Chapter 259
Ma Yong kicked Yao Yi and then knocked her to the ground, saying fiercely, "Stay still in your room."
Then he locked the door, looked at Ma's mother, and went out.
Outside the house, Ma's father heard the noise and came out before them.
Father Ma smiled brightly and said to Aunt Xie and the other two, "My dear relatives, what brings you here?"
Father Yao said to Father Ma with a bad look on his face, "My dear relatives, today is the day when Yiyi returns home. Why didn't Yiyi go back?"
"Why should she go back?" Ma Yong and his mother came out of the house and said to Father Yao nonchalantly, "Our two families are so close, she can go back anytime. There's no need for her to go back today."
"Returning to one's parents' home after three days is a tradition left by our ancestors. Why don't you let Yiyi go back?" Aunt Xie said angrily.
"She married me and is my wife. If I want her to go back, she can go back. If I don't want her to go back, she has to stay here! I don't care about any traditions!" Ma Yong said arrogantly.
Aunt Xie and the other three were frightened and angry by Ma Yong's arrogance.
It seems that the reason why Yao Yi didn't go back home today was that the Ma family didn't allow her to go back.
"Why don't you let Yi Yi come back home? If you let Yi Yi out, you must be treating her badly, that's why you don't dare to let her come back home!" Aunt Xie shouted.
"We treat her very well." Ma's mother said with a forced smile, "We are teaching her how to be a daughter-in-law of our Ma family."
When Aunt Xie saw Ma's mother like this, she felt even more badly premonition.
"What on earth did you do to Yi Yi! Let Yi Yi out immediately! Yi Yi—Yi Yi—" Aunt Xie panicked and shouted Yao Yi's name at the top of her voice.
"Mom, listen, is that Yiyi's voice?" Yao Hong interrupted Aunt Xie and motioned her to listen carefully.
Aunt Xie held her breath and listened carefully. She did hear Yao Yi's voice. Yao Yi was shouting, "Dad, Mom, save me, save me!"
"You...what on earth did you do to Yiyi!" Aunt Xie pointed at Ma Yong's family and said angrily, "Let my Yiyi come out!"
"Okay, if you want to see your daughter, we will let you see her. Our family is quite easy to talk to." Ma Yong said.
Ma Yong went back to the house. A moment later, he grabbed Yao Yi by the back of her collar and brought her back.
"Dad - Mom -" Yao Yi's eyes turned red and she shouted anxiously when she saw Aunt Xie and the others.
"Yiyi--" Aunt Xie and the others were shocked when they saw Yao Yi like this, and rushed over to grab Yao Yi.
Ma's father and mother blocked their way, preventing them from getting close to Yao Yi.
"I only told you to see her, but I didn't tell you to touch her or take her away." Ma Yong said quietly.
"You bunch of beasts, you beat my daughter like this!" Aunt Xie shouted in despair.
"It's because you didn't teach your daughter well. She doesn't even know how to be a good wife. Our Ma Yong can only teach her." Ma's mother said.
"Are you teaching me this? You're clearly trying to beat her to death!" Yao's father was shaking with anger. "No wonder you don't dare let her come back home. You're just guilty!"
"Guilty?" Ma Yong sneered, "I never feel guilty when I do things."
"We want to take Yiyi back!" said Yao's father.
"She is now the daughter-in-law of our Ma family, and she is a member of our Ma family. You can't take her back just because you want to." Ma's father said slowly.
Seeing that this family was like bandits and completely unreasonable, Aunt Xie rushed over and tried to take Yao Yi away forcefully.
But Ma's mother had already seen through her thoughts, stopped Aunt Xie, and started fighting with her.
Ma's mother is usually very tough, and Aunt Xie is only a little bit tough in front of Zhong Lan, and she is a little harsh in words in the slum. But if they really fight, Aunt Xie is no match for Ma's mother at all. Ma's mother scratched her face in a few strokes and pulled out some of her hair.
When Yao's father and Yao Hong saw Aunt Xie being bullied, they went up to help.
When Ma's father saw that they were going to fight three against one, he went over to help him, and the five of them started fighting.
Although there were only two people, Father Ma and Mother Ma, their fighting power was off the charts. Father Yao and the other three were quickly suppressed by them and received many punches.
"How dare you come to my house and cause trouble? And don't you even ask about our Ma family's reputation in this area?" Ma's father said fiercely, "Your daughter married into our Ma family, yet you still dare to look down on us and even try to put on airs in front of my son. My son teaches her how to be a good daughter-in-law. It's their business, and why do you interfere? When she learns how to be a good daughter-in-law, we will allow her to return to her parents' home!"
Aunt Xie and the other two were covered in bruises, and their clothes and hair were messy.
"You are unreasonable!" Aunt Xie roared.
"Even if we're unreasonable, what can you do to us?" Ma Yong said with a playful smile, "In our family, we're the ones who are right. What right do you have to interfere?"
Ma Yong said to Yao Yi again with a smile: "See clearly now. Be good, let's go back to the room."
After saying that, Ma Yong grabbed Yao Yi by the back of her collar and dragged her into the house.
Yao Yi was panicked and frightened. She hadn't expected that even though her parents and brother had come, the Ma family wouldn't take them seriously. Instead, they beat them up, leaving them with wounds all over their faces and bodies.
"Dad, Mom, save me!" Yao Yi shouted in fear.
Just as Aunt Xie and the others were about to move, Ma's father and mother blocked them.
"Look at your daughter, she really doesn't know any rules. How can the matter of mutual training between husband and wife be related to saving lives?" Ma's mother smiled sinisterly.
Aunt Xie and the others were still in pain. Seeing Ma's father and mother like that, they didn't dare to go up to save Yao Yi. They could only watch Yao Yi being taken back to the house by Ma Yong.
"My dear relatives, please go back. We haven't prepared any food for you." Father Ma said with a smile.
Aunt Xie and the others had no choice but to leave in shame.
On the way, Aunt Xie spat out a mouthful of blood and cursed, "The Ma family is such a jerk! They beat Yi Yi like this! They shouldn't have agreed to let Yi Yi marry Ma Yong in the first place!"
"Will it be of any use if we disagree?" Yao's father said in a very bad mood, "The family has recommended so many good candidates to her, but she rejected all of them. She even insisted on threatening to jump into the river, and that's why Ma Yong blamed her. If you want to blame someone, blame her yourself!"
Although Aunt Xie also felt so - if Yao Yi hadn't jumped into the river, Ma Yong wouldn't have blamed her, and none of this would have happened - but now was not the time to pursue these things.
Aunt Xie asked, "Are we just going to ignore Yiyi? Let her get beaten like that at the Ma family?"
