What was even more difficult for her to accept than the current reality was that her hope of escaping from here was shattered again.

Deng Wenying gave her hope, but just when she was fantasizing that she could escape from this disgusting place, she dealt her a heavy blow, leaving her completely numb and desperate.

Afterwards, Zhuang Guizhi numbly accepted the reality and stayed at Deng Wenying's house.

She had no choice but to accept the reality because Deng Wenying looked at her more strictly than the Zhuang family.

She is not allowed to go out or talk to others.

If she hadn't been worried about gossip, she would probably have handcuffed her.

And probably in order to consume Zhuang Guizhi's energy and prevent her from having the strength to escape, Deng Wenying would assign Zhuang Guizhi a lot of work every day.

There wasn't much space at home, but she was asked to sweep and mop the floor, and even kneel on the floor to mop.

Doing all the housework back and forth does not allow Zhuang Guizhi to have any spare energy.

If she doesn't do it, that's fine. Then just don't give her any food. Starve her for a few meals and she'll be obedient.

Under Deng Wenying's torture, Zhuang Guizhi was already exhausted both physically and mentally, and she didn't even have the strength to move.

In this family, the only person who made Zhuang Guizhi feel kind and gave her a little respite was Deng Wenying's son, who was also her husband.

Deng Wenying's son really likes Zhuang Guizhi, but he grew up under Deng Wenying's control. Faced with Deng Wenying's strong desire for control, he dared not and could not resist.

So he could only secretly feed Deng Wenying food or help her with some work in places where Deng Wenying couldn't see him.

He also tried to tell Deng Wenying not to treat Zhuang Guizhi like that, and she would live a good life with him.

But Deng Wenying not only didn't believe it, she also scolded him angrily.

She said that he had been bewitched by the vixen Zhuang Guizhi and didn't even listen to her as his mother!

She is his closest relative and the only person in the world who will not harm him!

Zhuang Guizhi is an outsider!

He actually dared to stand with Zhuang Guizhi and resist her? !

Deng Wenying was particularly angry about her son's pleading for Zhuang Guizhi, as if Zhuang Guizhi had snatched her son away.

She didn't want to vent too much anger on her son, so she vented all her dissatisfaction to Zhuang Guizhi.

From then on, in addition to making Zhuang Guizhi do endless housework, she also started to beat her.

Although Zhuang Guizhi was thin, she was not as strong as Deng Wenying and had much less strength because she often ate less and ate poorly.

When Deng Wenying beat her, she was completely powerless to resist.

If Deng Wenying's son dared to step forward to stop him, Deng Wenying would beat him even harder.

There were several times when the noise was so loud that Zhuang Guizhi's crying was heard by her neighbors, who came to inquire about the situation.

Deng Wenying said that it was natural for a mother-in-law to teach her daughter-in-law a lesson, and that Zhuang Guizhi had made a mistake, was lazy and greedy, and did not behave like a daughter-in-law. She was educating her and told the rest of the people not to interfere.

After this was said, the others could no longer say anything even if they wanted to.

Moreover, Deng Wenying looked ferocious and had a stick in her hand, so they were really afraid that she would suddenly hit them.

Since Deng Wenying couldn't be persuaded, they could only persuade Zhuang Guizhi.

Advise her to be more obedient and open-minded in the future, and not do wrong things again.

Otherwise, if she makes her mother-in-law angry, she will have to suffer alone in the future.

He also said that Deng Wenying was the elder after all, and she might have done something wrong, but it was definitely for the good of the two younger generations.
