Shen Rongrong's brain froze and she said "Ah" in a daze?
After a while, until he was pulled out of the dilapidated courtyard by his aunt, he looked at the tire tracks in the distance and asked foolishly.
"He... is Chen Yu?"
"Isn't it?" Aunt Wang muttered, "The last time I saw him was several years ago... But doesn't your grandmother always say that her grandson is tall? That tall guy, I think he looks quite like him! And he drives a military vehicle... No, he's not a liar, right? Don't you know him?"
Shen Rongrong didn't dare to answer, and just answered randomly: "I know him...I know him."
"That's right, I told you! Auntie has a good memory, there's no way she would make a mistake! Let's go! Auntie has cooked some meat porridge! Let's go to Auntie's house for dinner!"
Shen Rongrong was led away by Aunt Wang, and for some reason, she felt a little nervous.
When Wu Zheng said he was Chen Yu, she barely believed it.
But now he says he is.
Even though she knew she might be deceiving the neighbors and using her fiancé's reputation to find her a place to sleep, a little hope rose in her heart.
If only he were really Chen Yu...
After all, if he is, then I can have a clear conscience to give birth to children for him... and the debt of having children will be repaid.
She actually began to look forward to it silently.
That night, we had dinner at Aunt Wang's house. Rice was expensive in those days, not to mention that it had meat in it. It was only a few months after the Chinese New Year, and Aunt Wang's three little grandsons held their bowls and kept eating. She was sensible and didn't dare to eat too much. She just took a nap.
…
The next day, Aunt Wang contacted several women in the village who did not need to do farm work to come and help them clean up the house. Each person only needed one dollar, and no meals were provided.
In order to avoid having to stay at Aunt Wang's house at night, Shen Rongrong agreed.
However, not long after the group of people were at work, a woman outside suddenly shouted, "You ungrateful girl! We spent so much effort to raise you and arrange this marriage for you, but you messed it up! Get out here!"
Aunt Wang looked at a slightly plump woman carrying a cloth bag and a young girl standing at the door cursing loudly, and asked curiously.
"Who is it?"
"My adoptive mother~ and sister."
Because of that incident, Shen Rongrong now rushes out to greet Shen Yueying as if she had been injected with chicken blood.
"Mom, I'm coming!"
The main thing is a good attitude.
When her adoptive mother saw her rushing towards her with a smile and calling her "Mom", her face immediately turned pale and she stepped back cautiously! She pointed at her and scolded her through the big iron gate!
"How dare you laugh? Do you know what it means to repay a favor? He is a soldier and will let you live a good life in the future. What are you doing? You are just not satisfied!"
"Me? What's wrong?" Shen Rongrong tilted her head and smiled as she opened the door: "I'm at Chen's house, aren't I?"
"At the Chen family?" The foster mother clapped her hands loudly. "The Chen family sent a message early this morning! They want to cancel the engagement! They said you are not a faithful wife! You have a fiancé but you are still having an affair with another man! You have brought shame to our family!"
Aunt Wang was listening to these things at the back with her ears pricked up. When she heard that she was unfaithful to her husband, her expression changed.
The aunts around also began to discuss in low voices:
"No way? The granddaughter-in-law of the Chen family looks quite honest. I thought she had some brain problems before... She can't be an adulterer, right?"
"No one knows a daughter better than her mother. Even if you say that, it may not be true!"
"Wasn't there a man who drove out from here last night? Could it be him?"
"Oh, don't talk nonsense," Aunt Wang interrupted immediately, "That's Xiao Chen from their family! She even talked to me! She met her fiancé! What's wrong with that!"
"Xiao Chen? Isn't Xiao Chen in the army? How can he come back during this difficult time?"
"Yes, my son is in the army, and he only has a few days off a year. A few months ago, I went to the county town and ran into Lao Chen in a fashionable store. He said his son was going on a blind date, so he bought him some nice clothes... And now he's back in the blink of an eye? That's impossible, right?"
At this time, Shen Yueying was looking at a group of women behind her who were talking in a buzzing voice.
She had never lived in Xiushan Village in her previous life, but she knew that there were a few notorious gossipers living here. The men in the family were capable and took care of all the work, so they went to work wherever there was work, and a group of them would gossip all day long.
If they knew about these things, the whole village would probably know about it the next day.
"Sister." Shen Yueying immediately held Shen Rongrong's hand: "Don't make a fuss. This was originally my good marriage, I gave it to you, what else do you want? The Chen family is so well-off, if you miss it, you will never have this opportunity again!"
Shen Rongrong knew with her toes that the destruction of the house was closely related to Shen Yueying. If she could be kind, jewels would fall from the sky.
"Oh, we are all family, let's talk it out nicely." Aunt Wang came up to him tremblingly and said a few words of advice: "You are the same, kid, why are you so ignorant? It would be great to marry an officer, others would beg for it! Just listen to your parents and live a good life!"
Then he winked and hinted that there was a large group of people behind them and they should not make things too awkward.
Shen Rongrong's eyes gradually turned red: "Auntie~you don't know...this marriage~is actually because..."
Shen Rongrong didn't know that today's incident was actually because Chen Yu found out from somewhere that Shen Yueying was a woman with two men, so he asked his sister to come home to discuss breaking off the engagement.
The younger sister of the Chen family is not very old, but she is a little mad dog. She cursed until half of the village knew that the Shen family had married a daughter to two men, and she even demanded the return of the betrothal gift.
The Shen family was afraid that their daughter's reputation would be damaged and would affect her status in the Gu family after marriage. Since this was because the little bitch Shen Rongrong was not dead, but had lived in the Chen family for so long and pretended to be Shen Yueying, they came to accuse her early in the morning after discussion, wanting Shen Rongrong to bear the blame for "messing around with men".
People are talking about it, and the news will be released. Whoever talks more will be the one who did it.
Shen Rongrong also relies on her big mouth. Just like she said, she can take a beating and won't take the initiative to cause trouble. She will endure the beating and make the Shen family's viciousness famous for miles!
Seeing that she was about to tell the story of the marriage exchange, Shen's mother, who usually beat her adopted daughter at home, couldn't help it and raised her hand to give Shen Rongrong a loud slap!
A red handprint suddenly appeared on Shen Rongrong's face!
She covered her face and looked at her adoptive mother in astonishment, tears welling up in her eyes, and she buried her head in Aunt Wang's arms!
Aunt Wang immediately frowned, hugged her and backed away, accusing her: "How could you hit a child in front of so many people?!"
The adoptive mother was quicker than them. She sat on the ground and started crying: "Oh my god, what a sin I have committed! I raised such an ungrateful person. We have given so much to her! But she is hooking up with other men outside, bringing shame to our family! I wish I could die!"
Before anyone present could say anything, a crisp cry suddenly came.
"Then you'll just die!"
At the intersection not far away, Chen Yan was wearing a bright red shirt and bell-bottom pants, with countless shiny clips on her head, holding a candy stick in her mouth and holding a gong in her hand. She was beating it loudly!
"Look! Look! Shen Yueying is engaged to our family! But she's having an affair with another man! She asked her silly sister to take her place! She refused to cancel the engagement and came to our house to make trouble!"
