Chapter 233 The world is cruel.
Aunt He saw all these things, and it would be a lie to say that she was not sad.
Yu Tingwan paused and could not hear: "Aunt didn't make a fuss?"
Aunt He's eyes faded.
It was a joke. Looking around, the only one who could speak her mind was Yao.
She had been holding some things in her heart for a long time.
There was no concealment.
"Your uncle is not stupid. Even if he feels itchy, he knows his limits. He only dares to chop wood. How can he take care of others in bed?"
Yu Tingwan suddenly realized.
That's right.
Uncle He is the most capable of expressing his feelings.
Although he is a man, Aunt He is the real head of the He family.
If something really happens, the sons and daughters-in-law will naturally help Aunt He.
The old lady Lu was miserable in her later years, without the care of the younger generation. The living example is right in front of him.
He won't be stupid.
"What's more..."
Aunt He pointed to Widow Jiang's family: "She is also a person with a miserable life."
Aunt He sighed.
"After her husband died, her parents-in-law disliked her for only giving birth to a daughter, and simply abandoned her. If they were not afraid of being gossiped by outsiders, they would have driven the mother and daughter away. She is young and pretty. I heard that her parents came a few days ago to take her away. They were thinking of taking her back and remarrying to get another betrothal gift."
"How could she agree? She was even more reluctant to give up her four-year-old daughter."
"Many men were tempted and wanted to spend money to buy a night with her, but she didn't agree."
She shook her head.
"She is also smart. She saw that your uncle had the intention but didn't have the courage, so..."
The rest of the words were not said, but Yu Tingwan understood.
Aunt He is the most hard-mouthed but soft-hearted. If Uncle He didn't help, she would also lend a hand.
Otherwise, they would have come to the door long ago and made the widow look bad.
Aunt He sighed, "I finally made it."
"Keyao girl."
She smiled and raised her hand to push the girl's messy hair behind her ears.
"You don't know, women have the hardest time in this world. The husband's family doesn't value her, and her parents' family tries to squeeze out the last bit of her value. The law can't control it. Since ancient times, men and women have married at the behest of their parents and matchmakers. Without anyone to protect us, the world will eat us. It will swallow us women up without leaving anything."
"If we women continue to make things difficult for other women, we will really have no way out."
"Do you think she is willing to say good things to your uncle, the old man?"
"Do you think she is willing to be shameless?"
"She now takes some laundry work. In the middle of winter, her hands are cracked and frostbitten. She didn't sell her body, but a group of stinky men rushed to give her rice and food. Why didn't she accept it? In order to survive,
she can only bend her spine and shake her head to beg for mercy." "I look down on her flirting, but I respect her as a mother."
"If I were in that situation, I would probably be the same."
Seeing that the girl didn't speak, she realized that the topic had strayed off track unconsciously, and she had talked too much, and she had been restless since she entered the house.
Aunt He slapped her thigh.
"Look at me, I'm confused, why am I telling you this? You don't understand."
If you haven't experienced it, you won't know the sufferings of the world.
As she said, she looked at Yu Tingwan's hands.
After being wiped with the plaster, it was white and tender, and the calluses on it were gone, so there was no way to see what it used to look like.
"Auntie also hopes that you will never understand in this life."
Yu Tingwan followed her line of sight.
For a moment, I didn't know what it felt like.
She doesn't understand?
What a pity.
She understands.
Mother also understands.
The girl smiled lightly, without revealing any of the hardships of the past.
The past is over, and everything is getting better.
What she has to do now is to look forward to the future.
As she was talking, she heard a noise outside.
Then there were the sounds of ping-pong, dirty curses, women's screams, and children's loud cries.
The sound came from Widow Jiang's house.
Aunt He secretly said that it was not good.
"I'm afraid something bad has happened. I'll go out and take a look."
Unlike the quiet alley on the Wei family's side, this place is more lively.
The geographical location is good. It is the most prosperous area in Ze County. The alley leads to the main street, and there are many medical clinics and restaurants.
The alley was surrounded by people. Many people who buy vegetables on the street heard the noise and ran to see.
"Don't you want to go with me? You stinky woman!"
"Your parents took five taels of silver from me! You are mine. I don't think you are second-hand goods, so you dare to think of me?"
The lame man showed a fierce look on his face, pulled Widow Jiang's arm and dragged her out.
Widow Jiang's face was very cold and tried to struggle.
"Let go."
"After all, I am a woman of the Jiang family. I have my parents-in-law above me. It's not their turn to buy and sell."
The lame man was happy.
He was in his forties and had two wives before, both of whom were beaten to death by him. If it weren't for the delicate skin of Widow Jiang, he would have taken action.
But now he can't bear to do it.
"What do you mean by deal? This is agreed by our elders. Even if the government comes, it can't interfere."
"Your own brother came to me and said he had a widowed sister who was lovely. I heard this and came to wait for you. After seeing you, I thought you were good, so I agreed to give you five taels."
His money didn't come from the wind.
"Your parents-in-law?"
"Why are you still in the dark? Your parents-
in-law have no objection at all. They divided the money with your parents and were very happy." "They are smarter than anyone else. They don't want their granddaughter anymore, so they let me take her away. They can sell your house later and sit and count the money. Pah. Do I look stupid? Raising someone else's offspring?"
"Come back with me, give me a few more sons, serve me honestly and dutifully, and I will definitely love you."
"In the future, you are not allowed to have any contact with these people, including this little bastard."
"If you see this little bastard behind my back, I will beat you to death."
After saying this, he didn't want to waste any more words.
Seeing that Widow Jiang was still struggling, he was so angry that his face turned blue. He whipped her twice with a rattan stick and carried her away.
Widow Jiang was in so much pain.
"Mom!"
"Let my mom go."
The girl with pigtails and who was cleaned up chased after him.
There were tears on her face, and she was obviously scared. But even so, she still rushed over and bit the lame man's leg.
The lame man kicked him away in pain.
"You blind little beast! Get out of here."
The child was weak to begin with, and was kicked away and fell heavily to the ground. He twitched in pain, curled up into a ball, and cried out.
"That's my mother, my mother!"
"You are a bad person."
"You are all bad people."
While crying, he crawled to his mother's side.
Yu Tingwan felt sour in her heart when she saw this scene.
What's more, it was Widow Jiang.
She was anxious and silent, her eyes were red.
That was the child she almost gave birth to. After her husband left, it was her life.
"Zhao Zhao!"
She was filled with grief: "I beg you, you hurt her. Let me go and see."
"I don't want to marry again, I just want to live with my daughter."
"Go to whoever took the betrothal money. If my mother took it, you can marry her."
These words made the people around sigh, but they were all pointing fingers.
"How unfilial."
"Her mother gave birth to her and raised her, how could she harm her?"
