Ouyang Mei was initially apathetic, but when she heard Xue Ling say there was a way, her eyes widened and she stared at her as if she were looking at a life-saving straw.
"What? Sister-in-law... tell me quickly!"
Xue Ling half lowered his eyes and said: "Use the law to defend your marriage rights. Our country advocates freedom of marriage. Couples must get married according to their own subjective wishes. If you don't want to, others can't force you. Like your brother, you are tied up and
Bundling is already illegal. You can go to the Public Security Bureau to report the case and ask the police comrades to help mediate."
Ouyang Mei was startled and turned pale.
"Call the police...? Isn't that good?! What if they arrest my brother?"
Xue Ling explained: "For the time being, it seems that there is no need to arrest him. At most, it is just mediation. But if he continues to escort you to get married, that is not necessarily the case. With your brother's morality, he will not listen to our advice. Please
It's useless for us. You have no other relatives here in Rongcheng, so you can only use this method."
Ouyang Mei was extremely worried, shedding tears while squeezing her painful arms.
"But... I am just such a brother... He said that if I don't listen to him, he will sever ties with me! My brother and I were both raised by my grandmother. Later, when I was a teenager, my brother went out to work, and slowly
Slowly send money to support the family. I...I can't help but listen to him."
Xue Ling shook his head lightly and said: "Family love is important, but it depends on the actual situation. In a situation like this, if you listen to him, then you will have to lose your life's happiness. If you have to listen to him, then you
There is no need to cry, just wait to get married."
"No!" Ouyang Mei panicked, trembling uncontrollably: "That man knows how to hit people, and his eyes are very fierce. I...I'm scared!"
She panicked and hugged Liu Ying's arm, trembling: "Aunt, that man is so ugly! He said that he married me to give him a baby, and he had to give birth to a boy, otherwise I would have to be good-looking! I'm afraid...
He is like a big bandit! I don’t want to marry him!”
Liu Ying saw that she was crying and scared, and she had no idea, so she looked to Xue Ling for help.
Xue Ling pointed to the street with his hand and said: "I can send you to the Public Security Bureau now. Before your brother comes back, leave quickly. If this matter is settled, you can marry the person you like in the future.
, live a good life and just be nice to your brother. He is him and you are you. He has no right to decide your life. Even parents cannot force their children to get married or marry by force."
Ouyang Mei couldn't help but swallow her saliva and lowered her head.
Xue Ling sighed softly, walked back to his yard, and unloaded the rice and oil drums from the back seat of the bicycle.
"Think about it! It's about three o'clock in the afternoon now, and a trip to the Public Security Bureau can only take half an hour at most. We can't help you decide your life, but we can at most give you an idea and take you there. You can decide for yourself whether you want to or not.
Let’s do it.”
Ouyang Mei was trembling all the time, her heart was agitated, and she was holding on to Liu Ying and wouldn't let go.
Liu Ying persuaded in a low voice: "Meizi, from my hometown, my aunt would like to remind you a few words. It is said that 'women are afraid of marrying the wrong man, and men are afraid of getting into the wrong profession'. This is really true. Think about it, if you marry a
If you get pregnant or give birth to a child from a bad family, even if you can't bear it and want a divorce, what will you do with the child? He will suffer!"
Although she doesn't understand any big principles, she is still married, has lived for decades, and has walked more bridges than Ouyang Mei.
What she said was not very good, but the truth lies in its truth.
Liu Ying added: "Marrying is a lifelong matter. You are only in your twenties now, and your life is still so long. If you think that I can endure it for a while, you are wrong. If you marry someone, you will be Tie Zhengzheng.
It’s a fact. If you sleep with someone and have a baby, you may never be able to get rid of it for the rest of your life.”
Ouyang Mei's face turned pale and she kept nodding.
"Okay...I'll go! I'll find a comrade in the police to mediate! Anyway, even if I die, I won't marry that disgusting man!"
Liu Ying quickly held her hand and shouted: "Ling Ling, she said she wanted to mediate! Send her there! Do you know the way?"
"I got it." Xue Ling unloaded all the things, turned the bicycle around, and quickly walked out with it: "I'll take you there, hurry!"
Ouyang Mei hesitated again, trembling: "Aunt, sister-in-law... I'm afraid my brother will blame me..."
Xue Ling couldn't help but retort: "Didn't you just say that you would not marry even if you died? Then what are you afraid of? You are not even afraid of death. Are you still afraid that your brother will blame you?"
Liu Ying advised: "You and her are blood relatives. He is a girl like you, but he has the heart to force you to marry a man who is like a bandit. You are still afraid that he will blame you! When you marry the person you like, your life will be better.
Give him a few cartons of cigarettes and alcohol, and he'll be fine in no time!"
After hearing this, Ouyang Mei felt confident and sat in the back seat of Xue Ling.
Xue Ling kicked off his long legs and shook the front of the car. Soon the car gained speed and balanced, and quickly headed towards the intersection ahead.
It's not yet the rush hour for get off work, so there are no people on the road and there are even fewer cars.
Xue Ling rode fast, and the twenty-minute ride only took about ten minutes.
Ouyang Mei felt cold and curled up. She didn't know whether it was fear or cold, she was shivering all the time.
"We're here." Xue Ling stopped the car in front of the police station.
Ouyang Mei jumped down, maybe because her feet were weak, she almost fell down.
Xue Ling had quick eyesight and quickly grabbed her arm.
Her hair was messy, her eyes were red from crying, her face was pale and livid, and she was shaking all the time.
"Are you okay?" Xue Ling asked.
Ouyang Mei whispered in embarrassment: "I...I haven't eaten since last night..."
Xue Ling looked around and saw a small noodle shop opposite, and quickly pulled her over.
"Come on, I'll treat you to some noodles. Come in when your stomach is full."
It was not meal time and there was little business in the noodle shop, so Xue Ling ordered a large bowl of Yangchun noodles.
The noodles came out quickly, and Ouyang Mei devoured them hungrily.
Xue Ling asked: "Would you like another bowl?"
Ouyang Mei quickly shook her head and swallowed.
"Sister-in-law...thank you."
Xue Ling didn't say anything, but took out a handful of money from his pocket, plus the bonus of 100 yuan that was just paid out today, and pushed it all to her.
"I've already paid back the money, it's only one yuan. You have no money, few clothes, and it's so cold. There are more than 120 yuan here, which I lent you. You can keep it and pay it forward."
Ouyang Mei stared at the money, tears fell down, and she started to cry even more.
Xue Ling took a deep breath and said: "Destiny should be in your own hands. The police station is right across the street. You can decide for yourself whether you want to go in or not. It's up to you. I'm going home first."
"Sister-in-law!" Ouyang Mei shouted from behind: "...Thank you! Thank you!"
Xue Ling didn't say anything, didn't look back, and rode her bicycle back to the rental house.
When they arrived at the door of the rental house, they found that the door next door was open. The door was still the same as when they left it just now. The rope was broken and fell to the floor.
