BHBF Chapter 52.3

Boss, He’s Becoming a Father (Arc 2) Chapter 52.3: The Bitter Heroine (47)

Zhang Ma’s youngest daughter got married just two months ago. This girl has been living this kind of life, and now Zhang Ma is going to repeat this kind of life on her granddaughter.

 

“Every girl has gone through this, even I went through this.” Zhang Ma said plausibly.

 

“If everyone does this, does that mean it’s right?” Shao Yu asked rhetorically.

 

Aunt Zhang was stunned.

 

Shao Yu went on to say, “My daughter is also a piece of my flesh. Just because she is a girl, does she become inferior to others? She is oppressed by her parents and ordered around by her husband’s family.”

 

“Just because they are your children, do they not deserve to have their own lives?” Zhang Xiaofang, the eldest granddaughter of Aunt Zhang, had been standing by the door at some point. She said to Shao Yu, “Uncle Shao, I want to learn to read from you, and I also want to go out to work.”

 

The volume of this sentence was not loud, but to the girl, it was as if she had used up all her strength.

 

Zhang Xiaofang is seventeen years old this year. She is thin, with a pale face and patches all over her clothes. She stands there timidly, looking at Shao Yu nervously.

 

Her younger sister Zhang Xiaoya was standing by, also looking at Shao Yu timidly with her pair of dark eyes.

 

Zhang Ma was confronting Shao Yu. Seeing that her granddaughter had surrendered to the enemy, she immediately scolded, “Xiaofang, you have nothing to do here. Get out of here.”

 

Upon hearing this, Shao Yu immediately said, “You think you are chasing away cats and dogs. Why don’t you talk to your eldest grandson like this?”

 

Aunt Zhang choked up and said, “Don’t be so unreasonable. How can a granddaughter compare to a grandson?”

 

When she said this, the people around her nodded secretly.

 

Shao Yu said, “What’s not to like? Aren’t we all human? My daughter is better than all of your sons.”

 

Shao Yu repeatedly brought up Shao Yingniang, which seemed unreasonable to the elders present, but had a very strong appeal to a young girl like Zhang Xiaofang.

 

Although Miss Liu is also a working woman, she is different from Shao Yingniang. From the day Miss Liu came to this alley, everyone knew that Miss Liu was different from the people in the alley.

 

But Shao Yingniang was different. When she first came, she was no different from the girls in the alley. In fact, because she had three children, she had to endure more rumors. In fact, her starting point was even worse than that of the girls in the alley.

 

But since Shao Yingniang started working, she has become different.

 

“Do you learn to study for work?” Shao Yu asked Zhang Xiaofang.

 

Zhang Xiaofang nodded vigorously, looked at Shao Yingniang with envy, and said, “I also want to be like Sister Yingniang.”

 

Shao Yu ignored the messy seniority titles and asked, “What is work for?”

 

“To make money, to…” Zhang Xiaofang vaguely grasped something but couldn’t explain it clearly for a moment.

 

“To get rid of something?” Shao Yu asked.

 

Zhang Xiaofang looked at Zhang Ma beside her with some fear.

 

“Because I don’t want to marry someone I don’t know… No, I don’t even want to get married.”

 

As soon as the voice came out, everyone looked over.

 

This person is not the unmarried girl in the alley, but a married girl, Zhao Chunmei, the daughter of old Zhao.

 

Zhao Chunmei was bullied at her husband’s house and was severely beaten by her husband and mother-in-law. The Zhao family did not dare to intervene, so Shao Yu and the neighbors took her back to recover.

 

Although the girl was brought back, everyone assumed that she would have to go back to her husband’s home after staying for two days.

 

Therefore, when everyone heard her say this, they immediately felt that Zhao Chunmei was extremely rebellious.

 

“It’s ridiculous. You don’t want to learn good things, but insist on learning bad things. If you think so, I’ll send you back now.” Old Zhao said angrily. He came out to watch the excitement in other people’s homes, but he didn’t expect that his own house was on fire.

 

“I don’t want to go back to that damn place.” Zhao Chunmei shook her head.

 

Old Zhao asked angrily: “Where are you going?”

 

“Find a job and then rent a house for myself.” Zhao Chunmei said firmly.

 

There used to be a Miss Liu who lived alone in the alley, so Zhao Chunmei had this idea in her mind.

 

“Can you read? You want to find a job? What kind of job can you find? Are you going to sell your smiles in a brothel?” Old Zhao scolded.

 

When Zhao Chunmei heard this, her eyes instantly turned red.

 

Old Zhao felt a little regretful at this time. He regretted that he shouldn’t have used such words to humiliate his daughter, but when he thought of his daughter’s rebellious thoughts, his heart hardened again.

 

Shao Yu said from the sidelines, “If you can’t read, you can learn. You can also find a job that doesn’t require literacy to make the transition. As long as you have food to eat, you can always survive.”

 

Zhao Chunmei nodded vigorously.

 

Old Zhao said again: “You are too ambitious. There is no room for you in this house. Get out.”

 

A helpless look suddenly appeared on Zhao Chunmei’s face.

 

Aunt Zhang also took the opportunity to say to her two granddaughters: “If you dare to imitate others and go out to work, I will kick you out!”

 

The two granddaughters looked at each other at this time, both looking very helpless.

 

Guan Yang had been watching the excitement for a long time. When he heard this, he immediately said, “Isn’t there an empty room over there? It’s just right for a few girls to rent. I’ll sponsor the first month’s rent.”
