"Xin Xin, you're also a mother of a daughter. Do you want your daughter to live the same life you do?" Widow Huang pointed at the room where her daughter slept. "Being bullied by a gigolo who lives off you is a real talent!"
Xin Xin's eyes gradually became dull. Why did she feel that her stepmother's tone of mockery towards her seemed to be a bit of a disappointment? "If you have the ability, why do you still rely on men? Why don't you rely on yourself?"
Widow Huang: "When everyone can make money with their own ability, do you think I will still rely on men? You are the daughter of a factory director, and you fell in love with such a man, and he beat you up. I really don't understand.
If I were you, not only would I not leave my father, the factory director, I would also make him be suppressed by my father for the rest of his life. I would also find ways to inherit my father's factory, and I would not leave any of what I should have fought for to others.
Supporting a man is not a skill; supporting yourself is the safest thing to do. You still ask me what my purpose is. My purpose is to hope that my daughter will not have to live like me and not have to rely on others to make a living. "
Xin Xin's rusty brain seemed to start working. "You just said that you hope someone will help us female comrades in the future, help us deal with those who bully us, and hope to improve the atmosphere. Are you thinking about your daughter?"
Widow Huang pouted, "I'm different from you. You only care about your useless reputation. I don't care about that. I just want to live a good life for myself and my children, not be bullied, and live a good life. To achieve this goal, I will work hard no matter how painful it is."
Xin Xin couldn't stand hearing this. "You're talking nonsense. How could I not take care of my daughter? I even took her with me when I went back to my parents' home. I even considered that she would be beaten if I left her at her husband's house."
Widow Huang: "But you are so vicious to those women's directors who helped you. If they continue to work so hard, we female comrades may have a better life one day.
But what did you do? You wanted to kill that hope. You wanted your dad to suppress them all, to make them unable to do anything, and then you'd be satisfied, right? How many people's hopes are you going to kill just for that bullying, cowardly, freeloader in your family?
Think carefully about what you are going to do with that man in your family. If you really can't let go of that loser in your family, I will ask your father to send you back. As a stepmother, I hope you don't go back to your parents' home as often as possible."
Xin Xin was silent, her mind was a little confused. She just wanted these women's directors to help her teach her lover a lesson and tell him not to come home and beat people in the future. She just didn't want to destroy this family, so how could it be considered as killing hope?
Widow Huang saw that she was still in such a dead state, she didn't want to talk anymore. It seemed that relying on her to talk to her father on her own was hopeless, so she should think about how to get the old man to lift his control over the women's directors.
Widow Huang went upstairs and didn't want to see the dead girl again.
But when she came down to cook at dinner time, she saw the dead girl grabbing her hand and taking her aside.
"What are you doing?" Widow Huang became dissatisfied.
Xin Xin glanced furtively at her father sitting outside and whispered, "Auntie Huang!"
Widow Huang: "What's wrong?"
Xin Xin seemed to have made up her mind, "Please talk to my dad for me. I want to divorce him!"
Widow Huang quickly pulled her hand out of her arm and asked, "You figured it out in just one afternoon?"
Xin Xin: "Yes, you're right. He's a shameless loser who lives off his wife. Not only have I not enjoyed any good things from following him, but my dad has also done him a lot of favors. Why did he beat me up and even said that I'm useless because I only gave birth to a daughter."
Widow Huang: "No, I just said a few words and you figured it out?"
Xin Xin: "I've really thought it through. If I take my daughter and live with him again, I don't know when my daughter will be exchanged for the betrothal gift. I dare not gamble with their conscience. He dares to hit people. What else can't he do? Aunt Huang, please help me talk to the old man. I'm afraid he is too old-fashioned and won't agree to my request."
Widow Huang waved her hands: "Impossible, I can't help you. If you want to go by yourself, I won't help you."
Xin Xin didn't understand. "Why? Don't you really want me to not retaliate against those women's directors? If you speak well of me, not only will I not retaliate, I will even help them in the future."
Widow Huang suppressed her temper and patiently explained, "I'm not your biological mother. I can't possibly interfere in such an important matter in your life. If I don't say a word, I'll be in trouble.
I hope you don't cause trouble for them, but that doesn't mean I'm going to help you get a divorce. If I dare to ask about this kind of thing, your dad will kick me out, do you believe it? Besides, if you regret it later and bite me back, will I still be able to live as a human being? "
She ran away in a hurry, fearing that this brainless girl would harm her.
Chen Xiangbei had been enjoying a good life with Director Song in recent days, and he was in high spirits. However, he felt something was wrong when he heard that Qiao Yi was going on a blind date with the son of the director of the cannery.
"Director Song, please tell me who the director of the cannery is." Chen Xiangbei flattered his face and wanted to get to the bottom of it.
Director Song was eating in the cafeteria when he heard this brat asking about this matter again. He had asked himself this question no less than five times in the past three days.
The first few times he didn't bother to pay attention and just turned around and left, but this time... the brat grabbed his sleeve, as if he was afraid he would run away.
Director Song: "Why do you always ask about other people's affairs? What do they have to do with you?"
Chen Xiangbei said righteously, "I want to know the details of every worker in our factory. I can't let them be deceived."
Director Song: "But that man is from the cannery!"
Chen Xiangbei: "But he wants to attack the female comrades in our factory."
Director Song was puzzled: "Who is in our factory?"
Chen Xiangbei was too embarrassed to say anything, so he could only wave his hand and said, "I'll tell you after I find out everything. Anyway, I need to know if he is a good man and whether he can be a good husband for our comrade."
Director Song hesitated and said, "I haven't met him many times. It seems that the director and his wife are both workers. They have three sisters and one son. They're quite down-to-earth. Two of their sisters are married, and the third is engaged. Their family is... quite harmonious. If he were to be with one of our women, he'd be a good match."
Chen Xiangbei slammed the table angrily, "What good candidate? He's not good at all... Not good at all!"
Director Song also spoke up: "What's wrong with him? What's wrong with him? I heard his son is good-looking and capable at work. He's good in every way!"
Chen Xiangbei pouted: "Anyway, it sounds bad!"
