1970s: Hot wife accompanies the army, cold-faced rough man is not easy to tease

Chapter 213: Young and Self-Degrading (asking for monthly tickets~)
Lu Youyou lowered her voice, but she underestimated her popularity in school.

It was no longer news that there was a beauty among the freshmen class. Ten days after the start of school were enough for the news to spread throughout the campus.

Lu Youyou turned a deaf ear to what was happening outside and had no idea how many people in the library were looking at her. She had already attracted a lot of attention when she packed up her things and stood up, and now it was even more so.

Is this someone trying to flirt with me? Who is so brave?
Although it was a female classmate who came out, the guy with glasses who was posing coquettishly not far away was too conspicuous.

However, Lu Youyou's frosty face made many people gasp. Why did she look even better when she said "no strangers allowed"?

The onlookers had time to appreciate the beauty, but the messenger was not so lucky. She couldn't help but shiver as Lu Youyou looked at her expressionlessly.

She held the letter in her hand and couldn't deliver it. Lu Youyou had already turned and left, and she didn't have the courage to chase after her.

After the protagonist left, she became the focus of attention. The pressure was like a mountain pressing down on her. She subconsciously asked for help from the man with glasses, but when she turned around, she could only see the disappearing back of the culprit.

As Lu Youyou just walked down the stairs, someone patted her shoulder. When she turned around, she saw Cao Erniu's smiling face.

"Looks like I don't need to carry a letter for our department's 'Great Poet'. You definitely won't accept it, right?"

What the hell is a great poet?

Lu Youyou said helplessly: "Yes, so don't help."

Cao Erniu patted her chest boldly: "You underestimated me, didn't you? I ignored him! I can tell you're the type who hates trouble, so I won't cause any trouble for you!"

Looking at Lu Youyou's face that was as beautiful as flowers, Cao Erniu felt more and more emotional. She could not blame those people for being crazy. Who doesn't like beautiful women? Every time she looked at her, she couldn't bear to take her eyes away!

"There are so many young talents in Huaqing, but isn't there any one you like?" Cao Erniu was a little curious.

"I am married."

Lu Youyou's tone was so calm that Cao Erniu didn't react at first.

Three seconds later—

"What?! Did you say it wrong or did I hear it wrong?!"

Cao Erniu's mouth was big enough to fit a fist, and she stared at her blankly.

"You heard right, I'm married."

Cao Erniu didn't say anything for a long time.

She is two years older than Lu Youyou and has never been on a blind date. In their village, she is a typical unmarried woman who lives off the land. If she were not spoiled by her family, the gossip in the village would drown her.

"Then, then, then...those people..."

Cao Erniu suddenly thought of those playboys, who might damage Lu Youyou's reputation if she wasn't careful.

There was a widow in their village who was forced to death by rumors. Sometimes it is useless to prove one's innocence. Many people only believe what they want to believe.

Lu Youyou smiled and said, "If there's a similar situation again, just tell me that I'm married."

She hadn't meant to hide it, she just hadn't had the chance to tell it.

Cao Erniu nodded blankly and returned to the dormitory, still immersed in this big news.

Seeing that she was absent-minded, Shen Fang asked her what was wrong. Cao Erniu looked at Lu Youyou, hesitating whether to say it.

"I am married."

"what?!"

The four of them spoke in unison, and even the odd-looking Li Lianqiao couldn't help but chime in. Now that the person involved had spoken, Cao Erniu felt relieved: "If someone asks you to deliver a message or something, just don't answer."

This was a nonsensical statement, but everyone understood it immediately. Even if no one asked them to deliver a love letter, there would always be people who asked about it, and there would be more than one or two.

Wang Kaixuan jumped off the bed without even having time to put on his shoes, and hopped to Lu Youyou on one foot.

"Sister Youyou, is this true? Are you really married?"

She knew that Lu Youyou went to the countryside as an educated youth in 76, and it had been less than two years since then. How come she was married?

Not only Wang Kaixuan didn't believe it, no one believed it, including Cao Erniu who was still in a daze.

If I remember correctly, their roommate hasn't had his 20th birthday yet. Doesn't that mean he got married too young, just after turning 18?
Lu Youyou sighed. To be honest, no one would believe her...

"it is true."

Now the number of people who were dumbfounded increased from one to four.

Lu Youyou didn't explain it, this was the fact anyway.

She put the books she brought back on the desk and smiled goodbye to her roommate who was staring blankly and speechless.

"What do you think, is it true?"

"Yeah, who would joke about something like that?"

"Could it be to ward off bad luck in love?"

"You don't have to say you're married when you're unmarried, there's no need!"

However, their doubts were soon dispelled. Lu Youyou received a letter almost every week, which was said to be from her husband.

Lu Youyou didn't expect that Gu Qingye not only called her every week, but also had time to write her a letter.

The capital city and the island are thousands of kilometers apart. Gu Qingye could only hear the distorted voice on the phone and could neither see nor touch it.

He didn't know whether Lu Youyou was doing well or whether she was taking good care of herself. What he was more afraid of was that the distance would make the two of them more and more strangers.

He had no other choice, and he felt that calling was not enough, so he could only choose the dumbest way, which was to write a letter.

I can’t talk about work, so I’ll just write about my daily routine.

What time do I get up every morning? What do I eat for lunch? The vegetables in the yard are still so malnourished. I found her hairpin in the drawer, and there's a small gray feather hidden in the crack of the bedside table...

Lu Youyou always received a thick stack of letters, as if she was still on the island and the people who used to be with her day and night were still by her side.

It was another Friday, and Lu Youyou put the borrowed books back to the dormitory as usual. A very familiar envelope lay quietly on the desk.

Li Lianqiao was the only one in the dormitory. She was leaning on the bed reading a novel. When she saw Lu Youyou take the letter and leave, her sarcastic words turned around in her throat for a few times, but she couldn't help but blurt them out.

"At such a young age, she's fallen into depravity, actually falling for a country bumpkin. Could it be that she couldn't stand the hardship of farming and just married someone casually?"

Li Lianqiao became more and more excited as she spoke. She finally found Lu Youyou's weakness and she would feel uncomfortable if she didn't say a few words to criticize her.

It would have been fine if I didn't know about it before, but Lu Youyou is actually married, and even after getting married she's still so popular. Many people in their English department are also talking about the so-called campus belle, and when they found out they were in the same dormitory they came to ask her about her.

She had already announced the fact that Lu Youyou was married, but no one believed her. No matter if they were in a class or met at school, there were always people who couldn't move their legs when they saw Lu Youyou.

Li Lianqiao was a good student, had a good family background, and was not bad looking. She was outshined by the married women in the same dormitory, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

She had seen the address on the envelope a long time ago, No. XX, XX Road, Dongzhou Island, something she had never heard of. Going to such a place as an educated youth and getting married, what else could she do than marry a peasant?
Li Lianqiao naturally didn't know that the special forces would not write specific addresses when sending letters, and they would all be forwarded to a unified receiving unit, which led to all kinds of misunderstandings.
