Chapter 608 Sense of Accomplishment (2)
"Sister-in-law, don't you really want to invite a lion dancer or something tomorrow?" Bai Yichen asked, still unwilling to give up on his lion dance.
"No!" Ji Xiaou looked at the girls. They shook their heads desperately, so Ji Xiaou refused.
Bai Yichen bowed his head in disappointment, and everyone couldn't bear it. Wu Xiaoxiao almost softened her heart and wanted to agree.
When Ji Xiaowu got on the carriage and returned home, she had just rested for a while when she heard urgent knocks on the door and calls from outside. "Oh no, sister-in-law, something happened..."
Ji Xiaomu and Fang Chen hurried out to open the door. Wu Xiaoxiao was sweating profusely. "What's wrong? What happened? Don't worry, tell me slowly."
"It's not me who's in trouble, it's the girl we invited who's in trouble." Wu Xiaoxiao took two breaths and answered, "Guo'er's parents suddenly came to the embroidery workshop and wanted to take Guo'er back home. They said they had arranged a marriage for her and they wanted Guo'er to get married. Guo'er refused and is now making a scene in the embroidery workshop!"
"Let's go!" Ji Xiaou and Fang Chen looked at each other, frowned, and hurried to the embroidery workshop.
It is called an embroidery workshop, but in fact it is just an old uninhabited house that has been renovated into an embroidery workshop for young girls. They embroider here on weekdays and no one will disturb them.
"Sister-in-law, Guoguo took the initiative to find us and was willing to join us. She wanted to be an embroiderer and was not afraid of hard work. She studied embroidery very seriously. In the beginning, her hands were often covered with bloody holes. She was very hardworking." On the way there, Wu Xiaoxiao told Ji Xiaomu about the girl.
After listening to this, Ji Xiaomu felt that this girl was indeed a smart and independent-minded girl.
When Ji Xiaou and others arrived at the embroidery workshop, a sharp and piercing female voice was heard from inside, insulting Guo'er.
"Wang Guoer, you must go back with me today. I have already accepted the betrothal gift, and they will come to pick you up tomorrow." When Ji Xiaomu arrived, the girl called Guoer was protected by Long Shiyu and others, while Wang Guoer's parents were constantly lobbying.
"I don't want to get married. I want to learn embroidery here and become an embroiderer!" Wang Guoer replied.
"Mom, I can also make money here and give it to my brother so that he can get married. Can you please not marry me off?" Wang Guoer pleaded to her parents.
Seeing that she would not listen to the nice words, Wang Guoer's mother's words became more and more unpleasant. "You are a money-loser. I gave birth to you and raised you up, and even found you such a good in-law. What else do you want? Women are born to marry and have children. You will get married sooner or later. They have given you fifty taels now! How long do you have to embroider to give me fifty taels?"
"Mom! Am I worth only fifty taels? I am also your daughter, why do you insist on forcing me to get married? I won't marry, you can marry someone else, but I will never marry that pockmarked man! He is old enough to be my father!" Wang Guoer said sadly.
"You, a money-loser, dare to talk back to me? I shouldn't have given birth to you in the first place. I should have just thrown you into the river and drowned you!" Wang Guoer's mother was extremely angry. No matter how she coaxed Wang Guoer, she just refused to go home with them.
Wang Guoer's father stood by and smoked non-stop, in silence.
"Guo'er, don't agree to go home. They just want to sell you!" The girls all held Wang Guo'er's hands, fearing that she would be upset and agree to go home with her parents.
"I know!" Wang Guoer nodded, but Wang Guoer's mother was angry.
"You bunch of losers, what are you saying to my daughter? It's you guys who taught her bad things. My daughter used to be so obedient, when did she become like this, actually disobeying me in everything! Guo'er, I'll say it one last time, pack up your things and come home with me!"
