Li Jinlong pondered for a long time, but in the end, he couldn't find an opportunity to curry favor with Fang Qiao.
Because children have limited energy, Tian Tian and An An got tired after playing jump rope for an hour. After politely thanking him, they turned around and went back to their room for a nap.
Once the door was closed, it wasn't appropriate for him, a grown man, to force his way in.
He had thought that Fang Qiao would come out and exchange a few polite words with him, but as soon as the two children entered the house, there was no sound from inside.
Li Jinlong craned his neck to peer inside, but saw nothing.
Under the blazing midday sun, with his stomach growling with hunger, Li Jinlong had worked for over an hour, only to find it all for nothing. When he finally left, he was somewhat resentful.
But when he returned to his father-in-law's house, he was met with a brutal beating from Cheng Yajun.
When Cheng Yajun was in a really bad mood, Li Jinlong suddenly bumped into him, becoming his punching bag.
The former close friends who used to hang out together all day, eating, drinking and having fun, have now become in-laws, and they can't stand each other anymore.
Cheng Hongmei, sobbing, tried to break up the fight, pleading with Cheng Yajun not to hit Li Jinlong. But Cheng Yajun slapped her across the face: "You're the one who came crying to our house to complain, and now you're the one crying and protecting us! I'm trying to help you get revenge, and you don't appreciate it at all. Since that's how it is, don't come back to your parents' house and get in our way! I'll pretend I don't have a sister like you!"
"Fine, we won't go back then! Do you think we want a brother as shameful as you?" Li Jinlong was equally defiant, grabbing Cheng Hongmei's arm and saying coldly, "Hongmei, let's go!"
Caught between her elder brother and husband, Cheng Hongmei was in a dilemma. Before she knew it, Li Jinlong had dragged her away.
Huang Yan stood at the door of the main room, wiping away tears, and complained, "Your sister finally came back to her parents' home, and you chased her away. Why don't you care about your sister?"
"I'm already dealing with my own mess, why would I care about her affairs if I didn't know how to get close to her?" Cheng Yajun was also angry: "Look at how shameless she is in front of Li Jinlong, practically begging to be humiliated. It makes me furious!"
He suddenly kicked the basin at his feet away.
Cheng Yajun kicked the bright red enamel basin against the courtyard wall, deforming it.
This washbasin was part of Jiang Moli's dowry when she married into the family, and it has been a piece of junk ever since.
Just like Jiang Moli lying in the inner room.
Jiang Moli's body was covered in bruises from Cheng Yajun's beating, and her face was swollen and swollen, with clear five-finger marks visible.
She sat on the bed, covering her son's mouth tightly with her hand, trying her best to prevent him from making a sound.
However, Cheng Yajun's commotion outside was so loud that the baby, who was not even a year old, was frightened and struggled in her arms, and the cries escaped through the crack in the door.
Jiang Moli looked towards the door with a look of despair, and sure enough, the door was kicked open the next second.
Cheng Yajun walked in, grabbed her hair, dragged her off the bed, and then punched and kicked her again.
The child left alone in bed cried even harder.
Cheng Yajun glared at him, his bloodshot eyes filled with malice. He clenched his fists, resisting the urge to hit the child on the head, and kicked Jiang Moli again.
Jiang Moli cried miserably, but Cheng Yajun was not moved in the slightest.
He did genuinely like Jiang Moli once.
He readily paid the exorbitant bride price, which was unique in the surrounding area, and he was never stingy when it came to snacks or gifts during holidays.
New clothes, new headscarves, new hair ties—things other families give to their new brides, he arranged for her long before he even married her.
As a result, because she failed to plan for Cheng Baidong's new house and also became lame, her attitude changed.
To annul the engagement, they turned their backs on each other.
It seems like all the friendship we had before was fake.
After they got married, she became more docile, but in the end, she let him pull this big move!
She cheated on him without a word, and even the child she had was an illegitimate child from outside the marriage!
Jiang Moli!
You can do it!
You're amazing!
Extreme anger caused him to lose his mind, and he became increasingly violent.
Who is the adulterer?
"explain!"
"Who is the adulterer?!"
Jiang Moli screamed in agony as she was beaten, but even at this moment, she kept her mouth tightly shut and didn't utter a single word about the adulterer's name.
Later, the commotion inside became too loud, and Huang Yan, fearing someone might die, rushed in to stop it: "Alright, alright, don't really hurt anyone. It's not worth losing your life for such a slut!"
"grandmother……"
The child on the bed saw Huang Yan, stretched out his arm towards her, and called out "Grandma" indistinctly.
Huang Yan's tears immediately fell.
After all, she had been looking after her grandson for a year, holding him in her arms every day. How could she suddenly lose all affection for him overnight just because she found out he wasn't her biological son?
She turned her face away: "Don't call me grandma, I'm not your grandma!"
They're all Jiang Moli!
She's done a terrible thing!
"Cry, cry, cry! Are you mourning?" Cheng Yajun yelled angrily at the child.
But the child couldn't understand words or facial expressions, so he cried even louder.
Cheng Yajun grabbed Jiang Moli's hair in frustration and forcibly lifted her face: "When are your family members coming? Hurry up and take this little bastard away! Don't let him get in my way! If you piss me off, I'll throw him into the river behind the village and drown him!"
"No, no!" Jiang Moli's eyes widened in terror as she pleaded, "My family is coming soon, please wait, please wait a little longer."
"Then shut him up!" Cheng Yajun reached out and pushed Jiang Moli away.
Jiang Moli fell to the ground, ignoring the pain, and scrambled back to the bed, pulling her son into her arms again and covering his mouth to stop him from crying.
The child was held in Jiang Moli's arms, his eyes still looking expectantly at Huang Yan.
Seeing this scene, Huang Yan couldn't help but shed tears again.
This child! How come it's not his son's child?!
Huang Yan's heartache goes without saying.
But to outsiders, it seems that, given how things have come to this, not a single member of her family, except for the toddler who is still learning to speak, is innocent.
It can only be said that evil people will be punished by evil people.
It's just a pity for that little child who can't even speak yet. If he had a choice, he certainly wouldn't want to be born into Jiang Moli's womb.
