The old woman next to her grabbed her ears and scolded her more harshly than anyone else.
"You are such a traitor, you stole money to take the college entrance exam. Are you trying to drive me to death? If the top beam is not straight, the bottom beam will be crooked. It's useless for you to pass the exam. Your parents are in jail. How can the country let you go to college?
Don't waste my money and come back with me quickly. I have found a good marriage for you. He's a butcher and he said he would give a dowry of 200 yuan. You should be very happy.
If it weren't for your good looks, you wouldn't have gotten this job. Why are you so ungrateful? What's the point of studying? You have to get married when you graduate. You're going through so much trouble. You might as well get out of here early.
When you read it out, you will be old, which man will want you? Just listen to my advice, I am your grandmother, will I harm you? "
Ren Lian shook off his hand and said, "You old man, you cheated me of all my savings. If you don't harm me, who will? That man is in his thirties or forties, he can be my father.
You want me to marry him, you are forcing me to die, why don't you marry yourself? Give him a boy when the old clam gives birth to a pearl?
You speak better than you sing. You are just greedy for money. I want to study. Get out of here."
She pushed Mrs. Ren away, but Mrs. Ren was no pushover either. She sat down on the ground, crying and shouting, "Everyone, come and see, this is so unjust. The granddaughter hit her grandmother, her parents committed a crime, and I, an old man, am supporting her and her sister!
The family is already struggling to make ends meet, but she even stole the last bit of money in the house, saying she was going to take the college entrance examination. How can an old woman like me survive?
Please judge for yourself. Was it wrong of me not to let him take the exam? I never saw her reviewing before. Isn't this a waste of the family's money? Please persuade her to come back with me."
These people were not instigated by her words. Instead, they advised: "Big sister, just let her take the exam. She has been looking forward to the resumption of the college entrance examination for more than ten years. If she really gets admitted to university, won't your ancestors' graves be filled with joy?"
"If his parents got into trouble, it's because you didn't teach them well. Why do you deprive them of the right to take the exam?"
"Aunt, the college entrance examination is the only way out. We are poor and we can only rely on this. Let her take the exam. It won't cost much!"
When Mrs. Ren saw that things were not going as she expected, she patted her butt, stood up, and said to those people with spit flying, "You know nothing, she is not a good student, and I am the first one to disagree with her giving money to others.
You have a man to support you at home, so you can talk without any pain in your waist. "
Seeing that she was so fierce, everyone stopped trying to persuade her and just kept muttering to herself behind her back.
Ren Lian was not someone to be trifled with. She fought back: "The money was left to me by my mother. How much did you cheat me of, you old man? How dare you say that? If you keep talking nonsense, I will report you for trafficking women. The police are here!"
Old Mrs. Ren looked at the patrolling police officers, shrank her head in fear, and did not dare to confront her.
His old, turbid eyes looked as if he wanted to eat her up, "You'd better pass the exam, otherwise, I'll beat you to death when I get home. Getting married is the best destination for a woman.
Do you think you are still a young lady? Pah, you are nothing but a peasant. "
After saying this, she limped away with her crutches.
If Ren Lian hadn't been surrounded by so many people, she would have wanted to push her to death. She turned around and saw Xu Shiya in the crowd.
At that moment, as if she saw a savior, she pushed through the crowd and walked over. Xu Shiya didn't even glance at her. Just as she was about to send Song Chenxi into the examination room, she heard Ren Lian shouting, "Mom, I'm Xiaolian, have you forgotten? I went to the army to find you several times, why didn't you see me? I'm also your daughter, please don't chase me away."
She used to have a bulging wallet and was the boss at home. Now her wallet is empty and she can only do rough and tiring work in the brigade, and she still doesn't have enough to eat or wear warm clothes.
She missed the days in the Song family even more. Everything was the best. Why did Song Chenxi come back? Why didn't she die in the countryside?
It’s all her useless parents’ fault, otherwise, she would have continued to enjoy her life in the Song family.
While pretending to be pitiful, he did not forget to glare at Song Chenxi coldly, as if Song Chenxi was the one who had taken over the magpie's nest.
Song Chenxi was so angry that he laughed and pushed her away as if he saw something dirty.
The wealthy upbringing she had received over the past two years had made her features more delicate, and she had completely picked out the good qualities of Xu Shiya and Deputy Brigade Commander Song.
Ren Lian had a sallow complexion, dry hair, and mud between her fingers, but she didn't even bother to clean herself up.
The two of them standing together created a huge visual impact, and Ren Lian's eyes were as sharp as knives.
Xu Shiya stood in front of Song Chenxi, like an old hen protecting her calves, with a cold expression: "Ren Lian, how much suffering has my daughter endured for you? It's fine if you are not grateful, but you also take it for granted.
It's really like a broken head leads to a broken bottom. Your father is not a good person, and you are also a bad person. Stay away from my daughter."
Deputy Brigade Commander Song also stepped forward and asked, "Who dares to bully my daughter?"
The two of them were like mountains, firmly protecting Song Chenxi. Song Chenxi's eyes trembled, and countless warmth surged to every part of his body.
Mom and Dad still love her very much.
As for Ren Lian, she would have been out of the game long ago. If she had known how to keep her head down and insisted on staying in the Song family, her mother might have prepared a dowry for her, found a military officer for her, and married her off in a grand manner.
Who made her unable to see the situation clearly? In the final analysis, she thought too highly of herself.
Without the Song family, she would be nothing. That old woman was nice to her, wasn't it because she thought she had some money?
