Chapter 34 Guagua, you beast!
Wang Xiaolian walked out of the room, ignoring the various expressions in the room.
She still had tears in her eyes, but her expression was very determined, and she didn't look like a weak person.
Originally her heart was filled with sadness and fear, but when Wang Xiaolian raised her eyes inadvertently, she saw a girl about her age in the crowd, and her eyes met hers.
What surprised her was that there was neither contempt nor any other embarrassing meaning in the other person's eyes.
On the contrary, when he met her eyes, he was stunned for a moment, then opened his mouth and said two words silently.
come on.
She understood.
At this moment, a surge of courage from the outside world, like the wind that night, blew straight through her skin and into her heart.
Wang Xiaolian knew that this "come on" did not contain any prejudice, but was purely a silent support for her courageous act of standing up.
I will.
Wang Xiaolian thought to herself.
Since she has already stood up, she has made up her mind to stand in front of the Wang family and solve this absurd problem on her own.
"Master, uncles, aunts," she said calmly, standing in the center. "This matter is caused by me. I will solve it myself."
Wang Xiaolian's mother's face turned very ugly from the moment she saw her daughter come out. Seeing this, she scolded:
"What are you doing out here? This matter will naturally be handled by our elders. Go back to the house!"
Wang Xiaolian looked up at her mother and saw that although she looked very angry, her eyes were actually full of heartache and concern, and her voice couldn't help but choke up again.
She stopped looking at her family and turned around to look at Zhang Xiaowei, who had not said a word since he followed his family here.
"Zhang Xiaowei, you really don't know how this baby came to be in my belly? Also, did you really just find out today that I was dating someone else while we were dating?"
As soon as these words were spoken, both the Zhang and Wang families, as well as the people watching the excitement outside, were all completely ignited.
What does Wang Xiaolian mean by this?
Didn’t they say that Zhang Xiaowei came to deliver fish to his father-in-law’s house today, and that’s when he heard the Wang family members in the yard saying that Wang Xiaolian was pregnant?
How come Wang Xiaolian said that Zhang Xiaowei had known about this for a long time?
So is the baby she is pregnant with Zhang Xiaowei's?
Wang Xiaolian's questioning overturned the previous negotiations between the two families and also aroused many questions in everyone's minds.
We are all smart people, how could we not know that there must be something even more unknown hidden behind these words?
When Zhang Xiaowei was asked this question by Wang Xiaolian, his originally numb expression turned into panic.
But he covered it up well, and immediately turned into an innocent look: "Xiao Lian, what do you mean by that?"
Old Mrs. Zhang said directly and sarcastically, "Xiaowei, don't talk to that bastard! She'll start to blame you!"
Wang Xiaolian's mother glared at her: "What nonsense are you talking about, old woman? Say it again if you dare! I'll tear your mouth apart!"
Old Mrs. Zhang was furious: "I was just saying what's wrong. My Xiaowei has suffered such a great injustice. Our Zhang family has been deceived by your family like this, and I, an old woman, can't even say a word? You dare to say this to me? I will go to the commune to report your family tomorrow!"
Uncle Zhang on the side quickly tried to smooth things over: "Alright, alright, since the child has something to say, we, as the elders, should stop arguing for now."
He really regretted coming here.
Ever since Wang Xiaolian came forward, he inexplicably felt that this matter might not be that simple.
Uncle Zhang glanced at Zhang Xiaowei, whose face had turned pale since Wang Xiaolian came out. It was obvious that this kid was feeling guilty.
In the end, Old Lady Zhang still gave face to Uncle Zhang. She snorted coldly, turned her head and said nothing.
As for Wang Xiaolian's mother, she was filled with hatred, but she also knew that her family was not in the right, so she naturally decided to quit while she was ahead.
She was afraid. She was so afraid that Old Lady Zhang would really go and complain.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Wang Xiaolian in the center.
Wang Xiaolian was no longer afraid now. She still looked at Zhang Xiaowei without a trace of warmth in her eyes.
"Four months ago, you came to my house to deliver something. When you were leaving, my family asked me to walk you part of the way. On the way, you told me that you wanted me to go to the old land temple over in the valley the next evening, saying that you had something for me personally. Did you tell me, in front of me, that this was true?"
She spoke the first half of her words calmly, but her voice suddenly rose in the last sentence.
Perhaps it was because he was too shocked, Zhang Xiaowei was so frightened that he had no time to think and nodded subconsciously.
"Okay, as long as you admit it." Wang Xiaolian nodded. "The next day after dinner, I happily went to the Earth God Temple, wondering what you were going to give me."
Her voice was faint: "In the end, I went to the land temple and waited for a long time. It was dark, but I didn't see you coming. But at that time, I still believed that you were just being held back by something. Maybe you had unfinished work in the fields, or maybe you were busy with other things..."
Zhang Xiaowei opened his mouth: "Xiaolian, I..."
Wang Xiaolian interrupted him: "Don't say anything, I'm afraid if you open your mouth, I won't be able to help but slap you."
Xiang Yao, who was standing at the door, raised his eyebrows when he heard this.
She likes this girl.
However, although Xiang Yao liked it, the Zhang family was not happy.
As soon as Wang Xiaolian said this, Old Lady Zhang jumped out: "What's your attitude? Why don't you let my grandson speak? Who do you think you are?"
Wang Xiaolian looked over coldly and said, "I'm going to finish what I need to say. Once I'm done, you'll naturally know why."
Old Lady Zhang's cloudy eyes were filled with disdain. "Hmph, you little bastard, you're already pregnant with someone else's child, what else can you say? You didn't hide in the house, but actually dared to run out. It's really embarrassing! When I was young, people like you would have been thrown into the pig cage!"
Wang Xiaolian's mother slammed the table and said, "You are the one who is disgraced. Your whole family is disgraced! You black-hearted old woman, when you were young, when you were young, why didn't you get drowned in a pig cage?"
Old Lady Zhang: "Oh my, look at this, look at this, the Wang family is so shameless, not only did they cause this scandal themselves, but they are also scolding our family! Everyone, please give us some justice!"
The two women started arguing again, and Mr. Wang felt very powerless watching this farce.
Uncle Zhang was a little bit at a loss of persuasion at this moment. He had really tried very hard, but Old Lady Zhang's voice was too loud, drowning out his gentle persuasion...
Just as the two sides were about to quarrel over this trivial matter, a very clear voice came from the crowd at the gate -
"Mrs. Zhang, you're not interrupting me and trying to silence me because you know the truth, are you?"
Old Lady Zhang looked over to find the person speaking, and saw that it was a young girl. She was about to speak when the girl interrupted her:
"We don't want to listen to you quarreling here. We want to listen to Xiaolian say what she wants to say. If you, the Zhang family, don't feel guilty, just shut up and listen. Uncles and aunts, don't you agree?"
Her voice was so inspiring that before anyone knew it, she had carried everyone's emotions along.
The woman who had just collected the peanuts chimed in immediately, "That's right, why are you always interrupting? What else is there to say?"
The person who spoke was Xiang Yao.
She originally wanted to eat melon quietly, and in her heart she was always encouraging this girl named Xiaolian.
But this old lady Zhang was so annoying that she almost wanted to find a piece of tape to stick her mouth shut.
Xiang Yao was the first to speak out, and immediately the others were also mobilized and said:
"Yes, Xiaolian has already stood up to speak, let her speak, don't interrupt!"
"We'll just listen to Xiaolian!"
"I'd say Zhang Xiaowei is pretty shameless. He made an appointment with someone's daughter to go to the Earth God Temple, but he didn't even show up!"
"That's right, I think he's just a coward!"
Most of the people who came to watch the fun were Wang's neighbors. Although they gathered here for the purpose of watching the fun, they had watched Wang Xiaolian grow up, so of course they were more or less biased towards the Wang family at this moment.
It would have been fine if the Zhang family just came to return the gifts, but they even charged the Wang family for the money to repair the roof and walls of their home, which had long made them dissatisfied.
Old Mrs. Zhang couldn't win against so many people with just her words, so she had to stop and quiet down a little.
Wang Xiaolian pursed her lips and continued speaking.
"It was already dark by then, and I thought I shouldn't wait any longer. Otherwise, my family would be worried if they didn't see me. I was about to go home when someone showed up."
It was too dark at that time, and Wang Xiaolian couldn't see the faces of people in the land temple. She felt panic for a moment, and she asked in a trembling voice, "Brother Xiaowei, is that you?"
The man gently took her hand and said "hmm" in a calm voice: "It's me."
Wang Xiaolian recognized that the voice was indeed Zhang Xiaowei's, and her heart was relieved a little. Instead, she felt the slight uneasiness and sweetness of a girl being in the same room with her boyfriend.
Zhang Xiaowei held and caressed her hand, and she wanted to ask him what he wanted to give her, but the atmosphere was so good that she didn't ask.
On the way, there seemed to be some movement outside the land temple, and Zhang Xiaowei suggested going out to take a look.
When he came back again, his actions became more bold. Wang Xiaolian thought that they were already in a relationship and would soon become a couple, so she reluctantly got involved with him.
In fact, there are many such things at that time. The spiritual world of adult men and women is already lacking. At night, there are many things happening behind the firewood pile and in the woods.
But what Wang Xiaolian didn't expect was that when "Zhang Xiaowei" left the land temple first, she actually heard the footsteps of two people in the silence.
"I was panicking and confused at the time, so I had to deceive myself by saying that it was Zhang Xiaowei's friend who happened to find this place and we just ran into each other outside..."
Wang Xiaolian tried her best to control the trembling of her voice and made public what everyone considered a "scandal".
She was just a young girl who was not even twenty years old. She encountered such a strange and bizarre thing and of course she didn't dare tell her family.
She didn't even dare to imagine what the consequences would be if this matter were exposed to the public.
She had no choice. She could neither give a reason to cancel the engagement nor accept Zhang Xiaowei's advances.
This dragged on, allowing Zhang Xiaowei to continue coming to her house, but she always kept her head down, no longer talking to him or looking him in the eye.
But who would have thought that she would get pregnant just that time...
It's not that she can't say who the biological father of the child is, the truth is, she herself doesn't know...
She was determined to let everyone see Zhang Xiaowei's true face.
Even if, even if she couldn't make a living in the future, she would still give it her all!
The scene was silent, and everyone's eyes unconsciously turned to Zhang Xiaowei.
Zhang Xiaowei looked timid, with his head down and no words.
His attitude made everyone understand that Wang Xiaolian was not lying and everything she said was true.
At this moment, Xiang Yao, like everyone present, was shocked.
Pregnancy before marriage is actually not uncommon in this era. It is common in books, movies and TV shows.
But Zhang Xiaowei, while being a good son-in-law, asked someone to rape his girlfriend?
He actually kept pretending, making others think he was a good guy?
What kind of beast could do such a thing?
Wang Xiaolian's mother couldn't help it. After a suppressed cry, she stood up, picked up the teacup on the table and smashed it at Zhang Xiaowei.
The old lady of the Zhang family sighed a few times, her triangular eyes rolling around, but she could no longer stop the anger of the Wang family.
Wang Xiaolian's mother let out a shrill howl—
"You beast!"
