Chapter 157: Chapter 157: Wonderful and Continuous Drama (Monthly Ticket + More)

Ignoring Uncle Er’s deliberate provocations, Yu Jingting went past the crowd, locking his gaze onto Suizi in the first row outside the courtyard.

Suizi and her mom, Wang Cuihua, sat together in the front row with small stools they had brought from home, waiting quietly for it to begin.

Based on her posture alone, Suizi undoubtedly stood out amongst the group of wives and daughters.

Her sitting posture was so elegant and graceful that it made people turn heads.

Who could imagine that this seemingly cultured maiden was so vicious behind the scenes!

Thinking about the bitten nose, Yu Jingting felt a surge of anger.

He merely teased her a little and gave her a nickname, but she bit so hard.

Even after several days, there were still marks.

Having noticed Yu Jingting’s angry glance, Suizi quickly lowered her head and placed her chubby hand on Wang Cuihua’s padded jacket.

"Mom, I’m scared..."

"Don’t be. Your brother Tiegen is always lucky with exploding toilets."

Wang Cuihua thought Suizi was worried about the upcoming life-or-death lottery.

In reality, Suizi wasn’t worried at all. In her opinion, it was a sure thing for Yu Jingting to draw first-class land. After all, they had discussed it, right?

She was just worried that the petty man would bite her again at night.

She bit his face once, and he bit her all over her body. There was no good spot left on her, ouch.

Uncle Er, full of resentment, carried a self-satisfied air.

In his eyes, holding Yu Jingting’s high-interest IOU in his hand, and about to obtain first-class land, he was reaching the pinnacle of life. This was indeed something worth flaunting.

Yu Jingting, who was busy flirting with Suizi, did not have time to deal with this man.

To Uncle Er, this meant that Yu Jingting was scared of him, after all, he held the IOU that Yu Jingting had personally written.

"Tiegen, after the land distribution, come to my house to chop firewood. And your Aunt runs a Tofu Shop. The donkey has been sick for days, nobody to grind the soybeans, please go help. And..."

Uncle Er, considering himself Yu Jingting’s "creditor," kept making demands.

It was as if he was treating Yu Jingting like a beast of burden.

You have to feed livestock for them to work.

But for "debtors" like Yu Jingting, you give nothing.

"Your Aunt has been wanting to eat game for a while now. After you finish your chores at your brother’s place, go hunting for us, for hares or wild chickens or whatever. Oh, and your Aunt said she’ll be going home with your wife later."

The elder sitting next to Uncle Er spoke up as well.

Yu Jingting reluctantly averted his gaze from his captivating Goblin and glanced at his Aunt standing behind Suizi.

Aunt was holding an empty sack. Empty.

Going to his house, with an empty sack, she was ready to take anything she saw.

The two Uncles thought Yu Jingting was silent because he was unhappy.

The two brothers shared a look, then Uncle Er began:

"Young man, you can’t act like this. You have to know when to yield. Right now, you need our help..."

After saying this, he moved closer to Yu Jingting’s ear, lowered his voice and threatened:

"Remember, you haven’t bought the cow yet. The IOU is still in our pocket."

The two brothers of the Yu Family believed that they were now Yu Jingting’s major creditors and, needless to say, felt they had the right to do whatever they wanted!

Uncle Er thought he had gotten a hold on the wild horse Tiegen of the Yu Family. His look at Yu Jingting was full of pride.

Yu Jingting met his gaze slowly. In his unruly gaze as dark as the ink, there was no fear or flattery that Uncle Er had hoped for. He just pinched his nose, took a step back, and with an expression of disgust said:

"How many days has it been since you brushed your teeth? Hey, can anyone swap seats with me? My uncle’s breath stinks like a sewer!"

Uncle Er blushed enormously. Chen Kaide, sitting in the row behind him, finally found an opportunity to say something.

"Haha, people of the Yu Family are just like this. Shameless!"

Yu Jingting turned around, and Chen Kaide immediately lowered his head, not daring to meet his gaze.

Yu Jingting reached out and, with slow-motion speed, gradually pulled Chen Kaide’s stool from under him.

Chen Kaide, still looking down and silently telling himself "he can’t see me", was caught off guard and fell heavily onto the ground.

"Ah! Why did you fall like that, uncle? Aren’t you afraid of being laughed at?" Yu Jingting sarcastically offered his insincere concern.

"Hahaha." Suizi laughed out loud.

"You took my stool!" Chen Kaide was infuriated. Yu Tiegen acted at such a slow speed, was he afraid that people wouldn’t see clearly?

This was utterly humiliating!

"Who saw it? Did you see it, or did you?" Yu Jingting pointed randomly.

The villagers he pointed at looked to the sky or the ground.

No one dared to offend a local bully, unless, of course, they didn’t want their windows anymore.

Chen Kaide picked up his little stool, grumbling in his heart, and silently headed for the back row.

"Kaide, are you scared of your son-in-law? Why are you hiding so far away?" Someone teased.

"I don’t want his bad luck to rub off on me!" Chen Kaide’s words were full of certainty and pride. Too bad they were only in his heart and no one could hear them.

After all, no one could read minds and see the "backbone" hidden in this old man’s heart.

From Suizi’s perspective, her dad was being a coward, retreating from battle and running away quickly.

Suizi rubbed her hands together, anticipating the upcoming "main event".

The lottery hadn’t even started yet and it was already this intense. Once the actual draw began, it would be a war between dragons and tigers - utterly exciting.

The villagers at the scene, whether the chosen representatives sitting in the courtyard or the onlooking family members outside, each of them prayed inwardly to draw good luck.

They all hoped to draw good land and get something good on this big day.

Except Suizi.

While everyone else was rushing towards good fortune, she was there to enjoy the show.

The biggest regret was that there were no cellphones or cameras in this era.

Otherwise, she could snap a few photos, capturing everyone’s expression. Every single frame would be a great drama.

The two uncles, full of calculations, were in their own palace drama.

Chen Kaide, weak and angry, but unable to voice it, was playing a tear-jerker all by himself.

Her hero, Yu Jingting, filled with righteousness, standing tall and proud. This would definitely be an epic movie!

Noticing Suizi looking at him, Yu Jingting winked at her, bent his finger in a sinister way, indicating that he would show her his magic speed!

Alright, this epic movie might include a part where the lights are out.

The first round of the draw began.

Yu Jingting drew a mediocre tool for the small equipment lottery.

The two aunts behind Wang Cuihua burst into laughter—they laughed so joyfully you’d think their mother-in-law had died.

"Sister Tiegen, didn’t you always brag that your daughter-in-law is a Lucky Star? How come she isn’t helping?"

"It’s not the end yet. The big items and the land haven’t been drawn." Wang Cuihua, seeing her son drawing a useless piece of junk, was a bit anxious, but she couldn’t show it.

Suizi wasn’t worried.

She and Yu Jingting had rehearsed the steps to draw the land. She was confident.

But what Suizi never expected was, this time, Yu Jingting ignored her advice.
