The next day, before going to work, Zou Jing found Qin Xiaoxiao and Su Lu. Before Zou Jing could ask, Su Lu told him what had happened.
Now that Zou Jing and Su Yu are engaged, they're practically family. There's no need to hide anything from him. If he's inclined to side with someone else, then they won't be so polite. They'll definitely exclude him from any future dealings.
After listening, Zou Jing narrowed his eyes, a cold glint flashing in them.
"What do you want to do? We can't just let her do whatever she wants, can we?"
"That's for sure. We're all prepared. Here's what we'll do next."
Su Lu explained the grand plan to Zou Jing. After listening, Zou Jing pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, the plan is quite comprehensive. I can cooperate."
After the two finished speaking, Zou Jing left and then told Su Yu about the matter.
Knowing that she was carefree and loyal, Zou Jing repeatedly warned her, fearing that she might impulsively approach Zhou Ying and ruin Qin Xiaoxiao's plans.
Su Yu was obedient. She knew she wasn't smart enough to compare with Qin Xiaoxiao and the others. She knew that as long as she listened to them, everything would be fine. So Su Yu nodded in agreement.
Zou Jing breathed a sigh of relief and then went out to attend to the wedding arrangements.
Time passed quietly. Su Lu made two trips, one to the capital, and also brought some things for the Su family. Of course, he also established a relationship with the Su family, laying the foundation for the Qin family's future development in the capital.
Su Lu went to the provincial capital and stayed there for two days before returning. Not only did he sell his own goods, he also helped the supply and marketing cooperative purchase a large batch of scarce goods. When he returned to the cooperative, the cooperative's director was overjoyed and thanked Su Lu profusely. In particular, he raised Su Lu's salary from seventy-six yuan to eighty-three yuan a month.
Su Lu didn't care about such a small amount of money. What he cared about was his relationship with the provincial capital. Establishing connections with the provincial capital would make it easier for him to do business and ship goods in the future.
These past few days, Zhou Ying and Huang Yuan haven't been idle either. Zhou Ying kept asking Huang Yuan for money, wanting to go to the county town to hire another batch of reliable people to deal with Qin Xiaoxiao. There was no other way; the Qin family and Su Lu's fighting skills were too high, and she had to prevent any accidents from happening.
Huang Yuan had no money, and his parents were divorced. He asked his family for money, but his father refused. His mother then approached his daughters.
Huang Yuan's sisters were willing to help, but their husbands' families were keeping a close eye on them. They didn't have much money on hand, as they had already given all their money to Huang Yuan. Their husbands also refused to contribute any more money, so they couldn't raise any more funds.
Since no one could come up with the money, Huang's mother wrote a letter to Huang Yuan about the situation.
Upon receiving the letter, Huang Yuan knew that the money was out of the question, because the remittance slip had not been sent with it.
After opening the letter and reading it, it was indeed true. Huang's mother told him that no one could afford to help him and that he had to find a way himself.
Huang Yuan angrily tore up the letter. Zhou Ying, who was standing next to him, asked him for money again. He could only use the tactic of "delaying" to temporarily appease Zhou Ying.
Zhou Ying was in a hurry for the money and didn't care about anything else. She threatened Huang Yuan that he had to give her the money before Su Yu and the others got married, or they would all be doomed.
Huang Yuan was so angry he wanted to beat Zhou Ying up, but Zhou Ying was no pushover either. She unleashed the Nine Yin White Bone Claw, and the fight ended in a draw, with neither of them coming out on top.
On her wedding day, Qin Xiaoxiao got up early to prepare to deal with Zhou Ying.
Su Lu also took the day off and didn't cook. The two of them took out the food stored in their spatial storage, ate a quick bite, and went to the front yard.
Just like last time, Qin Xiaoxiao sat on the kang (a heated brick bed) in Su Yu's room without moving. Su Yu and Liu Meijuan were both getting ready in her room, and Qin Xiaoxiao couldn't stand it, so she helped them put on some light makeup.
The two were already good-looking to begin with, and with Qin Xiaoxiao's dressing up, they looked even better. Moreover, today was their big day, and they were full of energy, smiling shyly at everyone they met, giving everyone a refreshing feeling.
Unsurprisingly, Huang Yuan and Zhou Ying arrived as well. When Su Lu saw them, he snorted and gestured inside.
After seeing this, Su Yun looked up and scanned her surroundings. She glared at Zhou Ying and Huang Yuan resentfully before turning and going to Su Yu's room.
Su Yun stood at the door and nodded to Qin Xiaoxiao. Qin Xiaoxiao immediately saw him and knew that he had arrived and the show was about to begin.
Huang Yuan came to keep an eye on Zhou Ying and prevent her from causing trouble, but he overestimated himself and underestimated the hatred of a woman. Unfortunately, no one can turn back time, otherwise he would never have come here.
"Don't leave my sight, and don't go looking for trouble with Qin Xiaoxiao. You know she's quite skilled; going up against her won't end well for you."
"Hmph, you'd be so kind? Huang Yuan, you coward, you're afraid of Qin Xiaoxiao, but I'm not. I won't let her get away with this."
Zhou Ying touched her face, her hatred deepening.
Qin Xiaoxiao, you ruined my face and made me wish I were dead. So I will take your life, and no one can stop me. This day next year will be your death anniversary.
Zhou Ying's eyes blazed with hatred, and Huang Yuan felt even more regretful upon seeing this. But things had come to this point, and he had no way out. He hoped that Zhou Ying would not succeed, otherwise none of them would be able to leave the educated youth compound today.
Soon, Qin Ergou, Qin Erzhu, and a group of young people from the Qin family came to pick up the newlyweds. Zou Jing also came out of the house at this time. He first scanned the yard, memorized the positions of Su Lu, Qin Ye, Zhou Ying, and Huang Yuan, and then walked to the center of the yard and stood next to Qin Ergou.
The lively wedding procession proceeded smoothly. Su Lu dared not relax and kept a close eye on Zhou Ying, calculating the distance between himself and Zhou Ying and the fastest time he could get into the house.
Qin Ergou quickly took over from Liu Meijuan, and Su Yu also came out from the educated youth compound, standing with Zou Jing with a smile, accepting everyone's blessings.
Zhou Ying quickly scanned the area and, not finding Qin Xiaoxiao, was secretly pleased. Then she quickly glanced at Su Lu's position and realized that he hadn't noticed her and was completely distracted by Su Yu and Zou Jing. So she quietly retreated to the back of the group and headed towards Su Yu's room.
Qin Ye, who had returned, stood silently in the corner. Seeing Zhou Ying retreat, he quickly followed, first walking to Su Lu's side. The two exchanged a glance and then slowly retreated as well.
Once they were out of sight of everyone, the two saw Zhou Ying enter Su Yu's room. They rushed over and covered Huang Yuan's mouth as he realized something was wrong and was about to push the door open.
With so many guests present at the educated youth compound, someone must have noticed something was off about the group. The first to realize something was wrong were Mu Jin, Xiao Nanfeng, Fang Xu, and Gong Yongqiang.
Mu Jin is the female lead, sensitive and with amazing observation skills. Needless to say, Xiao Nanfeng is the male lead and a former soldier, so he must have noticed something was wrong as well. Fang Xu and Gong Yongqiang are Xiao Nanfeng's subordinates, both soldiers, so it's not surprising that they were the first to notice something was amiss.
