Rebirth 78 was replaced by a husband, the cold educated youth pulled the curtains every day

After hearing what the young man said, Lu Ye couldn't help but sigh.

It’s true that people cannot be judged by their appearance.

This guy is so skinny and small, as if he hasn't grown up yet, but he has a very bright brain.

With just a few clues, he was able to analyze so many things.

Rather smart.

However, Lu Ye knew very well that what he was doing was risky.

He and this thin young man met by chance and didn't even know his name, so how could he possibly take him with him?

He simply said, "You're so self-righteous. Okay, I don't have time to play detective games with you here. You should leave quickly and stop following me."

Seeing Lu Ye was about to leave again.

The young man immediately said, "If you don't take me with you, I will call for help now."

"Hehe..." Lu Ye laughed dryly and was about to leave.

"Someone, come here! Catch the speculators! There are people speculating here!"

Lu Ye had just taken a few steps when the young man really started shouting at the top of his lungs.

Moreover, the shouting was particularly loud, attracting the attention of many passers-by.

Lu Ye hurriedly stopped, put down the bag, turned back, and then covered his mouth with his hand.

"You're such a heartless bastard! I just saved your life twice and bought you some bread, and this is how you repay me! I might as well smother you to death!"

"Woooo..."

Seeing that the young man was about to speak, Lu Ye loosened his grip a little.

"Go ahead and smother me. You saved my life anyway, so I'll just consider it a return to you."

"Hey! Are you trying to play tricks on me?" Lu Ye didn't expect that this kid would be so difficult to deal with.

"Hehe...Brother, I know you won't suffocate me to death."

The young man laughed and said, "Just take me with you. I'll work for you, and you can give me some money, just enough for me to eat and drink. I'm not greedy."

“I have never met a person who is not greedy.”

Lu Ye loosened his hand, but thought to himself, "The skin of this little eggplant is quite tender, like a girl."

"Brother, I beg you, just give me something to eat. If you don't care about me, I will starve to death in three days." The young man continued to beg Lu Ye.

"You have arms and legs, you deserve to starve to death." Lu Ye didn't care.

"Brother, I'm not lying to you. I also want to find a job, but no one wants to hire me. I've spent all the money I have. I've been sleeping under the bridge these days. Otherwise, I wouldn't have fainted from hunger."

"Please be so kind as to take me with you."

Lu Ye thought for a moment.

Then he said, "If you want me to take you with me, that's not impossible, but in our line of work, being clever isn't enough; you also need to be brave."

"I'm very brave, very brave." The young man said hurriedly when he saw that Lu Ye finally relaxed a little.

"It's no use just talking."

"Well, tonight at 12 o'clock, there's an open space behind the Gangzhong crematorium where they burn paper for sacrifices. I'll be waiting for you there. If you dare to come, I'll take you with me."

"What do you think? Do you dare?" Lu Ye looked at the young man provocatively.

"Okay, then it's a deal. We'll meet at 12 o'clock tonight!" The young man gritted his teeth and agreed.

Lu Ye could tell from his expression at the moment that he was afraid.

But this is exactly the effect Lu Ye wants.

At 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, who would go to the crematorium in the dark for no reason?

Especially the open space behind the crematorium, where people burn paper all year round, causing the entire area to be pitch black and emitting a burnt smell.

It's especially creepy at night.

Lu Ye had a wicked smile on his face: "Then it's settled. I have something else to do. You've already wasted a lot of my time. Please don't follow me anymore."

Lu Ye picked up the bag.

This time, the thin young man did not follow him.

It wasn't until Lu Ye had walked quite a distance that the young man shouted, "12 o'clock! We won't leave until we meet again!"

Lu Ye didn't even turn his head, just waved.

He muttered, "Only a madman would go there."

Yes, the courage test condition proposed by Lu Ye was just a lie he made up to get rid of this young man.

He had no intention of going at all.

Now that he had finally gotten rid of the other party, Lu Ye, carrying the bag, quickly disappeared around the corner.

The young man stood there, his eyes fixed on Lu Ye until Lu Ye disappeared into the distance.

"You never even asked me my name."

After a long time, the young man calmed down, turned around and left in the opposite direction.

Lu Ye was carrying the bag and preparing to return to Dongsheng Village. He would pass by a supply and marketing cooperative on the way.

Whether you can buy pork depends entirely on luck.

But I don’t know whether Lu Ye is lucky or Su Mengyao is lucky.

There was still some pork left in this supply and marketing cooperative.

But they are basically all lean meats. Fatty meats like pork belly and fat have already been bought out.

These days, oil and water are scarce, so many people buy the fattiest meat, take it home to fry it, and then eat it slowly.

On the contrary, fewer people buy lean meat.

Lu Ye directly bought two pounds of pork belly and then returned home happily.

At home, Su Mengyao sat on the kang. In front of her was the snowflake cotton cloth that Lu Ye had bought for her. Now she had cut it into pieces the size and shape of children's urine mustard seeds.

Su Mengyao placed the cotton she had prepared in the middle of the cotton cloth, then folded the cotton cloth in half and covered it on the cotton, making it into long strips half a palm wide.

Then he quietly put it away and kept it for future use.

When Lu Ye came back, he found that the gate that he had kicked in had now been repaired.

Lu Ye pushed open the door of the side room.

In one hand he held pork belly tied with a straw rope, and on the other shoulder he carried a silk bag.

When Su Mengyao saw Lu Ye for the first time, she rushed over and took the pork belly from Lu Ye's hand.

He was very surprised and said, "You really bought pork. I thought you were just talking casually."

"I went to four supply and marketing cooperatives before I could buy it."

"If you want to eat, just clean these bottles." Lu Ye said to Su Mengyao after putting down the bag.

"Okay, I'll brush it!"

Since there was meat to eat, Su Mengyao no longer cared whether washing bottles counted as housework, and agreed readily.

Lu Ye rested for a while, then washed his hands and started stewing the meat.

While cooking, Lu Ye secretly thought it was a pity that there were not so many spices at home, otherwise the stewed meat would be more fragrant.

Su Mengyao squatted on the ground, scrubbing the bottles diligently, smelling the aroma of the meat in the pot, and felt full of energy.

sunset.

Night began to fall.

Under the Hunshui River Bridge, a thin figure sat by the fire, hugging his legs to keep warm.

No watch.

There is a street lamp every hundred meters on the street, and all of them are now lit.

At 10 o'clock in the evening, these street lights will be turned off one by one to save electricity.

This thin figure would occasionally check to see if the street lights were still on, and judge the current time based on the time when the street lights went out.
