Chapter 111: The Unmarried Man
Huanglong Village Youth House
"Taking a shower is really so inconvenient? Alas!" This was the fourth time Wu Ruirui wailed.
Last time I took a shower in my room, I almost froze to death. Even though I got into bed in time, I still sneezed several times.
Li Meng didn't feel anything. After all, she was just pretending to get some water and then went into the space to take a shower to hide from others.
Today, Li Laidi called them over to help press down the fluffed quilt so that it would be easier to sew. At this moment, she and Wu Ruirui were lying on Li Laidi's kang to press down the quilt for her!
"Okay, stop yelling. Next time you take a bath, I'll borrow you a big wooden tub. You can sit in it and take a bath, and you won't be cold," said Li Laidi while sewing a quilt.
"I don't want it. Who knows if that big basin was used for slaughtering pigs before? I don't want it," Wu Ruirui said with a look of disgust.
After hearing what Wu Ruirui said, Li Laidi and Li Meng shook their heads in amusement. Wu Ruirui really has a rich imagination.
"Next time I'll ask Sister Hong and maybe I can get a big wooden barrel, and then a bath cover. You told me earlier, or I would have asked yesterday."
Yes, Li Meng went to town yesterday, restocked the goods, and paid wages to the Song brothers and Mr. Song. The Chinese New Year is about a week away, and this is a good time to make money and cannot be missed.
"Hey, didn't I forget about it? It's all my fault." Wu Ruirui patted his head in annoyance.
"I'll ask again when I go there in a few days. I guarantee you can take a nice hot bath." Li Meng looked at Wu Ruirui with amusement as he looked regretful.
"By the way, did Yao Yuan come to see you?" Li Laidi suddenly asked this!
"No, he didn't come to see me?" Li Meng asked in surprise. What's wrong with Yao Yuan? Isn't he getting married? I heard it was like that before the New Year.
"I didn't come to find you, I came to find me," Wu Ruirui said with a pout.
"Ah, I went to find you, why haven't I heard about you?" Li Meng asked curiously.
"It happened this morning, when I came here to ask my sister-in-law for some wool, and I met her," Wu Ruirui shrugged.
"It's nothing serious. I haven't agreed yet. I said I'd think about it when I get home. He's getting married soon, isn't he? He wants me to take some photos of him at his wedding, and it would be even better if I could do makeup for the bride."
"Then why don't you agree?" Li Laidi and Li Meng asked in unison, curious why Wu Ruirui didn't agree immediately.
Recently, this little girl is the fastest and most hardworking when it comes to making money. She was also the most enthusiastic when she went to the next village to take pictures of the villagers. Why didn't she agree to this money-making opportunity?
Wu Ruirui pouted and said, "Think about it, we don't have a good relationship to begin with. Besides, it doesn't matter if I don't go. But if I go, don't I have to pay a share of the money? How much can I make from taking photos? I won't do it if I have to pay 3 yuan!"
Hahahaha, hearing this, the two of them laughed so hard that they fell over. This little money-grubber is quite good at calculating.
"You can charge him a little more money. Isn't it already inside? Besides, it's a great thing that you can practice your skills there," Li Meng said with a smile.
"Yeah, it would be a waste if you don't accept it. If you want more, if he gives you money, you go, if he doesn't, you don't go. Just think about it this way, isn't it? The New Year is coming soon, and the clothes you asked Mengmeng to bring you last time will arrive soon, right? If you earn more money, you can buy two pieces if they are nice, right?" Li Laidi also persuaded with a smile.
"You are right. I will go and talk to Yao Zhiqing right away," Wu Ruirui was about to turn around and get up from the kang, but Li Laidi pushed her back with his sharp eyes. She could not go anywhere until she had finished sewing the quilt!
Wu Ruirui could only lie back down helplessly, with a look of helplessness on his face.
Pei Yu on this side was not so happy. He was stopped by He Mei again on the way back to the dormitory.
"Brother Pei, my brother asked me to call you and ask you to come to his house for dinner tonight. You must come?" After saying that, he smiled and ran away without waiting for Pei Yu to answer!
Xie Lei found this scene extremely disgusting.
"Brother Yu, did you see that? Oh my god, he covered his mouth and laughed while running. How could he be so pretentious?"
I have to say that Xie Lei is the straightest of straight men. He is probably also a face control and a straight man who likes to look at faces.
This squad leader He applied for the family compound after he got married. They have been married for less than 2 years and his wife is not pregnant yet, so every day either the mother-in-law or the sister-in-law comes to visit. I guess squad leader He's wife must be having a headache.
This is squad leader He! He is another mama's boy who dotes on his sister. Basically, he will help his sister in any way he can when she wants to do something. I guess it was He Mei who came up with the idea this time.
"Come with me in the evening!" Pei Yu said to Xie Lei.
"Can't you see? This is the Hongmen Banquet, and you still go? What if he forces you to have sex with me? Brother Yu, your innocence as a virgin will be ruined. I advise you not to go!" Xie Lei sighed to Pei Yu.
"So I asked you to go with me?" Pei Yu turned around and looked at Xie Lei who was still mumbling.
"They didn't call me, so how could I have the nerve to go there?" Xie Lei said disdainfully.
"A can of spicy rabbit cubes and a can of meat sauce, do you want to go?" Pei Yu said lightly.
"Hey, what are you talking about? Don't you have to go? Brother Yu, don't worry! As long as I am here, I will protect your innocence. For you, I will go through fire and water. I will fight to the death," Xie Lei promised, patting his chest.
Pei Yu gave him a displeased look. This guy didn't go through fire and water for him, but for a bite of delicious food!
Soon it was time for dinner. Pei Yu took two meals and took Xie Lei to the door of Squad Leader He's house.
"Remember to act according to circumstances, don't talk nonsense, and keep a close eye on He Mei's hand movements," Pei Yu whispered.
In the dormitory, the two of them discussed that the purpose of inviting Pei Yu to dinner this time might not be so simple, so they thought about the possible troubles they might encounter, such as being forced to drink alcohol, or having drugs put in the food, etc. It is important to be on guard against others, so it is better to be vigilant.
"Don't worry, Brother Yu, we must make things clear tonight. This rat spirit makes me sick the moment I see it." Xie Lei said with a grin, his eyes full of disgust.
Pei Yu went straight up and knocked on the door. Knock, knock, knock...
"Coming, coming." It was He Mei who opened the door. Seeing Pei Yu carrying something at the door, she smiled with a star-like face and her eyes were squeezed together.
At this time, Xie Lei poked his head out from behind Pei Yu with a sly smile on his face.
"Miss He, do you mind if I come along and have a free meal? Brother Yu was supposed to eat with me, but you guys called me, so I came along. Do you mind an extra pair of chopsticks?"
He Mei gritted her teeth. This damn Xie Lei was really a nuisance!
