Chapter 10

Gu Qijiao seemed not to notice the flash of jealousy in Wang Sufen’s eyes, and greeted her familiarly:

“What do you want from me?”

“Can’t I come to see you if I have nothing to do? We have such a good relationship. On your first day of marriage, I must come to see how you are doing!”

As Wang Sufen spoke, she looked around the yard where Gu Qijiao lived, with a hint of contempt in her eyes.

What’s so great about marrying a poor educated youth? He has nothing. Even the house he lives in has to be subsidized by his family.

Although there are always people saying that these educated youth will return to the city in the future, in Wang Sufen’s opinion, that is all hopeless.

In recent years, batches of educated youth have been sent to the countryside, but I have never seen anyone coming back.

Some of the first group of female educated youth still dreamed of returning to the city and were unwilling to start a family in the countryside. They have all become old maids now.

The educated youth are just good at showing off.

They were educated and knowledgeable. In the words of the brigade, the educated youth brought culture to the countryside to spread knowledge and promote agricultural technology.

But the fact is that these educated youth worked in the countryside and earned the same work points as the country men, and they did not live better than the country men.

What’s worse, there are some people who can’t lift anything with their hands or shoulders, and they don’t earn enough to eat a full meal in the countryside.

Speaking of getting married, marrying an educated youth is actually far worse than marrying a local man.

Local men have parents and brothers to help them at home, so it is no problem to at least build a house and buy some new furniture when they get married.

The educated youth were different.

They all left their families and came to the countryside alone.

If a woman marries a male educated youth, she will have no house, no family, no one to take care of her when she gets pregnant, and no one to take care of the child after she gives birth.

For someone like Gu Qijiao, after getting married, her parents gave her a house to live in. There is really no other family like her in the surrounding villages.

But this was not a glorious thing. The villagers laughed at her behind her back, saying that the Gu family was extinct and yet they had an only daughter and were raising her as their own.

Wang Sufen often heard her parents stabbing the old Gu family behind their backs.

Just because of these things, Wang Sufen didn’t envy Gu Qijiao at all for marrying an educated youth.

Speaking of which, Wang Sufen played a role in fueling Gu Qijiao’s marriage to Zheng Yunsheng!

Because it was Wang Sufen who gave Gu Qijiao the idea of ​​climbing onto the bed to force Zheng Yunsheng to submit.

Wang Sufen certainly had no good intentions. She didn’t care whether Gu Qijiao could marry Zheng Yunsheng smoothly.

She just wanted to ruin Gu Qijiao’s reputation.

Before the bed-climbing incident, Gu’s family was the only girl in the village who had attended junior high school, and the door of her home was often visited by nearby matchmakers.

Wang Sufen’s neighbor, Aniu, asked someone to go to the Gu family and propose to Gu Qijiao.

It’s just that the old Gu family only has one daughter, Gu Qijiao, and they are reluctant to marry her off early, so they rejected all those marriage proposals.

Otherwise, Zheng Yunsheng might not have had any chance of success!

A girl who was spoiled by her family, thin, lazy and naughty, and whose family had a bad reputation, yet so many families were vying to marry her.

This made Wang Sufen feel very unbalanced.

What’s the use of having an education? Can an education provide you with a living in the countryside?

Wang Sufen couldn’t stand the way those people in the village treated Gu Qijiao as a treasure.

So after Wang Sufen knew that Gu Qijiao liked Zheng Yunsheng, she soon suggested to Gu Qijiao that she climb into bed with Zheng Yunsheng and force him to marry her.

The purpose is to let everyone in the village see Gu Qijiao’s true shameless face.

Originally, Wang Sufen was afraid that Gu Qijiao would not be able to save face, but she didn’t expect that Gu Qijiao was so stupid and actually did it.

Thinking of this, Wang Sufen felt that Gu Qijiao was even more shameless.

Now, Gu Qijiao’s reputation in Yueya Village has become as bad as the rotten fish and shrimp in a stinky ditch.

However, even though she despised him in her heart, Wang Sufen still tried to please Gu Qijiao on the surface and said a lot of flattering words to her.

After all, Wang Sufen can gain a lot of benefits by being on good terms with Gu Qijiao.

You know, Wang Sufen’s life in the Wang family was not easy. She got up earlier than the chickens and went to bed later than the cats. It was common for her to suffer from cold and hunger.

Gu Qijiao was different. Although she had been helping with housework since she was young, no one forced her to work more or less.

Not to mention food and clothing, the whole family was concerned about Gu Qijiao. Whenever they wanted something delicious or useful, they would ask Gu Qijiao first if she wanted it.

Wang Sufen, who was good friends with Gu Qijiao, gained a lot of benefits from this.

When there is food, Gu Qijiao will bring it to Wang Sufen to eat together. After making a new cotton-padded jacket, Gu Qijiao will give the cotton-padded jacket that she didn’t wear last year to Wang Sufen.

Gu Qijiao really treats Wang Sufen as a friend.

Wang Sufen was reluctant to make an enemy of such a friend who could benefit her. Even though she looked down on him in her heart, she still coaxed Gu Qijiao sweetly as if she had spread honey on her mouth.

In her previous life, Gu Qijiao was indeed fooled around by Wang Sufen.

Unfortunately, she is now reborn as a human being and has long known what kind of person Wang Sufen is.

On the surface, Gu Qijiao was still listening to Wang Sufen with a faint smile, but in reality, all those words went in one ear and out the other, and she didn’t take a single word of them to heart.

After talking with Wang Sufen, Gu Qijiao found out that the reason why Wang Sufen came to her house in broad daylight was because she had her period.

She came to Gu Qijiao to borrow toilet paper.

It’s called borrowing, but in fact it’s just freeloading.

It’s still impossible to pay it back.

During this period, when women had their menstrual period, they used a menstrual belt with a piece of toilet paper in the middle.

Of course, only well-off families can afford toilet paper.

Families with poorer conditions use rags or wood ash instead of toilet paper.

Not many families can afford toilet paper.

Not only was Wang Sufen’s family extremely poor, but they also had a very serious patriarchal mentality. Of course, they were reluctant to give Wang Sufen something as rare as toilet paper.

So in the past, whenever Wang Sufen had her period, she would usually ask Gu Qijiao for some toilet paper.

If you count carefully, in this year, five months, Wang Sufen has asked Gu Qijiao for paper four times.

She came to Gu Qijiao today with the intention of asking for toilet paper.

Under normal circumstances, Wang Sufen doesn’t have the chance to slack off during the day.

She had her period and was in a hurry to go home to change her menstrual belt, so she had the chance to ask the team leader for two hours of leave.

After getting the leave, Wang Sufen did not go back to the Wang family directly, but came to the yard where Gu Qijiao lived after getting married.

“Qi Jiao, can you lend me some paper? My period has come and we have run out of paper at home.”

Wang Sufen had only been chatting with Gu Qijiao for a few words when she came straight to the point and asked her to borrow some paper.

Gu Qijiao wanted to laugh after hearing this.
