Chapter 17: Beating Up the Scumbag (Page 1/2)
Lin Man followed Huo Qingci to the military hospital. Huo Qingci first sent her to the dormitory and then went to work.
Before leaving, he said to Lin Man, "You take a nap first. When I get back from get off work, we can go to the cafeteria for lunch. If you feel bored, you can go to the supply and marketing cooperative in the afternoon."
"Okay, then go to work."
As soon as Huo Qingci left, Lin Man closed the dormitory door and went straight into the space.
The robot butler Xiaozhi came over and asked, "Master, is there anything I can help you with?"
[I received their red envelopes this time and want to give them back to the elders. I don't want to spend money to buy them. Can you help me sort them out?]
[Master, would you like abalone, shark's fin, and bird's nest as a gift?]
[No, each family only needs to prepare two towels, three feet of cotton cloth, one pound of candy and one pound of biscuits.]
[Huh? Why is it so little? How can people of your generation be so stingy? Gifts are only a pound of candy or a pound of cookies.]
How much are towels worth? How about we get a large bath towel instead? A couple's style with a wedding sign printed on it.
[Okay, you can also pick candies and cookies with wedding characters on them. It's best to scratch off the production dates.]
There is a 10,000-square-meter daily necessities supermarket in the warehouse, which can provide more towels and bath towels than can be used up in a lifetime. Logically, the woman should prepare clothes and shoes for the man’s grandfather, father and mother when she visits for the first time.
She didn't prepare anything, not even a quilt. Her mother-in-law didn't care, so she had to prepare some for herself.
[By the way, please prepare four more quilts and two blankets for me.]
[Master, these three villas only have goose down and silk quilts. The warehouse supermarket has down quilts, silk quilts, soybean fiber quilts, and wool quilts, but no cotton quilts.]
[Isn't there a warehouse with 200 tons of lint?]
[Yes, but it needs to be made into a quilt.]
[So I'm making quilts in my space these past two days? ]
[No rush, it's summer now. Isn't the master going to live on an island? There's no need for a quilt there, so an air-conditioning blanket will do.]
Lin Man thought that even if she didn't need a quilt when she went to the island, she would still have to make two or three quilts and keep them at home.
"Xiaozhi, please help me prepare the return gift for the elders. I'll fill the quilt with cotton myself."
"Master, I think you could take some cotton out and ask a cotton maker to make four beds for you."
[Okay, I'll go ask around today to find a cotton craftsman.]
Lin Man suddenly thought that Huo Qingci had to wait until the documents came down before he could pack up and take the train south, then transfer to Xuwen in Huacheng, and then take a boat from Xuwen to the island.
Such a long distance would probably take two or three days on the road. The island was very poor and ordinary people were so poor that they couldn't even afford rice, but there were a lot of troops stationed there.
The street is very difficult. Is Grandpa Huo Qingci trying to temper Huo Qingci's will?
Lin Man admired Huo Qingci very much. He had a good family background, so no one would dare to cause trouble for him even if he stayed.
But he still listened to his grandfather's advice and went to the island to train for a few years. Fortunately, her space had enough supplies, otherwise he would have to eat porridge every day on the island.
Lin Man didn't plan to continue wasting time in the space and prepared to go out for a walk. As soon as she went downstairs, she ran into her ex-fiancé Ye Chen.
What a ghost! How come I met him here?
Seeing Su Qingyu, Ye Chen frowned and asked fiercely, "Lin Man, did you beat Shuangshuang?"
"When did I hit her?"
No matter whether she was beaten or not, she would never admit it. That little Bai Lian deserved to be beaten. She was lucky that she was not struck by lightning a few more times.

"Your parents said that they would buy Shuangshuang a job after I marry her. You must be feeling unbalanced because I saw you marrying her."
After saying that, he stepped forward and grabbed Lin Man's hand, but Lin Man shook his hand off.
"Bah! Why should I feel unbalanced? Haven't you and Lin Shuang been hooking up for a long time? I heard that you two even shared a room before you even registered.
Lin Shuang even complained to her sister-in-law about you being no good. You were more impatient than a monkey before going into battle, and faster than an airplane... Tsk tsk tsk, you should go home and ask your mother to make some medicine for you! Brother Yang Wei!
Ye Chen was so angry and embarrassed by Lin Man's words, "Are you sick? When did I get together with Lin Shuang?"
Then he snorted coldly, "You are slandering me because you are jealous that Shuangshuang can marry me.
Don't be proud just because you're pretty. Your school has been closed and you can't find a job."
Suddenly, Lin Man's eyes turned cold, and she stepped forward and slapped Ye Chen twice, "You damn scumbag!"
Ye Chen was stunned. Was he beaten by a woman?
When he finally reacted and was about to hit Lin Man, Lin Man kicked him in the stomach.
"Don't mess with me, or I'll sue you for having an affair."
Regardless of whether he slept with Lin Shuang or not, he just said that since she said yes, then it was true. They couldn't possibly go to the hospital to prove that they were virgins, right?
Ye Chen was kicked to the ground and looked at Lin Man in disbelief. When did this damn woman become so vicious?
"You, you, you...you're a shrew! Just wait for Director Wang to marry you and carry on the family line for his son!"
"So what if I'm a shrew? I'm still better than a weakling like you. Besides, I'm already married!
Lin Shuang wants to sell me to her in exchange for a job. They can dream on! Dreams can bring anything. Humph!
Lin Man snorted coldly and ran away, thinking, could this damn scumbag also live in the dormitory? What bad luck!
heitUi~!
Never mind, let’s go find the cotton maker and ask him to help make two quilts.
She didn't know where to find someone, so she asked the woman sitting in the yard chatting, "Auntie, is there a cotton quilt maker who specializes in making quilts for people?"
"Little comrade, do you want to fluff your quilt? There's a cotton fluffer near the cotton mill. Do you have any extra cotton? Can you give me two pounds so I can make a set of cotton-padded clothes for my grandson?"
"Sorry, Auntie, I don't have much cotton."
She has plenty of cotton in her space, but she can't sell the cotton in her space now. If you sell her two kilograms of cotton, she might turn around and report you.
Now is a special period, she won't bother anyone and just live her own life.
Knowing that there was a cotton-fluffing business near the cotton mill, Lin Man took the bus to the mill, found the family that fluffed the cotton, and after asking the price, Lin Man decided to fluff four quilts at a time.
Two six-jin quilts were left in the courtyard, and two four-jin quilts were taken to Hainan Island. Although the weather there was hot and it was only a dozen degrees Celsius in winter, we still had to cover ourselves with thin quilts.
She also asked the master to make the quilt bigger, but the master said it was a fixed size. Lin Man had no choice but to give up, paid the money, went outside for a walk twice, and found an opportunity to get 20 kilograms of cotton from the space.
The cotton is not very heavy, but it is very fluffy and can fill a whole bag.
Lin Man lied, saying she was getting married and needed a quilt urgently. The cotton craftsman told her to come back a week later. She paid the money, took the handwritten note, and left.
