CHAPTER 36: CHAPTER 36: WHAT ARE YOU PLAYING AT?

Jiao Sini shouted loudly, "Now that the shameless one finally stands tall, if it weren’t for the girl’s kindness, you’d have been parading a broken shoe through the streets ages ago. What a disgrace!"

"That’s right, Yao Hui is really too much. She doesn’t count on others, but she insists. She’s bullying the one who comes from the countryside, who has no support and no backing. What kind of thing did the Yao Family teach?"

"That’s correct, haven’t you noticed that the Yao family’s dead old woman is silent now? Maybe it’s a play concocted by the mother and daughter, the old one being no good, and the young one even more shameless."

No one but Er Dan’s mother, Feng Qiaoniang, dared to curse like this, but people couldn’t curse, so they could follow along.

For a moment, Mrs. Yao was so infuriated she nearly fainted.

Yu Xinyan didn’t want to waste time with them here, she bowed to the crowd standing up for her, "Thank you all for speaking up for justice. Since I and Lyu Juncheng are breaking off, the dowry should be returned.

Though due to their selfish and inconsiderate actions, they caused me significant harm, even almost turning me into a second bride because of them; but forced relationships aren’t sweet, and I don’t want to be tied to a man like Lyu Juncheng anymore, one who is sweet-talking but scheming and deceitful."

"So since we are breaking off, let’s make it clear. The two hundred bucks, I will find a way to return it as soon as possible, but I need time. I ask everyone present to witness this."

Jiao Sini, feeling sorry for Yu Xinyan who was being cornered, remembered if it hadn’t been for this girl, her son would be truly in trouble, and impulsively shouted, "Miss, having bad luck encountering this situation, don’t worry, it’s just two hundred bucks, I’ll find a way to borrow it for you."

Everyone watching looked towards Jiao Sini, those familiar with her joked, "Sister Wu, what are you playing at?"

Jiao Sini didn’t hide it, "You don’t know, my son Wensheng was playing yesterday, and fell into Yuquan River. If it weren’t for this girl risking her life to go into the water to rescue him, my son would have lost his life."

This matter was indeed known by quite a few people, "Ah, the one going into the water to save someone yesterday was this girl? Truly admirable, but just unlucky to be caught in such unfortunate things."

In the yard, Zhang Meilian originally planned to find time to thank the girl after the matter was settled, didn’t expect Wu Family recognized her. There was no need to pretend; she enthusiastically grabbed Yu Xinyan’s hand, "Sister Wu is right, we can’t ignore this."

Yu Xinyan looked puzzledly at Zhang Meilian holding her hand, thinking: What’s going on, could it be comrades from the union who feel sorry for her and want to help?

Zhang Meilian saw her bewildered, smiled, and said, "The other one you saved yesterday was my son, named Zhao Jianjun, I planned to ask about the benefactor in return, didn’t expect to meet now.

Since you said you don’t want any more entanglements, we’ll help you gather the money. It makes no difference if you pay us back when you have it later."

Yu Xinyan didn’t expect such good news, was moved, actually she almost forgot about yesterday’s event.

Of course, she knew these two people; they were famous talents in the factory, but she really didn’t have any impression of their children.

Just then, someone in the crowd spoke up, "Miss, I have a caregiving job, would you consider it?"
