Lu Yao's legs went weak, and he almost sat down on the ground.
He covered Zuo Xiaoying's mouth with his hand and pushed her into the house, only letting go when she was pushed to the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed).
"Keep your voice down!"
Lu Yao lowered his voice, his eyes wide open:
How did you know?
Zuo Xiaoying was so overwhelmed by his touch that she couldn't breathe, her face flushed red. She pried his hands away before saying:
"Last night I heard Jing Youxiang and Yuan Shumei talking outside by the wall. I heard everything they said."
Lu Yao's head buzzed.
Zuo Xiaoying counted on her fingers:
"Sister Yuejuan is your woman, Jing Youxiang is your woman, and Yuan Shumei is also your woman. I know all of this."
Lu Yao stared at her, speechless for a long time.
Zuo Xiaoying raised her head again, her eyes sparkling:
"Brother Wa, I'm no worse than them. I've known you the longest, and I have everything they have... Anyway, I'm a woman too. Why don't you want me?"
Lu Yao took a deep breath and stared at Zuo Xiaoying: "Xiaoying, you're still young, you don't understand these things."
"I understand!" Zuo Xiaoying exclaimed anxiously, "Sister Yuejuan taught me everything. She said that if a couple sleeps in the same bed, the man should... (500 words omitted here), and then they can have a baby. I understand everything!"
Lu Yao almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
How could this girl know so much detail?
Why didn't Sister Yuejuan tell me about it?
As Zuo Xiaoying spoke, she began to unbutton her cotton-padded jacket:
"I'm not afraid of pain, please take me. I'm fine with being fifth in line."
Lu Yao was getting anxious; this girl was treating this like a game.
He acts as if he's wronged by not including her in his activities, which shows his immaturity.
Quickly hold her hand down:
"No, no, no! Listen to me..."
Before he could finish speaking, someone suddenly knocked on the window.
"Knock knock knock".
Lu Yao and Zuo Xiaoying both froze.
"Lu Yao, are you asleep?"
A low voice sounded.
It was Jing Youxiang's voice.
Lu Yao felt a chill run down his spine. He glanced at Zuo Xiaoying, then at the window, and lowered his voice:
"Quick, hide!"
Zuo Xiaoying pouted, "I'm not hiding, it'll be good for her to know..."
Lu Yao covered her mouth, looked down, opened the lower cabinet door of the large cabinet on the floor, and stuffed Zuo Xiaoying inside.
The cabinets were all empty, waiting to hold Ding Mei's dowry.
Zuo Xiaoying struggled twice but couldn't break free. Lu Yao pushed her inside and closed the cabinet door.
"Don't make a sound! Or I'll never speak to you again!"
Lu Yao said something to the cabinet door, then ran to open it.
Jing Youxiang, wearing a cotton-padded coat and a scarf, stood at the door with her face red from the cold.
Seeing Lu Yao shirtless, she paused for a moment, then pushed the door open and came in.
"Why did it take you so long to open the door?"
Lu Yao rubbed his arms:
"I was asleep, I didn't hear you. Why are you here at this hour?"
Jing Youxiang entered the room, looked down, and then glanced at the kang (a heated brick bed). The quilt on the kang was uncovered, and the pillow was askew.
"You sleep alone?"
"Oh, if not one person, then how many people could there be?"
Lu Yao put on his cotton-padded coat:
"What are you doing here in the middle of the night?"
Jing Youxiang looked at him, her eyes a little red:
"Lu Yao, you're getting married tomorrow. I didn't want to bother you, but... I want to ask you a few questions."
Lu Yao felt uncertain, but forced himself to remain calm:
"What do you want to ask?"
Jing Youxiang lowered her head, her fingers twisting the tassels of her scarf:
"What do you take me for?"
"elder sister."
"Nonsense, who's your sister?"
Lu Yao laughed awkwardly, "Then you can be my sister, okay? You're my good sister!"
"So... how many good sisters do you have?"
Lu Yao remained silent.
I kind of regret bringing all these girls into my life.
I thought I could control it, but now it seems like it's getting out of control.
Jing Youxiang raised her head, tears welling up in her eyes:
"I've already told Shumei. We're both your people, we don't blame you, and we don't blame each other. But we just want to know, is there anyone else?"
Lu Yao opened his mouth, but no words came out.
Jing Youxiang looked at him, then suddenly took a step forward and hugged his arm:
"Lu Yao, I'm not making a scene, I just want to know. Tell me, I can handle it."
There was a sudden sound from inside the cabinet.
Jing Youxiang was taken aback: "What was that sound?"
Lu Yao quickly said, "Rats! There's been a rat infestation these past few days."
Jing Youxiang glanced at the cabinet, then turned back and stared at Lu Yao:
"You haven't answered me yet."
As Lu Yao was pondering how to weave the message, another knocking sound came from outside the window.
"Knock knock knock".
Jing Youxiang was startled, let go of her hand, and looked out the window.
"Lu Yao, it's me. Open the door."
Yuan Shumei's voice.
Lu Yao's head was buzzing.
He glanced at Jing Youxiang, then at the window, and lowered his voice:
"Quick, hide!"
Jing Youxiang became anxious and whispered:
"I won't dodge! Why should I dodge?"
Lu Yao didn't bother to explain. He picked her up, opened the top cabinet door of the large cabinet on the floor, and stuffed her inside.
Jing Youxiang is not very tall; she can fit just inside when she curls up her legs.
"Don't make a sound! Absolutely don't make a sound!"
Lu Yao closed the cabinet and ran to open the door.
Yuan Shumei stood at the door, wearing a cotton-padded jacket and a scarf, dressed almost exactly like Jing Youxiang.
In this era, clothing is monotonous, and it's common to see people wearing the same clothes.
She saw Lu Yao and smiled:
"Not asleep yet?"
They ignored me all day, and now that it's late at night and all is quiet, could they be here to beg for attention again?
There are two listeners in the room and I don't know how to handle it!
Lu Yao feigned composure and stepped aside at the doorway:
"No, come in."
Yuan Shumei entered the room and sat down on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed).
She looked into the room, then at Lu Yao:
"one person?"
"Ah, I'm getting married tomorrow, I should go to bed early."
"Lu Yao, I think I should tell you that I've already told Youxiang about us."
Lu Yao hummed in agreement.
Yuan Shumei raised her head and looked at him:
"We don't blame you, really. We just hope we can still be friends, like before. Even after you get married, we'll still go about our lives as usual."
Lu Yao nodded without saying anything.
Yuan Shumei stood up, walked up to him, looked at him, and suddenly smiled:
"I just wanted to come see you and talk to you. Tomorrow you'll be someone else's husband."
As she spoke, she reached out and touched Lu Yao's face. Lu Yao did not flinch.
Yuan Shumei leaned forward, resting her head on his chest, and whispered:
"Lu Yao, let me hug you one more time."
Lu Yao hesitated for a moment, then reached out and hugged her.
A soft rustling sound came from inside the cabinet, as if someone couldn't resist moving.
Yuan Shumei was taken aback and looked up:
What was that sound?
Lu Yao quickly said, "Rats. There's been a rat infestation these past few days."
Yuan Shumei glanced at the cabinet, then at Lu Yao, and suddenly smiled:
"Lu Yao, you're not hiding someone in your closet, are you?"
Lu Yao's face turned pale:
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Yuan Shumei smiled and didn't ask any more questions.
She tiptoed and kissed Lu Yao on the cheek, then let go and walked towards the door.
"I'm leaving. Go to sleep early."
Lu Yao escorted her to the door.
Yuan Shumei opened the door, and a gust of cold wind rushed in.
Lu Yao then remembered:
"You all jumped over the wall to get in, huh?"
"Yeah, the wall isn't very high... Wait, who are you?"
Lu Yao was so nervous because of the girls.
He quickly laughed and said, "No, I meant that when Gou Shengzi and the others came during the day, they also didn't use the main gate."
Yuan Shumei laughed and said, "You should raise the wall after you get married, otherwise everyone will jump over it, which will ruin your good time with Ding Mei, and scare you so much you won't be able to stay still!"
Women with experience speak boldly.
After Yuan Shumei finished speaking, she slapped him, making Lu Yao jump.
Actually, Yuan Shumei came because she wanted to be gentle with Lu Yao one last time.
She felt that from tomorrow onwards, Lu Yao would be Ding Mei's husband, and she needed to control herself and avoid any further entanglements with Lu Yao.
But since she had already come and kissed him, and Lu Yao remained unmoved, she couldn't be too proactive.
They had no choice but to leave disappointed.
Lu Yao escorted her out, but they hadn't even left the courtyard yet.
Someone was knocking on the gate:
"Shumei, you're here too! Tuwazi, open the door, I've come to see you!"
It turned out to be Ding Mei.
With a grin on his face, he was sneaking around, acting furtively.
She was only wearing a big cotton-padded coat, and her headscarf almost covered her entire face, leaving only her eyes showing.
"I'm afraid people will see me and gossip, so I came masked. Quick, let me in too."
A bride who is about to get married would definitely be afraid of being laughed at if she ran away to her husband's house in the middle of the night on her wedding night.
However, Ding Mei couldn't suppress her curiosity and wanted to see what Lu Yao's house was decorated like.
After Ding Dahu and Xie Chunfang fell asleep, she quietly ran away.
