Chapter 66: The Vengeful Woman
When Yi Songjuan came down from the mountain with a basket of herbs on her back, it was already evening, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone in the forest, making people feel a special kind of tranquility. When she walked along the mountain road to the intersection at the bend at the foot of the mountain, she found Ling Yuan standing there alone, and she thought to herself, who was she waiting for? She thought about going around, but Ling Yuan had already walked towards her, so she had to stop and stand there.
The two women looked at each other at the silent intersection, Ling Yuan took two steps closer to her, stopped and stood on the side of the road, looked at her and asked, "I am not uncommon Du Shaoyou, although he and I are childhood sweethearts, our feelings for him are only very ordinary." The forest farm is a small place, we can only be regarded as frogs at the bottom of the well, no matter how hard we struggle, we can't jump into the well, and we can't see the more wonderful world outside. I'm just a little curious, why are you eyeing him, can you tell me what the reason is? ”
Yi Songjuan turned her head to look at a meadow not far away, where two chickadees kept jumping, you and I were pecking at something, and no one wanted to let anyone. The two birds held each other for a while, and finally one of the defeated chickadees flew away reluctantly, and the other flapped its wings with its booty in its mouth, and the meadow was silent again. Yi Songjuan thought in her heart: Will there be such rights and wrongs between them?
Yi Songjuan looked at the birds flying away, and turned her head to look at Ling Yuan: "You may not believe me when I say it, that night, nothing happened to me and him." He just drank too much and went where others thought he shouldn't be, and he got into my bed by himself. What should I do? I'm not going to ask him to leave, it's okay if you say I like him, or if you say I'm a shameless woman, he'll lie down anyway. I didn't ask him to stay, he stayed after he got drunk. ”
When Yi Songjuan said this, the corners of her mouth unconsciously showed a smile: "I can't think of any reason not to let him stay, and I can't think of any reason to let him leave." I know that after this happens, no matter what form he leaves, no matter when he leaves, this thing will happen, the truth will never change, and it will definitely cause a storm. It's just that I'm not going to stop it from happening, and to be honest, I'm just watching it happen like an outsider. ”
Ling Yuan obviously didn't understand Yi Songjuan's words, she was still deeply resentful, and just forced it in her heart: "Are you watching a joke? No, you're playing a joke, it's all something you made up on purpose. Why are you doing this? Originally, we didn't interfere with the water of the well, so there is no reason for you to put on such a show. ”
Yi Songjuan looked at Ling Yuan calmly: "I can bear what others say about me, I can say anything, I don't care what I say, and I don't care." Because, since I was a child, I was used to people saying irresponsible things to me, and I didn't feel any of these things anymore. But I can't stand the discriminatory eyes of others like thieves, and you know that this kind of vision kills? I couldn't stand it when someone threw my face on the ground and trampled it under my feet like a weed on the side of the road. ”
When Yi Songjuan said this, there was a sense of indignation in her heart, which encouraged her and dominated her: "Some people always stand on the high branch of morality, always think that they are higher than others in personality, never stand in the perspective of others, think about others, they will never know how to empathize." As a woman, do I have no face? Do I have no self-esteem? Don't I have my rights? Why should people think that I am a bad woman, who knows the truth of everything? Did he ask the reason for what was happening? Why put all the blame on a woman for no reason. ”
Ling Yuan seemed to remember something: "Are you holding a grudge against my father?" Are you talking about your divorce from your husband? Your husband is my father's own nephew, your husband's parents died early, and he grew up under my father's care since he was a child, when you want to divorce him, can't my father care about it? ”
Yi Songjuan looked at Ling Yuan with an innocent face: "How does it matter to your father to care about his nephew is his right, what I still can't understand is why he turned a blind eye to his nephew's violence?" Turning a blind eye to my pain? Do you know how your father cared for me in the first place? I showed the scars on my body to my father, and he didn't show any sympathy, what did he say? He said: You are a shameless woman, your husband beat you, do you want to show the wound to everyone? He also said: The affairs between husband and wife are family affairs, family affairs can only be resolved at home, and matters between husband and wife can only be solved by the husband and wife themselves. ”
She looked at Ling Yuan, who was full of resentment, and said: "Let me ask your father: your nephew has never been willing to listen to me and reason with him, as long as I say something that he is not satisfied with, he will punch and kick me, can it be solved between husband and wife?" Can I only be beaten by him? Do you know what your father said? Your father said, "Men are bad because women are not virtuous." Women are cheap, and men will become bad if they are good; If a woman is good, a man will be good if he is bad. Why does your father think that his nephew is bad because I am a cheap woman? Not only did your father treat me unfairly in this matter, but his nephew was drunk and had a work-related accident, which became my fault in his eyes. Is it I asking him to drink so much? Or did I push him off a cliff? Why does your father always blame me for all his faults? Is it because he thinks I'm a mean woman? Why does he think I'm a? ”
Ling Yuan sneered, "I understand. So, you're going to take revenge on me? No matter what my father did to you? What was said to you? Does this have anything to do with me? Is this the reason why you pulled Du Shaoyou to your bed? You have humiliated me, but you have also humiliated yourself, and in this forest farm, if you can find out a person who thinks you are right to do this, I will admit that I am wrong, why do you do something that thousands of people scold you? ”
The corners of Yi Songjuan's mouth twitched, and she couldn't hold back what she wanted to say, she now sympathized with the woman who questioned herself: "What can I do?" How can you pull a groom who belongs to someone else to the bed of a like me? Why do you think it's all my fault? You are also a woman, why do you and your father agree so much? Why should all the mistakes made by a man be credited to a woman? Why should I be asked to explain what others do? Why should I be held accountable for what others have done? Can you tell me why? ”
Ling Yuan opened her mouth to say something, but in the end she was speechless, she could only watch Yi Songjuan carry the medicine basket and walk over from in front of her as if no one was around, until Yi Songjuan walked away, she sighed, and turned around and left silently.
Ling Yuan knew something about Yi Songjuan and his husband who had been arguing for a divorce, Yi Songjuan's husband was often drunk, and when he was drunk, he would beat Yi Songjuan all over his body, and Yi Songjuan would sometimes show the wounds to other women. After Yi Songjuan's husband found out, not only did he not repent, but he also thought that she had lost face by doing so, and his beating and scolding of Yi Songjuan intensified. Later, although Yi Songjuan did not mention the divorce again, her husband died in an accident after a drunken accident. Ling Yuan's father suspected that the incident was related to Yi Songjuan, so he went to the police station to report the case. However, after an investigation, the public security organs eliminated all suspicions. Yi Songjuan knew that Ling Yuan's father reported the case, and since then, she has an unsolvable resentment towards Lao Ling in her heart.
There will always be all kinds of boring and endless topics in life, which people talk about and then gradually forget about them. The divorce of Ling Yuan and Du Shaoyou was also chewed and chewed between people's tongues, and finally became tasteless. The people of Phoenix Mountain Forest Farm have other new and interesting things after tea and dinner.
Only the parties involved in this matter will still not let go easily, and they will have all kinds of struggles. Since Ling Yuan had a conversation with Yi Songjuan, she also knew the cause of this incident, so she looked at it from a different perspective, and slowly she herself felt that she had become an outsider, she was just playing the role of a bride, and the new person who was lying on someone else's bed had nothing to do with her, at least now she had nothing to do with it. If his father once hurt Yi Songjuan intentionally or unintentionally, it has become an old account in the past, and the two sides are cleared.
No one knows where Du Shaoyou went, since Ling Yuan and Du Shaoyou divorced, he seemed to have disappeared from the world. Since this incident, Du Shaoyou's father has been seriously ill, and after recovering from his illness, his spirit is not as good as before, he always keeps his head down when he walks, others don't greet him, and he won't take the initiative to say hello as before, as if everyone has suddenly become strangers. Lao Du used to be a very enthusiastic person, as long as you know him in the forest farm, you know that he is a good person, he never does anything sorry for others, and he never likes to take advantage of the collective.
Ling Yuan's father, Lao Ling, also seems to have become a frosted old eggplant, he used to walk and talk in a hurry, and he always likes to come out of the woods when there is anything going on in the forest farm, even if it is none of his business, he also likes to come up with an idea from the side. No matter how big or small, you can always see him and always hear his voice.
After Ling Yuan and Du Shaoyou divorced, after lying sullenly at home for a few days, he got up and drank a stuffy meal alone, and the next day he found that his throat was hoarse, and it would hurt as long as he exerted a little force. Ling Yuan wanted to find a doctor for him to take a look, but he refused: "No need, this is a sin I have created in my life." In the past, it was said that people talked too much, and there was no accumulation of morality, and now they will suffer this kind of punishment. This is to ask me not to talk too much in the future, and not to mind other people's affairs. What doctor to see? I willingly accept this punishment, which is called self-inflicted, but I don't deserve it on you. ”
Lao Ling saw Lao Du on the road and stopped greeting him, and the two of them seemed to have become strangers, and the two families no longer interacted. Sometimes, Lao Ling walked far past Lao Du, and Lao Du looked back at Lao Ling's obviously somewhat rickety figure, which was once tall and straight, as if it was a little shorter. Lao Du sighed and said to himself: "Old friend, I'm sorry for you, it doesn't matter if you forgive me or not, it's that evil animal in my family who harmed the girl in your family, I'm sorry for you." ”
