Chapter 006 Negotiation, Falling Out
When they first heard Ye Qing say that he was going to the Revolutionary Committee, the Ye family members didn't take it seriously at all.
But when Mr. Ye took the inspection certificate and saw the diagnosis and the big red seal of the People's Hospital, he froze on the spot.
Seeing that Ye's father had a strange expression on his face, Ye's mother and several brothers and sisters also stretched their heads to look over, wanting to see what Ye Qing was up to.
After seeing the result, everyone in the room was speechless with shock.
However, Ye's father and mother couldn't believe it, and the other brothers and sisters had their own thoughts.
Fortunately, Ye Qing doesn’t care what these people are thinking at all.
She went to the hospital to get this medical certificate just to increase her bargaining chips.
She had originally planned to endure it for a few more days in the Ye family, but Ye's mother refused to let her go. In that case, she didn't need to endure it any longer and might as well just break off relations with her and try her best to gain the greatest benefit for herself.
"This is a medical report from the Department of Cardiology at the People's Hospital. The official seal on it cannot be faked. If you don't believe it, you can check it yourself."
"I thought I had done enough these years. I got up earlier than a chicken, ate less than a cat, and used the food and clothing that my family didn't want. Now I have to be squeezed dry of the last bit of surplus value and sent to the countryside to fend for myself."
"I have given so much, but in the end all I get is your accusations, saying that I am too delicate and can't stand hardship. It's really ridiculous!"
"Since my sincerity is not recognized by you, there is no need for me to be the good girl you call me anymore."
"We've already shown you the things, so let's just be frank."
"If you want me to go to the countryside in place of my elder brother and sister, then do as I say! You must prepare the things I want for me today or tomorrow, otherwise I might go to the Revolutionary Committee and hand in my medical examination report if I'm not happy!"
"Tell me, if the Revolutionary Committee decides that my health condition does not meet the conditions for going to the countryside to work as a sent-down youth, who will be chosen by our family to take the place of me?"
When Ye Qing said this, his eyes were fixed on his elder sister Ye Hong.
Ye Hong's heart sank, her face instantly tense and flustered. She subconsciously reached out and snatched the inspection certificate from Ye's father's hand, then tore the paper into pieces in a few mad moves.
"It's fake, it's all fake! This thing is useless! It must have been made by Ye Qing, that damn girl!"
In order to avoid going to the countryside, she even went so far as to tempt the short, ugly and lame son of the street office director. She had paid such a huge price, she absolutely could not give up!
What Ye Hong didn't expect was that just as she finished tearing the paper, Ye Qing took out an identical one from his pocket:
"Tear it up, besides the one I have, I have several more hidden somewhere else. If you have the guts, find all my backups."
Ye Qing looked at Ye Hong with a smile, but there was no warmth in his eyes.
Of course, she couldn't have hidden the backup somewhere else, but she had expected this situation to happen, so when she was in the hospital, she secretly gave the doctor a little favor and asked him to fill out an extra diagnosis report for her, using the excuse that she was afraid of losing the certificate and having difficulty in getting a replacement.
What matters at this moment is the mentality. The calmer and more composed she is, the more likely it is that the other party in the negotiation will be thrown into disarray.
Sure enough, seeing that Ye Qing was fearless, Ye Hong believed Ye Qing's words without a doubt.
She secretly hated him, but could only stare at Ye Qing with a gloomy and angry look.
At this moment, she wanted to tear Ye Qing apart!
Ye Qing was not afraid at all. She only asked Ye's father and mother:
"What do you say?"
The Ye couple was caught off guard by this sudden change.
They never imagined that their second daughter, whom they had neglected for so many years, actually had a congenital heart disease and that her condition had reached such a serious stage.
No matter how unlovable this second daughter is, she is still a member of the Ye family. Now she could be gone in an instant. How could the Ye couple not be shocked and feel guilty?
After the couple looked at each other, it was as if they had suddenly found the fatherly and motherly love that they had lost for many years. Their eyes began to reveal deep love and regret when they looked at their two daughters.
Unfortunately, this belated apology and love was already too late for the original person.
As for Ye Qing, she didn't believe it at all and couldn't help sneering.
In fact, the red eyes of this negligent couple were like crocodile tears, which seemed so hypocritical and disgusting to Ye Qing.
"Stop pretending to be so hypocritical. Who do you hate? If you really wanted to love your child, what would you have done? People like you are not worthy of being Ye Qing's parents!"
Ye Qing didn't want to cooperate with the parents in their acting at all, and his words were as sharp and direct as a knife.
Before Ye's father and mother could react, Ye Zhigao became unhappy. He immediately put on a stern face and began to scold and lecture:
"Ye Qing, how do you talk to your parents? Do you have any manners at all?"
Ye Qing really couldn't bear to see this big brother showing such a condescending attitude. After getting the advantage, you should just be a quail quietly. Why do you have to come out to show your presence? Isn't this just asking for trouble?
"Education? How can I compare with you, big brother? No one taught me since I was a child!"
"You have been the most favored child in the family since you were born. You have exclusive food, clothing and daily necessities. Your mother has prepared everything for you. You are the apple of your parents' eyes. What am I? I am not even as good as the nanny in this family."
"So you, a vested interest holder, have no right to point fingers and make irresponsible comments in front of me!"
"If you are really that tough, you can give up your job and sign up to go to the countryside. Then the rest of us brothers and sisters won't have to fight for you and will respect you as a man!"
"But the question is, do you dare?"
Ye Zhigao was choked by Ye Qing's words, and his face instantly turned red with anger.
But Ye Qing's words really stopped him.
He really didn't dare to go to the countryside to join the production team. Two years ago, some educated youth went to the countryside in Yantang Old Street. As a result, when they came back to visit their families, they were almost skinny. When they talked about life in the countryside, they cried and said it was miserable.
Precisely because he knew that life in the countryside was not easy, Ye Zhigao didn't dare to say a word after being scolded by Ye Qing, for fear that Ye Qing would continue to hold him back.
Seeing that Ye Zhigao frightened so quickly, Ye Qing sneered disdainfully.
By this time, the Ye couple had vaguely realized that their second daughter had left them, but they still refused to give up and wanted to play the emotional card to win her back.
"Ah Qing, you misunderstood, your mother and I are not——"
Before he could finish his words, Ye Qing interrupted him impatiently:
"Don't think that a few drops of cat urine can soften my heart, and don't even imagine that I can still be a loving family with you. I'm not a three-year-old child anymore. I can't be fooled that easily! If you want me to go to the countryside, you have to pay. Give me a definite answer whether it's okay or not!"
Having their little thoughts exposed by Ye Qing on the spot, the sad expressions that the Ye couple had been preparing for suddenly disappeared, and shame and disgust unconsciously flashed in their eyes.
Over the years, the couple has been accustomed to bossing Ye Qingyi around, and now they still haven't changed their mindset. They always feel that as long as they treat their second daughter with a gentler attitude and say a few soft words, they will be able to control her again.
But they never expected that their honest and dull second daughter was no longer around.
The Ye·Niuhulu·Qing who was standing in front of them at this moment had already changed his heart.
Ye Qing, who came from the end of the world and had long been accustomed to all kinds of life and had seen through human nature, did not fall for their tricks at all.
The twins from the Ye family were already dumbfounded.
They really didn't expect that the second sister, who was usually so incompetent that she couldn't even fart, would become so scary now. Not only was she sharp-tongued, but her eyes and aura were also so terrifying that just looking at her made them scared.
Only Ye Hong was extremely anxious.
She knew very well that although the policy of going to the countryside and mountains required each family to have at least one child, it also had requirements for the candidates.
In addition to age, there are also relevant regulations on the physical health of educated youth. People like Ye Qing who have congenital diseases do not meet the policy requirements.
If Ye Qing really handed in this verification certificate, then Ye Qing's name would definitely be erased from the Revolutionary Committee.
Although the Revolutionary Committee always kept its word, they were unwilling to be involved in murder cases. If the illness of the educated youth sent to the countryside was so serious that they might die on the train, they would definitely avoid this trouble in advance.
Otherwise, if the higher-ups hold them accountable, the people responsible for arranging the trip to the countryside will most likely be held responsible.
But if Ye Qing cannot go to the countryside, their family will certainly be visited by the Revolutionary Committee. At that time, the choice of the person to go to the countryside will have to fall on her.
"Dad, I heard from Jiadong that his father and Deputy Director Yang of your silk reeling factory seem to be classmates..."
Ye Hong eagerly revealed the biggest trump card she had.
She had originally kept this a secret, planning to use it as a bargaining chip to gain greater benefits from her parents' family after she got married.
But now she was forced into a desperate situation by Ye Qing, and in order to save herself, she had to take out this trump card.
Ye Hong's words may sound incoherent, but they are definitely not aimless when spoken in this context.
Ye's father is a technician in the silk reeling factory workshop. He became the leader of the technical team ten years ago, but there has been no sign of promotion since then.
All Ye's father wanted was to become a director and join the leadership team of the factory. This had almost become his obsession. However, no one in either the Ye family or Ye's mother's family could help him. Ye's father also had no connections in this regard, so he could only work hard in the technical team of the workshop.
Now that Ye Hong said this, it was like scratching his itch, and he had no choice but to take it seriously.
Because the Hu Jiadong mentioned by Ye Hong was the person she had been talking to recently. Hu Jiadong's father was the director of the street office of Yantang Old Street.
If what Ye Hong said about Hu Jiadong's father and Deputy Director Yang of the silk reeling factory being classmates was true, then as long as Ye Hong married into the Hu family, she would be able to use her in-laws' connections to establish a relationship with the deputy director of the silk reeling factory.
By that time, with Deputy Director Yang backing him up, wouldn't it be easy for him to get promoted to director?
Father Ye couldn't control his excitement and joy, and the look in his eyes when he looked at his eldest daughter immediately became different.
This eldest daughter is smart and filial, it turns out that his efforts in raising her were not in vain!
Father Ye nodded reassuringly at Ye Hong, but when he looked at Ye Qing again, there was no warmth in his eyes anymore.
Obviously, he had seen it.
The second daughter refused to listen and was determined to break up with them.
Since there is no possibility of repair or redemption, Ye's father does not intend to waste his feelings any longer. This sickly person will not live long anyway, and may not even last a month in the countryside.
He doesn't care where his daughter, who is of no use to him, dies!
After weighing the pros and cons, Father Ye made a quick decision. He looked at Ye Qing intently:
"Two days is too short to get all the things you want. When you go to the countryside, I will take you to the train station and give you everything you want!"
Ye Qing knew it in his heart.
When Ye's father sent her to the train station, it was not to show her his little fatherly love, but because he was afraid that she would regret taking the things, so he had to see her get on the train with his own eyes.
She sneered in her heart but nodded calmly.
She was not afraid that Ye's father would go back on his word and not give her the things he promised. She didn't mind running back from the train station and making the whole Yantang Old Street know about this little affair of the Ye family!
Anyway, she had the hospital's diagnosis report as a talisman, so she was not afraid of being investigated by the Revolutionary Committee.
If the Ye family is not afraid of exposing their shame, they can give it a try!
