Chapter 172 Breaking the Engagement



Huang Meifeng never dreamed that after she came back, the first thing her father said to her was not to ask her how she was doing in the countryside, but to ask her what she came back for.

She felt wronged and uncomfortable at this moment, and immediately said with a hint of tears in her voice: "Dad, I was bullied in the countryside, and you didn't even ask if I was doing well! I finally came back, where else can I go if I don't go home!"

Huang Meifeng's elder brother has long been dissatisfied with his younger sister. All the things that have happened in the family during this period are because of her.

Now he still had the nerve to feel wronged. Boss Huang scolded him immediately: "How dare you come back! Isn't it all your fault that the family is in this state? Why did you go and provoke that Xu Nanxing for no reason? He has gone to the countryside, are you so bored? You even went all the way to the Northeast to provoke him! Now you've caused trouble! Are you happy?"

"I didn't do it on purpose! It was Xu Nanxing who ruined our family. Why are you blaming me? It wasn't me! I just can't stand Xu Nanxing's nonchalant attitude. Why does she act like that? Her biological father doesn't like her and sent her to the countryside since she was little. Such a big thing happened in her family, why does she act like nothing happened and live so well in the countryside? I just can't stand it!"

Huang Meifeng said angrily.

Boss Huang was so angry that he laughed. "Why do you dislike them? How they live is none of your business! If you're jealous of them, just say so. And what's your reason for disliking them? Even if her father treats her badly, he's still a regular employee. What about us? Both of our parents are just temporary workers in the factory. If they say they don't give you work, you can't do anything about it. You can't compare to them anyway, so what's there to dislike?"

Mr. Huang, who was standing next to him, was very unhappy when he heard this, but his son was right, temporary workers were indeed not as good as regular workers.

Temporary workers are assigned tasks by the factory and are paid for each job they perform. They are not eligible for factory benefits, including housing.

Regular workers, on the other hand, have a fixed salary each month and receive various benefits during festivals. Factory housing and a primary school for factory children are all benefits only regular workers and their families enjoy.

Their family was able to get an apartment in the factory because of the help of Uncle Huang and the gifts they gave to the factory leaders.

Now that their family affairs have been dug into, the house they got will always be untenable.

The factory asked them to vacate the house and move out, and they had no way to refuse.

Even if they found Uncle Huang and the factory leaders who had helped in the past, they would not dare to get involved after knowing that their daughter had offended Director Li.

Finally, they had no choice but to move out of the textile factory.

Huang's father, a temporary worker, could not refute this.

When Huang's mother thought about what had happened at home recently, she shed tears silently.

She was very regretful at this moment.

When Huang Meifeng was still in school, she and Huang Meijuan from Uncle Huang's family bullied Xu Nanxing, and Director Li came to her house to teach them a lesson.

At that time, she just thought it was a prank by the little girl. Besides, Xu Nanxing was not hurt. She just thought Director Li was making a fuss out of nothing, so she didn't take it to heart.

After teaching the two sisters a lesson, they never bullied Xu Nanxing again, so she stopped caring about them.

However, she never expected that the lesson learned from that time did not teach the two of them a lesson!

Huang Meijuan actually instigated Huang Meifeng to travel thousands of miles to the Northeast to cause trouble for Xu Nanxing.

The final result was beyond everyone's expectations.

When Director Li learned that Xu Nanxing was bullied, he directly asked the factory to stop working and assign them work.

Then they were reported for the house robbery.

In the end, the family had to move out of the textile factory in disgrace.

Huang's mother now regrets very much that she did not take the incident to heart and did not let her daughter learn her lesson.

I also hate Director Li because she makes a fuss and makes a big deal out of nothing.

But she made such a big deal out of just the children's play.

It caused their family to fall into this situation.

Of course, she also hated Uncle Huang's family.

She hated Huang Meijuan for instigating her daughter, and hated Uncle Huang for not stepping in to plead for them when their family was about to be kicked out of the factory.

But Huang's mother had no way to deal with these people and could only hold a grudge against them in her heart.

Now seeing her daughter looking clueless, aggrieved, and self-righteous, she felt powerless all over.

Why is this daughter so stupid? She was used as a gun by others but she didn't realize it and still thinks she did nothing wrong!

In order to save money, the Huang family now rents a small two-bedroom, one-living room apartment.

There was no plan to arrange a room for Huang Meifeng from the beginning.

But now she is back with both legs broken, and is completely unable to take care of herself. The Huang family is in a dilemma.

When Huang Meifeng first came in, she thought the house was too small. Seeing that it only had two rooms, she complained, "Why are we renting such a small house? How am I supposed to live here?"

Boss Huang sneered, "If you don't want to live here, you don't have to! You can live anywhere you want! No one will care!"

"You! Dad, look at what happened to my brother? I just complained a few times, but he's planning to kick me out! This is also my home, what right does he have to kick me out?"

Huang Meifeng felt that her elder brother had changed. Why did he refute everything she said?

She is injured and now a patient. She is pitiful enough. Why don’t you give way to her?

Huang Meifeng felt extremely wronged!

Huang's father had been feeling depressed recently. Hearing his daughter complain about the small house, he felt heartbroken. He immediately said, "This is all we have right now. We can't afford to rent a bigger house. If you want to live here, then move in. If you don't want to, then don't! Don't blame your eldest brother either. He even had his marriage canceled because of you."

"What? That family broke off the engagement?"

Huang Meifeng only found out about this now.

Before she went to the countryside, she knew that her elder brother was already looking for a girlfriend.

At that time, the woman's family required the betrothal gifts to include three turns and one ring (a bicycle, a sewing machine, a watch, and a radio), otherwise the marriage would be cancelled.

There is no way. The girl's family is well-off and they are reluctant to give up this marriage.

So, the family looked for people everywhere to help exchange industrial tickets, trying every possible way to get the money together.

Because the family had to collect the three turns and one ring, Huang Meifeng had no money to buy tickets when she went to the countryside.

She was very resentful of her future sister-in-law at that time.

Now when he heard that the woman had cancelled the engagement because her family had suffered a disaster, he immediately became unhappy.

"Brother, you gave so many things to that woman before, are you just going to let it go like this?"

"Dad, Mom, take Big Brother with you and go get him back!"
