"What did you say?" Xu Hongmei looked at the man in front of her in disbelief.
The promises and sweet words of the past are still ringing in her ears. He doted on her so much, and she felt sorry for his hard life, so she secretly gave him money and food. Even the clothes he is wearing now were given by her, but now he has turned his back on her.
Xu Yongshun and Su Fengying stood up together, also looking surprised.
Xu Daqiang grabbed Zhao Guohua's arm and asked angrily, "Say it again!"
"The baby in Teacher Xu's belly is not mine. Don't slander me." Zhao Guohua shook off Xu Daqiang and denied it again.
Facing the branch secretary's family, he was actually a little nervous, but thinking that he would be able to return to the city soon, he gritted his teeth and plucked up his courage, deciding to sever his ties with Xu Hongmei today no matter what.
After the incident of pushing the child into the water was exposed and he was driven to live in the cowshed, he couldn't stand it anymore and his desire to return to the city reached its peak.
He wrote a letter home to complain to his parents, but his father insisted on letting him stay here and had not yet given up the idea of letting him get close to Li Xiyue.
His father was far away in the city and didn't know how terrible Li Xiyue was, but he knew that he would never dare to provoke Li Xiyue.
In desperation, he had to think of other ways to save himself.
He knew that as long as he was rated as an advanced brigade, the production team would have a quota for admission to the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University. As long as he got this quota, he could go to university in the city and leave this hellhole.
This quota will most likely fall into the hands of the family members of the brigade cadres. As long as he becomes a family member of a cadre, he can get this quota.
After some investigation, he finally locked on the target person, Xu Hongmei, the daughter of the branch secretary.
Other cadres' families either had no daughters or their daughters were married when they grew up. Only the secretary's daughter was about the same age as him, had a high school education, and was an elementary school teacher. He felt that if there was a place in the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University, it would definitely fall to Xu Hongmei.
As long as he marries Xu Hongmei and coaxes her to give him the spot, he will get what he wants.
As for graduating from college, he certainly would not come back. Xu Hongmei was just a stepping stone for him to return to the city, and he never thought of being with her forever.
He thought Xu Hongmei was knowledgeable and a teacher, so it would take some effort to win her over. However, he didn't expect that Xu Hongmei was easy to coax. He complained to her and said sweet words, and she was moved. In the end, they successfully got into the grove.
He originally planned to pretend to marry Xu Hongmei, but he received a letter from home a few days ago. After his parents learned of Li Muqing's death, they were worried that something might have happened to him, so they found a job for him so that he could return to the city.
Since he can go back to the city, why does he still care about Xu Hongmei?
Of course, the child was an accident, and he didn't expect Xu Hongmei to get pregnant so easily.
He would never recognize this child no matter what.
As long as he doesn't admit it, the branch secretary's family can't do anything to him.
The secretary's family was the woman's family. For the sake of their reputation and Xu Hongmei's future happiness, they did not dare to make a big deal out of the matter, and in the end it ended up being left unresolved.
He could also turn around and threaten the secretary's family to approve a note for him to return to the city. If the secretary's family disagreed, he would spread the matter and embarrass the secretary's family.
Thinking of this, he became more confident. "Secretary, your family couldn't raise your daughter well, and she got pregnant out of wedlock, so you want me to take the blame? I won't agree!"
"You, you..." Su Fengying pointed at Zhao Guohua, lost her breath, and fainted.
Xu Yongshun supported his wife, "Old woman!"
"Mom!" Xu Hongmei also rushed over.
Xu Yongshun hurriedly shouted to Xu Daqiang who was about to come over, "Go call Doctor Li, quickly!"
Xu Daqiang quickly turned around and ran away.
Zhao Guohua took advantage of the chaos and escaped.
Li Xiyue returned to the clinic and had just finished her breakfast. She hadn't even put away the dishes when Xu Daqiang arrived.
She carried the medicine box and went to the secretary's house again. On the way, she listened to Xu Daqiang's explanation of the situation and became angry. Zhao Guohua was a beast and was not doing anything about it!
Su Fengying was just suffering from anger, and she woke up after the acupuncture. As long as she is not stimulated again, she will be fine.
Xu Hongmei knelt beside the bed, holding Su Fengying's hand and crying, "Mom, I'm sorry, it's me who is unfilial. Mom, don't be angry, it's my fault, I was wrong..."
"Hongmei..." Su Fengying looked at her daughter and said with deep sorrow, "Why are you so confused? So confused!"
Xu Yongshun's face was as black as charcoal and he said nothing.
Xu Daqiang was so angry that he wanted to kill someone, "I'm going to kill that bastard!"
"Come back!" Xu Yongshun called out to his son. "Killing him will change anything. It will only bring you down with it!"
My daughter-in-law had just given birth, and my son's family's good days had just begun. How could it be ruined like this?
"The branch secretary is right, Comrade Daqiang, you should not be impulsive. It is not worth sacrificing yourself for a scumbag." Li Xiyue also advised.
Su Daqiang punched the wall and asked, "Is this the end of the matter?"
"Mom, Dad, Brother, I accept it. I will abort the child and treat it as if I was bitten by a dog." Xu Hongmei cried.
She has already implicated her family, and if she causes her family to get into trouble again, she will never forgive herself.
She is blind and misjudged the person. Just take it as a lesson and punishment.
She bore all the pain alone.
Xu Yongshun couldn't swallow this, "I can't just let it go like this!"
He is a branch secretary after all. If he lets his daughter suffer so much pain, he would be unworthy of being a human being!
Su Fengying said: "If he doesn't admit it, what can we do?"
That beast refuses to admit his mistake and doesn't want Hongmei and the child anymore. Even if we force him to agree, can Hongmei be happy?
Li Xiyue looked at Xu Hongmei, "Teacher Xu, what do you think?"
Xu Hongmei met Li Xiyue's eyes and retreated a little, "I, I don't know."
"If you want to continue living with him, or get married, there are ways to make him recognize you and the child. If you don't want to continue and want to break up with him completely and make him pay the price he deserves, that's also fine. The prerequisite is that you have to think about what you want?" Li Xiyue said.
"I don't know, I don't know..." Xu Hongmei kept shaking her head.
Li Xiyue sighed. She didn't know why she couldn't bear to let go of the other person even though she knew he was not a good person. To put it bluntly, Xu Hongmei still had hope for Zhao Guohua.
Yes, how could a love-sick person sober up so easily, especially when someone is fully committed like Xu Hongmei? She has already decided in her heart that Zhao Guohua is the man she wants to spend her life with.
She couldn't be so cruel as to end it without losing a lot of blood.
She didn't understand, the secretary's family was so good to Xu Hongmei, cultivating her and even letting her become a teacher, how could she also fall in love?
Isn't love brain a disease caused by lack of love? Can it also happen even when there is no lack of love?
"Secretary, Auntie, please give Teacher Xu some time to think it over clearly." Li Xiyue gave Su Fengying some instructions, asking her to calm down. She left some medicine and then left.
After returning to the clinic, Li Xiyue took a nap. Just as she got up to make lunch, Xu Daqiang came hurriedly to call her, saying that something had happened to Xu Hongmei.
