When Zheng Qinglan passed by Shang Liu Xin's room, she saw her sitting at the table in a daze. He remembered the words on the paper he saw when he was looking for the match last time. He felt a pain in his heart. This girl must have encountered the greatest humiliation. That man deserved to die. He couldn't help but roar and kick a stone far away. It hit the wall and bounced back. He himself was shocked. He had never shown his anger like this before. This voice probably alerted Shang Liu Xin. She walked out and looked at Zheng Qinglan, asking,""Little Zheng, what are you doing? It's so scary.”"I scared you. I'm sorry, I'm sorry.”"Oh, it's nothing. Come and sit with me, will you?”Zheng Qinglan hesitated for a moment, but still followed Shang Liu Xin into the room. If it was before, he would definitely find an excuse to refuse, but now he felt that he had to help a person in trouble. Neither of them spoke. Zheng Qinglan suddenly remembered the last time she accompanied Shang Liu Xin to get the marriage certificate. She asked,""Did you get your marriage certificate? Have you registered your marriage?" " I've already written the marriage recommendation letter from the village and sent it to him. Originally, two people had to be present at the same time to apply for a marriage certificate at the town's civil affairs office. He said that he was working at the town's courtyard and that he only needed to inform the person who applied for the marriage certificate. He didn't let me go, but he didn't reply to me. I couldn't help but look for him. He was very angry at first, but when he saw that my attitude was very firm, he turned around and coaxed me, saying that he was helping me find a better job. We'll talk about marriage after I find a better job.”
"There's no contradiction between getting a marriage certificate and finding a job. Why can't we get a marriage certificate before finding a job?”
"I know that he doesn't want to get a marriage certificate at all. He doesn't want to marry me.”
"Why is he stalling? Does he really not want to get married?”
"He doesn't want me anymore. He thinks that I'm a rural hukou and not a commercial grain hukou. He found another woman from the city.”
"This is too despicable. Didn't he know that you were a farmer from the beginning?”
"This isn't the first time he's done something like this. Poor me, I was blind. I thought that he would treat me sincerely if I treated him sincerely, so I let this beast's flowery words bewitch me. We had a child less than a week after we met. At that time, he said that he had a child, but after two or three months, he told me that he had just joined the job and that getting married and having a child would affect his work. He was afraid that the leader would have an opinion and ask me to abort the child. I didn't agree. He used his personality and party spirit to make a wish to me. He said that as long as I aborted the child, he would come to accompany me every day after work and help me wash my clothes. When I recovered, he would marry me. I listened to him and went to the hospital for surgery. The child was already formed. The doctor said it was a girl. However, after the surgery, he only sent me home and never came again. I was so anxious that I fell ill and had a high fever. My mother asked someone to send him a message to see me, but he didn't come. My brother went to the town courtyard to look for him, but he insisted that he would accompany the leader to do something. He refused to come no matter what. I knew he wouldn't come. I went to the town to look for him before the confinement period was over, but he hid and didn't see me. I looked for the director of the Women's Federation, and the director said that things were different now. He said that we were not hooligans anymore. He said that we were willing to be together and they couldn't control it. Xiao Zheng, tell me, what should I do? How am I supposed to live? Now, as long as people see me, they will point out my mistakes behind my back. I will embarrass my parents, my brothers and sisters, and I will feel that I am better off dead. What's the point of me living?”As she spoke, she started sobbing.
"Don't be too sad. It's better for such a shameless person to leave as soon as possible.”
Shang Liu Xin stopped crying and said,"That's right, if I didn't have the surgery, I would have given birth by now." Look at me now. My reputation is ruined. How am I going to live in the future? It's all my fault. It's all that bastard's fault. He made me look like a ghost. He really deserves to die. He caused me to be like this. Do I still have happiness? Is there a future?"
Zheng Qinglan suddenly felt impulsive and blurted out,""Why not? Perhaps there will be a better and more humane man who will enter your life.”
"There won't be. I'm an unwanted woman. I've already had a child with someone else. Which refreshing boy would want me? Someone introduced me to a man whose woman died. They already treat me as a married woman.”
"Don't worry, there will be. There will definitely be.”
Shang Liu Xin muttered, as if she was answering Zheng Qinglan, but also as if she was talking to herself,"There won't be. I've already given up on myself.”
"No matter what, you have to think it through. You'll get better slowly in the future. It's getting late. I should go over.”
When Zheng Qinglan came out of Shang Liuxin's room, she saw Lan Guiying standing in the light and looking over. Seeing Zheng Qinglan come out, she waved her hand to signal him to come over. Zheng Qinglan pretended not to see it and walked into her room. Lan Guiying shouted anxiously,"Brother, come here. I have something to tell you.”Zheng Qinglan had no choice but to turn around and walk over.
"Brother, what are you still doing with that girl at a time like this?”
"Sister-in-law, I didn't argue with her. We just had a few words.”
"Yo, talk. You really know how to talk. You're a lonely man and she's a widowed woman. Both of you are young and full of vigor, especially her. She used to have a man. That man doesn't want her anymore. She was a woman who had been played by others. It was not worth it.”
"Sister-in-law, don't think too much. We're not that kind of people.”
"I don't know if you're casual or not, but everyone knows if she's casual or not. You don't know yet, do you? She slept together with the man less than a week after knowing him. They even had a child. The man lied to her and ignored her after he aborted the child. She cried all day until her eyes were swollen. A few days ago, I asked you if you heard anyone crying, but you said you didn't know. You said you didn't hear anything. Aren't you deliberately covering for her? In my opinion, that man is a dog that deserves to be stabbed a thousand times. This Shang girl is also shameless. She hadn't seen a man for eight hundred years, yet he was so anxious to send her to his bed after knowing her for less than a week. She had seen cheap men, but she had never seen such cheap men. She had seen anxious men, but she had never seen such anxious men.”
"Sister-in-law, don't talk about her like that. You don't understand the situation.”
"I don't understand the situation? You're the only one who doesn't know about this place. Ask anyone in this mine and see who doesn't know. You can go to every household below and ask around to see which one doesn't know. Brother, don't be so blind. Be careful that you don't know even if I trick you into it. Fu Qian treated you so well and came all the way to see you. She was willing to spend money and work hard for you. It's your blessing to be able to find such a girl. You should know what's good for you, but you actually made her run away in anger. Let me tell you, I don't have a mouth. If you're not sure what to do, I might tell Fu Qian. Let's see if you have the guts.”
"Sister-in-law, don't worry. I have my own principles.”After saying that, she left. Lan Guiying looked like a person with a strong appetite who was only half full before her food was taken away. She watched Zheng Qinglan leave and talked to herself for a while. Zheng Guangrong urged her several times in the room before she went in.
"You stare at others all day long like you're catching a thief. What does it have to do with you? Aren't you afraid that others will scold you?”
"I'm standing at the door of my own house. I didn't lean on the window to look, nor did I open the door to look. Who cares? If she doesn't want to see, she won't do it.”
"What's the use of saying that all day long? Who's listening to you?”
"Who says that all day? I don't even know if he's human or not. I can't stand seeing good people being wronged and evil people getting lucky. " Look, Zheng Qinglan is a brother of the Zheng family. Can't you tell? She's honest, kind-hearted, and a bookworm. She'd rather suffer losses than satisfy others. Such people are the easiest to be deceived." Who is this Shang Liu Xin? Her nickname is ***, she is very cunning and bold. She dares to do anything. At this time, she still called Qing Lan into her room. It doesn't matter if she's shameless. Anyway, it's just that. Your brother is a clean young man. We can't let that Shang guy ruin his reputation.”
"Since you know that Qinglan is an honest person, you should be at ease.”
"Honest is honest, but no matter how honest he is, he's still a man. How could he withstand the seduction of a person like Shang Liu Xin? He tricked Qing Lan into her bed in a few moves. It's not that she can't do such a thing. She's someone who has tasted a man's taste.”
"Shang Liu Xin is a woman, and you are also a woman. This woman is in trouble, so as a woman, you should go and persuade her. Why did you say all these words to hit her when she's down and even make them sound so unpleasant?”
Lan Guiying was furious." Zheng Guangrong, say it again. Am I a woman like her?" Back then, when I was dating you, I went to your house once. You wanted to skin me alive when there were only the two of us at home. Have you forgotten that I let you have your way? If you had succeeded so early, you would have thought that I was a slut. Would you still trust me? Humph, she, Shang Liu Xin, was nothing but a pig or dog in heat. As long as it was a male, she would let it go. If such a rotten thing didn't cherish herself, who would cherish her? She deserved it. Don't look down on me, I'm already over forty. She's only twenty-two or twenty-three. I'm more precious than her.”
"Don't say it. That's true. That time, you pushed me away and even scratched my hand. I was a little angry at you at that time, but after thinking about it, I respected you even more. We've been married for so many years, and I've never been worried. I've heard people say that you'll be stuck with a bad woman, hang out with a slut, and run around with a good woman. Thinking about it, it makes sense.”
"Where did you hear this sentence? It rhymes. What does it mean?”
"It means that if a man meets a whore, he will sleep with her. If he met a frivolous woman, his days would be restless and he could only muddle along. If he met a good woman, he would live a down-to-earth life and focus on moving forward. Only then would he be at ease, comfortable, and have a goal. Only such a man and woman would not waste their time in this world.”
"Who did you hear that from? Why haven't I heard you mention it before?”
"Who's talking about this for no reason? Didn't we say this now?”
Lan Guiying squinted her eyes and asked,"Are you sleepy, or are you running?"”
Zheng Guangrong squinted at Lan Guiying and answered her with a faint smile,""You already know the answer. I've been married for so many years, and I've always listened to you. I've never flicked your fingernail or scolded you. I believe that you're a good woman. I'm especially satisfied to live with you.”After saying that, he suddenly picked up Lan Guiying and pressed her on the bed. He stripped her clothes and pressed her on the bed. Lan Guiying pretended to struggle a few times and coiled around Zheng Guangrong like a snake. She mumbled," Glory…Glory, you…you're going to…take my life…"
On Saturday morning, Zheng Qinglan sorted out the collected materials and her feelings. She made an outline and prepared to report to Director Luo in the afternoon. After lunch, he put on his backpack and took Fu Qian's tape recorder. Although he liked to listen to music, he felt that listening to music would delay a lot of things. In order to achieve something, he had to make sacrifices, so he brought the recorder with him. The night before, Captain Dong said that he wanted to come up to the well and take him to the bus, but Zheng Qinglan said that they were doing safety construction in the well and couldn't leave him, so she refused. After walking for more than an hour, Zheng Qinglan arrived at the entrance of Jin Zhu's shop. She didn't see Jin Zhu and his wife. Only Jin Ling was sitting in the shop reading a book. Jin Ling was wearing a lotus-colored windbreaker today. It was elegant and plain, making her skin look even more delicate and smooth. Coupled with her focused expression, Zheng Qinglan was stunned. After a while, Jin Ling raised her head and saw Zheng Qinglan staring at her in a daze. She blushed and said,""Brother Qinglan, why are you here? Are you out of paper and ink again? Don't stand outside. Come in and sit. I'll pour you some tea.”
Zheng Qinglan smiled embarrassedly and said,""Tomorrow is Sunday. I've been out for half a month. I'll go back early this afternoon and report to the leader about my work here. Where are Brother Jin Zhu and Sister-in-law?"
"They all went to the city."
"Are you going to stock up? Didn't Jinzhu go alone in the past?”
"It's not just about purchasing goods, there's something else. My brother wants to open a shop in the city. He said that there are many people in the city and they are willing to spend money.”
"Oh, I see."
"Brother Qinglan, when you came to buy vegetables last time, I wasn't at home. I went to borrow some books. Weren't you eating in the cafeteria?”
"We have guests."
"Is it a male or female guest?"
"Yes…yes…"
"Hahaha, even if you don't say it, I know. It must be a female guest. She must be your girlfriend.”
"Yes, she left after lunch.”
"Brother Qinglan, you don't have to go into so much detail. I'm not here to check your household registration, hahaha.”
"You really know how to joke, hehe."
"When are you coming back?"
" I'll be back on Monday morning."
"When the time comes, I'll ride my bike to send you in, okay? In case you have to walk in again after you get off the car, you can get off here and I'll ride you.”
"There's no need. I'll stop at the station ahead. It's only one or two miles in.”
"Brother Qinglan, how can you be like this? He sincerely helped you but you didn't accept it.”
"If you say so, then I'm sorry.”
"Deal."
