Li Zhenzhen could only try her best to dodge, but Wang Shi showed no mercy and vented her anger on Li Zhenzhen.
She seemed to want to vent all the dissatisfaction she had with her husband and the unhappiness in her family over the years.
The two were pulling each other's hair. Li Zhaodi and Li Pandi, who were standing nearby, tried their best to stop them from fighting. They themselves were accidentally scratched on the face. Li Zhaodi was much smarter. When she saw that the situation was getting out of control, she secretly hid to the side.
"Third sister, mother..."
Besides Li Zhaodi, her fourth daughter Li Zhaodi and sixth daughter Li Yingdi also stepped forward to break up the fight.
"Fine! Mother will hit her, hit her!"
The scene was chaotic for a time. Li Guangzong sat on the side and cheered happily for his mother. Li Laogen tried to join the battle between the women, but he couldn't squeeze in, so he gave up.
After exchanging glances, Grandpa Zhen and Zhen Fuyou remained silent. Zhen Fuyou, holding the letter of divorce, didn't know how to begin. In this situation, if he went in, he was sure to get a punch.
Li Zhenzhen's hair was pulled out of shape and her clothes were all wrinkled. Wang felt that she had raised these girls in vain!
Everything I do is go against her!
Just like their good-for-nothing fathers, they are all heartless.
The commotion at the Li family's house quickly alerted the families resting nearby. Every household that had followed Lin the镖头 (bodyguard) up the mountain that day had hunted some wild game, more or less.
Because everyone had a happy expression on their face, they gathered around to watch the fight that was taking place among the Li family members.
Perhaps tired of hitting, Wang finally stopped, but she was still verbally abusive, hurling the most vile insults without repeating herself, which was completely contrary to the ladylike image she had cultivated.
She glared at her own daughter with her three-eyed eyes, her gaze dark and menacing, as if she were looking at an enemy.
"Alright! You shrew, how long are you going to keep making a scene?"
Li Laogen was always a man of few words, and he rarely spoke in public. Wang Shi was the one in charge of everything. Now that others were watching the spectacle, he felt that he had lost face.
"You're a spineless coward. Your wife and son are being bullied and you don't even fight back. Do you even deserve to be called a man?"
Wang was truly fed up with Li Laogen's taciturn nature; she felt nothing but regret, as their more than twenty years of marriage had become a living hell.
He's relying on her when the family has no food; what kind of man would do that?
She was truly heartbroken. She was not even forty yet, but she looked as old as a woman in her fifties or sixties. It was all due to the hardships she had endured over the years.
She used to be gentle and considerate, but after marriage she turned into a shrew in order to protect her own family's interests. It's all because her husband is incompetent!
As Wang tearfully recounted her grievances over the years, some of the women watching the spectacle, out of compassion, and others because they felt a deep empathy for her own experiences, shed tears.
There were more whispers around him, and Li Laogen blushed with embarrassment. He wished he could dig a hole and bury himself in it, rather than embarrass himself in front of outsiders!
"Waaaaah~" Li Zhenzhen was hit for no reason, and she cried in grievance.
Her mother had a hard life, but she had an even harder one!
At this moment, she missed the days when she could act like a tyrant in the Zhen family. Although her family was poor, as long as she didn't cause trouble, her mother-in-law wouldn't treat her too badly.
Whatever comes to mind comes to life!
Li Zhenzhen saw Zhen Lao Er standing expressionlessly in the crowd, and her father-in-law had also arrived.
Hope flickered in her eyes; Zhen Lao Er must have come to take her back!
She vowed that once she returned to Zhen's home, she would apologize to her mother-in-law properly. As long as Zhen Wanwan didn't anger her, she would never cause trouble for no reason.
Unfortunately, her hopes were destined to be dashed this time.
"Honey, you've finally come to pick me up! Waaah... I know I was wrong. When I get back, I'll kneel down and beg my mother-in-law for forgiveness."
Li Zhenzhen shook off her sister's support, walked unsteadily to Zhen Fuyou, and pitifully shed tears.
Zhenfu disgustedly shook off Li Zhenzhen's hand; her youthful affection had long been shattered by Li Zhenzhen's antics.
"I'm here to deliver the divorce papers!" Zhenfu said coldly.
"What did you say? I didn't hear you clearly."
Whether she didn't hear clearly or was unwilling to accept it, Li Zhenzhen asked Zhen Fuyou again and again.
There is only one answer.
Letter of divorce.
She looked at Zhen Fuyou in disbelief, yet with a glimmer of hope, she sought confirmation from Grandpa Zhen.
Remembering his wife's special instructions, Grandpa Zhen didn't want to mess things up at this time. Looking at his desperate second daughter-in-law, he finally said something cruel.
"Second son's wife, your mother and I both agree to your divorce. You will no longer be a daughter-in-law of the Zhen family!"
Li Zhenzhen heard it with her own ears, but she refused to believe it. Ignoring the sharp stones on the ground, she knelt down in front of Grandpa Zhen and cried.
"Dad, I don't believe you! Please don't let the second son divorce me! Waaah~ I didn't push Mom down on purpose, I really didn't mean to."
Perhaps feeling she wasn't sincere enough, she kowtowed repeatedly on the ground, startling Grandpa Zhen into taking a few steps back.
He frowned and said, "What are you trying to do, second brother's wife?"
Seeing Li Zhenzhen's extreme behavior, Zhenfu felt even more disgusted. This ugly appearance was nothing like the quiet and gentle Li Zhenzhen she remembered.
Zhenfu said, "We were husband and wife. If we can part amicably, I will try my best to help you if you need anything in the future. But if you continue to make trouble, then we will go our separate ways."
How could Li Zhenzhen give up so easily? She had taken a liking to Zhen Fuyou when she was young and had been trying to seduce him. It was only with great difficulty that she finally married into the Zhen family.
How could she possibly agree to leave with nothing now?
"Brother Fu, have you forgotten our past? I used to show you my purse, and every time you went to the river, you would catch a fish for me to eat."
We have three children now, how can you bear to let them grow up without a mother?
Li Zhenzhen reminisced about the good times they had together, and said that a child without a mother is like a wildflower that can be trampled on at will.
Zhenfu, how could he not have thought about the children? He thought about it too clearly, which is why he decided to divorce Li Zhenzhen.
Otherwise, he was afraid that the twins would learn his mother's bad habits and there would be no way to make amends. Both children had already been raised to be like that by her. He was determined not to be soft-hearted again.
"Stop talking. This wasn't decided by my parents. I'm completely disappointed in you. Do you really think I don't know what you've been doing behind my back all these years?"
"If it weren't for the children, would I have tolerated you? I didn't expect you to treat the children badly, let alone push your mother like that! Do you know that if the wound on the back of my head had been any deeper, I might have died on the spot!"
Li Zhenzhen's eyes were swollen from crying, and her voice was so hoarse that she could not speak. She could only look at Zhenfu with despair and shake her head.
She really didn't mean to harm her mother-in-law, so why won't her husband believe her?
