Countdown to Awakening

"My dear relatives, Shanshan has been well disciplined by us since she was a child. How could she do things that she shouldn't do with others before getting married?" Xiao Guilan said anxiously.

Ding Xiaoxiao looked disdainful after hearing this. How could she possibly believe it? So she said, "Why, mother-in-law, you still don't admit it, right? Do you want me to call the whole village to be witnesses? Your daughter is so filthy, she married into our family and kept us in the dark! Do you think we are all fools?"

Xiao Guilan was bewildered. She had clearly taught Zhong Shanshan everything, and Zhong Shanshan had listened to her. How could such a thing still happen?

Then she turned to look at Zhong Shanshan in disbelief. Zhong Shanshan also looked up at her mother anxiously. She really hadn't done anything wrong. Why was the towel clean? She didn't know why.

"You disciplined her well? That sounds nice... Is this the result of your good discipline? If you disciplined her well, then why is this towel clean? It's a pity that we spent such a huge amount of money to marry her, it was all a lie!" Ding Xiaoxiao said, and did not forget to roll her eyes at them.

Seeing that they were unmoved, Ding Xiaoxiao said, "Why don't we just get a divorce? Let's just be straightforward. Your family should return the betrothal gifts to us. We'll also return the dowry and other things to you, and then we can both live in peace and part ways."

Even after the divorce, her son could still find someone better. She refused to believe she couldn't find a truly honest woman for her son to marry. What kind of conditions could her son have? Her family's betrothal gift was not low, so she refused to believe she couldn't find someone better. For a family like the Zhong family, their daughter couldn't find someone better after a divorce. Who would want a divorced woman?

Zhong Shanshan's family members started to get nervous when they heard this. They'd only been married for a day, and now they were getting a divorce? What would that say if it got out? Wouldn't everyone be saying all sorts of things about their daughter? How awful would that sound? How could they get a divorce?

Then, Xiao Guilan said, "Oh, mother-in-law, how can we get a divorce? The two children have only been married for one day. It would be a joke if they got a divorce, wouldn't it? Let's not get a divorce, ok?"

Ding Xiaoxiao didn't care at all, thinking that it wasn't her daughter who did such a shameless thing. So she replied, "What? How can she be laughed at? Your daughter did something like this, do we still want her to stay in our house? Besides, after the divorce, our Xiaobin won't let others laugh at her. It's your fault for not raising your daughter well."

Xiao Guilan glanced at Zhong Shanshan and asked, "Shanshan, I have taught you well since you were a child, teaching you to understand the meaning of propriety, righteousness, integrity and shame. How dare you do such a thing now!"

You know, a divorced man is popular and it won't affect him from finding the next one, but it's different for a woman. After a divorce, it's hard for her to find the next one. And her daughter Zhong Shanshan got divorced because of her own problems, so it's even harder for her to find the next one.

Besides, word spreads so quickly in the village. If this gets out, no one will want her daughter Shanshan. She just married her daughter off yesterday, and now she's getting divorced. If this gets out, it'll be a complete joke! Who will still respect their family in the future? Wouldn't everyone be stepping on them?

That's how she taught Zhong Shanshan, how could she possibly do such a thing? And now she's saying she's not clean. This must be a mistake, or it could be her and someone else... That's impossible!

Xiao Guilan looked at Zhong Shanshan again and asked again: "Shanshan, tell me the truth, you... you really didn't do anything with other men?"

Ding Xiaoxiao said sarcastically, "Hey, what's the point of asking her? Even if she really did it, would she admit it? How could she admit to such a shameful thing? Don't ask. Just get a divorce..."

After listening to this, Zhong Shanshan shook her head and replied, "Mom, I didn't. I really didn't. I don't know what happened... I don't understand this either."

Liao Shengnan said, "I don't know what's going on. I think you just don't want to tell me who that wild man is. You want a divorce after something like this? Just a divorce is already giving you face. What else do you want? Are you going to keep pestering me? You have the nerve to continue living after doing something like this..."

"Oh, no... divorce is not an option. Our Shanshan would never do such a thing. I have been teaching her all the time, how could she not listen? Besides, my Shanshan gave your Liao Bin everything she should and shouldn't have given. Now you just want to walk away and be a hands-off boss, right? Right? How could that be? There is no such thing in the world! Won't our Shanshan suffer any loss?" Xiao Guilan said.

How could this be possible? The Liao family just wanted to leave after taking advantage of everything? And they wanted to find another one? How could it be that easy?

"Absolutely not! Divorce so easily? What do you think of our Shanshan? Huh? Marry her if you want, divorce her if you want? Our Shanshan is a good girl after all. Convict her based on a piece of white cloth? The white cloth is not clean, and it is not necessarily just our Shanshan's problem. Don't always put the blame on our Shanshan."

"Are you talking about my Xiaobin's problem? What are you talking about? It's obvious that your daughter is not clean! And you blame my Xiaobin?! Do you have any shame?!" Ding Xiaoxiao said.

As soon as these words were spoken, Xiao Guilan retorted, "What do you mean by 'our family is shameless'? Is your Liao Bin innocent? Are you saying that just based on a towel, you can conclude that our Shan Shan is unclean?! Who knows if your towel has been tampered with?"

"What do you mean? What else can we do to the white cloth?" asked Liao Shengnan.

"Who knows this? How can that piece of cloth be used to convict someone? This is simply slander!" said Xiao Guilan.

"Isn't that right? All women will bleed on their wedding night. Your Shanshan doesn't bleed, and you still dare to say that she is clean?! Humph, why do I feel that she is not clean? Which virgin girl doesn't bleed on her wedding night?" Ding Xiaoxiao said.

If Zhong Shanshan gets divorced, it will be difficult for her to find another man. After all, she is also dirty, no man would want her, and she was dirty before getting married. Her family is not in a hurry, so what are they afraid of?

Besides, who would want a woman who gets divorced after just one day of marriage?

But her family's Liao Bin is different. Even if a man has been divorced several times, there will still be people who want him, and he will still be in high demand. After all, divorced men are also very caring.

"Aren't there some people who don't see spotting? Does that mean everyone will see spotting?" Zhong Jianhua asked.

When Liao Zhaoer heard this, he immediately asked, "How do you, a grown man, know that not everyone sees red?"

Zhong Jianhua was speechless for a moment.

"You don't want to divorce? Well, just throw him in the pig cage! Our Liao family doesn't need a daughter-in-law like this." Ding Xiaoxiao said.
