Her mother isn't that cunning and treacherous Li Hun; if she were truly that capable, she would have discovered what she was doing long ago.
What she feared most was that Li Yi would become suspicious and stay away from home for a long time. Even a fool would know there was something fishy going on. Only her mother was a fool, thinking herself very clever.
"Haste makes waste, Li Su, what you say sounds really nice, like a song."
The cold tone rang out, and Li Su felt her body instantly stiffen and turn cold. How could she have forgotten her mother's temper?
Trying to show off your literary talent in front of her mother, that's not...
"Smack!"
Needless to say, a series of slaps landed squarely on Li Su's face, knocking her head to the side.
“Li Su, Li Su, I sent you to school so you could do things, not so you could come and lecture me.”
"You come here right now."
Before Li Su could react, Li Su's mother grabbed her by the collar and slapped her several times across the face with her right hand.
She knew that Li Su was a cunning girl.
If it weren't for the school teachers constantly visiting her home and Li Su's promises to her, Li Su wouldn't have been able to go to school, and it would have been a different story whether she could even support her.
She used to be willing to give Li Hun a smile out of respect for him, but after Li Hun broke Li Su's leg, she wanted nothing more than to kill Li Su.
The loud slap was heard even by Li Yiyi, who was sitting under the eaves.
"Yi-yi, save me."
The next second, Li Su emerged from behind the wall, her cheek swollen from the slap, her eyes blurry with tears as she looked at her, her mouth uttering cries for help.
"You wretched slut, you dare to beg for help? What's wrong with me hitting you? I'm your mother, it's only right that I hit you."
Several more hard kicks landed, and Li Yiyi couldn't tell if they were real or feigned.
But she was just a child, and it was perfectly normal for her to be afraid in this situation. It was probably right for her to run away in fear.
"Yi-yi, save me."
Li Su reached out her hand again, and Li Yiyi recoiled in fear, the color draining from her face in an instant.
Terrified, Li Yi looked around in panic. As she backed away, she accidentally bumped into the chair Li Hun was sitting on.
In his panic, he stepped on the chair, causing it to lose its balance and Li Hun to fall to the ground.
"I'm...I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."
A voice trembled with tears as Li Yiyi emerged, her eyes brimming with emotion. She looked timidly at Li Hun, then quickly ran away.
"Li Su, your family is terrifying. I will never come here again."
After saying that, he accidentally spilled all of Li Su's washed clothes on the ground, and unfortunately, one piece of clothing flew onto the pile of firewood.
Perhaps the clothes were too heavy, because the pile of firewood collapsed completely at once.
The fallen firewood almost completely covered the yard, turning the once tidy yard into a mess in an instant. At a glance, there was no intact area to be seen.
"Li Su, I'm going home now. Your mom is so scary."
After accidentally doing all this, Li Yiyi rushed out the door, her hand inadvertently using a little force, drawing surprised glances from Li Su and her mother.
The door swayed and shook several times before finally collapsing under the weight.
It landed on the ground with a thud, and Li Su and her mother's hearts followed suit.
[Host, please note that the current favorability rating of your target, Li Yiyi, is 0.00003.]
With the number doubling, Li Su felt her face no longer hurt.
Despite Li Yiyi's speed, she actually felt sorry for her. As for the mess in the yard, Li Su automatically made up an excuse for Li Yiyi.
What could Li Yiyi have done wrong? It's just that her mother's beating was so frightening that it scared Li Yiyi.
"ah"
Li Su's mother screamed, startling Li Su.
Before Li Su could react, Li Su's mother had already run to Li Hun's side, her hands trembling as she dared not move.
"Son, are you alright! That damned Li Yiyi, she's a complete slut, I will never..."
With a loud crash, the roof beam above Li Su's mother's head fell down.
Dust billowed up, and Li Su's mother's open mouth was covered in ash, making it impossible for her to utter any curses.
"Mom, let's move my brother out quickly."
Li Su ran over to remind her mother, not out of kindness, but because her mother and Li Hun were part of her strategy.
Two tigers cannot share one mountain. Since she has entered Li Yi's family, Li Yi must find a place to stay.
Her mother and Li Hun valued Li Yiyi, so as her daughter and younger sister, she naturally had to show her filial piety.
Li Yiyi: You are truly great, so great that you are selfless.
The roof beams had collapsed, and the house could collapse at any moment. Survival was the most important thing, and Li Su's mother understood this. At this critical juncture, she didn't dare continue arguing with Li Su.
"good."
"Li Su, go and move your older brother to the yard."
If given a choice, Li Su would rather Li Hun die immediately. But her heart's desire could not be fulfilled. Li Su walked to Li Hun's side and said softly.
"Big brother, I'll help you."
After saying that, he reached out, but Li Hun slapped his hand away.
"Get out of here."
Li Hun's face was full of anger. Did he need Li Su to move it? Absolutely not, if it weren't for...
A flicker of fear crossed Li Hun's eyes. He propped himself up on his hands and stood up, hopping across the spacious courtyard with only one leg remaining.
With a broken leg, he consciously or unconsciously exerted force while jumping.
"Li Su, you good-for-nothing! What are you doing? The doctor said to let your brother rest and recover properly. You can't stand to see your brother doing well. Your older brother lost a leg because of you. It's not like I'm going to kill you by moving him. My poor son!"
