If Xiao Qian didn’t speak up, Yu Minglang would be Mother Yu’s number one scumbag, and lie wouldn’t be able to clear his name in the future.
Xiao Qian spoke about this issue in a very calm manner, without worrying about whether Mother Yu’s attitude towards her would change because of this. Xiao Qian didn’t want her Xiao Qiang to be blamed for something he didn’t experience.
Although he sometimes acted foolishly towards her, he was genuinely good to her, and the proud balance in Xiao Qian’s heart would not allow such a thing to happen.
“I admit that because of my personal negligence, the kidnapping and trafficking incident happened. Even though I rescued myself from the crisis later on, it was my fault in the end. I can’t let Ming Lang bear the consequences of my mistake. Although you and the family know that I’m fine, the rumors about the future daughter-in-law of the Yu family will have an impact on the family. So…”
Yu Minglang, who was eavesdropping on the other side of the door, couldn’t take it anymore.
What was she planning on doing?
Was she going to be honest with his mother and then break up with him?
Unable to contain himself, Yu Minglang kicked the door open and pointed at Xiao Qian, rebuking her sharply.
“Chen Xiaoqian, what did you promise me? Didn’t you say you wouldn’t bring up this breaking-up topic anymore? You’re wearing the ring I bought, and you accepted my proposal. How can you do this!”
Mother Yu didn’t expect Yu Minglang to be eavesdropping outside, and his sudden intrusion startled her.
Xiao Qian was slightly taken aback, but not too surprised. She knew that her mischievous Xiao Qiang would definitely eavesdrop.
“I didn’t want to break up; I promised you, and I will keep my word.”
“Then why did you mention it!” Now, whenever Yu Minglang heard anything about breaking up, he would react like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, scratching everywhere. Xiao Mei was the apple of his eye. Even mentioning breaking up was enough to scratch her!
“What I wanted to say is that we shouldn’t let such rumors spread since it would affect our family.”
Yu Minglang breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it wasn’t about breaking up, anything else was fine.
“Go on.” Mother Yu calmly looked at Xiao Qian, her expression revealing neither joy nor sorrow.
“If you walk the right path, you won’t fear any crooked shadows. Even though I’m fine, I shouldn’t be bothered by other people’s gossip, but this involves Ming Lang. If we don’t suppress the rumors, and they spread outside, it will have an impact on Ming Lang later.”
“Whoever dares to gossip, I’ll fucking kill them!”
“Killing them will only make you seem more guilty.” Xiao Qian knew that Yu Minglang was just venting his anger, and he wasn’t really an unreliable person. “So, how do you plan to deal with it?” Mother Yu asked Xiao Qian.
“I agree with Ming Lang’s approach, to investigate thoroughly and find out who is behind this incident. In fact, rumors can be either big or small, and dealing with them is not difficult. But we can’t let someone manipulate things from behind the scenes. The person causing trouble over and over again, what exactly is her purpose? Is she targeting Ming Lang or even Uncle? We need to find out and suppress it once and for all, so she won’t cause any more trouble.”
After listening, Mother Yu waved her hand at Yu Minglang.
“You go out; I want to talk to Xiao Qian for a while.”
Being the most perceptive, Yu Minglang saw that his mother was no longer as gentle as usual and feared that she would dislike Xiao Qian. He grabbed Xiao Qian’s arm anxiously.
“If you want to talk to her, can’t you do it in front of me? We’re already engaged. I’m going to marry her for sure. Not to mention that she’s smart enough to protect herself, but even if she made a mistake, it’s my fault for not protecting her properly. Now everything is alright, isn’t it? Mom, what are you trying to do!”
Yu Minglang blamed Xiao Qian for being talkative about such a sensitive topic. Why did she have to mention it?
He had finally succeeded in proposing. What if things went awry!
Xiao Qian pushed Yu Minglang back.
“You go out; I can handle this.”
“No!”
“It’s okay; even if you don’t trust me, you should trust your mother.”
From the moment she decided to tell the truth, she had been mentally prepared. If Mother Yu had other thoughts, it would be normal, but she wanted to speak up and not let her Xiao Qiang take the blame as a scumbag.
Mother Yu nodded, “Xiao Qian is more sensible than you. You go out!”
Yu Minglang didn’t want to go, but if Mother Yu demanded, he had to leave, looking back every few steps.
“If you dare to eavesdrop again, watch your skin!”
Mother Yu warned, and this time Yu Minglang couldn’t eavesdrop anymore.
Mother Yu pointed to a chair, signaling Xiao Qian to sit down opposite her. She seemed to be thinking about something and took a long time before she started talking.
“Gossiping can cause immense damage to a woman. It can be even more frightening than the actual harm.”
“Yes, I know.”
Xiao Qian had just discussed this topic with Jia Xiufang at night.
After an issue arises, people often condemn the victim rather than the perpetrator. Many innocent women have to bear such a secondary injury. The only ones who may genuinely understand them are their family members.
“I want to tell you a true story.” Mother Yu recalled something from a long time ago, feeling very sad.
Xiao Qian listened patiently.
“I had a good sister from my Aunt’s family, who was few years older than me. We often chatted together when we were single, and we were very close. She got married later, but there was no consummation on the wedding night… and that was when her nightmare began.”
People say that they’ve entered a new era, divorced from feudalism, where women can divorce and remarry. But some people still care about such things. Don’t think that only the rural or uneducated people care about it. Many educated and high-status people care about it as well.
The influence of male chauvinism has nothing to do with one’s family background or education level.
“I can imagine that it would be tough if they were dealing with someone who cared a lot about such issues.” Not just in Mother Yu’s time, but a few years later, when Xiao Qian established her studio, she occasionally encountered one or two similar cases.
Perhaps people’s views were not as open as they imagined. It could only be said that there were fewer men who cared about it ten years later, but it wasn’t that there were none. It became pathological, and everything was related to it, making it impossible to continue.
“They were freely in love, and everything was great before the marriage. But after the marriage, the man accused her of infidelity and made life difficult for her. He always found excuses to quarrel and even beat her. Moreover, he stubbornly refused to admit that it was because there was no consummation on the wedding night. We medical professionals know that about 30% of women don’t bleed the first time they have sex. It’s not a small percentage. However, the impact of fixed ideas on people can’t be explained by science.”
“What happened later?”
“Later…” Mother Yu’s nose turned sour.
That memory was something she really didn’t want to think about.
That was the first time she saw a corpse in her life, and it was of her closest sister.
“No matter how she explained, the man wouldn’t listen, and the family didn’t agree to divorce either. She thought that she could endure it and move on, but even after giving birth to their son, she didn’t receive any goodwill. The conflicts seemed to intensify, and the man not only scolded her but also often yelled that their son was a bastard. Once, the man got drunk and blurted it out, and since then, all the colleagues knew that he had married a ‘slut’.”
