When Qin Li heard Xu Guixiang's voice, she knew she was in the wrong, so she turned away and didn't dare to look at her.
Wang Meilan rushed over and said, "What? You think you are justified in abusing your daughter? Your daughter was raised in your home until she was ten years old, but my daughter suffered in your home until she was ten years old.
In the past, I was too lazy to argue with you for Lili's sake, but now that we have come to this point, let's settle this account."
"You're talking about Qin Li's mother. You said your daughter suffered a lot in the Su family, was beaten and scolded. Do you have any evidence for this or are you just making it up?"
Li Dani couldn't listen anymore and stood up to question Wang Meilan.
"What evidence do we have for this? When we first took Qin Li back home, she started crying and told us all the suffering she had endured over the years. There is no evidence, only witnesses."
Upon hearing this, Li Dani couldn't help but sneer, and then walked to Qin Li's bed.
"Qin Li, when you were at the Su family, we were neighbors. You might have been able to deceive others, but as for Wang, he knew your family's situation very well.
Come, tell us in front of your foster mother who raised you with all her might how they abused you when you were in the Su family.
Upon hearing this, Qin Li pulled the quilt over her head and covered it.
Those were all sad stories she made up. Su Wan was still alive at the time, and she was afraid that her biological parents would not like her, their biological daughter who had returned from the countryside.
She was afraid that she could not compete with Su Wan's position in her biological parents' hearts, so she described herself in such a pitiful way. Her purpose was to make her biological parents feel guilty about her and love her more.
After recognizing their relationship, she thought that as long as she didn't look for them, they would never have any intersection in this life. She never thought that this matter would be revealed in the hospital ward today.
Xu Guixiang also heard it exactly.
What’s even more infuriating is that she never expected that Su Wan would actually marry into the Lu family.
The Lu family and the Su family have been neighbors for decades, so they are of course very clear about the Su family's situation.
This is bad. It seems her lie has been exposed.
Although she didn't dare to look at Xu Guixiang, she could feel that Xu Guixiang was looking at her with disappointment at this moment.
In a hurry, she actually hid herself in the quilt.
"Lili, don't be afraid. You have nothing to do with them now. With you here, they will never dare to bully you again."
Wang Meilan thought Qin Li was frightened by them and hurried to comfort her.
"It seems that everyone here is not an outsider. My daughter-in-law just gave birth to a premature baby and needs to rest well. Please take your time to talk and don't get excited."
Seeing that everyone was about to quarrel, Zhu Hong hurriedly acted as a peacemaker.
She was afraid that the quarrel would scare her eldest grandson, and she was also afraid that Qin Li would be in a bad mood and affect her grandmother, and then her eldest grandson would go hungry.
Wang Wenbin was a little curious. Qin Li had told him how hard she worked in the countryside. Now he saw Xu Guixiang and Li Dani both looked angry, but Qin Li didn't even dare to show her head.
This was obviously an insult, otherwise, with her unforgiving personality, how could she tolerate others slandering her in person?
So he felt that there must be something going on here, and he wanted to hear about Qin Li's real situation in the village.
Xu Guixiang didn't want to start a quarrel in the ward, which would affect Su Wan and other pregnant women, so she prepared to swallow her anger.
Li Dani, on the other hand, was not afraid of making a big fuss. Mainly, she felt sorry for Xu Guixiang and her two children.
The whole family worked hard to raise their daughter, and she dotes on her. Not only is she ungrateful, but she also speaks ill of them behind their backs. Is she still a human being?
Li Dani also knew that it was not good to make noise in the ward, so she lowered her voice a bit, but every word she spoke was loud and powerful.
"I hate telling lies the most. I can testify that Qin Li is the happiest girl of her age in Shiqiao Village.
Since she was a child, the villagers have never seen her work in the fields, let alone fetch water from the well. When she talked about being beaten and scolded at home, at most it was because Old Lady Su scolded her for eating and doing nothing.
However, Xu Guixiang was often scolded by Old Lady Su for protecting her daughter.
It can be said responsibly that Xu Guixiang and her husband regarded Qin Li as more precious than their three other sons. The family had no money and could not afford to support so many students.
The two of them would rather let their two sons go to school than support Qin Li's studies. Qin Li is the one who studies the most in their family."
Wang Meilan curled her lips when she heard this, "That's because Qin Li is smart. She said it nicely, letting her son go to school and her daughter go to school. In your rural area where sons are valued more than daughters, how could you let your sons go to school for your daughter? Look, they must be too stupid to study on their own."
Xu Guixiang was angered by Wang Meilan's words, "You...you, you, you are simply unreasonable. You have a bad heart, don't think others are the same as you..."
"Are you anxious now? I'm afraid you're embarrassed because I was right."
"You're talking nonsense. No wonder Qin Li is so heartless. It turns out she followed her mother. Go ask around in our village and find out how Qin Li studied in high school." Li Dani was so angry that she started scolding her.
Xu Guixiang was also angry. She originally wanted to save some face for Qin Li, but Qin Li shrank into the quilt without saying a word.
Qin Li, you were ruthless first, so don't blame your foster mother for not giving you face.
Thinking of this, Xu Guixiang gritted her teeth and said, "Qin Li, don't hide anymore. Your conscience has not been eaten by dogs. Sit up and tell me how you went to high school."
But Qin Li lay there for a long time without moving at all, as if she were dead.
Li Dani lost her temper and said, "Qin Li, you don't want to tell me, right? Well, I'll tell you.
In fact, you didn’t even get into high school. The reason you were able to go to high school was because your adoptive parents wanted to save face, so they brought gifts to a distant relative who was a high school teacher and asked for it, right?”
"When her high school teacher asked her how many points she had taken in junior high school, she was too embarrassed to tell him that she had only scored over 100 points in all subjects combined.
The teachers were amused when they saw the grades, saying that studying with such grades was a sheer waste of money.
How could he not know that this was a waste of money? He also knew that Qin Li had been lazy since she was a child. She insisted on going to high school just because she didn't want to work hard.
놖 knew that she couldn't endure hardship, so he thought of letting her spend two years in high school, so that she could say later that she had graduated from high school.
Maybe I can find a job in the city. Even if I can't go to the city, I can be a primary school teacher in the village.
Finally, after much persuasion, they reluctantly agreed to take her in because they were relatives. How can this be considered that she studied hard and passed the exam on her own?"
Xu Guixiang also took the risk.
As soon as Xu Guixiang finished speaking, Li Dani took over.
"As far as I know, whenever there is something good in their family, they always give it to Qin Li first. Who would have thought that in the end they would raise an ungrateful person who would also go around talking nonsense.
What she said is true. If you don’t believe it, you can go to our Shiqiao Village to ask around and see if she is lying or we are lying.”
After Li Dani finished speaking, the entire ward fell silent.
The other two women in labor and their accompanying family members initially complained about their noise, but now they were actually listening with great interest.
Wang Meilan saw Qin Li hiding under the quilt without saying a word. She knew that Qin Li was not the kind of person who would swallow her anger in silence. It seemed that Qin Li was lying.
