But Li Hongjuan was unwilling to do so.
Apart from anything else, her second-married man is really ugly compared to Zhong Chengfa.
The man was tall, black and fat. To be able to grow so tall in those days, his family conditions must be quite good, otherwise they wouldn't have enough food to support him to this size.
The most important thing is that his nostrils are turned outward, his eyes are small, and his facial features are squeezed together.
So ugly!
The man was quite satisfied with Li Hongjuan. After all, Li Hongjuan looked very pretty.
This man was also married for the second time. He said that his previous wife died of illness, leaving him with a son and a daughter.
Li Hongjuan was actually mentally prepared to marry and become a stepmother, but it was obvious that she was not prepared enough.
The eldest son of the family was already twelve years old and was almost as tall as Li Hongjuan. On the first day she came home, she hit Li Hongjuan in the stomach with a headbutt, knocking her directly to the ground.
He also called her a bitch, a whore, and all sorts of nasty things.
The younger daughter was already ten years old and looked sinister all day long. That night, she stuffed caterpillars into Li Hongjuan's clothes.
How did Li Hongjuan know that it was her who did it?
Because she found that when the caterpillar screamed in fear, the ten-year-old girl stood aside, gave her a sinister smile, and then said: If you are so afraid of caterpillars, what about mice, cockroaches, and snakes?
Li Hongjuan felt creepy.
What Li Hongjuan found most unbearable were her in-laws in her second marriage.
The father-in-law was quite short, with small eyes and a protruding nose, but his eyes were particularly obscene. As soon as she entered the door, this old man in his fifties looked her up and down, back and forth several times as if she were a commodity.
Her mother-in-law was more than a head taller than her father-in-law, and was also big and strong with small eyes.
Although she had a smile on her face, when she looked at Li Hongjuan, there was a barely perceptible hatred in her eyes.
Li Hongjuan didn't understand, and she didn't want to understand.
And that night, she was even more miserable when she had sex with her man Gao Guixi.
Gao Guixi was ugly but very strong. She was tortured by him to the point of wanting to die, and he would slap her in the face if she resisted him even a little.
Not only that, she had to cooperate with whatever he wanted to do.
Li Hongjuan felt like she was being tormented like a rag doll.
That’s not all. If her parents-in-law were kind to her on the first day, her mother-in-law pulled her out of bed early the next morning and forced her to make breakfast.
But even when making breakfast, her mother-in-law still kept a close eye on the food at home. She would scoop out the cornmeal every time and then stare at her while she cooked, for fear that she would steal a bit.
What’s infuriating is that her mother-in-law only gave her this little bit of food, and she was scolded by those two little brats after she made it.
She said it wasn’t tasty, that there wasn’t enough to eat, and that it was all her fault.
Li Hongjuan was so angry that her whole body was shaking.
The old hag only gave her so little food, how much could she make? Was she expected to add more herself?
And today, the older boy even threw corn paste directly on her face.
"You're giving us this pig food?"
Fortunately, the corn paste had been left to dry for a while and was a little hot, but it wouldn't burn people.
But then the big brat kicked her in the stomach.
After Li Hongjuan divorced Zhong Chengfa, she returned to her parents' home. She stayed there for less than a month, and the little weight she had gained with great difficulty at Zhong Chengfa's house quickly disappeared.
So she couldn't withstand the kick from the big guy and fell directly from the bench to the ground.
Li Hongjuan's grievances suddenly burst out and she burst into tears.
Gao Guixi stepped forward and slapped him: "Why are you crying? Kneel down for me!"
Seeing that she didn't understand, Gao Guixi also went up and kicked her.
He was much stronger than the older guy. Li Hongjuan almost vomited blood after being kicked, so she had to kneel down.
The others ignored her and continued eating.
The old woman served another bowl to the eldest son and poured the corn paste in Li Hongjuan's bowl directly into her own bowl.
No one spoke to Li Hongjuan again.
Li Hongjuan knelt on the side, not daring to speak, and could only cry quietly.
She thought again, how did she become like this?
If I hadn't divorced Zhong Chengfa, even if he beat me every day, it wouldn't have ended like this...
After they finally finished their meal, the old woman asked Li Hongjuan to clean up.
Li Hongjuan's eyes were swollen from crying, and she spoke cautiously, "Mom, I, I haven't eaten yet?"
The old woman admired her current appearance for a moment before she sneered and said, "If you want to eat, isn't there some on the ground?"
Li Hongjuan was struck by lightning.
On the ground?
She lowered her head to look at the ground, which was splashed by the big brat.
Just at this moment, the kid deliberately walked over here and stepped heavily on the corn paste on the ground.
She even laughed playfully: "I have it on my shoes too, little bitch, you're not going to lick my shoes, are you?"
Li Hongjuan's anger suddenly rose.
Little bitch? You're the fucking bitch!
Of course she wouldn't eat the corn porridge on the ground, so she could only suppress her anger and hunger and go to clean up the dishes obediently.
But while she was washing, her tears flowed like they were free.
After dinner, Li Hongjuan was forced to go to work again.
She had just arrived in the village and didn't know anyone, but as soon as she started to slack off, the old hag would appear out of nowhere and either kick her or pinch her.
After these three days, there was no good flesh left on her arms.
After arriving at the field and being busy for a while, Li Hongjuan finally had a chance to slack off when she saw the old woman go to the toilet. She couldn't help but start wiping her tears again.
An aunt working in the field nearby couldn't help but sigh and muttered softly.
"How pitiful! Gao Guixi's first two wives were tortured to death by his family... I wonder how long this third wife can last..."
Li Hongjuan didn't know.
What Li Hongjuan didn’t know was that the nightmare was yet to come.
That night, after she washed up and was about to endure Gao Guixi's torture, Gao Guixi came in with his father.
Li Hongjuan was already taking off her clothes. When she saw the two men coming in, she screamed and quickly pulled the quilt to cover her body.
Unexpectedly, Gao Guixi impatiently pulled the quilt away and threw it aside.
"What's there to hide?" He uttered words that made Li Hongjuan's hair stand on end. "Lie down! Let Dad try! Give me a son quickly!"
Old Gao's eyes wandered greedily over Li Hongjuan's body, and finally he said, "This one is not as plump as the last one, there is no meat!"
