Chapter 106 Regaining Life
After her parents left with her younger brother, Liang Xiaoxia finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She held a pair of hearing aids in her hands. They didn't look very big, with small ear-shaped parts, and they seemed quite ordinary.

Can they really cure her ear?
In the end, Liang Xiaoxia held onto hope and carefully put on the hearing aids.

The Liang family also discovered that Liang Xiaoxia had put on the so-called hearing aid.

What is a hearing aid, if not something that helps you hear sounds?
They tried to talk to Liang Xiaoxia, but she was the same as before; unless they shouted loudly, they couldn't hear her at all.

"Ha, it's just a useless piece of trash. I got scammed out of 1000 yuan for nothing."

On the first day she wore it, Liang Xiaoxia really didn't feel any change.

She was a little disappointed, but she comforted herself that it was only the first day and things would probably get better later.

Liang Xiaoxia was right after all.

When she woke up early the next day, she discovered that although she still couldn't hear soft sounds, she could hear louder ones.

She had never heard any of these things before.

and so……

Is her hearing gradually getting better?
Liang Xiaoxia gave herself a positive answer.

Liang Xiaoxia was very happy and excited, but she didn't tell anyone, not even her family.

She always felt that although they were family, they probably didn't want her to become better.

Although this way of thinking is wrong, it is very possible that Liang Xiaoxia did it.

So Liang Xiaoxia kept the fact that her ears were recovering a secret.

Time just passed by day by day.

Every day when Liang Xiaoxia woke up, she was surprised to find that her hearing was gradually improving.

The agreed-upon last day arrived quickly.

That noon, after the family of four finished lunch, Liang Xiaoxia was clearing away the dishes while her father, mother, and son, Liang Xiaohao, were talking with their backs to her.

As for why they were facing away from her, it was naturally because Liang Xiaoxia could read lips, and they didn't want her to know what they were talking about.

As for the sound...

It didn't matter; Liang Xiaoxia couldn't even hear them talking normally, let alone now that they were lowering their voices.

"Mom and Dad, today is the last day. We must get Xiaoxia to agree to marry the second son of the Wu family."

"Don't worry, Mom will go pick it up later."

What if she disagrees?

“A month has passed. Even if you don’t agree, you have to agree,” said Mr. Liang, smoking a cigarette.

"Yes, we absolutely have to get that 200,000, or your grandson will be gone."

"Huh? What's going on?"

"It was Rou Rou's parents who gave her an ultimatum. Rou Rou is almost three months pregnant. They said she must come up with a dowry of 200,000 yuan and a car within a week, or they would definitely not wait any longer and would take Rou Rou to the hospital."

As for why they went to the hospital, it goes without saying that they were there to have surgery to remove the child.

"Mom and Dad, that's your first grandson."

"Mom knows, Mom will definitely help you."

"I'm afraid my sister won't agree."

“If she doesn’t agree, I’ll tie her up and force her to marry into the Wu family,” Liang’s father said with a stern face. “Actually, I already agreed to the Wu family yesterday.”

Suddenly, a loud thud came from the dishes on the other side of the table. The three members of the Liang family were startled and all looked in Liang Xiaoxia's direction.

Liang Xiaoxia was seen tidying up the dishes with her head down, then carrying them towards the kitchen, seemingly oblivious to their conversation.

That's true, Liang Xiaoxia is deaf, so she definitely can't hear what they're saying right now.

"Honey, you've agreed?"

"The Wu family has been urging us several times already. Anyway, whether we agree sooner or later, we have to agree. There's no harm in agreeing sooner." Mother Liang: "Alright, alright."

Liang Xiaohao was overjoyed, as if he could already see the 200,000 yuan in his hands. "Mom and Dad, thank you. Don't worry, after we marry Rou Rou, my husband and I will definitely take good care of you."

Over here, the three of them were all very happy because they had decided to marry Liang Xiaoxia into the Wu family.

In the kitchen on the other side, Liang Xiaoxia was already in tears.

They didn't know that Liang Xiaoxia's hearing had returned, nor did they know that she had heard everything they had just said.

It turns out that her parents never gave her a choice.

They had already decided to marry her off to the Wu family.

The reason I agreed to this month was that I hoped to use a month to slowly work things out with her until she willingly agreed to marry into the family.

Liang Xiaoxia thought that if her hearing did not recover, she might really be as her parents thought.

It's clear that her parents understand her.

But what they didn't know was that her ears had healed and her hearing had returned.

That was a bet Liang Xiaoxia made with herself a month ago.

And now, she's won her gamble.

Therefore, she certainly wouldn't stay and let them do as they pleased.

Liang Xiaoxia wiped away her tears and began planning her escape from this home.

After Liang Xiaoxia finished washing the dishes, her mother came in.

The gist is this: a month has passed, and the question is, how is Liang Xiaoxia considering marrying into the Wu family?
“I agree,” Liang Xiaoxia said.

When Liang Xiaoxia agreed, Liang's mother, who thought she would have to persuade her again, was overjoyed.

"Xiaoxia, Mom knew you were the most considerate and kindest."

"Don't worry, your life will get better after you marry into the Wu family."

After saying that, Liang's mother turned around happily to tell her husband and son the good news.

Liang Xiaoxia watched her retreating figure, her eyes filled with indifference.

The reason I agreed was that I wanted to appease them first and then win my freedom.

Liang Xiaoxia thought that if she revealed that her ear had recovered and expressed her unwillingness to marry into the Wu family, she would probably be locked up and then, just like her father had said, forced to marry into the Wu family.

Therefore, it's better to pretend to agree.

They probably never imagined that their daughter, whom they had always obeyed, exploited, and manipulated, would choose to run away.

That's right, Liang Xiaoxia planned to use her remaining money to buy a train ticket to a distant city and escape from this home.

For a 19-year-old girl like her, living in a distant, unfamiliar city must have been incredibly difficult.

But no matter how difficult it is, nothing is more difficult than being in this family or marrying into the Wu family.

Even if she went to a strange, distant city and lived a worse life than she does now, she would not regret it.

She no longer wanted to be bound by family ties or manipulated by others.

Liang Xiaoxia agreed, and soon both families began preparations.

The wedding is scheduled for four days from now, and the dowry of 4 yuan will be delivered at that time.

These past few days, Liang Xiaoxia has been very cooperative, doing whatever she was supposed to do.

On the night of the third day, when all was quiet, Liang Xiaoxia pretended to get up to go to the toilet, picked up her backpack, and left home.

She quickly got into a taxi and arrived at the train station.

As the train pulled away in the early morning, Liang Xiaoxia looked out the window, her eyes filled with light, as if she had been reborn overnight.
