Director Zhao came in with two trembling old men. The two old men looked to be in their teens. They had done too much physical work, so their shoulders and backs were bent down and their bodies were hunched. Judging from their clothes and hands and feet, they were just ordinary farmers.
The slightly younger man standing next to them was also a middle-aged man, in his forties. He was extremely skinny, like a shriveled monkey, with skin sticking to his bones, making him look ugly. His hair was also sparse, and he limped when he walked, with a fierce look in his eyes.
"This is the person who collected the betrothal money from you." Jiang Xiaqi came out and pointed at Zhao Huimei next to her.
She was recuperating in the hospital for two days, but she was not too idle. She would learn about the general situation of the people in Yatou Village. Lu Yuanting knew that she liked Liang Qing, the educated youth, very much, so he also deliberately asked the people stationed in the village to pay attention to Liang Qing's general movements.
In the past few days, a group of people came to Yatou Village and found Director Zhao, shouting that they wanted to find the police and report a case, saying that their betrothal money was defrauded and their wife was gone. When asked, they found out that the case was related to Liang Qing.
Jiang Xia originally wanted to find an opportunity to let Liang Qing know about the situation today, with the public security comrades watching from the middle and telling those who came to the door specifically how to resolve the issue, so that they would have their grievances settled and their debts dealt with by the person they paid.
Before she could say anything, Zhao Huimei came to her door on her own initiative. It just happened, so she saved the trouble.
"Public Security Comrade, that's right, it's this person. She took three hundred and ninety yuan from us and said she would be our matchmaker and marry our daughter to us. Now it's been a few days and there's still no news. She must be a liar!!" The old lady spoke and looked at Zhao Huimei.
"Yes, either pay back the money or give it to your wife!" The old man next to him also spoke up.
Although we had never met because of the distance, I had heard the middleman roughly describe what Zhao Huimei looked like. The money had also been transferred to her, and it had a note with her name on it.
When the people in Yatou Village saw this situation, they were shocked. Isn't this just selling their daughter?
"I... I'm here to do some ideological work. I'm not a liar. Something's wrong with my daughter." Zhao Huimei panicked when she saw this situation. Since the person had come to her door, she definitely couldn't pay back the money.
As soon as she received the betrothal money, she spent it immediately on decorating a new house for her son. She had no money left and her family's assets were almost emptied. It was impossible for her to have any extra money to pay back.
"Mom?!" Liang Qing couldn't help but understand what was going on at this moment. She looked at the family of three who came to her house in surprise, and then looked at her mother. She didn't expect that what Jiang Xia said was not an exaggeration at all.
If it wasn't for Jiang Xia, she might have been fooled without knowing anything.
"You still know that I'm your mother? I tell you, you have to marry whether you want to or not. Your family has raised so many children like you and can't rely on you. Now I've found a relative for you, but you're still picky." Zhao Huimei snorted coldly and decided to just go for it since everything had been seen through.
No matter where we are, children have to listen to their parents.
When Liang Qing heard what Zhao Huimei said, her eyes turned red and she pursed her lips.
He looked at Jiang Xia subconsciously, as if he didn't know what to do. He was at a loss and could only regard Jiang Xia as his backbone.
"She may not be your mother." Jiang Xia stepped forward and patted Liang Qing's hand to comfort her.
