A modern wealthy young woman, Luo Jingyan, accidentally transmigrated to the 1970s, becoming a short-lived minor supporting character in a period novel. Her parents were framed, forcing her to take...
Luo Jingyan said to Sun Tiantian, "What they can use against you most is your sense of shame. A girl's reputation is of utmost importance. As long as you can prove your innocence, they will naturally become the liars. Not only will you not have to marry that Zhang guy, but on the contrary, they will be punished."
What should I do?
"Come here."
Luo Jingyan beckoned to her, then whispered a few words in her ear.
He then added, "As long as you have evidence to prove your innocence and the police are there to uphold justice for you, they can't do anything to you. You can even sue them for defamation. With the police around, they will definitely stand up for you."
"Jingyan, do we really have to do this?"
Sun Tiantian blushed instantly after hearing Luo Jingyan's suggestion. Although she thought Luo Jingyan's suggestion made a lot of sense, her conservative mindset made her hesitate.
"Sweetie, this kind of test isn't illegal, and it's done privately in the hospital. It might make you a little embarrassed, and you'll need to overcome some mental barriers. Think about it, if you don't do it, do you want to be falsely accused and forced to marry Zhang Ridong, living a muddled life here forever? Don't forget what kind of person that old woman Zhang is. Even if you accept Zhang Ridong, will she treat you well? You need to think it through carefully. Not doing it now will cause big trouble later. This isn't the old era anymore; we women need to protect ourselves scientifically. Of course, I'm just expressing my personal opinion. If you don't like it, you don't have to do it. It's up to you."
Sun Tiantian thought for a while, then gritted her teeth and said, "Jingyan, compared to marrying Zhang Ridong, what's a medical checkup? I haven't stolen or robbed anything, I haven't done anything wrong. It's just a medical checkup. Let people gossip if they want. Compared to Zhang Pozi's slander against me, and having to risk my innocence, this is really insignificant. Jingyan, I'll go."
"Mm." Luo Jingyan nodded.
That evening, since Luo's father and Grandma Zhang had not yet returned from the hospital, Luo Jingyan went to the cowshed to keep her mother company as usual. The next morning, after breakfast, Sun Tiantian walked through the thick snow to the county town.
She originally wanted to ask Luo Jingyan to go with her, but when she thought about how there was thick snow everywhere outside and that the road to the county town was not yet accessible by oxcart, she felt embarrassed to ask Luo Jingyan to go with her, so she went to the county town alone.
She didn't return until almost noon, accompanied by two police officers in white uniforms, a man and a woman.
When the three arrived at the educated youth settlement, Granny Zhang and Zhang Ridong were already waiting there. They had originally asked Sun Tiantian to go to the Zhang family's house, but when they arrived, they didn't see Sun Tiantian, so they waited.
Besides the mother and son, several other women also came. These women had come yesterday and were dragged over again by Granny Zhang today. They also came to watch the excitement and see if Granny Zhang and Zhang Ridong could get Sun Tiantian to become a daughter-in-law in the Zhang family. If Sun Tiantian resisted and made a scene with the Zhang family, there would be a good show to watch.
The villagers love watching the lively gossip, especially today's spectacle with added colored waste. If they miss out on such a great show, they'll probably regret it for half a year.
Then several women with children arrived. They had all heard the news and rushed over, all to watch the grand wedding spectacle.
When they saw the police, they were instinctively afraid. They wanted to leave with their children, but also wanted to stay. In the end, they didn't leave. They just took a few meters back, as if they were outsiders. Even if a fight broke out in the educated youth compound, as long as the blood didn't get on them, it would be fine.
Grandma Zhang never expected that Sun Tiantian would actually bring the police. When she suddenly saw the police, she panicked because she felt guilty for spreading rumors.
At least she was an older woman who had seen all sorts of people, and she calmed down in no time. Anyway, she had found witnesses who could prove that Sun Tiantian had seduced her son, and no one could prove that Sun Tiantian was innocent. When the police came, they would also need evidence. Sun Tiantian had no evidence to refute them, so she would have to obediently go to the Zhang family with them. Otherwise, she would sue Sun Tiantian for ruining her son's reputation.
Thankfully, Luo Jingyan didn't hear her inner thoughts. If she had, she would have been torn between praising her for her progressive thinking or condemning her for being despicable, vulgar, and shameless.
Sun Tiantian had already spoken with the police officers at the police station, so she felt confident and was no longer afraid of the Zhang family.
She pointed at the Zhang family mother and son and said to the police, "Officers, it was these two who framed me and are trying to force me to marry into their family." She then pointed to the woman who gave false testimony yesterday: "She said she was an eyewitness, but she gave false testimony. She is in cahoots with the Zhang family mother and son. They conspired to frame me. Please, officers, do justice for me and give me justice."
Old Mrs. Zhang immediately retorted, "Officer, don't listen to her nonsense. Who framed her? She clearly said she would marry my son and even tarnished his reputation. People saw it with their own eyes, yet she still accuses them of perjury. She's the one lying. Please, officer, do justice for my poor son and make her take responsibility for him."
“I have always been innocent,” Sun Tian said, emphasizing each word.
"You seduced my son, you even slept with Ridong, what kind of innocence do you have?"
Sun Tiantian gritted her teeth, then took out an examination form from her bag and handed it to the female police officer next to her.
"Officer, this is my evidence to prove my innocence."
The policewoman took the inspection form and showed it to Granny Zhang, regardless of whether she could read or not.
“This educated youth, Sun, has already had a gynecologist examine her at the county hospital. This is her examination report. She is a completely innocent young woman and has no relation to your son. Your accusations against her are pure slander. You should be held responsible for this matter. She is a victim, and you should provide her with some form of compensation.”
Granny Zhang is illiterate. If she didn't know she had done something immoral, she would have already started making a scene.
Feeling guilty, she just stared intently at the medical report she didn't recognize, unable to look away for a long time.
There's no way there's a test in this world that can prove a woman is a virgin! It's outrageous!
The key point is that Sun Tiantian, that shameless person, actually did it. She really has no shame!
"Officer, I can't read. What does that check mean? How can it prove that Sun Zhiqing is a virgin? I've never heard of such a check before."
Sun Tiantian walked up to her and said through gritted teeth, "So, you think there's no such thing as a test in this world, and you think that I can't explain myself after you framed me, so you came up with this way to frame me and make me marry into your family and become your daughter-in-law. I bet your son will never be able to find a wife, so you came up with this plan."
"We didn't harm you."
Old Granny Zhang remained incorrigible, stubbornly refusing to admit her fate, acting as if she were a dead pig unaware of the danger, completely oblivious to the fact that she was about to die.
