I stood up, washed my face, and leaned over the sink to look at myself in the mirror.
His lips were pale, his eyelids were drooping, and he looked haggard.
She should feel fortunate that when she was carried back to the village that day, she and several others went into a restaurant to eat noodles. It was because of this that she had a means of making a living.
Perhaps the owner felt sorry for her and hired her as a kitchen helper at a salary of 5,000 yuan, which was far higher than the local market price, and taught her the skills step by step.
The five thousand was all deposited into Wu Ergou's bank card, so this bastard temporarily put the idea of marrying her off.
The phone in the living room started ringing again.
Wu Meilai was panting. She didn't know what she would say that would make her regret later if she answered Liu Guiyan's call again.
Ten seconds later, the living room returned to silence.
She picked up a towel, dried her face, and went back to lying on the sofa.
The phone rang again.
Wu Meilai waited for ten seconds, but the sound was still ringing. She reached out to touch it exhaustedly, and covered her eyelids with her other hand.
"What else?" she asked coldly.
The phone was very quiet. After a while, a gentle question came: "Are you in a bad mood?"
It’s Zhou Qianling.
Wu Meilai sat up, feeling somewhat bewildered. "I'm sorry, I..."
"It's okay, don't be nervous, I'm not angry."
"Um……"
She did not answer Zhou Qianling's question. She didn't want to tell her about this kind of thing.
Fortunately, Zhou Qianling did not ask any further questions. She should have entered a quiet room, because Wu Meilai heard the sound of the door closing.
Zhou Qianling explained: "I didn't see you at the snack street, so I called to ask."
"Of course, it's also because I miss you and want to hear your voice." She chuckled, and her voice was like agarwood with a calming effect.
Wu Meilai's chest suddenly relaxed, and the corners of her mouth curled up unconsciously. She put the phone close to her ear and asked quietly, "What do you want to hear?"
"Anything."
"I don't know what to say."
"What are you doing?"
"Nothing."
"So, standing or lying down?"
Wu Meilai laughed out loud, "Neither, I'm sitting."
The two chatted about random things for two hours until Zhou Qianling wanted to check the evening self-study discipline, and then they reluctantly hung up the phone.
Wu Meilai leaned against the balcony railing, gazing at the brightly lit teaching building. Little figures were either engrossed in solving problems or playing and laughing in the corridor, full of youthful energy, which made people full of imagination for the future.
Wu Meilai took a deep breath and smiled broadly.
It's all in the past, and her future will get better and better.
She stretched and stretched her muscles, clearing away the gloom.
I'm going to the stall~
——
On this rare holiday, Zhou Qianling finally got to sleep in.
Wu Meilai's biological clock was always punctual. She woke up at eight o'clock. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Zhou Qianling's curled eyelashes. She looked like a motionless butterfly.
She blew gently with evil intentions, and the butterflies fluttered. Zhou Qianling slowly opened his eyes, hummed softly, hugged him tightly, and pecked her on the lips.
"Why did you wake up so early?" His voice was still full of weariness.
Wu Meilai kissed him back and said with a smile, "I'm used to it. Did I wake you up?"
Zhou Qianling closed his eyes and hummed in response, his hand habitually sliding from her waist and back to her buttocks, rubbing them.
…
Wu Meilai stopped laughing and asked calmly, "Zhou Qianling, do you know that you are really ruining the atmosphere by doing this?"
"What is atmosphere? Is it edible?" Zhou Qianling closed his eyes and yawned, then nudged her neck.
In this case, Wu Meilai no longer cared about being a caring girlfriend and slapped her on the butt, "Don't sleep anymore, the sun is shining on your butt."
"Yeah~ I'll sleep a little longer."
"Labor is the most glorious thing. Get up and work."
Today is Labor Day, and the two of them planned it several days ago. First, they will clean the whole house, and then cook a big meal together to reward themselves.
"don't want."
Wu Mei came to stop. She found that her girlfriend was quite cute when she stayed in bed, so she stopped disturbing her. Oh, she changed the way to disturb her.
Zhou Qianling was originally half asleep and half awake, when she suddenly felt something soft on her mouth, like jelly. She opened her mouth and took a bite, and then the jelly flowed into her mouth by itself, running around everywhere as if it were alive. She was so scared that she suddenly opened her eyes.
"Finally woke up?" Wu Meilai smiled evilly.
Zhou Qianling took half a second to react, then hooked his lips around her neck and pressed it against his collarbone. "No, I can't wake up because I'm uncomfortable."
