She has a different type of beauty than Wen Xi and Lin Yiwan. It would be really difficult to rank the three of them, since beauty is in the eye of the beholder!
"Are there other female educated youths here?" Wang Xinru asked疑惑地, "Then why is Tian Shengnan the only one in the dormitory?"
Jiang Mo explained, "Tian Xiaoke and Xia Minglei are already married. They built a thatched hut outside and live there, just a few steps away from here. Wang Caiyun and Wu Guoqiang are also married. You'll see them when we have dinner tonight."
When Wang Xinru heard Xia Minglei's name, she raised her eyebrows in surprise. She hadn't expected Xia Minglei to be so handsome, and she was even more surprised that he was already married.
Her family arranged for her to go to the countryside so that she could develop a relationship with Xia Minglei and then go back to get married.
Unexpectedly, Xia Minglei secretly married a female comrade who was also an educated youth in the countryside. He didn't even tell his family. Was he planning to pretend to be single?
Wang Xinru decided to go to the city another day to send a telegram home, telling her family that Xia Minglei had gotten married, so that they would know about the Xia family's concealment and expectations of the Wang family.
When Yang Li saw Xia Minglei, her eyes lit up. Xia Minglei was wearing a watch on his wrist, which showed that he was quite well-off.
As for being married, there's no need to worry about that. There's no such thing as a cat that doesn't steal fish. She'd probably just beckon him with a snap of his fingers. Her mother is someone else's mistress.
Her mother was a good woman when she was young, serving her parents-in-law and taking care of her husband. She was so good, yet her father still had other women outside the marriage.
The money was given to that woman, and so was the love.
Her mother was heartbroken and made a scene, demanding a separation. Why should she, the original wife, serve her in-laws at home and do so much housework, while the mistress didn't have to do anything and could just enjoy life?
Later, forced by life's circumstances, her mother also became a mistress. After a few times, she tasted the sweetness of it and understood why so many women were willing to be mistresses or concubines.
Because it's just so great! She doesn't have to serve her in-laws, doesn't have to be criticized or scolded by them every day, and doesn't have endless housework. Most importantly, her husband will give her money, buy her gifts, and make her happy.
Before, when she was Yang Li's daughter-in-law, her father never bought her a single gift, nor did he ever coax her. Her in-laws always felt that she was not good enough for Yang Li's father. After she gave birth to Yang Li, they treated her with contempt.
Her mother told her that in this life, she should never be a wife, let alone a daughter-in-law, because once you have these two identities, no matter how hard you work your whole life, others will only despise you, not be grateful to you, let alone love you. Moreover, after a while, when you become a haggard old woman, they will kick you out of the house.
In this era where only men can survive, if you are kicked out of your home, there is no way to live.
Therefore, Yang Li had no intention of getting married. She didn't want to become a wife or daughter-in-law. She wanted to be like her mother, doing nothing and still being pampered and supported by others.
Moreover, under her mother's influence, winning over a young man like Xia Minglei was not difficult for her, since Xia Minglei had not yet become a seasoned veteran.
Jiang Yue naturally knew that her younger brother had come today. In order to prevent him from bothering her, Jiang Yue chose to take the initiative.
When Jiang Yue arrived, everyone was standing in the courtyard. Jiang Yue said, "I'm here to see my younger brother, Jiang Yang." Then Jiang Yue waved to Jiang Yang, "Jiang Yang, come here quickly, I need your help with something."
In this era, boys are pampered at home, so they have a sense of pride in their bones. Some selfish people even feel that their brothers and sisters are taking away the resources that should belong to them!
Just like food, if there is one less child, can he eat more?
But they don't realize that if there's one less child in the family, the share of food will naturally be less.
So when Jiang Yang saw Jiang Yue, he wasn't particularly happy. But the thought that Jiang Yue was here and could serve him in the future, and that he could entrust his affairs to Jiang Yue, made Jiang Yang's face relax a lot.
"Sis, why aren't you in the dorm? Do you live outside?" Jiang Yang asked suspiciously. Was his sister so well-off that she could live outside?
Jiang Yue lives outside, how will I wash his clothes and cook for him in the future?
Seeing everyone looking at her, Jiang Yue smiled awkwardly, "I don't live here, I live with my friend. Jiang Yang, did Mom ask you to bring me money when you came? I owe my friend eighty yuan in the past year. I'm your older sister, can you help me pay off the debt? Otherwise, with my work points, I probably won't be able to pay it off in five years!"
Jiang Yue wanted to portray herself as a penniless person so that Jiang Yang wouldn't bother her.
Jiang Yang is a boy and is spoiled at home. His parents must have brought him money when he went to the countryside this time. If Jiang Yang is willing to spend the money with her, she will naturally treat him well. But if Jiang Yang doesn't care about her life or death, she won't care about Jiang Yang's life or death in the future.
Keep in mind, she only brought thirty yuan with her when she went to the countryside, not even enough to buy furniture.
"What?" Upon hearing this, Jiang Yang immediately shook off Jiang Yue's hand, frowning in displeasure. "Sis, how can you spend so much money? How did you spend so much?"
Jiang Yue looked up at Jiang Yang and approached him step by step. "I need to eat, buy clothes, and have furniture made. After a year, I've only spent this little bit of money. Is that really a lot? Have you spent several times more than me? How much money did your parents give you? I'm also a member of the family. Take out your money and give me half."
"Don't even think about it. This money was given to me by my family," Jiang Yang retorted. This money was his livelihood in the countryside, how could he give it to Jiang Yue?
"Jiang Yang, are you sure you won't give it to me?" Jiang Yue stared at Jiang Yang with wide eyes and utmost seriousness.
"My parents didn't give me much money, how can I give it to you? I don't even know if I can support myself!" Jiang Yang said somewhat guiltily. He had several hundred yuan in total, which was more than a year's salary for most people!
"Fine, you won't give it to me, huh? Then I'll go find Captain Qian and have him write a document severing ties. From now on, don't call me 'sister,' don't acknowledge me, and don't look for me again. If you still want to acknowledge me as your sister, then give me 120 yuan. 80 yuan to pay off my debts, and 40 yuan to buy me some things. The New Year is coming soon, and I want to buy myself a new outfit!" Jiang Yue looked at Jiang Yang with a smile, her eyes full of threat.
