Chapter 129 Stay in the city
This is not the end. When Duan Zheng's letter was sent to Shen's parents, the two people who read the letter picked up the insoles and hit Shen Shilei on the buttocks.
What kind of person is this? His eyes are so bad, so just forget about it.
Chen Shilei cried out in pain, but the house was not big enough and there was nowhere to hide. Her father was guarding the door, so she couldn't get out. She was beaten again and her butt was swollen again.
Chen Shilei had been home for more than half a month, and she had been lying in bed for ten days. She didn't dare to act rashly in the remaining days. If she asked for a dowry, she could only stay at home and work as a nanny every day.
In order to prevent her from running back to the countryside, her two younger brothers had to take turns supervising her. Shen Shilei felt really wronged.
In the evening, Shen's parents came home from get off work. Seeing their daughter looking aggrieved, they couldn't help but have a headache. Why didn't they realize before that their daughter's emotional intelligence and IQ were not equal at all? They didn't have to worry about her studies, but why was she so mean in dealing with people?
There was no way that Shen's parents would agree to prepare a dowry for Shen Shilei. It wasn't that they didn't love their daughter, but they felt that their daughter had poor taste. It was obvious at first glance that the country boy had no good intentions.
Let’s not talk about anything else. You are a girl who has not yet married and you are just dating someone. Why should the whole family be so nice to you, go along with you in everything and treat you like a princess?
What country are you from? You are nothing!
At first, you wanted to get married secretly, without even a dowry. What did the other person like about you that made him treat you so well? You were not afraid of any trap and came back happily to ask for a dowry.
If possible, Shen's parents really want to shake the water out of their daughter's brain.
It was impossible to agree to it, but if they forced it, Shen Shilei might lose her temper. After the couple discussed it, they decided to use other methods to make their daughter change her mind.
Naturally, Shen's mother couldn't tell Shen Shilei that Jin Tongji called her, but turned around and talked about going out to play.
Shen Shilei's eyes lit up, and Shen's mother glanced at her daughter: "When the time comes, you should dress up well for me. Don't dress so rustically. People who don't know will think I'm abusing you."
Chen Shilei recalled the day she came back and she was throwing a tantrum in the corridor demanding dowry money, and she also listened to Jiang Panyu's bad advice and dressed like a beggar on purpose.
She didn't feel anything at the time, but looking back now it's all just negative stuff, and she is too embarrassed to face the looks of her neighbors.
Then, in the following work, Shen Shilei dressed up beautifully and often went out to play with her parents.
From time to time, she met all kinds of gay men. Even though Chen Shilei was a little slow at first, she eventually realized that her parents were taking her on a blind date.
But she wants to go back to her hometown. Even if she falls in love with the guy after the blind date, that guy won’t move to the countryside with her. She can’t go back to the city either, as her household registration is still in the countryside.
Mother Shen said, "You are not ashamed when you should be ashamed, and you are not smart when you should be smart. Don't worry about it. See which one of these people you like and get along well with them. Who said you can't go back to the city?
If we don't bring you back to the city, you'll probably have to put yourself on the scale and sell yourself by the pound."
This sentence instantly made Shen Shilei feel like she was in heaven. She grabbed Shen's mother's arm and shook it wildly: "Mom, are you serious? I want to go back to the city. How come I don't know how you did it."
Mother Shen was shaken all over, and she didn't hesitate to slap her daughter on the shoulder: "What are you yelling about? Are you afraid that others don't know? Shut up, and you will know when you should know. Now that I'm asking you to go on a blind date, you should do it well and don't think about anything else."
Shen Shilei immediately laughed foolishly, nodded repeatedly, and supported Shen's mother as carefully as she supported the empress dowager.
This time, there was no need for Shen's parents to say anything more. Shen Shilei no longer mentioned the dowry, and even stopped mentioning Jin Tongji.
Shen Shilei didn't know that the Jin family was plotting against her, so the image of Jin Tongji in her heart was still very good. Shen Shilei still had feelings for Jin Tongji, but how could feelings be compared to returning to the city!
Shen's parents did plan to bring their daughter back to the city, because Shen Shilei was the eldest in the family, with two younger brothers. They sent her to the countryside because of the quota, and they let her go because there was no way to keep her in the city.
Now, Chen Shilei's second brother has also graduated from school. He is smart and has started dating a girl in his class at school without his parents having to worry about him.
They got married right after graduation. The girl's family was quite capable and they spared no effort to help their daughter and son-in-law stay in the city.
The second son in the family stayed in the city with the help of his father-in-law's family, so the son had no confidence in front of his wife. After getting married, the second son moved in with his wife to his father-in-law's house, because his father-in-law's house was spacious enough to accommodate their family, and it was also close to their workplace, making it more comfortable to commute to get off work.
Shen's father and mother were conflicted, always feeling that their son had become a son-in-law who married into the family. However, they couldn't get their son back because they had no way to keep him in the city.
The youngest son is still young and in school, so there is no rush and it can be delayed for another two years. But if Shen Shilei doesn't bring her back to the city, this daughter will really be lost.
But it was not easy to keep their daughter. Fortunately, they had been saving their salaries over the past few years and had some left after marrying her.
Shen's father and mother borrowed money from relatives and friends and collected a full 1,000 yuan. With the help of the second son and his wife, they got Shen Shilei a temporary job at a scrap collection station.
The money is not spent in vain. As long as Shen Shilei works for more than five months, she can be converted to a regular employee.
Shen Shilei held her breath until she got the employment notice, grain and oil relations, and household registration. She didn't have to go back to her hometown to transfer them back, as Shen Laoer's father-in-law asked someone to get it done for her.
Shen Shilei cheered loudly when she received the notice, and she was as excited as a bird in March.
Shen's parents were worried that their daughter would go back to the countryside to handle these things. What if she was deceived by Jin Tongji and suddenly didn't want to come back?
For the safety of their daughter, the couple brought generous gifts to visit their in-laws and asked for help.
Shen Laoer's father-in-law helped so that his daughter could live a decent life in the Shen family in the future.
After this incident, even if her daughter has some shortcomings in her words and deeds when she is in the Shen family, she cannot be too harsh on her. After all, the Shen family owes them a favor.
Parents who love their children will plan for them in the long run, and this is no exception.
Although Chen Shilei looked silly, she did not really understand nothing. She sincerely apologized to her parents and thanked them, as her parents had given a lot for her.
Mother Shen looked impatient: “It’s good to know, go to work and work hard. If you dare to be lazy and lose this job, your father will peel off your skin.”
Shen Shilei couldn't help but think of her butt that had been swollen and painful for ten days, and shuddered: "I know."
Then, Shen's mother seemed to remember something and asked her, "By the way, you have been on so many blind dates before, who did you like and who did you have a better impression of?"
Shen Shilei pouted a little: "I don't want to date yet, I just want to work hard now."
Well, this is because she hasn't forgotten the young man in the countryside. Fortunately, she has a job now, and her daughter doesn't have to go to the countryside. As time goes by, she will be able to forget about him. Shen's parents didn't force Shen Shilei. After a long time, she will naturally figure it out.
