Farmhouse Green Plum

Chapter 476 Provocation

Luo Yanxing looked over and asked, "What do you mean?"

"If I had known this earlier, I would have kept it a secret from my mother-in-law and the others." Zhaodi had a complicated expression, "Someone in our village might be the kind of person Song Ying mentioned."

She frowned and said, "A few years ago, there was a young girl in our village who was working alone in the fields at noon, hoping to harvest more wheat.

Unexpectedly, a scoundrel in the village passed by and raped her. She told her parents, and then her father took advantage of her mother's absence and raped her..."

She didn't say the last half of the sentence, but everyone in the room understood what she meant. Luo Yanxing was shocked and angry: "Beast!"

"It's worse than an animal." Song Ying corrected, and then sighed sadly, "This world is too harsh on us women, especially when it comes to our reputation. No matter if it's our fault or not, as long as our reputation is tarnished, no matter if we are cursed or blamed or sympathized with and regretted, people's focus is always on us women."

Luo Yanxing pursed her lips tightly. No matter how strong she was or how good she was at fighting, she felt deeply helpless about this.

After a long silence, she whispered, "I really hope the world can focus on the perpetrators."

"That day will come. I believe that day will come." Song Ying tilted his head to look at the deep starry sky outside the window, his eyes full of yearning and his tone sincere, "When something like this happens again, people won't say how pitiful a certain girl is, how she was treated by bad guys, and how she ended up in such and such a way.

They can only say how vicious that bad guy is, how cruel his methods are, and what kind of retribution such a cruel and insane bad guy has received or should receive in the end.

Criticize the perpetrators and gloss over the victims. This way, the victims will not be afraid to speak out about their experiences, and the perpetrators will face "rumors."

In the long run, people will be more afraid of rumors and gossip, and there will be fewer perpetrators like this."

"That would be great." Hearing this description, Zhaodi actually shed tears.

Luo Yanxing felt distressed when he saw this, but he tried hard not to cry, "What should we do now? Should we just let that bad guy go?"

Compared with the scene described by Song Ying, Zhaodi burst into tears after hearing this. "What can we do if we don't let her go? Juan'er is already nine years old. She will be getting married in a few years. If this gets out, who will be willing to marry her? We can't marry her to that bad guy, can we?"

She wiped away her tears and said, "Fortunately, we went there in time before it reached the last step. Now the only people who know about this are our family members and Zhang's cousins.

When she wakes up, I will go and beg her not to tell anyone else and keep it a secret until a few years later, when Juan'er gets married."

Luo Yanxing was furious, "No, that would be too easy for that bad guy! If I let him off lightly this time, he might still have his eyes on Juan'er in the future. I must teach him a lesson!"

"But even if we retaliate secretly, he will be able to guess that it was our family who did it. If he tells the truth directly, Juan'er's reputation will be ruined."

Song Ying also disagreed with such impulsive revenge. After thinking for a while, he said, "In my opinion, it's best if you, Yan Xing, don't intervene in this matter. Sister Zhao Di and your Li family members shouldn't intervene either."

Luo Yanxing looked at her, "You mean, find a thug?"

Song Ying was stunned. Why was Yan Xing's thinking so violent now? He was like a gangster.

"Well, what I mean is, leave it to Song Tian."

"Yes, leave it to Song Tian!" Luo Yanxing's eyes lit up, "He is now in the government office. Let him come forward. The Wan family will never think that we are taking revenge!"

"Okay, let's discuss the specifics with Song Tian when we get back. It's getting late, let's go to bed."

Luo Yanxing finally felt much better now that she had an outlet to vent her anger. However, she did not sleep well that night. She spent most of the first half of the night thinking about how to take revenge on the Wan family's second son, and only fell asleep in a daze in the second half.

After breakfast the next day, the two prepared to return to the city. As soon as they went out, they saw a young man of about seventeen or eighteen years old standing under the eaves of the Wan family next door, looking at the carriage in the Li family's yard.

Luo Yanxing's anger rose again and he glared at him fiercely. It was obvious that this was the second son of the Wan family.

The other party was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled provocatively.

Luo Yanxing could no longer suppress her anger and was about to rush over. Song Ying quickly pulled her back and whispered in her ear, "Don't be impulsive, don't be impulsive."

Luo Yanxing clenched his fists tightly and his teeth were chattering.

At this time, the driver came out from the main room and said, "Okay, both of you, let's go."

Luo Yanxing turned around and got on the carriage, suppressing his anger.

Song Ying followed him and smelled a strong smell of alcohol when she passed by the driver. She couldn't help but frowned: "Uncle, did you continue drinking with the peddler after you went back last night? Why do you smell so much alcohol? Are you still sober? You won't drive us into a ditch, will you?"

During dinner last night, the peddler learned that the driver was from the Chen family. He immediately became extremely attentive, calling him "old brother" all the time, and toasting him repeatedly. He even tried hard to invite the driver to his house to rest last night.

The driver of the Chen family did not notice anything unusual between them and the second son of the Wan family. He laughed and said, "Don't worry, I'm sober and I will make sure you go back safely."

As soon as he opened his mouth, there was another strong smell of alcohol, which made Song Ying take two steps back and doubt his words.

At this time, the peddler chased after him and said, "Brother, you left the medicinal wine behind."

When two drunkards gathered together, the smell of alcohol became even more pungent. Song Ying quickly got on the carriage, which slightly blocked out the smell of alcohol.

The driver slapped his forehead and said, "Oh, I forgot. Please help me."

"What's the trouble? I get along very well with my brother, and I was just here to see him off."

The driver sat on the shaft of the cart, drove the horse to move forward, and said to the peddler: "Don't worry, brother, I will definitely do your business properly."

The peddler's face was smiling like a flower, and he complimented the driver again.

The carriage slowly drove away from Shengli Village. After Luo Yanxing took dozens of deep breaths, the anger in her heart finally subsided. She decided to find Song Tian as soon as she returned.

She lifted the curtain and said to the driver, "Uncle, you can go in from the west gate first, take Song Ying to the clinic, and then take me to East Street."

"Okay." The driver had no objection. The Chen family was on East Street, so this would be more convenient for him.

The sun was shining brightly at noon, shining on each green plum. The upper part seemed transparent, making the green underneath even greener and more transparent, which looked very beautiful.

Yuan Qing held a green plum in her hand and looked at the passage carefully: "Auntie, can I just buy one green plum?"

Aunt Chen waved her hand, "No need to buy. You bought so many candied fruits. This one is for you. You can pick a few more. This one is so sour. It's inedible unless it's candied. I don't know why you like it so much."
