The cannon fodder female supporting role stirs up trouble in period literature

Chapter 221 Knowing people, knowing faces, but not knowing hearts

Hua Rendong stared at Wu Ying, who looked very imposing, for a while in confusion, then suddenly said, "I only saw that you looked like you were in your forties, and I thought you liked to be called younger like other aunties, so I took the liberty to call you elder sister. It was my fault, auntie, I'm sorry."

Wu Ying's whole body seemed to be torn apart. "What did you call me? Auntie? How do I look like your auntie? No, why do I look like I'm in my forties?"

"Don't you look like him?" Hua Rendong stared at Wu Ying strangely for several times, then pointed at Xia Yu and said, "Look at my uncle, he's over 30 years old this year, and you look more than ten years older than my uncle. It's not wrong to call you aunt, right? Should I call you auntie? Or grandma? You've taken good care of yourself."

This time Wu Ying became even more upset. Even the director of the art troupe politely called her Comrade Wu. Although the girls in the troupe all called her sister, they also politely called her "Sister Wu". It had nothing to do with age and was a respectful title for her status.

Even among a group of young girls, she believed that she was superior to them in both appearance and temperament. Even the leaders who watched her dance always kept their eyes on her, and the young girls who danced with her were just her foils.

Now, being called "big sister" by a girl who is prettier than her, has better temperament than her, and most importantly, younger than her, is not enough to call her "big sister" but "auntie"? She even wants to call her "auntie" or "grandma"?

She couldn't swallow this tone, but when she heard Hua Rendong calling Xia Yu "Uncle", and Xia Yu also acted as if it was nothing special, could he really be in his thirties?

Thinking of this, Wu Ying's anger immediately subsided by half, and she no longer cared about what Hua Rendong said. She just thought that she was jealous of her good temperament and good maintenance.

Smiling, he asked Xia Yu, "Is this comrade's surname Xia? Comrade Xia, are you really over 30 years old? You don't look like it."

Xia Yu glanced at her sideways, and said with a fake smile: "I'm young!"

Just as Wu Ying was secretly delighted by his admission, she heard Xia Yu say, "But you look older than my dad. You must be almost sixty, right?"

The smile on Wu Ying's face froze, "Sixty...sixty? No, I'm not even forty yet."

Xia Yu suddenly realized, "Oh, she's about the same age as my dad's concubine, but you look much older than her. Is it because you don't take care of yourself?"

Wu Ying was confused. Who was this man? How could he openly tell her that her father had a mistress? Wasn't he afraid that his father would be sent to a farm?

No, why didn't she take care of herself? The cosmetics she used were either bought from the Friendship Store or brought back from abroad. Her monthly expenses on cosmetics alone were much higher than other people's wages. Was this man blind?

Although she was still angry, she had to admit that she really didn't dare to provoke this man again. Who knew what he would say in the next second that would make her want to explode on the spot.

Humph, a stinky man who has no sympathy for women, just like his impolite niece!

Wu Ying didn't want to stay in the carriage anymore, so she turned around and walked out. She felt like she would suffocate if she didn't go out to get some fresh air.

At this time, the train had already started. Wu Ying had just got out. The train swayed and she rushed into the arms of a man. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, the man's outstretched hand happened to press on her chest and even pinched it.

Wu Ying was both ashamed and angry. Although she was not an innocent girl, she had always been a person of status and position. When had she ever been taken advantage of like this in public?

Just as she was about to scold the man for being blind, she heard something that made her feel better, "I'm sorry, sister, I didn't wear my eyes when I walked. Did I hurt you, sister?"

Although the man squeezed Wu Ying's hand dishonestly while he was talking, she was not so angry about his words.

Just taking a look at the man's face, he couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. This young man was not only short, but also very ordinary in appearance, which didn't match his sweet mouth at all. It would be great if his mouth could grow on Xia's face.

Cheng Aiguo did not miss the disappointment in Wu Ying's eyes. In his heart, he despised her for being a woman who only cared about appearances, but his face showed concern. "Big sister?"

Wu Ying came to her senses and took a step back. Thinking of his sweet words and the anger she had just received from Xia Yu, she smiled at him and said, "It's okay, it's okay. You can't blame me for everything. I was also wrong in this matter."

After saying that, she gave Cheng Aiguo a sweet smile before passing him. She walked a long way away and looked back at Cheng Aiguo, then turned around shyly and walked away quickly.

I have to say that although Wu Ying doesn't look young, her smile is really alluring. It almost took Cheng Aiguo's soul away. Until she walked away, he was still staring at her back, thinking about the softness in his hands just now, and his mind was distracted for a moment: This woman is so beautiful from behind, I really want to get her to the bed!

Hua Rendong wanted to go to the dining car to get some water. When she came out with the military kettle, she saw Cheng Aiguo staring at Wu Ying's back in a daze. Everyone could see the meaning in his eyes.

He clicked his tongue twice and said nothing. After all, they were all of the same kind and maybe it was a mutual consent.

After Wu Ying's back disappeared, Cheng Aiguo walked into the carriage. When he saw Xia Yu, he was like seeing a relative. "Comrade Xia, how about I move to your carriage? I don't think anyone over there looks like a good person. I don't even dare to talk to anyone."

Xia Yu also saw his interaction with Wu Ying outside. He didn't like this guy in the first place, so he sneered, "I think you are very brave. Weren't you chatting with someone enthusiastically just now?"

Knowing that Xia Yu had seen through his thoughts, Cheng Aiguo said with a wry smile, "It's because that female comrade doesn't look like a bad person. If it were someone else, I wouldn't dare to do that."

Xia Yu smiled but his face was not smiling. Xie Zhan, who was sitting on the upper bunk, poked his head out and said, "Comrade, I don't agree with what you said. As the old saying goes, you can't judge a person by his appearance but not by his heart. You can't judge a person by his good looks. Even a bad person wouldn't have the word 'bad person' written on his forehead, right?"

Cheng Aiguo then noticed that there was another person in the carriage. After introducing himself to Xie Zhan, he retorted, "I think that female comrade has a good temperament and is obviously a person of status. Isn't it inappropriate for you to say that about her?"

Xie Zhan clicked his tongue twice, turned over and lay back down, took out a book from the suitcase and started reading.

Xia Yu heard the sound of flipping through books and asked, "Are there any more? Lend me one too."

Xie Zhan immediately took out a book from the suitcase and handed it to Xia Yu. Xia Yu saw "Unforgettable Battle" on the cover. He had heard of this book. It was recently published, but he had never had time to read it. He happened to be bored on the bus, so he decided to read it to kill time.

So I lay on the lower bunk and read it.
