Chapter 8: Mother's Support

"Once a daughter is married off, she is like water spilled. Is this how the Zhou family tortures you?"

After hearing Lin Xiuzhen’s words, the three daughters were stunned.

They were all so silly and approachable as if they were meeting Lin Xiuzhen for the first time.

"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"

As soon as Lin Xiuzhen saw the looks in her daughters' eyes, she knew what they were thinking and immediately glared at them unhappily.

It’s still a familiar feeling, but the tone makes people feel warm.

Gu Zhaodi couldn't help but sniff.

"Mom, I'm fine..."

When Gu Zhaodi opened her mouth, she subconsciously wanted to say that she was fine.

But Lin Xiuzhen didn't give her this opportunity.

"What? Do you think your mother is blind? Look at you now. You are not even living well at home. The Zhou family washes all the clothes for you, and even your father-in-law's clothes?"

When Lin Xiuzhen is angry, she is quite scary.

"Well, let me wash them all." Gu Zhaodi lowered her head and replied in a buzzing voice.

"Sister, this family is so weird, right? They even want you to wash your brother-in-law's clothes?"

Gu Laidi, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help but speak up.

Others clearly agreed.

Gu Zhaodi suddenly stopped talking and didn’t know how to tell her family.

Speaking of which, since getting married, Gu Zhaodi has rarely returned to her parents' home because of the difficulties caused by her in-laws.

She also knew that her own mother had sold her, and if nothing else happened, she naturally wouldn't want her to go home.

She also knew that even after returning home, she would not get any comfort. Instead of this, it would be better not to go home.

It’s just a little surprising that my mother came to see me at this time.

"Come on, stop washing. I want to ask what's going on with this daughter-in-law washing her brother-in-law's underwear!"

Lin Xiuzhen was about to take Gu Zhaodi away after she finished speaking, but she didn't expect that as soon as she took Gu Zhaodi's hand, she heard the other party take a breath.

"What's going on?"

Lin Xiuzhen then realized that it was still summer, but Gu Zhaodi was wearing long sleeves and did not even roll up her sleeves when she was washing clothes.

This is very suspicious.

She immediately rolled up her sleeves, and everyone saw the bruises and even burns on her arms. Because of the hot weather, the wounds had not been treated properly and had become festered.

It was simply shocking to watch.

When the other two sisters saw the wound, they couldn't help but gasp.

"Sister, what happened to your hands?"

Gu Zhaodi's eyes were red and she pulled her clothes over to cover her wounds.

In fact, she still didn't want her family to see her in such a miserable and miserable state.

Lin Xiuzhen was already feeling a little disappointed with her.

"What? Are you going to continue covering it up now? Did that stepson bully you? Haven't you suffered enough in the Zhou family? Do you want to continue like this? You may not even be able to stay in the Zhou family alive by then."

Lin Xiuzhen was really angry this time.

This daughter is a little too cowardly.

It's come to this point, and there's obviously no need to hide it.

"Mom asks you, what are you thinking right now? Do you still want to live like this?"

"mother?"

Gu Zhaodi didn't understand what Lin Xiuzhen meant at first.

What else can we do if we can't live our lives to the fullest?

As a woman, can I go back to my parents' home after divorce?

If I dare to go back, the spit from everyone in the village will be enough to drown me.

In today's world, it is actually very difficult for divorced women.

Lin Xiuzhen said it directly.

"I'm going to put this here. If you can't live like this anymore, we'll get divorced and you can pack up and go home. You'll always have a place at home. Don't worry about that. If you still live like this... I really don't care about you anymore. Think about it carefully. What kind of life have you been leading in the Zhou family?"

Gu Zhaodi's mind was very confused at the moment.

Before I could figure it out, the person had already been taken away.

Lin Xiuzhen is going to make a big deal about this matter today.

So he gave instructions to the two sisters behind him.

"Take this wash basin. This time, we must get an explanation from the Zhou family."

Lin Xiuzhen was so heroic and confident that she made Gu Pandi and her sister's blood boil.

Is her mother so fierce?

This was the first time they saw their own mother defending them. They had always been treated as money-losing goods before, but now, looking at Lin Xiuzhen walking in front of them, they felt like she was a female warrior.

The whole family is about to go to the battlefield.

When they thought of this, Gu Pandi and Gu Laidi’s eyes lit up.

The two sisters looked at each other, and then took the basin from the shore away together.

When Gu Laidi picked it up, she maliciously put the man's underpants on it, and then picked it up with the basin.

When Lin Xiuzhen was about to reach the crowded part of the village, she pinched her thigh and it hurt so much that she almost cried.

Then he walked out crying.

"It's so unfair! It's so unfair!"

The people who were working in the fields couldn't help but tremble in their hands when they heard the cry. Some of them didn't react in time and almost hit their feet with the hoe.

Then one by one, they all stood up to see what was going on.

What I saw was a strange old woman crying.

Everyone was even more confused, but soon they noticed Gu Zhaodi standing next to them.

"Isn't this the second daughter-in-law of the Zhou family? What's wrong with her?"

Maybe everyone likes to join in the fun, so when they heard the noise, they put down their work and wanted to see what was going on.

After seeing more people gathered around her, Lin Xiuzhen officially began her performance.

"Everyone come and take a look. I am Gu Zhaodi's biological mother. I haven't seen my daughter for such a long time, so I came to see her. Who knew that I saw my daughter helping my younger brother-in-law and my elder uncle wash their underwear. Everyone come and take a look. Such a large family's clothes are all left to my daughter alone. The Zhou family is simply inhumane!"

As Lin Xiuzhen finished speaking, the two sisters Gu Pandi, who followed behind her, immediately put the basins in their hands on the ground.

Everyone looked.

Yoho!

This is true!

Many young wives blushed at this moment.

After all, she is married, so it’s okay for her to wash her man’s underwear, but she also washes the underwear for her brother-in-law and her father-in-law’s family, right?

Lin Xiuzhen was not afraid of embarrassment. She simply picked up the branch next to her and picked up the underwear in the basin, which was a pair of underwear with holes in it.

"Come on, everyone, come and take a look. Whose underwear is this? Oh my! This Zhou family is really not human. They treat people like animals."

At this time, the Zhou family also heard the noise and came over.

As Old Man Zhou pushed the crowd aside and walked in, he saw his pair of torn and thread-ridden shorts being lifted up. Even though Old Man Zhou was so old, his face turned red.

"My dear, what are you doing? You can just talk, why are you doing this? It's so indecent!"

As soon as Old Man Zhou walked in, he started blaming Lin Xiuzhen.
