Chapter 175: Resolutely Oppose Domestic Violence
Yu's mood was like a flower blooming in spring, bright and cheerful.
She gently stroked the copper coins beside the tea and couldn't help sniffing. After walking for a while with Gu Yuexuan, she suddenly spoke in a subtle tone: "Xuanxuan, I witnessed a strange thing while waiting for Minfei."
Gu Yuexuan responded absentmindedly: "Oh? What happened?"
Yu turned around and pointed to the patch of untied vegetable leaves not far behind her. She said in a quiet voice, "There was a man who seemed to have lost his mind due to drunkenness. He actually punched and cursed his wife in public. Can you guess what happened next?"
"What happened next?"
"His wife was a pork seller. She had strong arms and immense strength, and she actually gave him a lesson."
Gu Yuexuan was unable to understand what kind of insight Yu had gained from this incident. She blinked in confusion, not knowing how to respond appropriately.
Yu pondered for a long time, feeling disgusted with his own wild ideas, but at the same time, he couldn't help but feel that it might really be feasible.
She gently tugged at Gu Yuexuan's sleeve, suppressing her shame as she whispered, "What do you think? If I could practice martial arts with Tu Subo and the others, then if your second uncle loses control and attacks me again in the future, would I be able to punch him back?"
Even if she can't fight back, she can ensure that Tu Suye won't dare to use violence against her again, right?
Tu Suye is just a weak scholar. In a real fight, he may not be much stronger than a woman.
Once this thought took root, it grew like a stubborn weed, impossible to stop. Yu's heart was pounding wildly, and she felt overwhelmed with guilt.
She is well versed in women's virtues and teachings, and the saying that the husband is the head of the wife is also a teaching from ancient sages.
If she really put it into practice, wouldn't she be no different from a common woman?
Before Gu Yuexuan could respond, Yu smiled bitterly and shook her head: "Forget it, forget it, I just said it on a whim, don't take it seriously."
"Why not take it seriously?"
Gu Yuexuan suppressed her surprise at Yu's awakening and said with a smile, "If verbal communication is ineffective, then we should speak with our fists. Why not?"
She sighed at Yu's astonished gaze, "In my opinion, we should all learn martial arts with the children."
In the face of domestic violence, bravely fight back against the shameless perpetrators.
When faced with bullying by thugs, he dared to stand up.
If someone hits us with fists, we can also fight back with our feet. This is a natural thing to do. Why should we be shy about it?
Yu first pursed her lips and smiled, but after smiling, her expression became complicated and unpredictable.
She looked at Gu Yuexuan hesitantly and said softly, "Xuanxuan."
Gu Yuexuan responded: "Huh? What's going on?"
Tu Subo started practicing martial arts at the age of three. It was a martial art that was passed down one-on-one and hand-in-hand under the personal guidance of his grandfather and father.
"During his time in Kyoto, he was a street thug, capable of single-handedly defeating over ten men. He even beat several wealthy young men who had grudges against him, leaving them with broken legs and lame legs. By the time they were carried home, they were unrecognizable."
In other words, Tu Subo's fighting ability is unparalleled.
Gu Yuexuan couldn't help but wonder why Tu Subo was suddenly mentioned. Yu hesitated for a long time before finally speaking earnestly, "Tu Subo is completely different from your uncle, who only took out his anger on his wife and children. Even now, with his cultivation, he's definitely not your uncle's equal."
The color instantly drained from Gu Yuexuan's face.
Yu continued to persuade him earnestly, "However, Tu Subo has inherited his father's character. Although he is not very close to outsiders, he has a very deep relationship with his wife. As long as he remains like this in the future, you don't have to worry about it."
"You don't have to think about this anymore."
She might even try to learn.
Gu Yuexuan was completely speechless and didn't know how to respond.
Yu continued to talk to herself, "I don't know if I can learn it, but I heard that Aunt Nie can compete with her husband at home. Although she has no martial arts training, she seems to have never been defeated."
"Many couples in the village resort to fighting when they argue, and the outcome seems unclear. If your uncle fights again next time, can I give it a try?"
A family dispute that she witnessed inadvertently seemed to open the door to a new world for Yu. New strategies that she had never dared to imagine after being a lady for half her life began to emerge like a spring.
Gu Yuexuan was stunned and speechless. When she returned home after shopping, she looked at Yu's thoughtful face and couldn't help but feel a little amused.
She hates domestic violence.
However, it doesn't seem completely unacceptable if the oppressed are given a chance to fight back?
Under the family rules of the Tu Su family, conflicts between husband and wife are destined to be difficult to reconcile. If it really comes to the point where they can no longer respect each other, then it seems that there is nothing wrong in letting the party who initiates the violence suffer a little?
In other words, if Tu Suye himself does not behave properly, then even if he suffers a blow, it is his own fault.
Gu Yuexuan couldn't help laughing and walked into the house to change clothes. Just as she finished, Tu Subo pushed the door open and walked in.
Tu Subo narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at the coat hanging on the hanger, and his eyebrows couldn't help but twitch slightly: "Xuanxuan, did you encounter any difficult problems when you went out today?"
Gu Yuexuan was slowly pulling out the dagger from her waist. She paused for a moment, a hint of self-deprecating smile on her lips: "How could there be any trouble?"
Seeing that she didn't want to talk more, Tu Subo calmly moved his eyes away from the cuffs of her coat.
On the way home, Gu Yuexuan carefully checked herself, removing as much as possible any trace that might reveal herself to Tu Subo. However, upon closer inspection, she could still spot tiny red marks lingering in the seams of her sleeves.
That is the trace left by the flying chili powder.
Such details may not be surprising to ordinary people, but Tu Subo clearly remembers the last time Gu Yuexuan sprinkled the chili powder.
He took a deep breath and approached slowly. He held Gu Yuexuan's shoulders tightly with one hand and pinched the back of her neck lightly with the other hand as if catching a kitten.
Gu Yuexuan instinctively leaned back slightly and was about to scold, but Tu Subo frowned and directly grabbed her.
His fingers even pressed gently on the parts of her body that might be injured, with just the right amount of force, while he kept an eye on the possible expression of pain that might appear on Gu Yuexuan's face.
Gu Yuexuan was turned over by him and laughed so hard that she almost couldn't breathe. She put her hands on her waist and forced Tu Subo, who wanted to squat down to check his legs, to stand up straight.
"I told you it was okay, why are you still so nervous?"
Tu Subo was still skeptical and hugged his arms tightly: "Are you really okay?"
"Why would I lie to you?"
Gu Yuexuan smiled helplessly, gently tapped the blood-stained dagger on his chest, and laughed muffledly: "I just went to buy some items, not to fight with anyone on purpose, how could anything happen?"
