Chapter 015 Family is Coming
"Xiaoyuan, someone from your family is here."
The sound passed through Tang Yuan's ears and reached the game space.
In the blink of an eye, she recovered from herself and looked at the person who spoke: "My family?"
"Oh yeah, I almost forgot, your dad is in our factory. It's been two months, and I haven't seen you guys talk much. I almost forgot about it."
The people watching nodded: "If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten. Who are the relatives of Xiaoyuan that you just mentioned?"
"It seems that it was Xiaoyuan's uncle and grandmother who asked Xiaoyuan first." The person who spoke looked at Tang Yuan, "Why don't you go and take a look? There's nothing to worry about here."
Now that the person has come to my door, I have to go and see him.
Tang Yuan stood up, put the book in his hand on the chair, and just as he walked out of the boiler room, he saw the people accompanied by Tang Jianguo.
As soon as she saw her, the old lady rushed over, grabbed her hand and cried and made a fuss: "Xiaoyuan, Xiaoyuan, how could you be so cruel to leave grandma and go away? Grandma has never been bad to you. From childhood to adulthood, I raised you with my own hands and shit, and you just left without even replying a letter!"
These words quickly attracted the attention of people around.
Rustling sounds came from all corners.
"What's going on? It's been two months. Why did this old lady suddenly show up? Didn't she say before that Tang Jianguo and his daughter had a bad relationship?"
"No matter how bad the relationship is, the child grew up in the old home, and the old lady must have feelings for him. No matter what, at least the child can have food to eat. The child cannot die of hunger early."
"That's right, but Xiaoyuan didn't write a single letter back after coming here?"
"Of course, otherwise why would she come to make trouble at this time? From an emotional point of view, the old lady raised me, so even if there are mistakes, she can make up for it. As a young person, you should always take care of your elders. How can you go against your elders?"
"Then it was the child who did it wrong."
…
The appearance of the old man made Tang Yuan feel a little confused. She had been staying here for the past two months and had really forgotten about things in her hometown. She thought that now that she was out, her family members in her hometown would stop making trouble, but she didn't expect that they would make trouble in the factory.
In two months, she gained some weight. She likes to be clean and take care of herself every day, and she is no longer as dirty as before. In addition, she happened to be wearing new clothes today, so many people have forgotten what she looked like two months ago.
All I can say is that this family came at the right time, just when she was getting better, leaving her with no way to say more about her condition.
Looking around, she saw her scumbag father and stepmother looking at each other.
When the two of them looked away from each other, there was a hint of pride in their eyes, until they noticed Tang Yuan's gaze, and then they immediately put away their expressions.
This made her realize that it was no coincidence that the old lady and uncle came here today. She also said, how come this scumbag father and stepmother didn't cause any trouble after she had been working for so long? It turned out that they were waiting for her here.
But how to solve this problem...
The old lady must have come here for the money. She now works in a factory and receives salary and receipts every month. If she were really suppressed by "filial piety", she would be left with little money.
Although her monthly salary was not much and she could earn it back by selling a few pieces of cloth, it was also earned from her work. How could she give it away for nothing?
Tang Yuan frowned. If that didn't work, he could only change his "personality" and tell everything about his hometown in detail, perhaps he could win sympathy.
As the thought flashed through her mind, she heard someone whisper, "You're absolutely wrong. It's good enough to be able to raise a child these days."
No, it's not good to explain it too clearly. Even if she explains the whole story, she will still have to pay from her own pocket. Moreover, once her character is exposed and people find out that she has been pretending, her life in the machinery factory will not be easy.
…
"Xiao Yuan, do you really not care about grandma anymore?" The old lady stepped forward and held Tang Yuan again, "Grandma missed you so much that my heart ached. You ran away without saying a word, and grandma was so worried about you. Fortunately, your father wrote back and found out that you ran here. We fed you and clothed you. How could we be bad to you?!"
Tang Yuan glanced over and saw her uncle walking towards this side. She suddenly stepped back, tripped over her left foot and fell directly to the ground.
Before anyone could say anything, she started yelling, "Don't hit me, I know I was wrong."
"No, I can wash clothes, I can cook, I can work in the fields, don't hit me!"
"Wow... don't kill me. I told my dad to send me money. Send two dollars next time. Please don't kill me..."
"My dad didn't abandon me. He gave me a dollar last time. He wants me. He wants me, wuwuwuwuwu..."
Someone was pulling her, but she shrank further and further away, and finally leaned against the wall and started crying.
At first it was just fake crying, but then more and more memories of the original owner came to her mind, and her emotions also surged. Without her trying to suppress it, her crying became louder and louder.
Faintly, she heard someone calling for the leader, and then a hoarse voice shouted a few words like "Don't hit me". Through her tears, she vaguely saw the conditions of the people not far away, and her crying became louder and louder.
When she cried the loudest, perhaps due to lack of oxygen, she felt dizzy and passed out.
The dizzy state passed and the sounds around me gradually became clearer.
"Hurry, hurry, the child is dizzy."
"How can you be her family? You beat her, scold her, and let her die?"
"Tang Jianguo, you are such a scoundrel. You have a daughter at home, and you only send her one yuan every once in a while. You are letting her die! Everyone knows that life in the village is hard, but you don't give her anything. If you really want to investigate it carefully, it's murder!"
"Oh, no wonder the kid is running. He's almost dying, how can he not run?"
"We are finally living a good life now, how come there are people like this?"
…
Everyone hurriedly lifted Tang Yuan up and sent her to the infirmary.
Halfway through the walk, she heard someone talking to an old lady. She pursed her lips slightly and opened her eyes a tiny slit. She happened to be able to see the old lady directly, so she deliberately widened her eyes and smiled at her.
This smile instantly angered the old lady: "She is pretending, she is pretending to be dizzy, this little bitch is really not a good person, I will beat you to death!"
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing?"
"Xiao Yuan... Oh no, she rolled her eyes, quickly take her to the infirmary... No, quickly send her to the hospital, it will be too late if we don't send her there now."
"How do you manage to be a grandmother? I thought it was not easy for you before, but now it seems that you have beaten many people before!"
"She was just pretending. I saw her smiling at me, she must have done it on purpose." The old lady said angrily and tried to pull away the person who was carrying Tang Yuan.
The person who was carrying him became unstable and almost fell down, but even so, Tang Yuan remained motionless.
"Go to the hospital!"
After hearing this, Tang Yuan did not continue listening, but shifted his consciousness, transferring his main consciousness to the body of "Xiaofang", then from the game space to the temporary residence arranged outside, and walked out of the alley through the temporary residence.
There was a hospital near the machinery factory. She judged that the factory would definitely send her to that hospital, so she took two quick steps.
As soon as I arrived at the hospital entrance, I saw a bicycle being pushed over.
I sat in the back seat, and two or four people supported me all the way to the hospital, calling for a doctor as they went, and I was taken directly to the hospital.
She could control the consciousness of two people at the same time, but today she divided most of her consciousness, enough to make it impossible for the doctor to see the problem.
How can a body that has lost most of its consciousness not be considered fainting?
She was sent to the hospital and felt that the trip was safe, so she simply strolled to the machinery factory to see what was going on.
She was not the only one who was watching the excitement, because the commotion caused by sending the people out before was so loud that not only the people in the machinery factory, but also the people coming and going around the factory were attracted to come over and find out what had happened.
Many people witnessed the farce just now. Apart from the few people who were sent to the hospital, there were also a few gossipy people among the rest of the people. They took the initiative to walk to the door and chat with others about what had just happened.
When talking about the previous events, everyone had the same reaction.
"How can a child ignore his elders? As a grandmother, you have raised the children. Now that you are paid, you have to send some back home."
"That's right, it's fifteen dollars a month, and sending five dollars is the right thing to do."
Tang Yuan curled his lips. It's easy to talk about other people's money.
"I think you should send at least ten dollars. For a girl, five dollars a month is enough for her to live on."
Wow, here's an even more generous one.
"Come on, you gave the old man ten dollars, not to mention three dollars, right?"
"I...I have to support a large family."
Tang Yuan couldn't help laughing out loud, and before anyone saw her, she hid behind him. At the same time, other people's laughter rang in her ears, which made her very angry. She left in shame with a red face.
At this time, the person who had been gossiping earlier started talking about the subsequent developments.
This person obviously did it on purpose. He said half of the sentence first, then said the other half. Before anyone could react, they heard the second half of the sentence and quickly became indignant.
"How can you do this to a child?"
"Why... why did he beat and kill someone? Didn't he provide her with food and clothing and treat her well?"
"If he was really fine, why would he run away? He must have been abused at home."
"Are you talking about the silly-looking little girl who came into our factory two months ago?" The guard had been listening with his ears perked up, and now he couldn't help but speak up, "Why did that little girl look silly? Could she have been beaten up at home?"
"What silly girl?"
"How stupid is that? Do you hire idiots in your factory?"
"She's not stupid, she's just a little dull. She can talk and communicate, and everyone in the factory knows it. But this girl is definitely not in a good condition. She might have been beaten at home. It's really pitiful."
"Poor thing, you hit someone if you want to, but why did you hit him so hard that he became stupid?"
Tang Yuan stood in the crowd and felt that the melons were not tasty today.
How did the whole factory know about this? When did her reputation become so widespread?
