Chapter 109

Zhou Yuru didn't expect the two kids to run away as soon as they said they would. They were quite alert, but she wasn't a bad person! Why were they running? She just wanted them to help call out Zhong Lao San. If they didn't want to, then forget it. But did they treat her like a scourge?

Damn it! When I get married, I must give these two ignorant children a good education!

She tiptoed towards the entrance of the Zhong family's house. She could clearly hear voices coming from the yard, so she pricked up her ears to eavesdrop.

When she heard the older child say that she was just kind of pretty, she was so angry that her teeth were itching. She was obviously very pretty, and this idiot really couldn't talk!

As a result, she heard footsteps getting closer and closer. She was startled and quickly turned around and hid behind the tree.

Sure enough, not long after she left, the door of the Zhong family was opened and a woman stuck her head out.

Her heart was beating fast. She was clearly here to tell them about the bad things Zhou Yushou was going to do, so why did she have to hide like a thief?

She calmed herself down and was about to walk out, but the door of the Zhong family had closed again.

Forget it. It seems that Zhong Ruyi is destined to marry Zhou Yushou. Even if I am kind-hearted, I can't save her.

She wasn't too bothered about it. After all, she had been there before. It wasn't that she didn't want to talk about it, she just hadn't encountered it.

Her kindness had run out, and she had to go back, lest she be discovered by Zhou Yushou, and she would be the one to suffer.

Zhong Ruyi was in the room, rummaging through the clothes in the closet, trying to find something she no longer wore to give to her third brother, who would need it tomorrow.

"Found it! This is it!"

She pulled out a light pink long skirt and showed it to her third brother.

As soon as Zhong Laosan saw the pink skirt, he started to feel dizzy. He didn't understand why he agreed to the little sister's request. He even wanted to go back to the day he agreed and beat himself to death!

"Third brother, try it on first. If it doesn't fit, I'll alter it. I'll always be able to make it fit you!"

Zhong Ruyi urged him repeatedly, and even considerately closed the door and went out, saying before leaving, "Third brother, hurry up!"

Zhong Laosan looked at the pink skirt in his hand with a sad face. He turned it over and over but didn't know where to start.

After Zhong Ruyi walked out of the room, she saw her mother standing at the door with a thoughtful look on her face. She walked up to her and asked what was wrong.

Mother Zhong came back to her senses and said, "Ah, Xiaohe and Tiedan were at the door just now saying that they met a girl who was looking for your third brother. I went out to see that she had already left."

"Girl? Are you here to see the third brother?"

Zhong Ruyi was confused. How come her third brother knew other girls besides Zhou Yuru?

Mother Zhong continued, "Xiaohe said she was from Yangliu Village. I guess it might be Zhou Yuru."

"I don't know why you came to see your third brother? Alas!"

Mother Zhong sighed. Her younger son's relationship with Zhou Yuru was ruined by Zhou Yuru's brother before she could really reject it.

Now, there is no way the third brother could marry a girl whose brother has plans for his family.

Thinking of the families who had rejected the third son before, and then thinking of Zhou Yuru now, Zhong's mother felt sorry for her youngest son's bumpy love life.

"What is your third brother doing in your room?"

Zhong Ruyi giggled, "Third brother is trying on clothes!"

Mother Zhong realized that the third child was trying on clothes to wear tomorrow, and she couldn't help laughing.

At this time, Zhong Ruyi's door creaked open.

Zhong Laosan, wearing a pink dress, walked out shyly. His face flushed and he didn't dare to look up at the expressions of his mother and younger sister.

He had just fiddled with it for most of the day before putting on his skirt, and he was sweating all over.

After waiting for a long time without hearing the two people speak, he mustered up the courage to look up, and saw his mother and little sister supporting each other, both laughing so hard that they lost their voices!

He was so angry, "I told you this wouldn't work! But you insisted, little sister!"

It happened that the eldest sister-in-law came back from the back of the house after feeding the chickens. When she saw her brother-in-law dressed like this, she was so stunned that the basin in her hand fell to the ground with a clang.

She stammered, "Uncle, what are you doing? Why are you wearing my sister's clothes?"

Zhong Ruyi burst out laughing. This sentence was very similar to a line in a modern TV series: xx, why are you wearing xx's clothes?

Zhong Laosan's face turned red, and he was so angry that he wanted to go back and change the pink dress.

Zhong Ruyi finally stopped laughing and hurried over to stop him, "No, no, no! Third brother, this looks good on you, but it's a little small. Did you take off your clothes underneath?"

She stretched out her hand and tugged at her armpit. "It would be better if you make it a little bigger. Your cuffs are too small, so you have to wear them as they are."

Zhong Laosan felt awkward and wanted to leave but was stopped by his younger sister. He could only stop and let several people surround and stare at him.

Xiaohe and Tiedan were surprised. Why did the uncle wear the aunt's clothes? Was the uncle going to become the aunt?

Liu Yu Niang was originally making a bellyband for her child in the room. When she heard the noisy laughter outside, she became curious and came out to see what was going on.

But when I came out, I saw my brother-in-law standing in the middle of the yard in a weird outfit. My younger sister and several others were surrounding him, holding rouge boxes in their hands and applying rouge on his face.

When she got closer, she felt that the skirt her brother-in-law was wearing looked very familiar, as if she had seen her younger sister wearing it before.

Zhong Ruyi smiled and waved to her second sister-in-law, "Come here, second sister-in-law, and see if my makeup skills are good or not?"

Zhong Laosan blushed with embarrassment, but when he thought about it, he realized that he was a grown man and it was okay for him to look, and it wasn't like he would lose a piece of meat just by looking.

He suddenly became frank again and looked everyone straight in the eye. Anyway, he had to wear this pink dress and perform with Wang Laizi in front of the beast Zhou Yushou tomorrow, so it didn't matter.

Liu Yu Niang couldn't help laughing when she saw her brother-in-law's pink dress. Her face, which was painted with rouge and powder, turned red and white.

Zhong Ruyi looked around Zhong Laosan and nodded as she looked at him. "Third brother, you can just wear this skirt tomorrow and you don't need to put on powder. Take off the skirt and I'll alter it for you."

Zhong Laosan complained, "Then why are you smearing it all over my face now!"

He reached out and touched it, and his hand was covered with powder. The powder on his face, which was originally applied evenly, was now covered with black and white spots.

Zhong Ruyi smiled and said, "How do you know if it looks good if you don't put it on? If it doesn't look good, then just don't put it on!"

Working in the fields all year round, Zhong Laosan's skin is quite dark. After he puts a face full of powder on it, his white face and dark neck form a sharp contrast.

Mother Zhong wiped away the tears from her eyes and said seriously, "Third brother, you actually look good in your sister's clothes! It's just that you don't usually dress up, so we're not used to it!"

Zhong Laosan took off her skirt in front of everyone, but she was still wearing her own clothes underneath, which made her look very tense.

His armpits and waist were stretched out by him, and the skirt that fit Zhong Ruyi well seemed much shorter on him.

He casually handed the skirt he took off to Zhong's mother, "Mom, this skirt is too tight, can you make it bigger? Otherwise, I won't be able to walk tomorrow!"

Mother Zhong looked at the skirt front and back and found that it had been stretched out in several places and had several big holes.

In the past, she felt it was a bit of a pity. In the past few years when the family had little money, clothes that were too small for her daughter could be left for Cuicui.

But it’s different now. Their two daughters, Ruyi and Cuicui, have to make two new sets of clothes every year. They no longer have to save on one set of clothes.

This dress is torn, so let it be. We can just buy new ones. The Chinese New Year is almost here, so it’s time to buy new clothes for the two girls at home!

She took the skirt and went to find needle and thread, and asked Zhong Laosan to wait by the side. She had to measure the size of the skirt on his body to know how big it should be.

Finally it was altered, and Zhong's mother asked him to try it on and see for himself. It turned out that the top was the right size, but this was when Zhong Laosan was still wearing his own clothes underneath.

If I don't wear my own clothes underneath, it might be a bit big.

Mother Zhong used the leftover fabric from previous clothes making to patch up the armpits and waistlines. The fabrics used were of similar colors, so it didn't look too out of place.

Mr. Zhong and his elder brother, Mr. Zhong, just came back and they didn’t notice their youngest son (younger brother) wearing a mini pink skirt.

Just looking at him now wearing a well-fitting pink dress, they were speechless.
