Chapter 1284: Chapter 1203:
The woman speaking was none other than Cui Shuicao, who, years ago, entangled Meng Xingsheng and pushed him onto a crooked path, resulting in him being caught by the police and sent to a labor camp.
She was released around the same time as Meng Xingsheng, but they were not sent to the same labor camp back then.
Due to days spent smashing rocks, quarrying stones, and carrying them with a pole, Cui Shuicao’s appearance had long lost its youthful charm and beauty. Now, though she was only in her twenties,
she looked like a woman in her early thirties, accustomed to farm work, with dry hair and clothes patched over patches, barely fitting her. The first impression she gave was messy, just slightly better than a street beggar.
"Pah! To hell with your misunderstanding. A vicious, shameless woman like you is not welcome by our third brother. Pack up and go back to your home; your father and brothers are probably waiting for you to cook and feed them!"
Cui Shuicao’s mother was arrested back then and hasn’t been released, as she was directly involved in her family brothers’ human trafficking case.
She was sentenced to fifteen years of labor reform.
To regain freedom, just endure it slowly!
"Auntie, I’m begging you, please?" Cui Shuicao was already immensely resentful of Wang Guilan. If she could, she’d strangle Wang Guilan immediately so no one would stop her from marrying Meng Xingsheng.
Having returned to the village for several months already, Cui Shuicao learned from Mr. Cui without even needing to inquire that the Meng Family prospered over the years. Not only producing an industrial worker, but also two officials and a university student, enjoying a fine life in the village.
Therefore, Cui Shuicao vowed secretly to get back together with Meng Xingsheng by all means. Unfortunately, Meng Xingsheng didn’t want to pay her any mind. Even seeing her from afar, he’d change direction and avoid her as if she were a pest, fearing he’d stink if he touched her.
It was enough to drive anyone mad!
Seeing Cui Shuicao kneeling and not getting up, Wang Guilan grabbed a broom and walked over: "Vile, shameless woman! Our third brother would rather stay single for life than marry a poisonous woman like you! Are you leaving or not? If you don’t, don’t blame me for sweeping you out with a broom!"
"Auntie, I’m begging you!"
Cui Shuicao knocked her head three times hard on the ground, crying: "If I can’t be with Brother Xingsheng, my father will listen to Jiabao and marry me off to Lame Wang from the neighboring brigade. Auntie, I beg you, please be kind..."
"Who are you mourning for? I’m alive and well..." Wang Guilan spat as she raised the broom intending to hit Cui Shuicao.
At this moment, Meng Xingsheng’s voice came from the main room: "Mom, go eat; I’ll talk to her."
Persuading Wang Guilan back into the main room and placing the broom back in its place, Meng Xingsheng looked at Cui Shuicao expressionlessly: "Leave. We’ve been divorced for a while. If you still have some dignity, don’t come see me again, and don’t cause a scene at my house."
"Brother Xingsheng... do you really want to watch me marry Lame Wang?"
Cui Shuicao cried inconsolably as she faced Meng Xingsheng’s inscrutable gaze: "My father is forcing me to death! Brother Xingsheng, if you don’t marry me, the next thing you see will be my corpse!"
"If you’ve lived enough and want to die, feel free. It has nothing to do with me."
Meng Xingsheng’s tone was indifferent.
Remembering the past, he felt deceived by this woman miserably. He broke ties with his family and even tried to snatch his nephew and niece for a high price.
And with one wrong step, every step after was wrong, rooted in Cui Shuicao’s manipulative words, leading to... leading to several years of labor reform.
In contrast, his brothers, each with the help of the Luo Family older brother, accomplished something, while he... he alone, because of a woman, became the subject of village gossip, a burden to his family, and a waste he detested himself.
Meng Xingsheng sighed deeply in his heart; even if he never married in this life, he would never have any involvement with the woman before him!
"Brother Xingsheng, how can you be so heartless?"
Cui Shuicao stood up from the ground, tears of disappointment, and pain in her eyes: "Lame Wang hits people. His previous wife died from his beating. You’re willing to watch me marry such a man? Brother Xingsheng, have you forgotten how much you used to like me?
