Li Jianguo was a strong-willed man his whole life, and at home, Liu Juan always indulged him.

I never expected that when it was my son's turn, he would get beaten up by his wife. His face was a complete mess.

"Dad, what do you mean by that? It means I can't handle him, but he can hit me?"

Ye Xiaoxiao didn't care about her father-in-law's high reputation or his status as the chief steward. Everyone had to listen to him.

Her main quest has been revealed: she's tasked with reforming Li Chenyang. In her opinion, Li Chenyang just needs a good beating. He won't amount to anything without discipline.

"You... Ye Xiaoxiao, you're supposed to be someone's wife, how can you beat your man like this? Is he even presentable?"

Li Jianguo didn't want to admit what he had just said, so he lowered his voice and said, "Everything was fine during the day, so why is it starting all over again now?"

With such a commotion at the Li family's house, Auntie from next door has already come over.

Wang Ailing, who lives across the street, couldn't be left out, and eagerly followed along to see what was going on.

"What's going on? I've been hearing you guys making a racket from far away."

Second Aunt Sun Xiuxiu rushed over anxiously. As mentioned in the book, although Second Aunt had a good relationship with her mother-in-law after she got older, the two had been at odds for many years, each watching the other's misfortune.

“Yes, yes, why are you all making a fuss?” Wang Ailing followed closely behind her second aunt.

Li Chenyang initially thought it was okay to hit his wife, but with outsiders present, he immediately felt ashamed that a grown man like him had been beaten by his wife. He grabbed the broom that Ye Xiaoxiao was swinging at him.

"That's enough! If you keep making a scene, I'll hit you!" Li Chenyang was getting a little carried away. His shout silenced everyone. Ye Xiaoxiao was startled too.
