Listening to Xia Linsheng's detailed complaints, Yu Sui didn't know what to say.
For her, it's just a temporary measure, not a real intention to get married.
But he is serious and thinks so carefully.
Yu Sui felt a little guilty.
She lowered her head and watched Xia Linsheng's feet sliding gently on the ground. She felt that he was actually nervous, or excited.
Yu Sui felt even more upset: "Well... Actually, as long as you trust me, it's okay if we don't get married yet. Otherwise, let's wait until we're two years old."
Xia Linsheng: "It's better to get married. You also said that people always criticize you. I don't want you to be wronged."
Yu Sui: “…”
Why do I feel like I've shot myself in the foot?
Besides, isn’t Yu Qiu a girl?
If she gets married, will she become another form of cannon fodder?
"I'm thinking, you and I are getting married... but we can't consummate the marriage, so what if you fall for someone else outside... wouldn't that be... not good?" Yu Sui gritted her teeth and looked up at Xia Linsheng boldly.
Xia Linsheng was obviously frightened by her bold remarks. He turned his neck helplessly and his face began to turn red again.
Then he reached out and patted Yu Sui on the head, "What are you thinking about, kid? There's no way you can do that!" After that, he left.
He walked quickly, as if he was embarrassed.
Yu Sui: “…”
What we are saying is that we have to get married now!
Well, let's take it one step at a time!
She is busy studying the replacement space.
As soon as Xia Linsheng left, Yu Sui entered the space again.
Nothing is more important than making money.
This time, Yu Sui wanted to buy some information.
She had no memory of this place, so she couldn't be completely clueless about it.
The next day was September 3rd, and she entered the date September 5th on the electronic screen, wanting to buy some old newspapers.
She knew that old newspapers were always sold online, but she wondered if the same could be done in this space.
Soon, various newspapers of that day appeared on the screen, such as Wenhui, Renmin, Cankao and so on. They were not cheap, costing twenty or thirty yuan per copy.
Yu Sui bought a set first. She had to compare these old newspapers to see which one would be more suitable for her to understand the times and achieve financial freedom as soon as possible.
She also bought an old version of the map. She remembered that her mother-in-law said that there was a Haicang County here. She needed to know and understand whether this place really existed or was fictitious.
Generally speaking, small towns have local chronicles that record some major local events. Can such things be purchased?
Yu Sui entered what she wanted and placed three hundred yuan on the ground.
Soon, several yellowed old newspapers and maps appeared on the ground, as well as a copy of the "Haicang County Local Chronicles" with worms' marks. It was published in August 1st and recorded the changes in this small county from the founding of the People's Republic of China to the early 1980s.
Yes, that’s enough for her to understand.
Then there is the circle of bruises on her neck, which always feels like evidence of a crime. Yu Sui wants to buy ointment to remove it.
She was familiar with this kind of medicine and it didn't cost much, so she bought a bottle of prepared blood-dissolving ointment. Just in case, she also bought a bottle of concealer.
Both of these things are very small. Yu Sui removed the outer wrapping paper, so even if someone found them, it wouldn't be a big deal.
Yu Sui immediately left the space, applied medicine on her neck, and started reading the old newspaper.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, my younger brother Yu Cheng came home from school with his schoolbag.
The boy was thirteen years old, not tall, but quite handsome. However, when he saw his sister, he habitually gave her a sour face: "Second sister, why aren't you working again?"
Yu Sui: "My throat isn't healed yet."
Yu Cheng: "You don't need your voice to mow the lawn."
Hey, this boy has a bad attitude towards his sister.
Yu Sui couldn't help but glance at him sideways: "I'm not eating your food, what's it to you?"
Yu Cheng: "I'm not controlling you, I'm worried about you! If you don't work, you won't have any dowry money and won't be able to get married."
Yu Sui laughed out loud: "Do you have any? Give me some, in case I can't get married and have to rely on you for support."
Yu Cheng threw his schoolbag away and angrily left home: "Lazy woman! You're so lazy that you have nothing! Chen Mingli is richer than you! I don't care about you anymore. I'll go to the back mountain to get bird eggs to feed you, okay?"
Yu Sui quickly stopped him and said, "Hey, wait a minute, let me ask you something."
Yu Chengxian stopped reluctantly: "What?"
"How do you know Chen Mingli is richer than me?"
"Chen Mingliang went to the state-owned noodle shop yesterday to buy some big pork noodles. A bowl of noodles cost over one yuan, but the meat was so huge, I was drooling. Chen Mingliang said his sister gave him the money. Second sister, think about it, how rich does Chen Mingli have to be to give money to her brother? Huh? I have two sisters, and neither of them has ever given me money to buy big pork noodles, huh!"
Yu Cheng said this angrily and ran away.
Yu Sui was still thinking about the information revealed by Yu Cheng.
This is actually very important.
Don't underestimate these few dollars. According to her understanding of this generation, the employees have very little money on hand.
Most production teams would only distribute dividends after a period of work was completed. Many families, due to various reasons throughout the period, advanced money, and it was common to only receive ten or twenty yuan in the end. Many families also owed money to the production team.
A bowl of noodles costs more than one yuan, just like people in later generations who earn 2,000 yuan but go out to eat a big meal that costs hundreds of yuan. It is not common.
So, Yu Cheng concluded from this that Chen Mingli is rich.
According to my stepmother, Chen Mingli is from a different family and is living here with her grandmother. Logically, Chen Mingli should not be much better off than Yu Sui. Why does Chen Mingli have extra money to buy noodles for her brother?
It seems I have to pay attention to it. I wonder if I can find Chen Mingli's motive for murder.
Yu Sui rolled up her sleeves and started cooking dinner.
When the last ray of sunset glow was left in the sky, the staff members went off work.
A family of four sat around the dinner table.
Yu Sui wanted to ask for more information, so she gave Yu Cheng some leftover bacon from lunch: "Well, isn't this meat? Don't envy others. I bought meat for you too. Isn't it better than Chen Mingliang's big meat noodles?"
Yu Cheng ate the meat and smiled: "This one is delicious, but the one Chen Mingliang ate is better. The meat is so big..."
Yu Cheng put down the bowl and gestured to the half-open bowl.
Yu Sui sighed: "Oh, how come Chen Mingli is so rich? Weird!"
Sun Yuying responded as expected, "Humph! They must have been neglected during the "Four Olds" movement! Old Lady Yu must have hidden some goodies. Since she doesn't have a son, her granddaughter will probably eat them all up."
It sounds like Old Lady Yu is referring to Chen Mingli's grandmother. As for hiding something...
Yu Sui was very curious: "What is hidden?"
Sun Yuying: "She was once a concubine of a capitalist family, but I haven't been one, so how can I know what she's hiding? Anyway, I've told you many times not to have too much contact with Chen Mingli. I heard that when she was young, Old Lady Yu was involved with RI people. Maybe she's an enemy spy!"
