Boss, He’s Becoming a Father (Arc 2) Chapter 52.6: The Bitter Heroine (50)

Zhang Xiaofang thought that if she were like her aunt, with beatings and trouble from her in-laws and her own family always acting like blood-sucking leeches, then she would rather die than live.

 

Aunt Zhang didn’t know either. She was supposed to use Shao Yingniang to attack Shao Yu, but suddenly it became her own child who was rebelling.

 

Liu Cuifen sighed and asked the women of similar age, “Did you live your life by living it or by enduring it?”

 

The female elders present suddenly fell silent.

 

Liu Cuifen added: “Do you still want your daughters and granddaughters to repeat your life?”

 

“Everyone came here this way.” Someone said softly.

 

But Liu Cuifen said firmly: “I am not!”

 

Compared to the other women present, who all had more or less sad looks on their faces, Liu Cuifen seemed to be getting younger and younger. Not only did she not have the slightest sign of sadness on her face, but she looked radiant and a lot younger.

 

Just like the little girl envied Shao Yingniang, the women of the same generation in the alley also envied Liu Cuifen, envied her for being able to be the head of the family and envied her for being able to live freely.

 

These words finally moved a few people.

A neighbor raised her hand and said, “Old Shao, my granddaughter works during the day and learns to read with you at night. Can we keep half of the money she earns?”

 

“And after marriage?” Shao Yu asked.

 

“I don’t care about it after she gets married.” The neighbor said this, tacitly acknowledging that you don’t need money after you get married.

 

“Can she decide on her own when to get married?” Shao Yu asked.

 

“I always have to check. If she meets a jerk, I’ll let her go home and support herself.”

When the neighbor’s daughter heard this, she burst into tears, and the neighbor looked at her lovingly.

 

After hearing this, Shao Yu thought that although this neighbor still wanted to collect half of the salary, it was already a great compromise.

 

He looked at Zhang Xiaofang and Zhao Chunmei standing beside him.

 

They also looked at their respective parents.

 

“Either die or become like her,” said Zhao Chunmei.

Zhang Xiaofang also repeated the same thing.

 

There were many young girls present, and they also said the same thing towards their families.

 

In order to let others know her determination, Zhao Chunmei took out a pair of scissors from somewhere and poked her neck directly.

 

Old Zhao suddenly became anxious. Although he favored boys over girls, she was still his daughter after all. He said, “How can I explain to your in-laws if you are like this?”

 

“Take my body to explain,” Zhao Chunmei said.

Old Zhao sighed and said, “You’ve only been married for a few months, and the betrothal money hasn’t even warmed up yet.”

 

Whether Zhao Chunmei died or went to work, her in-laws would probably come to ask for the bride price, so Old Zhao was very afraid of this.

 

“Don’t worry about that. I’ll take care of it myself.”

 

Old Zhao was helpless. His wife was begging him, and he was afraid that his daughter would be killed. He could only stamp his feet and say, “I don’t care about you anymore!”

 

Zhao Chunmei breathed relief and then turned to the only man present who could handle the matter: Shao Yu.

“Uncle Shao, you helped me before. Now I beg you to help me get a divorce.” Zhao Chunmei knew that it was useless to ask her father for help, but she might have a glimmer of hope if she asked Shao Yu, who had helped Shao Yingniang get a divorce.

 

Shao Yu nodded.

 

Zhang Xiaofang leaned against the wall and almost hit her head against the pillar before finally getting Zhang Mato give in.

 

 

But Zhang Ma’s conditions are more stringent than those of other families.

 

Zhang Xiaofang and her sister were about to agree, but Shao Yu intervened and said, “If you are so bloodsucking, I won’t introduce jobs to them.”

 

Zhang Ma hesitated at this time. Although the two sisters could earn dowry by staying at home, they could not earn as much as working in a factory. What’s more, even if they worked, she could still get more dowry.

 

Aunt Zhang felt that the two sisters were her own children, and she could still control them even if they left home. She thought that agreeing to the conditions now was one thing, and collecting the money privately later was another matter, so she was committed on the surface.

 

Shao Yu knew that Zhang Ma would not be so easy to talk to, but if he pulled the person out now and gave them a few lessons, he would be able to change their minds. Then, it would not be up to Zhang Ma to decide what to say.

 

No one lives in the empty house next to Shao Yu’s house, but Shao Yu has almost done what he wanted to do. He doesn’t know how many people he can change in this way. Maybe these people will be determined today, but turn against him tomorrow, but Shao Yu thinks that if he can save as many people as possible, he will save them.

 

The next day, Shao Yu kept his promise and took the girls to the garment factory. After a simple training, the girls started doing some simple chores.

 

knowing that opportunities are hard to come by, the girls cherish them very much and no one is letting them down.

 

When it was time to teach reading in the evening, Shao Yu got a small blackboard from somewhere and taught in an empty room at home.

 

The doors of his courtyard were open, and anyone who wanted to learn was welcome to sit in.

 

“Money”.

 

The first character that Shao Yu taught was not a simple “one, two, three”, but a very complicated character to write.
