Liu Sichun looked at everyone as if she were seeing several hungry wolves.
Snap—
"You dare to come back?!"
"Why didn't you die at He Dazhu's place?"
He Debing slapped Liu Sichun across the face.
Liu Sichun immediately felt a sharp pain, as if a huge rock had hit her.
Liu Sichun looked around at the people, all of whom were indifferent and showed no sympathy.
Zhao Lifen asked, "Second brother, what are you doing?"
"How could you hit someone in front of your granddaughter-in-law? What will your daughter-in-law think of you?"
"You two should go back to your room and settle your issues. Also, Guangyao brought her back this time, so you must keep a close eye on her."
"If she runs away again, you'd better find a way to compensate me for this 50,000 yuan yourself."
Although Zhao Lifen is He Debing's mother, she is very meticulous about money matters, keeping track of every single penny.
He Debing said repeatedly, "Okay, Mom, this time I will definitely keep a close eye on Liu Sichun and I will never let her run away again."
Li Momo, who was standing to the side, quickly recognized the situation of the He family.
Li Momo smiled and said, "Grandma is fine. It's only right for Uncle to discipline her, after all, Aunt did what she did."
Upon hearing Li Momo's words, Liu Sichun felt an overwhelming sense of despair. She instantly realized that her daughter-in-law was no good either.
"Don't just stand outside. I knew you were coming back, so I cooked a delicious meal for you myself." Zhao Lifang pulled He Guangyao into the house.
He Deyong's family surrounded He Guangyao and walked into the house, completely ignoring Liu Sichun.
He Debing grabbed Liu Sichun by the collar with one hand and dragged her into the cowshed next door.
He Debing picked up an iron chain and tied it around Liu Sichun's neck.
"You can sleep here tonight, and you don't need to eat dinner."
"I spent 50,000 yuan to buy you back, not so you could cause me trouble."
As he spoke, He Debing, still angry, slapped Liu Sichun across the face again.
"Don't even think about He Dazhu coming back to save you. Just wait a few days, and I'll make him pay."
Liu Sichun was like a corpse, her eyes lifeless, and she didn't care what He Debing was saying.
This has been the case for so many years, and it has all been deeply engraved in Liu Sichun's heart like a brand.
So when Liu Sichun heard He Dazhu say he would take her away, she felt as if fate was playing a cruel joke on her.
After finishing these tasks, He Debing ran to the brightly lit main house.
Inside the main house, the He family members flattered He Guangyao, praising his wife, Li Momo, as being as beautiful as an angel.
The family mingled and drank, enjoying the cured meat and wine they had bought from the street, chatting and laughing happily.
Liu Sichun, who was lying in the cowshed, heard and saw all of this clearly.
The cowshed was dimly lit and reeked of cow dung. Only a emaciated old cow kept Liu Sichun company.
Liu Sichun couldn't cry anymore, because she had run out of tears.
The sounds of He family's revelry in the main house were like knives, cutting into Liu Sichun's flesh piece by piece.
Over the years, the He family has never accepted her, not even her son.
Only Liu Sichun repeatedly accepted the fate arranged for her by the He family.
Liu Sichun saw a sky full of stars through the cowshed, but what she saw was not the twinkling starlight, but the bottomless darkness.
It's all fate!
Bad luck!
Everything is bad!!!
Thinking this, Liu Sichun felt utterly desperate.
Suddenly, Liu Sichun's gaze fell on a bottle of pesticide on the table.
Looking at the pesticides on the table, Liu Sichun felt that the pesticides were as bright as the stars in the sky.
This may be a relief for Liu Sichun.
For He Dazhu, who cared about himself and was determined to help himself escape, it was also a relief.
Using the dim yellow light from the cowshed, Liu Sichun crawled toward the pesticide.
Perhaps everything was arranged; the length of the chain binding Liu Sichun was just right so that she could reach the pesticide.
Liu Sichun held the pesticide tremblingly in her hand, her heart filled with fear.
Liu Sichun felt immense fear in the face of death, and she also felt immense fear in the face of life.
To live or to die, Liu Sichun pondered for a while, a fleeting thought that seemed to vanish in an instant.
The fear of living ultimately overcame the fear of death, and Liu Sichun finally twisted open the pesticide bottle cap.
"Dazhu, thank you!"
"If I hadn't been trafficked, would my life be different?"
Liu Sichun drank pesticide and collapsed onto a pile of cow dung, foaming at the mouth.
Pesticides were spilled all over the ground.
Old Niu, standing to the side, stared blankly at Liu Sichun lying on the ground, completely bewildered as to what had happened.
The old ox watched for a while, then lowered its head and fell into a deep sleep.
Inside the main house, the He family members were eating meat and drinking wine heartily. Those who didn't drink alcohol were drinking beverages, chatting and laughing.
He Guangyao said, "Grandma, your 80th birthday is in a few days. I came back this time to hold a grand birthday celebration for you."
Li Momo chimed in, "We came back this time to celebrate Grandma's birthday."
Zhao Lifen said with a smile, "As expected, only Yaowen remembers my birthday. It seems that Grandma's love for our Guangyao has not been in vain."
He Deyong's wife, Zhang Cuiping, immediately nudged him. He Deyong immediately realized what was happening.
He Deyong then said, "Mom, how could you say that?"
“We remember that too, but Guangyao beat us to it.”
"Cuiping and I were thinking about how to celebrate your birthday. Since we're going to do this, we can't just do it in a simple way. We have to make a big show of it."
"Anyway, with the 500,000 yuan compensation from my older brother, it's quite easy to throw a big birthday party."
He Deyong's words immediately alerted He Guangyao.
He Guangyao then said, "It seems that Third Uncle had no intention of celebrating Grandma's birthday at all."
"Otherwise, why would we use Grandma's money to celebrate her birthday? Isn't that ridiculous?"
He Debing, who was standing to the side, only knew how to drink and was already half-drunk and half-awake.
He mumbled incoherently, "Son is right, your third uncle is after that 500,000."
Hearing He Debing say that.
He Deyong suddenly flew into a rage.
"Second brother, what are you saying?"
"How could I have said that for my brother's 500,000? I was definitely saying it to wish our mother a happy birthday."
"Just eat properly, why are you arguing?"
“If Guangyao hadn’t come back today, I wouldn’t have been willing to take these out for you to eat,” Zhao Lifen said with a serious expression.
Hearing Zhao Lifang say this, He Guangyao breathed a sigh of relief and looked at his third uncle with a mocking expression.
He Deyong's face immediately darkened...
