It was obvious that these wounds were not inflicted on the same day. Some of the marks were so light that they were almost gone, while others were purple and red.
Wu Aiju is quiet and gentle, and she doesn't get along with them very often. Since they are all wives of soldiers in the Sky Eagle Guard, she treats them as outsiders.
Lin Qingqing's eyes tightened and she asked, "Is this really your mother-in-law's fault? Doesn't your husband know?"
Wu Aiju was pulled to sit on the stool.
She hastily pulled down her sleeves.
The crying stopped, but the tears flowed even more.
Xiuhong held the child in her arms, her heart filled with anger. She said, "Aizhu, tell me the truth. Qingqing and we will take care of it for you."
Honghua also agreed: "Yes, we will help you decide."
Wu Aiju is feeling very confused now.
She had never told anyone about these things until Zhou Cuifang saw the injuries on her body.
It was for this reason that Cuifang was willing to stay with her in the army and not live outside.
Cuifang also gave her some advice, but it was of no use.
Her mother-in-law is both smart and a good actress.
As long as her husband is at home, she will treat her well and give her all the good things to eat, acting like a good mother-in-law.
She coaxed her man into keeping all his allowance with her, but as soon as the man left, she would not give him food or drink, and she would look at him with disdain every day and beat him from time to time.
In the past, she gave all the money from selling herbs to her mother-in-law, and her mother-in-law was still kind to her.
Ever since she came to Kyoto and lost her way to make money, her mother-in-law has become even more extreme. She refuses to give her food when her husband is not around and forces her to eat at other people's homes.
Recently, the news about the work benefits of the pharmaceutical factory was leaked, and her mother-in-law hated her for not being selected. She beat and scolded her at home every day, blaming her for not being capable enough and losing a good job in vain.
In the past few days, they have been using various methods to force her to ask Qingqing to work in the factory.
This time she was forced into a corner and came here only because she had no choice.
But she couldn't say these things.
Her mother-in-law said that if she told anyone about this, she would beat her to death and force her son to divorce her.
Lin Qingqing felt a little disappointed when she saw Wu Aiju with her head down and no words for a long time.
If Wu Aiju is really abused by her mother-in-law and she doesn't know how to resist, it will be futile for others to do too much.
She said, "Since you don't want to talk about it, we won't force you. I will just pretend that what happened today didn't happen."
Zhou Cuifang hugged Wu Aiju and cried.
"Aizhu, just tell us. Once you tell us, we'll all help you find a solution."
Wu Aiju's eyes were swollen from crying.
She looked at the concerned expressions of the crowd and Zhou Cuifang's warm embrace, and felt a little strength in her heart.
She gritted her teeth and burst into tears, "My mother-in-law forced me to beg Qingqing for a job at the pharmaceutical factory. She said she would beat me to death if I didn't get it, and she also asked my husband to divorce me."
She rolled up her sleeves, revealing her back, which was so thin that only her spine was left, with deep and shallow scars on it for everyone to see.
Lin Qi and Grandma Honghua also came over and gasped when they saw the injuries all over his body.
"What a vicious mother-in-law. She has been beating me for several days in a row." said Grandma Honghua.
Zhang Xiaoli clenched her fists, and Li Xiuzhen and the others' eyes turned red with anger.
"This is like not wanting people to live." Wei Yinghong said.
Xiuhong: "This isn't about wanting people to live, it's about wanting to slowly torture them to death."
Lin Qingqing went forward and tidied Wu Aiju's clothes.
He took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears, saying, "Aizhu, don't worry. I will see to this matter to the end. I will never let you live like this again."
Anger was boiling in her heart.
What era is this? A mother-in-law can still abuse her daughter-in-law so viciously.
