Farmhouse Green Plum

Chapter 148 Divide

Aunt Meihua didn't bother to teach her daughter a lesson. She pulled Song Ying in front of Li and said, "Song Ying, admit your mistake to your grandmother and this matter will be over. You are a ten-year-old child. You don't even have the strength to chop wood, let alone plow the land."

Qian Shi also advised: "Besides, you are a girl, and your father's land has been taken back by the village a long time ago. Without land, we uncles and aunts can't help you turn the land even if we are willing to take time out."

Li looked at Song Ying coldly, "You don't need to persuade me anymore. My Song family doesn't want such an unfilial and disobedient person! From now on, I will treat her as an irresistible granddaughter!"

"Aunt Li, don't say such angry words." Aunt Meihua said helplessly, and pushed Song Ying again, urging: "Why are you standing there? Hurry up and admit your mistake to your grandma."

Other aunties and grandmas also joined in urging Song Ying.

Song Ying laughed angrily, and a sharp pain arose in her heart. Tears rolled down uncontrollably from the corners of her eyes again. Her grandmother's expression was clearly threatening her.

She always knew what she was afraid of, but there was no word of comfort. Instead, at this time, the thing she feared was used to force her to submit.

Fortunately, the things that scared her before, she is no longer afraid now.

She took a deep breath and said, "Okay, let's split up."

"Aunt Li, look, Song Ying knows she's wrong, huh?"

Aunt Meihua finally reacted halfway through her words. She turned her head and stared at Song Ying in disbelief. "What nonsense are you talking about? You are so young, how are you going to survive if you are separated? How do you want outsiders to view your second uncle and second aunt?"

The others were also stunned. They couldn't believe that Song Ying could say such words. It took them a long time to follow Aunt Meihua in persuading Song Ying.

“You are still young and don’t know how hard it is to survive. Don’t think that you can support yourself just because you know a herb and can sell it for a little money.

Do you know how difficult it is to feed a person? For those of us who have land and fields, we don’t need to buy food or vegetables, but we can’t guarantee that we can feed our family;

There is no fixed amount of money you can earn from collecting herbs. Sooner or later, the herbs will run out. Without the tiger, what will you eat and drink?

Besides, you are a ten-year-old girl. Without an adult to watch over you, outsiders will bully you. It’s lucky that you are not kidnapped and sold. You are still thinking of selling herbs…”

Song Ying was unmoved. She didn't know whether it was easy to support others, but it must be easy to support her.

There are 360 days in a year, except for the special days that can be counted on one pair of hands, she only eats three bowls of porridge a day, no more;

She didn't need to make new clothes. She could just sew and alter old clothes from adults and they would become her clothes.

Minor illnesses can be overcome by just enduring them, and serious illnesses can be treated by just lying at home for two days. This is how I have always gotten through it.

She just didn't believe that if she spent all the money she earned on herself, she would end up living a worse life than before!

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and apologize to your grandma." Someone pushed her again.

Song Ying turned his head and said, "I am not wrong. I don't admit my mistake!"

As she spoke, she was worried that Li was just talking and would not really give her away, so she made up her mind and said, "This matter was all my idea. I took the blame at the beginning, and I was the one who decided not to tell your adults.

Yan Xing and the others don’t know how to fight the ground tiger, so they need me to teach them. They have to listen to me!”

Zhao Xiaocui, Zhou Meiyue and Zhou Nanxing were all stunned. They couldn't believe that Song Ying dared to say it so bluntly. Wasn't she afraid that her grandmother would be extremely angry and really separate her from the family?

They had spent a lot of time with Song Ying and had some understanding of the change in Song Ying's personality, but Xu Yulan was extremely surprised. How could this be the well-behaved and quiet Song Ying she knew?

There is also the ability to make money by picking herbs. She and Song Ying learned this together. Why didn't she think of picking them and selling them for money?

Zhao Xiaocui felt that Song Ying was confused and that was why she spoke without thinking. She gritted her teeth and said, "No, this matter..."

"Just tell me, am I worthy of taking the lead?" She had just started when she was interrupted by Song Ying.

Zhao Xiaocui was speechless. At first, only Song Ying knew about herbs. Even if she wasn't the first to do so, people would have to believe her.

Song Ying didn't give her a chance to speak, and continued, "Xiaoxiang was so scared at first, and I threatened her that if she told her family, I would not take her with me."

The aunts and grandmas who tried to persuade her fell silent, especially those who had girls at home. If it weren't for Song Ying's instigation, how much income would they have added a year?

I don’t know how much my girl has used and how much is left?

"Okay, okay, you're capable now, you've grown wings, and it's fine if you keep it to yourself, but you're also instigating others, just like your damned mother, you're cunning and selfish. There's no one like you in my Song family!" Li was so angry, "From now on, you can do whatever you want, I'll just treat the past ten years of food as wasted!"

Seeing that Li's attitude had changed further, not only did she want to separate Song Ying away, but she also didn't want to acknowledge her as her granddaughter. The aunts and sisters-in-law who were feeling unhappy had to suppress their unhappiness and persuade Li again.

Li sat back in her chair and turned around. She seemed hurt and didn't want to look at Song Ying any more.

"Look at how angry your grandma is. Go over and kneel down to surrender!" Someone pushed Song Ying.

Song Ying stiffened her neck, stepped back, pursed her lips and said nothing, but her meaning was very clear: she would rather be separated than give in to this weakness.

On the other hand, under the persuasion of the villagers, Li cried sadly and recounted the difficulties she had gone through.

"My life has been very hard. I married a useless man who dared not take responsibility for anything. I rely on my father to support the family.

After raising two sons with much difficulty, the eldest son was bewitched by the vixen from the Wang family and insisted on marrying her. Even after the baby was born, he refused to marry again, thus cutting off his own lineage.

Now this money-loser has grown up, his wings have hardened, and he is becoming more and more disobedient and unfilial..."

Song Ying snorted in her heart, and became more determined to separate. Living together, no matter how much work she did, in the eyes of Li and others, they were the ones who supported her, and would not give her any credit.

As long as she did something that didn't meet their expectations, she would be labeled as ignorant, disobedient and unfilial.

Li cried for fifteen minutes until the village chief and his son Zhou Shanchang came back from the market.

After finding out the whole story, the old village chief said a few words to Song Ying and also went to persuade Li.

Li seemed to be hurt and refused to forgive Song Ying, constantly complaining that Song Ying was unfilial.

The village chief was helpless. After thinking for a while, he said, "It's not possible to separate the family. It's not reasonable for a girl to be separated alone. It will be bad for her reputation if it gets out."
