Feng Dachun spent two days dealing with the household registration transfer issue, so Li Jinfeng went to the mountains alone to cut Ula grass.
She didn't know how much she had harvested, but taking it to the Licun Production Team should be enough to last everyone several winters.
Of course, she would also bring back a bundle of Ula grass every day. The people in the Feng family just thought that she did little work in the city and could not do much work. They never suspected that the amount of Ula grass she brought back did not match the time she went out.
In the evening, Li Jinfeng was carrying a bundle of Ula grass and walking back to Feng Dachun's home.
Suddenly, when she passed by a house's yard, she heard a burst of ugly shouting and cursing.
"Bitch, who the hell are you? You've been married to my son for so many years, and you can't even produce a child. Hens still lay eggs, so why did our Cao family marry someone like you who can't lay eggs?"
The moment the shouting and cursing rang out, it was accompanied by the sound of sticks hitting flesh.
A woman's miserable cry came over, "Mom, I was wrong! I was wrong! Please, don't hit me, don't hit me..."
"I won't beat you? People who are the same age as Awang already have five sons. What about you? You haven't even farted in all these years. You... I'm going to beat you to death today!"
The woman's curses became more and more unpleasant, and the sound of the sticks falling became louder and louder.
Li Jinfeng frowned and wanted to speak out to stop them, but this was not a place she was familiar with.
Moreover, it is not easy for outsiders to interfere in the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
She can stop it for a while, but she can't stop it forever!
I sighed and was about to leave when I heard the woman's screams one after another!
Li Jinfeng finally couldn't hold it in.
"Auntie, I'm a little thirsty. Can I borrow a bowl of water from your house?" Li Jinfeng shouted to the old woman in the yard.
The old woman immediately stopped hitting the man and looked up at Li Jinfeng.
Seeing that Li Jinfeng looked like a stranger, he suddenly hesitated.
As the saying goes, don't air your dirty laundry in public.
The old woman, Ma Zhaodi, chose this time to beat her daughter-in-law because she thought that every household was cooking and no one was sleeping, so she would come out to watch the fun.
But now, being caught in the act, Ma Zhaodi didn't know whether she should send the man away or do something to make amends.
At the same time, the woman who was beaten by Ma Zhaodi also raised her head.
Zhao Hongling, who was beaten to the point of being almost broken apart, met Li Jinfeng's gaze, and there was suddenly a hint of panic in their eyes.
Li Jinfeng was also surprised.
She recognized the beaten woman as Zhao Hongling, Feng Dachun's close friend.
At that time, Feng Dachun talked to her for a short while and then asked Zhao Hongling if her mother-in-law was still beating her.
Li Jinfeng remembered clearly that Zhao Hongling shook her head to deny it.
And at that time, she noticed the scars on Zhao Hongling's hands.
She had thought that Zhao Hongling and her mother-in-law were just having a simple disagreement, but she had not expected that things would become so serious.
"Um...girl, why haven't I seen you before?" Ma Zhaodi finally decided to make a big deal out of a small matter.
"Aunt, I am... a friend of Feng Dachun, the daughter of Feng Laoshuan. I went out to cut some Ula grass today and was really thirsty. I happened to stop at your house, so I plucked up the courage to ask for a drink of water. What do you think...?" Li Jinfeng looked at Ma Zhaodi with a smile.
In fact, it doesn’t matter to Li Jinfeng whether she drinks water or not.
