She must take back what belongs to her, no matter what the reason is for her biological parents to abandon her. From now on, she will live a good life alone. It is already 75 years now, and she will be able to leave here after the college entrance examination in 1977.
Tang Shiyan was thinking about how to leave here when the time came, when the captain came back from outside.
The captain asked, "Girl Tang, where did your grandparents go? Why are you here alone?"
Tang Shiyan: "Captain, they all went into the room. I don't know what they are doing in the room."
The team leader shouted, "Uncle, Aunt, Tang Wenhua, Feng Lihong, please come out for a moment. I have something to tell you."
They reluctantly came out of the room after hearing the captain's shout outside. Feng Lihong asked, "Captain, what's the matter with you calling us out?"
The team leader said, "Feng Lihong, stop playing dumb. I'm just here to tell you about Miss Tang's plan to separate from you. What do you think?"
Feng Lihong just snorted without saying anything. She turned her head and glanced at Tang Shiyan with a fierce look, which meant to remind her that if you dare to split up the family, I will beat you to death.
Seeing that look, Tang Shiyan acted pitiful and said, "Captain, look at my mother's eyes, it's as if she wants to eat me. I'm so scared. It seems that I really can't stay in this family anymore. I must separate."
The captain also turned his head to look at Feng Lihong, and said to her, "Feng Lihong, don't look at me like that. Things still need to be resolved. You think you can solve it like this? Look at how scared you made Tang girl. No wonder she wants to separate from you."
"Just from your attitude, I can tell you guys bully Miss Tang all the time. If Miss Tang gets upset and does something stupid one day, you'll still have to take responsibility."
"If something really happens to Miss Tang, even I won't let you go, let alone the police."
Old Lady Zhou: "This damn bitch, if you want to divide the family property, forget it. We raised her to this age, we can't just raise her for nothing. If you want to divide the family property, you have to pay 300 yuan, otherwise, forget it."
"Even if we take it to the police station, we're in the right. Even if we hit her, so what? What parent wouldn't hit their own child? Why is it not okay with us?"
The team leader said: "Auntie, it's useless for you to say these things. Who beats their children as hard as you do? Look at your body, it's covered with scars, not a single bruise remains. You are abusing them."
Of course Tang Shiyan knew what her family was thinking, so she just watched them perform without saying a word. They wanted her to give them money, did they think it was so easy to take her money?
The team leader was also very angry with this family. They were unreasonable and refused to listen no matter what he said.
The captain said, "You're almost there. Tell me what it will take for you to agree to the separation agreement signed by Miss Tang. I don't have that much time to waste here with you."
Tang Wenhua: "Captain, since Tang Shiyan has disregarded her family's feelings and insisted on splitting up, we can only agree to her wish. Don't say that we, as her parents, don't want her anymore."
"Since a little girl is so impulsive, we adults can do nothing about it. We can only let her suffer outside. Then she will know who treats her well."
Feng Lihong also chimed in, "Captain, it wasn't easy for us to raise her to this age. It's not something you can raise with just a bowl of rice. She eats, wears, and uses everything without spending any money. Even if we want to divide the family, you should at least give us some hard work compensation, right?"
"She lives better than some girls in other families. We worked hard to save money to send her to school, but we didn't expect that she would be an ungrateful person. After studying a little, she became so capable that she dared to beat us and even split up the family property."
Mrs. Zhou: "That's right, this little girl has really grown up. She already has an agreed in-law family. They are willing to pay 400 yuan for the betrothal gift. They are in the fishing business. They live in a good family in the town and can eat fish every day."
"With a body like hers now, if she gets married, I guarantee we'll be able to raise her to be plump and white in no time. We're doing this for her own good."
Tang Shiyan chuckled in her heart. She knew that the old woman Zhou had no good intentions. Look how beautiful and nice her words were. They were for her own good. I think it was for their own good.
The captain was speechless. He really didn't understand why this family spoke so irritatingly. They said it was for Tang Shiyan's own good, but it was obvious that they were only doing it for money. It was simply for their own benefit.
The captain couldn't bear to listen any longer. "Stop talking about this and get down to business. Are you going to sign or not? If you sign, Miss Tang will have nothing to do with you anymore. Don't bring up your elders when the time comes."
"I have a lot of things to do and I don't have time to waste on you guys. Isn't it quite capable to bicker with others at work? Why are you being so fussy now when it comes to doing some serious work?"
Feng Lihong and Mrs. Zhou are both shameless and don't feel guilty at all. What matters most to them is getting the money.
The two looked at each other, and Old Lady Zhou said, "Captain, if we want to split up, we have to get that bitch Tang Shiyan to give us three hundred yuan. She's the one who wants to split up, not us. We raised her so much, we can't just raise her for nothing. Otherwise, we'll die together. No matter what, we won't split up."
The team leader said: "Auntie, aren't you bullying Tang girl? She washes clothes for your family, cooks for you, and does farm work all day long. How can she have 300 yuan to give you?
Old Lady Zhou said, "That's the little bitch's business. We don't care. If you want to split the family business, you have to pay three hundred yuan. Otherwise, we won't agree."
Tang Shiyan looked at the captain and said, "Uncle Captain, they actually want me to pay 300 yuan before they are willing to sign. It's not impossible, but I have a condition."
Captain: What are your conditions?
Tang Shiyan: "I will wait a month to pay this money. I can't come up with the money now. If they don't agree, I will have to go to the Public Security Bureau. Anyway, I am alone and I am not afraid."
"Also, I don't want anything from their house. I just want my household registration to be moved out. From now on, we'll just keep our distance and have no contact with each other until we die."
"From now on, don't use your status as an elder to interfere in my marriage or have any thoughts that shouldn't be raised. If you have such thoughts, I will make sure he dies miserably."
"Uncle Captain, when I separate myself from you, you still have to write me a separation document and have them sign it."
