"Oh dear, you child, no, no..." Aunt Xiao waved her hand, offering a dry explanation.
This kid is great in every way, except he's too straightforward!
Oh well, this child will be marrying into the family soon anyway.
It will be a detached house with its own courtyard.
Living a secluded life behind closed doors.
Nobody can control that.
Besides, she still has her mother-in-law to protect her.
Even if the sky falls, I'm not afraid.
...
"Um, let me see... Oh my, Little Su, you're really something! You can eat all of this? And there are hazel mushrooms too? Are there hazel mushrooms now? How do you recognize these?"
Aunt Xiao began to rummage through the pile of mushrooms.
The more I looked, the more surprised I became.
I thought this was the child's first time picking mushrooms.
There will inevitably be some things that are not suitable.
It's poisonous.
You can't eat it.
There really wasn't one!
"I bought some books in Shanghai, including one specifically about mushrooms."
It talks about the growing environment of mushrooms, and also includes illustrations of various mushrooms.
Since they're all in black and white, I wasn't really sure, so I asked you to take a look!
Su Ruobai already had a plan.
Aunt Xiao was amazed.
"There are books like this? No wonder everyone says that scholars are the most powerful people!"
Aunt Xiao looked at her daughter-in-law and became more and more satisfied.
Finally, he couldn't resist Su Ruobai's enthusiasm.
Aunt Xiao accepted a wild pheasant.
I wasn't planning on harvesting the mushrooms; we had a ton at home.
However, Su Ruobai said she didn't know how to clean it, and it would be a waste if she took it back and couldn't finish it.
In the end, it might rot and you'll have to throw it away.
Farmers can't stand waste.
Aunt Xiao ordered more than half a basket of mushrooms.
I thought I'd tidy it up and store it away.
Leave it for Xiao Su to eat when she comes in.
...
Su Ruobai returned to the educated youth settlement humming a song.
I'm in a very good mood.
Upon entering, you'll see an eight-immortal table set up in the courtyard.
Two men and two women were sitting at the table.
Those two women looked familiar; they seemed to be the ones who had spoken ill of me yesterday.
I don't know the man.
He was in his fifties and bald.
He was in his thirties and had lost one ear.
His face was covered in scars.
Based on Su Ruobai's experience, this is somewhat like a large animal licking.
Yes, it's done by licking with the tongue.
Many large animals, especially those from post-apocalyptic times, have barbs on their tongues.
Licking it is no joke.
It's no different from a steel knife used for scraping bones.
The two of them were quite bored.
One was smoking a pipe, and the other was smoking a cigarette.
When Su Ruobai entered, her eyes lit up.
I've stopped smoking!
He stared straight at Su Ruobai's face.
...
The other educated youth did not go inside to rest either.
They were in twos and threes in the courtyard, some sitting, some standing.
Whispering among themselves.
He would glance at her every now and then.
He had a look on his face that said, "I'm looking forward to a good show."
Zhou Aiguo saw that she had returned.
He walked up to her in a few steps: "Su Zhiqing, let me tell you, they..."
Before he could finish speaking, Qian Huan covered his mouth and dragged him away.
Xu Mingzhao immediately objected.
Hurry up and rescue your brother-in-law.
Li Fang hurried a few steps: "Su Zhiqing, you're back. Is my basket alright?"
Upon reaching them, he whispered, "They're all here to propose marriage to you, and none of them are good people."
Before he could say anything more, Zhao Lu grabbed his arm and dragged him away.
As Zhao Lu left, she still had a gloating expression on her face.
...
Su Ruobai lowered her head, a fierce glint flashing in her eyes.
It seems that the lesson given to these two yesterday wasn't enough.
...
"Oh, Su Zhiqing, you're finally back! My surname is Wang, you can just call me Aunt Wang," one of the plump middle-aged women said first.
"A pimp surnamed Wang, a middle-aged woman?" Su Ruobai retorted directly.
I originally wanted to mention Wang Gan Niang from Water Margin.
Think about this era.
Okay, let's be more tactful.
Who knew it would just be this one sentence?
It almost made Aunt Wang so angry she almost lost her nose!
Don't take advantage of her because she's uneducated.
Being a pimp is not a good thing!
"Pull, pull... Oh dear, Su Zhiqing, you're quite the joker." Aunt Wang smiled awkwardly.
I mustered my strength and managed a smile.
It's as ugly as can be!
“Su Zhiqing, you know your situation; you probably won’t be able to get married.”
Aunt Wang, I'm kind-hearted, and I can't bear to see you all alone in your old age.
I kindly found you a good place. Look, this is my distant nephew, Wang Qi, who is only thirty-four years old this year.
He's a master hunter; follow him, and you'll never have to worry about food or clothing again.
Su Ruobai snorted coldly.
"Your face has been licked like this by the livestock, and you call yourself a skilled hunter? Are you blind?"
"Besides, I might live to a ripe old age, but you might not be so lucky?"
Upon hearing this, the man was initially flustered, then touched his face.
"It doesn't matter what my face looks like, as long as I can give birth to a son."
"I've taken a liking to you. You don't need to jump into the river anymore. Come home with me today. It's quite far; we don't want to delay our wedding night."
Once we get her home, we'll teach this woman a lesson for not knowing that men are the most important people in the world.
Aunt Wang got anxious and rolled up her sleeves, ready to fight: "What do you mean? Hey, what do you mean?"
Qian Huan, who was eating sunflower seeds next to Zhou Aiguo, muttered to Zhou Aiguo in a low voice: "You're just worrying for no reason."
Someone like Su Zhiqing wouldn't let these few people bully her. Come on, have some sunflower seeds!
