Du Wanchun heard the sound and looked up to see a woman with gray hair beating her aunt with a mallet.
Her aunt held her bruised and swollen head, cried and begged for mercy: "Mom, I know I was wrong, please stop hitting me!"
But the woman refused, stretched out her hand and pulled Du Damei's hair hard, and spat in her face, "I asked you to come back so late last night! Are you trying to steal my son while he's not at home?"
Du Damei's face was full of tears, and her voice became hoarse, "Mom, I didn't steal anyone, I just went to my niece's house to have dinner."
But the woman picked up the mallet and wanted to hit her again.
Du Wanchun strode forward to stop her.
However, Aunt Zhou was faster than her. She grabbed the mallet directly from the woman's hand and said sternly: "Aunt Cao, how could you beat your daughter-in-law like this in broad daylight?"
This woman is Du Damei's mother-in-law, Mrs. Cao. ?.?????.???
My mother-in-law's surname is Cao. Several generations of men in her family have been sons-in-law. It was her turn to finally give birth to two sons, so they are very precious.
My ancestors once served as county magistrates, and they often ignored the villagers and liked to take care of them.
Therefore, she disliked her daughter-in-law, who was born into a poor peasant family.
Especially since this daughter-in-law has not given birth to a boy or a girl for more than ten years, I dislike her even more.
However, everyone in the Cao family knew that the infertile man was actually Du Damei's husband.
But Cao still blamed Du Damei for this incident.
Du Damei thought that if she adopted her younger brother's daughter, her mother-in-law would treat her better, but she scolded her again, saying that since she wanted to adopt her brother's daughter, why didn't she know how to adopt a male child instead of a loser female child? What's the use?
Her eldest son had been disabled since he was a child and had no children. The second son was even more extraordinary. He got the favor of Long Yang and followed a wealthy businessman in the county and did not come back for several years.
Now that I have adopted a baby girl, I can be considered a queen.
There are rumors in the village that this is because the county magistrate of their ancestor Cao family was too patriarchal in the past, so he got retribution and had no descendants.
Many people advised Mr. Cao that a daughter would be a good idea.
It's a pity that Mr. Cao didn't listen. The more he looked at Du Damei, the angrier he became. In the past, he was only beaten and scolded once every half month, but now he was beaten every two days.
Yesterday I just came back a little late, and I was picked up early in the morning and beaten up.
The little baby in the room was still crying from hunger on the bed.
When Mrs. Cao saw Aunt Zhou, she said angrily: "It's not your turn to take care of my family's affairs!"
Aunt Zhou pulled up the bruised Du Damei, protected her behind her, and said sternly to Ms. Cao: "If I don't stop you now, you will beat her to death!"
Mrs. Cao snorted coldly and said: "If you beat a hen that doesn't lay eggs, you'll kill it! I'll just let my son marry another one."
Aunt Zhou had never seen such a shameless person, and she couldn't help but cursed: "Aunt Cao, even if Du Damei is your daughter-in-law, you are qualified to beat her like this!"
Mrs. Cao disagreed and said angrily: "She calls me mother, so I am qualified to discipline her, but you, a widow, what can you do in our house!"
After saying that, he turned around and saw Du Wanchun, "This is your newly married silly daughter-in-law! Get out of here with this silly girl!"
Du Wanchun saw that the aunt in front of her who had loved her since she was a child was beaten all over, and she couldn't help clenching her fists. She frowned slightly and walked forward slowly.
At this time, the originally clear sky suddenly became covered with dark clouds.
A thunderous explosion exploded.
Everyone present was shocked.
Mrs. Cao raised her head and glanced at the sky, then rushed forward impatiently, trying to drag Du Wanchun away, "Get out of here!"
However, she had just taken a step when a thunder in the sky hit her feet.
There was a loud bang.
Ms. Cao was so frightened that she lost her balance and fell directly towards the swill bucket on the ground.
