A modern, vibrant young woman named Xie Yan died prematurely and was reborn with her memories into the harsh 1950s. The good news was that she had a golden finger, the spatial ability she had alway...
Sometimes, Xie Yan felt that "people" were really ridiculous. Everyone has hundreds of faces, and they are all ever-changing. When their interests are not affected, everyone can treat you with kindness and pleasantries. When you mistakenly believe that the world is really wonderful and that your life is very fulfilling.
When there is a genuine conflict of interest, or rather, when they feel there is something to gain, their true colors—whether they are human or treacherous—will be revealed one by one.
Take the matter of going to the countryside, for example. It was originally the Xie family's own business. Whether they went to the countryside or not, and who went to the countryside, was none of anyone else's business. But the neighbors who were usually kind and friendly to you, who were calling you grandpa or uncle yesterday, could turn around and report you the next day.
How ridiculous!
But this world is so ridiculous, full of scheming, jealousy and other ugly things.
There aren't that many wonderful things!
Whether Xie Yan goes to the countryside or not, and when he goes, has absolutely nothing to do with anyone else, but there are always people watching the Xie family every moment.
This person is Wang Xiuer!
Upon seeing Xie Yan, she asked, "Oh! Isn't this Xie Yan? Have you confirmed who's going to the countryside? Is it you or your sister?"
"Logically speaking, it should be your sister who goes to the countryside. After all, you are the eldest son in the family, and your parents should at least get you a job. But I heard that your family is very supportive of you going to the countryside!"
Listen to this blatant attempt to sow discord. This piece of rubbish! Xie Yan has called him "uncle" for over ten years, and before this, he naively thought that this uncle was a kind and reasonable person.
Looking back now, they were such a pushover! The reason they were so kind and easy to talk to a few years ago was simply because they had a lot of kids and weren't doing so well!
They were humble and polite. In the past two years, their children have grown up, and they have more daughters. With the money from selling their daughters as bride prices, their lives have gradually improved. With money, they have started to get arrogant.
He'll meddle in everyone's affairs, no matter what! He turns small problems into big ones! It's like that's the only way he can show off how powerful he is!
Their true colors are gradually being revealed; they are disgusting creatures with the hearts of beasts, doing nothing but selfish and harmful things. They are utterly repulsive.
What a despicable bastard!
I've started keeping a close eye on Xie Yan's family every day, just to find out if they've paid for Xie Yan to get a job. If they have, I want to sell that information to other people who want to work.
It's the season for sending children to the countryside, and every family has children who need to go. Many of these children are the apple of their parents' eyes, and how can they bear to let them suffer in the countryside? Finding a job has become an urgent matter!
People in the city are now fighting tooth and nail for a job, and many are willing to pay a lot of money just for a piece of job information.
Wang Xiuer has been keeping a close eye on the Xie family every day, with this as her plan!
Although Xie Yan knew his plan was going to fail, it was still disgusting that such a disgusting thing was hanging around right under his nose every day!
At the previous thank-you banquets, I was mindful of the relationship between the two families and didn't want to say anything unpleasant; I could only pretend that I understood what he was saying.
Unexpectedly, this only fueled his arrogance, and he began to act recklessly.
Xie Yan had been wandering around for the past few days without being able to get any work information, which made him extremely irritable. And now he was just walking into the line of fire!
Very well! Xie Yan couldn't hold back anymore! She's dropping the pretense!
She asked directly, "Uncle Wang, you're so free every day! Has your son Wang Qi found a job yet? Oh! Of course he has! After all, so many older sisters are paving the way for him!"
Then, with a hint of tea-tea sarcasm, she said, "Unlike me, sigh! I don't have so many great older sisters. I'm so envious of Wang Qi! His sisters are all so capable; finding a job must be a piece of cake for them, right?"
"I should have a good talk with Wang Qi tomorrow and find out where he works so I can celebrate with him! But with the connections of Wang Qi's older sisters, he can pick and choose any job he wants! He can go wherever he wants! Sigh! I'm so envious!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Xiuer's eyes widened in anger, her nose bulged, and she glared at Xie Yan, panting heavily. Pointing her finger at Xie Yan, she shouted, "You! You! How did your parents raise you? How can you talk to your elders like that! You deserve to be abandoned by your family. If it weren't for your father's sake, I would have slapped you to death!"
Everyone in this neighborhood knows that his act of selling his daughter has caused her to have a very difficult time in her husband's family. How could they possibly find a job for their son?
It was precisely because his daughters were unable to find a job for their son that Wang Qicai had no choice but to go to the countryside, and his name was already on the list.
It was precisely because his son was destined to go to the countryside that he kept an eye on this family building. Every household had to go to the countryside, and no one could be an exception. They all had to suffer with his son!
Xie Yan chuckled twice: "Sorry! I almost forgot, your Wang Qi is also going to the countryside! Sigh! I just don't know if he can handle the hardship! I've heard that life in the countryside is very tough!"
Xie Yan's words immediately enraged Wang Xiuer. Clutching her chest, she cursed, "You idiot! I was trying to help you, and you use these words to insult me. Someone like you deserves to be struck by lightning! How dare you talk to me like that, you ill-mannered brat!"
Xie Yan burst out laughing. "Whose elder are you? You're hilarious! Jumping around up and down this building all day, pretending to be all high and mighty! Do I need your kindness? Asking all these questions, how does that make you seem important? What does it matter to you whether I go to the countryside or not?"
"I have no manners, but you have good manners, always so interested in other people's business, like a clown! You're showing off, didn't your mother teach you not to meddle in other people's affairs?"
These words really hit Wang Xiu where it hurt, and he jumped up and even wanted to hit Xie Yan. The neighbors who were watching the commotion quickly pulled him back, and of course, they also pulled Xie Yan back, otherwise Xie Yan would have definitely shown him the consequences of hitting him.
Hearing the foul language coming from his mouth, Xie Yan's blood pressure soared, and he shouted, "What are you barking about, you dog? If you can bark so much, why don't you find a rope and tie yourself up to the factory gate and guard it!"
The person next to Xie Yan quickly said, "Oh dear! You can't say things like that! No matter how bad he is, he's still your parents' generation. Just pretend you didn't hear what he said. Everyone knows that's just how he is, oh, he's the kind of person who jokes like that!"
Xie Yan was furious! Who decided that older people can just insult younger people and make jokes?! The younger generation can't talk back? Your mother is your mother, but other people's aren't?!
You use foul language to insult other people's parents, and you treat it as normal, just because you are of the same generation as their parents, and your parents can't stand it when they respond to you!
We're all children; whose parents aren't parents too?
Xie Yan deserves to be scolded back!
