Chapter 76

At noon, Qiao Yu was ready to fool the children and revolutionary comrades again.

Before the match was lit, a noise was heard coming from the courtyard gate.

“Qiao…Is Qiao Mei here?”

“I’m coming, coming! Who is it?” She said this in a loud voice with a friendly smile on her face.

After seeing Bai Yu, her good mood quickly faded, her smile faded, and she said unhappily: “What are you doing here?”

“Sister Qiao…”

“Comrade Bai, we are not familiar with each other.”

“Okay, Comrade Qiao.” Bai Yu tilted her head and looked in the direction of the living room, and said: “Is Zhou Tuan at home?”

“Oh? Are you here to see our Old Zhou?”

“No, no, no, Comrade Qiao, I’m here to see you. I also brought a gift.”

Qiao Yu glanced at the few ounces of brown sugar, and saw the expression clearly written on the other person’s face: See, am I sincere enough?

Qiao Yu rolled his eyes and said, “If you have something to say, just say it.”

Brown sugar certainly works.

Bai Yu said bluntly: “Can I have a word with you?”

Can I have a word with you?

Qiao Yu raised her eyebrows slightly. Are they colleagues or good friends? Need to discuss business or personal matters?

None, why should she borrow my time to talk?

Instead, Qiao Yu took a step back, putting some distance between them.

“I’m talking to Sister Bai.”

There was a cracked expression on Bai Yu’s face.

She was already smiling apologetically, but this guy actually called her “big sister”? !

Is she that old?

Uneducated stuff!

Qiao Yu saw her expression and knew that she was holding something back, so he said bluntly: “Sister, are we on good terms? So good that you need me to talk to you? Oh my god, at your age, have you forgotten that you wanted to frame me when we first met?

If I let you talk to me, who knows if you will frame me again? I look stupid, so why would I give you this opportunity? If you want to say something, say it here!”

Bai Yu’s face turned blue for a while, then pale for a while, and she forced a smile after a while, “I really have something to say… Are you sure you want to say it here? There will be a lot of gossip when there are too many people.”

“That’s why there need to be more people, so that there will be witnesses if you framed me! Hurry up and say it, or get out. I’m too lazy to listen to your nagging.”

“…”

Bai Yu bit his back teeth, feeling resentful in his heart.

She had never seen such a difficult person in her two lives!

After a while, Bai Yu lowered her voice and said, “Palace Jade Liquor?”

Qiao Yu looked at her, without revealing any flaws on his face, but his heart was bursting with excitement.

Isn’t this a classic line from a skit that appeared in the 1990s?

Wow, he’s from the future!

No wonder Baiyu acted unexpectedly, now it makes sense.

So…was the other person reincarnated, traveled through a book, or was he just like me, a pure soul traveler?

Before she joined the army, Bai Yu was doing very well in the army and was even able to marry a battalion commander for the second time despite her blemish on her reputation…

She prefers rebirth.

The other party’s turning point should be… the moment when he filed for divorce with Lao Zhou?

Old Zhou also said that when Bai Yu brought back a child for Zhou Jun, she strongly opposed it and took the initiative to file for divorce.

No one has heard of Bai Yu’s personality changing drastically before and after this.

Qiao Yu was like a kitten that had grabbed the other person’s pigtails and smiled triumphantly as if she had stolen something fishy: “What kind of palace wine? My goodness, this is a new era, and we must eliminate all feudal remnants! You were interrogated before for reading foreign books and sending inappropriate articles to newspapers. What, weren’t you interrogated enough?”

She was sure that the other party was here to test her.

Will Qiao Yu expose himself?

Of course not.

Why give your secret to the other party? Do you think she would shed tears when she met her fellow villagers?

Bai Yu felt frightened and immediately wanted to back out: “I, I was thinking too much…”

“Wait.”

Seeing that the other party turned around and was about to run, Qiao Yu stopped him.

Bai Yu didn’t turn around, “Do you have anything else to say?”

Qiao Yu smiled, “Now that you’re here, why don’t you just say a few words and leave? This is just a waste of my time. Leave the few ounces of brown sugar in your arms.”

Although he didn’t need that much, who would complain about having too much stuff?

Bai Yu’s scalp tingled, and she finally turned around, trying to awaken Qiao Yu’s conscience: “Qiao…”

“Please call me Comrade Qiao. But if you insist on making a connection, I don’t mind calling you Sister Bai.”

Bai Yu said expressionlessly: “Comrade Qiao, this is the money I saved from my confinement…”

“I don’t care how you got here, just tell me whether you want to stay or not.”

Bai Yu saw the obvious threat on the other party’s face, as if if she didn’t agree, she would be interrogated by the organization over the “Palace Jade Liquor” in the next second.

Bai Yu: …

She left behind the few ounces of brown sugar and left in a hurry.

Qiao Yu whistled.

You little brat, you dare to fight with her.

Bai Yu returned to the building and heard a child crying and her mother-in-law scolding on the first floor.

It was nothing more than that the Lu family married her to bring back a disaster…

When the sisters-in-law in the corridor saw her, they lowered the volume of their discussion.

It was obvious that she was the subject of their discussion.

Bai Yu walked through the corridor with an expressionless face, returned home, and said: “Mom, if you really want to relax, just let the Red Army bring back meals from the canteen. It’s true that I gave birth to the child, but I’m really not cut out to take care of a child, otherwise I wouldn’t have asked you to join the army. You’d better say less…”

Saying so much can’t change the fact that you cook while taking care of the child.

Mother Lu cursed again: “Oh! I came to join the army just to take care of your children?! I didn’t enjoy the blessings when I was young, and now I have to suffer from you when I’m old?!”

“That’s the grandson of your Lu family.”

“We, we, our Lu family! Listen, listen, is this human language? You married into our Lu family, so you are not the daughter-in-law of the Lu family? I said you are restless! But you were born with a seductive face, and you made my son forget his mother after he got a wife! I won’t live anymore…”

Mother Lu didn’t cry very sadly, but her voice was loud, which attracted the neighbors to look in.

Lu Hongjun had just arrived at the bottom of the building when he heard the voice. He paused slightly and an arm came over his shoulder.

“Red Army, let’s go! Go home!”

He glanced at the man who was speaking, and then glanced at the eyes of the people present –

no matter whether they were men or women, young or old, they all looked at the joke.

His eyes suddenly dropped.

He hurried back home and slammed the door, shutting out the onlookers.

When Mother Lu heard the noise, she knew it was her son who had returned, and she stopped crying. She weighed the child on one arm, brought the food to the table, and began to complain: “Son, you’re finally back. If you hadn’t come back, I would have been exhausted to death by this plague-ridden woman!”

Then, Mother Lu exaggerated the story of what had happened.

Lu Hongjun looked at Bai Yu, “Where’s Hongtang?”

Bai Yu wanted to calm things down, and her voice was not at all rational and strong as when she was alone with her mother-in-law. She deliberately spoke in a coquettish voice: “Hongjun…”

“Where’s Hongtang?! Who did you go to see again!!”

Lu Hongjun didn’t buy her nonsense at all. When he roared, the blue veins on his neck stood out, and Bai Yu was so frightened that her face turned pale.

“Red Army…”

Lu Hongjun also realized that his behavior was irrational. After roaring and venting, he forced himself to calm down, pinched his eyebrows, and asked her in a calm tone: “Bai Yu, do you still want to live?”

“Of course I don’t want to… I really didn’t do anything, believe me, Hong Jun…” Bai Yu was panicked, and her voice was panicked.

But she just didn’t mention the root cause of the problem and just asked Lu Hongjun to believe her.

She has nothing, yet she causes trouble everywhere and causes inconvenience to him. Why should he believe her?

This is pure bullshit.
