Li Qiumei and Yang Huaihua had already discussed it. She would be responsible for keeping an eye on Lin Zhiya, and Yang Huaihua would be responsible for keeping an eye on Zhu Zhu.
They wanted to see how these two women managed to stuff the medicine into the body right under their noses.
Lin Zhiya and Zhu Zhu sat at the table chatting as if nothing had happened, and Li Qiumei and the others had to calm down and wait.
It was already dark and the light bulbs in the yard were on.
Li Qiumei saw that the elderly people, women and children at other tables had left one after another.
Only the table at the edge was left, where a few men were still drinking.
It seemed like someone was drunk and making a lot of noise.
Cheng Zhiqian wanted to go to the toilet, and Yang Yingsong also stood up shakily. He said with a thick tongue: "Captain, I'll help you go."
Cheng Zhiqian also looked drunk and ordered him to sit down: "You've had too much to drink, I can go by myself."
Yang Yingsong put his arm around Cheng Zhiqian's shoulders and said, "I'm not drunk!
If you don’t believe me, ask Qiu Mei.”
Zhu Zhu glared at Li Qiumei fiercely.
Li Qiumei held her forehead and said, "Alas, Zhu Zhu is so jealous for no apparent reason.
Yang Cheche is drunk. How are we going to take him away later?
The worst thing is that it’s hard to tell whether Cheng Zhiqian is really drunk or just pretending?
Li Qiumei couldn't help but feel anxious.
Cheng Zhiqian and Yang Yingsong talked and tugged at each other, and the two of them decided to go together.
Yang Yingsong was overjoyed: "Qiumei, we two are going to go out for a while, you sit and wait, we...we will...come back soon."
Zhu Zhu quickly took out a flashlight and said, "Let me light the way for you."
Yang Yingsong took it and said, "I can do it myself."
The two of them went out arm in arm.
When Li Qiumei saw Zhu Zhu's elder brother and another man, she stood up and sent the drunk man home. The remaining two men came over with wine.
Wu Jun and Lin Wei also got drunk and started asking for drinks.
The man in his thirties with a face full of flesh stood opposite Li Qiumei and said to Lin Wei and the others, "Come on, brothers, have a drink."
Lin Wei and Wu Jun toasted with the two men, and everyone asked them to sit down.
Zhu Zhu stood up and said, "Fourth brother, come and sit here."
Lin Zhiya also quickly stood up and gave up the stool.
Li Qiumei saw that the man who came with the fourth brother was a shifty old man with a pair of small eyes that looked at the women present.
She felt a little regretful that she had listened to Cheng Zhiqian and stayed to take advantage of his plan. She should have run away in time.
Zhu Zhu's sister came over and said, "Sister, the bed hasn't been made yet. Can you help me make it?"
Zhu Zhu smiled and asked Li Qiumei: "Qiumei, how about you two come and help us make the bed?
They'll have a drink and then they'll have a rest."
Yang Huaihua stepped forward and said, "It's enough for me to go with you."
Lin Zhiya glanced at Li Qiumei and said, "I'll go help too."
After saying that, he turned and walked upstairs.
Li Qiumei smiled at Zhu Zhu and said, "Let's go."
The four people came upstairs. There were three rooms on the left and two on the right.
Yang Huaihua muttered, "Is this enough to live in? Where does your family live?"
Zhu Zhu pointed to the old house behind: "My parents are staying in the old house tonight.
These five rooms should be enough for our group of people."
Li Qiumei looked at the top of the wooden cabinet in Zhu Zhu's parents' room, where a dozen quilts were neatly stacked.
In this era, this one reason alone is enough for more than 80 to 90 percent of rural families.
"Zhu Zhu, your family is well off." Li Qiumei praised sincerely.
Zhu Zhu pulled a quilt over and said, "They are just worthless things.
You two go and prepare the carpet for the two guest rooms on the right first, and Xiaoya and I will come over from the left."
Li Qiumei and Yang Huaihua went to the right holding the quilt.
Yang Huaihua pushed open the doors of the two rooms and took a look around: "Qiumei, tonight, the two of us will sleep in the room at the far end.
You see, if we climb out of the window, jump onto the roof next to us, and walk along the roof, which is very close to the wall, we... "
Li Qiumei interrupted her: "The guest should follow the host's wishes. When the time comes, the host will arrange where to sleep.
Besides, we may not live there.
You’d better make the bed quickly, as you have to keep an eye on him later.
Come quickly and pull up the sheets."
The bed had not been made yet. When Li Qiumei was about to get the quilt, she found that Lin Zhiya had disappeared from the room on the left.
Only Zhu Zhu and her sister were making the bed.
Li Qiumei was anxious: "Zhu Zhu, where did Lin Zhiya go again?
It seems she won't even help make the bed."
Zhu Zhu smiled and said, "Xiaoya, go downstairs and drink some water and come back up."
Yang Huaihua came over and told Li Qiumei: "Qiumei, go downstairs and bring me a glass of water.
Li Qiumei hurried downstairs and met Lin Zhiya who was going upstairs on the stairs.
"Li Qiumei, your nose is really sharp."
She approached Li Qiumei and said, "Are you scared? It's too late to be scared now!"
Li Qiumei clenched her fists. If she wasn't afraid of the wrong timing, she would definitely make Lin Zhiya roll down the stairs.
Li Qiumei came downstairs, but Cheng Zhiqian and Yang Yingsong had not returned yet.
It’s over, it’s over. These two people are really drunk. Now it’s really true what Lin Zhiya said that it’s too late to be afraid.
Li Qiumei was thinking about whether to tell Yang Huaihua to run away quickly. As for Cheng Zhiqian and the other two, there was no need to worry about them. It was their fault for not having a good memory.
Zhu Yanling came over: "Sister, can you accompany me to the bathroom?"
Li Qiumei agreed, and the two of them could just be companions.
She also wanted to go to the bathroom to see what had happened to Cheng Zhiqian and the others.
She went to the woodpile and got a stick: "I'm afraid of mice, so I feel more at ease with a stick."
Zhu Yanling smiled and said, "Although I grew up in the countryside, I'm afraid too."
She took a flashlight and went out with Li Qiumei. When they arrived at the gate, it was quiet all around.
Zhu Yanling shook the flashlight in her hand and said, "Sister, only one person can enter the restroom.
You wait here for me, I'll go in first."
Li Qiumei responded, "Okay."
Cheng Zhiqian and the other two were not in the bathroom.
"Could something really have happened?"
Li Qiumei was a little anxious.
Zhu Yanling came out of the bathroom, and as Li Qiumei just entered, she heard the sound of the door closing.
She ran out quickly, and Zhu Yanling had already gone in.
It was Lin Zhiya's doing again. She asked Zhu Yanling to lure her out. It seemed that the grocery store owner had come.
Li Qiumei clenched the wooden stick in her hand and quickly hid behind the wall and corner of the neighbor's house on the right.
Where on earth did these damn Cheng Zhiqian and Yang Yingsong go?
Four men came over with flashlights.
"Third brother, I just saw two people come out and one went back.
That one is in the toilet."
"Shh, keep your voice down."
The door opened again and Yang Huaihua walked out.
