Although he thought there was nothing wrong with marrying into the wife's family, he couldn't help but feel upset when he thought that if the villagers knew about it, he would not be able to hold his head up in the village.
"Dad, you can't think like that. They only have this one daughter, so they're truly extinct. I don't have to pay a bride price to marry her, and the Chen family still has to pay us. When I get a job in the future, with her father's influence, I'll definitely be promoted. When her father retires, I can do whatever I want."
She's just a woman, so easy to control.
What's more, Chen Jing is a love-brained person with no brains.
He became more and more excited as he spoke: "I'll go and beg his father to release Mom as soon as possible. Once I've established myself over there, I'll bring you two to the city to live a good life!"
Old Man Lu was finally persuaded and began whispering to his son.
Every word they said fell into Gu Qingning's ears.
She still said the same thing, the Chen family has been able to struggle in the provincial capital for so many years, so they are naturally not easy to deal with.
However, she couldn't be so kind as to remind them.
They must climb to a high place first and then fall from the clouds. That would be the most exciting.
Let Lu Weiguo enjoy himself for a while!
On this side, Lu Xue returned home crying.
When Lu Weiguo saw it was his sister, he became extremely nervous: "Why did you come back alone? A daughter who is married is like spilled water. You are already married, and you still run back home every day. Aren't you ashamed?"
Lu Xue lost face in the village and became the topic of conversation after dinner. She was ridiculed for a long time.
They were finally about to go to the city, so they could save some face. If something happened to Lu Xue at this time, the villagers would probably laugh at them behind their backs.
The more Lu Weiguo thought about it, the angrier he became: "Get back here right now!"
"Brother, Dad! Open your eyes and look at what I've been beaten into!"
Lu Xue's originally pretty face was now bruised and swollen, and she looked like a pig's head. She no longer looked like a human.
She originally wanted to go to the Women's Federation to seek help, but Aunt Zhou was working there and she scolded her and sent her back on the way.
Aunt Zhou has also greeted all her colleagues at work.
If anyone dares to help Lu Xue, she will be the first to disagree and will definitely make it impossible for you to stay in the unit.
Everyone thought it was better to have less trouble than more, so they persuaded Lu Xue to go back.
"Go back now and live a good life. The Zhou family has already given the betrothal gift. What else do you want?"
Lu Weiguo pushed her out without saying anything. "Find a way and get pregnant quickly. I don't believe they can beat you again!"
"Brother, please be kind and let me have a meal! I've been hungry for so many days!"
"Don't do that. You didn't even bring a penny of betrothal money to your family. Why should I take you in? Why should I give you food?" Lu Weiguo said as he pushed her out.
"Go ask for help from whoever accepted your betrothal gift!"
"Brother, brother, please, let me in!"
Lu Xue was outside crying and banging on the door, but unfortunately Lu Weiguo and Old Man Lu refused to let her in.
She cried until her voice was hoarse and she could only run out wiping her tears.
On this side, Gu Qingning deliberately came back with the freshly cut pork.
As soon as Lu Xue saw the fresh pork, she couldn't help licking her lips.
She hasn't had a full meal for a long time!
Since she married into the Zhou family, she had to do all the work, big and small, for the Zhou family and serve the whole family. At night, Zhou Jianjun would punch and kick her. She was hungry and thin, and had become as shriveled as an old woman.
As for eating meat, that was 800 years ago.
"Hey, isn't this our Lu Xue who got married in such a grand ceremony? Now she's a city girl, but why is she still wearing old clothes and has a panda eye from being beaten?"
Lu Xue's face turned red and embarrassed, but she couldn't say a word in rebuttal.
She had already been scared by Gu Qingning.
She licked her lips pitifully and said, "Sister-in-law, please help me. My family won't give me any food. If I don't eat, I'll starve to death!"
Gu Qingning sneered.
Even if she wanted to feed the meat to the dogs, she would not feed it to the Lu family.
"I say you are such an unlucky person. You have been eating commercial grain in the city, but now you can't even eat a piece of meat."
Lu Xue's tears fell down: "Sister-in-law, I really don't have anyone to talk to. I beg you, please be kind!"
She cried pitifully, but Gu Qingning remained as hard-hearted as ever and didn't even frown.
The Lu family brought this upon themselves, and Lu Xue deserved it even more.
She said coldly: "If you want to eat meat, then go to the Zhou family and make a scene. Just go and make a scene now just like you did before the marriage. Are you afraid that they won't give you food?"
She didn't sympathize with Lu Xue, but the Zhou family was not a pushover either.
Lu Xue's eyes lit up. She really hadn't expected this!
"Thank you, sister-in-law!"
Lu Xue returned to the city happily.
"Everyone, come and judge for yourself. Look at what I've been beaten to ashes by that family. There's not a single piece of good flesh left on my body. I can't survive this. I'm going to hit my head and die!"
After saying that, she started making a big fuss in the factory again.
The factory manager felt his temples throbbing.
It would have been fine if it happened once, but Lu Xue had already married into the Zhou family as she wished, so why was she still coming here to make trouble?
Zhou Jianjun rushed to the broadcasting room in one swift step: "Lu Xue, I'll count to three, get out of here!"
