Chapter 26 Framed
When they were halfway through their meal, someone came outside the door looking for Meng Ruoxi. When she went out, she found it was Wang Lili, whom she hadn't seen for a while.
He hesitated for a moment, with a bad feeling in his heart.
When Wang Lili saw her, her eyes lit up with joy, "Ruoxi, I have something to talk to you about."
Thinking of Wang Caixia, Meng Ruoxi understood, "What's the matter?"
Wang Lili looked around and found no one, so she dared to say, "Can you ask the village chief to go to Liu Daqiang's house and ask him to agree to divorce me?"
Meng Ruoxi looked at her in shock, "Divorce? Why? What happened?"
Wang Lili seemed to know that she was in the wrong. She looked embarrassed and spoke in a voice as soft as a mosquito, "My family got a quota to return to the city. I want to go back..."
After hearing the meaning of her words, Meng Ruoxi immediately became serious and said, "I would rather demolish ten temples than destroy a marriage. I'm sorry, I can't help you."
Wang Lili burst into tears and looked at her pleadingly, "Please help me, returning to the city has been my dream for many years. If you don't help me, I really can't go back. I will have to stay here for the rest of my life. Can you bear it?" As she said that, she grabbed Meng Ruoxi's hand and was about to kneel down.
She was disgusted, squatted down and quickly pulled the person up from the ground, and gently advised, "If you listen to me, you should give birth to the baby in your belly, and don't think about going back to the city. There is nothing bad in the village, you should stay here with a grateful and contented heart."
She spoke clearly and righteously.
Wang Lili's eyes widened, looking at her like she was crazy, "Are you crazy? What's good about the village? Every day, all you do is farm. If you give birth to a child, he or she will have a rural hukou and won't be able to hold their heads up for the rest of their lives."
Meng Ruoxi shook her head gently, looking immersed in it, "I'm different from you. I like this place and want to stay here forever. You should go back and stop wasting time."
The moment I turned around, my hand was firmly grasped, and a decisive voice came, "If you don't help me, I have no choice but to apologize to you."
Meng Ruoxi immediately understood what she was going to do, and held her hand tightly, looking up and shouting to the surroundings, "Help, help, Wang Lili wants to have an abortion."
The villagers who had been hiding at the door and ready to make a move suddenly swarmed out and surrounded Wang Lili.
After her hands were freed from exerting force, Meng Ruoxi no longer wanted to have anything to do with this matter and explained to everyone.
"I don't know why Wang Lili suddenly grabbed me and wouldn't let go. She also said something about going back to the city. I tried to persuade her but to no avail. Please send her to Liu's house. I don't know if the baby in her belly can be saved."
Now everyone knew that Wang Lili was pregnant before marriage.
The Shi family also came out. Shi Yanjin pulled Meng Ruoxi over to look at her. He felt relieved to see that she was fine. He turned around and stared at Wang Lili who was crying non-stop with an unfriendly look. His voice was as cold as ice.
"You have done the evil yourself, don't involve my wife in this."
Li Taohua was also very angry and pointed at Wang Lili and spoke harshly.
"Why are you dragging my Ruoxi into this? Are you trying to get rid of the baby through her so that you can clear yourself of the blame? You have such a vicious heart! I warn you, put away your dirty thoughts, or you will suffer the consequences!"
Shi Lujing walked out from behind the crowd with an ugly look on his face and ordered in a cold voice, "Take them to Liu's house and let them handle it themselves."
"Okay."
Several tall and strong women immediately did as they were told and took Wang Lili to Liu's house.
Being from the same village, they share the same hatred and enemy.
As the village chief, Shi Lujing went along.
He has always been protective of his children. Meng Ruoxi is now a member of his family. If outsiders want to bully or frame her, they have to see if he agrees.
Back at the dinner table, Meng Ruoxi didn't think anything of it, but Li Taohua kept cursing.
"What a heartless bastard! If she wanted to beat the child, she could have done it far away instead of bringing bad luck to our house. What a stupid fool! Are the Liu family members that easy to talk to? I'll eat her alive."
Guan Meiling covered her chest and said, "Mom, Wang Lili is so terrible. She has married into the Liu family, but she still wants to go back to the city. It turns out that the educated youth are all ungrateful people who can never be tamed."
He directly scolded Meng Ruoxi as well.
Shi Yanjin frowned, "Sister-in-law, my Xixi did nothing wrong, and she didn't offend you. Just say what you want to say, don't take advantage of the situation."
Meng Ruoxi pursed her lips and said, "Sister-in-law, we are both women, both daughters-in-law of the Shi family. If I have offended you in any way, just tell me directly and I will apologize to you. There is no need to make indirect accusations."
Li Taohua was so angry that she fell backwards. "Meiling, if you can't talk, just shut up. All those educated youth are ungrateful. Ruoxi is gentle, virtuous, and polite. She keeps calling you sister-in-law. If you are not satisfied with anything, come to me."
Guan Meiling's eyes widened, and she quickly waved her hands to explain, "You misunderstood. Blame me for not explaining clearly. You forgot that Ruoxi was also an educated youth. I like her so much that I don't have any opinions."
Putting down her chopsticks, Meng Ruoxi laughed, "So, we misunderstood my sister-in-law. Come to think of it, a family should be united in dealing with the outside world. How can we harm our own people?"
Guan Meiling nodded shyly, "Yes."
Meng Ruoxi stood up and said, "I'm full, you guys take your time."
Shi Yanjin followed closely, "I'm full too."
Only Li Taohua and Guan Meiling were left at the dinner table.
Without her younger son and daughter-in-law present, Li Taohua put down her bowl and chopsticks and began to scold.
"You ruined a good meal like this. You are still a high school student. You are so naive. You should leave some space for us so that we can meet again in the future. You are sisters-in-law. You will have many places to visit in the future. Don't blame me for not reminding you. Yanchu really appreciates the brotherhood."
Guan Meiling was shocked, "Mom, I really didn't mean it."
Li Taohua was so disappointed that she couldn't make it. "You said you didn't mean it, but who else would believe it except you?"
Guan Meiling was completely depressed.
You can't say that you are too sensitive, because she does have that little thought, so it's a bit powerless to refute her.
Li Taohua ignored her. She had to go to work soon and didn't have much time to educate anyone.
In the room, Shi Yanjin hugged Meng Ruoxi and coaxed her, "Don't pay attention to your sister-in-law. She is simple-minded. She will show her bad intentions in public and will not act in private."
"I didn't take it seriously. I know she was just talking without thinking, but if I don't make it clear this time, she will do the same thing next time."
"I know, so I stand on your side. You are my wife, and I am the one who should educate you. It is not the right of others to make irresponsible remarks."
Meng Ruoxi frowned, "Educate me? My parents are already dead, you want to find them?"
Shi Yanjin sighed, "I was just talking. With your mouth, I can't teach you a lesson. My father-in-law and mother-in-law are living well in the underground. I won't bother them."
"Hmph." Meng Ruoxi sneered, looked up at the clock, and nudged him with her elbow, "It's getting late, hurry up and get to work."
“No hurry.”
Meng Ruoxi taught, "As a teacher, you should set a good example for your students."
When she first started working as a tutor, she was never late or left early, and was never late for training. She was always the last one to leave, strictly abided by the rules and time, worked harder than anyone else, and hated people who were late or left early the most.
Shi Yanjin suddenly had the illusion of facing a teacher at school. He sighed, let go of her hand and stood up. "I'll go to school. You stay at home."
After her body was freed, Meng Ruoxi stood up at once with a smile on her face, "Don't worry, I will be fine. I will go to school with you in a few days."
Shi Yanjin followed suit with a smile, "It doesn't have to be a few days, it can be done tomorrow."
Meng Ruoxi was delighted, "That's even better, we can go to and from get off work together then."
She draws real cakes to coax the man who often acts crazy, hoping that he will be more normal.
Shi Yanjin was suddenly delighted by her coaxing, and he had visions in his mind. He felt that she was being particularly sweet today, and his own image appeared in her eyes.
"You are in a good mood today."
Meng Ruoxi nodded, but said, "I am in a good mood every day."
Shi Yanjin shook his head imperceptibly.
He was very cruel in the past two days. He looked at me as if I were the murderer of his father. But today he suddenly changed. I don’t know what he was thinking.
But seeing that she was in a good mood, I didn't intend to expose it.
You can be happy for a while, but when you stay at home with your child, you will probably be in a bad mood again.
Thinking of this, I can't help but sigh.
It is really frustrating that she will dislike you if you treat her roughly, and will not be moved by you if you treat her gently.
Seeing him lowering his head in thought, Meng Ruoxi lowered her eyes with annoyance in her eyes.
You said you wanted to leave but you didn't. You just stood there in a daze. It's really annoying.
Shi Yanjin raised his head, a smile on his lips, and said deliberately, "I'm leaving."
"Hey." Meng Ruoxi responded.
After pausing for a moment, Shi Yanjin did not leave, his lips pressed into a straight line.
Looking at the woman in front of him who was ignorant of romance and indifferent, he felt suffocated.
We can’t even get up and kiss each other, and we can’t see each other for hours.
Meng Ruoxi looked at him puzzledly, asking with her eyes why he wasn't leaving yet.
She could only practice martial arts after he left, and she had no time to waste with him.
