I am chasing a rough man in the 80s
Chapter 30: Raising with Excrement and Urine

Chapter 30: Chapter 30: Raising with Excrement and Urine

"It’s really embarrassing to take something in return for a favour we promised to do for free." Wang Cuihua said sincerely to the Zhang Family couple.

If it weren’t for the sight of her clenched fist holding the goose egg with veins popping, Suizi would have almost believed her.

Is my mother-in-law subtly hinting that she’s afraid the egg might be taken back?

Wang Cuihua pointed at the wall and murmured a few more sentences.

The Zhang Family couple nodded continuously.

On seeing this scene, Li Youcai’s heart skipped a beat.

Could Fourth Aunt be instigating the Zhang Family to harm him?

Suizi noticed Li Youcai’s guilty expression and allowed a smirk to cross her face.

My mother-in-law was simply asking the Zhang Family how much money they spent on building the wall, but I’m guessing Li Youcai must have a different idea about it.

He always feels guilty because of his previous wrongdoings.

When no one was paying attention, Suizi lowered her voice and exchanged a few words with the man of the Zhang Family.

"Are you serious?" The man of the Zhang Family appeared surprised.

Suizi made a hushing gesture and lowered her voice even further:

"My mother-in-law wasn’t direct enough to tell you. We all are villagers. It’s difficult to take sides, so she asked me to pass you a message: Keep an eye on your home’s wall tonight, don’t let any mischief happen."

When Li Youcai entered the house, his paralyzed father was grumbling resentfully.

"Look at the air the Zhang Family is putting on! All because I relieved myself by their wall a couple of times. Was it necessary to have a brick wall built in retaliation? I bet they just want to disrupt our Feng Shui by poking a wall at us and flaunt their wealth."

Li’s father had been a softy all his life, but his heart, always envious of others yet devoid of its own joy, was exceedingly hardened.

Li Youcai, after flirting with Zhang Family’s young wife and being caught by her husband, who consequently spat into Li’s yard, did not have the guts to confront him. He resorted instead to secretly urinating at the base of their wall in the dead of night.

Zhang Family eventually built a brick wall, out of sight and hence, out of mind. Finding it embarrassing, they claimed their fence had fallen down.

After hearing his father talking about disrupting Feng Shui, Li Youcai recalled the sight of Wang Cuihua whispering something to the Zhangs and grew more convinced that there must be something hidden within the wall.

The villagers had always been very superstitious.

They would bury a pair of scissors behind someone’s house, stick an octagonal mirror inside a wall, or hang a normal mirror facing their neighbor’s door, all in hopes that their neighbor’s life became worse. These were the means they utilized.

Li Youcai firmly believed in all this.

After Li’s father vented his anger towards Zhang Family for a while, he noticed that his son was as swollen as a pig’s head.

"Big Fortune, what happened to your face?"

"Got beat up by that ruffian from the Yu Family." Li Youcai clenched his teeth in fury.

In his previous life, in order to avenge Suizi, Yu Jingting had skinned his arm just because he had Suizi’s portrait tattooed on it.

Li Youcai would never forget how Yu Jingting coldly chuckled and declared him unworthy while doing so.

He was unworthy of Suizi, but Yu Jingting was?

How could such a narrow-minded and brutal man deserve beautiful Suizi?

"Why did you mess with him? His family has always been tough. Stay away from him." On thinking about Yu Jingting’s rough father, a chill ran down Li’s father’s spine.

When young, Li’s father had tried to flirt with beautiful Wang Cuihua and ended up being tied to a tree and beaten in front of the entire village by Yu Jingting’s father. He had lost all his dignity.

"When the heavens want to destroy someone, it first makes him crazy!" Li Youcai clenched his fists.

As long as Suizi realizes the brutal truth about Yu Tiegen, taking this beating will all be worth it!

"Someday, we too will have a brick wall!" Li’s father looked enviously at the neighbor’s new wall through the window and murmured bitterly.

"Not just a brick wall, but a tile-roofed house, a city building, and even a villa, we will have it all!" Inside, Li Youcai secretly swore.

As long as he could get Suizi, who was so good at making money, would they still worry about not getting rich?

Touching his swollen face which had been beaten by Yu Jingting, Li Youcai sneered.

The more Yu Jingting acted crazy, the more Suizi would fear him. She might even be shivering right now!

As Suizi, Wang Cuihua, and Yu Jingting were walking home, Suizi was covering her mouth.

"If you want to laugh, then laugh. Why are you covering it up?"

"I thought of a koala."

Returning home, Suizi dug out Jiaojiao’s textbook, which had a picture of a koala on it.

The resemblance was uncanny, which left Yu Jingting rather unhappy.

"Is he as cute as a koala?"

"Koalas grow up on feces, truly nurtured with each serving of shit and piss from their mothers."

Yu Jingting found that hilarious.

"That’s quite an accurate depiction, haha."

While Suizi shared in the laughter, she pondered over a question.

Who exactly was spreading negative rumors about Li Youcai?

It certainly wasn’t Yu Jingting.

He’d feel extremely wronged even with the mere thought of being put in a sack, let alone doing something sly like badmouthing someone behind their back. He just couldn’t do it.

Besides her, who else could hold such a grudge against Li Youcai?

"Find out something for me." Suizi murmured into Yu Jingting’s ear, causing him to raise an eyebrow.

"Why do you care? Why do you want to find out who’s badmouthing him?" he mumbles while sipping on his sour fizzy drink.

"Haven’t you heard the old saying? ’The enemy of my enemy is my friend.’ We should at least find out who dislikes him this much, right?"

Yu Jingting showed no interest.

"He can’t keep his pants up. Loses control at the sight of every women. His libido is frighteningly huge. He must have wronged many people by now. No way we could track them all down... Why are you looking at me?!"

What was this girl looking at his belt for?!

"Big libido... huh."

Yu Jingting turned red with embarrassment.

"How can it be the same? What’s wrong with having a big libido for my own wife? It’s legal and certified! What about his?!"

Wang Cuihua walked in, wanting to ask her daughter-in-law what she wanted to eat for dinner. She didn’t catch the rest of the conversation except the phrase "big libido".

"Oh, gosh, it’s doing my head in. How many times have I told you not to get into mischief during the first few months of pregnancy! Are you big? Suizi, you’re sleeping in my room tonight!"

"Pfft!"

"What are you laughing at!" Yu Jingting was choking with frustration. He really should stay away from Li Youcai, it brings him bad luck!

Carrying his unwavering resentment towards Li Youcai, Yu Jingting went to the village entrance, borrowed a cigarette to smoke, while casually inquiring about the gossip his wife was interested in.

Beneath the big tree at the village entrance, Yu Jingting led a group of idle yahoos who populated the area, loitering all day, accounting for eighty percent of the mischievous activities happening in the Wang Family compound, yet surprisingly well-informed.

In the time it took to smoke a cigarette, Yu Jingting managed to get what he wanted to know.

The rumors about Li Youcai weren’t spread by some random villager but Lun Lamei. Coincidentally, one of the lads among this gaggle of yahoos had a close rapport with Lun Lamei and knew all the details.

When he informed Suizi of the news, she was so shocked her jaw dropped.

"Dog eats dog?!"

"Lun Lamei wants to smear his reputation so that other people will be afraid to marry their daughters to him, then she can pick up the leftovers."

"This... sounds oddly familiar?" Suizi recalled.

Wasn’t this the very tactic Li Youcai used against her? Lun Lamei had recycled it without changing a thing.

"Let them bite each other. You just keep your distance and enjoy the show."

Suizi couldn’t help but look forward to it.

Lun Lamei and Li Youcai actually seemed like a good match. If these two could get together, it would be a contribution to society. Two distasteful people getting together would save others from trouble.

The next day, before Suizi could witness the unfolding battle between Lun Lamei and Li Youcai, she got to enjoy another juicy piece of gossip.

"Li Youcai has been bound and taken to the village chief’s house." Wang Cuihua said, holding a large bamboo basket filled with fried sunflower seeds.

With legs crossed, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law sat on the kang bed, munching on the seeds and gossiping, a sight of perfect harmony.
