Chapter 96
Time flies and it is already 1979.
After the Chinese New Year, Yu Yao and his wife, Gu Yu and his wife, as well as Gu's parents and their entire family went to Shanghai together. Of course, the two old men and Yu Sheng and his wife also went with them.
The Qin family's affairs have come to an end. Now that Qin Wu is dead, they have no reason to deny the fact that they are members of the Qin family.
When I saw Su Ye again, she seemed to be the same carefree little girl.
Her only worry was whether she should wear her own clothes or the ones in the store when she and Qin Chao went out to take pictures.
Yu Yao smiled and said, "Only children make choices, adults will of course want them all."
In the end, the couple took a few photos in the photo studio, and Yu Yao also took some photos for them at home, which made Su Ye look beautiful.
The wedding banquet of Qin Chao and Su Ye was particularly lively.
Especially now that the situation has become clearer, they have hired quite a few people.
Before this, the Qin family had already released the news that the family of the second son of the Qin family who had been living away from home had been found and that they would all attend the wedding banquet. Many people were interested in the Qin family's excitement.
Many people have the inherent impression that Qin Chao is a reckless person. He ran away in anger because his father brought back an illegitimate child.
Although they looked down on what Qin Wu did, they also looked down on Qin Chao. They felt that Qin Chao was challenging their father's authority and was fighting for power.
So they all thought that now that the people from the second branch of the Qin family had returned, Qin Chao would probably go crazy again. They wanted to see how he would face his relatives this time, and whether he would frame them without hesitation and send them to jail.
With all the excitement, everyone became even more curious about the people from the second branch of the Qin family.
Because of the appearance of Yu Yao and others, more and more people knew the inside story, and by the day of the wedding banquet, almost everyone knew the identities of these people from the second branch of the Qin family.
I had thought that they would have a hard time living away from home, but Qin Wen's children were more amazing than the other. The eldest was just a worker, but he was the son-in-law of a factory director; the second was just an employee at a newspaper, but his father-in-law was a brigade commander; and the third was not only admitted to Peking University, but his husband's family was also from the Gu family in Beijing.
It seems that my youngest son, who is still in junior high school, will also have a bright future.
Those people could only direct their attacks at the country wife Qin Wen married.
"I heard that she is a country woman who was born and raised in the countryside. I guess she wouldn't dare to come to such an occasion, right?"
"Don't talk nonsense. After all, she is the daughter-in-law of the Qin family. If you want to make fun of her, wait until you see that she is really bad."
"Oh, how good can she be?"
All kinds of sounds floated into Yu Yao's ears. She turned her head to look at her calm mother and gave her a thumbs up in her heart.
Jiang Limei was not a cowardly person. She was only scared once when Mr. Gu came to propose marriage. After that, she was never scared whether she met Zheng Ping, Zeng Yue and others, or the group of aunts and uncles of the Gu family. Now she felt no pressure facing these strangers.
I thought they would just walk away.
Who knew that when they walked past those people who were gossiping, Jiang Limei suddenly stopped and coughed lightly.
Those people looked at the mother and daughter in front of them with strange eyes. When they saw Yu Yao, they were stunned.
Yu Yao was already pretty, and after giving birth she became plumper and more feminine. She looked eye-catching in her outfit today. Jiang Limei had also been dressed up, and although she no longer looked young due to years of farm work, she was still very different from the country bumpkin that people had guessed.
But before they could guess the identities of the two people, Jiang Limei said, "Ladies and gentlemen, before you talk about someone behind their back, you should first confirm whether the person in question is present."
After these words were spoken, several people's faces changed.
Just because they look down on Jiang Limei doesn't mean they can afford to offend the Qin family.
Just when the atmosphere was awkward, Yu Yao saw a figure walking towards them quickly.
Without waiting for everyone to react, Yu Yao pulled Jiang Limei behind her and kicked the person's foot. The person's originally crooked body turned abruptly, and the large basin of soup in her hand was poured directly onto the people who had just been chatting.
The sound of breaking porcelain and a woman's scream rang out at the same time, instantly attracting the attention of everyone in the hotel.
Yu Yao: “…” I can only say that it is fate.
"What's wrong?" Gu Qing was talking to someone outside. When he heard the noise coming from inside, he rushed in immediately, followed by Zeng Yue and her group who were holding a child.
"It's okay. This guy has some problems. He rushed up and tried to throw something at me. I dodged and accidentally threw something at those people." Yu Yao said and winked at Gu Qing.
Gu Qing raised his eyebrows, stepped forward and pulled the waiter up from the ground, "Comrade, are you okay?"
"No...it's okay. I'm sorry. It was my fault." The woman lowered her head and kept her eyes down. She didn't dare to look at Gu Qing at all when she stood in front of him, as if she was extremely scared.
The people who were nearby gathered around. The two people who were just splashed by the soup were now extremely frantic and furious.
They had dressed up nicely to attend today's wedding banquet, but now everything is ruined because of these people.
Although they wanted to leave immediately, their clothes were destroyed and they had to get compensation anyway.
"I think you did it on purpose. You splashed something on the girl, and when you found out they were hiding, you took a detour and splashed the soup on us. Who sent you to ruin the wedding banquet?"
Yu Yao couldn't help but glance at the woman who was speaking. She didn't expect that the person who had been gossiping about other people just now still had some brains and deliberately made the matter more serious, not only to divert everyone's attention, but also to attract attention.
"Did you do this on purpose?" Gu Qing followed the man's words and his voice became colder.
"No, I don't." The young waiter quickly turned around to show his innocence.
But the woman couldn't let her off and angrily said, "You did it on purpose. So many people were watching us. If you didn't do it on purpose, then why didn't you suddenly turn?"
Of course the waitress knew that it was Yu Yao's trick that made her change her mind, but when she looked up and saw Yu Yao's half-smile, she trembled and dared not speak.
"What's wrong, are you dumb? Do you think you can get away with not saying anything?"
"What's going on?" The hotel manager came running over and was stunned when he saw the mess on the floor.
Who dares to cause trouble at the Qin family's wedding banquet?
"How do you do your job?" he shouted at the waiter.
The waiter's eyes turned red, but he was still trembling and looked like he was bullied.
"Manager, does this person work in your hotel? We suspect she did it on purpose."
Gu Qing looked very imposing when he had a cold face, and now seeing him standing there straight, it is easy to guess that he is a soldier.
The military comrades have spoken, so the manager certainly cannot just let the matter go.
He saw that the waitress was indeed a waitress from his own hotel. She was usually well-behaved and had never made any mistakes. It was strange that she had done something wrong in such a big scene.
"On purpose? Why would you do that?" he asked the waiter.
"I didn't, I really didn't mean to, it's just... I just almost tripped accidentally, and the soup was about to spill on this girl, but she dodged and tripped me again, so I turned the corner again, wuwu..."
The waitress would talk more in front of familiar people, but why did what she said sound so uninspiring to Yu Yao?
"You blame me for this?" Yu Yao couldn't help but curled his lips and said sarcastically.
The manager wanted to find a scapegoat, but the girl in front of him was obviously not someone to be trifled with. He did not dare to neglect her, so he could only teach the waiter a lesson, "Since it was not intentional, it was a serious mistake. You can forget your salary this month, write a self-review, and you have to pay for the clothes and medical expenses of these two people."
If a manager has been dealing with people in such situations for a long time, he must be a shrewd person.
He knew the two people who were splashed with soup. Although they were not from wealthy families, they were not people who could be easily provoked. They stayed here even though they were so vicious. It was obvious that they wanted an explanation.
The hotel does not lack this little money, but it cannot be taken advantage of. Besides, this couple obviously wants her to be responsible for it.
They must be really angry to be so persistent with a waiter.
"Go with these two and deal with it first. Come back to me later." The manager asked another person to follow them and then came to Gu Qing and the others. "I'm so sorry for scaring you just now."
In fact, as the manager of a state-owned hotel, he does not need to be so cautious. However, the people who came today are all people of status, and he does not know all of them, so he can only entertain them carefully.
Yu Yao said nonchalantly: "It's okay, the manager has handled it very well, sorry for the trouble." Since the waiter just now didn't tell the truth, it must be useless to go to the manager.
So it was just a nice word, Yu Yao didn't care and quickly dismissed it.
But this manager was a difficult person and asked about Yu Yao and Gu Qing's backgrounds in an apologetic manner. He learned that Yu Yao was the granddaughter adopted by the Qin family and Gu Qing was from the Gu family in Beijing. He immediately became more enthusiastic and secretly thanked God that he did not protect the people in the hotel casually.
"Manager, you are too polite. Please go ahead and do your work. Don't worry about us. We can take care of it on our own."
Yu Yao ordered the manager to leave, and he immediately understood and left without any hesitation.
After his compliments, everyone around him knew that these people were the main characters they were going to meet today.
Yu Yao is the granddaughter, and the woman next to her is naturally Qin Wen’s country wife.
When people saw him, they thought that his temperament didn't look like that of a man who worked on the farm all year round. Where did these rumors come from?
Yu Yao and the others ignored their gazes and walked aside with Gu Qing.
"I'm sure that the man did it on purpose." It's very difficult to do something bad to someone intentionally and naturally, and the man looked guilty after being helped up, which clearly showed that there was something wrong.
Gu Qing nodded solemnly, "I understand. I'll ask someone to check her out."
They didn't take this matter too seriously, and they all thought that it was the Qin family that caused the trouble. They probably dealt with Yu Yao in order to embarrass her and the Qin family.
When Yu Yao trusts someone, she won't have any doubts. Now she trusts Qin Chao very much and has never thought that this might have been done by Qin Chao.
Qin Chao should be well aware that no one in his family would pose any threat to his position.
The wedding banquet began soon. After a simple ceremony for the newlyweds, Mr. Qin introduced several people from the Yu family.
When the others heard that their surname was still Yu, they had their own thoughts.
Most people still think that these people are not liked by Master Qin, otherwise why didn't they even change their names? And why did Qin Wen change his last name when he went out?
And what about Qin Wen’s whereabouts? Why doesn’t anyone make it clear whether he is dead or not?
If he is not dead, why didn't he show up today?
Everyone had a lot of questions, but everyone was very clear about what the focus of today was. Seeing that the Qin family was very happy, no one dared to step forward to spoil their fun.
In fact, today's wedding banquet is also very interesting. Everyone knows that Qin Chao was desperate for the daughter of Xie family. And the girl from Su family is more than ten years younger than him. It's an old man and a young wife, which is very interesting.
It is said that older people tend to be caring towards others. I wonder if the unruly Qin Dynasty was also like this.
When Qin Chao was toasting, many people joked with him, "Qin Chao, you are so lucky. Our Su girl is a college student. Many young men in Shanghai can't even ask for her."
The person who was speaking was at least in his forties or fifties, and could be considered a member of the Qin dynasty's father's generation. His words sounded like he was complimenting them, but they were rather eerie.
Qin Chao didn't care whether he was from his father's or grandfather's generation. He said bluntly, "Don't talk nonsense. Su Ye is my wife. Who dares to covet her?"
Su Ye is beautiful, young, and comes from a well-off family. Qin Chao also knows that he has many rivals in love, but is it appropriate to say such things on this occasion?
When the guest was feeling annoyed but didn't know what to say, the people around him all looked towards the door.
When they saw the newcomer, everyone had different expressions.
Who else could the woman holding a child at the door be if not Xie Yinyin?
Everyone started whispering to each other, and even Yu Yao couldn't help but whisper to Gu Qing, "What is she doing here?"
How would Gu Qing know?
However, during the two days he was in Shanghai, he did hear some things about Xie Yinyin.
Since the Xie family fell from power, Xie Yinyin married a worker who had liked her for a long time. The man was even willing to be a successor and raise the baby in her belly.
But Xie Yinyin was used to a good life. Even though the man was a worker, the conditions at home could never be compared with those of the Xie family.
Not to mention that after giving birth to a child, she will need to take care of the child herself. Looking at Xie Yinyin's situation, she is not mentally mature yet. How can she take care of a child?
Later, she came back to see Qin Chao several times, but was naturally turned away every time.
Now I don’t know why I came here.
Qin Chao also saw the other party, but he looked away after just one glance. Then he took Su Ye's hand and continued to introduce Qin's relatives to Su Ye.
Su Ye never doubted Qin Chao's feelings for her, mainly because she had seen Xie Yinyin's true face and no longer regarded her as her opponent.
If Qin Chao still likes her after all they've been through, then Su Ye will look down on Qin Chao. It's better to get rid of such a brainless man as soon as possible.
Fortunately, the current Qin Dynasty still seems relatively reliable.
Thinking of this, Su Ye smiled even more sincerely.
They were busy with their own things and no one paid any attention to the mother and son standing at the door. The two of them looked like a joke.
Soon Su Ye and Yu Yao sat down and started eating, and she sat directly next to Yu Yao.
Yu Yao could be considered as half a matchmaker between her and Qin Chao, although she had been against Qin Chao before.
Since she was treated as a matchmaker and was a member of the Qin family, her position was naturally very good. Su Ye sitting next to her attracted a lot of people's attention.
"What happened to Xie Yinyin? Did it affect you two?"
Su Ye shook her head. "No, Qin Chao ignored her. If he came back, I would really look down on him."
I didn't expect Su Ye to be so carefree. I guess it's because Qin Chao gave her enough sense of security.
"It's good that you know what's going on. You should pay attention. You're not afraid of Qin Chao turning back, but you're afraid of others playing some shady tricks."
Some people will go crazy if they don't get what they want. Yu Yao is not worried about the big bosses in the Qin Dynasty, but he is afraid that he might accidentally hurt Su Ye.
Su Ye nodded, "I understand. I will be careful."
The two were whispering when there was a noise over there.
"Dad, this is your Qin family's grandson, you can't just ignore him."
Old Master Qin looked at the woman in front of him with a dark face. He really regretted not dealing with Qin Wu decisively. If he could resolutely refuse Qin Fang from entering the house, their Qin family would not have to face one joke after another now.
But since it has become a joke, how could Mr. Qin still be affected by her words, not to mention the opinions of outsiders.
"When Qin Fang got into trouble, I didn't chase you out. It was you who insisted on divorcing Qin Fang and marrying someone else. If you want to send this child back to the Qin family today, I will take him in and teach him well in the future, but don't even think about anything else."
Everyone was surprised. This old man Qin had already thrown his face to the ground and didn't care about it anymore.
Everyone has elderly people in their family, and we all know that the older people get, the more they care about their reputation. No elderly person would talk about the ugly things in their family so casually.
But seeing how calm Mr. Qin is, he really doesn't care about anything.
Everyone can see that this daughter of the Xie family is useless.
While she is married, she hooks up with men everywhere. Even if she doesn't like those men, she always takes advantage of them. Isn't this the same as those prostitutes in ancient times?
The most important thing is that people look down on them and only have the Qin Dynasty in their hearts.
What a pity. Qin Chao pursued her so much at the beginning, but she always ignored him. Now that Qin Chao is married, she still comes to make trouble. I don’t know what she is talking about!
"I know why you came today. Isn't it just to make me angry that I, an old man, have caused trouble for Qin Chao?"
After these words were spoken, everyone looked at Old Man Qin in surprise, even Xie Yinyin was stunned.
But the old man hadn't finished speaking yet.
He continued, "I'm already so old, what have I not seen? Put away those little thoughts of yours, you have been bossing my grandson around since he was little, I see you are old man Xie's granddaughter I won't bother with you, a little girl, but now you are getting ahead of yourself!"
In the silence, he coughed lightly, "Today is a good day for my Qin family. Not only is my grandson getting married, but my second son and his family are also back. I am happy and don't care about you. It's up to you whether the child stays or not. You can go on your own!"
"I'm putting my words here. If there is a next time, I will definitely not show mercy."
After the words fell, the place became even more silent. No one dared to pick up their chopsticks, let alone speak. They only dared to exchange glances with each other.
Perhaps it was because the old man's aura behind him was too intimidating, the little kid was so scared that he held on to his mother tightly, with tears in his eyes, looking very pitiful.
But he has such a mother, no one will pity him.
Xie Yinyin finally left, leaving in a hurry with her child in her arms.
Old Master Qin didn't even look at her back, he stood up and said, "Excuse me for making a fool of myself, this is a problem that should have been solved long ago, just eat and drink, don't let it affect our mood."
Everyone smiled and returned to normal, but after watching such a good show, it was impossible not to discuss it.
At this time, Yu Yao finally realized that as long as you don't feel embarrassed, it's other people's feelings that are embarrassed.
Qin Chao and Su Ye had always been open and honest, treating Xie Yinyin's appearance just now as just a small episode. No one could affect them in any way, and the wedding banquet went smoothly.
It was not until the next day that Yu Yao told Su Ye about the strange waiter who happened yesterday.
"Why didn't you tell me yesterday that we should let Qin Chao investigate it?" Why did they let Gu Qing investigate what happened here?
Yu Yao smiled and said, "You are being too polite. It doesn't matter who is investigating. I told you this because I wanted you to remind him to be careful and not fall into his trap. The same goes for you."
Hearing this, Su Ye nodded and said apologetically, "Okay, I understand. I will tell him. You don't have to worry too much."
The two had not seen each other for a long time, and Su Ye was newly married. Yu Yao had a lot of experience to share with her, and soon Su Ye blushed and dared not speak.
Although she seems heartless, she actually cares a lot about the people around her.
So the first thing she did after coming down was to tell Qin Chao about the waiter, but she didn't expect that Qin Chao already knew about it yesterday, and now he has found out some clues.
"Wheelchair?" Su Ye frowned and asked, "Do you know who it is?"
She thought for a long time but couldn't think of anyone in a wheelchair around her.
Qin Chao rubbed her hair. This girl is very energetic and can jump around early in the morning.
"Don't worry about it. Gu Qing and I will take care of it. You can take Yu Yao and the others around."
Since she said so, Su Ye knew that he had his own plans.
This is probably the advantage of having an older partner. Qin Chao has arranged everything properly, and she only needs to do her own thing.
So in the following days, Su Ye took Yu Yao, Gu Yu, Cao Meiling and others for strolls around, and she also took Yu Yao to their school.
Yu Yao saw some design drafts of Su Ye and Liao He, and had to say that their university studies were not in vain. In just one short year, their designs had become much more mature than before.
The two have different design directions, but both have made progress to varying degrees. Yu Yao is very happy for them.
After some free time, Yu Yao gave Su Ye some suggestions on her clothing design, which surprised Su Ye.
"Has the design level in Beijing been so high now? Ah Yao, how come you hit the point right away?" Su Ye looked at the clothes that had only the lines slightly changed, and the style had completely changed, yet it was still stable and beautiful.
But when she went to a department store in Beijing before, she found that the goods there seemed not as good as those in Shanghai.
Yu Yao's knowledge was certainly not something she had learned naturally, but something she had imported from later generations. She herself did not know much about clothing design, and could only offer some suggestions based on the clothes she had seen that she thought would make the clothes look better.
But she couldn't say anything, so she could only pretend to be casual and said, "No, I just think it looks better this way."
Su Ye was even more surprised, and finally murmured, "You are really a genius."
Genius Yu Yao: “…” Thank you.
"You can design more and save them. I want to open a clothing factory in the future, and then the designs for our factory will depend on you."
In this day and age, not opening a clothing factory is a waste of resources.
"When?" Su Ye was shocked.
"Maybe next year."
The important policy will be promulgated soon, and then it will be their time to show their talents.
After fooling Su Ye for a while, Su Ye promised that he would study harder and design more and better-looking clothes.
Hearing her say this, Yu Yao was satisfied.
Even if the things you design now cannot be used in the future, it is still a kind of accumulation. You will be able to get started faster in the future when you are learning. Besides, it only takes a few months, so your enthusiasm will not be exhausted.
"You can also design some small accessories, including shoes and bags, but I personally think it should be a little more focused, so as not to lose the big picture while picking up sesame seeds."
Su Ye always thinks seriously about what Yu Yao says, and she agrees with it very much. "The teacher also said so, but matching is something that must be learned, so we have to try it."
Yu Yao nodded, "Yes."
In fact, most of the time, what you learn in college is probably more of theoretical knowledge. Theoretical knowledge can also be summarized in the process of practice, but it is definitely impossible to be systematic and comprehensive, which makes it easy to take many detours.
However, when we know the facts and the reasons behind them, we can not only avoid all the pitfalls, but at least we can quickly find the problems and correct them in time after falling into them.
Most of Yu Yao and his group needed to work, so they did not stay in Shanghai for long.
After playing for a few days, they returned to Beijing.
Jiang Limei and her friends also returned to Wanyuan County.
After returning to Beijing, Yu Yao realized that the waiter who wanted to cheat her was most likely hired by Liu Yang.
"Liu Yang?" It had been a long time since I heard this name. When I heard it again, I felt a little dazed. "Where is he?"
There was no need to ask why Yu Yao did this, it must have been for revenge.
But his revenge was to throw a bowl of soup on her? At least he had to throw sulfuric acid on her to relieve his hatred, right?
Yu Yao's expression became serious. She did not forget that she was a character in a book and Liu Yang was the protagonist.
The protagonist usually has extraordinary luck, so it must be very easy for him to deal with himself.
"Even if he is not found, I don't know if he will take the next step."
Gu Qing, Qin Chao, and Su Li all mobilized their own connections to look for him. It should be easy to find a person in a wheelchair, but they didn't get any useful information at all.
"Maybe we made a mistake and he may have gone into hiding or gone to another place." Either way, this was not good news for them.
It's like being stared at by a rat hiding in the gutter, which makes people feel uncomfortable.
"That's right. You have to be careful. You never know if he will suddenly show up in Beijing. You have to keep an eye on the children."
Yu Yao nodded.
Now Jiang Limei has returned to Wanyuan County, Zeng Yue has to go to work, and Yu Yao still has to go to school, so they have to find someone to help take care of the children. Yu Yao is still a little worried.
"We'll go find Dad later. I think we can start the business of our security company in advance and then register the company next year or some other time."
Gu Qing understood what she meant, "Are you talking about hiring a bodyguard for our family?"
"Yes, just find two female bodyguards. Our bodyguards don't have to be like those security guards. They can live in our house like the aunties, but we don't need them to do housework."
Of course you can also do housework, in that case, you will definitely get more rewards.
It is equivalent to finding a confinement nanny who knows martial arts, which will definitely ensure the safety of the child.
Gu Qing immediately understood what Yu Yao meant. "This is indeed much more convenient. We can feel more at ease. I will accompany you to find dad."
Naturally, Gu Wu had no objection to Yu Yao's idea.
He wished Yu Yao would put this matter on the agenda earlier. Only recently, after he learned about some of the future developments, he was no longer so anxious.
After hearing what Yu Yao said, he felt relieved. His daughter-in-law was indeed talented in this area.
Since they had already made arrangements and decided to do it, they quickly started to act.
Gu Wu had already started looking for candidates when Yu Yao first proposed this idea.
There are many kinds of accidents in their line of work. Every year, many veterans retire. After returning, some can barely fill their stomachs, while others can only struggle to survive.
The pickle factory had already solved the most difficult batch before. He had tasted the sweetness and naturally wanted to continue working hard.
So before school started, Yu Yao met eight veterans carefully selected by Gu Wu, including five men and three women.
Yu Yao had them all brought to a courtyard house that they had bought. She wanted to train these people to become the backbone of the security company, but it was not an easy task and required careful work.
"The person who brought you here should have already told you about the situation here. Before you officially start working, I will give you a one-month trial period. If you are suitable after a month, you can continue to follow me. If you are not suitable, I will find other places for you, of course, if you are willing to go."
"I only have one request here, obey orders."
Yu Yao stood in front of several people. Her voice and tone were soft. She appeared inexplicably and said just a few words, which made everyone stunned.
At this time, the tallest woman among them asked first, "What are the assessment criteria?"
Yu Yao nodded slightly, expressing her approval, and said, "The assessment criteria are not unique. I will observe your words and deeds, your style of doing things, and your completion of tasks. I will definitely record any deficiencies. But I can guarantee that if you hold yourselves to the discipline you had in the army before, you will definitely be able to stay."
"You should also know that the compensation I give you will not be lower than when you were in the army."
If you want a horse to run, you must first feed it grass. Yu Yao still understands this principle.
The few people who originally had many doubts suddenly didn't want to ask anything anymore. The old leader said that they would not be asked to do anything bad and they just needed to follow orders.
With such high wages, what else could they be dissatisfied with?
Who would have thought that the cute little girl in front of them would suddenly change the subject and guess what they were thinking.
"I know you must have a lot of doubts in your hearts, and you may be dissatisfied with me being the one in charge. Maybe you are thinking, that's all? She's just a little girl, what's so great about her? Isn't she unreliable?"
Several people felt a little embarrassed.
The reason they stood here obediently and listened to the little girl was simply because they trusted their old leader and were tempted by the salary.
But what I thought in my heart was one thing, and now that she had exposed it in person was another matter entirely.
Yu Yao did not get angry, but took out two big Tuanjie notes from his pocket and put them on the table, saying: "Now I'll give you a chance to question me. Here is twenty yuan. You can challenge me. Whoever wins will get the twenty yuan."
Upon hearing this, several people's eyes lit up.
All of them are not doing well in their hometowns. They don't have a chance to get a formal job, so they may not be willing to come.
So twenty dollars is quite tempting for them.
The burly man standing at the edge stepped forward first and asked, "What are you competing for?"
"Arm wrestling, boxing, archery, endurance, anything you can think of that you might encounter when sparring with others in the army, you can compete."
Several people were silent again.
No way, could this girl be some kind of hidden master?
But this seems a little too unreliable.
Seeing that they remained silent, Yu Yao said, "I told you that this opportunity only comes once today. If you don't dare to challenge me today, then don't question me in the future, unless you don't want to do it anymore."
"But there is only one copy of the money." It was the man who spoke again.
Yu Yao smiled and said, "Don't worry that I can't pay you. Stop talking nonsense. Come on. I know you all want the twenty yuan."
Everyone was still a little hesitant to take action, but they were not the timid people in the past. Seeing Yu Yao insist, a short girl stood up.
Her name is Yu Qin, and she looks the youngest among the group. But she just looks young. If you look closely at her eyes, you can see some traces of age.
It seems that Yu Yao cannot compare to his spirit and energy.
"Let me do the arm wrestling."
This is the least likely way to get hurt.
Yu Yao naturally agreed, "Then let's arm wrestle."
The two sat facing each other. After stretching out their arms, Yu Yao's slender and fair arms formed a sharp contrast with the other's wheat-colored skin.
No one thought that Yu Yao would win. Even if she was stronger, how much stronger could she be? Could she beat those of them who had been trained with real guns and bullets and often did physical labor?
Yu Qin didn't want to underestimate any of her opponents, but Yu Yao looked too easy to bully. She didn't dare to use force when she shook his hand, for fear that she would make him cry.
Yu Yao doesn't care about other people's contempt, she always talks about the results.
The two put hands together, and Yu Yao said, "Let's begin."
The other nodded, and they both slowly exerted force together.
Originally, everyone thought that it was just an arm wrestling match and the winner should be decided quickly, and Yu Yao would definitely lose.
However, what was unexpected was that when both of them started to exert their strength, they felt that they were evenly matched.
But only Yu Qin knew that it was not an even match. She was simply being led by Yu Yao, who kept using all his strength to almost suppress her.
After a while, several people began to realize that something was wrong.
Because Yu Qin's hands had begun to tremble slightly, while Yu Yao was still calm and composed, but the blue veins on her hands showed that she still used some strength.
At this time, Yu Qin had to admit that she really couldn't seem to beat the opponent. The opponent's calm look was enough to defeat her.
Her hands loosened, but Yu Yao did not crush her. This showed that Yu Yao could control her strength freely, and she still had a lot of room.
"I lost." Yu Qin said.
She has never been a person who underestimates herself. At this moment, she does not think that she is too weak, but that the other party is too strong.
Yu Yao nodded, "Thank you." Then he looked at the others, "Next."
One of the men immediately sat where Yu Qin had just sat and asked, "Do you need to rest for a while?"
Having just gone through so much hardship, Yu Yao would suffer a great loss if he were to compete now. However, Yu Yao shook his head, stretched out his hand in a gesture of preparation, and said, "No need, come on."
Now everyone has a different understanding of her strength, but they still don't think Yu Yao can beat them. What if that girl named Yu Qin is not good enough?
However, this time facing his opponent, he showed no mercy and with a slight effort, he was knocked down by Yu Yao in an instant.
Everyone was stunned. "Gang Zi, are you not prepared?"
The man called Gangzi's face flushed red. He really wanted to say that he was not ready, but he knew very well that he was ready and the result would be the same even if he did it again.
"I lost."
Everyone was surprised, but they also gradually began to believe that Yu Yao was truly talented.
Then the third person stood up, then the fourth, and the fifth. Yu Yao arm wrestled with seven people in a row, and without exception, they all lost to Yu Yao.
Yu Yao appeared calm on the surface, but secretly thought that these people would not turn back until they hit a wall. Why did they have to compete in arm wrestling?
Fortunately, the tall man standing next to him did not choose to fight to the death, but said: "I don't think I can win in an arm wrestling match with you, so why don't we have a few moves, and whoever falls to the ground first loses."
Yu Yao smiled and did not refuse.
The two men stood in the yard, and it seemed that the difference in strength between them was too great.
But now no one was sure that Yu Yao would lose.
Even the men themselves think so.
He looked at Yu Yao who was standing straight, and said, "I'm sorry." Then he swung his fist towards Yu Yao's jaw, but Yu Yao stood like a pine tree, not afraid at all.
Just as the fist was about to touch her face, she reached out and grabbed the other person's wrist.
Then, everyone in the yard saw Yu Yao grab the wrist of a 1.80-meter-tall man with one hand, lift him up and throw him to the ground.
Before the big man could react to what was happening, he was already lying on the ground.
He stayed on the ground for a long time before he realized that he was so easily knocked over by a little girl.
Yu Yao knew that he was shocked, so she did not provoke him. Instead, she waited until he digested the shock and got up from the ground before she started talking.
"I am fighting with you today to let you know that there are always people better than you in this world, and you should never underestimate anyone."
"What you have to do in the future is to protect others and their property. I believe you have encountered such missions in the army. Many times, the failure of a mission is not due to your lack of ability, but because of carelessness and underestimation of the enemy. The enemy may use various unexpected or despicable methods to make your mission fail."
After saying this, she smiled sweetly again.
"Of course, my victory over you just now was legitimate."
"This twenty dollars has always been here. You can work hard. Once you think you can beat me, come find me."
"Do you have any questions for me now?"
