Chapter 361 The Girl Who Gave Birth to a Child Out of Wedlock (3)
“Fifty thousand is not enough!” Mother Qian felt that her attitude was too tough, and she wanted to convince her mother with reason. She said in a slow voice, “Think about it, you are only a little over fourteen years old. If you don’t take more betrothal gifts now, what will you do if you go to Yin’s house and they bully you? And if you go to his house, you will definitely give birth to a child. Then can you continue to go back to school? If you can’t continue to study, and you have a child to raise, how can you live without money? Besides, your boyfriend is still young, and you can’t get a marriage certificate even if you are together. What will you do if he goes to college outside and meets another woman and changes his mind and wants to marry her, and doesn’t want you and the child anymore?”
“No, no, I won’t do such a thing…” Yin Wei defended himself, and then he fell silent again. He had harmed the innocent girl to this point, so what right did he have to say such things?
Shi Yi didn’t stop her, and just listened to her slowly. Qian's mother thought that she had persuaded her husband. After exchanging a glance with her husband, she increased her firepower and continued, "Shi Yi, look at yourself. You have such good conditions. You are good-looking and have good grades. If it weren't for this incident, you would have been admitted to the best high school here smoothly, and you would have been able to go to college in the future. Then you would not be worth the price you have now. Let's talk about the Yin family. Look at the two elders of the Yin family. Are they capable of handling things? Their son slept with the girl and got her pregnant, but they didn't care. Can you guarantee that in another seven or eight years, the Yin family's parents will not... Will you find a new partner for your boyfriend? If the new partner is better than you, what will you and the child do then?"
Seeing that Shi Yi's expression was somewhat relaxed, Qian's mother felt proud, "If that day really comes, it will be ok if Yin's parents kick you and the child out, but what if they want to destroy the body? They will call you crazy and put you in a pigpen or a horse stable, and then there will be an unknown fire, and you and the child will be gone. Don't think that mom is scaring you, such things have happened in the neighboring village."
Shi Yi just stared at her blankly. It turned out that they were not unaware of her future situation, but they preferred real and comfortable money, so they didn't care about her future.
Qian's mother stretched out her hand and waved it in front of her eyes, "Child, child, look, after all the things I analyzed for you, don't you think the bride price is too much?"
"Come to think of it, this 200,000 is not too much at all, and it's even too little." She glared at Yin Wei who was kneeling on the ground.
If his daughter really went to college and found a good job, she would earn much more money than now. However, now that the matter is done, there is nothing he can do.
Yin Wei did not notice Qian's mother's eyes at all, because he was still immersed in what Qian's mother said.
He even asked himself how much of what Qian's mother said would become a reality in the future.
His parents wanted to be strong but also wanted to save face, so Shi Yi, who was pregnant before marriage, would definitely not be well-received when she went to his house. However, Shi Yi was beautiful and had good grades, so there was a 90% chance that she would be able to get into a good university and have a brighter future.
He was only fifteen years old and had a child, but he still had to continue studying. He was the only son and lived in the countryside. If he did not study, he would not have a future. But he would go to college in the future. By then, he might not be able to guarantee that he would not meet a new girl he liked. Would he marry her or not?
He had a new person he liked. If he did not marry her home, he would definitely feel unhappy for the rest of his life. If he planned to marry her home, what would happen to Shi Yi and the child at home? If they were forced to leave, where could they, an orphan and a widow, go? If they didn't leave, how would he get along with the person he loved? His parents might really do something evil at that time.
Would they just ignore Shi Yi? Force Shi Yi to have an abortion? Shi Yi was so young, what if she died of two deaths? He would never be able to sleep peacefully in his life. More importantly, he really loved her and liked her so much. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come to her house in person.
"Will you give me this money when I get married?" Shi Yi's timid appearance made Qian's mother see the familiar girl again, and she said firmly: "Of course not. If I give it to you, you will go back to the Yin family."
She slowed down and said in a softer voice: "Silly child, the Yin family is waiting for you to do this."
"Then I know." Shi Yi began to retreat. Qian's mother just watched her retreat step by step back to her original position.
"What do you know?" she asked.
"You still want to sell your daughter." Shi Yi stood in front of the hall and said this sentence slowly.
"Stubborn." The stepfather suddenly went berserk and raised the whip to hit her. Yin Wei blocked it for Shi Yi without saying a word.
"Hiss..." It hurts so much. Yin Wei tried not to show his pain, but his suddenly twisted face revealed the true reaction of his body.
"This is just a commonplace for me." Shi Yi whispered in his ear.
Yin Wei hurriedly turned back to look at her, and tears condensed in his eyes. He didn't know whether the pain was caused by the whip or by her sudden words.
"If you don't listen, you can wait for me to beat you to death. You want to give her money without paying a penny, no way." The stepfather swung his whip again, breaking the dull air.
Yin Wei endured the pain and protected Shi Yi firmly in front of him, saying: "If you want to hit someone, hit me, she is pregnant now."
As he spoke, he cried softly. What's the use of him? No one can protect him.
"Believe it or not, I will sue you for abusing a minor right now." Shi Yi held Yin Wei's bleeding right hand, his eyes like a bloodthirsty lone wolf, "I am only a little over fourteen years old now. If you tell others about your bad intentions towards me, you will have to spend several years in prison."
"Do you think I'm afraid of you?" The stepfather's words were very tough, but his hand holding the whip was shaking slightly. He had a criminal record before and could never go to the police station.
"You are indeed not afraid of me, but I will not swallow my anger anymore." Shi Yi pulled Yin Wei out of the house.
"Stop! You stupid thing!" Qian's mother wanted to stop her, but her husband grabbed her hand in anger, so she had to shout loudly on the spot: "If you go with him now, it will be an unmatched affair, and you will be looked down upon. The Yin family will also bully you, so don't come back crying to find your mother when the time comes." Shi
Yi stopped at the door, her whole body bathed in the sun, but her long shadow was imprinted on the cement floor inside the house.
"I won't come back."
"The 50,000 yuan is the buyout fee for me to sever ties with you."
"From now on, we are even."
