Chapter 3 Breaking Away from the "In-laws"
She was trying to remember how the cheap son of the original owner had come to be when she heard a cry like a broken gong.
", my broom's star hit our old man, we shouldn't have spent money to buy you in the first place, not to mention killing my family's eldest man, and bringing other people's wild seeds..."
Ruan Xiaodie immediately covered Ruan Sheng's ears to prevent him from listening to the foul language.
The person who came was the mother-in-law of the original owner, and she and Fu Laohan were really a pair of pigs and dogs made in heaven.
Li Lamei looked at Ruan Xiaodie's appearance, her eyes flashed with ruthlessness, and her mouth was still selling miserably, "It's a pity that my eldest man was killed at a young age, and this woman shamelessly brought the adulterer and her son to swagger through the market." ”
Ruan Xiaodie looked up at the man who was suddenly labeled as an "adulterer", for fear that he would not be able to help but cut Li Lamei.
Fu Laohan's family lives at the end of the village, and no one knows them except Li Zhuang's family at the foot of the slope, and everyone can only understand them by listening to Li Lamei's broken voice.
After hearing her words, the people in the village all wore sympathy, and they were quite dissatisfied when they looked at Ruan Xiaodie's eyes, and they were afraid of Lu Chuan's existence, so everyone only dared to whisper.
Ruan Xiaodie sneered, put Ruan Sheng next to Lu Chuan, and took two steps forward to start taking off his clothes.
Now the women around them couldn't bear it, and scolded one by one, "You shameless person, what are you doing in broad daylight?" ”
In ancient times, it was a particularly unethical thing to take off her outer skirt in front of everyone, but Ruan Xiaodie didn't have this kind of thought, in modern times she was wearing a miniskirt and a short vest, and now she still has long sleeves and long pants.
Taking off her wide and heavy dress, you can see Ruan Xiaodie's thin skeleton more clearly, she lifted her sleeves, and her snow-white arms were scarred and dirty.
There were nail cuts, whip whips, and even a scabbed brand, which looked like it was left by a piece of red-hot iron.
Lu Chuan's body was shocked, he has been practicing martial arts all year round, and naturally understands that these wounds cannot be formed overnight, I am afraid that this is the trace left by the continuous beating on the wound that is about to heal, it turns out that she has been living such a day before?
He followed Ruan Xiaodie's example and pressed Ruan Sheng's eyes to prevent him from looking, and he looked at the terrible scar and lowered his eyebrows slightly.
Everyone didn't expect Ruan Xiaodie to have so many wounds on her body, and they gasped one by one.
Ruan Xiaodie put down her sleeves and looked at Li Lamei, whose face was darkened, mockingly, "This is just one of my hands, I don't have a good skin on my body, it's all thanks to my good father-in-law and mother-in-law, they can't wait to treat me as a dog, everyone has forgotten, the Fu family Lang was bitten by a snake in the early morning, and I am not a Daluo immortal. ”
Li Lamei didn't expect Ruan Xiaodie to be so shameless, she began to take off her clothes in broad daylight, the original owner was used to the soft bag before, and after being beaten, she complained to Wang Mei about it and was heard by Fu Laohan, and she was beaten even more, so she didn't dare to say it later, which also made these two people even more unscrupulous.
"She talked nonsense, we didn't hit her!"
Ruan Xiaodie sneered, "You didn't beat me, could it be that I went crazy and couldn't fight myself." ”
"When I go into the town tomorrow, I will report to the officials and tell them how you two old immortals beat and sell people."
Li Lamei's face was pale, and she grabbed Ruan Xiaodie's hand and was about to drag her home, "Dead girl, why don't you go back with me quickly, you will be embarrassed outside." ”
Li Lamei couldn't wait to take her back and beat her up again behind closed doors.
Ruan Xiaodie was not as good as they wanted, she shook off Li Lamei's hand, and said loudly, "You spent fifty yuan when you bought me back, and in the past five years, I have helped you go to the fields and farm, feed pigs and cattle, wash and cook, no matter how clean these fifty wen, from today onwards, we have no relationship!" ”
Li Lamei was angry and fussy, and she raised a heavy slap and was about to fan her, Ruan Xiaodie just wanted to dodge, but someone moved faster than her.
Lu Chuan held Ruan Sheng in his arms with one hand, and grabbed Li Lamei's hand with the other.
"If you don't have a conscience, you know that you are bullying my wife alone."
Ruan Xiaodie disdained her tricks, she hugged the little ball in Lu Chuan's arms, although Ruan Sheng was only four years old, he also knew a lot of things, such as his grandparents didn't like him at all.
"Sheng'er, do you still want to live with them?"
Ruan Sheng shook his head, they always beat his mother, he didn't want to live with them at all, "I don't want to, I want to live with my mother." ”
Ruan Xiaodie hugged him distressedly, she didn't care about any rumors in the village, anyway, she wouldn't let herself stay here for the rest of her life, "From today on, I, Ruan Xiaodie, have nothing to do with the Fu family, and I am not the daughter-in-law of the Fu family." ”
"Of course, if you are unwilling, then we will go to the town to help the official directly, and let them evaluate what you should do."
Li Lamei shuddered, she couldn't be clearer about what she had done over the years, and where could she report to the official.
Ruan Xiaodie ignored him, hugged Sheng'er and walked back, and when she passed by Lu Chuan, she whispered a thank you to him.
The people in the village watched such a big farce, and it soon spread throughout the village, Li Lamei was embarrassed, and took the unconscious Fu Laohan to hide at home and refused to come out.
Ruan Xiaodie simply packed a few clothes and led Ruan Sheng out of the door, blowing a cold wind for a while, she is slowly calming down now, she doesn't have a car and a house like in modern times, where can she go now that she just came out.
"Fluttershy, Fluttershy, come in."
Wang Meila opened the door and beckoned people in, she is also a hard-working woman, when she was a child, she had a drunkard father, and her daughter was beaten a lot, she was sold to the only lame man in the village, Li Zhuang's family, when she was just thirteen.
Fortunately, Li Zhuangren is honest and treats her well, although her life is a little poorer, she can get by.
She took out half of the corn from the stove and handed it to Ruan Sheng, Ruan Sheng swallowed his saliva and looked at Ruan Xiaodie, and only after getting her eyes of agreement did he take the corn and said crisply, "Thank you, Aunt Wang." ”
Wang Mei touched his hair lovingly, and looked at Ruan Xiaodie with concern, "Xiaodie, although that family is not a thing, there is no place for you to stay when you suddenly get out like this, but how can it be." ”
It's not that she doesn't want to help, there is no laborer at home, Li Zhuang's family only has one room, and a pigsty, and the kitchen is all open-air, so there is really no place for their mother and son.
Ruan Xiaodie gratefully held her hand, "Sister Wang, thank you, don't worry, I'll take Sheng'er to the temple next to the stage for one night today, and I'll make plans tomorrow." ”
In the past, there were often passers-by who would stay in the temple for a night, it was better than sleeping on the road, Wang Mei picked half of the kerosene lamp and gave it to Ruan Xiaodie, and wrapped some dry food for her, Ruan Xiaodie shirked but had to accept it, and decided that she would repay Wang Mei well in the future.
