Chapter 300 The Little Deaf-Mute of the Era 16
To be honest, Liu Yuxi doesn't plan to get married in this life; it's too difficult to find a suitable partner.
Even decades later, most people still cannot treat people with disabilities equally; it's just that as the overall quality of the population improves, people no longer openly discriminate against them.
Ask yourself honestly, how many families in future generations can accept that their perfectly fine child will marry someone with a disability?
Most people still believe that fish should seek fish, shrimp should seek shrimp, and turtles should seek turtles. This was especially true in the 1980s.
Since ancient times, it has been human nature for Chinese people to be curious and discerning. Similarly, China has relatively traditional standards for judging marriage and relationships.
Liu Yuxi doesn't want to get married simply because she's more comfortable being single; at worst, she'll just be constantly bothered by others.
Moreover, even if she gets married according to current standards, regardless of how her life is, she will still live in the gossip of those around her. Why bother?
Besides, she has so many brothers and sisters in her life, and she'll definitely have many nieces and nephews in the future. At worst, she can just live with her brothers and sisters in her old age, since she's rich anyway.
She plans to stall for time, and once she earns more and more money, her family will probably stop objecting. If conditions allow, I think no parent would want their child to suffer mistreatment in someone else's home.
The vast majority of parents of disabled children hope that their children will find a partner and get married, simply because they are afraid that after they pass away, there will be no one to take care of their children.
Once you establish a routine in your daily life, time will fly by.
The family followed the tide of the times, opening more and more clothing stores and buying more and more houses. People at the bottom of society who have no investment awareness only have two thoughts after making money: one is to buy a house, and the other is to deposit it in the bank.
With Liu Yuxi in the family, they must have bought a house. Of course, each family also bought a lot of gold jewelry and gold bars, which is quite a good deal.
As for the rest, let her nephews and nieces take care of it.
Liu Yuxi also bought three storefronts to sell clothes. Her older siblings hired people to manage them, and the daily sales revenue was deposited into her account. She would then review the accounts at the end of each month.
As she published more and more works, many of which were published as physical books and adapted into films and television series, her wealth also increased.
So when she was 26, she made it clear to her family that she did not want to get married. Although her family was a little conflicted, as the years went by, she did not find a suitable partner, and her family had no choice but to compromise.
In this life, apart from the first two years after she transmigrated and learned to speak, Liu Yuxi lived a relatively smooth life. It was just a pity that her original thoughts before transmigrating were not true; she could not empathize with people with disabilities and could only say that they had a hard time.
Feeling a little guilty, Liu Yuxi donated most of the money he earned in this life to charitable foundations of this kind.
As for Liu Yuxi, she often donated money. Only Zhang Dani would sometimes grumble about it, but she never objected.
Although they couldn't do what Liu Yuxi did, after all, their money was earned through hard work from dawn till dusk, and each family had so many children, they still managed to pool their money to build a road for the village in 90.
They contributed the majority of the funds, while the villagers contributed a smaller portion. Then, led by the clan chief, they built a cement road for the village.
"It's like wearing fine clothes at night if you don't return home in wealth and honor." They still hold onto old ideas; even if they have extra money, they're only willing to spend it on these kinds of things.
When Liu Yuxi returned to the village to repair the road, she inquired about the situation of her original husband and his two companions. Well, they had all starved to death by their own family members a couple of years ago. Serves them right!
At this time, the principle is "if the people don't report it, the officials won't investigate." In this situation, everyone knows how these three people died, but at most people will say that the two brothers are ruthless, but no one will bother to call the police.
Liu Yuxi wasn't sure if this counted as revenge for the original owner. She had originally planned to stick a dozen needles into each of the three people's bodies, so that they could at least experience this kind of pain.
But she couldn't accept this behavior. People who abide by the law really can't cross many bottom lines. She could only sigh and say, "Our mother taught us so well!"
It seems that apart from being able to harm people during those ordinary years, even in feudal society, she couldn't bring herself to do it.
I'm so glad she transmigrated to low-level martial arts worlds, thankfully she has the "superhuman strength" attribute, and thankfully she has spatial abilities and mental power; otherwise, she probably wouldn't have survived more than two chapters! Thanks, Xiao Liu!
"Six!"
"I am here!"
"Am I sure I won't end up in some kind of apocalyptic world with superpowers, or some kind of bizarre world of cultivation?"
"No, don't worry, host. A low-martial-world is a low-martial-world. A world like Tianlong is already a tiny bit over the limit, and it will definitely not exceed it!"
"Ok!"
Well, I feel relieved, but why am I also a little disappointed?
She inexplicably had a "desire to be defeated" mentality. Could this be the loneliness of being invincible?
Hehe, it's just that her mom isn't here. If her mom knew about her experiences and thoughts, she would only roll her eyes and say three words: "She's just asking for it!"
Putting those thoughts aside, after seeing her grandparents off in this life, she would occasionally take Liu Erzhu and Niu Xiaolan on trips, and sometimes she would also take Liu Dazhu and Wang Xiaomei with her.
However, they preferred to help their son take care of his grandchildren, so they didn't visit often.
There are so many beautiful sights in China that she hasn't even seen them all after all these years.
The main reason is that the country has developed too fast in the last few decades. If you go to the same city again after five years, you will see different scenery.
Fortunately, she has a near-infinite lifespan, so she can take her time to see.
After Liu Erzhu and Niu Xiaolan left, and after all her brothers and sisters retired, the families moved together. It wasn't a traditional courtyard house, but a resettlement community near the Third Ring Road. They just wanted some liveliness!
In a neighborhood full of elderly people, you can find companions for anything you do, and there are activities to arrange every day. If you mention traveling, the neighborhood can organize a group on its own. If you don't show up in the neighborhood for half a day, people will ask about you. Isn't that great!
In this life, she was able to live an unexpectedly long life, seeing off all her brothers and sisters. It wasn't until she was 106 years old that she clearly felt the passing of life.
Perhaps it was after she turned 80 that no one around her called her "that deaf person" anymore. After all, it's not uncommon for people in their 80s to be hard of hearing. On the contrary, her mind became clearer after she turned 80.
Even though this world is just a part of her life's journey, she still absorbed a lot of negative energy. Because of her mental strength, she's heard far too many people talking about her behind her back or even to her face—it's so annoying!
Fortunately, the last twenty years of his life were relatively peaceful. Having already made a will, Liu Yuxi left this world with an indescribable emotion.
