“Eloped?”
What a fresh word…
Lin Mumu hadn’t heard this word for a long time.
“Xiulan had nowhere else to go, so I brought her to the store. There’s a lot of space behind your store, so she can just put a bed there and sleep, and she can watch the store for you at night. Don’t worry, sister-in-law, Xiulan and I haven’t shared a room yet, so we won’t mess up your place.” Xiao Du explained hurriedly.
“What’s going on?” Lin Mumu was a little confused by what he said.
“Let me tell you.”
Last night, Liu Yuanyuan wanted to keep watch at the store, but later at around eleven o’clock in the evening, Xiao Du came to knock on the door with his fiancée. The woman with a face full of gauze was Xiao Du’s fiancée, Wang Xiulan.
Seeing their miserable appearance, Liu Yuanyuan who knew that Xiao Du was Yun Ting’s man, let them rest here for a night.
Speaking of which, Wang Xiulan was also unlucky, having a snobbish mother.
After Wang Xiulan graduated from junior high school, she had good grades and could have been admitted to the high school in their county, but that year she lost her father’s protection. Her mother thought that going to school was useless, so she asked her to stay at home to help.
After that, Wang Xiulan’s only hope was to turn 18 quickly so that she could marry Du Qiang, who had been engaged to her since childhood.
Originally, the legal age of marriage in China was 20 years old, but the policy was not tough. In the countryside and many other places, people could get married and get a marriage certificate at the age of 18.
Wang Xiulan finally waited until she was 18 years old, and she became more and more beautiful, but her mother married her to a fat businessman in the county as a second wife.
Her mother only saw the dazzling zeros on the betrothal gift, but could not see her daughter’s tears and pleading.
After that, Wang Xiulan wanted to escape from the marriage, but she failed. After being caught by her mother, she robbed her mobile phone, tied her up and sent her to the fat man’s bed.
Wang Xiulan didn’t want to consummate the marriage with the fat pig, so she cut her beautiful face.
Who knew that the fat guy really didn’t mind, he said: “I can’t see your face, your delicate skin, I have to enjoy it.”
At that time, Wang Xiulan thought that her life was over, but luckily Du Qiang arrived in time, rushed over to beat the fat guy, and took Xiulan back to Yanjing City.
In the concept of country people, parents’ orders were more important than heaven, Du Qiang and Wang Xiulan ran away like this, it was almost like eloping.
“What kind of elopement is this? My family is more backward than your village, we don’t do this anymore.” Liu Yuanyuan comforted them all night. If Liu Yuanyuan hadn’t been there, she really don’t know how these two people would toss about.
“I’m not afraid myself, I’m afraid that if I’m not there often, they will come to find Xiulan secretly.” Xiao Du really didn’t sleep all night. He was injured before, and now his face was still haggard.
“Don’t worry, Xiao Du. Since she’s here, she’s an employee of our store, and no one can take her away. I’m just short of staff here, and if Sister Xiulan doesn’t mind, she can stay and help me.”
“No, Ms. Lin, don’t worry. Manager Liu has already told me about the situation here. I’ll try my best not to embarrass Xiao Du. It’s just my ID card has been confiscated.”
According to the custom in the countryside, one must get married and have a wedding banquet before getting a marriage certificate. Wang Xiulan didn’t get her marriage certificate, but her ID card was also confiscated by her mother.
“Just go get a new one. I’ll call Xiaoqin later and ask her to go with you.”
Lin Mumu thought that An Xiaoqin’s brother was in the police station, so it should be convenient for her to get things done, so she started calling An Xiaoqin without thinking how early it was.
