Chapter 2174 Women Have No Status Compared to Animals
Ding Chunlan's father failed to survive a month in prison, and died of illness in prison without even waiting for a trial. Ding's mother called Ding Chunlan to go back to the funeral.
"It's ridiculous. I still have the face to ask me to go back. I refused, saying that I will never jump into the house again."
This weekend, Ding Chunlan came over to find Tang Xiaonan for afternoon tea. Xu Jinfeng was also at home. She just came yesterday and came back suddenly. After returning, Xu Jinfeng said that he missed the children, but Tang Xiaonan guessed that there must be something hidden.
It was probably because of a quarrel with her father. The older the couple became, the more tempered they became. They couldn't stop thinking about each other, living together and arguing, just like children.
"Your mother is real, are you born to your mother?" Tang Xiaonan asked curiously.
No matter how I looked at it, I felt that what the Ding family's parents did was not like their own. Otherwise, how could they be so cruel?
Ding Chunlan sneered, "I hope it's not my own, but it happens to be their biological parents."
"They are really cruel." Tang Xiaonan sighed.
It is really incomprehensible for such parents, which has never been heard before.
Xu Jinfeng didn't know about it yet, so Tang Xiaonan told her, which shocked her a lot, and she kept chanting 'Amitabha Buddha'.
"Bodhisattva bless you, I came back safe and sound. It doesn't matter if such parents don't recognize you, Chunlan, don't go back to your hometown, and settle down in Songcheng from now on." Xu Jinfeng comforted.
Ding Chunlan nodded, "I won't go back. In fact, I don't feel uncomfortable. This kind of thing is very common in our place. In our place, women are like animals. They can be beaten and scolded at will, even if they are beaten to death, no one cares. , Husbands beat their wives, fathers beat their daughters, everywhere."
"Is it still like this now?" Tang Xiaonan frowned, feeling uncomfortable.
Ding Chunlan smiled wryly and nodded, "Yes, it's still the case. You may not believe it if you tell it. Our place is so ignorant. Like my father's case this time, the whole village pleaded for my father, saying that he did not commit a crime. It is natural for a father to teach his daughter a lesson, and the law has nothing to do with it. In their ignorant consciousness, this is a very normal thing, and I am the one who is rebellious."
"It's too stupid, don't your daughters rarely go to school?" Tang Xiaonan asked.
"There are very few of them. They only go to school for one or two years. Some of them don't go to school for a day. The government doesn't care about it, and they don't engage in family planning. Many have four or five children. Their daughters are sold when they are fourteen or five years old. In exchange for a bride price, we build a house for our son to marry a wife, and the biggest role of our daughter is to work like an animal, and sell it for money when they are old."
Ding Chunlan smiled self-deprecatingly, "At the beginning, I was almost sold out. Fortunately, I fought to the death and met my mentor. He paid for my education and found the local government. I was able to read it, but So far, I have only one daughter out of our village, and none of the other women have come out, married early and had children, and several girls who grew up with me have died."
"They are about the same age as you. They are in their early forties and they are in their prime. How could they die?" Tang Xiaonan felt incredible. Is the average life expectancy over there so low?
Ding Chunlan looked distressed, and sighed: "I checked about it in the past two days. One was beaten to death by her husband, one died of dystocia, and the other died of drinking pesticides because she couldn't bear the abuse by her husband and mother-in-law. These three grew up with me and all died."
