Chapter 507 I was scared to death
Her husband told her last night that she absolutely shouldn't get involved in this matter.
Their parents were clearly genuinely angry, and they couldn't afford to get involved and further anger them.

After leaving home in a state of great frustration, Chen Jianye wandered around outside like a headless fly.
As I walked, I unknowingly arrived at the door of the blue brick house. After a moment of hesitation, I decided to go inside.
Upon seeing Ma Xiulian, he paused, rubbing his hands together and stammering, "Mom, the Li family has never treated their daughters like human beings. Last time, Chunhua only went back for a month or two, and she was tortured to the point of being almost unrecognizable! If she goes back after the divorce, they might not even let her into the house. In this cold weather, it's really freezing at night, you see..."
Even though we're divorced, there's no need to send him back immediately. We can wait until spring when the weather is warmer.
Ma Xiulian had already guessed that Li Chunhua would stay and not leave, so there was no surprise on her face.
But the old man calmly said, "Third brother, go back and call the eldest brother and the other brothers. Wait at the village entrance, and we'll go to Old Li's house together."
"I want to go too!" Helian Jiao shouted in a loud, clear, childlike voice, clenching her little fists.
Go and make that old witch cry!
Ma Xiulian initially refused, but looking at her pink little fist, she thought of her divine power to summon lightning with a flick of her little finger.
So she smiled and changed her mind, saying, "Okay, our little darling will go too."
Chen Jianye hesitated and said, "Mom, isn't this a bit inappropriate?"
If the brothers forcibly sent Chunhua back to her parents' home, the people of the commune would definitely point fingers and gossip about it behind her back.
Ma Xiulian rolled her eyes at him, annoyed: "I sent the Li family to pick up my daughter!"
Family scandals should not be aired in public... Although everyone in the commune probably knows about it now, it's a different story to have them witness the spectacle firsthand!
She can't afford to lose face like that!
Moreover, the forty yuan in Wang Dahua's hand must be returned!
Chen Jianye was taken aback for a moment, then scratched his head sheepishly: "Okay, I'll go now."
After saying that, he turned around and went back into the old house to call for help.
After he left, Ma Xiulian reached out and hugged her granddaughter, whispering, "Sweetie, when we get to Old Li's house, you have to cooperate with Grandma..."
After listening with her big, dark eyes, Helian Jiao nodded reluctantly and said, "Okay, I'll listen to Grandma."
Seeing this, Ma Xiulian said with a proud and boastful expression, "Let them taste how powerful our little darling is. They'll be scared to death!"
Upon hearing this, Helian Jiao puffed out her chest with pride and confidence: "I'm the best!"
"Yes, our little darling is the best!"
After making her granddaughter happy, Ma Xiulian made her a bowl of milk powder before slowly carrying her towards the village entrance.
When they arrived at the village entrance, Chen Dazhu and his five sons were already there, and the family walked in a large group towards Old Li's house.
On the way, Chen Jianye asked with a face full of curiosity, "Mom, how do you plan to convince Yue and Lao Li's family to come and pick us up?"
Hearing this, everyone else looked over, including Chen Dazhu.
After all, everyone knows what kind of person Old Lady Li is—so mean and stingy—she definitely wouldn't want to support her divorced daughter who has returned home!
They still vividly remember the last time Li Chunhua went back to her parents' home and stayed for a month or two.
