Chapter 103 Running Away from Home

Feng Chang glared at Feng Xiaojing and said, "It's all your fault. Why did you study so hard? You're a country woman. You only need to know how to farm and give birth to children. Why did you study so much? Isn't it enough for you to graduate from junior high school? I didn't even graduate from junior high school, and I didn't say anything."

Feng Xiaojing was so anxious that her tongue trembled. "Then you should study hard even if you have a child. I'm afraid the teacher will think you are stupid and won't accept you."

"You... you stupid girl, how dare you talk like that? I'm your second brother."

"Who told you to talk about me first?"

"It's all because of reading. I think the more you read, the braver you will be. If you read more, you will be even braver."

He rushed into the house in a hurry. At that time, Feng Xiao was persuading Zhao Hui to let Feng Xiaojing go to school. Seeing that she was wavering, Feng Chang suddenly came.

"Mom, don't let my little sister study anymore. She's been studying so much that she's become an asshole, and she even dares to talk back to me. I think we should marry her off as soon as possible."

"What are you talking about? Second brother, get out of here."

"Brother, how do you answer? Aren't you waiting for money to marry a wife? She won't marry. Not only does she not marry, but she also needs to study. Studying costs money. Where do you get the money to marry a wife? If you don't marry a wife, you will be a bachelor forever."

"It doesn't matter if we marry Xiaojing off now. Besides, our village will get more land in the new year. Mom, if we marry Xiaojing off now, our family will be one less person and one less piece of land. We have to wait 30 years for the next change. The second son doesn't know how to calculate and he talks nonsense."

Zhao Hui nodded and said, "Well, she won't get married this year. She still has to stay at home to take care of Xiaomei. We'll talk about it next year."

"Xiaomei is already so old, can't she take care of herself? Let Xiaojing go to school first."

"What's the point of studying? It just costs the family money. You see, she studied for many years, and our family lost a lot of money. Do you know that?"

"She's going to take the exam next month. If she fails and you don't let her study, I will definitely not speak for her."

"What if I pass the exam? Who will support me?"

"With such a large family like ours, can't we afford to support a little sister?"

"That's easy to say, Boss. You haven't married yet. You'll need money to marry a wife, and you'll need money to have children. If you can't even support your wife and children, how are you going to support her?"

"That's right, big brother, just listen to mom." Feng Xiaomei said, "No matter how good you are at studying, what does it have to do with you? If she passes the exam and becomes a city dweller, she will be like an educated youth who has returned to the city and will never come back. No matter how much you give to her now, it will all be in vain. It would be better to marry her off next year and get a dowry. When she returns to her parents' home during the holidays, she can give you two bags of sugar."

Zhao Hui immediately said, "Your elder sister is right, Boss, you are not as clear-headed as your elder sister."

Feng Xiaojing stood at the door, tears welling up in her eyes.

She tried desperately to take off, but what broke her wings was not the difficulty of the exam, but her family.

Is this her family?

"How can there be people like you in this world who don't want their daughters to be good parents?"

"What did you say, you damn girl?"

Feng Xiaojing wiped her tears and said, "I don't want you to support me, and I don't want you to pay for my tuition. Even if I have to pick up junk to buy it, I will never spend a penny of your money again."

After saying that, she went straight into the house, packed her things, and ran away.

She had very little stuff, just a canvas bag filled to the brim, half of which was her books.

Feng Xiao wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by Zhao Hui.

"Let her go. I'll see where she can go."

Where else can Feng Xiaojing go? After hiding in the haystack and crying for a while, she returned to Fengmian's house carrying a big bag.

Feng Mian was eating when he heard a strange noise outside, so he asked Gu Yuelin to go out and take a look.

Then I saw Feng Xiaojing standing there with red eyes.

"Little cousin? Why are you here so late? Come in."

Feng Xiaojing followed Gu Yuelin in and was very envious when she saw the bright lights in their house.

Feng Mian put down his chopsticks and hurriedly asked her to sit down.

Gu Yuelin went to the kitchen and filled her bowl with rice and took out chopsticks.

"Eat first, we'll talk after you eat." Feng Mian said to her.
