Countdown to Awakening

Of course, Qi Yuanyuan didn't spoil him. She had long known that there were very few good people in Qi Ronghua's family, and she couldn't find any other good people except her eldest brother Qi Qingyang.

Anyway, he is not her real uncle, just a relative in name only. What is she afraid of?

"Yes, Qi Qingguang, you didn't use my quota. You're so shameless! You took the exam yourself, so you used it. You have no shame at all. You can't pass the exam yourself, so you use someone else's quota. Who do you think you are? Is it so hard to admit that you are worse than us?"

Qi Yuanyuan's words were naturally very sharp, and Qi Qingguang wanted to clench his fists after hearing them. Doesn't this mean that he is very bad?

What's wrong with him? He just didn't get into university. Qi Yuanyuan is just a junior, and a little girl dares to teach him a lesson? He is Qi Yuanyuan's second brother!

"What did you say? What's the point of you, a woman, passing the college entrance examination? Won't you get married in the future? You might as well give the spot to me and my brother. We are your brothers after all. In the future, the Qi family's incense will be passed on to us instead of you. What's wrong with you giving the spot to us? It will bring honor to our family if we go to college. Who will remember you when you get married? Let me be frank. Even if you pass the college entrance examination, you will be someone else's daughter-in-law. But it's different for my brother and I. We will always be members of the Qi family and will be included in the Qi family genealogy. Didn't you take the college entrance examination for us?" Qi Qingguang said this with some pride.

Everyone agreed after hearing this.

Qingguang is right. It's the way it is. Is Qi Yuanyuan supposed to stay married? How embarrassing would that be? Even if she doesn't marry, she'll still be away from her parents' home. A daughter will always belong to someone else's family, and you'll never be able to raise her well. I really feel sorry for the second son of the Qi family. They'll probably be wiped out in the future, without a son to look after the family. What's the point of relying on just a daughter?

"Yuanyuan, listen to me, just give the spot to your cousin. You also want to go to college, so you can always go back and repeat a year. If your cousin has a college degree, it will be easier for him to get married in the future. Besides, who will remember you when you get married? Won't the boys in the family support you? You will also rely on the three brothers Qingguang in the future. And Qingguang also said that if you get into college, you will belong to someone else's family. In my opinion, it is better to give it to the two brothers." An old man in the crowd said.

Qi Yuanyuan looked in the direction of the voice in disbelief. What? How could such a ridiculous thing happen?

Before she could retort, a voice rang out: "Why? Just because Yuanyuan and Pandi are girls? This is unfair! You can't pass the exam, so you do such a shameless thing, and you don't want people to say anything? This is the only kind of thing in the world, and you get all the benefits, right?

The owner of that voice was Zhang Mei.

Zhang Mei couldn't stand this kind of thing. What was this about favoring sons over daughters? Aren't boys and girls the same? Doesn't a daughter mean she's not her own blood?

What she couldn't understand most was that most people in the village only allowed their sons to go to school, while their daughters stayed in the village to work or even get married. What impressed her most was when she first got married, a family left their high school daughter at home while their eighth-year son went to the county town for tutoring.

Why should girls stay in the village and get married? Girls who pass the exams have plenty of career opportunities, can make a lot of money, and have a bright future. This world is no longer a man's world.

"Hey, Zhang Mei, what you said is true, isn't it? Even if a girl passes the exam, what will happen? She will still get married? Won't she belong to someone else by then?" the man continued.

"You gave birth to a boy, and you don't feel anything, yet you keep saying that boys and girls are the same. Would you say the same thing if you gave birth to a girl? I guess not, right?" the man continued to mock.

Zhang Mei knew that even if she had given birth to a daughter, she wouldn't have rejected her, but would have loved her dearly. But she was also fortunate to have given birth to a son. If it had been a daughter, she didn't know what the villagers would say about her in the future, how they would plan her life... It was precisely because she had a son that the villagers didn't take over her house.

"Let's get back to the point. Why should I give it to you? Why don't girls deserve to go to college? Let me tell you, Yuanyuan and Pandi getting into college is the most bragging thing in our village. If you tell anyone about this crap you're doing now, they'll make you a laughing stock!"

Zhang Mei said righteously.

She admires Qi Yuanyuan very much. She is bold in speaking and acting, and she is also smart. She will definitely have a bright future!

Zheng Haifeng couldn't stand it either. Although it didn't affect his interests, he had grown up with the two of them after all.

"I don't agree either. They worked so hard to get this, how can we just give it up?"

At this time, the village chief stood up and said, "Everyone, stop arguing. I thought it was something serious. Can't the quota be changed at will? Do you think I'm dead? Although Yuanyuan and Pandi are girls, they will definitely have great futures! Degui, Ronghua, if you still want to stay in this village, then you better behave yourself and don't cause any trouble! Don't do such immoral things!"

The two people who were called out wished they could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

"Qingguang, you are not a child anymore. Can't you tell whether this is right or wrong? You and your brother are twins. Is he the only one who understands this principle and you don't?" The village chief then began to scold Qi Qingguang.

No one dared to speak.

But at this moment, someone was about to be caught in the crossfire. That person was Ma Hui.

All they heard was Ma Hui saying with a hint of sarcasm: "Oh, if someone didn't know you, a widow, they would think you were so capable, saying that men and women are the same. I don't think so. You women can only give birth to children. Take you, for example, Widow Zhang, so what if you passed the exam? You still gave birth to children at home, and you killed your husband. Oh, if someone didn't know you, they would think you were so powerful, but you are just good at talking."

Ma Hui was still not quiet: "How powerful is he just with his mouth? Hey, he's really capable. Someone wanted us to get along, but now it seems that it was right not to get along. Otherwise, if I married someone with such a powerful mouth, I don't know if it would kill me..."

Zhang Mei wasn't angry at all. She'd heard so many things, not least Ma Hui's. Almost everyone in the village said the same thing about her. They said she was unlucky for her husband. She was used to it.

Zhang Mei did not refute Ma Hui.

"The girls in this village are all very promising. If they go to university, they won't lose out to the boys. The village chief has repeatedly supported girls' education. Now you want to take two girls' places. You are so shameless!"

Qi Yuanyuan looked at Zhang Mei and always felt that she was almost the same kind of person as her.

Everyone also looked at Zhang Mei.

The village chief also came over at this time.

"You guys messed up a good banquet like this? Are you satisfied now? I'm telling you, as long as I'm here, don't even think about selling Yuanyuan and Pandi's spots. You have people in town, right? I want to see who has more people in town, you or I?!"

The village chief never liked to say this, and he never emphasized his position as village chief, let alone his relationship with the town government. Hearing this, Chen Juan and the others felt ashamed.

I had intended to keep it a secret from the village chief, but Qi Qingyang had woken everyone up with one shout. This was incredibly embarrassing...

"Qingyang, go back and teach your brother a lesson. Your parents didn't teach him well, so as his older brother, you have to teach him well. Let him know what he should do!"

Wang Ning and Qi Ronghua felt even more embarrassed
