I became beautiful by eating melons

Ye Rou sprained her ankle and had to lie on the kang for half a month.

Zhao Xiulan and Zhang Lan ridiculed her openly and secretly, but they still hoped that she would get married and earn dowry, so as not to let her starve to death.

Gave her some food as alms.

Ye Wen hummed a song as she walked into the house, picked out a pink coat to put on, and combed her hair prettily in front of the mirror.

The lively sounds of gongs and suona outside came into the house.

Ye Rou sat up and asked, "Who's having a wedding?"

Ye Wen was in a good mood and replied in a good temper: "Wang Hongjun is getting a bride."

Ye Rou widened her eyes.

She knew what day it was today, the day Jiang Xing broke into the bride's room!

Ye Wen applied ointment, combed her hair shiny, and left the house.

"Grandma, I'm fine, let's go."

Zhao Xiulan, Zhang Lan and Ye Wen went out.

"Wait a minute." Ye Rou came out of the house, leaning on a stick. "I want to go too."

Zhao Xiulan glanced at her, thought about the gift money, and thought that it would be a good thing for their family to have one more person to eat, so she took Ye Rou with her.

Ye Wen rolled his eyes at Ye Rou and said, "Even if your legs are lame, it won't stop you from joining in the fun."

"You're the only one who has a big mouth." Ye Rou pushed her away and followed Zhao Xiulan.

Ye Wen was so angry that he jumped up and down, and was about to curse, but Zhang Lan glared back at him.

Zhang Lan looked at Ye Rou's back, a look of deep thought flashing across her eyes.

The person getting married today is Wang Hongjun, marrying a girl named Zhao from the next village. There hasn't been a wedding in the village for a long time, so many people came to take part in the wedding.

Men and women sat separately. Zhao Xiulan went to the table for elders, while Zhang Lan took Ye Rou and Ye Wen.

Ye Rou's face was disfigured and her foot was sprained. She had not been seen in the village for half a month.

When they saw her, everyone in the village looked at her curiously.

"Xiaorou, what are you wearing on your face?"

Ye Rou touched the mask and explained, "I sewed the mask myself."

"Oh, you have such a deft hand."

"Thank you, aunt."

A group of aunts at the table looked at Ye Rou. Seeing that she was wearing a mask, they were curious about how her face looked like.

Ye Rou was well prepared. She took off her mask and revealed a thick layer of green ointment on her face, which scared everyone at the table.

Her bangs were so thick and long that they covered her eyes, and she had green ointment on her face, making her look particularly ugly.

Ye Rou smiled and explained, "The medicine that Doctor Liu prescribed told me to apply it every day, and I'll get better faster."

Ye Wen had been looking at this green face for half a month and had gotten used to it.

A group of people were frightened and quickly looked away.

An aunt looked towards the door and said with disgust: "Zhao Wan is here."

Ye Rou looked back and saw Zhao Wan, who was pretty and bookish half a month ago, now wearing bright makeup, with long straight black hair curled into curls, and wearing a calf-length skirt. She attracted everyone's attention as soon as she appeared.

"I haven't seen her for a few days."

"The Jiang family broke off the engagement with their family, and she was sent away by the Zhao family to hide from the limelight."

"Why is she dressed like this?"

"She stayed at Zhao Hong's house in town for half a month, and came back dressed like this."

The more these aunts spoke, the more unpleasant it became. In this closed little village, a woman who dresses up beautifully means she is restless.

Ye Wen followed suit and looked at Zhao Wan with jealousy.

Ye Rou sat quietly.

No one spoke until the food was served.

One fish dish is a meat dish, the rest are vegetarian dishes.

When a fish dish was served, more than a dozen pairs of chopsticks reached in at the same time, and the fish meat was picked up in the blink of an eye.

Ye Rou did not rush to grab the food. She was thinking about what was going to happen tonight and had no appetite.

A tractor with a wedding character on it rumbled into the village and stopped outside the Wang family's house.

Wang Hongjun's cheeks were flushed. He walked to the side of the car and stretched out his hand to help the bride down. The two stood together, one tall and the other petite and delicate, they were a perfect match.

Mrs. Wang couldn't stop smiling. She was very satisfied with her daughter-in-law.

Ye Rou saw the bride, with some makeup on her fair and tender face, she was indeed very beautiful.

She looked around and saw Jiang Xing as expected. He was hiding in the crowd and staring at the bride with lustful eyes.

Village chief Jiang presided over the wedding ceremony. The newlyweds smiled particularly shyly, and the whole village made fun of them. The bride was sent to the bridal chamber.

Ye Rou followed all the way and finally understood why the groom's family in the book did not notice Jiang Xing's beastly behavior.

The Wang family’s house has a long cylindrical structure.

As soon as you enter the door, you will see the wedding banquet. Further inside is the main hall. Through the main hall are two large vegetable plots, and then the new house.

The bride screamed for help in her bridal chamber, but her voice was drowned out by the lively wedding banquet, so no one came to rescue her.

Ye Rou didn't dare to imagine how desperate she must have been at that time.

"The newlyweds drink the wedding wine!"

The others started to make a noise, and Ye Rou looked around the room. There was a window facing the big kang, which was wide open for ventilation.

She went over to close the window, put the bolt in, and locked the window from the inside.

Even after locking the windows, Ye Rou still felt uneasy.

When everyone returned to the wedding banquet, she followed them for a while, used the excuse of going to the bathroom to get rid of Ye Wen, and returned to the bridal chamber.

The door opened with just a slight push. The bride looked up in surprise and saw Ye Rou. "What's wrong?"

Ye Rou said shyly, "My grandma asked me to share in her good fortune."

The two villages were not far from each other. Zhao Cui had heard about the Ye family and knew that Ye Rou's marriage was not going well, so she did not refuse. Seeing that Ye Rou had some inconvenience in her legs, she even moved a small chair for her.

Ye Rou sat down shamelessly, holding tightly in her hand the wooden stick she had found to serve as a walking stick. She stared at the door, her face tense under the mask.

Ye Rou's butt seemed to be attached to the stool, and she didn't move even after the red candle was half burned out.

Zhao Cui didn't want to chase her away and hoped that Wang Hongjun would come back soon.

At this moment the door was suddenly pushed.

Zhao Cui said happily: "The Red Army is back."

Ye Rou hid behind the door.

She opened the door and Jiang Xing was standing outside, looking at her with lustful eyes.

"You've gone the wrong way." Zhao Cui felt a little uneasy being looked at, and was about to close the door after she said that.

Jiang Xing drank some wine and felt a burning sensation in his lower abdomen. Urged by this burning sensation, he thought of the bride's fair and tender face. He sneaked out on the pretext of going to the toilet and went straight to the bridal chamber. The backyard was quiet, with only light coming from the bridal chamber.

"Beauty, I'm coming to spend the wedding night with you."

Jiang Xing suddenly rushed into the house, pounced on the bride with a grin, wanting to get a good kiss on her.

Zhao Cui screamed in horror.

Ye Rou raised the wooden stick and hit Jiang Xing hard on the back of his head.

Jiang Xing was hit hard on the back of his head, his vision went dark and he fell to the ground.

Zhao Cui collapsed to the ground with limp legs, and breathed a sigh of relief as if she had survived a disaster.

She asked in a trembling voice, "What now?"

Ye Rou breathed a sigh of relief, her hands were wet with sweat: "Don't be afraid, go to the front yard to find someone, I'll stay here to guard him."

Zhao Cui was at a loss and ran out of the house in panic.

The bright red skirt looks like a candle burning in the dark night.

Seeing Zhao Cui running to the front yard, Mrs. Wang grabbed her and asked, "Why did you run out?"

Zhao Cui's face turned pale as she whispered something in her mother-in-law's ear.

Mrs. Wang's face suddenly darkened and she patted Zhao Cui's hand, "Wait here."

She went to the wedding banquet and called out the old man who was drunk, and also called over her second son Wang Aidang who was there to block his brother's drinking.

"Someone broke into the new house."

Old Man Wang and Wang Aidang's faces immediately darkened, and the three of them protected Zhao Cui and went to the backyard in a threatening manner.

Ye Rou breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the three of them. Wang Po, who was walking in front, had short hair. She was not as harsh and shrewd as Zhao Xiulan, but had sharp eyes and was a person with her own ideas.

Mrs. Wang grabbed the man's hair and pulled him up. When she saw it was Jiang Xing, she slapped him hard.

Old Man Wang stopped Mrs. Wang with a sullen face. He had plenty of ways to deal with this kind of gangster. "Aidang, come with me."

Wang Aidang rolled up his sleeves and dragged Jiang Xing out with his father.

Zhao Cui pulled Ye Rou and said, "If it weren't for Ye Rou, I..."

Her voice was choked with sobs and she couldn't continue.

Mrs. Wang held Ye Rou's hand and said, "Thank you, Miss Ye. Without you, our family would be finished."

Zhao Cui hugged her arms in fear.

The bride was fine, so Ye Rou returned to the front yard.

Seeing Ye Rou coming back, Ye Wen looked at her with disdain, "You've been in the toilet for so long, someone who didn't know would think you fell into the pit."

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Wang Aidang running out and yelling, "Someone fell into the pit!"
