"Comrade An, do you have any misunderstandings about me? Why do you keep pestering me?"
An Jinsheng was stunned and explained: "I didn't, I just care about you, I don't mean any harm."
"Please keep your distance from me in the future. It's easy for people to misunderstand you. To put it more seriously, you're no different from being a hooligan."
Song Shishi's face was serious, with a hint of impatience in her eyes.
An Jinsheng took a step back and glanced at the other educated youth in the courtyard.
Seeing that not many people were paying attention to them, he spoke up: "Comrade Song, why do you think so? I am just expressing my pure revolutionary friendship."
"I don't care what you're thinking, please stay away from me!"
Song Shishi was too lazy to listen to his nonsense and left after he finished speaking.
As soon as they entered the house, Su Yu happily pulled Song Shishi and stuffed a handful of candy into her arms.
...
...
"This is the candy I brought from home. It's so sweet."
After saying that, she glanced at the other people in the room and whispered, "No one else has it."
Seeing her so happy, Song Shishi guessed that the problem with the cabinet must have been solved.
"Thank you." Song Shishi said thank you quietly without saying anything.
…
After working for several days in a row, the blisters on Song Shishi's hands had scabbed over because she had applied medicine and worn gloves.
Since talking with An Jinsheng that night, he has calmed down a lot.
But every day, after finishing his own work, he would help her harvest wheat.
Song Shishi was too lazy to care about him.
As long as An Jinsheng doesn't get close to her, she can do whatever he wants to her.
Without her support, An Jinsheng would face hard times ahead.
At noon that day, Song Shishi had just finished her dry food and was about to continue working in the fields when she saw Yang Huifang running towards her in a hurry.
"What's the matter? Why are you in such a hurry?"
Yang Huifang pointed in the direction of the youth education center and said, "I just came from the youth education center and saw...saw Xu Li being beaten by her aunt. It seemed that she was also talking about marrying her to a fool from the next village."
Xu Li and Song Shishi have a good relationship, which is something that all the educated youth at the educated youth site know.
When Song Shishi heard this, she dropped the sickle in her hand and ran to Aunt Xu Li's house.
When Song Shishi thought of Xu Li's pale face after soaking in the river, she became extremely anxious.
Xu Li, you must hold on and wait for me.
"You little bitch, if you don't marry me, I'll tie you up even if I have to."
As soon as Song Shishi reached the gate of Xu Li's aunt Xu Guiying's house, she heard curses and Xu Li's muffled groans coming from inside.
"Sister, if you don't go, how can I have the money to marry a wife?"
"How old are you and you're thinking about getting married? Besides, you marry yours, what does it have to do with me? I still have to wait for my brother to come back, I won't get married!"
"Anyway, as long as the other party is alive, he won't say anything even if I cripple you today."
"Bang!"
Song Shishi kicked the gate open.
At this time, Xu Guiying was holding up a tightly wrapped bamboo silk, ready to hit Xu Li.
Song Shishi's eyes swept across a piece of wood on the ground. Without thinking, she picked it up and threw it at Xu Guiying.
“Ouch~”
The piece of wood happened to hit the back of Xu Guiying's hand holding the bamboo silk, and the sudden pain made her let go.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Song Shishi rushed to Xu Li.
She protected Xu Li and turned around to glare at Xu Guiying.
"What did she do wrong that you had to be so harsh?"
Xu Guiying covered her reddened hand, looked Song Shishi up and down, pointed at Xu Li with gritted teeth, "I say, you little bitch, why are you so stubborn today? Do you think you have this educated youth as your backer?"
"I worked so hard to raise you, and now you think you've grown strong enough to team up with others to bully me?"
The more Xu Guiying spoke, the louder her voice became.
Xu Li was terrified. She was in so much pain that she couldn't stand up straight. She could only curl up on the ground and cry.
"You are just her aunt. Not to mention that Xu Li has only been in your house for a few years, in these few years, have you ever let her have a full meal?
Was there ever any time that the allowance Xu Qiang sent back that you didn’t embezzle?
You still have the nerve to say that you worked hard to raise her? I think it's because you have a big face, so it's okay."
Song Shishi was also furious and argued with Xu Guiying with her neck stiff.
"What do you, an outsider, know about our family affairs? She eats my food and lives in my house, so how can I not support her? In this world, everything you eat and use costs money. Isn't it my duty to take the allowance her brother sends back?"
Xu Guiying was not someone who would give in easily. After refuting Song Shishi, she turned around and picked up the bamboo quilt again, pointing at Xu Li and scolding, "You ungrateful bastard, you just watched an outsider say this about your aunt, right? Are you dumb? Speak to me!"
Seeing that Xu Li didn't say anything, Xu Guiying pretended to continue hitting her with the bamboo whip.
Song Shishi didn't think much about it. She closed her eyes and threw herself on Xu Li.
"Sister!" Xu Li couldn't stop crying.
She is so useless and now she has implicated Sister Shishi.
If she died, would she be free?
Will I never have to suffer like this again?
She doesn't want to marry that fool...
Song Shishi was hit hard and felt a burning pain on her back.
"Jialiang, go and tie up your sister for me. Even if it means death, we have to send her over today."
After saying that, Xu Guiying's son Chen Jialiang rolled up his sleeves, stepped forward, grabbed Song Shishi's arm, pulled her up from Xu Li, and with a force of his arm, threw her out.
Song Shishi couldn't control her body. Seeing that she was about to fall on a sharp wooden stick stuck upside down on the ground, she closed her eyes resignedly.
But the expected pain did not happen. She only felt that she was firmly caught by a pair of strong hands.
She opened her eyes and slowly raised her head, and Meng Xunzhou's resolute outline appeared in her eyes in the sunlight.
Meng Xunzhou seemed to be angry. At this moment, her heart skipped a beat.
Before I could even process my reaction, screams like a pig being slaughtered came from the other side.
"ah……"
With the help of Meng Xunzhou, Song Shishi stood up and looked in the direction of Xu Li.
"Qiang... Qiangzi, why are you back? Let Jialiang go. It's all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding..."
At this time, Xu Qiang twisted Chen Jialiang's wrist and pushed him against the wall.
When Xu Guiying saw Xu Qiang, she immediately deflated. All her previous arrogance was gone, leaving only fear.
"Misunderstand?"
Xu Qiang glared at Xu Guiying, "I sent Lili to you because I was afraid that no one would take care of her while I was in the army, and that she would be bullied.
I lived frugally every month and sent the saved allowance back home, for fear that Lili was not living well.
Aunt, what did you promise me? Is this how you take care of her? "
"Qiangzi, listen to me, this is really a misunderstanding. I am doing this for Lili's own good. You don't know how long I begged the matchmaker to find this wealthy family. This marriage is something that no one else can get even if they beg for it."
Xu Guiying waved her hands with a flattering smile on her face, but her eyes were always stealing glances at Xu Qiang's hand, for fear of angering him, so that he would break Chen Jialiang's hand in a fit of rage.
