She had been used to the life of a city dweller since she was a child, so how could she be willing to stay in the countryside? She wouldn't want to do that even if they killed her.
She didn't even dare to think about getting a place in the village Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University. Firstly, her grades were not good, and secondly, those old educated youth didn't even get a chance, so how could she possibly get one?
But she had no other channels to go to the city, so she could only put all her hopes on her parents in Shanghai, hoping that they could find a way to get her there.
So now Zeng Guiyun is using this to threaten Su Tiantian, which is really hitting the weak spot.
"Did your mother really say that?" Su Nan curled the corner of his lips, and Wan Yu was speechless. His opinion of Zeng Guiyun's extreme quality had reached a new low.
In order to help her younger brother get married, Zeng Guiyun even put her own daughter behind.
"Yes, I really have no other choice, so I come to beg you." Su Tiantian pretended to wipe away her tears with her hands and looked at Su Nan calmly.
"But I really don't have any money. Zhou Rang is not in Sang'an County now. As an educated youth, you should know about this matter." Su Nan shrugged, indicating that he could do nothing to help.
In fact, she had money, quite a lot, because Zhou Rang kept most of his money with her.
But she wasn't a saint, so why should she help someone who had hurt her? Besides, the money wasn't really hers, and she herself was embarrassed to use it, so why should she lend it to Su Tiantian?
Furthermore, based on her understanding of Su Tiantian, once the money was lent out, there was no way she could get it back. Expecting Su Tiantian to pay it back was like expecting a sow to climb a tree.
Su Tiantian put down her hands that were pretending to wipe her tears, her eyes widened, and she raised her voice in disbelief, shrill: "I don't believe you don't have money. If he doesn't give you money, why are you with him? In this case, wouldn't you just give it to him?"
Su Nan's face darkened and turned extremely ugly. What did Su Tiantian mean by this? Wasn't she saying that she was being kept by Zhou Rang?
"Bah! You can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth. If you're dating someone like this, then don't expect others to be the same as you."
Su Nan glanced at the people around him and saw that their expressions changed after hearing this. They even looked more and more excited, and he felt sick in his heart.
He believes everything he hears, and his thoughts are dirty.
"I don't care, you have to give me the money tomorrow." Su Tiantian became more and more agitated. Without saying a word, she rushed to Su Nan and grabbed the bag on her shoulder.
"Hey, what are you doing? Are you robbing me?" Su Nan held on to her bag tightly and pushed Su Tiantian, but it was obvious that her little strength was just a tickle for Su Tiantian.
After being pushed, Su Tiantian just took a step back and then continued to move forward to grab the bag.
Although Su Tiantian does not look as tall as Su Nan, she often did housework at home when she was in Shanghai. After coming to Xiaojia Village, she did farm work all day and gained a lot of strength.
At least she was much stronger than Su Nan. She easily pushed the delicate Su Nan to the ground and took the bag in her hand.
"Help, someone is coming! There's a robbery happening in the street." Su Nan shouted loudly several times but no one stepped forward to stop it. They just stood by and watched.
Amidst the indifference, there were a few people who wanted to step forward, but they all looked hesitant, as if they were waiting for others to make the first move.
Seeing this, Su Nan suddenly remembered a post he had seen online before, titled "The Bystander Effect", which means that if you see injustice but do nothing to help, it's not because you are indifferent, but because there are too many people around you.
The content of the post said that vicious incidents of hurting people often occur in society. In addition to carefully planned and unknown killings, some are carried out in public.
For example, you are walking alone on the street, and suddenly a group of strangers rush out and say they are your family and want to take you away. You try your best to explain to other passers-by that you don’t know them.
But no one stepped forward to stop it.
In fact, many people have noticed that you may be in danger, but why is there no one who comes forward to help you?
Those "onlookers" who did not help seemed indifferent, but are we all really indifferent and unkind?
In fact, it is not entirely due to the loss of human nature, it is also related to the "bystander effect".
The bystander effect is a term in psychology that refers to the fact that in an emergency, the probability of a person offering assistance is negatively correlated with the number of people present.
To put it simply, when people encounter a vicious assault, the more onlookers there are, the less willing they are to help the victim.
They will think that with so many people present, even if they don’t take action, someone else will.
But often everyone has the same mentality, and no one steps forward to stop the bad guys.
Therefore, when you encounter danger, you must learn to ask for help in a targeted manner. When you choose one person or a group of people, they will have a sense of responsibility when they face your request for help, and will have a strong willingness to complete the task of saving you.
If they don't save you, they will feel much more guilty than before you specifically asked them for help.
Thinking of this, Su Nan raised his hand, which was bleeding from being rubbed by the small stones on the ground, and pointed at one of the tall men in black clothes, begging, "Brother in black, please help me."
After these words were spoken, the man first lowered his head to look at the clothes on his body, then rushed up without saying a word and pressed Su Tiantian, who was squatting on the ground and looking through Su Nan's bag, to the ground.
"Let me go, what are you doing? There's no room for physical contact between men and women. I'm going to sue you for hooliganism." Su Tiantian was pressed to the ground, her face pressed against the stone road. She was in so much pain, but she didn't let go of the money in her hand.
Those were the cash and some food coupons she had just found in Su Nan's bag, at least several yuan.
"Thank you, comrade. Don't worry. I can testify that you didn't act like a hooligan. You saved me out of bravery." Su Nan got up from the ground.
"Su Tiantian, you first followed me, and then robbed me on the street. Don't you think prison food is not enough for you?" Su Nan angrily patted the dust off his hands and tucked the messy hair in front of his eyes behind his ears.
"Bah." Su Tiantian suddenly burst out with great force and bit the hand of the man in black clothes. When he loosened his hand due to pain, she quickly pushed the crowd away and ran away.
Before anyone could react, the man disappeared.
Su Nan chased forward a few steps, but when he saw that he couldn't catch up, he stopped. Anyway, Su Tiantian could run faster than Chuyi, but not faster than Shiji. She would eventually go to Xiaojia Village, so she wouldn't have to worry about not being able to catch her then.
"Thank you so much, comrade. Without your help, I don't know what would have happened." Su Nan walked to the man in black clothes and bowed sincerely to express his gratitude.
"It's nothing serious."
Su Nan said she wanted to give him a thank-you fee, but then she remembered that all her money had been taken away by Su Tiantian. She really couldn't afford a penny and could only stand there awkwardly and smiled.
The man in black seemed to see her predicament, waved his hand, said it was not necessary, and then left.
Seeing that there was nothing exciting to watch, the others gradually dispersed.
Su Nan sighed, then squatted down and started to clean up the mess on the ground.
