Liu Dazui was embarrassed and furious. "It's just an apple! What's the big deal? It's not like I've never eaten one before."
Aunt Wang retorted, "I've never actually eaten it. Have you?"
One sentence left Liu speechless, and he walked away with a green face.
With the troublemaker gone, everyone was in a harmonious atmosphere.
The women's director asked, "Yu girl, when do you plan to go to the island after you get married? Your uncle said he's in the brigade these days. If you need a letter of introduction, just go to the brigade office and find him."
Yu Yao didn't know when she left, and turned back to look at Lu Ze.
Lu Ze: "The train is the day after tomorrow. After we finish the wedding tomorrow, Yu Yao and I will go to the brigade to get the certificate."
"Okay, as long as you know what I mean."
Back at the Yu family home, her and Mu Hehe's room had already been furnished.
Yu Yao originally intended to stay and help when she left in the morning.
Whether it was a sudden pang of conscience or some other ulterior motive, Yu Defu said he would handle it and let them make their own arrangements.
Yu Yao wanted to go to her room to check, but the mushrooms in her basket hadn't been dried yet, and they wouldn't be able to dry properly once the sun went down.
Lu Ze saw through her thoughts and took the basket: "I'll go dry the mushrooms, you go check on the room."
Yu Yao was tempted. "Then I'll leave the mushrooms to you. I'll take a look and be right back."
She pasted a large red "double happiness" character on the door of her room, and also pasted "double happiness" character window decorations on the windows inside the room. It looked quite ordinary, nothing outstanding, but nothing wrong with it.
These were still special times, and since the Lu family members were either in the military or in the government, their rooms weren't decorated too much; it wouldn't be good if they were too eye-catching.
The door to the room next to hers also had a "double happiness" character pasted on it. This was originally Yu Honglan's room. After Yu Honglan's accident, Mu Hehe moved in.
She will be getting married from here tomorrow.
The two rooms are very similar, and it's easy to mistake one for the other without careful observation.
She had just come out of the house when she heard Mu Hehe's voice: "Yunqi, what brings you here?"
Mu Hehe rushed forward, and when she saw what Lu Yunqi was wearing, she couldn't help but exclaim, "Yunqi, you've fallen into a cesspool!"
Upon hearing this, everyone inside rushed out, their eyes all turning to Lu Yunqi.
Lu Yunqi was about to go crazy.
Why is this idiot yelling so loudly? Does he think he's not embarrassed enough already?
He thought he was about to leave Baihe Brigade, but the further he went, the more remote it became. When he saw that there was no road ahead, he turned around and went in one direction. But after taking only a few steps, he fell into a cesspool with a splash.
He finally managed to crawl out, but he was covered in a stench that made him feel so disgusted he wished his soul would leave his body.
After washing in the Baihe River for a long time, I couldn't stand the coldness of the mountain spring water anymore, so I quickly jumped in to rinse off and headed to the Yu family's house.
He was already unlucky enough, but now so many people had witnessed his pathetic state. Lu Yunqi felt like dying.
Damn it.
Damn Baihe Brigade, damn Yu Yao, they're both at odds with him.
Seeing him like this, Yu Defu quickly told Mu Hehe to go to his room to get some clean clothes.
"Hehe, quickly get Yunqi a clean set of clothes, I'll go boil some water." After saying that, he sent everyone else away, since the room was already set up anyway.
Seeing that there was no excitement to be had, the others had no choice but to leave.
"You stay in my room first, or wait in the yard for a while, I'll go get it." Mu Hehe held her breath and ran off in one breath.
Lu Yunqi huddled in the courtyard with his arms crossed. Hearing footsteps, he thought it was Mu Hehe, but it turned out to be Yu Yao.
He froze, head down, wishing he could dig a hole and disappear.
Yu Yao covered her nose, leaned against the door, and said with a smile, "Lu Yunqi, did you go to the latrine to take a bath? That's quite a unique fetish."
Seeing that she showed no surprise, Lu Yunqi seemed to understand something and glared at her angrily.
"Yu Yao, did you already know that there was a cesspool over there, and deliberately not remind me?"
Yu Yao shrugged: "Who knew you'd run into the latrine? You just felt guilty seeing Lu Ze was here."
Lu Yunqi asked doubtfully, "You really don't know?"
Yu Yao gave a fake smile: "Of course it's fake. But even if I knew, why would I tell you? Just because you're so arrogant and presumptuous, yet you dare to say you want to marry me?"
With a cold snort, Yu Yao covered her nose and went to the threshing floor to find Lu Ze.
Lu Yunqi watched her retreating figure, his anger rising with embarrassment. "Yu Yao, apologize now, and I can forgive you. My previous statement that I didn't want Mu Hehe to marry you still stands."
Yu Yao turned around: "Lu Yunqi, do you really think you're so special? Who cares about you? Let me tell you, the person I'm going to marry will never be you."
Lu Yunqi clenched his fists. "Yu Yao, you'll regret this!"
If it weren't for him in her past life, Yu Yao would have been married off by Yu Defu to some ugly, ugly man in exchange for a dowry. She would have been able to go to university, start a company, and have a prosperous life.
Does she know how many women outside envy her for being Lu Yunqi's empress?
She actually didn't know how to refuse.
Yu Yao didn't take Lu Yunqi's harsh words to heart at all.
"Regret? The word 'regret' doesn't exist in my dictionary, and I certainly won't regret rejecting you!"
When Yu Yao said this, she glanced at the hem of her clothes at the entrance of the main room, and then left without looking back.
Lu Yunqi was so angry that his face turned red and his neck bulged. He gritted his teeth and said to Yu Yao's departing figure, "Yu Yao, fine, very well. Remember what I said today, and don't ever beg me."
Did she think he would give her another chance?
He wanted to see what kind of future Yu Yao could have without him.
Mu Hehe stood behind the door with a gloomy expression.
Even on the day before the wedding, that bitch Yu Yao was still seducing Lu Yunqi, trying to make him leave her.
This is outrageous!
Yu Yao, you forced me to do this.
A glint of malice flashed in Mu Hehe's eyes, but then, as if remembering something, she smiled and walked out the door: "Yunqi, the water is boiled. Here are some clean clothes. Go and wash them."
Lu Yunqi was so focused on taking a bath that he didn't notice that Mu Hehe's smile didn't reach her eyes.
On the other side, when Yu Yao arrived at the drying ground, Lu Ze had already dried the mushrooms. She glanced at the sky and saw that it was still early, so she went up the mountain with Lu Ze to pick mushrooms.
With the addition of Lu Ze, a formidable general, they have reaped a great harvest.
The weather is hot and the sun is strong, so the mushrooms will be almost dry in half a day. Yu Yao and Lu Ze put the mushrooms into bags together.
When Lu Ze returned, he drove them to the guesthouse. They could just take them with them when they went to the island.
Before dawn the next day, the fortune teller Hu Lingyu had found came to help Yu Yao and Mu Hehe with their hair and makeup. A large group of unmarried young women also came to help.
Yu Yao, still half asleep, went to the hand-operated well in the yard to wash up.
Mu Hehe followed closely behind.
The auspicious times for their weddings were almost the same.
Mu Hehe looked at Yu Yao in front of her, and her eyes inadvertently caught sight of a figure, causing a slight smile to appear on her lips.
Amidst the commotion, someone secretly followed Yu Yao into her room, and soon after, sneaked out again.
