Li Xiaoqin suppressed her excitement and quietly gossiped about Shen Qiushu from behind.
Rather than getting entangled with them here, it would be better to separate and live separately.
But in fact, Shen Qiushu was just speaking casually just now.
He knew that his father would never let the three brothers separate.
As expected, upon hearing the word "separation", Old Man Shen immediately got angry: "You useless thing, how dare you mention separation? I will beat you to death!"
He didn't care that one of his legs couldn't move. He would rather hop over on one foot and beat up this outspoken and unfilial son.
Is Shen Qiushu the kind of person who would stand and get beaten? As soon as Old Man Shen raised his hand, he turned around and tried to run.
But this time, his way was blocked by his own wife.
Li Xiaoqin bared her teeth and squinted her eyes, refusing to let Chen Qiushu escape.
No matter what we say today, we have to mention the issue of separation. What if it happens?
She was really fed up with the people in the Shen family.
If it weren't for the eldest brother's family constantly causing trouble, how could the Shen family have ended up in a situation where they were facing famine?
Not only did she suffer the embarrassment, but she also had to work together to pay off the debt. So who should she owe whom?
Shen Qiushu tried to break away from Li Xiaoqin, but she was determined not to let him go.
Due to this delay, Old Man Shen came in front of them.
Since he didn't have any suitable weapon, he would use his fists. In any case, he had to vent his anger.
Chen Qiushu couldn't dodge, and after being hit a few times, he also lost his temper.
He brushed Old Man Shen's arm away, glared and roared: "Is this the end? What did I do wrong? Dad beat me to death?"
"Since you think so little of me, let's separate, right now."
Chen Qiushu panted and sat down on the edge of the kang, tilting his head angrily.
"After the separation, you can subsidize my eldest brother and the others in any way you want. No one will find fault with you anymore. You can just happily perform the fatherly love and filial piety. Xiaoqin and I will move out and won't be a nuisance to you. Is that okay?"
Shen Qiushu was angry, and Old Man Shen was even angrier than him: "I said you are not allowed to split up the family, are you deaf? I tell you, before I die, you three brothers can forget about splitting up the family."
Shen Qiushu retorted: “If we don’t divide the family, are we still waiting for you and your eldest daughter-in-law to steal our money together?”
He now looks at his father as if he were an enemy, and the resentment in his heart is as strong as that of a ghost.
Li Xiaoqin also chimed in: "Dad, you are too biased. All the debts owed by this family are because of my eldest brother and his wife. Qiushu and I didn't get any benefits, but we have to pay the debt together. How can you be a father like this..."
With a "slap", before Li Xiaoqin could finish her words, Old Man Shen slapped her in the face: "I'm talking to my son, how can you interrupt me?"
Li Xiaoqin covered her face and looked at her father-in-law who was glaring at her in disbelief. She stood there blankly, unable to speak.
She only felt a surge of anger spreading rapidly from her chest, and then quickly spread to her brain.
He pointed at Old Man Shen with a trembling hand and was about to question him, but unexpectedly, his eyes went dark and he knew nothing afterwards.
Chen Qiushu was lying on the kang and watched helplessly as Li Xiaoqin was slapped by her father, then fell down with her eyes rolled back.
"Wife? Wife?" He was so scared that he rushed forward to grab the person.
Old man Shen was a little dazed after the slap, and he looked at his own slap at a loss.
But when I saw Li Xiaoqin lying on the ground, my first reaction was that she was pretending to be unconscious.
"Why are you pretending? If you are so good at pretending, why don't you go and sing?"
He thought, who would faint after being slapped? She was not made of paper.
But Shen Qiushu kept slapping Li Xiaoqin's face, but there was no sign of her waking up.
He yelled at Old Man Shen: "If anything happens to my wife, no one in our family will survive..."
Old man Shen held onto the wall with his hands and slowly sat down on the kang, looking at the third brother and his wife with a guilty conscience.
"You...you don't have to say harsh words to me. She is such a grown-up, how can she die from a slap?" Old man Shen still felt that Li Xiaoqin was pretending.
But Shen Qiushu slapped the man on the face several times but failed to wake him up. This time he was a little panicked.
In fact, he also thought at first that Li Xiaoqin was just trying to save face and wanted to outwit the old man, so even though he just challenged his father, he didn't take it seriously.
He even whispered to Li Xiaoqin behind the others' back while calling for help: "That's enough, just pretend for a while, the ground is so cool!"
So after feeling that Li Xiaoqin was not pretending, Shen Qiushu even changed his voice a little: "Wife? Wife? Don't scare me, wake up!"
He stretched out his fingers and pinched Li Xiaoqin's philtrum hard. After pinching for a long time, he saw Li Xiaoqin's eyelids move.
Shen Qiushu hurriedly called her: "Wife? Wife? Wake up, wake up!"
Wang Huilian, who was standing by, covered her face with her hands and said disdainfully, "You are really good at pretending. No wonder you were able to control the Third Brother. If you don't go and perform, your talent will be wasted."
Shen Limin winked at his mother frantically, wiping the blood off her face with a cloth, and whispered to her, "Mom, please say less, or we'll fight again."
Wang Huilian: "Hiss~~~Be gentle, it hurts!"
Then, after rolling her eyes at her son, Wang Huilian grumbled, "What's the point of giving birth to you? You can't rely on any of you."
"Your Third Aunt hit me just now, why didn't you help me? You just watched her scratch me like this?"
Shen Limin felt a little wronged: “Mom, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, I just didn’t react!”
"Who knew that Auntie San would hit you over a disagreement? If I knew she would hit you, I would definitely help you!"
"You just talk, but I can't lend you any help." Wang Huilian angrily reached out to grab the cloth from Shen Liming's hand and pressed it on the wound to stop the bleeding.
Li Xiaoqin over there finally opened her eyes slowly after being tossed around by Shen Qiushu.
Chen Qiushu looked at her with some concern: "Wife? What's wrong with you? Where do you feel uncomfortable?"
Li Xiaoqin paused for a long time and did not speak immediately. Instead, she suddenly reached into her cotton trousers.
When she took her hand out, she found that her fingers were covered with bright red blood.
Shen Qiushu looked at the blood on her hand and was a little confused at first. After he reacted, his face flushed and he pressed her hand down.
"Wife, what are you doing? Aren't you ashamed?"
Shen Qiushu thought Li Xiaoqin had her period.
He was a little angry. How could his wife do such a shameful thing?
Li Xiaoqin, looking at the blood on her hands, cried, "Qiu Shu, go call a doctor for me, I...I..."
She said the word "I" twice in a row and couldn't say any more.
A strong sense of uneasiness arose in Li Xiaoqin's mind.
Because these days are not the time for her to live a peaceful life.
