The parents of the other children in the village were originally content with their current situation. Now, they were also wondering if they should get their children to study in the city as soon as possible.
When everyone saw Sheng Yang, their expressions were strange. The pity in their eyes was hard to hide.
Actually, it was not easy being a daughter of a wealthy family. When one was in that kind of environment, they had no choice.
It didn’t matter what the results were like in the past, but if she failed the college entrance examination, many would probably laugh at the Sheng family and kick them when they were down.

“Dad, Mom, I’m back.” Huang Haoran rushed back.
When he heard that Sheng Yang was back, he immediately bought the earliest train ticket.
Not being able to marry Sheng Yang back then had always been a thorn in his heart.
When Huang Xiangyu saw her brother returning, she did not show much enthusiasm. She knew that she did not have much hope now.
“Let’s go. I’ll accompany you to Grandma Liu’s house.”
After that incident, Huang Haoran had never treated Zhao Lan well, thinking that she was the one who messed up his marriage.
It wasn’t as if their family couldn’t fork out the money. If their family had offered more betrothal gifts back then, they wouldn’t have to go through such trouble now.
They were f*cking short-sighted.
But after hearing his mother’s words, Huang Haoran finally smiled at his mother for the first time in a long time.
At the entrance, Grandma Liu saw that Zhao Lan and Huang Haoran had come together. She did not say anything. She just immediately picked up the broom and waved it vigorously, wishing she could chase them away.
Apart from her, only the Huang family and the matchmaker knew that they wanted to marry Sheng Yang for 5,000 yuan. No one else knew, including Yang Yang.
She felt that this family was too much. If others knew, how badly would they look down on Yangyang and mock her?
Moreover, Yangyang was so young. How could they have such thoughts?!
“Grandma Liu, what do you mean by this?” Zhao Lan put her hands on her hips. “Don’t forget, our Huang family has done you a favor. If it weren’t for us, Sheng Yang wouldn’t still be alive now…”
Huang Haoran lowered his eyes. He only knew that when Sheng Yang got into the car accident more than a year ago. Their family had indeed spent some money to save her.
He thought it was because his mother liked Sheng Yang so much, so there was nothing wrong with his mother saying that.
Grandma Liu was anxious and angry. In the chaos, she stopped using sign language.
At this moment, Zhao Lan suddenly fell to the ground.
“What was that?” Zhao Lan was stunned and could not react in time. She did not see anyone. She looked around in a panic.
After a while, she realized that there was an object emitting a metallic luster not far away. It turned out to be a robot. It had attacked too quickly just now, so she did not see it clearly.
Zhao Lan was in pain from the fall, but she felt that it was a new experience. This was the first time she had seen such advanced technology.
Oh, money was indeed different. It could even make robots beat people up.
Grandma Liu calmed down and started to sign, but Zhao Lan couldn’t understand. Luckily, there was a robot beside her to translate for her. “Zhao Lan, I don’t owe you anything for Yangyang’s car accident back then. Don’t talk about us being indebted to you.”
“Hey, why are you turning your back on me?” Zhao Lan called out. Smack! The robot slapped her, and it was extremely painful. Zhao Lan’s face immediately swelled up. “Is there still justice in this world?”
Grandma Liu continued to speak in sign language…
