"You bitch!" As soon as Liu approached, she suddenly pinched her. Not wanting Liu to feel pain, she slapped her in the face and then held her down and slapped her several times in the face.
It was good enough that she could come to take care of her, but the old woman even dared to strangle her. Liu's anger was ignited and she was about to hit her again when the eldest brother heard the noise outside and rushed in.
In the past, Liu would have been beaten, but it would have been in vain. But today was different. They were both daughters-in-law, but Gao hadn't come, so she was forced to come by the eldest brother. She was even pinched by Meng, and the eldest brother hit her. She threw herself out, offering her head to the eldest brother, asking him to beat her to death if he could. If he couldn't, she would divorce him!

She hoped that Liu would make a big fuss and curse more harshly, and she was happy to watch the fun.
"Oh, why are you back now, Laoliu?" Seeing Laoliu coming in, Gao greeted him with a smile and glanced at his hands.
In the past, when Lao Liu came back, he would always bring some snacks for Ding Gui and Ding Quan, but today his hands were empty, so she couldn't help but stop.
