“Bang!”
The more Wang Ergou thought about it, the angrier and more anxious he became.
He turned around suddenly and slapped Hu Qiuxiang in the face.
"You vicious woman! It's all your fault!"
"Do you think I don't know?"
"Ever since you married into this family, you've been constantly ordering Xiaoxue around to serve you!"
"That would be fine, but you also beat and scolded her. Look at the wounds on her body! I'll beat you to death, you vicious woman!"
Wang Ergou became more and more angry as he spoke. He suddenly snatched the stick from Hu Qiuxiang's hand and hit her with it.
"Ahh! You damn bastard, you hit me, you actually dared to hit me!"
"Why are you pretending to be a good person now?"
"You weren't there every time I beat that damn girl! Why, since you couldn't cheat that bitch Liu Cuicui out of her money, you took it out on me?"
"Don't even think about it. I'm telling you, I'm not a soft persimmon like Liu Cuicui, who can be manipulated by you."
Hu Qiuxiang was also annoyed at this moment. She quickly picked up a kitchen knife from the kitchen and went towards Wang Ergou cursing.
Seeing this, Wang Ergou ran away in panic.
"Mother, mother! Daddy, daddy... wuwu..."
The fat and big-eared boy standing nearby was so frightened when he saw this horrifying scene that he burst into tears.
The courtyard was suddenly in chaos.
…
The same scene is happening in many places.
Under a big willow tree, a man pulled a mother and daughter and begged bitterly.
"Sister, come back. I was wrong. I shouldn't be henpecked. It's all your sister-in-law's fault! I've already beaten her up and sent her back to her parents' home!"
"Sister, you have suffered a lot outside these years."
"Come home with me quickly. From now on, I will protect you well and never let you suffer any injustice again."
The man spoke righteously, his eyes slightly red, as if he was about to cry.
The woman with the little boy turned her head when she heard this, and looking at the sincere look on the man's face, she smiled.
After wasting half my life, I still have a child whose biological father is unknown.
She and her child were not accepted by her brother, and the child was even angrily called a bastard by her eldest sister-in-law.
She wanted to muster up the courage to live.
However, the world is so big that she can't find a small place to live.
In desperation, she entrusted her child to a family and jumped into the clear pool, intending to die.
Unexpectedly, he was rescued.
After hearing the explanation from her father-in-law, she was stunned for a long time and then smiled sadly.
Thinking about her life, she adhered to the ethical ethics and focused on her brother in the first half of her life, but her life was hard and miserable.
Instead, it was the Empress, whom she had never met before, who gave her the warmth and courage to live again.
Her children learned that she wanted to jump into the river and ran over.
He held her tightly, ignoring her wet clothes.
The boy stared at his mother with his big eyes without blinking. He was afraid. He was very afraid that if he closed his eyes, his mother would be upset and jump into the river again.
Mother is his only relative in this world, and he will not allow anything to happen to her.
"Sister, sister?"
Seeing the woman in a daze, the man couldn't help but rub his hands awkwardly and gently called his sister.
The woman came back to her senses after hearing that, and a smile appeared on her lips, but with a hint of sarcasm.
"Brother, forget it. I am such a disgrace that I cannot go home with you."
"After all, my reputation is already bad. If it gets out, it might be detrimental to my nephew taking the imperial examination and becoming a high-ranking official. Isn't that right?"
The woman smiled sarcastically.
"Goodbye, brother. I'm going to take a look at the Women's Factory on the orders of the Queen Mother."
"We will never meet again."
The woman pursed her lips and uttered the last few words softly.
She stood up, took the little boy's hand, and said a few words to the eunuch who announced the decree. The eunuch quickly took her in one direction.
…
A woman was walking and wiping her tears, and she recalled her mother's scolding of her. Her heart gradually sank into darkness.
Just then, a eunuch who was supposed to announce the imperial edict came running over, sweating profusely.
After asking her name and confirming her address, the father-in-law immediately announced the order.
As the woman listened, her eyes widened in horror.
Not only did she give her so much silver, the Queen also invited her to join the girls' school and the establishment of the girls' factory. This...
She is the mother of a country. How could she be so worthy as to be personally invited by the Queen?
But she was moved.
Even if I become an ordinary cleaning servant, it is all worth it if I can support myself and my children with my own abilities.
She didn't notice that her heart, which had been blamed and scolded by her relatives and had doubted life, miraculously came back to life.
until……
She saw her gray-haired mother, who had previously scolded her and threatened to kill herself outside, hurrying over with the support of her younger brother and sister-in-law.
"My dear child, you have become darker and thinner. You have suffered a lot over the years."
"Just now, I was just being blunt. Don't take it to heart."
"We are all family. Come on, come home with me. We have made your favorite grilled fish at home."
When he walked to her side, his mother looked at him lovingly and smoothed the hair around his ears with a doting look on her face.
"No, someone like me who's been ruined by others should die outside. How can I go back and embarrass myself?"
The woman looked at the crowd of people rushing over nervously and laughed sarcastically.
"Also... Mom, didn't you forget?"
"Ever since we were little, you gave all the fish meat to your younger brother, saying that fish bones were the most nutritious and forcing me to chew them up and swallow them..."
"From that time on, I no longer like eating fish."
