Wen Qiao thought she would only be gone for two days and would be back on the third day. Besides, there was no need to take a shower in this weather, so she didn't go back to pack her things. Instead, she made a call to the housekeeper.
I informed them.
He immediately went to his hometown with Lü Yazhi.
She didn't realize it while she was on the train.
But after getting off the train, looking at the gray and white small county town, it was a stark contrast to the metropolis in the north.
Lü Yazhi also sighed.
"I didn't feel anything when I was in the countryside, but I've gotten used to living in Beicheng for the past few years, so it's a bit hard to get used to coming back."
“Xiao Qiao, remember what I told you in the car. Your uncle is the worst kind of person. Don’t try to reason with him. This trip is to cut ties and never have anything to do with him again.”
Wen Qiao hummed in agreement, "I remember everything."
In fact, Wen Qiao understood why her mother insisted on coming back. She knew that her uncle was a scoundrel and her grandmother was even worse, favoring sons over daughters and selling her daughter directly.
Now that she knows her daughter is doing well, she wants to reconnect with her.
If this matter is left unattended, Lü Yazhi is worried that it will escalate to the Wu family.
Wu Yongliang was a military region commander, and Lü Yazhi was naturally worried that her family members, who were not respectable, would embarrass her.
It would be better to come back to my hometown and resolve it myself.
Besides severing ties with her family, Lü Yazhi also wanted to take away the recipes recorded by her late father from her mother.
Lu Yazhi's father used to be a cook in the imperial kitchen.
After arriving in the county town, the mother and daughter stayed overnight and went to their hometown the next morning.
Lu Yazhi's family home was a few miles away from Wangjia Village. Lu Yazhi and Wen Qiao found a horse-drawn carriage in the county town. There were no taxis in the small county town, so people preferred to use oxcarts, horse-drawn carriages, or tractors to travel between the county town and the countryside.
Wen Qiao found a horse-drawn carriage and took them to Xiaoniu Village.
Lu Yazhi looked around at the unfamiliar village. Only the road at the entrance of the village gave her some memories of the past.
"Everything has changed; it looks completely different now."
Wen Qiao added, "Mom, it's normal for things to change. Let's get things done first..."
For Wen Qiao, it wasn't that she disliked the countryside, but rather that she disliked some of the malicious people there. Because in the countryside, few people have access to education, and as a result, their moral compass and standards are very shallow.
Some widows even had affairs with men in the village, just for some grain and a few pocket money, showing absolutely no sense of morality.
And what other wives, while their husbands are away, hook up with other men, sleep with them, get pregnant, and give birth without any hesitation, without feeling any problem whatsoever?
Of course, there are good people too.
But in the countryside, good people, unless they are strong themselves, are often the ones who get bullied.
Her mother is the most typical example.
They are so kind that when they are bullied, they will only say, "Don't do this, we're all from the same village, it's not nice."
The men who bullied her seemed respectable during the day, but at night they were like demons, practically lurking in the windows of the Wang family's house.
Because the men in the village knew that Wang Dayong was having an affair with a widow in the village.
Some people egged her on, making a fuss in front of Lu Yazhi, saying, "Your husband is having an affair with a widow outside, so you should be having an affair with a man at home."
These words were clearly meant to humiliate Lü Yazhi.
Lu Yazhi dislikes the countryside even more than Wen Qiao. Before her awakening, she didn't feel anything about it, but now, the thought of her past experiences makes her feel physically nauseous and want to vomit.
Especially some men who usually call her "uncle" or "brother," but the way they look at her is dirty and lewd.
