Ye Yunniang didn't say anything, but silently pulled the two children aside to avoid Niu Dajiao.
It is believed that an elder kneeling before a younger person will shorten their lifespan.
"Grandma Niu, are you going to wish me a Happy New Year?" Xu Erlei asked Niu Dajiao curiously.
Kneeling before someone is only done during the Chinese New Year.
Li Ping grabbed a handful of melon seeds from the small backpack Ye Yunniang had sewn for her and stuffed them into Niu Dajiao's hand.
"New Year's money".
Cow Big Feet, feeling awkward: ...
Ye Yunniang was bewildered by Li Ping's actions and didn't react for a moment.
"Hahaha... Big-Foot Niu, it's not even the New Year yet. And you're already kowtowing to people so casually. It's hilarious, hahaha..." A series of laughs erupted from the side.
Ye Yunniang turned around and recognized Hongyan from courtyard number 7. Hongyan leaned against the wall, mocking Niu Dajiao.
Upon hearing Hongyan's voice, Niu Dajiao jumped up, not forgetting to stuff the melon seeds in his hand into his pocket.
"You slut, your father-in-law can't satisfy you anymore. You're coming to me to throw a tantrum. I'm not a man, I don't fall for that."
Niu Dajiao knows how to strike at people's hearts.
In the past, such a statement would have angered Hongyan and put her at a disadvantage. But today, Hongyan was not angry; instead, she looked at Niu Dajiao with a smile.
"Whether I'm provocative or not, ask your man? Ask your son?"
"What do you mean?" Niu Dajiao's expression changed drastically, and he had a bad feeling.
“It’s just what you think.” Hongyan stretched out her hand, revealing a silver bracelet with an orchid design on her wrist.
Niu Dajiao recognized it at a glance; it was an heirloom from Ma Kouzi's mother, passed down to the daughter-in-law who was in charge of the household.
Niu Dajiao had always wanted it, but Ma Kouzi couldn't bear to part with it, saying that since they were husband and wife, it was fine for him to keep it.
But now it's worn on a bright red wrist.
"I'll kill you, you little bitch!" Niu Dajiao, disregarding his shoes, lunged at Hongyan.
Hongyan didn't dodge and rushed forward to fight Niu Dajiao.
Hongyan's attitude today gave Ye Yunniang a very strange feeling. She couldn't quite put her finger on it, so she pulled Xu Erlei, who was eager to watch the commotion, and Li Ping, who looked exhausted and wanted to lie down, towards home.
"Aunt Yunniang, I'll just peek through the doorway." Xu Erlei, who inherited Liang Maimiao's love for watching these things, didn't want to go into the yard.
"There's nothing interesting about women fighting," Ye Yunniang said, pulling Xu Erlei into the courtyard.
"It's really good to watch." Xu Erlei enjoyed watching women fight; the grabbing, pinching, and scratching were both entertaining and practical. He had used these moves last time to fight back against the older students who had bullied him.
"No." Ye Yunniang's attitude was firm. "Are you hungry? I'll go get you some red date cake."
As she spoke, Ye Yunniang bolted the door shut and went to the kitchen to bring out a plate of red date cake.
Between eating and having fun, eating is naturally more important.
Xu Erlei's mind quickly shifted, and he and Li Ping ate red date cakes and looked at picture books inside the house.
Small picture books have become very popular first-class reading materials in the past two years.
A thin booklet that tells stories in the form of pictures.
Even if you can't read, you can understand the meaning by looking at the picture.
All three children in the family love watching it.
Ye Yunniang and Cai Damei both doted on their children, buying them new items whenever the shop had any. Bao Min would also deliver things from time to time. The Li family's picture albums needed their own bookshelf.
Ye Yunniang came to the door and opened it a crack to look at the situation outside.
At this moment, after a struggle, Hongyan was no match for Niu Dajiao and was pinned down and beaten.
Soon, Hongyan collapsed, clutching her stomach and screaming, "Ah—my stomach...it hurts...my stomach hurts so much..."
"She's bleeding!" someone screamed.
"Go quickly and call the doctor."
“Niu Dajiao can’t be hit anymore, Hongyan has miscarried.”
"Red!"
"Doctor, go find a doctor quickly."
...
The onlookers rushed over and separated the two.
Snap!
Niu Dajiao was slapped.
"You dare hit me?" Niu Dajiao covered her face, looking at the person who hit her in disbelief.
“Ma Kouzi, I’ve been married to you for 30 years and given you two sons. You hit me for a bitch, Ma Kouzi, you have no conscience!” Niu Dajiao shouted.
Slap! Slap!
Ma Kouzi slapped Niu Dajiao twice more, saying, "Behave yourself. If you keep causing trouble, I'll divorce you."
Niu Dajiao was so badly beaten that she lost her balance and fell to the ground. She was already heartbroken, and then she heard that she was going to be divorced.
Niu Dajiao felt a surge of hatred and got up to rush towards Ma Kouzi.
Losing control of the direction for a moment, Niu Dajiao's head did not hit Ma Kouzi's belly, but instead hit his lower body.
"Ouch—" Ma Kouzi clutched his lower body and screamed in agony.
When the men watching saw Ma Kouzi's appearance, they instinctively clenched their legs and moved away from Niu Dajiao.
This woman is too ruthless; she's going to ruin her own man.
"Big-Foot Niu, I'm definitely going to divorce you!" Ma Kouzi's voice changed tone.
Niu Dajiao knew she had done something wrong, so she shrank back and didn't dare to talk back.
"Dad, what are you saying?" Ma Hui ran over and helped Ma Kouzi up. "I'll help you see a doctor."
"Hurry up and go." Ma Kouzi pressed his entire body against Ma Hui.
"The doctor is here! The doctor is here! Make way..." someone shouted from outside the crowd as the doctor entered carrying his medicine kit.
"Doctor, please take a look at my husband." Niu Dajiao was very worried that something had happened to Ma Kouzi.
"Let's look at Hongyan first." A woman who was more familiar with Hongyan came over and tugged at the doctor's sleeve.
"Doctor, come and see Hongyan quickly!" Ma Kouzi shouted, urging the doctor to see Hongyan as well.
These words angered Niu Dajiao again. "What's a little injury to a woman?" she said, grabbing the doctor's other sleeve and refusing to let go. "I hope that bitch bleeds to death."
"Ma Kouzi is fine, but Hongyan is a human life."
