"Grandma Wang, Im counting on you this time. My May is not getting any younger, you see..." Sarah Shu said, casting a meaningful glance at May Wu, who immediately lowered her head.
After being glared at by May, Grandma Wang also became displeased and "spoke with deep concern" to Sarah. "Sarah, I think your May is quite stubborn. She might suffer a lot after marrying into the Wang family. In my opinion, lets just forget about this!" With that, Grandma Wang waved her hand and walked towards her own home.
"Ah, Grandma Wang, dont leave! Youve seen May grow up, you know her character. If she marries over, well still be relatives, wont we?" Sarahs conversation with Grandma Wang made May feel uncomfortable.
"Mom, lets go back, I wont marry!" Mays heart was even more blocked.
"Snap!" A slap hit her face, and blood oozed from the corner of her mouth! Tears wanted to flow down, but she forced them back!
No crying, people will laugh. No crying, hold on! Unable to hold back, May turned and ran outside the village.
"Brat, do you think you dont have to marry just by running away? I tell you, even if youre dead, you have to marry!" Sarahs angry voice came from behind, and Mays pace became faster and faster!
It was a foregone conclusion that she would marry Walter Wang. What should she do, what should she do!
The two returned home one after the other, and before they had time to sit down, Sarah spoke directly!
"May! Youre not young anymore, and you know, your dad hasnt been lucky this year, and he cant earn money at the construction site. We are about to run out of food! What should mom do?" May quietly lowered her head, listening to her next words, usually at this time, she would say so.
"Your mom and I, with Grandma Wang, have found a marriage for you. When can you meet that boy? His home is not far from ours, just in the next village. Speaking of which, you know him too, its the Walter Wang known by everyone in the surrounding villages. Can you find a time to see him?" Sarahs words instantly turned Mays face pale. Ha ha... Walter Wang, probably no one in the whole village doesnt know him!
Hes in his sixties, he could be her grandfather, and hes supposed to go on a blind date with such a person.
May collapsed on the side, unable to believe that Sarah really treated herself like this.
She originally thought that as long as she was obedient and gave her the scholarship, she wouldnt make things difficult for her, but she didnt expect that she had prepared such a big gift waiting for her.
"Mom, I want to continue studying!" After a long time, May spoke in a hoarse voice.
"Study? Dont you know theres no food at home? Study, even if you dont think about yourself, you should think about your dad. Those people come to our house to collect debts every three or five days. Youre not blind, cant you see? Still dreaming of studying, I tell you, in this life, dont even think about it..." As soon as Sarah heard May say she wanted to study, she immediately became furious.
"Mom, the teacher said that as long as I go to study, the school can waive all my tuition fees, I want to..." Before May could finish her sentence, she received another slap, which made her head buzz, this was the second slap she received today!
"You think, do you think everything is up to you? If your dead dad could make money, would we be so down and out?" Sarah ranted at May, her eyes almost popping out of anger!
"You still want to study, you unlucky star, Ill beat you to death..." While speaking, Sarah punched and kicked May, and because May had been malnourished for a long time, she was small, and she had always been afraid of Sarah, so she could only squat in the corner, covering her head, allowing Sarah to beat her.
Time seemed to slow down at this moment, and May didnt know how long Sarah had beaten her before stopping. When she got up timidly, she found that Sarah had already left!
She was left alone in this dilapidated yard, squatting in the corner, shivering.
She didnt dare to get up, afraid that she would further provoke Sarah, and then she might face an even more severe beating.
It had been a long time, and it was dark, deep into the night! The lights in the house had long been extinguished, and the sound of crickets filled her ears. Suddenly, the night became quiet, and the whole world became unusually quiet.
From time to time, the buzzing of mosquitoes sounded in her ears. She just waved her hand, and then squatted in the corner again!
Just as May was in unbearable pain and her limbs were numb, and she was about to get up, a flashlight light shone from the house. May immediately curled up, hiding in the corner, her heart full of fear. She looked at the light fearfully.
When the door was gently opened, May saw the figure behind the light was her brother, Ken Wu.
"Sis, come in quickly, mom is asleep!" Ken whispered to May.
At this time, in addition to joy, Mays eyes were filled with gratitude beyond words.
On this quiet night, its not very cold outside, but she hasnt eaten all day. She was taken to Grandma Wangs house by Sarah early in the morning. At noon, because Sarah ate at Grandma Wangs house, she didnt go home out of anger. In the afternoon, when Sarah found her, the two returned one after the other! So she has been hungry until now, her stomach has been growling for a long time!
"Sis, be quiet, Ill find you something to eat in the kitchen!" After bringing May back to the house, Ken sneaked out again. Because he didnt dare to turn on the light, he could only walk in the house with a flashlight.
Sarah, who was not sleeping soundly, immediately woke up when she saw the flashlight light shaking in the house. She was afraid that a thief had come in. When she tiptoed and opened the door, she saw Ken taking a bun out of the kitchen. Seeing his sneaky appearance, she immediately understood why her son was doing this!
At that moment, her fingers fiercely embedded into the palm of her hand. Kens action directly angered Sarah, who was hiding behind the door and peeking.
The next day, May got up early to make breakfast, her arms were bruised, which made her frown, but soon she returned to calm.
She was used to such days! Now she just wants to find an opportunity to slip into the city to see her dad, maybe he has a way to let her continue to go to school.
But she doesnt know the way out of the village, let alone the long way to the big city. It would take ten days and half a month to get there on foot without taking a car.
And she has no money on her, how can she go!
While cooking, May was thinking of ways.
After breakfast, Sarah and Grandma Wang left with laughter and talk! Not long after, they came back and told May to go to school to handle the withdrawal procedures, since she had already graduated! And May was beaten severely last night, so she didnt dare to disobey. She immediately put down her work and followed Sarah out!
Sarah sent May to the edge of the village before going back.
A few hours later!
"May, the grades are about to come out, Im so excited, Im so worried!" Sunny excitedly held Mays hand for a long time, her face full of excitement, which was a stark contrast to Mays indifference.
"Students, congratulations on your successful graduation. Now I will announce the grades..." The teachers words sounded in her ears, but May was not very happy.
"The top of the grade, May Wu! Congratulations to everyone!" The teachers voice came again, but May didnt raise her head at all, but was lost in her own thoughts.
"May, May... The teacher is calling you!" Sunny shook
