Reborn 99 Days Later, Becoming a Landlady and Getting into Tsinghua and Peking Universities

Liang Ruotao's bright eyes were suddenly filled with tears.

She looked deeply at Liang Yongchang, seeing only anger on his face and not a trace of reluctance, and said decisively:

"I am willing!"

To be honest, aside from the innate affection she felt for her father, she couldn't recall any tender moments with Liang Yongchang.

Liang Yongchang always kept his salary for himself and never spent a single penny on his family.

All the household expenses were covered by Hua and Chun's salaries.

Not only was he stingy with money towards his family, but Liang Yongchang never showed any concern for the two sisters.

When she was little, she didn't understand.

She was extremely envious of her neighbor, who would carry his daughter on his shoulders and take her out to play as soon as he got off work.

But before she could get close to Liang Yongchang, she was scared away by the look of disgust on his face.

She felt wronged.

Hua and Chun told her that her father didn't dislike her; he was just not good at expressing his feelings.

As long as she is well-behaved and obedient, her father will eventually open his arms to her.

But the truth is, if you don't like it, you just don't like it.

What good is being pleasing, sensible, and obedient?

All I got in return was annoyance.

After enduring endless grievances, Liang Ruotao pretended that she had no father.

She suppressed her longing for a father's love and became a good girl who only had her mother.

Now, Mom has left too.

She... only has her younger sister left.

As twins, Liang Yili clearly sensed the turmoil in Liang Ruotao's emotions.

Yes, if it weren't for that longing for a father's love in their hearts, how could they have been so foolish as to be deceived by Liang Yongchang in their past lives?

Did they really not know that Liang Yongchang was lying?

Not necessarily.

This is the fundamental reason why she didn't tell her sister the truth and severed their ties without informing her first.

She is afraid...

"Sister, you still have me!"

If she could start over, she would sever every last trace of emotional attachment and longing she had for the Liang family.

So what if there is no father's love?

So what if she's a girl?

What if there's no one to rely on behind you?

The less they believed in her, the more determined she became to live a better life!

"Dajiang, open the door!"

Outside the door, the village chief's anxious voice came along with knocking.

"The child is still young, we can teach them properly..."

The door was suddenly opened from the inside, catching the village chief off guard. He saw the kitchen knife in Liang Yili's hand and the bloodstains on it, and his breath caught in his throat.

“Pear, if you have any grievances, tell Grandpa Village Chief. Don’t act impulsively.”

Because the Liang sisters often lived in the county town, the village chief didn't have much contact with them.

But the two sisters were taught very well.

Every time I return to the village, I always greet everyone with a smile, no matter who I see.

In this respect, their father, Liang Yongchang, was far inferior to them.

"Grandpa Village Chief, a month ago, my mother tragically died while trying to save a drowning child."

“Now that her body is barely cold, Liang Yongchang is about to bring his mistress and son into the house. I would like to ask you to be a witness and write three letters severing ties with her.”

These words immediately caused an uproar among the people gathered inside and outside the Liang family's courtyard.

The village chief was shocked: "A mistress and son he's keeping outside? A letter of severance of ties? Dajiang, is this true?"

Liang Dajiang's face was as black as ink. He never expected Liang Yili to be so ruthless, directly shouting the matter out in public.

But when he thought of Liang Yili's threats to Liang Yongchang, he could only nod reluctantly.

"Confused!"

"Grandpa Village Chief, my sister and I have made up our minds. Thank you for your help."

The village chief looked at Liang Yili, whose back was straight and whose face was firm.

He glanced again at Liang Yongchang and his son, whose faces were filled with hatred but showed no reluctance whatsoever, and shook his head.

The Jiang family is so foolish!

“Grandpa Village Chief, please write it down. We already agreed on this before you came.”

"My sister and I have been admitted to the No. 1 Middle School in the city, but Liang Yongchang is unwilling to continue supporting our schooling."

If he doesn't fulfill his duties and responsibilities as a father, then we won't be responsible for his care when he gets old.

Seeing that both sides had reached an agreement, the village chief had no choice but to write the letter severing ties as Liang Yili requested.

The letter of severance of kinship was made in triplicate: one copy for the Liang family, one copy for the Liang sisters (Liang Yili and Liang Yili), and one copy for the village chief.

She knew that a letter severing ties might not be legally recognized.

But so what?

At least for now, in the eyes of the villagers, Liang Yili has no relation to the Liang family whatsoever.

As for what happens in the future, we’ll talk about it later.

By then, she would be fully capable and powerful; would she still be afraid of Liang Yongchang?

Looking at the Liang Yili sisters, whose faces were ashen but whose expressions remained stubborn, the village chief seemed to see two blades of grass being drenched by a torrential downpour, yet refusing to bow their heads or bend over no matter what.

He stared intently at Liang Yongchang and his son, inwardly cursing them as idiots.

So what if she's a girl?

Who says women are inferior to men?

The leaders have all said that we should be equal for men and women, but some people just can't see that right and value their own flesh more than their lives!

Just wait and see, this family will regret it someday!

"What are you looking at? Now that we've severed ties, get out of here! My family doesn't accept outsiders!"

Faced with so much criticism and judgment, Wang Pandi decided to give up entirely.

They pushed Liang Yili and Liang Ruotao out the door as if they were sweeping up trash.

Those around her were stunned to see that she wouldn't even let the Liang Yili sisters stay for one more night.

“Wang Pandi, even though you’ve severed ties with them, Taozi and Lizi are still your granddaughters. It’s almost dark, and you’re driving them away. Aren’t you trying to kill them?”

The neighbor, an elderly woman who had always disliked Wang Pandi, complained indignantly.

Wang Pandi spat on the ground, put her hands on her hips, and shouted, "If you're so kind, why don't you take them home!"

The last vestige of hope in Liang Ruotao's heart vanished completely. She took Liang Yili's hand and said coldly:

"let's go!"

The village chief was utterly disappointed to see that Liang Yongchang and his son were letting Wang Pandi drive people away.

"Peach, Pear, if you don't mind, why don't you come to my house for the night?"

Fearing the two sisters might be unwilling, and thinking they wanted to return to the county town, the village chief earnestly persuaded them:

“Our village is more than ten miles from the county town. There are mountains on both sides of the road, and it’s not safe to travel at night. Listen to me, come to my house for the night.”

"Yes, it's really not safe for you two girls."

"Are you hungry? Haven't eaten yet? Dinner's ready at my place, want to come over for a quick bite?"

Liang Yili thanked everyone for their kindness and looked through the crowd toward the large banyan tree at the village entrance:

"Thank you! But someone has already come to pick us up!"

After saying that, Liang Yili turned to the village chief and asked, "My sister and I have already separated our household registrations, but we are not yet adults. Can we register them under the village's collective household registration?"

The village chief nodded.

After agreeing on a time for settling down, Liang Yili, holding her sister's hand, formally said goodbye to the villagers and ran towards the banyan tree.

Liang Ruotao asked, puzzled, "What did you mean by saying someone was coming to pick you up?"

No matter how hard she racked her brains, she couldn't think of anyone who would come to pick them up that night.

Liang Yili smiled mysteriously: "You'll know when you see him!"
