Ye Xiaoxiao had been attacked by Li Chenyang three times; this time it was her turn.
She grabbed Li Chenyang by the back of his neck with one hand, lifted him up, then grabbed his hair, and with her other hand, she hit him twice in the face, effectively putting a pair of sunglasses on him.
Li Jianguo was dumbfounded. This strength... was she even a pregnant woman?
[Congratulations, host, you have completed 1% of the mission "Transform Li Chenyang". Reward: a case of milk.]
Ye Xiaoxiao let go of his hand, and after hearing Tongzi's voice, she smiled.
As for cow's milk, although we have goat's milk at home, my mother-in-law would never drink it herself.
Those goat milks were all collected daily during the Anti-Japanese War and sold; they could earn at least ten yuan a month.
I still need to earn dowries for my sons. This milk is good; it's mine, I'll drink a carton every day from now on.
Give yourself some extra nutrition.
Li Chenyang almost cried after being hit by his wife.
He couldn't beat his wife, especially since she was pregnant. He was too ashamed to go out in public. He almost cried.
"Dad, look at her..." Li Chenyang looked as aggrieved as a three-year-old child.
"What are you looking at?" Ye Xiaoxiao interrupted him.
"Li Chenyang, you tell me yourself, who will listen to you in this family from now on?"
Seeing that Li Chenyang still dared to speak, Ye Xiaoxiao grabbed his ear.
Li Chenyang cried out in pain, "Stop pulling! I'll listen to you... I'll listen to whatever you say..."
These words left Li Jianguo and Liu Juan speechless for a moment. They were genuinely angry, but they also genuinely wanted to laugh.
The two men saw that the fight was over and that their son had lost.
There was no point in saying anything more; it would be pointless. The son couldn't win against the daughter-in-law.
【Host, you did a great job!】The system gave Ye Xiaoxiao a thumbs up.
Li Chenyang slept on a makeshift bed on the floor in the room that night. Last night, Liu Juan saw that her son had been beaten black and blue, so she boiled two eggs and rolled them around in the water. Now she only dared to curse Ye Xiaoxiao in her heart.
She was afraid that if she said anything more to Ye Xiaoxiao, that woman would punish her, the mother-in-law.
She still remembers what the woman behind her said.
"Li Chenyang, let me tell you, I married you to live a good life, not to be a slave to your Li family. If you don't know how to treat your wife well, I'll teach you what it means to have someone who can subdue you!"
"Dad, Mom, you both heard it too."
Although my family home is far away, I'm quite strong, and I'm not someone to be bullied.
If you think I'm not a suitable daughter-in-law, then we'll get a divorce. Anyway, my family lives far away, so it won't affect me.
But your family has five sons and two daughters. You got married for six months, and I divorced you, taking the children with me.
I'll see who dares to marry their daughter into your family, and who dares to take your daughter as their daughter-in-law.
If you think it's appropriate, then stop trying to punish me.
I, Ye Xiaoxiao, married into this family to be a daughter-in-law, not to be your slave!
Liu Juan lay on the kang (a heated brick bed) all night without being able to sleep.
Li Jianguo was in the same boat; both of them were incredibly annoyed.
I had previously introduced many local girls to my eldest son, but when they heard that he had six sons and two daughters, they were all too scared to marry him.
Especially since Li Chenyang is the boss,
This dragged on until he was 25. Unexpectedly, Ye Xiaoxiao, a girl from out of town, took a liking to the eldest son.
They thought it was a good thing, since Ye Xiaoxiao's family lived far away and she was easy to control. Now, their eldest daughter-in-law was riding high on their heels.
Could it be that all that obedience and docility before was just an act? This is her true nature.
"Sigh!" Li Jianguo sighed as he thought of this.
Liu Juan tossed and turned, but dared not say anything, for fear that her eldest son would hear her if she said anything.
"Tell me, what are we going to do in the future? It's like marrying a tigress, what will become of the eldest son..."
Liu Juan was speaking very quietly to Cai Tou.
"Never mind that, it's the eldest's fate. As long as they don't get divorced, it's fine. Once the third and fourth sons are married, we'll divide the family property and let them go to their respective places!"
Li Jianguo figured it would only take two years. Next year, he'd move his eldest and second sons out to live separately. As for the third son, he'd wait.
"Tongzi, do you think I'm being too harsh?"
Ye Xiaoxiao hid on the kang (a heated brick bed). Through the moonlight, she could see Li Chenyang sleeping on the floor.
They say men are all heartless jerks; he hit himself and then just fell asleep like that.
[Host, this is called making an example of someone. You'd better work harder in the future, otherwise Li Chenyang's personality will never change.]
Ye Xiaoxiao smiled. Yes, it's easier to change mountains and rivers than to change one's nature. Li Chenyang's bad habits can't be changed by a beating alone.
Especially those unreliable brothers and friends.
The next morning, Li Chenyang limped outside the yard, smoking. His left hand was on his waist, and his right hand was trembling as he lit a cigarette.
The third brother leaned over and offered a light: "Big brother, what happened to your eyes?"
"Get out of here!" Li Chenyang took a deep drag, the smoke making him cough.
The second child laughed even louder after being scolded.
He thought to himself that it was good that his fiancée seemed quite gentle, so she wouldn't end up like his older brother.
Wang Ailing, who lives across the street, got up early just to see what was going on in the neighborhood. From afar, she saw Li Chenyang's face with his two black-rimmed glasses, which made her very upset. She told everyone she met that the eldest son of the Li family was fighting with his wife.
The beating was so brutal it turned the house upside down. Li Chenyang was practically blind, and Ye Xiaoxiao's leg was broken. The reason was that Ye Xiaoxiao hadn't gotten up yet that morning, so she didn't see what was happening and guessed that she had already been beaten badly.
