Chapter 52 Kneel down
"Shen Yunxiu? I remember that the girl that Director Meng's kid dated before was not this girl. I think her name was Xiaoshu, a very pretty and gentle girl."
"I heard that the Meng family kid abandoned that girl and got together with this girl named Shen Yunxiu. Not only that, they are cousins."
"Oh my god, did he steal my cousin's girlfriend? This Meng family kid usually looks nice, good-looking, and has a good temper, so why would he do something like this and abandon his previous girlfriend?"
"Then it must be related to this girl named Shen Yunxiu. Didn't you hear her mother say that she is pregnant with the Meng family's child before they even got married?"
"This shows that the two of them have been together for a long time."
"This girl and the boy from the Meng family, even though they look decent, they actually did such a thing. Their character is really..."
"If this happened before, it would be almost like having an affair."
"This girl is so shameless. She has a man's child before getting married. If my daughter were like this, I would have strangled her to death long ago."
"That's right. But Shen Yunxiu's mother is really bold. She actually asked for a betrothal gift of 5000 yuan. When my eldest daughter got married last year, the betrothal gift was only 500 yuan, which I thought was not a small amount. I didn't expect Shen Yunxiu's mother to ask for such a huge amount. She really thinks her daughter is a treasure."
"She treats him like a treasure. Not only does she want a 5000 yuan betrothal gift, she also wants Director Meng to arrange a job for her son. She really thinks this factory belongs to the Meng family."
Although this food factory has been managed by Director Meng for many years, it does not mean that this factory belongs to Director Meng.
Nowadays, jobs are a stable job.
As each job position in the factory rotates, I don’t know how many pairs of eyes are watching.
If Director Meng really gave a job to the son of his future relative-in-law, he would definitely be reported, and he would no longer be in the position of director.
But Director Meng and his wife are not stupid. How could they do such a thing?
Besides, even if you are Director Meng's future relative and you really want this job, you can't just say it so casually in the slum, and use threats and inducements, saying that if she doesn't give you 5000 yuan in betrothal gifts and the job, you'll have to abort her daughter's pregnancy with Meng Jue's child.
There are so many people watching, and you said this. Even if Director Meng wanted to give it to you, he can't.
Unless he is crazy or tired of being the factory director.
But Director Meng is not stupid.
People in the surrounding tenements just thought that this family was really stupid.
As the daughter of this family, Shen Yunxiu is both pitiful and shameless.
Listening to the whispers around her and the strange looks directed at her and her family, Shen Yunxiu's scalp tingled.
Just when her mother was about to instigate her, Shen Yunxiu could no longer hold back her anger and immediately yelled, "Stop talking!"
Shen Yunxiu's sudden scolding stunned Yao Cuiyu, who was originally talking eloquently and getting more and more excited, and even her words were choked in her throat.
Shen Yunxiu turned to look at her and said, "Mom, what nonsense are you talking about? Pre-marriage pregnancy? Meng Jue and I have already obtained the marriage certificate. We are legal, but we just haven't had time to hold the wedding banquet yet."
After saying that, Shen Yunxiu's face changed again, she looked aggrieved, and even tears welled up in her eyes.
"Mom and Dad, I know you love your eldest brother and youngest brother the most, but I am also your daughter. Now that Jue and I are together, I have finally found happiness. Can you please bless us? Why are you ruining my reputation like this?"
"A betrothal gift of 5000 yuan, are you marrying off your daughter or selling her? I know you don't love me, but I didn't expect you to..."
Shen Yunxiu's tears fell as she spoke, "There is also the matter of work. Meng Jue's father, Director Meng, has always been the most fair. How could he do such a thing as casually giving work to a relative?"
"Mom and Dad, please don't embarrass Director Meng, and don't embarrass me, okay?"
"Mom and Dad, I beg you, I kneel down to you..."
As she spoke, Shen Yunxiu was about to kneel down with tears in her eyes, but Meng Jue beside her quickly pulled her back. Meng Jue also knew that Shen Yunxiu had a hard time in the Shen family, otherwise she would not have been beaten that evening and would not have run away from the Shen family to live with him.
Because she is homeless.
It is undeniable that Meng Jue felt sympathy for Shen Yunxiu who was in such a situation.
The Shen family really treats Shen Yunxiu badly.
"Uncle and aunt, Xiuxiu is right. Your request is too much. Our Meng family cannot do it, and we will not do it."
"Besides, Xiuxiu was beaten by you guys and had to leave the Shen family. Have you looked for her these days? Have you ever thought about how she was doing during the days she was away from home?"
"Xiu Xiu has not had an easy life. Please don't make things difficult for her anymore." Meng Jue's face was full of pity for Shen Yunxiu, and also anger towards the people in the Shen family who forced Shen Yun.
Shen Yunxiu was very satisfied with Meng Jue's reaction.
She also knew how selfish and cruel her family was, as well as how stupid and brainless they were.
Therefore, Shen Yunxiu did not think of having a head-on fight with them. In such a situation, she pretended to be pitiful and weak in order to win the sympathy of everyone and the Meng family.
Besides, what she said was true.
Since her family shamelessly came to the Meng family to ask for a betrothal gift, disregarding their own and her reputation, she didn't have to give it.
As it turned out, she was right.
At this time, the Shen family was speechless facing such a "weak" Shen Yunxiu and Meng Jue who was full of protection.
They originally wanted Shen Yunxiu to stand on their side and threaten the Meng family together, but they didn't expect that Shen Yunxiu, who had always been obedient, would not join them in forming a united front.
Yes, this girl started changing two months ago.
Last time, I had a quarrel with them and ran away from home and didn’t come back for several days.
They originally thought that Shen Yunxiu was just throwing a tantrum. They thought that as long as they treated her coldly and let her know how pitiful it was to lose her mother's family, and then as long as they said a few nice words, the old Shen Yunxiu would come back and listen to them obediently.
But unexpectedly, Shen Yunxiu has completely changed now.
I no longer need them, and I am no longer controlled by them.
The only bargaining chip that allowed them to come here is Shen Yunxiu.
But now Shen Yunxiu has betrayed them, and for a moment they don’t know what to do.
In addition, after listening to Shen Yunxiu's complaints, people around them pointed fingers at them.
Mr. Shen, who was very concerned about his reputation, and the youngest son Shen, finally couldn't help it and left first.
As soon as Mr. Shen left, these people seemed to have lost their backbone and quickly left the compound. Their fleeing backs looked like dogs being chased if you didn't know better.
Although they left temporarily, Shen Yunxiu knew that her affairs with her family were not over yet.
She doesn't need or want such a family.
Therefore, she had to find a time and a way to get rid of this dirty and smelly family as soon as possible.
