"Little boss, this is what happened. My mom asked around and heard that I could make several hundred yuan a month delivering lunch boxes in the store, so she wanted me to give the job to my brother."

"Otherwise, give your family 300 yuan a month."

Liu Xiangmei pursed her lips.

She was unwilling to give 300 yuan to her family or give the job to her brother.

It’s not that she is not grateful to her adoptive mother and her family, but that she knows her adoptive mother and cousin too well.

Asking her for money and a job is just the first step. When she has no money to go to school, she will have to listen to her family's arrangements. Her adoptive mother will quickly find a family with both sons and daughters but no money to marry her son off. The two families will exchange their marriages, marry her off to the family, and give her cousin a new wife...

Besides, she couldn't just hire anyone she wanted to take over the job at the fast food restaurant.

Liu Xiangmei had heard from the store manager a long time ago that the store was going to recruit some full-time deliverymen from the local area so that they could deliver more lunch boxes every day.

But the boss was kind-hearted. He heard that their Foreign Languages ​​University had many poor college students who couldn't afford to eat, so he insisted on leaving the deliveryman job to the students as a part-time job.

He would rather earn less money himself so that they can earn some living expenses every month and have two greasy "work meals" in the store every day.

Liu Xiangmei was grateful for Jiang Tian's kindness to her group of poor students. No matter how her mother pestered her, she gritted her teeth and refused to give in.

Besides, her brother is not a student and her family is not so poor that they can't afford to eat. Why should they take up the part-time job opportunities of those truly poor college students?

After listening to Liu Xiangmei's words, Jiang Tian nodded and said, "Sister Xiaomei, I think you can't deliver food today. Pack up and I'll have someone prepare a work meal for you. Go back to the dormitory and read."

She didn't want Liu Xiangmei to confront her adoptive mother's family head-on.

After all, this is the traditional culture of the Chinese nation, which always says "There are no parents who are not wrong."

It seems that as long as the child is their own, no matter how the parents abuse or exploit their children, the children cannot resist, let alone criticize their parents, otherwise it would be considered unfilial.

In the area of ​​the Foreign Languages ​​University, at night, there are a lot of people setting up stalls nearby and watching the fun. I guess Sister Xiaomei's adoptive mother chose this time on purpose to cause trouble.

After all, the more people who watch, the more she can use moral blackmail to suppress Liu Xiangmei.

Especially since Liu Xiangmei is not her biological daughter.

To outsiders who don’t know the inside story, if Liu Xiangmei hadn’t been kind enough to adopt her, her biological parents might have drowned her in a dung bucket. How could she have survived to go to college here?

The grace of raising a child is greater than heaven. No matter what, Feng Xiuhua, the adoptive mother, has raised Liu Xiangmei to this age. Look at how raggedly dressed she is and how pale and skinny she is.

Look at Liu Xiangmei again, wearing a school uniform, riding a bicycle, and with a rosy face. Once the two sides come into conflict, those spectators who do not know the truth will definitely stand on Feng Xiuhua's side.

Liu Xiangmei didn't want to leave.

"Young boss, you better let me out. At most, my mom can beat her up a few times to vent her anger. She's a very difficult person to deal with. If I run away, she will definitely stay at the door of the store and won't leave."

What you fear will come true.

After discovering that her daughter was dragged into the fast food restaurant by the owner and never came out again, Feng Xiuhua thought that her daughter was secretly released by the owner through the back door, and immediately started making a fuss at the door.

This woman didn't want to leave any chance for her adopted daughter to survive. She scolded her so harshly in front of so many people, with a lot of maternal connotations throughout. Come to think of it, after all, Liu Xiangmei's biological mother is not her, but her sister-in-law. They probably don't have a good relationship with each other, so she took the opportunity to scold her together.

While cursing, he pointed at the Foreign Languages ​​University across the street and said that girls should not go to university. The teachers in the school do not teach good things but only bad things, and have taught students to the point that they don't even recognize their own parents.

Feng Xiuhua thought this was in the village. As long as she said a few words about how bad college students were, there would definitely be a group of people around her who would agree with her.

After all, in all these years, their village has only produced one real college student, Liu Xiangmei, and she’s a girl. How can those families who have given birth to sons save face?

The villagers had long been envious and jealous of the Liu family for having a female college student. When they heard Liu Xiangmei's adoptive mother come out to slander her adopted daughter, of course they followed suit and added insult to injury.

It seemed that as long as it was proven that Liu Xiangmei was a morally corrupt woman, it would be possible to prove that she, as a college student, was nothing special. Not to mention that their son would not be able to pass the entrance exam, even if he could, they would not want to go to such a school!

It’s a pity that Fangjie’s fast food restaurant is right opposite the University of Foreign Languages, and most of the people who come here to shop, eat and buy things are students and teachers from the school.

Even the street vendors make their money from these college students. How could they possibly say bad things about college students to their faces?

When Jiang Tian heard her stabbing herself, she almost died of laughter. She was waiting for the college students to stand up and scold Feng Xiuhua, but she didn't expect that the first person to stand up was Mr. Han.

No, this Lao Dong...old man, when did he hide in their store?

Mr. Han is very knowledgeable, but from his previous communication with his daughter, it can be seen that this old man’s emotional intelligence and speaking skills are really worrying!

When talking to this kind of person, people with a slightly worse mentality will be pissed off by him, but it's so funny to see him talking to others.

The old man looked at Feng Xiuhua with contempt, as if his mouth was dipped in poison, and every word he uttered pierced Feng Xiuhua's heart.

"Your son doesn't want to go to this crappy university? There's no way he'll be able to get in, right?"

"You didn't go to college, but you raised your children well? Why don't you think about why your son didn't get into college?"

"You can't teach students well as a university teacher? Why don't you go to the Foreign Languages ​​University across the street and apply for a lecturer position? I see that you are quite confident in your teaching ability. The school will definitely hire you. Go ahead!"

“Hahahaha~” The students watching burst into laughter.

There were also people cheering and telling Feng Xiuhua not to be scared and to apply for the lecturer position at the University of Foreign Languages ​​right away. It would be a shame if she was so good at educating children but didn't go to university to be a teacher!

Feng Xiuhua's face suddenly turned red.

What she said just now were actually what the villagers usually say to comfort themselves, such as "there's nothing good about college" and "college students are all nerds who don't understand the ways of the world". Those people say these things because their own children can't get into college, right?

Otherwise, you can ask them, since there is no use in taking the college entrance examination, why do they tighten their belts and send their boys to school?

Feng Xiuhua was humiliated in person by the sharp-tongued old man Han. She couldn't win the argument and wanted to put on airs as an elder, but the old man opposite looked older than her.

As the saying goes, “If you can’t win an argument, just lie down.” Feng Xiuhua ruffled her hair, slapped her thigh, and yelled, “A bunch of college students are bullying a country guy like me. I’m not going to live anymore.”

Then he ran to the side of the road and lay down.

Fuck! Are you really not afraid of death?
