For the first few years, things were alright. He would harbor resentment in his heart and curse out loud. When his anger flared up, he would slap her a few times. Xiaohua, feeling guilty, didn't dare to fight back.
Later, things gradually changed. It went from slapping people to pulling their hair and slamming their heads against the wall, and they became excited when they saw blood come out.
Then he started choking her throat more and more violently, and he felt a strange sense of pleasure watching Xiaohua's expression change.
Little Flower would cry for help and try to escape, but she was no match for a farmer. Besides, the land the village chief had given her was too remote, so no one could see or hear her.
Xiao Hua finally experienced the pain of being bullied. After much reflection, she began to change her strategy, trying to lower her profile and use her advantages to overcome Chen Xiaolong.
Chen Xiaolong was, after all, a young man, and he still had needs in some areas. This gave Xiaohua an opening, and she pretended that she might be pregnant and asked Chen Xiaolong to take her to town to see him.
Chen Xiaolong was unwilling to go to the town; a village doctor would suffice. He went out and asked a village doctor to come to his home. Upon arrival, the village doctor not only denied that she had a child but also charged her two cents for the house call.
Chen Xiaolong was furious and was about to take action when Xiaohua, who had already prepared a bucket of boiling water, poured it on him as he approached.
Chen Xiaolong screamed in pain from the burns, and Xiao Hua took the opportunity to escape and quickly locked the door to the main room from the outside.
Chen Xiaolong quickly splashed cold water on his face to relieve the pain, but it didn't seem to help much, and Chen Xiaolong started to panic.
He rushed to the door to try and open the main room door to find the village doctor, but the main room was locked from the inside, and he couldn't open it no matter how hard he shook it.
He then went to the inner room, jumped onto the heated kang (a traditional Chinese bed-stove), and found a window at the end of the kang. Chen Xiaolong kicked the window open and jumped out.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Hua had placed several mousetraps under the window. When Chen Xiaolong jumped down, his feet landed on the ground, and both his feet were caught in the mousetraps, causing him to scream in pain.
The loud scream strained his facial muscles, making the burned skin even more painful. Chen Xiaolong quickly covered his face with his hands.
No matter how painful it was, Chen Xiaolong had to pry open the mousetrap. He finally managed to pry it open, but his feet were so painful that he couldn't walk. He could only rest in the yard for a while.
This was exactly the result Xiaohua wanted. After all, she was a woman, and she couldn't compare to a man in terms of physical strength and energy, especially when it came to something as important as escaping.
Xiaohua fled to a small town near Chenjia Village, found an oxcart, gave it a dime, and asked it to take her to a big town so she could find her ex-husband.
When she found her ex-husband, she realized that things weren't as wonderful as she had imagined. It seemed that Xiaohua had been tormented by Chen Xiaolong over the past few years and was no longer the same person she was. Her ex-husband looked at her as if he had seen a ghost.
But because the woman Xiaohua described as having the beauty of an angel was Yan Xiaonan, her ex-husband suppressed his urge to drive her away and took her in.
Xiaohua had no way out. She knew this man despised her, but if she didn't follow him now, she would definitely be beaten to death if Chen Xiaolong found her.
Then use Yan Xiaonan to trick her ex-husband away, get him far away from here, and then see how things go to get rid of him.
Under her influence, her ex-husband finally became interested in Yan Xiaonan. Taking advantage of the large crowds during the Chinese New Year, he secretly went to Mushroom Village to investigate just how beautiful Yan Xiaonan was and how much she could be sold for.
The investigation yielded satisfactory results; the girl had distinct eyes and a clear nose, and her innocent appearance made her seem nothing like a village girl.
The ex-husband was satisfied and decided that he would have this woman accompany Yan Xiaonan to their old haunts, sell them both, and then run away.
Her ex-husband secretly sold all his belongings and put the money in cash, telling Xiaohua that once he sold Yan Xiaonan, the two of them could live a good life together.
So the two of them rented an oxcart and headed towards Mushroom Village. Not far from the village entrance, Xiaohua watched the oxcart while she went to check on the situation.
The first visit yielded no results; it was freezing cold, and everyone was shivering.
The second time I went there, it happened when the villagers' houses collapsed. There were many people there, and I saw Yan Xiaonan, but it was inconvenient for me to take action.
The third time I went there, I saw Yan Xiaonan come out of the courtyard and go to their school to deliver food.
He finally succeeded on the fourth attempt. Ye Chen'er had just reached Yan Xiaonan's door and was about to raise her hand to knock when he covered her mouth with a handkerchief from behind.
In less than a minute, Ye Chen'er closed her eyes, and Pai Huazi carried her on his back and hurried toward the oxcart.
After putting the person down on the oxcart, Xiaohua took off her hat and felt something was wrong. However, she hadn't seen Yan Xiaonan for many years. She guessed that she had changed a lot as she grew up and wasn't as pretty as she was when she was a child.
Besides, in the surrounding area, where else could you find such a beautiful village girl besides Yan Xiaonan?
After arriving at the train station in the oxcart, the ex-husband asked Xiaohua to watch over Yan Xiaonan while he went to the platform to buy train tickets, handing over a pre-prepared letter of introduction.
When the ticket seller saw that they were villagers from Wangjia Village, traveling to the city with their wife and child for medical treatment, he readily sold them three hard-seat tickets.
So the two returned the oxcart, got their deposit back, and helped Yan Xiaonan into the station. When the train arrived, they checked their tickets and boarded.
Along the way, they received countless sympathetic glances. The child was so sick, how much money would it cost for her parents to take her to see a doctor?
This child is blessed to have such good parents; even if he dies from illness, it will be a happy ending.
The train chugged along, and Xiaohua gradually relaxed, finally free from the perverted Chen Xiaolong.
After selling Yan Xiaonan, I'll figure out a way to swindle the money and then find a place to start a new life.
The two had their own ulterior motives, so they managed to get along peacefully. However, it was a hardship for Ye Chen'er, as whenever they noticed something was wrong with her, they would cover her mouth with a handkerchief.
Yan Ai Dang noticed this action while using the toilet. At first, she didn't pay much attention, as it's normal for family members to wipe their mouths with a handkerchief. However, after putting the handkerchief down, the person stopped moving, which was unusual.
He quickly told Yan Daqiang, who was in the sleeper berth, what he had discovered, and Yan Daqiang became alert.
Based on past experience, whenever this happens, it indicates that there are smugglers or other serious problems in the carriage.
Yan Daqiang, dressed in military uniform, was not suitable to go out and investigate. Yan Aidang stood up, thought for a moment, picked up a teacup, and walked towards the hard seat.
He walked very slowly, with a slight limp, making it seem as if there was something wrong with his feet. He walked all the way to the very front of the train, filled a teacup with hot water, and then slowly walked back.
When Yan Aidang got close to Xiaohua, his eyes suddenly narrowed as he saw a pair of shoes on the ground.
