Quick Wear: The bad female supporting role, the male protagonist prefers
Chapter 138: Don’t Run Away, the Sucker of the 50s (12)
"Gu Shutang, how can you say such a thing? You have to help me, you owe me this."
Zhao Yongpan's hands were red, and he stared at Gu Shutang, "It was you who the Li family had their eyes on back then. I was the victim of your misfortune."
The Li family is the family that Zhao Yongpan has been engaged to for many years, and Zhao Yongpan has had a lot of contact with the Li family.
By chance, I learned that the Li family originally had their eyes on the young girl Gu Shutang, but seeing that the Shen family treated this adopted daughter like a treasure, they did not dare to offend the Shen family.
In addition, the age gap was too big, and the Li family felt that their son was being wronged by having to wait so many years before getting married, so they had to settle for the girl from the Zhao family.
Once Zhao Yongpan learned about this, her original resentment turned into anger towards Gu Shutang. If she had not suddenly risen to become the daughter of the factory director and had the protection of the Shen family, she would not have had to suffer this punishment.
It was obvious that Gu Shutang should have been a child bride in the Li family who was bullied at a young age. How could it be her turn to go to college? She should have been an ignorant illiterate in the Li family and be despised by her husband.
Zhao Yongpan gritted his teeth and said, "If you still have a conscience, compensate me with some money and don't tell anyone about my location."
Deep down in her heart, Zhao Yongpan had already determined that it was Gu Shutang's appearance that caused her to fall into such a situation. Now that she was in college, she should be the one enjoying everyone's polite treatment, not a country girl.
Lei Hanyi would not have been forced to leave the textile factory compound because of the conflict he had with Gu Shutang, a country girl.
People from the Public Security Bureau and the government happened to see Lei Hanyi bragging. One of them was familiar with Lei's father and gave his father a few words of advice.
As a result, Lei Hanyi was sent back to his hometown by his father overnight and handed over to his grandfather for instruction.
Over the years, Lei Hanyi has not only not returned to the compound, but has not even sent back a letter.
Zhao Yongpan was very worried about Lei Hanyi's situation, and he also resented Gu Shutang for making Lei Hanyi suffer so much just to show off his power.
She had met Lei Hanyi's grandfather several times. Every time his grandfather came to the compound, he was serious and would even beat people if Lei's father told him to.
Zhao Yongpan was quite afraid of Lei Hanyi's grandfather. He always felt that if Lei Hanyi fell into his hands, he would definitely not have enough food to eat or warm clothes, and would be beaten for some trivial matters.
Gu Shutang shook her head and laughed when she heard Zhao Yongpan's ridiculous excuse. Her pretty face was filled with disdain for her. "Unprovoked misfortune? Zhao Yongpan, you're quite amusing. Your parents arranged this marriage for you, yet you don't blame the person who arranged it for you. Instead, you blame me, who had nothing to do with it?"
"If you hadn't been so lucky as to be adopted by the Shen family and the Shen family protected you, our positions today would definitely be reversed."
Gu Shutang laughed heartily, looking down at Zhao Yongpan, who was a head shorter than her, and said, "Just because your parents don't love you and use you to gain benefits,
My parents love me and won't push me into this fire, yet you're taking your hatred, which has nowhere to vent, out on me."
"Zhao Yongpan, your hatred is too forced. You can't even pinpoint the person who wronged you. You're truly incompetent!"
As soon as Gu Shutang finished speaking, she took out a towel from her bag and wiped the places where Zhao Yongpan had touched, showing her disdain for Zhao Yongpan without any concealment.
"Gu Shutang, if you were me, you would only end up in a worse situation!"
Zhao Yongpan's voice was shrill, and her attitude sounded as if Gu Shutang had done something wrong to her.
"But I'm not you, and I'm not as cowardly as you to dare not resist this marriage."
"Zhao Yongpan, you're quite pitiful. You went to the countryside in such a dejected state that you didn't even have money for food. I bet you were in such a hurry that you didn't even pack your luggage."
Gu Shutang's eyes were full of gloating. She folded the towel in her hand and put it into her bag, and her words were full of obvious divisiveness.
"I heard from the Zhao family that you signed up for a rural area in the northwest. The winter there is not only colder than in Pingcheng, but also very long."
"The resettlement allowances for the educated youth who went to the countryside were distributed by the production team. I heard that the process took a long time."
"Winter will be here soon, and the resettlement allowance won't come down that quickly. You don't even have any banknotes, and you might even have to ask the team for an advance on your own rations."
"You definitely won't be able to buy cotton to make clothes or quilts in the winter, and you didn't bring anything with you from home. How are you going to survive in the northwest?"
Her tone was gentle and her expression was full of sympathy.
"What's the point of you hating me? You should find the person who actually hurt you to this point. After all, they were the ones who promised you away and squandered the money from selling you, while you were forced to go to the countryside and couldn't even survive."
"They...they also have their own difficulties."
Zhao Yongpan lowered his head and retorted in a low voice.
"Hardship? What hardship would force me to marry you off and take the 200 yuan betrothal gift from the Li family? Your parents have a huge gambling debt to pay off."
These days, the average salary of an ordinary worker who works for the government is only a dozen to twenty yuan, so a betrothal gift of two hundred yuan is not a small amount of money in their time.
The Zhao family had been hiding the matter of the bride price from her, and she never knew that her bride price was so high.
Zhao Yongpan's face was ugly, as if he was crying, "No...no."
Zhao Yongpan suddenly had an epiphany. Even though he knew that Gu Shutang had bad intentions, his thoughts couldn't help but follow her.
Although Gu Shutang was hateful, it was her parents who really made her want to marry the old man from the Li family.
Her parents are both working and raised her and her brother. They don't have any elderly people to take care of, so their lives are much better than most families in the city.
Zhao Yongpan's eyes were distracted. What were the difficulties her parents were talking about?
Zhao Yongpan thought desperately, but apart from the fact that her mother was hesitant every time she talked about this, she had no answer at all.
I suddenly thought of the generous dowry my brother received when he married his wife after he became an adult, and how he could show off his wealth in front of his friends and often treat them to a meal even though he didn't have a job.
Even though she still had some hope for her family, she couldn't help but feel that the Zhao family had suddenly become wealthy since the year they forced her to get engaged, because they had used the money from selling her marriage.
She was a little discouraged and hated herself for being weak at that time. If she had fought hard, she would not have ended up in this situation.
Even though she didn't like the graceful girl in front of her, she had to agree with her words. She had been deceiving herself all along, imagining that even if she was not as favored as her brother, she still had some status in her parents' hearts.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yongpan regretted her impulsive signing up. She bit her lip and asked, "Is what you said true? Are the conditions in the countryside really that difficult?"
"You can ask someone."
When Gu Shutang saw Zhao Yongpan like this, she knew at a glance that she had taken her words to heart.
