The day of rebirth and elopement: caught by the military officer husband
Chapter 56 Being Called a Country Bum
Lin Xiaoxue kept sneezing and didn't know who was talking about her.
As soon as she got home, she saw steaming hot meals on the table.
This time I have food to eat, I am so happy.
After dinner, she prepared to go check on the progress of the factory. When she passed by the workshop, she saw someone swearing.
She was a middle-aged woman who was well-dressed and looked quite urban. She wore a loose dark blue cotton dress and her hair was neatly combed and tied behind her head. She gave people an impression of being stern yet shrewd and capable.
She was wearing black leather shoes and walking back and forth in front of the workshop door, as if every step she took was filled with disdain and anger towards He Mu.
"How dare you date my Yueru?" Her sharp voice pierced the air around them. "We are city people! Our Yueru will naturally look for someone of similar status, definitely not a farmer like you."
He Mu stood at the door of the workshop, and the scene in front of him made him feel a little helpless.
He knew that Li Yueru came from an intellectual family and was not born and raised in the countryside like himself.
But how can love change because of one’s background?
They met, got to know each other, and fell in love, and have planted deep roots in each other's hearts.
"Auntie, please listen to me." He Mu tried to explain, "Yue Ru and I really like each other. Please rest assured that the betrothal gift can be given according to the town's standards..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the middle-aged woman: "If I see you looking for my daughter again, I will never forgive you!"
She waved her arms as if to drive away something disgusting. "Don't you understand? Are you still pestering me? Let me tell you! It's not about the gift! We will never marry our daughter to a country boy!"
He Mu's face turned pale, and he seemed unable to refute the middle-aged woman's anger and prejudice.
"Auntie..." he murmured softly, "The three major items will also be ready."
But the mother just frowned: "Don't mention it again! It's useless!"
Lin Xiaoxue stood at the door of the workshop and listened for a long time before she gradually understood the ins and outs of the quarrel.
It turned out to be the girl that He Mu was pursuing, Li Yueru's mother.
"This is really new." Lin Xiaoxue thought, He Mu and that girl have only just started dating not long ago, right?
She remembered that He Mu once shared with her the sweet story of how he and Li Yueru met and fell in love with each other with a cheerful face.
It is really sad that he is now so ruthlessly rejected by the other party's mother just because of his rural origin.
Lin Xiaoxue looked at the boy in front of her.
He has a handsome appearance and a healthy complexion. He gets up early and works late every day. He can do both physical and technical work in the workshop very well.
More importantly, he always faces every challenge in life with a positive and optimistic attitude.
"How can such a good boy not be worthy of your family?" Lin Xiaoxue immediately retorted: "Auntie looks like an intellectual, but why are your thoughts still so old-fashioned?"
She knew that He Mu was smart and earned the highest salary every month in the workshop.
As long as you work hard to save money, after a year or two, not only will the bride price not be a problem, but buying a house in town will also be no problem.
However, the mother from the town could not see the hard work and honesty shining in He Mu at all.
She was only concerned with emphasizing differences in background.
"Who do you think you are? What right do you have to teach me a lesson?" The woman couldn't help but curse when she saw Lin Xiaoxue coming.
"Auntie, hello, I'm the boss of this workshop." Lin Xiaoxue sighed: "Auntie, don't look down on the poor young man, He Mu is very capable and will never let your daughter suffer."
However, just as he finished speaking, that sharp and discriminatory voice came into his ears again: "How could our Yueru marry a countryman!"
These words were like a needle that pierced Lin Xiaoxue's long-calm heart.
"What's wrong with rural people?" Lin Xiaoxue couldn't help but fight back: "If you have the guts, don't eat rice! Don't wear clothes! Food and cotton are grown by us farmers to supply the city. Without our hard work in exchange for rice and cotton, how could you city people live comfortably?"
Although the crowd was shocked by Lin Xiaoxue's sudden statement and ridiculed the middle-aged woman, no one denied the truth contained in it.
"you……"
Lin Xiaoxue's eyes were like torches, and she said word by word, "Auntie, believe it or not, if your daughter breaks up with He Mu, there will be a lot of girls lining up to marry him right after."
Her words were firm and powerful, causing the onlookers to nod involuntarily.
The middle-aged woman's face turned pale, "It's other people's business if they want to get married! Anyway, my Yue Ru doesn't like you!"
The voice was full of stubbornness and discrimination.
Lin Xiaoxue chuckled, "It's a new era now, men and women are free to fall in love. It's not up to you to decide whether you like her or not."
She paused. "Besides, it's hard to find this guy even with a lantern. Isn't there anyone from the countryside among your ancestors three generations ago?"
The middle-aged woman was furious but speechless, and the people present began to whisper.
Seeing that she was losing the debate, she had to change the subject: "Humph! If you keep pestering my daughter, I will scold you every time I see you."
He Mu stood up at this time and said calmly: "Auntie, I am willing to work hard to make money and buy a house in town to settle down. Please give me a chance."
However, the woman had been forced into a desperate situation. "Anyway, our Yue Ru will never marry you, so just give up on this idea!"
After saying this, he left angrily.
After returning home, Li's mother stared at Li Yueru and said angrily, "If I hadn't seen you two talking and laughing as you went to the cinema, I wouldn't have known that you were dating someone. How long did you plan to keep it a secret from me?"
There was blame and warning in his tone.
Li Yueru did not back down: "Mom, dating is my own business, and there is no need for me to explain every little thing to you."
Although his attitude was gentle, it also revealed a certain firmness.
Mother Li's eyes revealed determination: "You are my daughter, I must take care of you! You are not allowed to have anything to do with He Mu anymore!"
Her voice was sonorous and powerful, as if drawing an insurmountable line.
Li Yueru frowned, feeling rebellious and angry.
She raised her head and looked directly at her mother, "Mom, you really don't understand. I'm too lazy to tell you."
As soon as she finished speaking, she turned around and walked towards the room angrily.
The door slammed shut, isolating the two from their own worlds.
Back in her room, Li Yueru leaned against the door and took a deep breath.
She already knew what she was thinking in her heart: she just liked He Mu. In her opinion, he was better and more reliable than any other man.
"Even if the whole world is against it..." she whispered to herself, "I will marry him."
