Chapter 698: A Hard Life



昨晚袁四喜独自睡到半夜,想着别人家的婆娘都能睡,只有自家这个丧门星,娶回来不能动,这才气得火遮眼,跑过来揍了周园园一顿,揍完后,袁四喜就走了,哪里管周园园有没有受伤?

"If you don't want to cook, then sleep with me." Yuan Sixi reached out to pull Zhou Yuanyuan's clothes, looking a little impatient. A man in his thirties marrying an eighteen-year-old woman should have been a happy thing, but unfortunately, three years had passed, and Yuan Sixi gradually lost his patience with a woman who could only be beaten but not eaten.

Seeing her collar ripped open, Zhou Yuanyuan shouted anxiously, "Yuan Sixi, if you're not afraid of death, come on. I've killed my father, mother, and brothers, so I don't mind killing a few men."

Hearing Zhou Yuanyuan's cry, Yuan Sixi's hand stopped. Yuan Sixi's family was a single-line inheritance, and he was really afraid that Zhou Yuanyuan would "kill" him.

It was precisely because of Zhou Yuanyuan's "hard life" that Yuan Sixi hesitated, not daring to take her body. Rural people were very superstitious, and no one would dare marry a woman with a life as tough as Zhou Yuanyuan's. When Gu Dahua introduced her to Yuan Sixi, Zhou Yuanyuan's father had died, but her mother was still alive, and her brother Zhou Jiasheng was also well. On the night before the wedding, Zhao Yunxiang died suddenly. The Zhou family didn't dare tell Yuan Sixi, fearing he would "return the girl."

Zhou Yuanyuan had been reluctant to this marriage from the beginning. On the wedding day, she told Yuan Sixi that today was the day her mother died, and she would observe six months of mourning for Zhao Yunxiang. This frightened Yuan Sixi so much that he didn't even dare enter the bridal chamber. This incident served as a wake-up call for Zhou Yuanyuan. From then on, whenever Yuan Sixi had a lustful thought, Zhou Yuanyuan would threaten him with her own death.

"Damn it, you bitch, you're just a thing I bought for 500 yuan. I don't care if you're in pain or not. Hurry up and get up and cook for me, or I'll beat you to death!" Yuan Sixi glared at Zhou Yuanyuan, raising his fist and threatening her. If he didn't have a blind mother at home who needed Zhou Yuanyuan's care, Yuan Sixi would have wanted to "sell" Zhou Yuanyuan and marry another wife long ago.

Unfortunately, Zhou Yuanyuan had been beaten by Yuan Sixi every other day for the past few years, and the abuse was too severe, and she had long lost her former beauty. Yuan Sixi's family didn't have much oily food, and Zhou Yuanyuan was not getting enough nutrition. She was also exhausted all day long. Not only did she have to do housework, but she also had to serve Yuan Sixi's blind mother and couldn't neglect the work in the fields. Zhou Yuanyuan was already exhausted and sick.

It was obvious that Zhou Yuanyuan couldn't be sold at a high price. Yuan Sixi had already spent all his family's money on the "astronomical bride price" of 500 yuan to marry Zhou Yuanyuan. Not only that, Yuan Sixi also owed more than 300 yuan in foreign debt. Before these debts were paid off, even if Yuan Sixi "sold" Zhou Yuanyuan, no woman would be willing to marry him.

In order to have this free labor at home, Yuan Sixi could only endure his body's desire and beat Zhou Yuanyuan from time to time to vent his anger.

Yuan Sixi's fists fell on Zhou Yuanyuan like raindrops.

This time, Zhou Yuanyuan did not scream in pain. She bit her lips, held her head with both hands, curled up her body, and let the fists fall on her.

After Yuan Sixi got tired of fighting, he spat and walked out the door.

Zhou Yuanyuan curled up motionless on the ground, her life or death unknown.

"Ah!!!" Wen Ziqing was so angry that his eyes were about to burst. How dare this man treat his Yuanyuan like this? He had always carefully cared for his little girl, so why should anyone else have the right to touch her?

Wen Ziqing had remembered this Yuan Sixi. He would not let him go. Even if he didn't turn Yuan Sixi's body into ashes, he would make him taste the pain of being beaten every three days and every five days.

Wen Ziqing wanted to go in and comfort the bruised woman. Although Zhou Yuanyuan was no longer beautiful, in Wen Ziqing's heart, she was still the same smart and cunning little girl he first met, and she made his heart beat.

Unfortunately, Wen Ziqing could not break the barrier of time and space and could only watch helplessly.

After a while, an old woman in her seventies walked into the room. Seeing Zhou Yuanyuan lying on the ground, she quickly squatted down and pressed various parts of Zhou Yuanyuan's body.

"What a sin! That bastard Yuan Sixi hit me so hard that a bone was broken." The old woman muttered to herself, then carefully picked up Zhou Yuanyuan from the ground. She wanted to put her back on the bed, but hesitated.

"Forget it! This child is destined to be with me, so let him go to my house to recuperate! If he continues like this, I don't know if he will be beaten to death by Yuan Sixi." The old woman picked up Zhou Yuanyuan and walked out the door.

"Si Xi? Si Xi, kid, did you hit Yuan Yuan again?" In the yard, an old woman waved her hands around, as if trying to catch something.

"Mother Si Xi, your Si Xi has broken all of Yuan Yuan's bones. I'll take Yuan Yuan home to live with you for a while. If you continue like this, Yuan Yuan will be beaten to death by Si Xi." Seeing the blind mother Si Xi, the old woman holding Zhou Yuan Yuan, her originally hunched back slowly straightened up, and her whole temperament had obviously changed a lot from before.

"Excuse me, Aunt Eight, excuse me, excuse me." Si Xi Niang nodded hurriedly. It seemed that this hunchbacked old woman still held a certain status in the village.

"Mother Si Xi, don't blame me for speaking harshly. If Si Xi beats Yuan Yuan like this again, I will definitely call the whole village and drive your family out." After the old woman said this, she carried Zhou Yuan Yuan into her house next door.

Si Xi's mother stood blankly in the yard, saying, "No, no, Si Xi can't do that!"

The scene shifted to a large city. Wen Ziqing quickly realized it was H City, the city where he had first met Zhou Yuanyuan in his previous life.

On the rooftop of a building, Zhou Yuanyuan, wearing the uniform of a shopping mall cleaner, stared coldly at the man named Yuan Sixi.

Yuan Sixi said to Zhou Yuanyuan with a playful smile, "You bitch, you're so capable that you ran away from the village to work in a big city. Hurry up and take out your money, or I'll make you pay."

"No." Zhou Yuanyuan responded indifferently.

"No? Don't you get a salary every month? Do you use your salary to support a strange man?" Yuan Sixi's eyes widened again when he heard Zhou Yuanyuan say she had no money.

"I earned my own money, so of course I spent it myself." Zhou Yuanyuan turned her head away, seemingly in no mood to even glance at Yuan Sixi. Zhou Yuanyuan hadn't expected Yuan Sixi to be so accurate in finding her. Even though she was hiding in H City, thousands of miles away from Taoshu Village, Yuan Sixi was still able to find her. Was it fate that didn't leave her any chance of survival?
