Chapter 476 I can only repay you with my body
Yuan Shumei did not go to work.
The injury hasn't fully healed yet.
Her parents went to work, so she stayed home alone.
At this point, Yuan Shumei was a completely different person from the Yuan Shumei of the past.
Before, I only went to work and went home; my commute was almost entirely between these three points.
Visiting someone's house means going to sit with your older sister.
I also have little contact with my colleagues in the factory.
But after returning from the battle at Jiapigou, she experienced a lot and was no longer as innocent as before.
At this moment, I sat on the kang (a heated brick bed) and looked out the window at the courtyard.
My thoughts have drifted back to Jiapigou.
The daily companionship of Xiao Meizi, the bickering between Uncle Da Hu and Aunt Chunfang, and Hu Niu's mischievousness all lingered in her mind.
Of course, the most important one is that brat who makes you both angry and loving. You can't bear to scold him when you're angry, but you love him but can't have him!
I want to meet him every moment.
For no reason at all, Jing Youxiang got jealous and started a fight with him.
At that time, I was very angry and thought that Lu Yao, a mere militiaman, was not good enough for me.
But after getting to know him, he realized that he had no chance with Lu Yao at all.
She got his body, but it was impossible for them to stay together forever.
Moreover, Yuan Shumei still felt a little sorry for Xiao Meizi.
Even if I miss Lu Yao again, I can't do that thing with him anymore.
If Xiao Meizi found out, how would I feel!
Where do you think you'll put your face?!
However, I can't help but miss him; the feeling of being with him is just too unforgettable.
Lu Yao's every move and every expression exudes such coolness!
He pinned Shi Shouyin, who had hit him, beneath him, pointed a gun at him, and forced him to apologize and pay compensation.
He beat the Seven Old Cats, who were robbing people, into submission. That's so manly!
And... he's quite manly in that area too.
Although I didn't really like that taste...
Oh dear, why are you still thinking about these things? It's so embarrassing!
Yuan Shumei sat on the kang (a heated brick bed), her face flushing, then calming down, then feeling a little melancholy.
Suddenly, the door opened and someone entered.
Could it be a hallucination?
Yuan Shumei's eyes widened immediately.
Oh dear, it really is Lu Yao!
She was so frightened that she scrambled off the kang (a heated brick bed).
I didn't even comb my hair today, and I'm still wearing my old sweater and long underwear.
When she was in Jiapigou, she wore a sweater and trousers even when it was hot inside the house, and she wasn't afraid that Lu Yao would see her.
But after only two days apart, I felt I had to present my best self to Lu Yao.
He quickly pulled his cotton-padded coat over his shoulders and looked at himself in the mirror.
At that moment, Lu Yao reached the inner room and knocked on the door:
Is anyone home?
"Wait a moment!"
Yuan Shumei quickly combed her hair and began to braid it.
He only said it when it came to tying the hair tie:
"Come in."
Lu Yao opened the door and came in.
Yuan Shumei feigned surprise: "Oh my, it's you, Lu Yao! I thought it was someone else."
As soon as Lu Yao entered the courtyard, he saw her face through the window. She then hurriedly got out of bed and looked in the mirror, where she also saw her.
He couldn't help but laugh and said, "If it weren't me, who else would I be thinking about? You've been eyeing someone else for the past couple of days?"
"No way, that's nonsense. Sit down."
Yuan Shumei poured him water.
In the dead of winter in Northeast China, offering a glass of boiled water to guests is the bare minimum of courtesy.
Lu Yao held a cup of hot water to warm his hands:
"Shumei, where are your parents?"
"They're all at work, but haven't left yet."
After saying that, Yuan Shumei also sat on the edge of the kang, quite far from Lu Yao, one at the head of the kang and the other at the foot.
Lu Yao laughed and said, "Why are you standing so far away from me? Are you afraid I'll eat you?"
Yuan Shumei smiled, and her face turned red again.
Lu Yao enjoyed seeing young women blush.
This shy, bashful expression is rarely seen on girls over twenty years old in Northeast China nowadays.
Come here, let me hug you.
"I won't let you hug me. Go hug your little Meizi instead!"
Full of jealousy.
Lu Yao couldn't help but smile.
He was just saying it casually.
Lu Yao's philosophy is that flirting with female friends appropriately can not only enhance relationships but also acknowledge their charm.
It would be so impolite to ignore someone's looks and figure!
When will your dad be back?
"It will take at least two hours to get back, and so will it take my mom."
"Oh. When do you start work...?"
Lu Yao started chatting casually.
Yuan Shumei played with her braids, answering Lu Yao absentmindedly.
I was thinking, "What are you doing? I told you I wouldn't let you hug me, and that's it? I'm a girl, I can't always be the one to take the initiative... Why can't you be a little more proactive?"
I already told you my parents wouldn't be back for at least two hours, and you still haven't come...
Oh dear, why am I thinking about this again?
Yuan Shumei was sitting there without moving, and her heart was racing.
My heart rate increased, just like when I did dozens of squats.
When Lu Yao talked about work, she would give casual answers without really thinking, and sometimes her answers were completely irrelevant.
Seeing her absent-minded look, Lu Yao, after all, couldn't read minds and didn't know what she was thinking.
I tentatively asked:
"Shumei, there's something I'd like to ask you..."
"Huh? What's wrong?"
Yuan Shumei's hands were sweating as she braided the hair. She thought to herself, "Here it comes! I knew you men couldn't resist once you got going!"
But I absolutely cannot agree to this.
I swore that I wouldn't keep doing things that would let Xiao Meizi down.
Lu Yao asked, "Could you lend me some money to tide me over?"
"No, that won't do!"
Yuan Shumei blurted out what she had thought of.
Lu Yao felt awkward. What? Can't we talk about money in this kind of relationship?
In the later years, there was a credit crisis among Chinese people, and borrowing money was equivalent to losing face. But in this day and age, it shouldn't be like that, right?
In the 1970s, everyone had a job, and your birthplace was your workplace. You would stay in one place for your entire life, so you had to pay attention to your reputation.
If someone becomes notorious for owing money and not paying it back, it's like a pile of dog excrement being made to stink.
Besides, everyone is facing difficulties at this time, and helping each other out is a common occurrence.
People borrow rice, flour, soy sauce, and vinegar. They all remember to borrow and return.
Yuan Shumei's "No" caught Lu Yao off guard.
Yuan Shumei immediately realized what was going on:
"Oh, what? You mean you need to borrow some money?"
"Hmm, what do you think?"
"I didn't hear you clearly... I thought you wanted... Oh, it's nothing. What do you need the money for? How much?"
Lu Yao couldn't help but laugh at her disheveled appearance.
Shumei used to be a poised and strong girl who wouldn't shed a tear even when her bones were broken. How come she looks like a naive elementary school student now?
"I need to go hunting and get a batch of guns, and I also want to open a distillery. I'm having cash flow problems; I'll need about a thousand yuan. I wanted to talk to your dad about it. Do you have any?"
Yuan Shumei thought Lu Yao wanted to spend time with her to smooth things over and have a deep and simple chat.
It turns out it was about borrowing money.
With such a serious matter at hand, Yuan Shumei couldn't think of anything else.
Adjust your emotions:
"A thousand yuan, that's a lot... I don't even know if my family has that much. I've saved over three hundred in the two years I've been working. Oh right, didn't Shi Shouyin throw me five hundred yuan the other day? I have that too."
As she spoke, Yuan Shumei went to rummage through her closet.
Take a bag out of there.
Eight hundred yuan is quite a thick stack of money.
They took them out and piled them up in front of Lu Yao.
Lu Yao was a little touched.
The young lady lent me all her money; that shows how much trust she has in me.
However, we are still short two hundred.
Yuan Shumei told Lu Yao to put the money away:
"Take this first, and when my dad comes back later, just tell him you borrowed two hundred."
Lu Yao gratefully took Yuan Shumei's hand:
"Shumei, thank you for your trust. I will repay you handsomely once I've made my fortune. But right now, I have nothing to repay you with but my body..."
