Yu Jihui: “A Stinking Old Ninth – A Tale of the Coal Capital” (updated on July 2020)

At this point, Elephant said, “Comrades, you see

what a good woman Great Smoker is! See how much

she loves Soapy! He does not know how to cherish

her and instead wants to abandon her. He is indeed a

love rat!”

I was very angry and was going insane. I threw

the woolen vest on to the ground. I had a lot of words

to say but couldn’t speak out even one of them. I

screamed desperately and went into hysterics.

One day I was playing football with the students

in the sports ground. Great Smoker came around. She

stood outside the ground, watching me for a moment.

Then she said something to one of the students who

ran to me and told me that she wanted to have a talk

with me. The students stopped playing and stared at

me, waiting to see my reaction. I was very angry and

shouted, “I don’t know this woman! Please go on

playing!”
