"Grandma! Ye Congxin!..."

The mobile phone was spinning on the ground, and Chen Qiutang's electrified voice was still faintly wafting from it.Ye Congxin sat paralyzed on the ground, her legs were so weak that she couldn't stand up at all.Looking at the menacing people outside the security door, her mind went blank.

Before dawn, Ding Xiang went out early in the morning to buy breakfast, and Ye Congxin was still sleeping soundly on the bed.She was woken up by the doorbell banging on the door. Fortunately, she did not forget the habit of opening the small window on the door to take a look before opening the door.

Standing outside the door were two strangers with unfriendly expressions.One was a slightly bloated aunt, holding a traditional big broom in her hand, glaring at Ye Congxin through the wire mesh window.The other stood behind her, an old man with dark skin and gray hair.

Ye Congxin panicked for no reason, and while about to close the small window on the door, said tremblingly: "You have found the wrong door."

"Bang Dang", the aunt swept it and hit the door: "Bitch, open the door! Where's Lilac? Let her out!"

Ye Congxin sat down on the ground.She happened to be holding the mobile phone, and the remaining rationality drove her to broadcast the number of the emergency contact "1", but the moment she pressed the dial button, she was frightened by the aunt's voice again, and the mobile phone slipped to the ground .

In the dim light of day, hard-working office workers passed by and went downstairs quickly, not daring to raise their heads.

"Lilac is not here." The uncle said in a low voice.

"We'll wait if we're not here, she can't come back!" The aunt stared at Ye Congxin through the prison-like barbed wire, "This girl is not a good thing. Open the door!"

The sound of slamming the door shook Ye Congxin's buttocks, and the floor trembled slightly.Ye Congxin stared blankly at the two people outside the door. No matter what fierce moves they made or how they smashed the door, she would act like a fool and would not respond.The uncle stopped the aunt and said, isn't this a fool?Auntie is obviously shrewd, and she can tell that this person is pretending to be stupid at most. It must be because he did something disgusting not once or twice. To deal with this situation, it's bluffing!

Ye Congxin felt dizzy and tinnitus.The faces of the two were gradually blurred in the field of vision. She sat on the ground and looked up. This childlike perspective suddenly seemed like a big hand pulling behind her, pulling her from reality into the time tunnel. .She saw the people outside the door turned into grandparents whom she hadn't seen for many years, but whose faces were still vivid in the depths of her memory.There was one more person at the door——Chen Nian.

This was the scene more than 20 years ago. Ye Congxin, who was not very sensible at the time, didn't know why the always respected associate professor's mother was scolded bloody by her grandparents, but she didn't speak back.Grandma slapped mom, but mom didn't fight back.She heard them pointing at her nose and calling her "perverted hooligan" and "liar", and Aunt Mo's name appeared in the words.She heard her mother repeating a sentence feebly: "You have children, what else do you want?"

The young Ye Congxin walked timidly to the barbed wire netting and looked at her mother, who wanted to open the door.Her mother suddenly yelled at her: "Don't open the door! Go back to the room!" She saw her mother's face was red and swollen from the slap, but she stood obediently inside the door.

Ye Congxin heard someone calling her "Leaf".She suddenly came back to her senses, the world turned into a realistic color, but it was still unfriendly, full of disharmonious quarrels.The neighbor's grandmother pushed the door open a crack, wanting to come out to stop it, but she retreated helplessly after all.

Ding Xiang came back at some point, and it was her who called her name just now.She was pulled by the sleeves and neckline by the aunt, and the hot soybean milk she was carrying spilled out of the thermos, staining her clothes.Like Chen Nian back then, Ding Xiang was slapped on the face by the aunt, but she didn't cry, and she didn't look scared.

With a powerless expression that seemed to be printed on the same mold as Chen Nian, she said to Ye Congxin: "Ye Zi, don't open the door."

Ye Congxin nodded subconsciously, and then realized that she hadn't made any progress in the past 20 years.

The uncle seemed to have a kind heart, and said in a deep voice: "Don't make things big, let's go into the room and explain things clearly."

"Is it because I don't want to go in? That bitch won't open the door!" The aunt pointed at Ye Congxin and yelled, "Besides, everyone is here. Look at her, she is the person in the photo!"

Ding Xiang begged in a quiet voice, "Can I go with you? If you want an explanation or compensation, I'll give it to you." She blocked the door with her body, blocking Ye Congxin's field of vision with her whole body. Dwelling the light, it also covers all the malice from the outside world.She remembered that Chen Nian leaned against the door in the same way back then, to prevent the too curious self from seeing the vicious world outside. At that time, Chen Nian said: "Don't be here, you will scare the child."

Ding Xiang also choked up and said, "Please, don't talk about it here. She has a heart attack!"

Ye Congxin burst into tears, she never wanted to shrink in the door like she did more than 20 years ago.

The moment the anti-theft door opened, she saw Ding Xiang turn around with a look of despair in her eyes, and then she heard the aunt laughing and saying, "Heart attack? She's mistress, she deserves her death!"

Ye Congxin was dumbfounded.

She thought just now that this was just the aftereffect of Ding Xiang's insufficient coming out of the closet. She was not afraid of this aftereffect, and she could get through it together with Ding Xiang.

When the aunt pushed Ding Xiang to enter the door, she slapped Ye Congxin across the face.It's really hot. She is so delicate. No one has ever treated her like this. Everyone is afraid that she will be bumped into a fragile product, but this person wants her to be broken.Except for the heat, Ye Congxin didn't feel much pain.She was just thinking, Xiaosan?Whose mistress?

She didn't stand still, fell to the side, hit the corner of the shoe cabinet with her stomach, and felt pain all over her body.She sat on the ground leaning on the shoe cabinet, and the phone finally fell apart in the chaos.Her vision was a little blurry, and the noise in her ears seemed to be separated by a layer. She remembered that she hadn't eaten breakfast yet, and it was probably due to hypoglycemia again.

Ding Xiang stood in front of her all the time, and then even knelt down with a plop.Big Mom finally calmed down and pulled up a chair to sit in front of them.The uncle sighed, "Ding Xiang, we watched you grow up and loved you so much all the time, and we didn't want to treat you like this! We didn't force you to marry Lu Nan, did we? If you don't marry, you can play whatever you want No one cares about you, you are now our family's daughter-in-law, and you did... such a disgusting thing! Our family owes you or something!"

Ye Congxin understood immediately.But there seemed to be more things she didn't understand.

Ding Xiang said, "I didn't marry him."

Ye Congxin had another glimmer of hope.

"Then explain this!" The aunt threw out a dozen things.The top ones are a few photos, which are sneak shots of Ye Congxin and Ding Xiang kissing in Rosalind, which happened within a month after Ding Xiang came back.Under the photo, there is a small red notebook buried.Ding Xiang quickly reached out to pick it up, but Ye Congxin grabbed it first.

People's Republic of China marriage certificate.

The red background, the two happily smiling, each became more energetic after the photo was edited, and even looked like a couple.

Ye Congxin stared at the wedding photo for a long time, then closed the marriage certificate, and threw it back to the ground with trembling hands.Ding Xiang supported her shoulders with both hands, fear in her eyes, "Wait a minute, I'll explain it to you right away!"

Ye Congxin just looked at her hands left and right and sighed.She would believe everything she heard now, but believing nothing made sense.She's just tired.

Her low blood sugar was a constant test of her willpower, wanting to sleep and pass out without losing face.She stood upright, and saw Lu Nan rushing into her house, he mixed Lilac from the ground but didn't have time to talk to herself.Followed by Chen Qiutang who received the call, and Du Ling who accompanied her.Chen Qiutang directly rushed towards Ye Congxin, which made her feel that someone still cared about her.

The house suddenly became so lively.

She watched Chen Qiutang approaching, her delicate eyes were still filled with tears, and her face was full of panic.The child raised his hand to the side of her face, but tremblingly dared not touch it.Ye Congxin knew the reason, she was too delicate, the slap by Lu Nan's mother must have made her face red and swollen, she looked horrible.She saw Chen Qiutang clenched her fists, her eyes were on fire, and she stood up abruptly.

"Don't." Ye Congxin grabbed Chen Qiutang's hand.She shook her hand resentfully, but Ye Congxin seemed to be stuck to her and couldn't shake her off.Chen Qiutang looked back at her, and tears immediately fell.

Du Ling said, "Don't do anything, I'll do it."

Du Ling flicked his ponytail, stood in front of Lu Nan, and said, "Your parents beat Chen Qiutang's aunt, but she is innocent. You have no reason to beat her. I don't beat old people." Swipe upwards, with a loud and crisp sound, leaving a bright palm print on Lu Nan's face.

"You!" Lu Nan's mother picked up the broom and was about to beat her, but Du Ling deftly dodged, and the broom was suddenly caught again, unable to move anymore.

It was Lu Nan who grabbed the broom.He grabbed the broom and threw it on the ground, shouting: "Stop making trouble!"

……

Lu Nan's parents were persuaded away by him, and he assured them that he could solve the mess.But after closing the anti-theft door, it was just a few people facing each other in embarrassment.Ye Congxin sat on the sofa, her hand was tightly held by Chen Qiutang, she never looked at Ding Xiang again, and she couldn't see any anger, as if she was thinking about something calmly.

Ding Xiang and Lu Nan explained to her.
