Wang Ximei echoed Wang Fengying, shouting, "If you have the ability to make up lies, why don't you let Ajian come out to confront you! I want to see how he got into this city's No. 1 middle school!"
Most of the other villagers who came along were there just to join in the fun, while some came to mediate out of fear that something might happen.
Lin Ying then understood the purpose of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law's visit, and she was immediately happy, looking at them as if they were a clown.
She didn't argue, but just walked silently to the phone and dialed a number.
Wang Ximei and Wang Fengying stood with their hands on their hips, just watching, their faces still showing indignation.
The call was connected quickly.
"Hello, hello, is this Mr. Ji, Xu Jian's homeroom teacher?"
"Yes, who are you?"
"I'm Xu Jian's mother. Hello, Teacher Ji. I'd like to ask what Xu Jian's score was in the high school entrance exam? Also, which high school did he get admitted to?"
Teacher Ji was obviously impressed by Xu Jian. She told Lin Ying Xu Jian's grades and the school he was admitted to without even checking. She was also very warm when she spoke to Lin Ying, "To be honest, Xu Jian performed very stably in this high school entrance exam. I was worried that he would focus on the saxophone and that it would affect his academic performance. I didn't expect that he not only played the saxophone well, but also spoke English fluently and his academic performance was also very impressive.
I would like to ask Xu Jian's mother, do you plan to send your child to study abroad in the future?"
Lin Ying was so flattered by Teacher Ji's praise that she smiled from ear to ear and didn't know what to do.
By the time she hung up the phone, her face was frozen with smile.
Wang Ximei, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, who were staring at Lin Ying, had ugly expressions on their faces.
Lin Ying crossed her arms proudly, "This is my son's class teacher. You can't trust what I say, but the class teacher won't lie, right? If you still don't believe me, you can go to the No. 1 Middle School and ask! The grandson that your Xu family raised with all their efforts can't compare to the child that our Lin family raised. What can we do?
I know you are unhappy, so please continue to be unhappy, hahahahaha."
Lin Ying laughed arrogantly as if she was crazy. The angrier Wang Ximei and Wang Fengying got, the louder she laughed.
The villagers were worried that Wang Ximei and Wang Fengying would be angry to death, so they hurried forward to persuade them to go back.
The two were practically dragged out of the store.
As soon as they left, Lin Ying returned to normal.
The customers who came to buy clothes had not left yet. Knowing that Lin Ying had raised such an outstanding son, they came forward to congratulate her and bought something.
Lin Ying made another fortune easily.
Looking back at Xu Dahai who was settling the score, he snorted unhappily, "You didn't even fart when they came to make trouble just now!"
Xu Dahai touched his nose awkwardly and said, "Wife, you looked so powerful just now that you can kill everyone. If I go over there, I will only cause trouble for you. It's better for you to just shut up.
But I saw it just now. My sister-in-law was so angry that veins popped out and her eyes almost popped out. This is the first time I've seen her so angry in all these years. And my mother was stunned."
Lin Ying sneered, "Isn't this normal? In her eyes, except for Xu Jie, she doesn't care about other grandchildren. Now the grandchild she despises is better than her darling. How can she feel happy?
We have broken up now, so we should live separately. If we still stay together, do you believe your mother will force me to let our Lin family help her teach her grandson?"
Xu Dahai blinked and was about to say that it wasn't necessary, but then he changed his mind and thought that her mother was not a clear-headed person and she might really do that.
Because his family didn't give him face, Xu Dahai spoke in a much weaker tone in front of Lin Ying.
In the evening, Xu Dashan returned home from get off work and found that there was no one at home. There was nothing in the kitchen and the pots and stove were cold. He was dumbfounded. He ran to the neighbor's house to ask and found out that Wang Fengying was in the old house.
I hurried over and just as I entered the yard of the old house, I heard Wang Fengying crying from inside.
Xu Dashan's expression suddenly changed, "What's going on?"
Zhang Guizhi, who was picking beans in the yard, looked up at Xu Dashan and said unhappily, "Brother, you are finally here. My sister-in-law has been crying in our house for the whole afternoon. People who know her think that she is upset because Ajie did not do well in the exam. People who don't know her think that we did something to her!
She came to our house and cried like this for no reason. She might not be afraid of crying herself blind, but I think it's bad luck!"
"Okay! Say less." Xu Dachuan pushed Zhang Guizhi twice, signaling her to shut up, and then explained to Xu Dashan: "These past few days, people in the village have been saying that Ajian was admitted to the No. 1 Middle School in the city. My eldest sister-in-law and my mother don't believe it. They think that Ajian didn't do well in the exam, and my second sister-in-law deliberately spread rumors everywhere, with the purpose of suppressing Ajie.
The two of them were very angry, so at noon they brought many women from the village to the town to confront the second sister-in-law and insisted that she clarify the truth. Unexpectedly, the second sister-in-law directly called Ajian's class teacher and asked him to speak.
Only then did I realize that Ajian not only had good grades, but he also studied something, I don’t know what it was, and Ajian spoke English very well. His class teacher even asked my second sister-in-law if she planned to let Ajian study abroad.
Everyone heard it clearly. Mom and eldest sister-in-law were slapped in the face, and the second sister-in-law even showed off in front of them. Mom was so angry that she felt dizzy. When she came back, she said she felt uncomfortable and kept lying in the room.
The eldest sister-in-law lay in the main room and cried for a long time. Several groups of people from the village came, but they couldn't stop her. "
The blood color on Xu Dashan's face gradually faded because of Xu Dachuan's words. He felt very sad when he thought that his family had spent all their savings to support their son's education, but his son only got into No. 5 Middle School, while Xu Jian got into No. 1 Middle School.
But he is still a man after all, not as fragile as Wang Fengying.
Xu Dashan walked into the main hall, pulled Wang Fengying, and his voice suddenly became much older, "Don't cry, the child has worked very hard. Even if you don't compare with Ajian, he is also one of the best students among us."
"What's the use! You know how big the gap is between No. 5 Middle School and No. 1 Middle School! Why? Why did we work so hard, and the child even repeated a year, and he ended up in No. 5 Middle School? Xu Jian's grades were so bad before, not even a fraction of Ajie's, how did he get into No. 1 Middle School? I don't accept it, I don't accept it!"
Wang Fengying cried until her voice became hoarse, and she started to act like a spoiled child in front of Xu Dashan, taking it out on him.
Xu Dashan was exhausted after a long day. It would have been fine if he had no food to eat, but he also had to be harassed by his wife. He instantly got angry and said, "What can you do if you don't accept it? We have already spent all our savings to buy a house in the city, and we have sent our children to school in the city. What else can we do?
Go out and have a look. How many families in our village and the whole Pingxi Town can achieve this? This is the limit of my ability. If you are still not satisfied, go and do it yourself. I don't care what happens!"
Xu Dashan turned around and left angrily.
Wang Fengying's heart was completely chilled, and she cried even harder. (End of this chapter)
