Chapter 926: Drama of the Year
The woman said, "Don't listen to her nonsense. She is our daughter. She got angry with us because of a small matter and jumped off the carriage. We are so heartbroken to see her injured like this. Please get out of the way quickly. We have to take her to see a doctor."
The man replied in a gruff voice, "If you keep preventing us from taking our daughter to get treated, I'll kill you if anything happens to her!"
The onlookers saw that Xiao Xixi was indeed seriously injured. If treatment was delayed, no one could take the responsibility.
Seeing that everyone was showing signs of backing down again, Xiao Xixi's eyes turned red and she started crying on the spot.
"You want to marry me to a 70-year-old landlord as a concubine, just for the 10 taels of silver as a betrothal gift! I heard that the old landlord has a quirk and likes to torture women. He has tortured three concubines to death. I would rather die here than be tortured by him, wuwuwu!"
When everyone heard this, they immediately stopped walking.
The middle-aged couple didn't expect Xiao Xixi to come back with this trick. They were stunned at first, and then pretended to persuade her earnestly.
"My daughter, don't blame us for being cruel. We are really struggling to make ends meet. The ten taels of silver are not much, but they are enough for our family to live on for a while."
When the woman said this, she wiped away her tears in a hypocritical manner.
The man looked guilty, "We didn't expect that the old landlord actually liked to torture people. We missed it. Since my daughter doesn't want to get married, forget it. At most, our family will tighten their belts and endure for a while. No matter how hard it is, we can't let our daughter go to hell."
The woman cried and nodded in agreement: "Yes, let's go home now, go home."
The two of them wanted to help Xiao Xixi leave again.
The onlookers were quite moved when they saw the couple take the initiative to give in, and were preparing to make way for them.
Then I heard Xiao Xixi speak again.
"I won't go back! Don't think I don't know that my family is not in dire straits. The reason you want to sell me to that old landlord is that you want to use the betrothal money to marry my brother. When I go back with you, you will definitely sell me again!"
Everyone was stunned again.
Huh? There's a sequel!
They stopped again and continued to watch the show.
The middle-aged couple was so angry that they wanted to knock Xiao Xixi unconscious and carry her away immediately.
But with so many people watching around, even if the two of them knew martial arts, they might not be able to escape unscathed.
Moreover, this is an official road, so there will be officials passing by.
If you take direct action, it will easily attract the police.
There was no other choice, the middle-aged couple could only grit their teeth and continue to act with Xiao Xixi.
The two men swore to the heavens, promising that they would treat their daughter well and would never sell her to the old landlord as a concubine.
Since they don't believe in ghosts or gods, they dare to utter any vicious oaths.
Seeing this, the onlookers began to believe that the couple was telling the truth.
Some people even started to help persuade Xiao Xixi.
"Girl, just go back with your parents. Trust them this time. After all, they are your biological parents. How can there be parents in this world who don't love their children?!"
Xiao Xixi seemed to be touched in a sore spot and suddenly burst into tears.
"But they are not my biological parents at all!
I was actually picked up by them.
They never treated me as their own daughter and beat and scolded me every day.
I didn’t have enough to eat or warm clothes at home, and no one cared about me when I was sick. I almost died several times.
What's even more abominable is that this man actually wants to defile me!"
As she spoke, she raised her hand and pointed at the man, her tear-stained face filled with grief, anger and despair.
"If I go back with them, I will definitely be tortured to death by them!"
Everyone widened their eyes.
There is such a thing?!
The middle-aged couple's expressions were completely frozen.
Especially that man, he almost jumped up and started swearing.
When did I ever want to defile you? Don't spit blood on me!
The man gritted his teeth and resisted the urge to curse, trying hard to defend himself.
"You are our biological daughter. How could I do that to you? You must have misunderstood."
Xiao Xixi retorted loudly.
"Don't try to trick me!
My brother told me these things. He told me in person that you are not my biological parents.
I am an orphan you picked up.
He also said that not only was I adopted, but he was also the son of my mother and the boy next door named Wang.
Because my father has a health problem and cannot have children!"
Everyone was in an uproar.
Oh wow! There is such a reversal!
The drama of the year!
So exciting!
The woman didn't know how to act anymore and could only keep denying.
"I'm not, I didn't, don't talk nonsense."
The man's face turned green.
He never expected that things would turn out like this!
Xiao Xixi looked at him with tears in her eyes and spoke sincerely.
"Dad, even though you're a bastard worse than an animal, at least you gave me food to eat, so I'll just call you dad.
If you are still a man, divorce this woman immediately.
Otherwise, when you die in the future, all your property will be taken over by the son of Mr. Wang next door."
The man looked at the woman beside him.
The woman shook her head vigorously: "I didn't cheat, I didn't, I'm innocent, please believe me!"
Xiao Xixi advised earnestly.
"Mom, now that things have come to this, please stop hiding it.
My brother really said everything!
He said that every time you used the excuse of going to the river to wash clothes, you were actually having an affair with Mr. Wang next door.
Sometimes you even help your neighbor, Mr. Wang, sew clothes and mend socks.
You two have a great relationship.
You even complained quietly that it would be great if my father died, as long as he died, you could live with the guy next door."
She described it so realistically, even down to the details, that it sounded as if it were true.
Even the man couldn't help but look at the woman, his eyes full of suspicion.
Could it be that this woman really went out to have an affair?
The woman's eyes widened and she yelled, "When did I ever say something like that?!"
She immediately said to the man beside her: "Wake up, don't be fooled by this girl, she doesn't tell the truth!"
The man suddenly came to his senses and cursed himself for being too careless. He almost got fooled by this girl.
Xiao Xixi: "My brother told me that. He would never lie to me."
The man couldn't hold it in any longer and shouted angrily, "You are talking nonsense. You don't even have a brother!"
Xiao Xixi was shocked: "So you already knew that my brother is not my brother. He is actually the son of Mr. Wang next door. You don't have a son at all! You knew you were cuckolded, but you were still willing to live with my mother?"
The onlookers also expressed strong shock.
I didn't expect that there would be such a patient man in the world!
Faced with everyone's pointing and criticizing, the middle-aged couple had no way to defend themselves.
