Hu Yuanyuan was still in shock from Li Xue'e's divorce: "Wow! Xue'e, you really got divorced? Did you go through the formalities? How could Yuan Dasheng and the others agree to this?"
"Keep your voice down." Li Xue'e stopped the two of them and went into Hu Yuanyuan's room.
Wei Chongjun lay down on Hu Yuanyuan's bed in a spread-eagle position.
Hu Yuanyuan grabbed Li Xue'e and asked her how she got divorced, which explains why Li Xue'e's second brother came to her house looking for her.
Li Xue'e told her about the divorce, and then asked curiously, "But we only went to complete the procedures at noon, how did my family find out? Did Yuan Dasheng tell my family so quickly?"
Hu Yuanyuan didn't know anything about the Li family's situation either, and said, "I don't know, but did you not tell your family about this? If your dad finds you, he'll beat you to death! You've got some nerve..."
Li Xue'e said, "I don't care, I'm leaving here tomorrow anyway."
Hu Yuanyuan asked her, "Where are you going? Are you going by yourself?"
Li Xue'e glanced at Yuan Mengge lying on the bed and said, "I'll go with Aping tomorrow."
Hu Yuanyuan looked at Yuan Mengge: "But isn't Aping going back to school soon? When will she be back after she went with you?"
Registration has already started these past two days, and classes will begin in three days.
Yuan Mengge, lying down, said, "It's okay, I can make it back in time."
Hu Yuanyuan looked at her, somewhat worried, and said, "Are you sure you can come back? Should we register first before you go?"
Li Xue'e said, "Aping is arguing so much with her family now, her parents definitely don't want her to go to school anymore."
Hu Yuanyuan's face showed a look of sudden realization: "Oh right... So what are you going to do, Aping?"
Yuan Mengge said, "I'll go back tonight and take care of this first. After I take Sister A'e to find a good place, I'll come back and go directly to the school to register."
Hu Yuanyuan looked at her and asked, "Do you... still have money to register?"
She knew that Yuan Mengge had borrowed two thousand yuan to help Li Xue'e pay back the bride price to the Yuan family, but she didn't know where a teenage girl from the countryside got so much money.
I'm afraid she'll use all the money to help Li Xue'e and won't have any left for herself to register.
Yuan Mengge waved her hand: "I have money, don't worry."
After having dinner at Hu Yuanyuan's house, Yuan Mengge rode her bicycle home by herself.
The Hu family was worried that it would be dangerous for a young girl like her to walk on the road in the dark, and they wanted Brother Hu to take her home.
However, Yuan Mengge insisted on being alone, so the Hu family had no choice but to let her leave on her own.
When Yuan Mengge returned, it wasn't completely dark yet.
When she returned to the Yuan family home, she saw several members of the Yuan family sitting in the living room. Her eldest sister, second sister, and brothers-in-law had all returned.
"Oh, so many people are here?" Yuan Mengge walked to the door and greeted the people in the room.
Everyone in the room turned to look at her.
Yuan Xiangxiang immediately stood up, pointed at her, and yelled, "Aping! Are you out of your mind? Who do you think you are to dare make your brother and sister-in-law divorce? You even want to establish your own household registration? I think you're dreaming! You haven't even grown your hair yet, and you dare to act lawlessly here?"
Yuan Mengge didn't even glance at her, but looked at Yuan Xiangyong and Yao Dongqing: "Have you thought it through? Do you want me to give you the household registration book, or do you want me to dig up your ancestral graves?"
"Aping—" Yuan Xiangxiang screamed angrily at her when she saw that she was being ignored.
Her husband was startled by her scream. He covered his face with his hand and said to her with some annoyance, "Can you please keep your voice down? Are you trying to make the whole village hear you scream like that?"
Yuan Xiangxiang turned to look at him and said, "Look at this, what kind of daughter would do such a thing? She's gone too far! Listen to what she's saying! Listen to her! Listen to her! Digging up ancestral graves? Who gave you the guts?! Yuan Pingping? Huh?"
Then he yelled at Yuan Mengge again.
Yuan Dasheng has calmed down now and is just sitting on the sidelines watching the show.
Yuan Xiangyong and Yao Dongqing both had gloomy faces and didn't even glance at Yuan Mengge.
Yuan Mengge looked at the two of them, and seeing that they didn't speak or look at her, she asked again, "Where's the household registration booklet?"
Yao Dongqing suddenly grabbed a cup from the coffee table next to her and threw it at her: "Get out! You don't have a household registration book! You think you can just walk away after eating my food, wearing my clothes, and growing up like this? What gives you the right?"
Yuan Mengge instinctively dodged the flying teacup and calmly looked at her, saying, "I've said it before, I'll take care of you in your old age the way you raised me. Now you want to leech off me, but I won't let you."
Yao Dongqing pointed at her and said, "Anyway, you can forget about getting your household registration book out of my hands. If you're so capable, go dig up my ancestral graves! Go! Go, go, go—go dig them up!"
"Bang!" Yuan Xiangyong slammed his hand on the table, turned around and glared at her: "What are you saying? Is that something you should be saying?"
This woman actually sent her daughter to play with my ancestor! Outrageous!
Yao Dongqing snorted coldly and said to him, "Hmph, then give her the household registration book! Just consider it as if you've raised her for nothing for over ten years!"
Yuan Xiangyong looked at Yuan Mengge with a gloomy gaze and said, "How could I possibly give you something as important as your household registration book? What if you lose it?"
Yuan Mengge said calmly, "What excuse are you making? Isn't it just that you don't want to give it to me?"
The second sister, who had been silent all along, spoke up and asked, "Aping, what's wrong with you? Why did you move your household registration out? Do you really want to sever ties with your family?"
Yuan Mengge looked at her: "Do I look like I'm joking?"
The second sister frowned, glanced at the others, and before she could speak, the eldest sister interrupted her.
"You're such an ingrate! What bad luck did our family have to produce such an ungrateful wretch like you? Are you possessed by a ghost? What kind of ghost is possessing you?" Yuan Xiangxiang stood up angrily and pointed at her again, cursing her once more.
Yuan Mengge then said, "Alright, if you don't agree, then I'll just dig up Grandpa's grave today."
Grandpa's grave is closer, so let's start there.
As she spoke, she turned and went to the kitchen to find a hoe.
Yuan Xiangxiang, Yuan Shasha, and their two brothers-in-law all stood up and walked to the door to see what she was doing.
"Dad! She's gone out with a hoe. Is she really going to dig up Grandpa?" Yuan Xiangxiang asked Yuan Xiangyong nervously as she watched Yuan Mengge carry the hoe out.
Hearing that she had actually picked up a hoe, Yuan Xiangyong couldn't sit still any longer and immediately stood up: "What?"
After saying that, he grabbed his flashlight and went out, then quickly followed in the direction Yuan Mengge was heading.
"She wouldn't dare! If she dares to touch a single piece of my dad's land, I'll beat her to death today! I'll clean house!"
Hearing this, Yuan Dasheng chimed in from behind, "But Dad, you can't hit her."
