Chapter 29



Jiang Jingyan's familiar voice sounded like a bolt from the blue to An Meixue, completely panicking her.

But at this moment, her eyes were full of the wooden sign hanging around Yang Shuying's neck, and she was unwilling to miss this opportunity.

Now that I have fallen out with Yang Shuying, it will be impossible for me to get it next time.

Without bothering to explain to Jiang Jingyan immediately, she pressed Yang Shuying to the ground and quickly tore off the wooden sign around Yang Shuying's neck.

The red string of the wooden sign was torn off, and Shuying hissed in pain, and was pushed to the ground by An Meixue.

An Meixue had no time to be happy when she got the wooden sign. She stood up in panic and wanted to explain to Jiang Jingyan.

But he was met with Jiang Jingyan's ugly face.

No, why is Brother Jiang here?

An Meixue was anxious and habitually pushed the blame: "Brother Jiang, it was that bastard Yang Shuying who harmed me!"

As she was about to make her argument, some of the most gossipy aunties in the village came out from beside the haystack.

An Meixue of course recognized that these ladies were the most gossipy people in the village, and her face changed drastically. Jiang Jingyan's face also changed slightly, obviously not expecting that there were still people here.

At this moment, several ladies felt particularly sympathetic towards the daughter of the Yang family. Look at how the silly daughter's good reputation was ruined by this educated youth An.

He used the good things in his home to pursue Jiang Zhiqing, but the shameless An Zhiqing took all of them.

Not only were the family heirlooms stolen, but they also wanted the daughter of the Yang family to die.

Oh my God, how vicious must the heart of this female educated youth be.

The better the impression these ladies had of this educated youth An before, the worse their impression of him is now.

Their older generation had lived in the village all their lives but had never encountered such a vicious and pretentious female educated youth.

It is no exaggeration to say that this educated youth An was "seeking wealth and killing people".

Not to mention that Shuying, like them, is a native of Hongyang Society. Even if everyone in the village is not related, they are all from the same clan.

Fortunately, today they wanted to pick pheasants, so they came to the back mountain to take a look. They saw this educated youth An coming to the back mountain. Everyone was curious, so they hid behind the haystack.

Who would want them to hear such shocking gossip?

If it weren't for today, they would never have known that this decent-looking An Zhiqing actually had such a cruel and vicious heart!

Several ladies hurriedly helped Shuying up, and were surprised when they saw her fair and exceptionally pretty face.

How come this child is so white and beautiful?

It was dark yesterday and they didn’t even see it!

But this is not the time to worry about appearance.

Needless to say, the child looked extremely pale and frightened, which made the ladies feel even more sympathetic towards her and they paid extra attention to her.

"Daughter of the Yang Family, are you okay?"

"Do you want us to call your parents over for you?"

"Don't worry, we ladies will testify for you in front of the villagers today! We won't let you suffer any more injustice!"

When An Meixue heard the words of those gossipy ladies, she was almost scared to death!

The thought of what she had just said, even that she wanted Yang Shuying to die, was heard by these ladies.

I'm afraid these ladies will tell the whole village about this.

It just so happened that apart from a few aunts in the village, Brother Jiang was also there.

An Meixue didn't have the time to explain, not to mention that her words and actions just now had hit her so hard that she couldn't be more depressed.

An Meixue regretted it so much that her intestines turned green. She shouldn't have asked Yang Shuying, that bastard, to come to the back mountain last night.

At this moment, her expression changed back and forth like a chameleon. It was unknown what she was thinking about. An Meixue blurted out angrily: "Yang Shuying, are you plotting against me?"

Yes, it was this bastard who plotted against her, otherwise Brother Jiang and some of the most gossipy ladies in the village happened to be there today in the back hills which were usually deserted.

The more An Meixue thought about it, the more she hated him. Her eyes fell on Yang Shuying's pretty face, which looked wronged and fragile. She wanted to scratch her face.

Compared with Shuying's fragility and pity, An Meixue's aggressive and unrepentant attitude made several aunts in the village and Jiang Jingyan very dissatisfied.

"Hey, An Zhiqing, how can you be so shameless? You blame everything on the daughter of the Yang family? Are you used to bullying people?"

"How shameless! He's an educated youth, too. Ugh!"

"You used to act like a decent person, but now your true colors are revealed. You're still relying on the Yang family's daughter?" One of the ladies even said to Shuying, "Daughter, I'm telling you, you should never make friends with someone who's two-faced and duplicitous."

An Meixue listened to the ladies making indirect complaints, their faces turning pale and blue. It was very interesting. Yang Shuying wanted to laugh, but she had to go on with the show.

"An Meixue!"

"Brother Jiang, that's not the case. It was Yang Shuying who plotted against me. This time she really plotted against me!" An Meixue was flustered and argued with Jiang Jingyan.

She didn't want to see Jiang Ge's cold look at her.

Jiang Jingyan used to have complete faith in An Meixue, but he took every word that An Meixue said to Yang Shuying to heart.

Or does An Meixue think he has always been so stupid?

When he thought about how An Meixue had fooled him in the past, his face became particularly ugly.

He always thought An Meixue was a simple and kind person.

But the person he thought was kind and innocent secretly encouraged Yang Shuying to pursue him and refused to admit it. He put all the blame on Yang Shuying, pocketed all the valuable things Yang Shuying gave him, and even borrowed the ration coupons and food coupons that Yang Shuying asked her to pass on and gave them to him in her own name.

As moved as he was then, it seems so ridiculous to him now, because those ration coupons and food coupons she mentioned were all saved with great difficulty.

How come he didn't know that An Meixue was such a liar and yet so shameless?

He now thought about how An Meixue had always deliberately spoken well of the Yang family's daughter, but in fact it made him more disgusted and annoyed with her.

Even the good reputation of the Yang family's daughter was ruined. He used to think that the Yang family's daughter had character problems, but now think about it, this was all set up by An Meixue.

Even these were far from enough. An Meixue tried several times to snatch some ancestral wooden plaque from Yang Shuying's neck, and even wanted Yang Shuying to die several times.

An Meixue's viciousness and scheming made his heart skip a beat and his back shudder. He also didn't understand why An Meixue had set her eyes on the wooden plaque that Yang Shuying was wearing.

Jiang Jingyan's complicated gaze fell on Yang Shuying on the ground. When he saw her face, Jiang Jingyan was stunned.

Yang Shuying was seen leaning weakly against several middle-aged ladies. Her delicate, fair face looked pale, helpless, and pitiful, which made Jiang Jingyan's heart move deeply.

After being reborn in this life, An Meixue was most afraid that Brother Jiang would fall in love with Yang Shuying. Now, she saw Jiang Jingyan staring at Yang Shuying.

An Meixue was extremely panicked and resentful, and she regretted even more that she did not scratch her face when she tried to snatch the wooden sign.

How can she seduce Brother Jiang if she doesn’t have that kind of face?

But she had already snatched the wooden sign. Yang Shuying could never become beautiful again or seduce Jiang Ge again in this life.

But then Shuying touched his neck in panic, and then looked at An Meixue anxiously and said, "My wooden sign, An Meixue, give me back my wooden sign!"

The more panicked Yang Shuying became, the more relieved An Meixue felt.

Yang Shuying's eyes were red with anxiety, and he could only beg the ladies: "Auntie, that wooden sign is an heirloom of my family. My parents have always asked me to keep it well. Can you help me get it back?"

The ladies already felt sorry for her situation, so how could they not agree?

Filled with righteous indignation, they urged An Meixue to immediately return the Yang family's ancestral wooden sign to Shuying. They also said that if she didn't return it, they would tell the village chief, and when the village chief came, they would see if she still dared not return it.

Jiang Jingyan couldn't stand it anymore and ordered An Meixue to return the wooden sign to her.

How could An Meixue not know that the wooden sign in her hand might not be able to be kept today.

She subconsciously used her own blood to paint on the wooden sign, but unfortunately there was no movement for a long time.

An Meixue just thought that the wooden sign might have recognized Yang Shuying as its owner, so she couldn't use it.

Thinking of this, An Meixue hated Yang Shuying even more.

Seeing Yang Shuying seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and was about to rush forward to grab it.

An Meixue hardened her heart. Since she could never get this thing in this lifetime, she would never let it go to a scumbag like Yang Shuying, and she would not watch her become more and more beautiful.

In front of Yang Shuying, An Meixue broke the wooden sign into several pieces without hesitation and threw it under the cliff behind the mountain.

"My wooden sign!" Yang Shuying's face was filled with grief and sorrow.

An Meixue's series of actions shocked the other ladies and Jiang Jingyan, who were even more stunned.

This...this...An Zhiqing is too...bad!

Jiang Jingyan was also stunned by An Meixue's thoroughness.

Shuying's eyes were red, as if she was extremely sad. Jiang Jingyan looked at Yang Shuying's face frequently, and the more he looked, the more he felt sorry for her.

Yang Shuying quickly came back to her senses and immediately said to the ladies, "Auntie, please help me call my parents. I always thought An Meixue was my best friend, but I didn't expect her to treat me like this."

"In fact, after I knew that she had taken all the things I gave to Jiang Zhiqing, I had no intention of asking her to return them. But today, not only did she want me to die, she also destroyed my family's ancestral wooden plaque. I don't know how to explain to my parents!"

"Since An Zhiqing has gone all out, I can only ask An Zhiqing to compensate me for all the things he had previously taken from me and the ancestral wooden plaque. I asked An Zhiqing to pass on several large cans of maltose, several large bags of dried fruits, longans, sugar and other good things on my behalf, as well as a large stack of food stamps that my second brother secretly gave me. I gave them all to An Zhiqing. In addition to this ancestral wooden plaque and the last medical expenses, I don't want too much. An Zhiqing just needs to compensate me 100 yuan."

When the hundred yuan came out of Shuying's mouth, everyone was stunned.

You have to know how much money one hundred yuan is here. Most people in the village don't even dare to think about it.

However, several aunties and Jiang Jingyan all thought that An Meixue had taken away a lot of good things from the daughter of the Yang family. The large bottles of maltose alone cost dozens of dollars.

That doesn't even include candies, dried fruits, and longans, not to mention good things like grain coupons and food stamps.

A lot of it must have been embezzled by others, so the honest daughter of the Yang family asked the female educated youth named An to pay so much compensation.

By the way, there is also the medical expenses for the last time that the daughter of the Yang family was injured. With this calculation, the compensation from the daughter of the Yang family is still very reasonable.

Compared to others who thought the compensation was reasonable, An Meixue was so angry that she almost vomited blood when she heard Yang Shuyingshizi asked her to pay a hundred yuan.

To be honest, she swallowed all of Yang Shuying's maltose. It was not the several cans that Yang Shuying said, but only two cans.

There were only a few small packages of dried fruits, sugar, and longans, and even fewer grain coupons and food coupons, not even the huge stack that Yang Shuying had described.

It's not worth a hundred bucks, not even thirty bucks.

An Meixue refused without hesitation: "Yang Shuying, stop cheating me! I can't give you a hundred dollars without taking so much from you!"

Unfortunately, no one believed what An Meixue said at this moment.

Yang Shuying turned his head and said to the ladies, "Aunties, if this is the case, I can only report it to the police. Aunties, can one of you notify my family and let my fourth brother borrow a car to go to the county town to report it to the police for me! If it weren't for you ladies today, I don't know if I can survive! I haven't forgotten that An Zhiqing actually wanted me to die!"

The ladies were all happy about it. Two of them stayed to accompany Shuying, while the others went down the mountain to inform the villagers and the parents of Yang's daughter.

When An Meixue heard that Yang Shuying was going to report to the police, she was so frightened that she felt dizzy and almost passed out.

Then I saw many old ladies coming down the mountain to inform the villagers.

An Meixue was now as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. Her eyes were full of fear and panic, and she couldn't stop those ladies.

I really want those ladies to tell the whole village about what happened today.

Not only will the good image and reputation she had established in the past be destroyed, but the fact that she secretly instigated Yang Shuying to pursue Jiang Ge and took all of Yang Shuying's things for herself will be confirmed.

Even the whole village would know that she stole Yang Shuying's wooden sign and caused Yang Shuying to die.

An Meixue almost couldn't stand steadily for a moment, her face turned pale, and she didn't dare to think about what to do next.

An Meixue hurriedly said, "Yang Shuying, I will compensate you, but you are not allowed to report to the police! Hurry up and let those ladies come back!"

Although Jiang Jingyan hated An Meixue for lying to her behind her back, she still pretended to be gentle to approach him.

But after all, the two of them had known each other since childhood, and An Meixue was usually nice to him, so he still had some soft-heartedness towards An Meixue.

The two men repeatedly asked Yang Shuying not to report to the police, and they would compensate her 100 yuan when she went down the mountain to the educated youth center.

Yang Shuying knew that the original male protagonist would not leave An Meixue alone, saying that the old ladies have their own feet to walk, and she cannot control where the old ladies go.

And she has to get the compensation money first.

As for not reporting to the police, it was impossible. By the time those ladies went to inform her mother, An Meixue's "good reputation" would probably have spread along the way.

After the ladies came down the mountain, most of the villagers in Hongyang Village were still resting in the fields or working.

A few gossipy aunties couldn't control their mouths at all and told people from the same village along the way what happened in the back mountain.

"Oh, I never thought that it was the educated youth surnamed An who secretly instigated the daughter of the Yang family to pursue the educated youth Jiang. She also told the daughter of the Yang family that she was the educated youth Jiang who was trying to fend off other men and that Jiang was her sister. She said that she particularly wanted the daughter of the Yang family to be her sister-in-law. You can tell how well this educated youth hid her true feelings. You can't judge a person by his appearance!"

“Is this true or false?”

"Is this true? I heard it with my own ears!"

"And more, the daughter of the Yang family gave so many good things to her lover, including several large cans of maltose, sugar, dried fruits, grain coupons, and food coupons, all for free," the old lady boasted, and then continued, "Guess what happened in the end, all these things were tricked into the hands of the female educated youth named An, who kept them all. The daughter of the Yang family found out after asking the educated youth Jiang."

"Oh my God! My goodness, how much is this worth! Yang Baozhu and his daughter Feng Guifang are really good at squandering money, and the female educated youth surnamed An is not a good person either. She is capable of doing such a shameless thing!"

"These are not the most infuriating things. The female educated youth surnamed An pretends to be polite and gentle on the surface, but you don't know the truth. Last time, the daughter of the Yang family went to some dilapidated temple with the female educated youth surnamed An and hit her head. She bled a lot. It turned out that it was all done by the female educated youth surnamed An. Just now, the female educated youth surnamed An also robbed the daughter of the Yang family of the valuable ancestral things that she had been wearing. This female educated youth even wanted the daughter of the Yang family to die!"

"Oh my God, you are not lying to me, are you? Is this female educated youth surnamed An so vicious?"

The villagers could barely tolerate the first two, but the last one involved murder. Not only was the villager who was talking to the old lady shocked, but all the other families nearby were also shocked.

Before they finished talking about this, several other ladies continued to spread the news of An Meixue's "deeds" along the way. Now almost everyone was planting winter wheat in the fields, and they were not far away, just separated by a field.

It didn't take much effort for the news to spread from person to person, and everyone in the village knew about An Meixue's deeds, including her attempt to kill the daughter of the Yang family.

All of a sudden, the entire Hongyangshe Village and the educated youth who had just come out of the educated youth point to plant winter wheat were all excited.

Even the village chief, several production team leaders and their families were stunned and could not believe it.

If this is really true, then An Zhiqing is extremely vicious.

The daughter of the Yang family is so unlucky.

They used to say that the daughter of Yang family grew up crooked, but it turns out that she didn't grow up crooked but was framed by people in the city. Now this female educated youth named An in the city wants the daughter of Yang family to die?

Oh my God, how could this happen?

Thanks to the gossip of a few old ladies, the news spread quickly among the villagers.

Before these ladies arrived at the Yang family's fields to inform Yang Baozhu's family, Yang's father and his family knew that the educated youth surnamed An not only designed to ruin her daughter's (younger sister) reputation, but also deceived her daughter into giving her many good things, and even wanted to kill her (younger sister).

This is too much.

Everyone in the Yang family, including the father and son, mother Yang, and two sisters-in-law, were all shocked.

Yang's mother was so worried that something might happen to her daughter that she ignored her work in the fields and hurried to the back mountain.

Father Yang, the eldest brother, the fourth brother and the two sisters-in-law had no intention of working, so they hurriedly followed Mother Yang and ran to the back mountain.

"Mr. Yang, your daughter is still in the back mountain and is doing fine. Several people from Mr. Wang's family are accompanying your daughter. By the way, your daughter asked me to tell her to let your fourth son borrow a car to go to the county town to report to the police first!" The gossiping aunts were late.

At this time, Yang's eldest brother and Yang Jianzhang heard that the educated youth named An wanted to kill their younger sister, and their eyes turned red with anger. Even Yang's father, an honest man, blushed with anger.

Father Yang immediately said, "Old Four, go to the village chief's house and borrow a bicycle, and go to the county town to report to the police immediately!"

Mother Yang also hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, yes, Lao Si, hurry up and report to the police!"

Yang Jianzhang hurried to the village chief's house.

The village chief's entire family had heard about the young lady of the Yang family, and they all felt sympathy for the Yang family. How could they be unwilling to lend the car? The village chief didn't even need his consent. The village chief's wife agreed first and let the fourth son of the Yang family use the car.

The Yang family didn't find their daughter in the back mountain, but they found her at the educated youth center.

An Meixue and Jiang Jingyan took out all their savings and finally managed to scrape together a hundred yuan to give to Yang Shuying.

Not long after Yang Shuying took it, An Meixue screamed and was thrown to the ground and beaten.

An Meixue's strength was no match for the country folk, and it was three against one. An Meixue had her hair pulled and her face slapped. She screamed in pain and begged for help.

Jiang Jingyan, who was standing by, wanted to help, but was beaten up by Yang's father and eldest brother.

Shuying was just feeling gloating over the fact that An Meixue and the original male protagonist were beaten up, but when she saw that the ones who beat An Meixue and the original male protagonist were her eldest brother, mother, and her two sisters-in-law, she was stunned.

He hurried forward to stop them: "Dad, Mom, Big Brother, Sister-in-law, please stop fighting, I'm fine!"

Several ladies nearby also helped to persuade him.

Although she felt very happy seeing An Meixue and Jiang Jingyan being beaten up, what's more, the original owner's life was in An Meixue's hands.

No matter how badly the Yang family beat the two of them, she would not sympathize with them, but she decided to report to the police. If she didn't give An Meixue a severe beating this time, she would not be doing justice to the original owner.

But she was more worried that the Yang family would beat someone up. What would happen if they were taken to the police station together?

So Shuying was busy taking care of Yang's father, Yang's eldest brother, Yang's mother and two sisters-in-law.

Hearing the voice of their young lady, Yang's father, mother, eldest brother and two sisters-in-law did not bother to deal with the two of them, and hurriedly got up to see if their young lady (younger sister) was okay.

Mother Yang even touched her daughter Hun all over her body, and saw a red mark on her neck. She was relieved that everything else was fine.

Yang's father, Yang's eldest brother and his two sisters-in-law also breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as my little sister is alright, it's fine.

The Yang family's melee just now attracted a lot of onlookers.

Some people who don't know what's happening behind the scenes want to come forward to help.

Yang's mother simply sat at the entrance of the educated youth center and howled: "Oh my God, how could there be such a vicious person!"

"Forget about you coaxing my family's good things, but how did my daughter offend you that you, a female educated youth, want to kill her?"

"What?"

"What?"

After hearing what Yang's mother said, several villagers who wanted to persuade her widened their eyes in shock. Before they could ask Yang's mother, many villagers who knew the situation had already told them what happened.

After everyone knew the truth, they all despised An Meixue for her double-faced character, and kept looking at Yang Shuying's face in surprise. Needless to say, they didn't recognize that such a good-looking girl was actually the daughter of Yang Baozhu.

How come this girl is getting prettier and whiter?

An Meixue has had a sense of superiority since she was reborn. She never thought that one day she would be pointed at and criticized by others, feeling ashamed and angry to death.

Just now, she was pulled by her hair and slapped in the face by Yang's mother and her two sisters-in-law. An Meixue felt great pain all over her body and her eyes were full of hatred. She only hated herself for underestimating Yang Shuying and letting her outwit her.

But the only thing that made her satisfied was that she destroyed the wooden sign of Yang Shuying, and she would never be able to become beautiful again.

Jiang Jingyan was lucky enough, he was a man and he could withstand the force and stand up soon to help An Meixue up.

Just as An Meixue was about to curse Yang Shuying, she heard someone say, "Public security, the person is here! The person is here!"

When An Meixue and the others heard that the police were coming, they felt dizzy and wanted to pass out immediately. They didn't care about the pain. Their faces were swollen like pigs. They said to Yang Shuying with hatred on their faces: "Yang Shuying, you took a hundred yuan from me, and you said you wouldn't report it to the police!"

Yang's mother first said angrily, "What? You bullied my daughter, and you didn't allow her to report to the police?" Then she asked Yang Jianzhang, "Fourth Brother, why did you come so quickly?"

In fact, Yang Jianzhang was able to find the police thanks to a minor incident in the neighboring village. Not long after Yang Jianzhang rode out on his bike, he ran into several police officers, who immediately took him back to the village. With the help of villagers, he soon found the educated youth site.

Yang Shuying ignored An Meixue and said to the police officers brought by Fourth Brother Yang: "Comrades, I called the police!"

"Little sister, are you okay?" Yang Jianzhang felt relieved when he saw his little sister standing in front of him.

Shuying told Yang Sige that it was okay, pinched her thigh, her eyes immediately turned red, and she told several public security comrades everything An Meixue had done to her.

Including instigating her to pursue her fiancé, tricking her into eating up the good things she gave to others, and last time she went to the temple, she was pushed against the wall and hit on the head. This time in the back mountain, he even told her to die in order to steal her things.

Shuying's words were very sharp, and several aunts were still standing by to testify for Shuying. The Yang family listened to what their youngest daughter (younger sister) said, and their faces turned red with anger.

An Meixue was so anxious and desperate that she knew she would lose her good reputation if she went to jail.

The police officers had never imagined that such a terrible thing would happen in the countryside. When they heard how the educated female youth plotted to ruin the reputation of the country girl, robbed the girl of her things, and even wanted to murder her, they were all furious.

One of the police officers even recognized Yang Shuying. It was this comrade who had rescued the child from the human traffickers last time. The police officer had a particularly good impression of Yang Shuying and would never doubt her words.

Finally, in front of everyone, An Meixue was forcibly taken away by several police officers. This incident really caused a complete uproar in the entire Hongyang Society.

You have to know that whether you report to the police or are taken to the county police, it is a big deal.

Generally, once you go to jail, you will have no good reputation when you come out, and the villagers will spit at you!
