In the end, it's all because your son is too cowardly. So what if your wife looks down on you? She treats you like an ancestor even if she can beat you. No matter what, that wife is at least ten thousand times better than the current one.
Leng You in front didn't even turn his head and walked straight to the gate of Leng's house.
He stopped and slowly raised his head, the dark mist in his eyes gradually thickened.
This so-called home of hers in her previous life had never truly belonged to her for a single day, yet she had belonged here for sixteen years.
For sixteen years, she was regarded by everyone in the Leng family as a money-loser, a jinx, and a punching bag who was worse than a dog and allowed to be abused.
Anyone in the Leng family could insult and beat her at will. Even the youngest daughter of Leng Shugen and Ma Dahua, named Xiaodanzi, who was four years younger than her, enjoyed beating her when she was only two or three years old.
Not to mention their son Goushengzi, who bullied her, teased her, and beat her at any time and anywhere and for no reason.
Especially Ma Dahua. In all her memories, there were only various ways that Ma Dahua abused her.
Not only was she only given leftovers, she was never allowed to sit at the table to eat, even during the Spring Festival.
She had never worn new clothes in the sixteen years she had been in the Leng family. When she was young, she wore clothes that were left over from other children and were so torn that they could not be torn any more.
When she was a little older and felt ashamed, in order to no longer wear clothes that exposed her body, she had to pick up the torn clothes thrown away by her family members or even strangers, and then come back to alter and mend them before wearing them again.
No matter how hot the summer was, Ma Dahua would drive her out to cut grass or herd cattle. Several times she almost died of heatstroke.
In the cold winter, Ma Dahua would still drive her out to collect manure and firewood. If she didn't bring any back, she wouldn't even have leftovers to eat.
When Leng Tiezhu and Leng Shugen went to work in the fields, Goushengzi was only less than a year younger than her and was fat and big-eared, but they only let her follow them. Moreover, she was forced to do those farm work when she was only four years old. If she worked a little slower, she would be beaten and scolded by Ma Dahahua.
Not only does she have to finish her work outside, but when she gets home she also has to cook, clean the house, sweep the yard, feed the pigs and chickens, and wash clothes for the whole family... In short, she has to do almost all the housework by herself.
And Ma Dahua always found countless faults to beat her up.
Ma Dahua beat her very cruelly, using willow twigs, stove hooks, feather dusters, wooden sticks as thick as arms... She used whatever she saw, and her body was always covered with bruises and burns.
There were many times when if Bai Changpu hadn't held her back and examined her wounds and applied medicine to them, the infection alone would have cost her life.
There were also several times when Ma Dahua wanted to kill her, but Wen Jiuyue arrived in time to save her, otherwise she would have lost her life.
Even her biological father Leng Shugen never gave her a good look. When Ma Dahua was not around, it would be her biological father who acted as a thug.
One time, Leng Shugen suddenly got angry and kicked her away, causing her head to hit a rock and blood to flow all over the ground.
If she hadn't been lucky, she would have died on the spot.
The worst ones were Leng Tiezhu and Shi Sanyue. Many times when Leng Shugen and Ma Dahua beat her, it was these two old guys who added fuel to the fire.
And as she grew older, Leng You always felt that the lecherous grandfather looked at her with ill intentions.
Among all the members of the Leng family, perhaps only Leng Shugen and Ma Dahuasheng's eldest daughter Dadanzi had never abused her. On the contrary, she had secretly given her steamed bread several times.
Leng You felt that it was because she was not smart enough and didn't have the bad instinct of the Leng family.
All the things in the past life, like huge waves in the raging sea, rushed into the mind madly, as if to explode the human skull and the entire body, thus destroying both the body and the soul into ashes.
The fingers of Leng You's clenched fist had lost their color.
"My eldest...eldest...eldest granddaughter! Come in...come in...come in...ah!"
"ah!"
They had been standing five meters behind Leng You for a long time. As long as Leng You didn't move, Leng Tiezhu and the others didn't dare to move.
From behind they only saw Leng You, who had been keeping his head down, suddenly stop when he walked to the gate, then slowly raise his head and stare straight into the yard.
No one knew how long it had been, so long that even though the Leng family members were wearing cotton shoes, they could not withstand the erosion of the cold snow. Their feet were frozen as if they were scratched by a cat. Finally, Leng You lowered his head.
The four of them silently indicated with eyes that they wanted to push the people next to them out to die, but they just refused to stand up.
They couldn't just stay there like this. Even if the evil spirits didn't kill them, they would be frozen to death here. In the end, Leng Tiezhu could only speak tremblingly.
But before he could finish his trembling words, Leng You suddenly turned around.
The winter sun was shallow, and hitting the snow on the ground made it seem even more bleak and dull, and the air also felt a little depressing. However, it was not as eerie as the black mist that had condensed into balls in those dark eyes at some point.
The coldness that emanated from the gloom directly pierced through the four people's skin, flesh, bones and blood, penetrating into their bone marrow, insides, and limbs.
Along with Leng Tiezhu's screams, there were also the terrified shrieks of three other people.
Leng You seemed not to hear it. He slowly turned around and walked into the yard.
"Hey...big sister, you're back! Did you fall into the Ghost Valley? Dad and mom are just talking nonsense. You were eaten by the snake demon." Dadanzi rushed out of the house and saw Leng You with a somewhat empty look in his eyes. Although there was no closeness, there was no disgust either.
Leng You: “…”
There was no response.
"I'm glad you're back, big sister. When you're not at home, mom always asks me to light the fire and sweep the floor. It's so annoying." Big Egg was still talking to himself.
"Big Egg, you debt collector, what are you doing? Get back to the house!" Ma Dahua, who had been in extreme fear, was almost scared to death when she saw her eldest daughter running up to Leng You and talking to her.
Even though this brainless girl was not liked by herself, her husband and the whole family, she was still the flesh and blood of her body after ten months of pregnancy. The limited maternal love still made Mada Huasheng afraid that her daughter would be killed by the evil spirit.
"Mom, are you going to beat my eldest sister again? She hasn't worked for several days!" Dadanzi obediently turned around and went back to the house.
As long as she doesn't have to work, anything is fine.
"Uh...I..." Ma Dahua was so scared that she shrank behind Leng Shugen.
"Grand...grand...granddaughter, please go...into the house! It's...it's cold outside." Shi Sanyue's teeth were chattering.
Leng You: “…”
Still walking forward without any response. But...
Before he reached the door of the house, a pungent and foul smell hit him in the face. Although he looked expressionless, Leng You was actually vomiting continuously.
