Wu Meijuan said anxiously: "Who knew that Li Jianjun couldn't have a baby! After all, such things are rare! When you get married again, how can you live like this again? Girl, you are old enough, you can't afford to delay!"
"Child, let's not dare to get married just because one marriage was unfortunate. No matter what, we have to take another step forward, right?"
Wu Meijuan said helplessly: "It's not that I don't dare to get married anymore, but I want to enrich myself and learn a craft so that I can support myself in the future."
Wu Meijuan's mother immediately said: "Just don't be afraid!"
"Your second aunt told me that she knew a man who was a craftsman and a carpenter. He made a lot of money. His wife died before. I think the conditions are okay. How about you two meet?"
Wu Meijuan's face turned cold, "Mom, I'm leaving tomorrow, how can I meet you?"
"Let's meet first. If it's suitable, don't leave. Get ready to get married."
"Your second aunt said that the young man is not bad, but he is hard-working! He knows how to talk when he greets people! He has a good reputation! If you live a good life in the future, you will definitely enjoy happiness! When you have another child, won't your life be safe? "
Wu Meijuan's mother seemed to have fallen into self-fantasy, smiling as she thought about Wu Meijuan holding her child.
"Okay, okay, okay, you go to bed quickly, I'll see someone tomorrow." Wu Meijuan threw her luggage on the kang, intending to pretend that she agreed to settle the matter, otherwise she wouldn't be able to leave.
Wu Meijuan's mother slept in the same room with Wu Meijuan at night. Maybe she was afraid that Wu Meijuan would sneak away, so she even hid her package. The packed clothes were stuffed back into the cabinet. Once the key was locked, she felt relieved.
Wu Meijuan looked at her mother's movements and sighed. Why is it so difficult for her to live according to her own ideas?
She secretly touched her bankbook. Fortunately, she kept money and other things close to her body.
Late at night, Wu Meijuan suppressed her sleepiness and made sure her mother was asleep. Then she quietly put on her clothes and went to open the door.
The door is locked from the outside!
As soon as her hand touched the door, her brother woke up outside the door.
"Sister?" The eldest brother called softly, "Do you really want to go out?"
Wu Meijuan looked back at her mother and said, "Yes."
"Brother, I don't want to stay in the countryside anymore. I can't stand the gossip."
Brother Wu Meijuan sighed and said, "Mom asked me to guard the door because I was afraid you would leave in the middle of the night."
After saying that, the door opened.
Brother Wu Meijuan held a package in his hand and handed it to Wu Meijuan and said, "Your sister-in-law packed this for you. Take it. There is still a hundred yuan in it. If you think you are missing anything, you can buy some by yourself."
"Wear more clothes. It's cold outside. I'll ride my bicycle to take you to the station later."
Brother Wu Meijuan sighed again and turned away, "Why are you going out when you are so good? You live in your parents' house. Let me see who dares to say anything. Whoever dares to say it will be killed by me!"
"Brother..." Wu Meijuan's eyes turned red and her eyeballs dropped.
She turned around again, looked at her mother who had his back turned to her, and whispered, "I'm sorry."
Wu Meijuan's mother opened her eyes, pursed her lips tightly, and shed tears.
"Mom, I'm leaving. When I make a lot of money in the future, I will take you to the city to enjoy yourself!"
Wu Meijuan wiped her tears and left. She didn't dare to look back.
It was a long time before soft sobs came from the house.
She knew that her daughter would definitely do what she was determined to do, and she couldn't stop it, but what if? With this idea in mind, she gave it a try and asked her eldest son to guard the door. If Wu Meijuan wanted to leave, she would ask him, the elder brother, to give her a lift.
She only hopes that her daughter will have an easier life in the future. She does not want her to earn much money, nor does she want her to have a big future. She only hopes that she can live a smooth and happy life.
——
Wu Meijuan sat on the back seat of the bicycle, looking at her elder brother's back, feeling sad about leaving.
"When you get settled outside, remember to report to your family that you are safe. If you have anything to do, tell your family. If anyone bullies you, you must tell your elder brother. Your elder brother will take your younger brother to find them. If anyone bullies you, we will beat him up!"
"Also, you have to be careful outside, don't be deceived, you know?"
"If it's too tiring and difficult to be outside, come back. My parents and I are waiting for you."
Wu Meijuan nodded with red eyes, "I understand, brother, take good care of your parents."
"I'll write to you when I'm settled in. If anything happens at home, remember to write to me."
"Mom is old, and her legs and feet feel weak when it's cloudy. Remember to ask her to soak her feet in hot water more often."
"And Dad, tell him to smoke less. If he coughs, his lungs will come out."
"Okay." Brother Wu Meijuan interrupted with a smile, "Besides, you won't be able to leave."
"You can rest assured that I'm at home."
Wu Meijuan held back tears and said, "Yes."
The two of them walked and stopped, and it was still dark when they arrived at the county town. Brother Wu Meijuan stayed with Wu Meijuan at the station until the train departed.
The eldest brother bought her some apples and snacks for her to eat on the train.
Wu Meijuan looked at the things in her hands, then looked up at her brother, and almost didn't want to leave.
The home was warm and attached to her, but she still wanted to go out on her own.
"Is there anyone who hasn't gotten on the bus? Get on the bus quickly, it's about to leave!"
Wu Meijuan wanted to say something more, but her brother pushed her directly into the car, "Let's go! I'll write home when I get there!"
Wu Meijuan got in the car, lay down on the window and watched, sobbing.
Arriving in the city at noon, Wu Meijuan bought a train ticket to the provincial capital.
After wandering around for more than ten hours, she finally arrived at the provincial capital.
Carrying large and small bags of things, she first went to a guest house to wash up, and then went to a grocery store to buy some things, planning to take the things with her to apologize to Yan Zhen.
If it weren't for Yan Zhen, Li Jianjun's family would be at their most proud now, with a wife and children, but what about her? Clean up and leave the house!
She didn't know anything at the time, and she came here specifically to scold someone for being truthful. Now that she thinks about it, she really shouldn't have.
She took her things into Xuanji Hall, and Yan Zhen and Chen Juan saw her as soon as she entered.
"Doctor Yan!" Wu Meijuan walked over with a smile.
Yan Zhen looked her up and down and saw that she was in good condition, so he smiled and said, "How are things going at home?"
Wu Meijuan said with a smile: "Everything has been taken care of. That little brat Li Jianjun is not a toy."
"I had hooked up with a widow for a long time. The widow said she was pregnant. He was so stupid that he thought the child was his, so he had to marry her. But what! Hehe, Li Jianjun is a different kind of eunuch! Where? He has the ability to make a woman pregnant!"
"Of course the child belongs to someone else. How can I just let Li Jianjun go? I planned to make him lose face."
Then Wu Meijuan vividly described how Li Jianjun refused to admit it and insisted on saying that he could have a baby, and insisted on being a bastard, but the father of the child was robbed of the baby during the wedding.
Yan Zhen was stunned for a moment while Chen Juan laughed even harder.
"He is probably so embarrassed now that he has no face to see anyone." Yan Zhen said, "Your days will be good from now on, but don't dwell on the past."
Wu Meijuan shook her head, "I am not someone who has trouble with myself. I have wanted to have a child for so many years, and I also want to give myself a result."
"I'm sorry." Wu Meijuan suddenly remembered that she was here to apologize. Although she didn't care about the words, she had to admit her mistake.
"I'm really sorry. I came here to make trouble and caused you a lot of trouble, didn't I?"
"Okay, let's not talk about the past." Yan Zhen smiled, "Let's all look back."
Yan Zhen and Chen Juan were drying medicine, turning over the herbs in their hands. Yan Zhen asked, "Then what do you plan to do in the future?"
Wu Meijuan thought for a while and said, "I plan to stay in the city and see if I can learn some crafts."
"I still have a little money on hand, so I don't have to worry about money for the time being. I just want to learn a craft that I can use in the future and support myself with this craft."
Yan Zhen nodded and said, "Why don't you stay with us?"
