"What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and get her up here!" Lu Mingcai now hated his troublesome daughter and his brainless wife to the core.
What a disgraceful thing!
He could already imagine what kind of rumors would circulate in the village tomorrow!
The brigade leader's daughter jumped into the latrine and ate excrement in the middle of the night!
Just thinking about it made his veins throb!
Aunt Zhang then realized what was happening and quickly went to pull Lu Xiaolan away.
Luckily, it's freezing cold now, and it had just snowed, so the outhouse was frozen solid, otherwise...
Aunt Zhang felt disgusted just thinking about it!
Lu Xiaolan wouldn't listen to Aunt Zhang at all, refusing to go up with her, and almost dragged Aunt Zhang down with her. In the end, Aunt Zhang was so angry that she slapped her hard.
After being slapped, Lu Xiaolan regained her senses and found herself in a cesspool. She screamed and immediately scrambled out of the cesspool, but then she noticed something was wrong with the taste in her mouth. Looking at the filth on her hands and then at the neighbors watching the commotion, she screamed and ran back to her room.
It is said that the lights in Lu Xiaolan's house were on all night, and the fire in the stove never went out in the latter half of the night, constantly boiling water.
The next day, when Ye Weiwei and Huo Xiao took Xiao Xingxing to town, they ran into Xu Meijun, Chen Jiali, Hou Zheng, and Xie Ning from the educated youth settlement, so the group traveled together.
On the way, Xu Meijun couldn't wait to share the gossip she had heard with Ye Weiwei.
"Tell me, is Lu Xiaolan out of her mind? Running into the latrine in the middle of the night looking for shit to eat, ugh... just thinking about it makes me sick!"
Ye Weiwei said calmly, "So there's a reason why she has a foul mouth."
Xu Meijun blinked, wondering if it was this guy who did it.
Lu Xiaolan was spreading rumors and slandering Ye Weiwei in the village yesterday.
Thinking about it that way, it's actually quite possible!
However, this woman's methods of revenge are truly...
The thought alone sends chills down my spine.
Chen Jiali, unaware of the reason, nodded in agreement, "That's right! I now think she and Zhao Mingzhe are really a good match, they both seem to have a special connection with the latrine!"
Ye Weiwei pretended to think, "A cesspool couple?"
Xu Meijun couldn't help but burst out laughing, "You're really nasty, how could you come up with a name like that!"
Chen Jiali couldn't stop laughing.
Ye Weiwei shrugged. "Didn't you all say they're a perfect match and destined for each other? I think they're a match made in heaven, and I hope they can get married soon."
Hou Zheng shook his head upon hearing this: "Zhao Mingzhe is arrogant and proud. He never thought much of Lu Xiaolan in the first place. Now that Lu Xiaolan has caused such a scene, it's even less likely!"
Xie Ning: "That's not necessarily true. I've noticed that although Zhao Mingzhe always says he doesn't want Lu Xiaolan to come to him anymore, he always goes out when Lu Xiaolan goes to the educated youth settlement to see him, and the two of them end up talking for a long time."
Hou Zheng looked at Xie Ning speechlessly, thinking to himself that Zhao Mingzhe was after Lu Xiaolan's things, not actually interested in Lu Xiaolan.
However, after Xie Ning mentioned it, Hou Zheng felt even more that Zhao Mingzhe was a scoundrel!
He clearly didn't like Lu Xiaolan, but he kept her hanging on for her sake.
Xu Meijun leaned closer to Ye Weiwei, her eyes gleaming with gossip: "You really think Lu Xiaolan and Zhao Mingzhe are a good match and hope they get married?"
Ye Weiwei looked at her with a smile: "Don't you think they're a perfect match?"
Xu Meijun nodded vigorously: "They're a perfect match! There's no couple more perfectly matched than them!"
Ye Weiwei: "No?"
Xu Meijun's face stiffened, and she immediately realized what she meant. "You and your Huo Xiaodi are a perfect match, okay?"
Ye Weiwei said smugly, "You have good taste!"
Xu Meijun felt her teeth ache terribly and nudged Ye Weiwei with annoyance: "You said before that you would invite us to your housewarming party after you moved to your new house. How many days has it been? Do you still stand by that promise?!"
Ye Weiwei had completely forgotten about this. Seeing Xu Meijun, Chen Jiali, Hou Zheng, and Xie Ning all looking at her, she said, "When have I ever gone back on my word? Let's do it tomorrow! All of you come to my house for dinner tomorrow, and let my Huo Xiao show you what he can do!"
Xu Meijun exclaimed with delight, "You said it yourself! We'll definitely all go tomorrow!"
After saying that, she glanced at Huo Xiao, then lowered her voice and asked Ye Weiwei, "How's your man's cooking? Is it as bad as yours?"
Chen Jiali quickly replied, "It's alright, I can cook tomorrow."
Hou Zheng and Xie Ning both looked over.
Unfortunately, they were simply not cut out for Ye Weiwei's cooking skills. If Huo Xiao's cooking was just as good as Ye Weiwei's, they would have no choice but to fend for themselves tomorrow.
Ye Weiwei sneered: "Stop looking down on me! My man is a perfect gentleman, a domestic goddess, and an all-rounder!"
Xu Meijun clicked her tongue twice and exclaimed, "You really hit the jackpot!"
Chen Jiali looked at Ye Weiwei with envy.
She didn't ask for much; as long as she could find a man who was half as good as Ye Weiwei, she would marry him without hesitation.
The group chatted and laughed as they walked all the way to town before parting ways.
Ye Weiwei was going to the pharmacy to buy medicinal herbs, while Huo Xiao planned to go to the post office to make a phone call and then stop by the police station to say hello to Fang Ming and Li Hao and ask them about something.
So the two split up and met at the state-run restaurant at noon, with Xiao Xingxing still following Huo Xiao.
Ye Weiwei first went to the herbal medicine shop, took out the herbs she needed from her space, and then went to the residence of the Luo family grandfather and grandson. She left two bags of grain and a bag of dried vegetables for them, and watched Luo Rui take the things inside and hide them before she left.
Having not been to town for so long, of course I have to stop by the scrap metal recycling station to check in.
The old lady at the scrap metal recycling station hadn't seen Ye Weiwei for a while, and she was very enthusiastic when she saw her.
Knowing that Ye Weiwei had gotten married, he offered his congratulations.
“I recently received two large, pretty vases. I thought you would like them, so I’ve been saving them for you.”
Ye Weiwei became interested upon hearing this, "Then take me inside to have a look, and if I like it, I'll buy it."
The old lady happily opened the warehouse door and let Ye Weiwei in to take a look.
Ye Weiwei's eyes lit up when she saw the pair of vases.
These are a pair of large-bellied, double-eared blue and white porcelain vases. The flowers, birds, and fish depicted on them are so lifelike and vivid that they seem to be alive. They are clearly not ordinary items.
Upon closer inspection, she confirmed that it was indeed an antique produced by the official kiln, bearing the imperial seal. It had come from the palace and was perfectly preserved without a single scratch.
Seeing that Ye Weiwei liked them, the old lady said happily, "If you want both vases together, I'll charge you twenty yuan. How about that?"
Ye Weiwei nodded, knowing that the price she offered was fair.
Although we are in a special period, some good things are not openly displayed, but are priced privately.
Moreover, this thing costs twenty yuan, which Ye Weiwei considers practically free.
