Now that it was the slack season for farming, Shen Nan had nothing to do except picking up and dropping off the children from school. So, every day he would go to the doorstep of Old Qian's house and make trouble, causing the Qian family to not dare to go out all day, and they could only have some peace and quiet at night.
After several days of this, the Qian family was beginning to feel depressed. As gossip about the Qian family spread, the villagers were constantly talking about it. Even when Mrs. Qian went out at night and ran into villagers, she would be talked about and teased. She had already had several fights with the neighbors because of this.
The three older men of the Qian family, who used to love wandering around, have been afraid to go out lately. Let's start with Old Man Qian. Who wouldn't envy him for raising two wonderful children and providing him with all the good food and drink? But now? Even the old friends he used to hang out with have ignored him.
Besides, Qian Jincai is still in his prime, and he is also lustful. Although his wife Yu Min has been a widow for many years, Qian Jincai has never been idle. He dared not go out recently, and he was almost suffocated.
As for Qian Longbin, he also had a few bad friends who liked to hang out in groups. His grandmother was willing to give him money to spend, so he would go out and act like a rich man, rushing to pay for food, drinks and entertainment.
So many things have happened at home recently, his grandmother has been crying poor and is reluctant to give him pocket money. His friends no longer come to visit him.
Qian Meijuan was even more miserable. She had done nothing wrong, but she was discriminated against and isolated by her teachers and classmates. On her way to and from school, she had to worry about being blocked by her classmates and being insulted and beaten.
At home, she is the punching bag for the whole family. She is responsible for washing and cooking, and is often scolded. She is now not only seriously tired of studying, but also resists going home.
She really hoped her mother would come back and take her away. But it was too late to say anything now. She had a feeling that her mother would never come back.
With Shen Nan making such a fuss, the Qian family couldn't live a normal life. They had no choice but to ask the village chief Luo Changzheng for help to solve the problem. But what did Luo Changzheng say? She is crazy, don't provoke her, just let her vent her anger!
What else did I say? I can't do anything about this. Talking to her won't make sense, and she didn't hurt anyone. And even if she did, she has a mental illness certificate, so the police won't be able to arrest her.
Old Mrs. Qian feared nothing except her crazy daughter-in-law. The village chief's words made sense, but they also sounded like an attempt to shirk responsibility.
"You are the village chief. If you don't take care of her, who will? Is there no one who can deal with her?" Old Mrs. Qian said anxiously.
Luo Changzheng responded: "According to the current situation, it is indeed the case!"
"I think she is just pretending to be crazy now. Her illness has been cured long ago, but no one cares about her pretending to be crazy? Then I will pretend to be crazy too tomorrow and take a kitchen knife to chop people on the street..." said Old Mrs. Qian angrily.
Luo Changzheng had been troubled by the Qian family's recent affairs, feeling ashamed to attend township meetings. He truly hoped this unreasonable family would move out of the village.
Seeing Mrs. Qian talking about old age, she responded, "Old sister-in-law, your third daughter-in-law's madness was diagnosed by the hospital, and they have a certificate. Do you have one? It's not possible for anyone to be crazy just by saying they are crazy!"
Okay, I have something else to do, you should leave now, let's go home and discuss how to solve this problem. Oh, by the way, tell me the truth, do you know how Jingui's son got lost?
If he was really taken away by the second brother's family, you should go to the prison and ask about it as soon as possible. It will also be a good deed for you."
Luo Changzheng's words made the Qian family very angry. What a shitty village chief, he is just like those who gossip about their wives, bah!
Old Mrs. Qian cursed Luo Changzheng's ancestors for eighteen generations in her heart and left angrily.
Over the past few days, the Qian family has been calling Qian Jinling repeatedly to complain and seek help. But distant water can't quench immediate thirst. What can Qian Jinling do? She can only try her best to comfort her family and remit several thousand yuan, which finally gives them two days of peace.
After Old Lady Qian returned from a disappointing visit to the village chief, she grew increasingly angry. She discussed this with her family, saying, "No, we can't stay in this poor place any longer. How about we go and seek refuge with Jin Ling?"
The rest of the Qian family had no objection to Mrs. Qian's proposal and agreed with both hands. They had long since given up wanting to stay in this shabby place. Moreover, Qian Jincai and Qian Longbin, having seen the prosperity of the city, were even less willing to stay in the village.
They didn't even consider whether Qian Jinling agreed. After making up their minds, they decided to pack a few clothes and take their valuables and leave in two days.
Qian Meijuan was still a child, insecure, and hesitant. She still had to go to school. If she left with her family, would she still be able to go to school?
She tremblingly asked Old Lady Qian, "Grandma, can I go there too? If I go there, can my aunt find a school for me?"
The Qian family didn't take the matter seriously at all. This time, Mrs. Qian, contrary to her usual behavior, didn't scold her. Instead, she vowed, "This is nothing to your aunt. When the time comes, grandma will tell your aunt to let you go to the same school as your two cousins!"
Qian Jinling's two daughters were born younger than Qian Meijuan and called her "Sister." Qian Meijuan heard they were attending a school only children from wealthy families could afford. Could she really go there? She was a little unsure.
However, when she thought about how filial her aunt was to her grandparents and how she almost always granted their requests, she was no longer so worried and instead began to look forward to a better life in the future.
She wanted to escape from her current situation so much. Even though she would be living under someone else's roof if she went to her aunt's house, would the situation be worse than it is now?
The family had this plan but did not inform Qian Jinling in advance because Mrs. Qian had her own considerations.
She'd been in contact with Qian Jinling more often recently, and she could sense she was getting a bit impatient. If she'd told her in advance, Qian Jinling would probably have pushed them back. It would be better to just go first and ask for their permission later. Wouldn't that idiot girl have to arrange accommodations for them?
No matter how rich Qian Jinling was, or how comfortable her life was, she was still the daughter of the old Qian family. Why should she live the life of a wealthy wife while her family suffered in the village? As a family, we should share happiness. Isn't that what we should share?
The Qian family thought this and felt that this decision was absolutely correct. With a plan in mind, they became more energetic and began to pack their things in a hurry.
The next day, Qian Meijuan went to school as usual, thinking that she would soon leave here and become a city dweller. Facing those who bullied her, she was not as nervous and afraid as before. When school was over, those people blocked the road as usual.
Qian Meijuan grabbed the girl who led the fight by the hair and wouldn't let go, scratching her face until it was all scratched. No matter how hard the others pulled, they couldn't get her away, and she even pulled out a bunch of the girl's hair.
She looked very scary, her eyes were red and she looked like she wanted to kill someone. Finally, someone was about to call her parents, and Qian Meijuan let go, stood up and quickly ran back home.
The other girls were frightened by Qian Meijuan's fierce behavior and did not dare to chase her.
Qian Meijuan had a great time fighting. From then on, she suddenly realized that even bad guys can be afraid. What they fear most is that you are more ruthless than them, and that you will risk your life to fight them.
