Don't panic if your home is confiscated or you are exiled, just empty the warehouse and stock u

Mother Chen rushed forward and grabbed her arm without saying anything, her voice sharp and angry: "You bitch, I'm going to make it clear to you today. If you want to step into our Chen family, I have to die!"

Jiang Nianwei quickly stepped forward and stood in front of Le Yao, who had a numb look in her eyes.

"Aunt, you are really going too far."

While calming down Chen's mother's agitation, she winked at Chunyu to go find Chen Wang quickly.

He is the most crucial person in this matter. If he is not present, the dispute will be difficult to resolve.

Mother Chen was still not giving in. "How is that too much? Isn't Le Yao a prostitute who has been ridden by thousands of men? Have I ever said anything untrue? She is filthy and yet she still wants to become my son's wife. She is simply dreaming!"

Jiang Nianwei frowned and thought. No one here has ever talked about Le Yao's background. Who knew about this and spread it everywhere?

The quarrel was so loud that it attracted a group of villagers to watch.

Ping Ping bit her lip and asked unwillingly, "Miss Jiang, I know you have done a favor to our village, but I really don't know why you want to keep such a person around? Wouldn't it ruin your reputation?"

Jiang Nianwei protected Le Yao behind her and explained loudly: "A person's kindness has nothing to do with what she has experienced. I saved Le Yao, so I have the obligation to protect her. Besides, you said she seduced Chen Wang, but Chen Wang told me in person that they were just ordinary friends. And you, Pingping, do you really want to stay with someone who doesn't care about you for the rest of your life?"

Ping Ping naturally wouldn't figure this out just because of her words. "Marriage is a big deal, and parents should make the decision. Besides, Awang and I grew up together, so it's only natural that we should be together."

As soon as Ping Ping finished speaking, Chen Wang came rushing over, his face full of anxiety: "Mom, what nonsense are you talking about? Don't embarrass yourself here. Let's go quickly."

But Chen's mother remained motionless, her eyes stubborn as she said, "What I said is true. Do you still remember that Bao Laoliu? He was the one who came back from Nanling. He once told me in person that he saw a top girl in a brothel. She looked exactly like Le Yao, even their names were the same. How could there be such an amazing coincidence?"

Le Yao hid behind Jiang Nianwei, pursed her lips, and said nothing until Chen Wang's complicated eyes fell on her, and she couldn't stop trembling.

She took a difficult step, walked out from Jiang Nianwei's protection, and faced the scrutiny of everyone: "I was indeed a prostitute, but now I have changed my ways and no longer do that kind of business. But I was also an ordinary peasant girl before. If my family had not been poor and sold me to a brothel to earn money for my brother to marry a wife, how could I have fallen to this point."

Bao Laoliu, the man Chen's mother had mentioned, finally appeared. He said jokingly, "That sounds really nice, but you were a prostitute. Even if you become a good woman, you can't erase that experience."

However, his eyes were looking at Le Yao in an obscene way, which reminded her of the previous guests. Le Yao felt extremely disgusted.

Jiang Nianwei frowned slightly, feeling uneasy.

This Bao Laoliu was not a good person. The cunning light flashing in his eyes made her realize that there must be something fishy behind this.

"Chen Wang!" Chen's mother's voice suddenly became sharp and resolute. "You swear right here in front of this woman that you will never marry her. If you break your oath and insist on marrying her, I will commit suicide here tomorrow and never live in humiliation!"

Chen Wang was extremely conflicted. He knelt in front of Chen's mother and said, "Mom, don't joke about life and death."

Mother Chen's tone became more and more fierce, pressing her step by step, "Are you going to tell me or not? If you don't, I will bang my head against this wall and die!"

The two men were in a stalemate here, Chen Wang kept his lips tightly closed, refusing to utter a word.

Suddenly, a clear and powerful voice was heard: "Enough! Stop making noise!"

Jing Qiudie was originally tending to the vegetable garden when she heard a commotion outside her house and rushed back.

Seeing the scene in front of her, Jing Qiudie frowned, "Sister, why do you have to do this? Although I didn't see your argument just now, I heard a little bit. Is it really worth it for you to make such a fuss? Matters of life and death are not to be trifled with. This kind of tossing and turning is really ugly."

When Jiang Nianwei saw her mother coming out, she stopped talking. Her mother's skills were more profound than hers.

"Le Yao, come here." Jing Qiudie's voice softened. "You and Chen Wang have nothing to do with each other. Today, you need to tell her that you have nothing to do with him now, and you will not have any intersection with him in the future."

Le Yao nodded, and said firmly, "Chen Wang and I have never had any involvement, and this is the case now and in the future. Please don't keep nagging about this matter anymore."

Seeing Jing Qiudie's strong aura and Le Yao's clear statement, Chen's mother could only leave with Pingping unwillingly.

By the way, he also pulled Chen Wang, who was reluctant to leave, and said, "What are you looking at? Go home quickly!"

Chen Wang looked back every few steps and had to leave slowly under his mother's urging.

Until the villagers dispersed, only Bao Laoliu remained there, looking at Le Yao with his sneaky eyes with ill intentions.

“Miss Le Yao, I have admired you for a long time. Now everyone knows your past. There is no possibility for you and Chen Wang to be together anymore. Why don’t you come back with me? I am willing to support you.”

She glanced at Bao Laoliu coldly, "Why did you insult me ​​like this? I wonder why you have such dirty thoughts. I tell you, Bao Laoliu, I will not be with a despicable and shameless man like you. You were short of money before and couldn't get close to me. Now that I am down and out, you can't even think of coveting me!"

It turned out that when she was in a brothel, Bao Laoliu had harassed her, but he didn't have enough money. He was still shameless and begged the beauty to spend a night with him, but in the end he was beaten and kicked out, and he held a grudge against her.

Now, in order to get her, he resorted to such despicable means.

Bao Laoliu sneered and said with contempt, "How ridiculous! Such an ungrateful whore, who is just a prostitute, still claims to have backbone? Humph, I want to see how long your backbone can last. One day, you will kneel down in front of me like a stray dog, begging for my mercy and asking me to take you in!"

"How dare you spit foul language in front of my house, insult the Jiang family, and treat us like nothing?"

There was a gleam of sharpness in Jiang Nianwei's eyes. She picked up a stone and threw it towards Bao Laoliu without mercy.

Although the stone was small, it was powerful enough to hit Bao Laoliu's forehead accurately, and blood instantly gushed out of his forehead.

He covered his wound and complained loudly: "Everyone calls the Jiang family a good family, but they are full of filth. You call yourselves good, but you associate with prostitutes. It's really disgusting. Listen to me, I will tell the government everything and make you pay for your actions. You are sinners, how dare you be the enemy of the government?"

Thinking of this, Bao Laoliu laughed triumphantly, and his laughter became more and more arrogant.

When he said this, Jiang Nianwei knew that this man could not be kept.

I have finally been able to live a peaceful life, and I cannot let it be ruined by such a villain.

After Bao Laoliu disappeared from her sight, she asked her eldest brother to keep an eye on his movements.

If he dared to step out of the island and report to the authorities, his tongue would be cut off.

Le Yao's mood became increasingly heavy. "Ms. Jiang, I originally thought I could spend the rest of my life here in peace, but now I'm afraid that's impossible."

Jiang Nianwei could understand her feelings. Born in the lower class, she wondered when she would be able to control her own destiny.

She shook her head helplessly and asked again: "Then let me ask you, what are your feelings for Chen Wang? Do you really have no relationship at all?"

Le Yao lowered her eyelids and sighed softly: "Chen Wang is a good man, he is hardworking and capable, honest and simple. He once asked me if I was willing to marry him. I did waver, but now it seems that it is better to be alone like this."

There was a trace of determination on her face, as if she had made up her mind, "Ms. Jiang, I am sorry for what happened to you today. You were obviously thinking about me, but I still implicated you and made you suffer insults for no reason. I have made up my mind to leave here."

Today, she explored Chen Wang's character in detail, and the villagers praised him for being honest and simple-minded.

Jiang Nianwei pondered for a moment and said, "Will you regret leaving like this? Since you have a good impression of him, why don't we try to see if Chen Wang is worthy of your lifelong trust? If not, it won't be too late for you to leave."

Le Yao was confused, "How do I try this?"

Jiang Nianwei leaned close to her ear and whispered her inner plan, "I have a plan..."

"This way, even if the two of you fail, you can put everything aside, leave here decisively, and start over without any worries."

Le Yao pondered for a long time, and finally sighed slowly, "Well, as the young lady said, I will give it a try." She didn't want to leave any regrets for the next life.

After Chen Wang returned, he started arguing with his mother, "Mom, why did you do this? You insisted on forcing me to marry Pingping. You knew it was impossible, but now you want to ruin my marriage!"

Chen's mother spoke sternly, not giving in at all. "Can you really let such a whore into your house? You don't find her status dirty, but I feel ashamed! Look at how good Pingping is, a virgin girl who grew up with you..."

Chen Wang interrupted her with an angry roar: "Enough, my feelings for Pingping are only brotherly and sisterly. I have never had any feelings for her. Why can't you understand me? Why can't you let me choose my own future? A woman's purity lies in her heart, not in her body. Mother, you were also a widow, and then you married my father. Why can't you understand the hardships of women!"

"Le Yao was once trapped in prostitution. She had no choice but to do so. When I learned about her past, what surged in my heart was not contempt or alienation, but deep pity and sadness. The time I spent with her was the time I felt truly alive!"

Chen Wang knew he couldn't stay at home any longer, so he packed some clothes and said, "I'll live on the fishing boat for the next few days."

Mother Chen was still hurt by her son's sharp words, and an expression of shame that was difficult to conceal was revealed on her face.

"Son, I'm doing this for your own good." She murmured to herself, with a hint of helplessness in her voice, "Why can't you understand my good intentions?"

The next morning, the dawn broke.

The seaside was bustling, but Chen Wang, who slept on a fishing boat, could not sleep all night, thinking about every little detail of his time with Le Yao.

Although he didn't spend much time with her, he knew that her gentleness was not superficial weakness, but the tenacity and courage hidden in her bones.

When he caught some fish, he would bring the fish to her house to apologize and kneel down to beg for her forgiveness.

Suddenly, there was a burst of rapid noise at the beach, and the children shouted in fear: "Someone jumped into the sea! Save him!"

As soon as Chen Wang heard the noise, he immediately jumped out of the fishing boat and rushed towards the sea cliff.

I saw Le Yao standing on the cliff, her face pale, her blue dress fluttering gently in the sea breeze.

When Chen Wang saw that the person was Le Yao, his heart sank instantly.

He anxiously wanted to get closer to her, stretched out his hand, and tried to pull her back from the dangerous edge.

His heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand, hanging in the air, unable to land.

"Le Yao, please don't do anything stupid!" He shouted loudly, his voice full of anxiety and self-blame. "What happened yesterday was my mother's unreasonable behavior, which made you feel wronged. This is all my fault. I didn't help you in time. I apologize to you and ask for your forgiveness!"

Her voice was hoarse and firm, like a candle flame swaying in the wind, weak but firm.

"Chen Wang, this matter has nothing to do with you. I just... really feel tired. I have tried my best to live in this world, so why can't the world tolerate me?"

"Don't do anything stupid. It's all my fault. I love you and I want to marry you! I will protect you for the rest of my life! I will never let you suffer such injustice again."

Her hair fluttered in the sea breeze, and she smiled resolutely, "If I die, don't miss me, just live well."

She turned around resolutely and jumped into the sea. When her light figure finally merged into the endless blue waves, Chen Wang suddenly woke up from his dream. He instinctively stretched out his trembling hand and tried to grab her sleeve that was fluttering in the wind.

Chen Wang only saw the waves splashing on the sea, nothing else. He felt a heart-wrenching pain and jumped into the sea without hesitation, looking for her voice everywhere until he was exhausted, but still returned in vain.

He knelt on the beach and wanted to shout, but his throat seemed to be blocked by something.

When Chen's mother arrived, she saw him in such a miserable state.

Seeing his mother's anxious figure appear, Chen Wang's eyes finally flashed with a trace of emotion, "She...she died. We forced her into a desperate situation. Mother, why are you so cruel?"

Chen's mother rushed over, her eyes full of pity and sorrow. She reached out her hand and tried to comfort her son, "Son, you have to know that she chose that path herself. It's not your fault."

He stood up suddenly and walked towards the rough sea with firm steps.

Chen's mother panicked. She grabbed her son's sleeve and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Chen Wang, you can't go! You can't give up yourself for someone who has already left!"

But Chen Wang's eyes were full of determination. He broke free from his mother's hand and continued to walk towards the sea.

"I want to find Le Yao. She died for me. I can't let her go alone. I want to stay with her."

Chen's mother watched him walk into the sea. She tried to pull him out but was pushed back by the waves. She wanted to ask for help but there was no one around, not other villagers.

Regret welled up in his heart. If he had known this would be the result, he should have let him marry that woman. At least that way, Chen Wang could still be alive.
