Is there more to the story behind the anchor's statement?
[No way, could she be like Zhao Cuiyun?]
Suddenly I didn't feel sorry for her anymore.
Uh... I'll observe for a while before taking sides.
“We treated her well, so how could we be the ones who drove her crazy? Host, look at me, you can tell I’m an honest person.”
“From the time she entered the family, I treated her better than my own daughter. I gave her meat to eat and soup to drink first, and I fattened her up.”
When Li Lian saw those eerie eyes on the screen, her heart skipped a beat. She quickly retorted, crying out that she was an honest person.
Of course, she didn't dare to speak too loudly, for fear that Yao Fang outside would break down the door and find her.
She could stall for as long as possible; perhaps the police would arrive soon, or the livestreamer in front of her could help her through this ordeal.
If she survives this ordeal, she will definitely not let that bitch Yao Fang get away with it!
"What you call good food and drink is just giving her thin porridge. If she doesn't serve you or your son well, you'll make her eat swill," Jiang Yuan exposed.
Of all Li Lian's possessions, her mouth was probably the only truly stubborn thing.
She knew perfectly well how she felt about Yao Fang.
"As for whether she's better to her than your own daughter, that's hard to say. After all, you even sold your own daughter to raise enough money to buy a wife for your son," Jiang Yuan continued.
Li Lian's face changed drastically, but it couldn't be seen in the dimly lit cabinet; only a blurry outline could be made out.
[How could someone sell their own daughter? How heartless!]
[It's the 21st century, and people are still selling their daughters to buy wives for their sons?]
【Heartless+.】
"I... I had no choice. I didn't want this either, but I can't support two people."
"Giving it away is the same as selling it, so I might as well sell it and make some money to supplement my household income."
“I know it’s wrong to do this. I haven’t been able to eat or sleep well since I sold my daughter. I keep thinking about her. But what can I do? She’s now someone else’s wife and she’s doing well. How can I bring her back and ruin her happiness?”
Li Lian reacted quickly, tears streaming down her face, her expression full of regret.
“You sold your daughter when she was only thirteen years old.”
"She became someone else's wife at the age of thirteen and gave birth to her first child at the age of fifteen."
Jiang Yuan's voice turned colder.
A few years ago, the village was still underdeveloped and communication was not advanced. Selling a daughter was not uncommon at the time, and the villagers were used to it. Everyone chose to remain silent, so no one reported the matter.
Thirteen years old? I was only in junior high when I was thirteen!
Thank you to my parents!
[I can't tell how much you love your daughter; it's obviously an act. Case closed!]
Having her first child at fifteen...it's hard to judge.
At fifteen, aren't we still the flowers of our motherland?
[A thirteen-year-old doesn't need much support, right? They're capable of earning money themselves, aren't they? Believing you that they sold someone because they couldn't support them is like believing pigs can fly.]
“You traded your daughter for three hundred yuan, and then added some money to buy a kidnapped woman from Wang Ergou in your village. That woman is your current daughter-in-law, Yao Fang,” Jiang Yuan continued.
“On the first day she entered your Li family, you set rules for her, and then treated her like a maid. When you were happy, you made her drink thin porridge, and when you were unhappy, you made her eat swill. If she was mistreated by someone else, she would vent her anger on him. It wasn’t just you, your son did the same.”
“If he drank too much or lost at gambling, he would take his anger out on her. He would scold her or even hit her. Several times he beat her so badly that she had stomach bleeding and was covered in bruises.”
“Not only did you not stop her, but you also said your son did a good job beating her, and then you beat her even more severely.”
"Two years passed like this. During those two years, Yao Fang was unable to conceive. You suspected that there was something wrong with her health, so you took her to see a doctor. It turned out that the problem was with your son."
"You wanted a grandson, and your son wanted a son, so the two of them conspired to send Yao Fang to the cornfield, and then had your second uncle ambush her there, and then..."
Jiang Yuan paused, and even if she didn't say anything, the viewers in the live stream knew what had happened next.
[You beast!]
[It's chilling!]
[Ah, kidnapped and beaten, buffs stacked up!]
[You old fool, you should just die.]
“Once it happens, it will happen again, and again… After that, your second uncle kept trying to seduce Yao Fang at your house, and you and your son turned a blind eye, after all… it was only because Yao Fang was pregnant with your Li family’s child.” Jiang Yuan said, her emotions fluctuating.
What Li Lian and her son did was outrageous.
[Is this treating his daughter-in-law like she's being sold outside?]
"Ah, where's my forty-meter-long sword? Give it to me, quick!"
[Terrifying, chilling.]
"A few months later, Yao Fang became pregnant as you wished. During this time, you treated Yao Fang as well as you would an ancestor, but the fetus was of poor quality and she had a biochemical pregnancy in less than two months. Before Yao Fang could even finish her postpartum confinement, she was beaten by you and your son again. After this incident, Yao Fang was unable to have children again."
“When the village started to have a bus route, you could take the bus to the city. So Yao Fang had the idea of escaping again. She ran away when you weren’t paying attention, but your neighbors saw her on her way and went back to tell you. You and a few neighbors went to the bus stop to wait for Yao Fang, took her back, and beat her up.”
"After that, Yao Fang was always chained up. One time, the door was unlocked and a neighbor sneaked in. He saw Yao Fang chained up and had evil intentions. He then attacked her. You happened to see this when you got home. You originally wanted to cause trouble for that neighbor, but unexpectedly, your neighbor gave you money."
