Xiaoman's parents both remember him. Yesterday, he yelled at Xiaoman as soon as he walked in the door.
Xiaoman's father: "Young man, do you recognize my daughter?"
"Yes." Han Bin recounted what happened yesterday.
Xiaoman's parents were stunned for a long time after hearing this.
Xiaoman's father: "Our daughter has this ability?"
"I don't know either. Xiaoman, someone is looking for you."
After Xiaoman came out, her parents went back inside.
"Dad, is this young man interested in our Xiaoman?"
"Maybe. He seemed quite anxious yesterday."
"If only that were the case. You don't know, I didn't sleep a wink last night."
"What's wrong?"
"What's wrong?" Xiaoman's mother rolled her eyes at Xiaoman's father. "You men are so carefree. After Xiaoman made such a fuss yesterday, they'll definitely say that Xiaoman is really amazing."
"So what if we're tough? We're just too honest, that's why the Liu family bullies us like this."
"Forget it, I'm not going to talk to you anymore. You wouldn't understand anyway."
"How could I not understand? Aren't you just worried that our Xiaoman won't be able to get married? Let me tell you, some people just want to marry a strong wife, so don't worry."
"You mean the one in the yard?"
"No, I mean, some people want to marry an honest wife, while others want to marry a strong wife. Our Xiaoman will definitely be able to get married."
Xiaoman's mother thought for a moment and said, "That makes sense."
In the courtyard, Xiaoman looked at Han Bin and said, "Tell me about what's going on outside. If you make me happy, I'll tell you why we did what we did." She knew nothing at the moment. She could observe what was happening around her, but she would have to ask around to find out about what was happening outside.
What do you want to hear?
"Anything is fine."
"Okay. I'll tell you..."
Han Bin's mouth was dry from talking: "Still want to listen?"
"Um."
"All right."
Han Bin talked for over an hour, until he was on the verge of a breakdown: "Are you happy now?"
Xiaoman saw that her mother and Xiaoxue had already prepared lunch. "Let's eat, we'll talk after we eat."
"Still talking?!"
"Don't want to talk? Then go back after you finish your meal."
Han Bin gritted his teeth: "Go on, I'll talk until your ears are calloused."
After finishing their meal, Han Bin continued talking. He went on and on, even bringing up pens and toothbrushes. Han Bin noticed that Xiaoman was still listening very attentively. This gave him even more to talk about: bicycles, telephones, school, newspapers…
Xiaoman's mother: "Honey, what are those two kids saying?"
"I don't know either."
"How about we go listen to it?"
"No, if we go, the children will definitely feel embarrassed."
Around four or five in the afternoon, Xiaoman looked up at the sky and said, "Let's stop here. If you were Liu Cheng, would you help that woman suck out the snake venom?"
"meeting."
"Liu Cheng risked poisoning to help her suck out the poison, how will she treat Liu Cheng?"
Han Bin thought for a moment: "She'll be incredibly touched. His uncle is Liu Cheng's boss, and he'll ask his uncle to promote Liu Cheng. Given Liu Cheng's character, he might not want her anymore once he's promoted. Or, she might think that Liu Cheng loves her very much and can't live without her. Then she'll become more and more willful."
"Yes. Also, the first person to say that I would suck out the snake venom for Han Li was my mother."
"If Han Li takes this to heart, then the two of them will fall out of love before they're even married."
"Hmm. What would your mother do if she knew you did this for another woman?"
Break my legs.
"What if that woman marries into your family?"
“My mother definitely doesn’t like her.”
"Yes. Even if your mother knew you were doing this for your own future, she wouldn't be happy about it. Also, the money yesterday came from that girl's family. That money wasn't ordinary money. It was Liu Cheng's money for high school."
"So, if Han Li's family paid that money, then Liu Cheng's high school education was paid for by Han Li's family?"
"If that woman's family wants, they can settle it like this. They could just say: 'We're all in-laws; the Wang family can afford to send you to high school, why can't ours?' Then Liu Cheng won't have to pay back the money. Other families might not settle it this way. But that woman's family…"
Xiaoman snorted: "Yesterday I said, 'If I don't take Liu Cheng's money, his high school education will be paid for by our family. Now, we're making Liu Cheng pay back the money, so his high school education won't be paid for by our family anymore.' Her father's eyes lit up immediately. Money is easy to repay, but kindness is hard to repay. Money is easy to calculate, but kindness is hard to calculate."
"You've complicated their relationship so much, it's no wonder they can't have a good life."
Xiaoman smiled and said, "They brought this on themselves. If they had come to my house to break off the engagement properly, I wouldn't have made things difficult for them. If they had returned the money, the Liu family wouldn't have had the chance to receive this favor from me."
"But...none of this has anything to do with Han Li, right?"
"It's alright." Xiaoman glanced at Han Bin: "Who doesn't ask about their daughter's marriage? My relationship with Liu Cheng isn't a secret."
"Okay, she deserves it." Han Bin silently warned himself: I can't afford to offend Wang Xiaoman.
Han Bin had just left Xiao Man's house when he saw a middle-aged woman angrily enter Xiao Man's house. Fearing that Xiao Man's family would be taken advantage of, he turned back.
As soon as I entered, I saw the woman pointing her finger at Xiaoman's nose and shouting, "Wang Xiaoman, have you no shame? My son doesn't want you, so you go to his in-laws' house to cause trouble during his wedding. Have you no shame? Huh? You're inferior to others, yet you have the nerve to cause trouble. Wang Xiaoman, let me tell you, someone like you isn't even worthy to carry my son's shoes! Wang Xiaoman, you just wait. I'll cause trouble at your wedding too. Wang Xiaoman..."
Liu Chengniang's words became increasingly offensive.
Xiaoman's mother wanted to argue with her, but Xiaoman didn't let her.
Hearing the commotion, the neighbors came to see what was going on. Once a large crowd had gathered, Xiaoman finally spoke: "She stole my man, can't I go find her?"
"You're incompetent, who can you blame? Ah... help me!"
There's a tree in Xiaoman's yard, about seven or eight meters tall. Xiaoman threw her into the tree: "You've done something wrong and you're still so arrogant. You're asking for it."
Liu Cheng's mother was so scared she almost wet herself. Xiao Man had always treated her with deference and respect, so she thought Xiao Man wouldn't lay a hand on her. "Xiao... Xiao Man, Auntie was wrong, please get Auntie off here."
"How much does it cost to support a high school student? And how much money have you taken from my family?"
"this……"
"You're not going to tell me? Then you can just hang it up there."
"I'll talk, I'll talk."
After she finished speaking, everyone was stunned. Wasn't it said that the Wang family only contributed half the money? How come they contributed more than they did contribute the whole amount?
"Was it your idea to get the marriage certificate first and then call off the engagement?"
"no."
"Swear it."
"I sent it..."
"There are gods watching over you from above."
"I...I..."
She dared not swear an oath, but everyone understood.
Liu Cheng's father and Liu Cheng rushed over after hearing the news. Liu Cheng's father said some kind words to Xiaoman's father, and Xiaoman asked them to get Liu Cheng's mother down from the tree.
This whole commotion has ruined the Liu family's reputation. I don't know what Liu Cheng's mother was thinking. Maybe she's used to bullying others and thinks they'll let her bully them forever.
Han Bin shook his head and left. When he got home, he found his grandma and mom both had dark expressions. "What's wrong? Who upset you?"
Grandma Han: "You."
Tang Huihui: "You."
"Me? I haven't been home all day."
Han Zhuang: "Brother, it's because you weren't home."
"What's the meaning?"
"Grandma and Mom were planning to take you on a blind date. They'd already made arrangements. We were supposed to go to town in the morning and then to Grandma's house in the afternoon. But you left early this morning and haven't come back yet."
"What?!"
