Song Qing and Lu Yang's marriage was a muddled affair. At the beginning of that special era, fearing implication, her parents forced her to break up with her ex-boyfriend and used their connect...
I never expected this. I just told my son to stay away from this vixen, and today she dares to come to my door and confront him. How can she be so shameless?
"You're short of men? There are plenty of men in the world willing to sleep with you. My son has high standards and wouldn't even look at your worn-out shoes. You've been trampled on so much, yet you still dare to come to our door. We're an upright family in this building. You're such a bad omen!"
Yang Chunhua, in a shrill voice, pointed directly at Liu Xia's face and started cursing, saying the most vicious things possible. Soon, everyone in the building rushed outside with their rice bowls in hand.
"You vixen, you come back to cling to my son the moment your country man dumps you? My son has a decent job, who would want you? You're dragging two kids along, and you think you can make him raise someone else's son? Dream on! Get the hell out of here, or I'll slap you!"
"...Who is this? Has she lost her mind and started cursing at people like that?"
She looked quite young, and most importantly, she had two children with her. The two children were hiding behind their mother, their hands trembling with fear.
It's easy to see who's more assertive when comparing the two, and everyone instinctively sided with Liu Xia.
What era are we living in that people still call someone a "slut"? Anyone who didn't know better would think that the girl seduced her dead husband.
"Chen Wei has been dating a new girl lately, and I'm guessing it's this girl. Yang Chunhua threw a tantrum at home last night, she definitely won't allow them to be together."
Although everyone felt sorry for Xiaosheng, fearing that he would have a terrible life if he married a stepmother, they also couldn't stand seeing Yang Chunhua scolding the girl like that, especially since she had two children.
Dating is a matter of mutual consent between two people. It's not like the girl forced your son to date her at knifepoint. Now that you're not satisfied, you're blaming everything on her.
She always blames others for everything, and her youngest son is the only good one.
"Alright, Yang Chunhua, what did they do to you? Talk to them properly."
"Dating is a matter between two people. What if Chen Wei is just patting the girl on the back? Look how beautiful she is, and look at your son, he looks so pathetic!"
Yang Chunhua was cursing loudly when she was so angry at the people in the building that she almost choked on her own saliva. What did they mean by saying that her son looked ugly?
In the past, the daughters of leaders would take a liking to her son; he was known for his good looks in several nearby factories.
Liu Xia had already made up her mind. Since she had already started dating this man, she was going to marry him no matter what, as her family could no longer accept her.
After guessing Yang Chunhua's identity, he held the two children's hands tightly, lowered his head, and let her scold him. He couldn't argue with her now that he had no official status.
Because her insults were so offensive, the people around her gradually began to criticize Yang Chunhua.
Enraged, Yang Chunhua simply cursed everyone in, saying they were all bewitched by this little vixen.
"Come on, Yang Chunhua. She's just dating your son. Do you have to berate her like this? If anyone's infatuated with her, it's your son."
"All the women outside are vixens, while your son is innocent and knows nothing. Is he still breastfeeding? How could someone seduce him so easily?"
"Pah! What business is it of yours if I scold her? You're all just bored and have nothing better to do. Instead of wasting your time, hurry up and drag your own men back home, or you'll end up crying on your bed after this vixen has seduced you!"
How can someone be so unreasonable? Her son is already over 40 years old, and her grandson is almost old enough to get married, yet she still accuses someone of seducing her son.
Yes, his son doesn't understand anything, and these two grandsons just popped out of the ground.
Just as everyone was about to exchange insults, Chen Wei paced outside Liu Xia's house for a long time but didn't see anyone come out. He didn't have the courage to go to her house, so he could only think of going home first.
He thought, "I'll go find her tomorrow." But then he heard his mother's shrill voice not far from his house, and his anger flared up immediately.
I walked a few steps forward and saw his mother standing with her hands on her hips, pointing at Liu Xia with a vicious tone that seemed to want to devour her. The words she was saying were even more offensive. She even cursed at the neighbors who couldn't stand it and tried to persuade her.
"Mom, what are you doing?"
Chen Wei ran up and stood between the two of them. Yang Chunhua almost spat on him, but stopped talking when she saw her son.
“You vixen son, how dare you come to our door! Listen to your mother, kick them out right now! They brought their two sons here to suck your blood. Let me tell you, as long as I’m alive, don’t even think about setting foot in our house.”
Chen Wei didn't say anything and quickly turned to look at Liu Xia's face, only to find that she was just lowering her head and silently shedding tears.
Men are always like this, harboring a self-righteous savior complex, believing themselves to be heroes who must protect the weak, especially since this weak person is their woman.
If Liu Xia were standing here arguing with Yang Chunhua, Chen Wei might not necessarily side with her. But now, one is full of vigor and anger, while the other is just bowing her head and silently shedding tears.
Chen Wei's heart clenched immediately.
"Alright, Mom, stop talking."
It was so cold that Xiaoxia's hands were red from the cold. Chen Wei wanted to ask her why she was standing there with her child, but he didn't expect that his defense of Liu Xia would only make Yang Chunhua angrier.
"Son, you're actually defending her! Don't forget you promised your mother you would never marry this vixen! She's only after our family's wealth! She's just trying to leech off you by bringing two children along. Don't be fooled by this vixen!"
There are better people waiting for you. Mom has already asked a matchmaker to introduce you to someone.
Upon hearing this, Chen Wei immediately became anxious and rushed to look at Liu Xia's face, only to find that she kept her head down and tears were dripping onto the ground.
"No, no, Mom, don't talk nonsense. I want to marry Xiaoxia, I want to marry her."
After saying that, she grabbed Liu Xia's hand, wanting to assure her that she would definitely marry her. Yang Chunhua was so angry that her mind went blank. She went up to Liu Xia, grabbed her collar, and started hitting her.
