Chapter 160 Completely Shocked
It can be said that the Lu family shot themselves in the foot with this move, and they were completely hated by the Lu family clan members, and their lives in their own village became even worse.
Yun Qinghuan only cursed after hearing this, "It's what you deserve!"
She still thought that this punishment was too light!
However, although those who bullied Lu Juan were punished, the Lu family could not tolerate Lu Juan anymore, and they thought she was a jinx, and threatened that anyone who could afford a 50-yuan betrothal gift could take Lu Juan home.
Although Lu Juan was a fool, at least she could warm the bed and give birth to a baby, which was enough.
Many of those who were old and had not yet married were somewhat tempted, but why had they not married at such an old age? It was because they were lazy and could not afford so much money at the moment.
Moreover, Lu Juan had a bastard in her belly whose child she did not know, and she could not be beaten away, which could easily lead to death, but they were not stupid and did not want to raise a child for nothing.
Just when everyone was hesitating, someone who surprised everyone stood up and said that he wanted to marry Lu Juan and take good care of her and her baby in the future.
This person turned out to be Bai Aimin, the lame orphan carpenter. He was usually taciturn and no one noticed him. He was almost 30 years old and had not married yet. Unexpectedly, he was willing to marry Lu Juan this time, and he actually gave 50 yuan to the Lu family as a betrothal gift.
Everyone was surprised.
Although Bai Aimin was taciturn and had a weak presence in the village, people who knew him knew that he was kind.
When Yun Qinghuan knew about this, Bai Aimin had already taken Lu Juan back to his home, and she was also very sad when she heard it.
But thinking of the Bai Aimin she saw last time, she was happy for Lu Juan again.
She could feel that Bai Aimin was pure and kind. With him taking care of Lu Juan in the future, Lu Juan's life would never be worse than it is now.
Lu Juan's matter came to an end. Yun Qinghuan wrote another article and planned to go to the town before the wedding to send the article out and thank the editor. If the editor hadn't been so helpful, the influence of Lu Juan's matter might not have fermented so quickly.
Moreover, it was almost time to pay the manuscript fee.
Two days ago, Bai Naihan went to the town again to buy some things needed for the wedding and took back the photos.
The photos were actually very beautiful. This kind of old-fashioned photos have their own filters. The three of them have outstanding looks, so the photos are also very good. Yun Qinghuan took a look and was still very satisfied. Her mother-in-law Liu Yuzhi also praised it.
There was a hint of envy in her eyes.
Seeing her mother-in-law like this, Yun Qinghuan felt sour in her heart, so she told her that during this Chinese New Year, the four of them would go to the town to take another photo. Liu Yuzhi was reluctant at first and refused repeatedly, thinking that it would be a waste of money. It was Yun Qinghuan who insisted and finally agreed with a smile.
Yun Qinghuan saw her like this, and her eyebrows were curved, which made her look particularly beautiful.
She also lived up to the recuperation during this period. Her skin became whiter and tenderer, and some flesh hung on her cheeks, which made her more beautiful. This smile made people unable to look away.
Bai Naihan looked a little dazed, and Liu Yuzhi patted her son, "Come back to your senses, so that people will not be afraid of being laughed at."
She laughed and scolded, but she was happy in her heart that the two young people had a good relationship, which meant that she would be able to hold her grandson again soon.
Bai Naihan came back to her senses, and her expression did not change.
Yun Qinghuan did not notice the strangeness of the man, but thought that her mother-in-law said this as a joke. During this period, her mother-in-law liked to tease the two of them very much.
At first, Yun Qinghuan was a little uncomfortable, but now she is joking around more and can take it easy.
Because Bai Naihan went to the town a few days ago, Yun Qinghuan didn't let anyone accompany her this time, nor did she take An An, but went to the town alone by ox cart.
She thought about promising Qiao Yue to make up for the two of them, so the first thing to do is to prepare a set of cosmetics. Most of the cosmetics in this era are pure natural, without too many chemical ingredients, so the shelf life is much longer than modern cosmetics, and can be used for several years, but the price is not cheap.
Yun Qinghuan plans to buy a set. No woman doesn't love beauty, and she is no exception. Moreover, a set of cosmetics can be used for several years, which is very cost-effective.
It can also be rented, but I don't know how many people have used the rented cosmetics, and Yun Qinghuan is a bit of a germaphobe.
Thinking of this, Yun Qinghuan didn't send a letter first, but went to the department store to buy cosmetics.
I didn't buy much, just lipstick, eyebrow pencil, liquid foundation, a box of loose powder, and a box of eye shadow. There are many colors of eye shadow, some of which can be used as blush and contour highlighter. One box has multiple uses. Yun Qinghuan is very satisfied, but the price is obviously not cheap. Just these things cost more than 40 yuan!
It's really expensive!
Yun Qinghuan's heart ached.
But thinking that with these cosmetics, she can occasionally make herself more beautiful, and her mood is much better.
After buying cosmetics, she didn't stop, but hurried to the post office again.
As soon as she arrived at the post office, the familiar post office staff smiled when she saw her, "Comrade Yun, you came at the right time. The letter sent to you by Guangming Daily arrived two days ago. I was wondering when you would come to pick it up."
Yun Qinghuan smiled at the person and stuffed a few fruit candies into the staff, "I have been busy at home these days and have not been able to take care of it. It just so happens that I have finished this period of time. I really trouble you. Take these candies and give them to your children at home to sweeten their mouths."
The post office staff declined for a while, but finally accepted it with a smile.
Yun Qinghuan sent out the letter and manuscript she had written. This time, she also sent some mountain products she picked from the mountains, such as mushrooms, and told the editor to share them with her comrades. There were not many things, but it was her little thought, just right for them to taste.
Mountain products are nothing in the village. Almost every household will pick some for their own consumption during the slack season, but they are in short supply in the city, and you may not be able to buy them even if you have money.
Yun Qinghuan thanked the editor in the letter and talked about Lu Juan's story. She emphasized that it was because of the help of the editor and comrades that those who bullied Lu Juan were arrested so quickly, and Lu Juan could slowly live a good life.
Of course, Lu Juan here is a pseudonym.
After sending the letter and mailing the things, Yun Qinghuan left the post office and went to an empty alley. Then she took out the letter sent by the newspaper and magazine to read it.
Just now, when she was holding the envelope in the post office, she felt a thick stack of envelopes. Her heart skipped a beat, guessing how much money there was this time.
She just suppressed her excitement and didn't open it until now.
She looked at the thick stack of big unity notes, her hands were shaking with excitement, and she counted them quickly. After counting them for the first time, she was a little dazed. Then she counted them again in disbelief, and there were actually 600 yuan!
Yun Qinghuan was completely stunned at this moment.
