This short sentence was like a sharp blade piercing Master Yang's chest.
Mrs. Yang's pretty face turned pale, and her whole body trembled slightly. She subconsciously held the table with her right hand, as if she could use this to stabilize herself.
"In the past few years, Master Yang has been teaching students in Lianchi Academy, and everyone respects him. In Lianchi Academy, Master Yang has gained dignity and pride."
"But this dignity and pride immediately dissipated when in front of the Jiang family."
"In front of them, I will always be the daughter-in-law of the Jiang family who has been bullied and swallowed her anger."
Xie Mingxi, who has always been considerate and considerate, was particularly sharp and sharp today, and every word of her words hit home Master Yang's pain points: "Master Yang, are you really willing to do this?"
Master Yang's whole body trembled again, his nose was sore, and his eyes flashed with water.
The scene of returning to Jiang's house a few days ago suddenly flashed through my mind.
…
She held up the twenty taels of silver that she had saved so hard, and begged softly: "I sent back the twenty taels of silver. I want to see Ningxue."
Old Mrs. Jiang grabbed the money, and a cheerful sneer appeared on her old face: "Bah! Last time I went to the academy to find you, your students humiliated me, but you didn't say a word."
"If you want to see Ningxue, you are dreaming!"
Mrs. Jiang weighed the thick silver and said disdainfully: "You really have a concubine in the academy. I asked you to take twenty taels of silver, so you took it out."
She was shocked and angry: "This is the money I earned from teaching students privately. It's clean. Don't humiliate me like this!"
Old Mrs. Jiang didn't expect that she would talk back, and she was immediately angry: "Hey, Yang Qiaoniang! Now that you are really hard-up, you dare to talk back to me! I tell you, bring me thirty taels of silver back next month. Otherwise,
Don’t even think about seeing Ningxue.”
The two sisters-in-law standing aside looked at Yinzi with greedy eyes, and then looked at her with disdain. They said in a strange way: "Beautiful people are good! Even half-old ladies are willing to do so."
"Dip."
"Isn't that right? You can make money just by lying down!"
Every dirty word is unbearable.
Balls of raging anger kept surging in his chest, as if they were about to turn into flames and burst out of his chest.
How could she be willing to let others humiliate her?
How can you be willing to continue like this?
How can you be willing to be separated from your daughter and be misunderstood by her?
She is not willing to give in!
She is not willing to give in!
…
"No one in this world is born inferior! And no one wants to be persecuted forever!" Xie Mingxi continued: "The master's love for his daughter is touching."
"It's a pity that Miss Jiang doesn't appreciate Master's hard work."
"If this continues, Master and Miss Jiang will only drift apart."
"I think Master Yang must not want this situation to happen. Before Miss Jiang has a hairpin and the Jiang family has not had time to arrange an engagement for Miss Jiang, Master Yang would still find a way to take her out of the Jiang family."
"Miss Jiang has a good appearance. If the Jiang family is greedy for gold and silver, they might sell her as a concubine in order to obtain a high amount of gold and silver..."
Master Yang shuddered when he heard this, and blurted out: "Ningxue is a bloodline of the Jiang family, how could they be so cruel!"
Xie Mingxi looked calm: "Wealth touches people's hearts. No one knows better than Master how greedy the Jiang family is. She is just a granddaughter, who cares about her fate after getting married?"
yes!
With the Jiang family's greed and shamelessness, what can't they do?
The more Master Yang thought about it, the more frightened and cold he felt, and his thoughts were in confusion.
However, Xie Mingxi no longer tried to persuade her, and only said: "This is Master's family matter, and no one can make a decision for Master. I hope Master will think carefully about how to make a decision."
"If Master decides to draw a clear line with the Jiang family, I will definitely help you with all my strength."
"If Master is willing to endure humiliation and continue to be bullied and persecuted by the Jiang family, just pretend that I never said what I said today."
After saying this, Xie Mingxi stopped and said no more.
…
Master Yang stood there for a long time.
The fair and beautiful face is full of hesitation, struggle and pain.
It's easy to say to cut off everything with a knife, but how difficult is it to really make up your mind? She has never made up her mind, not only because her daughter was left behind in the Jiang family, but also because she misses her late husband...
The deceased is gone, and it will be of no benefit for her to cling to the past. It will only make herself and her daughter suffer.
In the past few years, she has been extremely loyal to Jiang Jiaren.
From now on, she should live for herself.
Master Yang calmed down and whispered to Xie Mingxi: "Thank you for waking me up today. You are right, I should make the right choice."
Then, he sighed in a complicated and emotional tone: "I have lived for thirty years, but I can't understand it as well as you, a ten-year-old girl. These years, my life has been in vain!"
After making up his mind to sever his wrist with a knife, Master Yang felt relaxed.
Xie Mingxi saw this in her eyes and felt pleased, and whispered: "Master, why are you so self-deprecating? Everything in the world is easier said than done. Everyone knows the truth. How many people can really cut off the wrists of a strong man?"
"The master is willing to endure humiliation for his daughter and has a loving motherly heart, which is why he is worthy of respect."
Mentioning Jiang Ningxue, Master Yang smiled helplessly: "I have been away from the Jiang family for a few years, and Ningxue listened to the Jiang family's instigation all day long, saying something wrong about me, and she also felt resentful towards me, my biological mother."
"Even if I suppress everyone in the Jiang family, I'm still afraid that she won't leave the Jiang family with me."
Xie Mingxi raised her eyebrows: "It depends on whether the master can be cruel."
Master Yang was stunned and looked at Xie Mingxi.
Xie Mingxi whispered a few words.
Master Yang's expression changed again and again, and he finally nodded heartily: "Okay, I will follow your idea and give it a try."
…
That day, after the students finished school, Master Yang went back to Jiang's house.
The Jiang family originally had a rice and grain shop and was considered a wealthy family. Mrs. Yang's late husband was the eldest son of the family. He was an honest man and kept the rice and grain shop in order.
It's a pity that after his death, the two younger brothers were both lazy and lazy. In just a few years, the business plummeted. Later, they simply closed the shop. Anyway, the money Mrs. Yang sent back every month was enough for the family.
Mrs. Jiang was mean to her daughter-in-law, but she was pampered and pampered towards her two sons and several grandchildren. Mrs. Jiang didn't care about her children and grandchildren, and she just kept squeezing money from Mrs. Yang.
When Jiang Ningxue grows up, she will ask for a large betrothal gift, which will be enough for her grandchildren to start a family.
However, even if Jiang Ningxue gets married in the future, she will still force Mrs. Yang to take the money back. Otherwise, won’t her children and grandchildren be starving?
Mrs. Jiang had a wishful thinking. When she heard that Master Yang was back, she thought that Master Yang had taken the initiative to send money back, so she happily went to the main room.
As usual, the sons and grandsons did not show up to avoid the bad reputation of persecuting their sister-in-law and aunt.
Mrs. Jiang glanced at Master Yang and said arrogantly, "Where are the thirty taels of silver?"
