She had always been curious about where the money came from, but she didn't dare to ask Liu Shixian. Her mother Liu Cuifen had taught her not to ask about a man's affairs outside. She would tell you what she should tell you. If she couldn't tell you, it would be useless to ask.
That day, Liu Shixian came back later than usual and smelled of alcohol.
As soon as he got home, he saw that his mother's clothes had not been washed and were placed on a stool, so he beat her up without thinking.
That was the first time he had ever laid hands on her, and he didn't even listen to her explanation.
How do you wash clothes on a rainy day?
From that day on, Liu Shixian seemed like a completely different person.
When he was in front of people during the day, he was still as harmless as before.
But who could have thought that it was this kind of person who could beat someone to death behind their back when he went mad.
He beats you when he has a reason, and he beats you when he has no reason. He beats you when he is in a bad mood, and he beats you when he is in a good mood. He beats you when he is drunk, and he beats you when he has nothing to drink. Anyway, you never know when a belt, a stick, a bench, or a bottle will appear on your body. He also has some unknown dirty habits. Sometimes, Ruan Mianmian's injuries make her too embarrassed to talk about them.
And her mother-in-law, when she saw herself being beaten, chose to stand by and watch.
Even when Liu Shixian didn't hit her hard enough, she would still hand him tools.
Ruan Mianmian didn't know why good days suddenly turned out like this.
The beatings and scoldings only stopped temporarily when she became pregnant for the first time.
Liu Shixian knelt in front of her and admitted his mistake, saying that he would never hit her again. He couldn't control himself because his business was not going well, he lost money, and he felt uncomfortable.
It will never happen again. The country is already carrying out reform and opening up. They don't have to do business in secret anymore. They can do it freely in the future.
Ruan Mianmian forgave him for the sake of the child.
It was also at this time that the Ruan family came up to him. Perhaps because the Liu family was about to have a successor, Liu Shixian was unusually generous during this period.
He pulled the Ruan family members and asked them to follow him and drink some soup.
Maybe Ruan Mianmian was never destined to have a good life in her previous life. When she was in the middle and late stages of her pregnancy, her mother-in-law pushed her and she rolled down the stairs.
Of course the child was not saved, a fully grown baby boy.
Of course Liu Shixian would not get angry at his mother, all his anger was accepted by Ruan Mianmian.
She had just lost her child and was locked up in the basement of her home.
This was the new house built when Liu Shixian earned his first pot of gold. At that time, Ruan Mianmian was very curious why they had to build a basement.
Later she found out that it was built specially for her.
After spending some time in the basement living a life worse than death, she was released.
At this time, Liu Shixian should be very successful in business, and she should have benefited from it as well.
Liu Shixian went home less and less frequently, but the conditions at home were getting better and better.
Without Liu Shixian torturing her at home, the physical pain was reduced, but the mental torture from her mother-in-law became more and more severe.
The family's conditions clearly allow for the hiring of someone to help, but her mother-in-law doesn't want to, so Ruan Mianmian has to do all the household chores herself.
Her mother-in-law can also make daily chores like washing clothes, cooking and cleaning come in different ways.
You have to kneel down and mop the floor by hand, and the toilet must be cleaned every two days. The bed sheets and quilt covers must be changed every three days, and they must be washed by hand...
However, when she needed the support of her family the most, her biological mother Liu Cuifen came and joined her mother-in-law in finding fault with her.
It was just to make her and Liu Shixian, mother and son, happy, so that they could give the Ruan family more resources.
Not only that, the things Liu Shixian bought for her for face were basically taken away by her mother after a short time. She said that she couldn't use them anyway, and Liu Shixian would buy her new ones in the future, so she took the old ones away. It just so happened that Ruan Jiabao's wife didn't have these yet.
She couldn't remember how many years she had spent like this.
As Liu Shixian returned home more and more often, her nightmare began again.
It was also from that time that she heard Qin Zheng's name from Liu Shixian.
Less than half a year later, Liu Shixian's company was in a complete mess. At this time, perhaps because he wanted to save the company, he was too busy to abuse her.
Until one day, she accidentally overheard the conversation between Liu Shixian and his mother. The company went bankrupt, and not only did they lose their source of income, but they had to pay a large sum of money.
Liu Shixian wanted to flee abroad, but before that, he needed to get another sum of money.
At that time, Ruan Mianmian realized that Liu Shixian had bought her a huge insurance policy two years ago, and it was about to expire.
He wanted to get the money and then run away.
Ruan Mianmian was so frightened that she made a noise, allowing Liu Shixian and his mother to find her.
She wanted to run, but her body's conditioning from years of abuse wouldn't allow her to escape.
And she was locked up in that basement again.
This time, Liu Shixian did not beat her for the first time. He just kept her alive by feeding her a bowl of porridge a day.
She knew that when the time came, he would kill her without hesitation.
While waiting to die in the basement, she recalled the interview with the private female entrepreneur she had seen before.
She really envied her. She was inferior and yearning.
If only she could be like her.
Ruan Mianmian remembered that the female entrepreneur also said in the interview that your destiny is in your own hands and your own choice is the key.
It was also because of this sentence that Ruan Mianmian became determined to die together with that bastard Liu Shixian.
She found a baseball bat among the sundries in the basement. When Liu Shixian brought him food again, she hid behind the door. The moment Liu Shixian pushed open the door, Ruan Mianmian used all her strength to hit him on the head.
She wasn't sure if he was dead, but she didn't want him to live any longer. She broke the bowl and used the broken pieces to cut his artery.
Looking at the bastard lying on the ground covered in blood, Ruan Mianmian burst into tears without any restraint, and then burst into laughter.
Her crying attracted her mother-in-law.
The old lady was so terrified by the scene before her that by the time she wanted to rush over to cause trouble, she had already died.
Thinking of this, Ruan Mianmian's tears slid down the corners of her eyes.
Although she was weak, vulnerable, cowardly and wronged in her previous life, fortunately she was not completely useless in the end.
