But Li Juan did not despise him. Instead, she helped him back to her "home", a small house that smelled of mold.
Zhang Xi, who had been imprisoned for five days, had long lost his temper due to the torture, but when he saw Li Juan, his old illness immediately came back.
"What is this? Is it edible?" Zhang Xi cursed his wife and reached out to hit her out of habit, but he stumbled and fell to the ground.
The room fell silent. Zhang Xi struggled, "Bitch, hurry up and help me up!"
Li Juan looked at her struggling husband, and something in her heart was stirring, but she still stepped forward and helped the old man up.
Zhang Xi slapped her twice, cursing at her.
Li Juan remained silent.
The man she loved and feared seemed to have collapsed.
The reality the couple faced was that they needed Li Juan to work and earn money alone, and Li Juan could only do odd jobs with a very low income. Zhang Xi mentioned asking her son for money more than once, and Li Juan did ask him for money. They met several times, but Zhang Xiaoli seemed to dislike her and ran away every time he saw her, and Li Juan could not catch up with her.
Later, Zhang Xiaoli completely disappeared from the vicinity. Li Juan couldn't see him and felt a little dazed.
Zhang Xi still beat Li Juan whenever he lost his temper, once, twice... He didn't notice that his wife was already a little abnormal.
The lively son, healthy husband and happy family she expected were gradually drifting away from her. She had thought that everything would be fine once Zhang Xi came out, but she had not expected a day like this.
Finally, one time when Zhang Xi yelled at Li Juan to come over, Li Juan stood there without moving.
Zhang Xi was furious: "Are you deaf? Get over here!"
Li Juan looked at him intently, and the scenes of her being abused appeared in her mind. The furious old man gradually merged with the disabled man in front of her.
"I don't."
"What did you say! You bitch!" Zhang Xi was furious. If it weren't for this woman, if it weren't for her suggestion to move next door, he wouldn't be in jail! And he wouldn't become a disabled person!
"I don't want it!" Li Juan threw the thing in her hand to the ground. "I don't want it!"
"You!" Zhang Xi was a little panicked. He saw from his eyes that the woman was going crazy.
Li Juan kept muttering something, "We are a family, a family should be harmonious and whole, my husband loves me very much, and I have a lovely son..." She described the beautiful things in her heart.
Her condition made Zhang Xi a little panicked. For the first time, he felt that this submissive woman in front of him was a little scary.
Until Li Juan picked up the rusty kitchen knife.
"You, what are you going to do!" Zhang Xi really started to get scared.
"Lao Xiao, why do you want to find a mistress? Am I not good enough? Or am I not pretty enough?" Li Juan said softly, reaching out to tuck her hair behind her ears and showing a playful smile, "I love you so much."
"You, you are crazy, what are you doing?" Zhang Xi wanted to escape, but his legs were out of control and he fell to the ground as soon as he stood up.
"Before, when you were out playing cards and looking for women, I just thought that as long as you loved me, that was all that mattered." Li Juan approached slowly. "Now I realize that God is still very good to me."
"Your legs are broken, so you can't go out and look for women anymore." She squatted in front of Zhang Xi, pressed her face against his, a look of joy on her face, "If you like to hit me, I'll let you hit me, okay?"
"You lunatic!" Zhang Xi was really scared to death.
"Why are you still running? Our son did the same thing. He ran away without even looking back. Don't leave me behind."
The kitchen knife was raised high.
Zhang Xi's expression was distorted: "Help! Someone is killing me!"
