Qin Yilan looked at the people around her in panic, beads of sweat dripping down her cheeks. She said in a trembling voice, "Old Party Secretary, please forgive me this time! I was young and ignorant, so I did this kind of drunken behavior.
I really didn't mean it. As long as you let me go, I... I can give Du Damazi some more compensation.
I hope the village can suppress this matter, and I promise not to cause trouble for the village again."
Du Damazi shouted from the side, "No, I don't agree. You have to be responsible for me. Although you are not a virgin anymore, I am older than you. I don't despise you. You have to marry me.
If you dare not agree, I will go to the Revolutionary Committee and sue you for being a hooligan and for tarnishing my innocence."
Qin Yilan crawled over with her hands and feet, grabbed Du Damazi's trouser legs, and begged bitterly: "Grandpa Damazi, no, Uncle Damazi, can I give you money? I'll give you 100 yuan, and you'll let me go!"
Du Damazi shook his head. "Although I'm short of money, I'm even more short of a wife. I need to marry a wife to carry on my family line. No matter how much money you offer, it won't work."
Qin Yilan hurriedly said: "Du Damazi, why are you so stubborn? Can I give you 200 yuan?
The age gap between us is too big. You can be my grandfather now. It is really inappropriate. I will give you 200 yuan, which is enough for you to marry a wife."
Du Damazi shook his head. "Qin Zhiqing, how can you say that? You've slept with me, I'm already yours, how can you push me to someone else? I won't agree to it, just give up on it!"
Besides, even if I don’t sue you, so many villagers have seen us sleeping together, and I’m afraid that other members will report me. Qin Zhiqing, just agree to it!
Now that something like this has happened between us, you have no choice but to marry me. Do you want to go to jail?
Don't forget Yu Huanxiang and Yu Laonian. When Yu Huanxiang got into trouble, even Yu Fugui couldn't save her. Are you more powerful than Yu Fugui?"
The woman from Du Damazi's family also said earnestly, "Qin Zhiqing, I'm not saying anything bad about you. You're always so prone to causing trouble. If someone you don't like reports you, you'll still be arrested.
I advise you to accept your fate! If you say that you and Damazi are in a free love relationship, others won't be able to say anything.
I heard that your family background is quite problematic. It's good that Damazi doesn't despise you. Just agree to it!"
Qin Yilan glanced at Damazi with a cold gleam in her eyes, and said through gritted teeth: "Okay! I promise, everyone listen.
Du Damazi and I are in a free relationship, and there is no adultery. We will be getting married soon, and I hope everyone will come to enjoy the wedding candy and drink the wedding wine."
Du Jianguo and Feng Sanju exchanged a glance, and Feng Sanju smiled and said, "This matter ends here. The village will issue you two a letter of introduction right away. You should hurry to the Revolutionary Committee to get your certificates, so as to avoid any more trouble."
Du Jianguo immediately gave the two of them a letter of introduction and asked them to go to the commune to get a marriage certificate. Seeing that there was nothing to worry about, the others went home in twos and threes.
On the way back, Shi Aihong said puzzledly: "Jingqiu, Sister Zishan, this is really weird. It wasn't us who set Qin Yilan up this time. Could it really be Zhao Yaru who did it?"
Lin Zishan's face was filled with smiles, and she said happily: "Qin Yilan definitely didn't run there by herself this time, no matter who did it.
As long as Qin Yilan is in trouble, we are happy. I didn't expect that there would be someone to help us deal with this disaster."
Although Chu Jingqiu was happy, he also reminded the two, "Qin Yilan had already given up, even though she failed this time.
But judging by her expression, I definitely don't intend to live a good life with Du Damazi. Now this is the only way for her to escape. If she escapes, it's hard to say what will happen in the future."
After returning to the educated youth site, the three of them cooked a pot of cornmeal and sweet potato porridge, heated up a few vegetarian buns with cabbage and vermicelli, and had a hot breakfast with pickled mustard greens, kimchi and small vegetables.
After breakfast, Lin Zishan went to the village clinic. Wu Shuangshuang was knitting a sweater with Shi Aihong in her room.
Chu Jingqiu wanted to know the truth of the matter, so she locked the door and took Jiang Jiang into the space.
Jiang Jiang said happily: "Qiuqiu, it was Diao Lijun and Qiao Rucheng who carried Qin Yilan to Du Damazi's house last night.
I heard their movements last night and watched the surveillance for a while. There is no danger to us. Since you were sleeping, I didn't tell you.
I didn't expect that someone would come to inform you early in the morning before I could tell you. Qin Yilan is in big trouble this time!"
Chu Jingqiu smiled and touched Jiang Jiang's little head, "Jiang Jiang, you did a great job, you are such a smart little ghost, sister will stew some mutton for you later.
Please replay the surveillance video quickly. I want to see how Qin Yilan ran to Du Damazi's house."
Jiang Jiang ran over happily and started replaying the surveillance footage.
In the surveillance video, Zhao Yaru and Qin Yilan were seen talking and laughing as they came to the kitchen. There was a table full of dishes on the kitchen table, including stewed chicken with mushrooms, sauerkraut and pork, a braised fish, pickled cabbage, hot and sour shredded potatoes, and an egg soup.
There were a few bottles of white wine on the table. Qiao Rucheng, Diao Lijun and Yue Wenbin had already sat down. When they saw Zhao Yaru and Qin Yilan come in, they hurriedly asked them to sit down. Qiao Rucheng covered his nose in disgust.
Yue Wenbin stood up, holding up his glass, and said, "Today is Yaru's birthday. I specially prepared a few dishes for her and invited my brothers and Qin Zhiqing to celebrate with her.
This is Yaru's first birthday since we joined the queue. I hope Yaru becomes more and more beautiful, healthy, and everything goes well! Come on, cheers!
All five of them stood up, raised their glasses, said blessings, and drank a toast together."
The four of them prepared a gift for Zhao Yaru. Yue Wenbin gave Zhao Yaru a pen, Diao Lijun and Qiao Rucheng each gave Zhao Yaru a notebook, and Qin Yilan gave Zhao Yaru a hairpin.
After giving their gifts, the five people started drinking. It was very obvious that Qiao Rucheng and Diao Lijun kept toasting intentionally or unintentionally. It didn't take long before Zhao Yaru and Qin Yilan became drunk.
Diao Lijun filled Qin Yilan's glass with wine again. "Qin Zhiqing, you seem to be a shy girl, but I didn't expect you to be so generous when drinking. Come, let me toast you with another glass. I hope we can all take care of each other in the future and make progress together."
Qin Yilan was flattered and raised her glass with both hands and said, "Diao Zhiqing, you are too polite. We are both from Beijing, so of course we are much closer than others. Come, let's drink this glass. From now on, we will be good friends and make progress together!"
Diao Lijun watched Qin Yilan finish the wine in the glass, raised the corner of his mouth, and took the opportunity to pour the wine on the ground.
Zhao Yaru smiled strangely and quickly winked at Qiao Rucheng. Qiao Rucheng raised his glass and toasted Qin Yilan with the same glass. Qin Yilan once again drank the wine in the glass generously.
