“What happened outside?” Ye Ling asked Min Nan after the young female scholars had entered the dormitory building.
“It’s nothing.” Min Nan didn’t take the group of people seriously and didn’t want to explain too much. He added, “Are you hungry now? I noticed there’s a canteen nearby.”
Though it was still early, Ye Ling was indeed a bit hungry, so she nodded.
“Then let’s go to the canteen. My treat, ” Yu Huan immediately suggested.
If Yu Huan hadn’t come to escort Ye Ling today, Min Nan wouldn’t have been able to go to the canteen with her due to the potential gossip. But now that Yu Huan and Wan Xue were there, the four of them going to dinner together wasn’t an issue.
“No, no, no. You guys helped me move my things, so of course, I should treat you. Let’s go,” Ye Ling said with a smile.
The four of them went to the canteen and ordered some dishes. However, the dishes there couldn’t compare to Sun Li and Ye Ling’s cooking. They were simple stir-fries with added salt and chili powder.
However, the meat dish wasn’t very tasty.
In reality, Ye Ling now had a considerable amount of money with her. In the black market, there were dealers who exchanged money for various tickets that could exchange various items. Although she would incur some losses, she could obtain various universally accepted tickets. The tickets Ye Ling currently possessed would enable her to eat and drink without worries for three months.
But to Min Nan and Yu Huan, Ye Ling still seemed as financially challenged as before.
Ye Ling chuckled inwardly. The small world was a closely guarded secret. She couldn’t share it with anyone, so she had to appear as if she was still financially struggling.
After dinner, Min Nan and others got ready to return to Willow Village.
Ye Ling escorted them to the crossroads and watched as they gradually disappeared.
Standing alone beneath a tree, Ye Ling felt a sense of solitude.
From now on, she would be living on her own.
Ye Ling returned to the dormitory building. In the courtyard, she noticed several young female scholars hanging laundry. When they saw her, their expressions changed subtly, and they exchanged glances.
Ye Ling found it a bit odd. Why were they looking at her that way?
However, she didn’t dwell on it and went back to her room, locked the door, and entered the small world. There, she picked up the homemade small hoe to loosen the soil in her herbal field and planted the newly acquired seeds.
Night had fallen. In the dormitory opposite Ye Ling’s room, several young female scholars had already finished their evening routines and were lying on their beds.
Li Han rolled over on her bed and shared some information, “I inquired about her. That woman’s name is Ye Ling. She used to be from the third production brigade. I heard she was raped by some idler in the reed marsh. After that incident, she hid in Willow Village for a while. I don’t know why she’s returned recently and is staying in our dormitory building. ”
Xin Yan was on the lower bunk, silently listening to Li Han’s explanation.
Another roommate couldn’t help but interject, “Is that true? Doesn’t that make her a slut? Doesn’t the man have any reservations about her? I really can’t fathom it.”
Li Han initially hadn’t paid attention to this detail. However, hearing her roommate’s words, she nodded vigorously and responded with annoyance, “What do you know? This means that Ye Ling has some abilities. She’s skilled at seducing men, and in that regard, we can’t compare.”
“Li Han, don’t say that,” Xin Yan said, finding Li Han’s words somewhat overboard.
Li Han snorted. “Did I say something wrong? That man’s demeanor is far from that of an ordinary farmer. He might even be a minor official. Moreover, that man brought Ye Ling here, which means he’s from Willow Village. Ye Ling has only been in Willow Village for a few days, and she’s already made a man fall head over heels for her. It’s already good enough that I didn’t say that she’s a vixen!”
The other two roommates concurred with Li Han’s analysis. One of them added, “And did you notice that Ye Ling is staying in a double room? Not only that, it’s an empty double room. I’ve never heard of her background. Why is she staying in such a nice dormitory? She must have used some means.”
Li Han hadn’t initially noticed this detail, but after her roommate pointed it out, she nodded emphatically and commented angrily, “This kind of person is living so well. We work hard, but we don’t get any benefits. It’s annoying.”
“Yeah, she might have relied on that man’s arrangement to stay in such a nice dormitory,” another roommate said, her tone tinged with jealousy..
