The weekend soon arrived, and Zhu Youliang and Liang Yuan were both resting. Liang Yuan had returned to the countryside that morning, but Zhu Youliang didn't go with her, instead visiting a nearby textile factory. After asking around, he discovered that many people knew Zhu Youxian and Wang Zhao. Zhu Youxian was fine, but Wang Zhao was well-known. It turned out that Wang Zhao often visited the textile factory to visit Zhu Youxian, and thus had befriended many of the female workers, with whom he had flirted. Once he learned Wang Zhao's address, he went around asking around. It would have been fine if he hadn't asked, but when he did, he was furious. It turned out that Wang Zhao had gotten a classmate pregnant while still in school, then aborted the child and was expelled. His family was trying to find him a job, but he'd used the money to start a business, only to be scammed and his family abandoned him. He wasn't home now, claiming to have gotten some money from his girlfriend and gone to Shenzhen with a friend, allegedly to wholesale clothing. Whose money was it? It was obvious. Thinking of this, he didn't ask any more questions, took a bus to the county supermarket, bought a bicycle and went home.
The textile factory had been closed for the past two days, and Zhu Youxian usually stayed in the dormitory. Yesterday, she returned only after Old Zhu personally picked her up on his bicycle. She figured Wang Zhao had gone to Shenzhen, and even if her family knew, it wouldn't matter; they weren't together anymore. Sure enough, when she returned, she was scolded. Huang Mei wanted to grab her ears and scold her. She felt wronged, but she didn't dare to retort.
I was sleeping in at home when I heard Liang Yuan was back. I got up immediately and ran to the yard. "Didn't I tell you not to tell your parents? Why are you letting them worry about it?"
Huang Mei was washing clothes in the yard. Upon hearing this, she shouted at her, "Who did you talk to? You're so disrespectful! If your sixth brother and his wife hadn't told us, we would still be in the dark."
"Who I want to be with is my own business. It's none of their business. You're a college student, but you don't keep your word." Zhu Youxian said angrily.
Liang Yuan said, "I never told your sixth brother not to tell our parents. We were just doing our duty. To be honest, I really don't care about you."
"Who cares about you caring about me? Why are you telling tales behind my back? I told you not to tell my parents, but you insisted on telling them and thought it was for my own good. Do I need you to do this for my own good? You are shameless." Zhu Youxian said without thinking.
Liang Yuan put the thing in his hand on the ground and said in a deep voice: "Say it again? I'll slap you in the face."
"Just say it, no..."
"Yuanyuan, Youxian..." Huang Mei knew Liang Yuan's temper. She didn't care that her hands were covered with foam. She went over and covered Zhu Youxian's mouth and slapped her on the mouth. "You are asking for death. Your sixth sister-in-law is doing this for your own good. She doesn't want to see you jump into the fire pit. If it weren't for the two of us old people begging your brother and sister-in-law to take care of you, who would be willing to take care of you? Look at your eldest sister-in-law and your third sister-in-law. If you don't want us to take care of you, don't beg for money from the family when you go to the textile factory. If it weren't for your sixth brother giving you money, you would have been able to get into the textile factory. Now you have turned your back on us. Look at you. You have no job. You are a lazy girl. Who would want you? You didn't listen to my advice and insisted on getting involved with Wang Zhao. Don't come back crying and scold me in the future."
"Mom, you hit me just for a stranger. I won't live anymore." Zhu Youxian said and rushed out.
Huang Mei wanted Liang Yuan to chase him, but Liang Yuan calmly went back into the house, so Huang Mei had no choice but to follow him out. Many people saw him along the way. Fortunately, she had enough stamina, and she caught Zhu Youxian before he even left the village.
"You girl, do you want the whole village to laugh at your family? Do you still want to get married in the future?" Huang Mei said while patting Zhu Youxian on the back.
Zhu Youxian said angrily, "It's a joke, but if you don't let me marry Wang Zhao, I won't marry anyone else. I'll stay at home like an old maid and let the whole village laugh at you."
"How did you become like this, kid? You don't understand anything I say, good or bad. What's so good about Wang Zhao? He's just a scoundrel, but you're so obsessed with him. With your sixth brother and sister-in-law both being university graduates, it's easy for you to find someone in the city, but why are you so stubborn? This time, you've completely offended your sister-in-law. It will be difficult for you to rely on their influence in the future. Listen to your mother and go back and apologize to your sister-in-law."
"I don't care. Mom, I told you, Wang Zhao will definitely make money this time. He promised me. With money, who would want to rely on them?" Zhu Youxian said confidently.
"There is a fairy. Even if he can make money, you can't follow him. He is not a good person." Huang Mei said earnestly.
"Mom, the book says that it is a great thing to admit one's mistakes and then improve oneself. Why don't you want to believe Wang Zhao this time? If you don't believe him, you can at least believe me this time. I'm old enough and I can see with my own eyes. I know what kind of person he is. I want to live a good life in the future. Don't worry about it. If you keep worrying about it, I'll be angry with you. I won't apologize. I'll go back to the old house first and come over for dinner." After saying that, she walked towards the old house.
Huang Mei was afraid of gossip, so when she saw that she didn't run away, she didn't hold her anymore and turned back to wash clothes.
Zhu Youliang arrived home just before lunch. For some reason, Zhu Youxian felt guilty when she saw him.
"Mom, I'm not hungry. I'm very sleepy. I'll go back to sleep for a while."
"It's almost time for dinner, why are you sleeping? Youliang, go and persuade Yuanyuan. Youxian said the wrong thing and made her angry." Huang Mei came out of the kitchen and said to Zhu Youxian while pulling her.
Zhu Youliang glanced at Zhu Youxian and said, "Mom, it's okay. Yuanyuan is a kind-hearted person and won't take it to heart. It just so happens that Youxian is here too, and I have something to tell you."
Zhu Youxian suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart and rushed to say, "Sixth Brother, don't worry about my affairs. If it's related to me, you don't have to say anything."
