Liang Chunyang stood up, brushed off the dirt on his body nonchalantly, and walked out with a snort.
She came here today to see Xu Shan's miserable state. Now that she has seen it, she is naturally satisfied. What's the use of kicking her? Even if she kicks her a few more times, it won't change the fact that her parents are dead and the breeding farm is gone.
Without support, being beautiful will only bring her troubles, and she will be the one being trampled upon by everyone in the future.
Now that she has Li Hanliang, she has everything. From now on, she will be the object of everyone's admiration in this village.
She, Xu Shan, can only be a thing of the past.
...
Liang Chunyang left triumphantly, leaving Xu Shan sitting dejectedly on a stool, crying with her face in her hands.
Her body seemed to have lost its support and was about to fall. She didn't know how to face the future life.
"Shanshan, it's me, Aunt Li."
"What are you doing here?"
Xu Shan sorted herself out and was about to close the door to sleep when she found Li Hanliang's mother standing at her door. Xu Shan now had no good feelings towards the Li family.
"Shanshan, I know you're angry with us, and I know Liangliang and his father are doing the wrong thing, but you also know that I have no say in that family and I'm not the head of the family."
"You use yourself to speak for them, so go away."
As Xu Shan was speaking, she was about to close the door, but Aunt Li anxiously held her back.
"Shanshan, hurry up and leave this village."
"Aunt Li, ever since my parents died, not only have you turned your back on me, but the farm has been taken over, and you're trying to get rid of me by giving me a few things. Now you're even forbidding me from staying in the village and want to kick me out. You're really capable. Do you have the final say over the entire village?"
"Shanshan, you misunderstood. Today, when I was at home, I heard your uncle talking on the phone with a dealer he had contacted before. I didn't hear clearly what they were planning, but it seems he wanted to adopt you as his goddaughter. Once the title is confirmed, he will marry you off as his godfather. It seems that the dealer was the one who arranged it.
Although Aunt Li isn't the head of the household, she's seen a few dealers. Shanshan, listen to me. I won't harm you. Leave immediately. I know exactly what kind of person my husband is. He wants to use you as a tool to make money, and Aunt Li is the first one to object. If you don't live well, I won't be able to face your poor parents in the afterlife.
Xu Shan misunderstood Aunt Li and felt embarrassed. She opened her mouth and said awkwardly, "Thank you for your reminder."
"Shanshan, it's the 1990s now, and a lot of people in the village are leaving to work. You're already 23 years old, and a college graduate, so it'll definitely be easy for you to find a job. As long as you leave the village, he can't do anything to you. Go to the county farmers' market and sell these eggs for a little money. Take your parents' passbook and leave quickly."
After Li Hanliang's mother finished speaking, she left in a hurry.
Xu Shan stood at the door thinking about what Aunt Li had just said.
If that were the case, she really couldn't deal with the cunning Li Changshan now.
Her father, who was such a smart man, couldn't beat Li Changshan, let alone her, a little girl.
Xu Shan thought it would be better for her to go out and hide for a while, and then come back when she was fully grown to deal with Li Changshan.
Xu Shan returned to the house, packed her clothes, took her household registration book, ID card, and her parents' death certificates.
He used the family's cart to pull dozens of boxes of eggs and left the house overnight.
The next morning, smoke rose from every household.
Only Xu Shan's house was deserted, with the door locked from the outside.
Xu Shan had come here with her parents to deliver eggs before.
I arrived at the county's farmers' market with ease.
I asked several grain and oil stores.
"Boss, do you want the hair on the eggs?"
"How much is one pound?"
"1.2 yuan, wholesale price."
"So cheap? There won't be any bad ones, right?"
"Our eggs used to cost 1.8 yuan per pound. School is about to start, so my parents sold a batch of eggs cheaply to help me raise tuition. The eggs are all good, there's nothing wrong with them. If there's a problem, go directly to Erling Village and find Lao Li. He'll guarantee to compensate me ten times for every one I give."
"Oh, it's Old Li's. Okay, unload two baskets for me."
"Okay."
Xu Shan pushed a cart and walked to the county town yesterday.
She arrived at the farmers' market at around three in the morning and sat at the gate for three or four hours until the market opened.
Then I started asking one by one.
By noon, eight frames were no longer out.
She was really tired.
We found a place on the first floor of the hotel and carried the remaining goods, boxes at a time, directly into the room, fearing that if we left them outside, someone would take them away.
Xu Shan twisted her neck. Her right shoulder had been hurting all day. She opened her clothes and saw that there was a cut on her right shoulder.
