Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“I don’t know what grandma heard from other people, but she thinks that we can make a lot ot money by selling clothes tor them. I told her that the three ot us can only make 10 yuan a day, but grandma didn’t believe and wanted to search .
“Our teacher told us that everyone has their own right to privacy. It’s illegal to search people, even if she’s my grandmother. She’s obviously embarrassing by doing this!”
“My grandmother doesn’t believe at all. She only heard a few words from others and thought that I was lying to her. I just want my family to live a better life. I’m happy that I found a job. Why does grandmother treat like this?”
The more she spoke, the more Xia Wan cried, as if Li Jin’s search was the cause of her agony.
More and more people gathered around, all looking like they were dying to watch a show.
Li Jin’s expression was a little ugly. She could oppress Xia Wan and her family without limit, but she didn’t like to be pointed at and criticized by others.
She couldn’t help but say to the people around her, “I’m just teaching my granddaughter a lesson. It’s none of your business. You can go back to your work.”
Her aning was very clear. This was her family’s private matter, and it was not up to outsiders to interrupt.
Hearing Li Jin’s attitude, everyone was a little unhappy and spoke up.
“We saw that your family was in a ss, so we ca to help. Why are you chasing us out? Are you really going to torture Xia Wan behind closed doors like she said?”
“Look at this child, he’s crying so pitifully. Is there anything you can’t say in front of everyone?”
Xia Wan, who was crying on the ground, knew very well that when two people were arguing, the audience would subconsciously sympathize with the weaker one. Li Jin was used to being tyrannical, so she naturally wouldn’t show weakness in front of outsiders. Thus, the power of public opinion would lean towards her side.
Xia Wan also sobbed and said to Li Jin, “Grandma, if you’re unhappy with , you can just tell . I’ll definitely change if I can, but why did you search ?”
The people around them were also speaking up for Xia Wan.
Li Jin could tell that these people had no intention of leaving.
She believed what Xia Ye said, so she said in front of everyone, “Don’t you have any sons or grandchildren? The children’s money should be handed over to , the head of the household.
“It’s a good thing that Xia Wan and the others found a job, but she lied to , her grandmother. She clearly made a lot of money every day, but she told that the three of them only made 10 yuan a day.
“Then where did she put the extra money? I have three sons, and all the money earned by the other children goes to . Why are Xia Wan and the other two exceptions?
“If I let Xia Wan lie to like this, wouldn’t it be unfair to the other children? how can I treat this family?
“Every family has its own issues. I don’t care how you deal with each other, but we have to be fair in our family. So, I’m going to search Xia Wan now to see if she’s lying to . Is there anything wrong with earning a lot and not handing it over?”
After hearing Li Jin’s words, everyone looked at each other. Then, Mr. Liu, who had more authority in the village, stood up.
Mr. Liu looked at Xia Wan and asked, “Is what your grandmother said true? Did you really earn a lot but lie to your grandma and not hand it over?”
Xia Wan continued to cry.
Mr. Liu’s tone softened. “We’re all here now. If you have any grievances, or if you haven’t made things clear with your grandmother, you can speak frankly in front of us. We can also help you judge who’s right and who’s wrong.”
Xia Wan continued to cry.
Mr. Liu’s tone softened. “We’re all here now. If you have any grievances, or if you haven’t made things clear with your grandmother, you can speak frankly in front of us. We can also help you judge who’s right and who’s wrong.”
Xia Wan seed to have gained Mr. Liu’s support. She slowly stood up and said to the crowd, “The three of us only make 10 yuan a day. You can search if you want, but I want to know how you’re going to compensate if you find that I don’t have any extra money on .
When she said this, Xia Wan stared at Li Jin.
The others also looked at Li Jin.
“If I can’t find any extra money on you to prove that you’re telling the truth, so what? You’re just proving your innocence. What compensation do I need to give you?” Li Jin argued rhethorically.
Li Jin lifted her chin and continued arrogantly, “I’m your biological grandmother and I raised your father.. Without your father, where would you be? You’re actually here to challenge your biological grandmother, so why do I have to apologize for executing a search?”
