That's pretty shocking!
Instead of being a proper wife, they eagerly want to be a concubine, a position that seems glamorous but actually lacks dignity and status!
This is really baffling!
Her parents didn't force her to do this, so why is she so upset?
With the current reputation of Changna Village, it would be very easy for Guo Jiumei to marry into a good family, but she could only marry into farming families!
It's all about matching social status, and Guo Jiumei's family isn't well-off, so finding a wealthy man is unlikely!
In rural areas, as long as people aren't so poor they don't have a place to live, or so lazy they can't get out of bed, they can still manage to get by!
Guo Jiumei clearly didn't want to live a life of poverty, otherwise she wouldn't have chosen this path!
To put it nicely, she was someone's concubine; to put it bluntly, even the maids and servants below her had a higher status than her!
well!
There's nothing we can do if someone can't see things clearly. We can just enjoy the show and move on.
The Guo family was left there furious, threatening to sever ties with Guo Jiu Mei!
They can't afford to lose face like this!
But deep down, they still hoped that Guo Jiumei could bring some money back to them!
Su Nanxi was speechless. Guo Jiumei had never given up on her dream of becoming a young mistress!
Zhao Jinhua was a second wife, and her status seemed quite high. Now that she's fallen from grace, didn't Guo Jiumei see that?
Even knowing that the road ahead is difficult, they still insist on taking the plunge. They feel they will never be satisfied if they don't try!
The road is full of thorns, and it's not easy to walk. But once you've made a choice, there's no turning back. You have to crawl to the end, even if you cry!
After Guo Jiumei's incident, it caused more trouble for Village Chief Liu.
This matter had a significant impact, and the village chief was worried that it would have a negative influence on future generations, fearing that some might continue down a path of no return. So, he held another collective meeting.
He criticized Guo Laoqi, analyzed the pros and cons of the matter, and finally warned the villagers not to have such unrealistic ideas!
Guo Laoqi felt wronged. He never intended to send his daughter to be someone's concubine, but it happened. No one would believe him. The village chief's words were absolutely right: "If a son is not taught, it is the father's fault!"
The same goes for daughters; they need to be taught!
So he could only nod and admit his mistake!
He also knew that being someone's concubine was a shameful thing, and who would sell their daughter to someone else to play with unless absolutely necessary!
In the past few decades, no one in their village has ever heard of a daughter becoming a concubine. He really stole the first place, and he has truly lost face beyond measure!
Guo Laoqi didn't dare to blame the village chief for bringing up the matter. He knew the village chief was only doing it for the good of the village. Besides, how could such scandalous gossip be contained? It would probably be known overnight!
Their village will get better and better in the future, and we must try our best to control and prevent anything that has a negative impact from happening!
The Guo family doesn't only have daughters, they also have granddaughters. We need to think long-term. It's one thing if one daughter is ruined!
The village chief did the right thing. When something happens, he immediately tries to find a solution and thinks far ahead!
When the villagers gather together, the atmosphere is different; most of them listen and strongly support the village chief's actions!
That was the end of it.
Another thing happened in the village, and that was about Chen Ahua's family.
Old Mrs. Chen used to try to ignore everything Chen Ahua and her family did, but recently she heard from somewhere that Chen Ahua's family was doing better and better. Oh no, she suddenly felt resentful and started causing trouble!
He completely forgot that they had severed ties and attempted to regain control of Chen Ahua and her family of three.
They rushed to the place where Chen Ahua and her family lived, broke down the door, and searched the place without saying a word, as if the government were ransacking the house, leaving no corner unchecked!
Anything edible or usable that they saw was put into pre-prepared bags. Anyone who dared to stop them was hit hard with a wooden stick!
They didn't say a word, they just kept scavenging!
They made the house, which already had nothing, even emptier, almost completely empty!
At the time, only Tao was at home. She stayed home to look after the house and hang things out to dry. She didn't dare to go out because the walls of their house weren't safe!
She thought it would be another peaceful day, and she was thinking about cooking dinner soon, waiting for her daughter and husband to come home, but she didn't expect to be greeted by an uninvited guest first!
When Tao saw that it was Granny Chen, she was first surprised, and then went to stop her. But Granny Chen looked old, but she was very strong. It was unlikely that she could stop her, at least not Tao!
Tao was rather thin and weak, no match for the large and strong Old Woman Chen. Moreover, the other woman was ruthless and didn't care about life or death when she beat people. In addition, Old Woman Chen used to be Tao's mother-in-law, and the fear of being oppressed for a long time was etched into Tao's bones. Now that they were facing each other, she couldn't help but be a little scared!
Having succeeded, Old Mrs. Chen arrogantly told Tao, "From now on, whatever good things you have, bring them to me first! No matter how you sever ties, I am still the third son's mother, and you should all be filial to me!"
Still seemingly not satisfied, she scolded Tao Shi again, "You're a jinx! You must have whispered something in my ear that made the third son afraid to bring me anything as a gift! You're a hen that can't lay eggs, all you do is cluck, you can't do anything right! If I find out you've corrupted my son again, I'll beat you to death! You ungrateful dog!"
Carrying the bag, he walked away cursing and swearing. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly turned back and yelled at Tao, "You heartless wretch! Hand over the silver! Why don't you hand it over now that you have money? What kind of daughter-in-law are you! You have no manners at all. I really don't know what the third son saw in you! Go! Give me ten taels of silver!"
Tao was filled with sorrow, helplessness, and despair, tears streaming down her face. She didn't know what to do. She watched helplessly as Old Mrs. Chen carried away their belongings. Little did she know that Old Mrs. Chen had something even more shameless up her sleeve!
Ask her for money?
And they asked for ten taels right off the bat!
Why doesn't that old hag just fly to the sky!
Do you really think money falls from the sky?
They worked so hard for so long and only managed to save one or two taels of silver. If they had ten taels of silver, they would be laughing in their sleep!
This old woman is really going too far! Tao was furious and didn't care about anything else. She retorted directly, "Have you forgotten that we have nothing to do with you anymore? Even if we have money, it's none of your business! You still dare to ask for ten taels? If you're so capable, why don't you just fly to the sky!"
Old Mrs. Chen thought that Tao would be like before, not daring to talk back to her, and would obediently hand over the money. She was even smugly thinking that she would buy some meat to eat after getting the money. But what she got was not money!
They've gotten so bold, daring to talk back to her!
If we don't teach them a lesson, they'll turn on us!
"Mom! What's wrong? Are you alright? Don't scare me!"
