Bang!
A slap hit Kong Shuan's face.
It was dumped by Tangli.
Tang Li was very strong and swung Kong Shuan so hard that half of his face turned red.
"I didn't want to fight, so as not to dirty my hands. But beating someone like you is the only way to vent my anger." Tang Li said coldly, "You still know that Wei Xiaotao is your wife! I have never seen a man as greedy as you. You sent your wife to Coal Hill, and then you use the money she earned from working hard to eat and drink. Are you still a man? I think you are not a human being at all!"
Tang Li had never seen such a beastly person, so he took the stick and hit Kong Shuan.
At first, Kong Shuan wanted to fight with Tang Li and snatch her stick, but he was short and clumsy, so he couldn't beat Tang Li at all, and in the end he could only take the beating.
Kong Shuan's arrogance was immediately shattered.
"Sister-in-law, I was wrong. Let's talk it over nicely!"
"The door hasn't been opened yet. I'm so angry that I'm talking nonsense!"
"Sister-in-law, stop hitting me! I'm going to die if you keep hitting me!"
Just then, the gate of the yard opened and Wei Xiaotao stood at the door with a cane.
After more than half a month of rest, she gained some weight and finally took on a more human form.
"Sister-in-law, please stop hitting him." Wei Xiaotao said.
Tang Li then stopped and threw the stick aside.
Kong Shuan, with a bruised face and nose, quickly ran to Wei Xiaotao and complained, "Mother, look at how ruthlessly my sister-in-law beat me! It was all for picking you up! Oh, I don't dare to stay here anymore. Let's go back quickly."
Kong Shuan's gaze swept over Wei Xiaotao's lame leg, and a look of disgust flashed in his eyes.
She's already ugly, and now she's lame. It's shameful to have a wife like her. But I can take her to the mine to get compensation. The mine said they'll only compensate her based on the extent of her injuries. Besides, she's still capable of doing laundry and cooking, so she'll be useful if I take her back. That's why Kong Shuan came to pick up Wei Xiaotao.
As Kong Shuan was about to help Wei Xiaotao, he was dodged by her.
"What's the matter? Are you still holding on to Qiao?" Kong Shuan said impatiently.
"Kong Shuan, I'm not going back."
Kong Shuan suspected that he had heard wrongly: "We are a family, and everyone else is an outsider. You must figure out whose side you are on. If you don't go back this time, don't even think about entering the Kong family's door in the future!"
Wei Xiaotao lowered her head.
She used to think that she was a member of the Kong family, but after dying once, she suddenly became enlightened.
The Kong family sent her to the mines and exchanged her life for money.
She almost died, and it was her brother who risked his own life to dig her out.
Her leg was injured, and the Kong family was afraid of having to pay for treatment, so they didn't want to.
If she can't tell who this person is from the same family as her, she would be a fool.
Wei Xiaotao raised her head and looked at Kong Shuan, having already made a decision: "Kong Shuan, I will never go back to that home again. Please divorce me."
Tang Li looked at Wei Xiaotao's response and breathed a sigh of relief.
She was really afraid that Wei Xiaotao would still be like this as before and still stand on Kong Shuan's side.
Fortunately, there is still hope.
Kong Shuan was completely stunned.
In the past, Wei Xiaotao always listened to me and never dared to talk back to me.
As soon as I said I wanted to divorce her, she felt like the sky was falling.
Now, he actually asked me to divorce her? !
"Wei Xiaotao, do you know what you are saying? If you are divorced, where can you find a good man like me?" Kong Shuan snorted coldly.
"Kong Shuan, this is none of your business. Just stop making trouble at my brother and sister's house. If you continue, I'll let A Qing beat you." Wei Xiaotao said.
When Kong Shuan heard Wei Qing, he immediately became intimidated, but still held his neck stiff.
"Wei Xiaotao, I'll give you one last chance. Are you really not going back?"
Wei Xiaotao shook her head: "No."
Kong Shuan wanted to curse, but when he glanced over, he saw Tang Li raising his hand.
Kong Shuan suddenly became intimidated and walked away in shame.
Tang Li walked up to Wei Xiaotao and helped her into the yard.
"Sister, you are right. Fate is not determined by heaven, but by yourself. A man like this is not worth it at all." Tang Li said.
Wei Xiaotao nodded.
"I've been thinking a lot lately. You're right, sister-in-law. A-Qing and sister-in-law risked their lives to rescue me. If I go back, I'll only bring pain to my loved ones and joy to my enemies."
Tang Li helped Wei Xiaotao sit down on the chair.
"It's all my fault for being stupid. Back then, when I wanted to marry Kong Shuan, my father didn't agree. But I was obsessed with him and thought Kong Shuan was a good person. I had to marry him."
"Sister, it doesn't matter if we took the wrong road for a while. We can turn to the right road. Wei Qing and I will support you." Tang Li said.
Wei Xiaotao held Tang Li's hand: "Sister-in-law, thank you."
Most of the courage that allowed Wei Xiaotao to make such a decision came from having such supportive brothers and sisters.
Wei Xiaotao continued to live in the Wei family to recuperate.
She and Zhaodi both eat and live at her brother-in-law's house, and have to take medicine every day, which must have cost a lot of money.
She felt that she owed her younger brother and sister-in-law a lot, so the mother and daughter tried to do more handicrafts every day to repay her younger brother and sister-in-law.
"Mom, can we just live here forever?" Zhaodi said.
She was now afraid that her mother would suddenly change her mind and take her back to the Kong family.
Zhaodi loves her uncle's house very much.
At her uncle's house, girls were raised like boys, unlike at the Kong family, where she and Nian Di did the most tiring work but were not even allowed to sit at the table for meals and were beaten and scolded by their grandmother.
Their cousin doesn't have to do anything, but can eat the best and use the best things.
I feel so unbalanced.
"No, this is my uncle's house." Wei Xiaotao said.
Zhaodi's shoulders slumped. "Mom, you still want to go back?"
Wei Xiaotao looked at Zhaodi with a serious expression: "Zhaodi, your uncle and aunt have helped us a lot. This is out of kindness. We should be grateful and not take it for granted, understand?"
Zhaodi nodded: "Mom, I know."
"But, mother, I still don't want to go back."
"Mom didn't say she was going back. When my leg gets better, we'll find a place to live, bring Nian Di over, and the three of us will live together." Wei Xiaotao said.
Zhaodi's eyes suddenly lit up.
As long as she doesn't go back, she can do anything!
Wei Xiaotao's legs and feet were almost healed, so she told Tang Li about her decision.
Tangli's house is quite big, and it is not a problem for Wei Xiaotao and Zhaodi to live in it, but Wei Xiaotao is very persistent.
"Sister-in-law, it's not right for a married woman to live in her parents' home. Sister-in-law, you're a good person, but I can't ask for anything more from you just because you're nice. We're two different families, and we can visit each other often, but I absolutely can't let you support me. Sister-in-law, please help me find a house, a cheap one, for the three of us to live in."
Tang Li had no choice but to agree to help Wei Xiaotao find a house.
However, before the house was found, Kong Shuan came again, this time bringing Yang and Old Man Kong with him.
