"You brat, are you broken or dead? Get over here right now! If your little brother catches a cold, I'll beat you to death, you little hussy."

A thunderous chorus of curses erupted from inside the house, startling the little girl in the yard. She glanced furtively at the half-open door and stared at the wooden bucket in front of her with a troubled expression.

The wooden tub was filled with hot water, which was meant to be taken inside to wipe her younger brother's body. However, the tub was as tall as her; how could she possibly carry it inside?

Just as she was struggling with this, the woman inside the house, Niu Daya, came out and picked up a wooden stick that was placed by the door.

"I'll beat you to death, you bastard! I asked you to do something, and you're slacking off here."

"Let me tell you, if your brother catches a cold, I'll beat you to death and that would be too lenient for you."

The girl was stunned by the first blow, but the pain made her reflexively try to dodge, which made Niu Daya even angrier when she saw her dodge.

"You dare to hide? You've gotten bolder these past few days, haven't you? You've been slacking off, and now you dare to hide? I'm going to teach you a lesson today."

Niu Daya grabbed the girl's hair, preventing her from moving, and a barrage of sticks rained down on her.

"You jinx, I'll beat you to death, beat you to death!"

The girl shrank her neck, with nowhere to hide, and managed to utter a weak cry, "It hurts, it hurts, stop hitting me, stop hitting me."

The wooden stick was as thick as a baby's arm. Niu Daya had great strength, and with a ferocious expression, she struck down with the stick again and again.

The sound of the beating was almost drowning out the girl's faint pleas for mercy.

With a creak, the tightly closed door next to it opened, and a man yawned out. It was already high in the sky, but he still looked sleepy.

The man's name was Wang Sanbao, and he was Niu Daya's husband.

He rubbed his eyes, walked to the well, scooped up half a ladle of water with a ladle, and gulped it down. After finishing, he casually tossed the ladle aside without putting it back in the bucket.

"Niu Daya, are you deaf? Didn't you hear Da Cai crying inside?" Wang Sanbao shouted, grinning, looking at the two people in the yard with a look of disgust.

He was used to this scene; they would fight every three days, sometimes a little, sometimes a lot, which was incredibly noisy and kept him from getting a good night's sleep.

"Wang Sanbao, you son of a bitch, Da Cai is crying and you don't even go to see him?" Niu Daya finally stopped hitting him when she heard her precious son crying.

Wang Sanbao, who had been scolded, stretched and mumbled, "If I can't appease him, you go."

Without Niu Daya's curses and the sound of sticks, the crying inside the house finally became clear.

Worried about her son, Niu Daya pushed the girl to the ground. The girl fell to the ground with a thud like a rag doll with its strings cut, curling up in pain.

Seeing her half-dead state, Niu Daya slammed the stick down on her and walked into the house cursing.

"Oh, my good son, Mom is here, don't cry." Niu Daya walked to the bedside, picked up the wailing Wang Dacai, and gently coaxed him.

"Don't cry, Mommy's holding you, don't cry." Her gentle voice truly revealed a loving mother, a stark contrast to her demeanor just moments before.

Wang Sanbao lazily walked into the house, and as he passed the girl, he said, "You brat, go to the kitchen and get me something to eat."

Niu Daya had just calmed her son down when she heard her husband's words and shouted loudly, "What are you doing, you brat? Bring in the hot water first, our son isn't dressed yet!"

Wang Dacai was the son that the couple had been longing for, and Wang Sanbao naturally cherished him dearly. "Alright, bring in the hot water for your brother first."

After saying that, he walked straight past the bucket, not noticing that the person behind him did not react.

As soon as Wang Sanbao entered the room, he said, "This brat will be gone in a little while anyway, so why did you go through all that trouble to hit her?"

Don't assume Wang Sanbao feels sorry for the girl when you hear this; he's just being a chatterbox.

“I raised her all these years, feeding her well every day, so what if I beat her?” Niu Daya’s voice was extremely loud, and she said this without batting an eye. “It’s already a favor that I didn’t kill her.”

Wang Sanbao did not refute, clearly agreeing with Niu Daya's words. He reached out and touched his son's face, "Once that brat is gone, our family's good days will begin."

Hearing this, Niu Daya's eyebrows relaxed. "That's right. I'm telling you, you need to hurry up and get this done. Don't delay it at all."

“Okay, I’ll go after I finish eating,” Wang Sanbao readily agreed.

"What are you waiting for? Finish your meal and go get the water as soon as that brat brings it in. This concerns our son and is a big deal for our family. We can't delay."

Wang Sanbao was initially reluctant, as he was already hungry, but he felt that Niu Daya's words made sense. He thought that once he sent the girl away, the food would be better than it was now.

"Hey, this brat hasn't brought the water in yet?" The two realized that she hadn't come in after they finished speaking.

Niu Daya's face immediately contorted into a ferocious expression. "That bitch, I'll beat her to death!"

"Alright, don't let our son catch a cold. I'll go check on him." Wang Sanbao stopped Niu Daya and walked towards the door.

Seeing the girl still lying on the ground, he yelled at the top of his lungs, "You brat, you brat, get up and bring the water in, or your mother will skin you alive!"

After calling her several times without getting a response, Wang Sanbao became puzzled, went outside, and kicked the girl with his toe, "Hey, you brat, get up."

The girl remained motionless. "I said, you brat, no wonder your mother beat you," he said, reaching out to pull her.

This pull terrified Wang Sanbao. "Oh my God!"

The girl's face was deathly pale, with a very noticeable dark bruise on her left cheek, her eyes were tightly closed, and her lips were bluish-green.

Out of fear, Wang Sanbao suddenly let go, and the girl fell straight down.

It's like, it's like, a dead person.

A dead person?!

Trembling fingers carefully reached towards the girl's nose. "Ah, Daya, Daya, come here quickly."

Hearing her husband's shouts, Niu Daya reluctantly came out, saying, "Are you trying to die? Why are you wailing like that?"

Wang Sanbao collapsed to the ground, stammering, "Die, die, you little brat~~~~~"

"This brat is slacking off! I'm going to beat her to death!" Niu Daya didn't notice the man's fear. She only saw the girl's face when she bent down to pick up the stick.

"This, this~~~" She quickly took a step back, startled as well.

"Da Ya, this girl is dead?!" Wang Sanbao's words startled Niu Daya, who broke out in a cold sweat. She only wanted to teach the girl a lesson, not kill her. Wasn't this how she always did it? How could she be dead today?

"What should we do?" Although Wang Sanbao was a man, he was timid and hesitant, and he was already in a panic when faced with such a situation.

Niu Daya was quick-witted. "Sanbao, come here."
