Chapter 257 I killed you, Su Mei!

Su Mei knew Liang Laoyan, a famous bachelor in the neighboring village.

Why is he famous? This man is 45 years old and has lost three wives, each of whom committed suicide.

Outsiders say that this man is unlucky with wives, but that's bullshit. This man is a domestic violence maniac. His several wives couldn't make ends meet and chose to commit suicide when they had no other options.

It turns out that Yang Suhua's family was planning to marry her to this old man just for a 300 yuan betrothal gift?

A betrothal gift of 300 yuan was indeed a considerable sum of money in the countryside at that time. Liang Layan was said to be just a farmer, so I wonder how he could have so much money.

Of course, what surprised Su Mei the most was the reason why Yang Suhua broke her leg.

Su Mei actually guessed that Yang Suhua fell on purpose, but she quickly denied that guess because she felt that no matter how cruel Yang Suhua was, she would not break her own leg.

It must be so painful if it's all broken.

Yang Suhua was really cruel to herself. Her family members actually dared to provoke such a cruel person without knowing the consequences. If she gets angry enough one day, this kind of person will quietly wipe out the whole family.

Su Mei suddenly understood why she felt frightened when she saw Yang Suhua's eyes, because her eyes showed a look of indifference to everything.

There wasn't even a hint of human emotion in those gray pupils.

This result shocked Su Mei very much. She came here to talk to Yang Suhua, but now she didn't have the courage to go out.

Su Mei felt that people who didn't even care about their own lives were very dangerous.

She thought about it for a moment, did not show up, turned around quietly, changed the route, and walked towards her home.

After Su Mei turned around and left, Yang Suhua suddenly glanced coldly at the place where Su Mei had just stood.

Su Mei didn't know that she had been discovered. When she was assigned to go up the mountain to chop firewood the next day, she pretended to want to be intimate with Yang Suhua.

At the noon break, Su Mei called Yang Suhua and said straight to the point:

"Sister Suhua, come out with me at noon? Let's talk about your marriage with my brother?"

When she said this, Su Mei was already prepared to be rejected. She thought that if Yang Suhua refused, she would just tell her that she knew Yang Suhua broke her leg on purpose.

To Su Mei's surprise, Yang Suhua actually agreed: "Okay! Come with me."

As she spoke, Yang Suhua took Su Mei to a long river behind the mountain.

The river dries up in winter, and pebbles are exposed everywhere on the river surface.

Although the river is dry, the water is still very turbulent where there is water, and the cold pool in the middle of the river is deep and bottomless.

Yang Suhua brought Su Mei to such a place. She sat down on the largest stone in the river, then turned around and looked at Su Mei with raised eyebrows:

"Go ahead! What do you want to talk about?"

"I... don't want you to marry my fifth brother. Marriage is a free and beautiful thing and should not be obtained by any means. I'm sorry, I heard your conversation with your aunt yesterday." Since they had already made an appointment, Su Mei did not beat around the bush and directly stated her purpose.

Yang Suhua didn't seem surprised at all. She even smiled, which was rare for her. "So it turned out that the person who was hiding and eavesdropping yesterday was really you?"

"It was me." Su Mei did not deny it. "I was quite surprised. I never thought that you would break your own leg just to plot against my brother. How could you be so cruel to yourself?"

"How can I not be a little ruthless?" Yang Suhua asked in a self-deprecating way. She suddenly sighed, "Huh, if I hadn't broken my leg that day, then the next day I would have been carried to the next village by a horse and become a concubine for an old bachelor.

You also heard yesterday that the old bachelor was Liang Laoyan, a famous person. I was beaten every day in Yang's house, and even after getting married, I still couldn't escape being beaten. How can this be possible?"

"So you are plotting against my fifth brother?" Su Mei said.

Yang Suhua shook her head when she heard this: "It wasn't originally your fifth brother's. The person the captain arranged to release water to the rice fields that day was not your fifth brother, but your fifth brother's childhood friend Bai Ergou.

In the end, your fifth brother went instead of Bai Ergou, so it wasn't me who was plotting against him, it was him who ran into the muzzle of the gun."

"Bai Ergou should be my uncle, so you were... planning to be my aunt?" Su Mei was stunned. She didn't expect the story to be so exciting.

"Yes." Yang Suhua looked at Su Mei as if it was a matter of course, and then said, "It was your fifth brother who messed up my plan, so shouldn't he be responsible for me?"

"But you fell on purpose. You had a calculating heart. You should bear the responsibility yourself." Su Mei did not let Yang Suhua get into trouble. She added, "Freedom of marriage is advocated now. If your parents force you to get married, you can go to the captain or the Women's Federation instead of trying to drag others into the water to save you."

"That's a very high-sounding statement." Yang Suhua laughed again, "Su Mei, don't forget how your marriage to Huo Jianguo came about. I did this because I was inspired by you. What right do you have to blame me?"

"My position is that I am Su Shengxue's sister. I came to you today to ask you to cancel the engagement on your own initiative so that you can save face.

If you insist on forcing marriage with your reputation, I will stand up and tell you what you have done. "Su Mei knew that this was the only way for Su Shengxue to get rid of this marriage, and she would not and could not make even the slightest compromise.

Feeling threatened, Yang Suhua's face suddenly turned gloomy. She stared at Su Mei blankly and asked:

"You really want to force me?"

"I'm not forcing you. I'm just discussing it with you in a nice way." Su Mei felt that she really wanted to force her, so she brought her fifth brother to cancel the engagement.

At this moment, Yang Suhua suddenly stood up and reached out to pull Su Mei.

She pulled Su Mei's hair and dragged her to the cold pond, saying coldly, "Su Mei, I killed you. You are the one who asked for death. You should have drowned in this cold pond long ago."

Because Yang Suhua stood up suddenly, Su Mei had no time to react. Her hair was grabbed and she could only shout into the air:

"Help, help, Fifth Brother, stop hiding, come out quickly, damn, it hurts, help, help, help!"
