Chapter 162: Persecution
Amy thought about it, she didn't go to her after she came back this afternoon, she was locked in the room by herself, no wonder Minke mistakenly thought she was angry. She hurriedly explained:
"I'm reading in my room this afternoon, we've been here for so many days, and the book in my hand hasn't been touched much, I'm afraid I'll forget these things when I go back, so I'll take them out and review them today,"
"Oh, didn't you say it earlier, I also took a few books, let's read them together later, if you don't understand anything, you can discuss it."
Mingke gulped down and proposed, taking advantage of the lack of something in his mouth.
"Okay, let's eat it then!"
The two of them quickly settled the dinner, and went to the table to review their homework.
The next day, the two went to the train station early in the morning to buy tickets back to Baili Town in the afternoon.
"Hello comrade, I'll buy two train tickets to Baili Town."
Amy lay on the platform of the train station and handed over the money in her hand.
"Wait a minute"
After saying that, the conductor turned around and checked, and then replied:
"Hello, the train ticket to Baili Town is only at 6 pm, do you want it?"
"Yes, please order two for us."
After a while, the conductor handed out two tickets from the window.
Amy reached out and took it, then handed one of them to Minco, and said to him:
"You have to put it away, if you lose it, you won't be able to go back to the village."
"I know, I'm not a three-year-old anymore, you better mind yourself!"
Ming Ke lowered his head and put the train ticket into the pocket that Grandma Wang sewed into the inside of the Zhongshan suit, then buttoned the small pocket, and then tidied up the Zhongshan suit and patted the position of the train ticket on his chest.
Seeing him like this, Amy laughed out loud:
"Don't be so nervous, it's already in your pocket, how can you lose it."
Ming Ke also realized that he was exaggerating, coughed a little uncomfortably, and then turned around and left seriously.
Amy hurriedly followed.
The two had a little breakfast outside first, then returned to the travel agency, packed their things and waited for the evening to leave.
After a while, Ai Mu and Ai Lian walked in noisily:
"Mom, let's go back, Xiaomi said she didn't want to marry that fool, so don't force her."
"If she doesn't marry, we will have to double the subscription money of other people, you also know the situation of our family, where can I get so much money. Besides, it's just for her to get engaged to that man, not for her to marry now...... Forget it, forget it, I can't make sense with you, you get up for me. ”
Ai Mu reached out and pulled Ai Lian away, and walked in alone.
She saw Amy packing her luggage, snatched the woven bag in her hand, and asked her a little anxiously:
"What are you doing here? Anyway, you were born to me, do you hate me so much? As soon as you hear my voice, you have to leave. ”
"I'm done with things, then I must leave, otherwise, those GIs will come to arrest me, you don't really want to see the GIs find you on the head, and then remove that one!"
Amy reluctantly snatched the bag back from her hand, and then continued to pack the contents of the bed.
At this time, Elaine also walked in, she saw Amy packing her things, and couldn't help but shed tears, her sister didn't come to Jiangcheng for many days, and she couldn't even go home, so she could only stay in this guest house, and finally rested by herself today, I wanted to talk to her for a while, and ask her how she was doing in the village, but she was leaving.
Hearing the choked voice behind her, Amy turned her head and saw Elaine, and said very happily:
"Sister, you're here,"
Then he walked up to her in a few more strides and wiped the tears from her face:
"Okay, it's not like I'm not coming back, next time I come back, I'll go to the house and call you over, and the two of us sisters will have a good chat."
Seeing her sister comforting herself in turn, Elaine's heart became more and more uncomfortable, she hugged Amy and cried louder and louder, and couldn't help but regret why she didn't take a day off to come over to accompany her sister.
Ai Mu stood on the ground and looked at the sisters who were hugging each other, especially Elaine, who was crying very much, her heart was a little sour, and she was not so disgusted when she saw Amy's figure, she thought:
If we have a big place in our house, I don't mind Amy coming back for a few days, and when I have money, I will definitely change to a big house, so that all four of you sisters can have a place to sleep, and when I have money, I can buy a radio for Qianjian.
However, in the end, the Ai family still has no money, and even meat can only be eaten once a month, thinking of this, Ai's mother's heart hardened, no matter what, she had to let Amy get engaged to the dead fat man, so as to temporarily alleviate the poverty of the family.
She walked up to the two sisters who were hugging and crying, squatted down, stretched out her hand and patted Amy's shoulder, and said very kindly:
"Child, cry if you want to!"
When Amy heard such a gentle voice, she didn't slow down for a moment, raised her head and looked at her mother seriously, wondering if she had fallen into evil today.
But what Ai Mu said next made her reject this conjecture, and she looked at herself gently, and said:
"Xiaomi, don't blame your mother for being ruthless, I really can't help it, as long as you go to that family's house with your mother to get engaged now, I won't force you anymore, even if you don't want to live with him, I don't mind if you take out the money to divorce that man."
Ai Mu was reluctant to do this, but after thinking about it, it seemed that since Amy came back from the countryside, she had never heard their words, it was simply soft and hard, and if she forcibly asked her to marry that stupid man, she would definitely not agree, so Ai Mu used a roundabout tactic.
After listening to Ai's mother's words, Amy instantly understood, it turned out that Ai's mother didn't want to spit it out again after taking the money, so she had to send herself to get engaged, and as for whether she wanted to withdraw from the marriage in the future, it depended on whether she had money or not.
Even if she earns money and withdraws from the marriage, Ai's mother has no loss, but can still gain a good reputation for loving her daughter, after all, the marriage of the children is now the words of the matchmaker at the behest of the parents, and the divorce is only agreed by the family, and she can still do it when she meets the rich family again. Ai Mu is really a good abacus.
Amy now really doubts whether the original body was born to Ai's mother, why every time she sees her, she either sells her by calculation, or calculates the money on her.
"I don't agree with this marriage, who of you wants to marry, doesn't Elle listen to you very much, is she your good daughter? If you have the ability, you let her marry her. ”
Amy turned her head and glanced at Ai Mu coldly, her eyes were full of mockery, as if she was saying to Ai Mu, "If you cause trouble yourself, wipe your butt yourself." ”
Ai Mu didn't seem to see the emotion in his eyes, and said without changing her face:
"Your child's marriage was told to you by me and your father, how can you say that you gave it to your second sister and gave it to your second sister!"
"I'll say it one last time, I'm not engaged, besides, I'm leaving today, if I miss the train because of this incident, I'll go and blow myself up, let the GIs simply arrest me and send me to the countryside to see what you do!"
This sentence made the smile on Ai's mother's face stiffen, and the next second, he accused her:
"Then you say, I have already received the subscription money from others, if you don't marry, I will compensate double the money, how can we have so much money in our family!"
"I don't care, anyway, it's not what I want from others, how you take it yourself, how to return it."
The word "repay" made Ai's mother's body fall directly to the ground as soon as she softened, and started the mode of crying, making trouble and hanging herself.
Amy was a little troubled by her noise, and quickly covered her ears.
Elaine recovered from her grief, she looked at her sister who was covering her ears with her hands, and then at her sad mother who was sitting on the ground crying, and walked to her mother in three steps and two steps to pull her up:
"Mom, get up quickly, you see a lot of people watching us outside!"
When Ai Mu heard this, she turned her head to look, and there were indeed several people on the door and constantly looking inside the room.
She yelled: "What do you see, haven't you ever seen a woman cry?" ”
After speaking, the people at the door dispersed in a hurry, and then Ai's mother looked at her eldest daughter again and cried:
"Xiaolian, mother's life is hard, first let your grandma bully her all her life, and finally separated from her, and then let Amy's dead girl bully, where do you say I can find so much money for her, she gets engaged first and then earns a few dollars by herself, can't you just withdraw the marriage?"
Elaine patted Ai's mother's quilt and comforted: "Mom, don't cry, you don't have so much money, but don't I go to work?" And I've heard that our factory will be paying in the next few days, and we'll definitely be able to make it up when the time comes. ”
When Ai Mu heard his words, she stopped crying, stretched out her hand and slapped her the back, saying:
"Give your salary to others, what do our family eat, we are almost out of food these days, can't we buy some food after opening our salary?"
She said as she looked at Amy with her peripheral eyes, hoping to see the slightest hint of unbearability on her face.
But Ai Mu was destined to be disappointed, and saw Amy leaning against the table, playing with her low placket with both hands, and she didn't care.
Seeing this, Ai Mu felt that her breathing was not smooth, and she inhaled and glared at Amy with her eyes.
Seeing this, Elaine was in a hurry, and turned around and called Amy:
"Xiaomi, you say, what should I do? Mom, nothing will happen! ”
Since Amy helped her find a way to get rid of Qian Xiaojun, Elaine unconsciously regarded this sister as her backbone, and wanted to discuss something with her.
Amy walked over, looked at Amy, laughed and said:
"You unbutton the first button of her tunic suit."
