Chapter 99: The Wedding is about to end
Shen Meng looked at Teacher Zheng's greetings and quickly said, "I didn't mean to come to school. I just saw Mingyang and the others studying and I was happy. I also wanted to learn from them. I used to attend literacy classes, but my family was not well off, so I didn't go to school. I didn't come to school just to learn to read with Mingyang and the others. Well, I also want to know how I am doing, so I would like to ask you to see if I can take the exam when the school takes the exam."
After she finished speaking, she lifted the floral ornament by her ear, then lowered her head and gave a shy smile.
Teacher Zheng welcomes people who love to study very much, and she has deep sympathy for what Shen Meng just said. This is a girl from the countryside who loves to study but can't go to school. The reason why she stays here and doesn't go back to the city is because she wants more women to awaken and recognize their own abilities.
"Okay, what's wrong with this, sister-in-law, your idea is very good. In this way, you study hard with Mingyang and the others, and when the exam comes, I will give you an extra test paper. If you study well, I will apply for a diploma for you, a primary school diploma, and help you get a student status. Sister-in-law, you study hard, maybe you can become a college student in the future!"
"I, I will definitely work hard, Teacher Zheng."
Teacher Zheng's words were exactly what Shen Meng wanted. This was exactly the effect she wanted. It would definitely not be possible to achieve this by coming to school every day, but with the help of Teacher Zheng, she would definitely have no problem getting a primary school diploma. Although the knowledge in junior high and high school was different from that in her previous life, as long as she read more and learned more, it would not be much different.
After getting the answer she wanted, Shen Meng took out everything in the basket, and placed the rice and flour separately under Teacher Zheng's desk when she wasn't paying attention. She then ran out and placed a bag of rice noodles from the bicycle in the office, taught her how to make it, and then rode her bicycle home.
As soon as she got home, she saw someone sitting at the door. She looked closely and found it was Guo Xiuqin. There were some gifts beside her, and it was obvious that she came to visit her, a patient.
"Director Guo, why are you here?"
Guo Xiuqin felt very ashamed. She had just arrived a while ago but didn't dare to knock on the door. When she saw Shen Meng coming back from outside, she hurried over to greet her.
"Xiao Meng, where have you been? Are you feeling better?"
"I'm much better now. Nothing's wrong now. I just went to school. I have a lot of things to do at home. I feel bad for always bothering the teacher. I just went over to say thank you."
Guo Xiuqin was relieved when she heard that. She waved the things in her hand and said, "I'm relieved to know that you've been discharged from the hospital. I wanted to come and see you last night. I was afraid that you needed to rest, so I hurried over today."
"Come on, let's go home and talk."
Guo Xiuqin shook her head. She had to hurry to her uncle's house soon. There was noise all day long in their home, causing the neighbors to gossip. If they continued like this, they would have no chance of living.
"I won't go over. I came to you this time to apologize to you. Xiao Meng, you believe your aunt. Although I saw you get the note from the brick factory that day, I was just envious. I went home and expressed my feelings to my husband and son. I didn't expect that my old lady would hear it. I really didn't expect her to go to Zhenping's mother to tell her. You got beaten for no reason. It's really my fault, Xiao Meng, I'm really sorry for you."
Shen Meng naturally understood that Director Guo was not to blame for this matter, and everyone in Lujia Village knew her character. She was not a troublemaker. She was the director of the Women's Department and usually helped the women in the village with their work. Naturally, Shen Meng would not blame her.
"Director Guo, how can you say that? How could I blame you? This matter has nothing to do with you. It's my grandmother who wants to find me. Otherwise, even if I made a fortune for my parents, she wouldn't say anything. She's just jealous and upset. My parents gave birth to me and raised me. They bought medicine for me day and night and took care of me when I was sick. I'm married, not selling myself. It's only natural for me to respect them. No one can control me."
"That's the truth, but since you're married, you should live as a couple. Your old lady is not easy to get along with, but she is Zhenping's mother after all. She should do it for Zhenping's sake. Let it go if it can. After all, the most important thing is that you live a happy life." It's not easy to be a daughter-in-law. Men like Shen Meng, Wu Xianglan, Zhou Jiaojiao and Xie Jinghao are already very good. Some men only listen to their mothers and either beat or scold their daughters-in-law. They always shout that a beaten daughter-in-law is better than a beaten dough. A few years ago, there were a few people in Lujia Village who were beaten crazy. There were many who sat on the graves and cried in the middle of the night.
But what could she do? She could only try her best to prevent such incidents from happening in the village. However, Uncle Guai's family was in trouble. Instead of having a good daughter-in-law, their own son was abducted and became a useless person. Strange things happen every year, but this year there are especially many of them.
"I understand, aunt."
"This is your apology gift to you. I'm going to visit Uncle Guai's family soon. Their family is also in a mess. I heard that Xiangxiang's marriage is going to fail. It's really infuriating."
"I can't take this. If you have something to do, just go and do it. When you have time, just come over and play."
Shen Meng pushed the things away. She had just gone to give a gift to Teacher Zheng, and she didn't expect to receive a bunch of things when she came back.
"Take this. It will make you feel better. I have to leave now. If it's too late, there will be a fight at Uncle Guai's house."
Guo Xiuqin didn't give her much time to refuse. She put the things in Shen Meng's bicycle basket, said hello, and turned away.
Shen Meng frowned and looked at Director Guo. She had heard from Uncle Guai that Xiangxiang would be getting married soon, and that he had hired a suona band to make Xiangxiang's wedding a lively one. The old couple owed Xiangxiang a lot, so they wanted to make it up to her when she got married.
But I didn't expect that such a short time had passed and Xiangxiang's marriage was about to fail.
Over there is Uncle Guai's house.
Zhu Juying was sitting on the ground with disheveled hair. Opposite her was Huangmaochun, who also had disheveled hair. She bent her waist and pointed at the old woman sitting on the ground and cursed her.
"You old woman, why should I care if your daughter can't get married? If you have the guts, go find her in-laws. Why are you venting your anger on me? It's because your family is poor. You coward, how dare you hit me? I'm not that easy to bully. I, Huang Maochun, went to school for two years and I'm an intellectual, but you peasants are different. I'm telling you, be polite to me next time you see me."
"Mao Chun, how can you talk to my mother like that in front of me? What are you calling me mother? Who are you calling me mother?" Lu Xingchang shouted in dissatisfaction.
Unexpectedly, Huang Maochun walked up to him and slapped him in the face. With a "pop" sound, the people from the Lu family were shocked and unable to react for a long time.
