The couple didn't seem to expect that someone would meddle in their affairs?
They looked at Su Ying and Jiang Yue beside her. After a moment of hesitation, the woman stood up and started cursing at Su Ying.
"Who do you think you are? This is our family's business. What does it have to do with you?"
The boy's cake was snatched away and he burst into tears.
Seeing this, the woman became even more angry.
"You are an adult, bullying a child, how shameless of you?" She stepped forward and was about to snatch the pancake from Su Ying's hand.
Su Ying sneered and handed the pancake in her hand to the girl, preventing her from succeeding.
She also knew that what she did today was indeed a bit impulsive, but what happened in her hometown when she was a child left an indelible psychological shadow in her heart.
At that time, her father had just been transferred to a machinery factory, and her mother was very busy at work, so she could only take care of her older brother.
Her second brother went to school with her grandparents, so she was sent to her hometown to be taken care of by her grandparents.
At that time, her grandparents treated her even worse than this couple did. She still remembers the insults they used to scold her.
Whenever there is something delicious at home, my grandparents will save it for my uncle's son.
They even told her more than once that her parents didn't want her because she was a girl.
She was young at that time and just looked forward to her parents picking her up every day, but because of her grandparents' words, she gradually hated herself for not being a boy.
She also remembered that they never let her sit at the table during meals.
Every day she could only eat the leftovers of her uncle's family. Sometimes there was not even any leftovers, so she had to go to bed hungry.
Even when she was sleeping, he would just spread a mat on the ground and throw an old quilt on her, not caring whether she was cold in winter or not?
So she lived in her hometown in the countryside for a year.
Later, I was almost sold out by the old couple.
If her parents hadn't arrived in time, she wouldn't know where she would be now.
At that time, my mother brought my older brothers to the countryside to visit me.
Seeing her wearing only a thin piece of clothing in the middle of winter, her body turning purple from the cold, and her skinny body barely having any flesh on it, I felt so distressed that I shed tears.
She still remembered that day that her mother had a mad scene in her hometown and almost divorced her father because of her.
From that time on, her mother kept her by her side and was reluctant to leave her to be taken care of by others.
Because of that incident, my mother stopped contacting her hometown.
Occasionally, when something happens in the countryside, it is always my father who goes back alone.
The girl looked at the pancake stuffed into her hand and her face immediately turned frightened.
She looked at her parents, swallowed, and didn't dare to eat at all.
"Just eat it. I wonder who dares to hit you today?" Su Ying looked at the couple with a warning look in her eyes.
"Thank you, Auntie. I'm not hungry."
The girl finally handed the pancake in her hand to the little boy. She didn't dare to eat it because she knew that if she ate it today, she would be beaten even more badly after getting off the bus.
She has become accustomed to such days. As long as her brother is well, she will be fine.
The little boy got the pancake and imitated his mother's behavior. He raised his hand and slapped the girl hard.
"You dare to eat my food? Are you looking for a fight?"
The girl didn't dare to say anything and could only hide aside, covering her face, tears of grievance welling up in her eyes.
Seeing this, Jiang Yue reached out and pulled Su Ying.
Although they knew she meant well, it was her own business after all, and it was not in their power to interfere.
Su Ying also knew that if she intervened forcibly, the girl would only be beaten even worse.
She frowned and could only give up for the time being.
She was indeed too impulsive just now. When she saw the girl being bullied, she couldn't help but think of the past.
At this moment, the man said "Pah" in the direction of Su Ying and Jiang Yue, and cursed: "You bitch, why are you meddling in other people's business? That money-losing girl is my daughter after all. How I treat her is our family's business."
After he finished speaking, Jiang Yue glanced at him coldly, with a warning in his eyes.
The man had never seen such a cold look in his eyes. He was frightened by Jiang Yue and had to shut his mouth.
The woman also came over at this time, glared at Su Ying, reached out and twisted the girl's arm, and pulled her over.
The girl cried in pain, but she managed to hold it in and not scream out.
Seeing this, Su Ying's face turned even darker.
At this moment, the woman said to the little girl, "Your escort will be here soon. Be smart. We've raised you up, and it's time for you to be repaid."
After she finished speaking, she took the girl to the bathroom.
When they came out again, Su Ying saw that the girl had been dressed up and changed into a clean new set of clothes. She looked much better than her pitiful appearance just now.
When Su Ying saw this scene, she suddenly remembered that the idea of favoring boys over girls was prevalent these days.
Many people sell their daughters to bachelors or old widowers as their wives.
Moreover, they don’t know that their behavior is no different from that of human traffickers. Of course, many of these transactions are between them and human traffickers.
After the girl was dressed up, she stood aside obediently.
Su Ying was feeling upset because of what happened just now.
She wanted to save the girl, but she knew it would be difficult under the circumstances. Even if she saved her this time, she wouldn't be able to save her in the future.
She has become accustomed to this lifestyle and it is difficult to change it with the help of outsiders.
At this time, she calmed down a little. She sat down with Jiang Yue, opened the can next to the table, and started eating.
The little boy had just wanted to eat her canned food. As soon as the can was opened, the sweet smell filled the entire car.
"Mom, I want to eat canned food. I don't care. I just want to eat canned food." The boy looked at the canned food in Su Ying's hand and cried.
Su Ying seemed not to hear and continued eating her own food.
"Are you fucking deaf? Didn't you hear him asking for canned food? Why don't you think of a way?" At this moment, the man slapped the woman's face impatiently and yelled loudly.
The woman seemed to be accustomed to being beaten, and she looked at Su Ying in panic.
"Sister, I apologize for what happened just now. Can you give my son a bite of your canned food?" The woman also put on a brave face and looked at Su Ying with a pleading look.
Seeing this, Su Ying snorted coldly, "Sorry, this can of food is not enough for me to eat."
In the end, the woman had no choice but to comfort her son as she couldn't get the canned food.
What Su Ying didn't expect was that the boy bit and hit the woman, yelling, "You bitch, if you don't give me the can, I'll find me a new mother."
