Hu Yuhong was suspended just like that.
Her life had suddenly plummeted from heaven to hell, and Hu Yuhong couldn't accept such a change.
She was unwilling, feeling she hadn't done anything wrong.
Although the admission notice she received was not obtained honorably, her family had paid money for it.
Later, she got involved with Xiang Ying because Xiang Ying liked her and pursued her relentlessly.
In any case, Xiang Ying and that foolish woman Hu Xiaolian didn't have a marriage certificate. Since their marriage wasn't legally recognized, why should she be concerned?
Hu Yuhong, deciding to go all the way, went to the education department to appeal, believing the school's handling of her case was unfair.
The education department naturally knew that the higher authorities intended to investigate the matter thoroughly, and Hu Yuhong had no chance of redemption.
After deliberation, the education department concluded that such a teacher was unfit to be a role model.
When Hu Yuhong heard that the education bureau intended to expel her and also make her pay one thousand yuan to that foolish woman Hu Xiaolian, she was beside herself.
Hu Yuhong was naturally unwilling to part with the thousand yuan. She hadn't spent a single cent of her salary; it was all saved. Xiang Ying's salary and the money she had taken from the factory were also in her hands.
After spending on food, drinks, clothes, and jewelry, there was still quite a bit left, but Hu Yuhong didn't want to hand it over.
Xiang Ying had already been arrested, and she had lost her job. This money was her only reliance.
However, the education department not only intervened personally but also requested the assistance of the public security organs in handling the matter.
Fearing legal repercussions, Hu Yuhong reluctantly handed over one thousand yuan to Hu Xiaolian.
Naturally, she felt very wronged and couldn't help but provoke Hu Xiaolian while giving her the money.
Hu Yuhong said triumphantly to Hu Xiaolian that she was a unwanted, haggard woman, a hen that couldn't lay sons, and so on.
"Hu Xianghong, you did such a shameless thing, and you still have the nerve to curse me here? Yes, I am a hen that can't lay sons. I hope you give birth to a son for Xiang Ying soon and become a hen that can lay sons!"
Hu Xiaolian was still eloquent at this moment, not holding back her curses at all.
This left Hu Yuhong, who had considered herself superior, in an awkward position.
"You, you... Hu Xiaolian, I know you think I ruined your family, but why don't you consider that I might also be a victim?"
Seeing the growing crowd and thinking about being gossiped about, Hu Yuhong put on a wronged expression and complained.
"You're a victim? How is that possible?" Someone nearby, who had heard about the matter, scoffed.
"I didn't know Xiang Ying had a wife and daughter. If I had known, I would never have married him!" Hu Yuhong said, playing the victim.
However, such words needed someone to believe them.
"You didn't know? I remember you even attended the wedding banquet when Xiang Ying and I got married that year!" Hu Xiaolian said this one sentence and then left.
Naturally, those who knew the inside story began to enlighten those around them.
The town was not large; Hu Yuhong's home was only a five-minute walk from Xiang Ying's home.
They were all familiar with each other; it was impossible not to know that Xiang Ying had a wife and daughter.
Many people firmly believed that Hu Yuhong, knowing full well that Xiang Ying had a wife and children, was still willing to be his concubine.
Although Hu Yuhong had a marriage certificate, in this situation, many still firmly believed that Hu Xiaolian, who entered the marriage first, was the main wife, and Hu Yuhong, who entered later, was the concubine.
From then on, Hu Yuhong's reputation in Licheng was ruined.
As for Hu Xiaolian, she was indeed a decisive person. Since she had decided to fall out completely, she had no intention of living peacefully afterward.
After the commotion, she returned to Xiang Ying's home, packed her belongings, and was about to leave the Xiang family with her daughter.
As Hu Xiaolian was leaving, Xiang Ying's mother caused a scene, hurling all sorts of insults at Hu Xiaolian.
She was almost poking her finger at Hu Xiaolian's face.
Knowing that Hu Yuhong had even lost her job, Hu Yuhong's maternal family also came forward to curse Hu Xiaolian.
They all blamed Hu Xiaolian, even saying that Hu Xiaolian, unable to live a good life herself, didn't want others to live well.
Hu Xiaolian, listening to these shameless words, was almost amused to the point of tears.
She had seen so many people in her life, yet she never knew people could be so shameless.
Hu Xiaolian did not act aggressively towards Xiang Ying's mother, as she was an elder. If she had resorted to force, people might have pointed fingers.
However, towards Hu Yuhong's family who had come to her doorstep, Hu Xiaolian was not polite at all; she grabbed a big stick and gave them a good beating.
Just beating them wasn't enough; Hu Xiaolian thoroughly cursed Hu Yuhong's family.
"It's only families like yours that give their daughters to others as concubines. Do you still have the face to curse people?"
"Why don't you think about whether you'll still have this old face in the future? Aren't you afraid that when you go out, people will stab you in the back?"
"If I were you, I'd hurry up and find a rock to smash myself to death, so you wouldn't come here to disgust me?"
"In the old society, families like yours wouldn't even be considered proper relatives. I could have people beat you out with sticks!"
Concubines were treated as commodities, and a concubine's maternal family was not considered proper relatives, which was why Hu Xiaolian said this.
The surrounding people understood Hu Xiaolian's words and burst into laughter.
Hu mother wanted to say something else, but she was so provoked by the surrounding people that she couldn't utter a word.
They were all neighbors; who didn't know whom? If they said they didn't know Xiang Ying had a wife and children, the people around them would have slapped them with their big mouths!
Hu Xiaolian had also vented all her grievances from the past years.
She didn't find anyone to beat Hu mother out with sticks, but she herself took a large broom and chased Hu mother all the way.
Then she left with her two daughters, and after that, no one knew where she went.
Her parents and brother and sister-in-law were also looking for her.
After hearing all this, Su Xiaotian wondered if Hu Xiaolian had gone to find Duan Hongyuan.
After hanging up the phone, Su Xiaotian immediately called Duan Hongyuan.
When the call went through, Duan Hongyuan said that Hu Xiaolian had not contacted him.
Su Xiaotian then knew that Hu Xiaolian was concerned about her reputation.
She was unwilling to trouble others, but it was difficult for a woman with two children to even find a job.
After all, the children were young; which employer would hire someone with children? Su Dan Novel Network.
However, thinking that she had one thousand yuan, although not much, it could temporarily ensure that the mother and her two children had enough to eat and stay warm. Moreover, Su Xiaotian felt that Hu Xiaolian was not someone without foresight.
Since she had decided to leave and had not gone to her maternal home for support, she must have had her own plans.
Perhaps, Hu Xiaolian had taken to heart her words about a phoenix's rebirth.
This woman intended to let go of all past events and start a new life.
After thinking for a while, Su Xiaotian let the matter go.
If she really couldn't make ends meet, Su Xiaotian believed that Hu Xiaolian would still seek help.
