Chapter 82
The Ding family quietly left early in the morning.
At the breakfast table, Zhang Ma kept complaining, “I don’t know how long they’ve been planning this! When I knocked on the door early in the morning, there was no one there, so I can’t see all the things in the house being thrown away!”
The Ding family has lived here for almost 14 or 15 years, and the two couples have rented a house in Zhujialou since they got married, which is not big, with 12 or 13 square feet. At that time, Mrs. Ding just newly married, quite leisure, not only often from the street to buy flowers home decoration, but also love to invite her friends from her student days to the door, she loved to bring former classmates and friends standing in the Zhu family downstairs to show off, Zhang Ma has seen many times before, and now re-raised even more to laugh at her.
“How many years have you pretended to be a city dweller, but when something goes wrong, you still have to hide back in your own soil nest! It’s not something you can put on a pedestal! Bah!” Zhang Ma hated her so much that she had a feeling of being betrayed by the Ding family for no reason.
Zhu Yanshu listened to Zhang Ma cursing all morning without saying anything, and only after breakfast did she pull her into the bedroom to persuade her.
Everyone else had something to do. Yang Yucan has to rush to take her sister to school and pushes Yang Yuyan to go out.
Yang Yuyan hurriedly put her books and notebooks into her bag, and Su Chunjun took her hat and handkerchief for her, and diligently sent her all the way downstairs, watching the sisters get on the yellow bus and leave before she felt relieved.
The street was still busy, as if there was no difference from the past.
Two gendarmes carrying a bucket of paste, holding a stack of leaflets, is along the street to the wall, attracting many people to watch.
Su Chunjun glanced at them, uninterested, and called for a yellow cart to sit on: “Go to the Finance Bureau.”
Upstairs in Zhu’s house, Zhu Yanshu closed the window and sat down to comfort Zhang Ma: “What are you afraid of? No matter how chaotic it is outside, it can’t be chaotic at home. Let them go, it has nothing to do with us.”
Zhang Ma sat on the bed and wiped her tears, her hands shaking.
“Mistress, I’m really scared. Now that the master is gone, Yang Xuhe is also gone, and you’re a woman who goes out every day to play cards with people …… I’m worried when you go out, and I can only let go of my heart when I see that you’re safe and sound at home.” Zhang Ma grabbed Zhu Yanshu’s hand and asked anxiously, “What if someone really bullies you? There isn’t even a man in the house!”
Zhu Yanshu was also considering this.
She was not arrogant. The world is like this, a woman out to do things, even if she is strong, she will be looked down upon and taken advantage of, as if a woman is a plate of cake on the table, a flower in the field, letting people do whatever they want.
The world is really going to be in chaos, and will not give people time to react, she can’t come back to think of a solution when things come to a head, she has to plan ahead.
“I have an idea, let’s discuss it first.” She said.
Zhang Ma immediately came into the spirit, “Mistress, you have an idea?”
Zhu Yanshu first opened the door and went out to take a look, seeing that Su Chunjun and Yang Yuyan’s sisters had both left, before she came back, still shutting the door, sat across from Zhang Ma, and said, “I thought last year that if things went well for Yan Yan and Mr. Su, we would first get them engaged on Yan Yan’s eighteenth birthday this year.”
Upon hearing this, Zhang Ma was first reluctant, “Wouldn’t that be too soon? Yan Yan is still young.”
Zhu Yan Shu shook her head, “I’m afraid it’s too slow. There are two girls in their youthful age at home, I’m afraid that something will happen to both of them, and I can’t sleep every night!”
Nowadays, the world outside is too chaotic, every day there are news of accidents involving female students. In the past, the neighborhood of Zhu Jia Lou was still safe, but now the military police are on the streets every day, and Zhu Yanshu is even more uneasy about the two sisters, Yang Yu Yan and Yang Yu Cicada, when she sees them.
The rumors Zhang Ma heard in the market were even more frightening than those in the newspapers, with many young girls being pulled away from the streets and never recovered.
This kind of thing was even more unacceptable once it was associated with her own family.
Zhang Ma instantly stopped blocking the way and quickly said, ”Then let’s do it. I’ll go and try Mr. Su’s tone, if he’s willing, we’ll do it!”
Zhu Yanshu nodded: “This really depends on you to ask him, if I go and ask, it will make Yan Yan lose face.”
Zhang Ma said, “I’ll go, naturally I should go. If I go and ask, I won’t lose face even if it doesn’t work out.” However, she immediately added, “I don’t think it will be a failure. Mr. Su was smiling involuntarily when he looked at Yan Yan this morning, he’s surely happy about it. Now that Yan Yan has also gone to university, she is also a university student, and with such a fiancée, she is glamorous.”
Zhu Yan Shu sighed: “Yan Yan’s side of the matter must be, I’m worried that big sister face is not good.” Her sister got engaged first, and she is still unsettled.
Zhang Ma said, “Then continue to let her matchmaking?”
Zhu Yanshu shook her head, “I don’t see any good ones right now, so I’m not in a hurry to let her get matched up with a bad one that will ruin her reputation even more. Let’s just say that she wants to help the family, and not consider this for the time being.”
Zhang Ma comforted, “A good meal is not afraid of being late. As I see it, big sister’s luck won’t be bad. Maybe if she lets Yan Yan’s good deeds take her along, she can also meet someone who is good at everything?”
Zhu Yanshu folded her hands, “Then it would truly be blessed by Erlang Zhenjun.”
Zhang Ma hurriedly said, “There is no need to be anxious, ma’am, I will go to Erlang Zhenjun’s temple to ask for an autograph today, and make sure that Erlang Zhenjun will bless our big sister to be happy with everything, and find a good husband.”
The yellow car has arrived at the school, Yang Yucan help Yang Yuyan get off the car, might as well Yang Yuyan pocket a sneeze into her face, sprayed her face with spittle.
Yang Yuyan hurriedly apologized and took a handkerchief to wipe her, “Sister, I’m sorry!”
Yang Yucchan glared at her in a bad mood, and was about to wipe her face, when her nose itched, and she sneezed into Yang Yuyan’s face, spraying her right in the face.
Even the driver on the side laughed.
Yang Yuchan also laughed and took a handkerchief to wipe Yang Yuyan’s face.
Yang Yu Yan: “…… Are you getting back at me?”
Yang Yuchan threw the handkerchief back to her, “Then you deserve it.”
Holding her turned to go to see a boy not far away laughing, her eyes glared, the boy was scared to run away, waiting for the person to run before feeling a little familiar.
Yang Yuyan saw on the side of the originally wanted to greet, see people ran away even if.
Sisters strolling in the deserted campus to the small red building, this road did not meet a few students.
Yang Yucan sent to the door of the small red building in front of the door to let Yang Yuyan go in by herself, this section of the road this period of time are familiar with, she does not have to be sent to the house every time.
“You go in, wait for me to pick you up at noon.” Yang Yucan said.
Yang Yuyan stood and waved her hand, watching the jailer walk away before entering the house.
Shi Wuwei was sweeping the floor, the two met and each laughed. After laughing, Yang Yuyan asked, “Why did you run away? I wanted to say hello to you.”
Shi Wuwei laughed: “How can I not run away? Your sister is glaring at people. You sisters are so interesting.” He had sisters himself, but as far as he could remember, his sisters had never been this relaxed. He wondered how they were doing now, he had been away from home for several years.
Yang Yuyan put her school bag down and sighed, “She’s been too aggressive lately, and she’s been particularly strict in controlling me.”
Yang Yucan was now working with Zhang Ma every day, so naturally, she had been promoted and was able to control Yang Yuyan. In the past, Zhang Ma let her sleep until she woke up naturally, sleep whenever she wanted to at night, and not write her homework whenever she wanted to, but now that she had Yang Yuchan watching over her, she could no longer stay in bed in the morning, sleep on and off, and she even checked her homework! Every day, she was ordered to copy two pages of words, and to practice her bead calculations fifty times.
Yang Yuyan sighed deeply, “It’s too hard for me.”
Shi Wuwei laughed out loud. When the other students heard the laughter, they asked why, and he learned it to them one by one. By the time the acting professor also knew, everyone knew that Yang Yuyan had an ironic sister.
They all praised Yang Yuchan for being responsible!
Yang Yuchan was also considered a somewhat popular figure in the school.
In front of Yang Xuehe this father, after the book club for her reputation, and now there is a “negative heart thin luck” story, she also asked for leave to not come to school, a variety of legends together, many students are full of curiosity about her.
Yang Yuyan originally wanted to defend Yang Yuchan’s name, but Su Chunjun told her not to take the initiative to mention Yang Yuchan’s case, and to wait until she was asked to talk about it, and not to talk about it too much, and only to say a few words each time before she had to stop.
So she kept it bottled up and didn’t mention it.
As a result, none of the students here at Prof. Dai’s place mentioned it either.
Only then did Yang Yuyan realize that the character of all these students was too good. Maybe it was because of Professor Dai’s influence, although they all knew about the stigma attached to Yang Yuchan, and were definitely curious in their hearts, they wouldn’t ask her, and if someone inadvertently brought it up, the others would rush to divert the conversation.
It was as if they were afraid that she would be upset and sad.
This allowed Yang Yuyan’s feelings towards these classmates to rise rapidly in such a short period of time. She wasn’t originally a warm and cheerful personality, and it was usually hard for her to open up with people, but as a result, it was as if it had become a lot easier for her to be here with Prof. Dai.
She was no longer nervous about being surrounded and teased by her classmates like this now.
So someone said, “I observe student Yang’s sister, and it’s not like what they say.”
Professor Dai immediately said, “There are true and false rumors, so don’t listen to all of them. I’m not too familiar with Ms. Da Yang, but I saw with my own eyes that she donated books to the library.”
Those books were now in the library, and with Zhu Yanshu’s efforts, a small name tag was specially nailed to the bookcase to show that they were donated by “enthusiastic alumna Yang Yucan”. There were two hundred books and more than three hundred publications and newspapers, occupying two shelves.
Zhu Yanshu also gave the library some of the letters that Yang Yuchan had used to purchase these books, all of which were replies from the authors and publishers to Yang Yuchan. These materials are also kept by the library and can be borrowed by anyone. If anyone wants to contact the publisher or the author, they can also borrow them for reference.
Now the argument about whether Yang Yuchan was too poor to love the rich didn’t have much soil in the school, after all, the books in the school library were right there, everyone could see them.
And that Qian student was criticized once for his character, it seemed that he took his name by arguing with people from time to time. One of the professors said in class that he was “inviting fame and gain”, and now he has a bad reputation.
The influence of the book club is now somewhat weakened. After Yang Yuchan’s accident, some female members of the club quit. Yang Yuchan was originally the most active of the female members, and most of the other female members gathered around her. Yang Yuchan’s sudden accident also dampened their motivation. While they certainly couldn’t tell who was the good guy and who was the bad guy in the dispute between Yang Yuchan and Ma Tianbao, they all sensed the damage this incident had done to Yang Yuchan.
The sudden disappearance of Yang Yuchan and Ma Tianbao also caused the backbone of the club to be lost too quickly, and there was no timely arrangement for a successor, which turned the book club into a scattered mess now.
However, there are still many students in the school who regarded every session of the book club as their spiritual food, and after losing it, they miss the person who organized the book club even more.
It was Yang Yuchan.
Taking advantage of the perfect atmosphere at this time, someone took the initiative to ask Yang Yuchan: “When will student Da Yang come back?”
Yang Yuyan took the opportunity to confess that her family was full of things, Yang Yucan was the pillar of support, and she had sacrificed her studies for her family.
Then someone laughed and said, “Anyway, your sister is always in charge of you at home, why don’t you persuade her to come back to school, so that no one will be in charge of you?”
This is reasonable.
Yang Yuyan agreed, “I would like to, but it’s not possible.”
Shi Wuwei asked, “Why? Are you worried about Mr. Ma? Don’t worry, no one thinks that way anymore. Ms. Da Yang has always given her all to her classmates and to the book club, everyone can see it for themselves, no one will misunderstand her anymore.”
The others hurriedly said, “Yes yes yes.”
“Right, right, right.”
Yang Yuyan said, “As if by accident,” “Mr. Ma? Is his name Ma Tianbao? No wonder, my mom specially reduced the rent, and they are now living in my house. So he’s a classmate of my sister.”
The crowd heard the gossip and immediately came into the spirit!
Shi Wuwei asked, “Why did he run away to live in your house?”
“I heard that Ma Tianbao is an underling of some rich family?”
“Yes his parents are, he’s not.”
Yang Yuyan, as if hearing it for the first time, also got stuck in the gossip pile: “Is that so? I don’t know ah. His mom and dad are sick, my mom even introduced them to a doctor.”
Professor Dai leaned in front of the fireplace, slowly drinking tea and eating buns, looking at Yang Yuyan in the pile of people laughing.
What a little wit.
