Chapter 140 Bai Xue, are you crazy?
Huang Ying's eyes widened, and she even circled Bai Xue a few times, still unable to understand. She stamped her feet and asked, "Why? Why is this happening? Aren't you two very much in love? Why would you want to ruin her wedding dress?"
They've been so good to you.
Chen Lan also said with dissatisfaction: "Do you know that the good life you are living now is all given to you by others?"
I treat you like a younger sister!
We came together. You have a single room, but what do I have?
Zhou has been good enough to you, why did you do this?
Seeing everyone's expressions, Bai Xue suddenly smiled: "Yes, why would I treat her like that?"
possible……
Maybe it's greed? You think she's good to me, but I don't think it's enough! She's good to you too, isn't she?
Why is she only nice to me?
Why doesn't she give me everything?
Why?
"It's not that they're being sincere!"
After Bai Xue finished speaking, everyone was stunned!
Huang Ying glared at her: "Bai Xue, are you crazy? Zhou treats you like a younger sister, do you think you can take advantage of her?"
You're insane!
Chen Lan was also extremely disgusted: "How could you be this kind of person? We all saw it. Zhou Ye treated you so well, and you are simply insatiable!"
The atmosphere was strange!
Everyone's saying bad things about Snow White!
Bai Xue just smiled and looked at everyone: "What can you do if you're not satisfied? Go find Zhou Ye and scold me."
Let's see if she comes looking for trouble.
"Look, I'll live in this house and enjoy life to the fullest, making you all furious!"
No one could accept the changes in Bai Xue!
With a snort, Huang Ying led everyone away.
Bai Xue's tears fell down in a steady stream. "Sister Zhou, I'm sorry. That's why everyone hates me. Are you happy now?"
I'm sorry, but I know you did nothing wrong!
So I punished myself. Are you happy?
Yes, you have to make everyone hate you and despise you to atone for your sins!
Actually, Zhou didn't really hate Bai Xue; she had her reasons, didn't she?
If he had known that Yue Yong was Bai Xue's father, would he still have done that? Probably! Zhou Ye sat on the rock, looking into the distance.
Perhaps I am destined to be unworthy of family ties in this lifetime!
Parents are, grandpa is, and so is Bai Xue...
What about the Xie family?
Now that I've used the Xie family, how can I extricate myself?
This is another difficult problem!
I didn't feel like eating lunch, so I just sat there.
Are you alright?
Xie Jianshe suddenly appeared beside him.
"You... what are you doing here?"
Xie Jianshe laughed and said, "I grew up here and I know these places very well. Wherever you appear, I'll find you if I pay attention."
As he spoke, he put down the basket on his back and took out a live rooster from it.
Zhou looked at him in surprise: "You...you took a chicken up the mountain?"
Xie Jianshe chuckled twice: "Wild pheasants are only hunted as a last resort; domesticated chickens taste better!"
How was the roast chicken?
"My cooking skills are pretty good!"
Looking at Xie Jianshe's expression, Zhou Ye smiled and said, "Okay!"
"hehe……"
From the moment Xie Jianshe met Zhou Ye, he neither asked nor said anything. He seemed to simply be roasting chicken for Zhou Ye.
The aroma grew stronger, and Zhou couldn't help but salivate.
"Does it smell good? You can have both chicken drumsticks later!"
Xie Jianshe looked at Zhou Ye with amusement and said affectionately.
Zhou Ye looked at the chicken leg and temporarily forgot about all the messy things.
She finished the chicken leg in one go, then watched Xie Jianshe eat the rest of the food, and said leisurely, "Why didn't you ask me?"
Xie Jianshe chuckled: "What do you want to ask? If you want to tell me, you will! You've been sitting here alone for so long, you naturally want to be alone for a while!"
"Then why did you come?"
Xie Jianshe tapped his watch: "Little girl, you've been sitting alone for several hours. As your fiancé, of course I'm worried you'll get hungry!"
Once you're full, you can sit as long as you want!
I'll stay with you! Don't worry, I won't bother you, I'll just protect your safety!
Zhou smiled, pursing her lips.
"Thank you!"
As he spoke, he stirred the flames.
"As her fiancé, this is what I should do! Just tell me what you need!"
"hehe……"
"Finally smiling?"
Zhou was somewhat touched: "Aren't you afraid that I'm using you?"
Upon hearing this, Xie Jianshe said seriously, "This world is inherently a relationship of exploitation and being exploited. The worst thing is having no value to be exploited."
It's like you married me!
What do I have that you'd want from me? My poor family background? My lack of money? My humble origins?
So even if you're using me, perhaps it's just for temporary safety and stability! This is the only thing I can give you!
Xiao Ye, don't put so much pressure on yourself!
Do whatever you want.
After we get married, I will be your husband! Wherever I am, that's your home!
So... I support everything you do!
I am one of the resources you can utilize!
Do you understand?
Zhou opened his mouth, then lowered his head and said in a deep voice, "I'm sorry!"
Xie Jianshe patted Zhou Ye's head: "You're only sixteen, still a child. It's normal for you to make mistakes."
Besides, you did nothing wrong! And don't worry, even if you marry me, you won't feel burdened!
I will wait until you are twenty! Until you grow up!
Zhou Ye took a deep breath, trying to suppress the guilt and apology in her heart.
But it won't work...
With a soft "Waaah...", she couldn't hold back and burst into tears!
Xie Jianshe didn't say anything, but gently put his arm around Zhou Ye: "It's okay, everything will pass! It's okay..."
Neither of them noticed that not far behind them...
A man staggered away...
In the afternoon, Zhou Ye and Xie Jianshe went down the mountain together. At the foot of the mountain, someone was shouting and yelling.
"Jianshe, you're finally back! Your mother is injured!"
"Zhou Zhiqing, go quickly and see, Aunt Guihua's head is all cut!"
"What?"
Zhou Ye's heart skipped a beat. What had happened?
The two of them ran away...
A large crowd had gathered at the village chief's house.
Upon seeing Zhou, they all shouted, "Zhou, the educated youth, is back! Zhou, the educated youth, is back!"
Zhou Ye squeezed in and was immediately hugged by someone: "Xiao Ye, please save my mom? My mom is trying to help me."
Xiao Ye, please save her!
"Waaah..."
The one speaking while crying was Xie Yanli.
Zhou rushed in and saw that Wang Guihua had been hit on the forehead by something and had a gash. The blood hadn't clotted yet and was still gushing out.
"How long ago was this? What was used to smash it?"
Zhou asked questions while cleaning the wound.
There's some dust on it, so is it a stone or a brick?
Zhou also expressed his doubts.
Xie Yanli cried and said, "It was a brick! Mom did it to protect me!"
Zhou understood. These days, people don't take injuries to the hospital; they take them home and then find a doctor!
Almost every village has a doctor who can do everything.
Zhou Ye just checked his pulse. It's not too serious; at least it didn't damage his brain. But the wound must be quite large and deep.
The journey back was bumpy the whole way...
This is what caused the continuous bleeding.
Just as Zhou Ye was about to make a move, Xie Yanli grabbed his arm: "Xiao Ye, you have to save my mom!"
I can't live without my mom!
"Waaah..."
Zhou Ye immediately lost his patience and turned around to shout, "Shut up!"
Xie Yanli paused for a moment, startled, and looked like she was about to cry again: "Still crying?"
Xie Yanli covered her mouth and shook her head vigorously.
"Get out of the way, don't get in my way!"
"Mmm..."
Xie Yanli immediately hid to the side, keeping a safe distance!
It's so annoying. All I do when something happens is cry... What else can I do besides cry?
I'm so angry!
They got hit by something, and instead of rushing to the hospital, they brought the car back from such a long distance.
This is terrible!
Wang Guihua is really lucky!
He quickly cleaned Wang Guihua's wound, applied anti-inflammatory medicine, and bandaged it with gauze.
"You're alright for now, just a slight concussion! I'll prescribe some medication, take it for a few days!"
Xie Youfu immediately stepped forward: "Thank you so much, Xiao Ye! It's all thanks to you!"
Zhou shook his head.
Wang Guihua is still unconscious; she should wake up soon.
Xie Youfu then had a chance to look at Xie Yanli: "Yanli, tell me, what exactly happened?"
Didn't your mom go back to her parents' home with you?
What did you encounter on the way?
Xie Yanli glanced at Xie Jianshe, but dared not speak.
Everyone in the village has left, and now only Zhou Ye, an outsider, is in the house.
"Um... Dad, I'm going back now."
Xie Youfu stopped him, saying, "Xiao Ye, you're part of the family now, no need to hide it!"
"oh!"
Zhou also glanced at Xie Yanli!
Xie Yanli's eyes darted away.
Xie Youfu looked at Xie Yanli and slammed his hand on the table: "Speak!"
Xie Yanli trembled and sobbed, "My mom went to get my job back! Waaah..."
Dad, I was wrong!
I shouldn't have believed them!
I was scammed!
"Waaah..."
Xie Jianshe frowned as he looked at it.
"You want your job back? What happened to your job? Who gave it to you?"
When Xie Jianshe asked, Xie Yanli panicked even more. In her fear, she told him everything.
“Jianshe, I’m so sorry, I lost the job you bought for me! I’m so sorry! When I first married into the family, Zhou Tao said that we were short of money and needed money, and my mother-in-law was also in poor health!”
I'll return all the bride price to them!
But later, my father-in-law also felt unwell, so I... I took out the dowry that my family had given me.
They kept their word and treated me quite well!
But then, a year later, my sister-in-law was looking for a boyfriend!
Zhou Tao said that if her sister-in-law didn't have a job, she wouldn't be able to find a good husband, so she wanted me to lend her my job to her.
The salary is still mine!
"Once my sister-in-law gets married, she'll give me back this job!"
"I think that makes sense. My sister-in-law is family. If she can marry into a good family, I can benefit from it too!"
I...I gave it to them!
But... later, they said it wasn't appropriate for my sister-in-law to get married so soon, or that it wasn't appropriate for her to get pregnant so soon...
It's not appropriate to have just given birth...
Later they stopped paying my salary!
They said...the sister-in-law's in-laws weren't willing!
"Waaah... I can't help it. Zhou Tao said I'm being petty. We're all family, and he said I'm being too petty!"
They said I'm stingy!
That's my job, I just want to come back!
"Waaah..."
Xie Yanli became more and more agitated as she spoke, and finally cried out, "I dare not tell you about this, I told my mother."
Mom told me not to tell Jianshe, saying it would cause him trouble!
I'm so sorry, I didn't expect it to turn out like this!
Zhou rolled his eyes, speechless!
You brought this on yourself!
The Zhou family is full of bad people, and you're a fool too!
Xie Jianshe was so angry he couldn't speak!
"You... Xie Yanli, is your brain just for show? They dare to hire you because they know you too well!"
Knowing you wouldn't dare tell me, that's why I've gotten increasingly outrageous!
You should have told me sooner!
Xie Yanli: "I'm afraid I'll cause you trouble!"
Xie Youfu angrily picked up a feather duster and stepped forward to hit someone!
"You rebellious daughter! You're driving me crazy!"
Xie Yanli was terrified and immediately knelt on the ground, saying, "I'm sorry, I was wrong! I'm sorry!"
"I...I want a divorce!"
One sentence was all it took to bring everyone to a stop.
"What did you say?"
Xie Yanli mustered her courage, looked at her family, and said loudly, "I want a divorce! I want my job back! I want them all to regret what they did to me!"
I want to take my child back!
Xie Jianshe sighed and helped Xie Youfu sit down.
"Since you put it that way, you're not too stupid! I didn't agree to you marrying Zhou Tao in the first place, but you insisted on it!"
Since we've suffered a loss, we should retaliate properly!
Xie Jianshe said with a hostile tone.
Xie Yanli looked at Zhou Ye and said guiltily, "I... Xiao Ye, I'm so sorry! This happened in the few days before your wedding."
sorry! "
Zhou smiled faintly: "It's alright! I don't mind!"
Xie Jianshe said to Xie Yanli, "Sister, my wedding with Xiao Ye will be in a few days. Let's not rush things."
You stay home and take care of Mom first!
After the wedding, Mom's health improved a bit!
I'll work with you to resolve this!
But one thing is for sure: now that you've said it, I won't give you a chance to take it back! Got it?
If you soften your heart again, I won't take care of you anymore!
Xie Yanli nodded immediately: "Yes, I understand! Jianshe, I've made up my mind! No matter how Zhou Tao tries to coax me, I won't believe him!"
I have to get my child back too!
"I'll help you! But you have to have your own job! Otherwise, it'll definitely be a problem!"
"Okay!"
After finishing his sentence, Xie Jianshe escorted Zhou Ye back, saying, "I'm sorry, I made you see something unpleasant!"
"It's alright, every family has its share of trivial matters, it's all the same!"
"Oh……"
"why are you laughing?"
Xie Jianshe said, "It's nothing. I just feel that I'm lucky to have married you. I don't know which deity has blessed me!"
Zhou couldn't laugh either. He thought to himself, "Maybe it's not that I've seen something new? Maybe I've been used!"
The day before arrived quickly, and Zhou Ye had barely spoken to Bai Xue in the past few days. He didn't know when the embroidery had been placed in his room.
Touching the embroidery, Zhou Ye felt a mix of emotions.
A letter was tucked inside: "Sister Zhou, I know you hate me! But this is something I embroidered myself; it's a gift for you!"
You absolutely must accept this!
If you really don't like it, then just throw it away!
Zhou didn't show any expression as he put the things away.
Before dawn the next day, an elderly man from the village came to knock on the door.
"This is?"
Zhou was also somewhat puzzled!
The old woman smiled and said, "We're here to comb your hair! Your mother-in-law told us about it a long time ago!"
We are a family of filial piety and virtue, with both a son and a daughter!
Your mother-in-law specifically instructed you to do this beforehand!
Zhou welcomed them in, saying, "Thank you! Please come in!"
The elderly people offered their congratulations and took out red combs!
Exclamations came from outside every now and then, and Zhou looked out curiously.
Huang Ying came in with a smile, pulled Zhou Ye along, and looked at him with envy: "Zhou Ye, congratulations!"
Come to think of it, Xie Jianshe was quite remarkable!
It's quite... what's the word again? Romantic? Yes, quite romantic!
Zhou Ye asked softly, "What did he do?"
"Hehe...you'll find out soon enough! I'll give you a big surprise!"
Zhou Ye scoffed, "And you're surprised!"
It's good enough if they don't scare you!
Bai Xue stood outside the door, unsure whether she should go in, but Huang Ying saw her and her expression changed drastically.
"Xiao Ye, I'm going out for a bit!"
"Um!"
Huang Ying went outside and pulled Bai Xue outside.
"What do you want to do? Aren't you satisfied with ruining someone's wedding dress?"
Faced with Huang Ying's questioning, Bai Xue sneered: "When did it become your place to question our relationship?"
Zhou is my sister, not yours!
Huang Ying laughed: "Heh... Sister? Is this how you treat your sister? Are you jealous of your own sister?"
"I'm not jealous!"
Bai Xue retorted angrily.
Huang Ying gritted her teeth and said, "Bai Xue, don't be heartless! You ruined Zhou Ye's wedding dress, and Zhou Ye didn't say anything to you."
Who are you trying to impress by apologizing so dramatically?
"What else do you want to do? Do you still want to ruin the wedding? Zhou Ye has treated you well, hasn't he? How can you be such an ingrate?"
Bai Xue lowered her head and remained silent, only managing a bitter laugh.
So, I don't even deserve to offer my blessings?
Looking at Bai Xue's expression, Huang Ying felt a pang of sadness. Who said you had no right to offer blessings? But... wasn't this something you did yourself?
"you……"
Bai Xue: "Whether you believe it or not, I just misunderstood for a moment! Zhou Ye will always be my older sister!"
Huang Ying watched Bai Xue leave forlornly, and felt a pang of sadness in her heart.
Back inside, I felt very down.
"What's wrong?"
Zhou also asked.
Huang Ying whispered, "Bai Xue came by just now! She probably wanted to wish you well, but I scolded her away!"
Did I... do something wrong?
After all, you two used to have such a good relationship!
sorry! "
Zhou also smiled and said, "It's nothing!"
Bai Xue, I hope you won't dwell on past relationships in the future. Your father wasn't a good person, and as his daughter, it's understandable that I miss him.
But I still hope you're doing well. Go on and live your life well.
According to the rules, Xie Jianshe would come to pick up the bride at 10 a.m. Zhou hadn’t eaten a single bite of food since before dawn until now at 8 a.m.
I was starving!
The old woman who was combing her hair had left; only Huang Ying and Chen Lan remained with her.
"How about... we drink some water?"
Huang Ying suggested.
Chen Lan stopped her, saying, "That won't do. What if we need to use the restroom when we're about to perform the ceremony?"
That's against the rules!
Huang Ying hesitated for a moment: "Yeah, that's true! But I'm really hungry! We've all eaten, and Xiao Ye is the only one who's hungry. I feel really bad about it."
"Just for today. We can have dinner after the wedding is over!"
Chen Lan comforted her.
Just then, there was a knock on the door!
Huang Ying: "Wait a minute, who is it? There shouldn't be anyone here!"
"Yes, it's not time yet!"
"It's me!"
The sound of snow outside the door.
Huang Ying and Chen Lan both looked at Zhou Ye at the same time: "This... shall we let him in?"
Zhou Ye's feelings were mixed for a moment.
"Come in!"
Bai Xue pushed open the door and came in, carrying a bowl of noodles with two large, eye-catching poached eggs on top.
"What are you doing...?"
Huang Ying asked in confusion.
Bai Xue looked at Zhou Ye and said, "Sister Zhou, we were sisters after all! Our past friendship can't be faked!"
Getting married is a big deal, but you can't go hungry!
Let's eat!
Chen Lan suddenly became very alert: "Bai Xue, you didn't drug me, did you?"
Bai Xue scoffed, "Am I really that despicable?"
As she spoke, her eyes reddened slightly, and she looked at Zhou Ye: "Sister Zhou, this is what I just made. There's not much soup, but don't worry, you won't need to go to the toilet."
and……
Your stomach isn't very good, you can't go hungry!
Zhou Ye looked at her, and Bai Xue felt even more aggrieved: "I wouldn't have drugged you!"
Zhou Ye took it directly and took a bite.
"Why……"
Chen Lan wanted to stop it, but it was too late!
Bai Xue smiled slightly: "I'm going out first! If possible, finish eating! The wedding won't be finished until the afternoon."
If you get hungry by that point, you'll be starving!
I'm leaving!
Chen Lan tried to snatch the bowl from Zhou Ye's hand: "Xiao Ye, are you really at ease? We never realized before that Bai Xue had such thoughts."
If she drugged you, how could you protect yourself?
What if today's wedding goes wrong?
"She won't!"
Zhou also said it with certainty!
"Of course she would! She even ruined your wedding dress!"
Zhou Ye said in a deep voice, "I understand! She won't!"
Seeing Zhou Ye's certainty, Chen Lan didn't know what to say.
Outside the door, Bai Xue smiled faintly. Sister Zhou still cares about me; at least she hasn't completely given up on me!
Of course I wouldn't poison it!
After all, she's such a beloved Sister Zhou!
But... how much better it would be if she didn't have a father. She understood very well what her father had done, and she understood that her father deserved to die!
But that was her father!
Sister Zhou, consider that wedding dress my revenge!
From now on, we will have no more grudges!
He sniffed... and went back to his room.
Ten o'clock arrived quickly, and celebratory loudspeaker announcements came from outside the educated youth settlement...
The sound was melodious...
Xie Jianshe arrived to pick up the bride, dressed in a neat Zhongshan suit...
"Give me candy...give me candy...no candy, no entry!"
"Groom, here's some candy..."
Xie Jianshe slipped a lot of candy through the crack in the door, and also specially slipped in a few red envelopes!
"Wow, there's a red envelope!"
Huang Ying opened it with a pleasant surprise: "Wow...it's actually...five cents!"
Chen Lan said shyly, "Xiao Ye, it's not that we didn't want to block the door, it's just that they gave us so much..."
These red envelopes are so big, and there are several of them! Hehe…
Soon, these people were captivated by the sweet words and promises, and the door was opened!
Xie Jianshe was completely bewildered by Zhou Ye's new look!
Stare intently!
"Alright...stop looking! We need to pick up the bride!"
Xie Jianshe then realized what was happening!
Xie Jianshe carried Zhou Ye out the door, and the moment they stepped outside, Zhou Ye was completely stunned!
A path of flower petals begins at the entrance and extends outwards...
Extending into the distance...
"this……"
Zhou had never experienced anything like this before, so he was bound to be shocked.
Xie Jianshe said, "When I bought the crystal shoes, you said that they were perfect for walking on a path of flower petals!"
Although there weren't any roses like you mentioned, I picked all the flowers that were growing all over the mountains!
How do you like it? "
I love it, I love it so much!
Although they weren't roses, the path paved with colorful petals was absolutely mesmerizing!
It seems to be the same as Rainbow City in the animated world!
"I really like it, thank you! It would be a shame not to walk on a path like this! Put me down!!" Those words made Xie Jianshe almost regret creating the flower petal path!
No more hugging!
pity……
