The next morning, Mrs. Liang called Liang Guangchuan to her room, where Liang Qing was massaging her grandmother's legs. Liang Guangchuan noticed that his mother's face was a little gloomy, and he couldn't help but feel inexplicably uneasy. Did he do something to make his mother unhappy? Or was his mother in a bad mood when she saw Liang Sumei coming back?

Old Lady Liang asked straight to the point: "Guangchuan, do you know about Sumei and Zhao Xifa?"

This question confused Liang Guangchuan. He couldn't imagine that his honest daughter would have any relationship with a sneaky second-rate guy. He shook his head.

"Hmph, your good daughter is flirting with other girls outside, and you, as her father, don't know how to discipline her." There was obvious dissatisfaction and disappointment in Mrs. Liang's tone.

Mrs. Liang's words were like a stone that hit Liang Guangchuan's heart hard. "Who is she hooking up with? Zhao Xifa?" He asked in surprise, his eyes full of disbelief.

"It's not just Zhao Xifa, there's also that bunch of educated youth from the city. You see, I wouldn't say anything if she was only good friends with Zhao Xifa, but she set her sights on the educated youths. She doesn't even look at her own character and always hangs out with the educated youths. City people are well-mannered, so even if they feel disgusted with her, they can't say anything about her on the surface. But she should have some self-knowledge. If the villagers see this, they will think that our Liang family is trying to climb up the social ladder. Where can I put my old face? Alas!" Old Mrs. Liang sighed.

After listening to his mother's complaints, Liang Guangchuan was furious. He didn't expect that his seemingly honest daughter would be so fickle, eating from the bowl and looking at the pot. He immediately lost his temper and said angrily: "Mom, don't be angry, I will go and ask her. If it's really like you said, I will break her legs!" As he said that, he was about to rush out of the door angrily.

"Stop!" Old Lady Liang shouted, "How could what I said be false? If you ask her, she won't admit it!"

Liang Guangchuan stopped, turned around and asked with difficulty, "What should we do now?"

"Hmph, go find Zhao Xifa in the next two days and ask him to prepare 100 kilograms of flour as a betrothal gift and quickly marry Su Mei so that she will give up the idea of ​​being an educated youth. Otherwise, she will do something embarrassing over time. If that happens, our Liang family will really be criticized." Old Mrs. Liang had a serious face and her tone was full of unquestionable determination.

Liang Guangchuan frowned, feeling reluctant. He knew Zhao Xifa very well. He was a thief who didn't do his job properly. Although he didn't like his daughter, she was his own flesh and blood after all. How could he let her marry such a man? If she was going to marry, she had to marry someone who was honest and decent. "Mom, how about we try again?" he asked tentatively.

When Mrs. Liang heard this, her face immediately darkened. "Choose? She still wants to choose? I think you are crazy. She is a lame woman, it's good enough that someone is willing to marry her. She is in this state now, unable to carry anything, which good family would be interested in her? If you delay it any longer, she will become an old maid, and you will have to support her for the rest of her life."

Liang Guangchuan was speechless after hearing his mother's words. He was silent for a while and then said, "Mom, why don't I discuss this with Su Mei?"

Liang Qing, who was standing by, felt nervous when she heard this. If Liang Sumei knew about this, she would definitely object, and her plan would be ruined. So she quickly interrupted and tried to speak softly, "Uncle, I don't think we can discuss this with my cousin. If my cousin doesn't agree, and she and the educated youth really cause something that no one wants to see, then it will be too late for us to regret it. There is no precedent in our village. Have you forgotten Wang Xiao'e?"

When Wang Xiao'e was mentioned, Liang Guangchuan's face changed. Of course, he remembered Wang Xiao'e's story. Back then, Wang Xiao'e fell in love with an educated youth who went to Tianwa Village, and she became pregnant. But the educated youth abandoned her after returning to the city. Now she lives alone with her child and has a very difficult life. This incident was widely spread in Tianwa Village and became a topic of conversation after dinner.

Liang Guangchuan shuddered at the thought that his daughter might follow Wang Xiao'e's old path. Although Zhao Xifa was not a good person, his daughter was lame after all, so it was good enough that she could find someone willing to marry her.

Mrs. Liang also agreed at this time, "Xiao Qing is right. We can't have a female hooligan like Wang Xiao'e in our family."

Although Liang Guangchuan was somewhat reluctant, he nodded and agreed. He decided to discuss the matter with Zhao Xifa as soon as possible. Before that, he had to stop Liang Sumei from going to the construction site and contacting the educated youth.

Liang Sumei caught a glimpse of her father's worried look and unhappy eyes, and she had a premonition in her heart. No need to ask, it must be Old Lady Liang gossiping in her father's ear again, saying nothing but bad things about her and her mother. She sighed in her heart, when will this kind of life end?

Sure enough, Liang Guangchuan said to her in a serious tone with a sullen face: "From now on, you should stay at home and don't go anywhere." Liang Sumei understood immediately when she heard it. It turned out that he was coming for her. She couldn't help but sneered, "Dad, did you and my grandma misunderstand something? I went to the construction site for work, not what you think."

Liang Guangchuan didn't expect his daughter to dare to talk back. He immediately became furious and shouted, "What misunderstanding did we have? I said you can't go, and you can't go! It's not your turn to speak in this family!" His voice made the whole house buzz.

Liang Sumei felt bitter when she saw her father's unreasonable and rude appearance. Perhaps because of her father, everything she wanted to do in the future would become extremely difficult. She felt like a bird with its wings bound in this family, without even the right to fly. If she had the chance, she would definitely leave. She missed the days at the educated youth camp. Although the house was shabby, she was in charge of everything and lived freely.

"Dad, I can get 15 yuan for this month's work on the construction site, which is enough to buy 100 kilograms of food. Are you going to just watch 15 yuan go down the drain?" Liang Sumei tried to impress Liang Guangchuan with benefits. As a designer and architectural instructor of the study class, she made considerable contributions to the construction of the study class. Yu Haiyang, a down-to-earth cadre, was embarrassed to let her work for nothing, so he promised to pay her 15 yuan according to the standard of workers. Although 15 yuan is not much, it is the result of her labor and the embodiment of her value, so she gladly accepted it.

When Liang Guangchuan heard that he could earn 15 yuan, he couldn't help but feel a little upset. But at that moment, his mind seemed to be awakened by a magical force and became surprisingly sharp. He frowned and raised a scornful smile at the corner of his mouth, "Huh! Who would give you 15 yuan for no reason? I think you must have agreed to something shameful, right?"

These words were like a heavy bomb, exploding in Liang Sumei's mind. She looked at her father in astonishment, with mixed feelings in her heart. This is her biological father, how could he use such thoughts to speculate about his own daughter? Damn, you are sick, if you don't, I will use my crutches to poke you to death.
