The whole family stocked up on supplies two years in advance, so they could live a life of luxury wh

Granny Liu screamed:

"No way! You hit my son, you hit my nephew, you smashed everything in my house! You can't just leave with your people now!"

"Pay up!"

Li Dashan pointed at her nose and cursed:

"Paying you money, fine, then let's talk about the reasons!"

"How have you tormented my older sister these past three years? How have you hurt her? How are you going to make amends?"

Granny Liu looked at Li Dashan, hands on hips, and cursed:

"I am her mother-in-law. I can decide whether she lives or dies. You can't take her away today."

"You can only take her away if I'm dead."

Xing'er rolled her eyes at her upon hearing this.

She then turned her attention to her so-called brother-in-law.

One turn.

Xing'er grabbed his head and gave him a good beating.

Hit his legs first, then his arms, and finally his face.

They beat him until he screamed.

When others tried to come and help, Xing'er glared at them and drove them away.

Liu was already suffering enough from being beaten herself, but now that her son had been beaten black and blue, her heart ached as if she were being roasted on a fire. She immediately knelt before Xing'er and cried out:

"Stop hitting him! Stop hitting my son!"

"You brat, stop hitting me!"

"My heart aches for you!!!"

Hearing this, Xing'er finally released Liu Xuecai. Seeing him lying on the ground like a dead dog, Granny Liu rushed over, hugged him, and cried:

"My son!"

"You've suffered!"

Li Dashan felt only irony looking at Granny Liu's weeping. He pointed at her nose and cursed:

"Your son is a human being, but my eldest sister isn't?"

"Let me tell you, if it weren't for my sister's good temper, she would have beaten your son to death today."

Xing'er stared coldly at Granny Liu, then curled the corner of her mouth and said:

"You can report it to the authorities."

"But you should carefully consider the consequences. You have connections in your family, and so do I."

"If you don't believe me, let's see whose backing is stronger."

Xing'er had just finished speaking.

Talk started among the crowd.

Erwa's wife whispered:

"No wonder they dared to come and snatch people today. It turns out the Li family has connections. My husband said they hired about three hundred people to build a new house. That's quite a lot of money."

"Tsk tsk tsk."

"The Li family is not what it used to be!"

A busybody asked:

"What? You guys said the Li family hired three hundred people to build their house? Such a big entourage must mean they know some important people."

"Exactly, who needs hundreds of people to build a house?"

Another old woman with a full head of white hair said:

"Look at that little girl from the Li family, she's got some serious skills. If she didn't have someone backing her up, would she dare to give Xuecai and his mother a good beating?"

"Auntie is right, but Xuecai's family is usually too harsh on his daughter-in-law, no wonder people came to their door to fight."

An elderly woman, munching on sunflower seeds, watched Xue Cai's family being beaten with great interest, as if it were a grand opera. She kept cracking sunflower seeds in her mouth and even asked others if they wanted some, and the others grabbed some and started eating them too.

They ate and talked.

Sunflower seed shells were scattered all over the ground.

The old village chief originally intended to ask the Li family to pay compensation or to have Xuecai find someone to help him. After all, as the head of the village, it would be embarrassing for him to see his own people being bullied by outsiders.

But he changed his mind after hearing the villagers gossiping.

This guy!

He's someone you can't afford to offend.

The old village chief coughed twice and said:

"Ahem, Xuecai's mother, I think we should just let this matter go. Just let her get a divorce. You hurt the Li family's daughter, and she hurt your son. That evens things out."

Granny Liu sniffed, wiped her snot on her sleeve, and cried and cursed:

"Get out of here, all of you! From now on, the Liu family and the Li family have absolutely no connection whatsoever."

That's exactly what Xing'er wanted to hear.

"Since she has already spoken, I, Li Xing'er, ask the village chief to make the decision, and the villagers to bear witness, that from this moment on, my sister Li Chunhua and Liu Xuecai shall be divorced."

From this day forward, men and women will marry and go their separate ways!

The old village chief nodded, then turned to Xuecai and asked:

"Xuecai, what do you think?"

Liu Xuecai had already been beaten into submission, so he dared not utter a single word of dissent. Now his face was swollen like a pig's head, and he could only nod helplessly.

Seeing that the Liu family had agreed, the old village chief waved his hand and said:

"Let's go. Go to my house now and write a divorce agreement. Once you both sign it, the matter will be settled."

"good!"

Upon hearing this, Xing'er and Li Dashan turned around and returned to the main room of the Liu family. Li Dashan carried his weak older sister up the mountain and headed towards the village chief's house.

Li Xiaoshan wiped away tears again and again as he looked at his eldest sister's emaciated appearance.

When Li Chunhua heard the news, her eyes lit up, and she looked quite normal again.

Li Xiaoshan couldn't hold back her tears. She reached out with difficulty to wipe away her younger brother's tears, but her hand was too weak. Xing'er quickly took her hand and comforted her:

"Big sister, it's alright, second brother will be fine after crying."

Li Xiaoshan choked back a sob and murmured an "Mmm":

"Big sister, I'm fine, don't worry about me. We'll take you home today, and everything will be fine from now on."

"No one will dare to bully you again."

Upon hearing this, Li Chunhua's eyes began to well up with tears again.

"Big brother, second brother, third sister, I've finally been waiting for you! With you all here, I'm not afraid anymore!"

Xing'er reached out and wiped away her tears, then took out some spiritual spring water for her to drink. "Big sister, don't talk, drink some water to soothe your throat."

"Thank you... thank you, Third Sister!"

Li Chunhua reached out her withered, claw-like hand and touched her third sister's cheek.

Xing'er placed the water pouch near her mouth and let her older sister take a big gulp before putting the water pouch away.

At the same time, she took out a piece of candy from her pocket and said:

"Hey sis, have a piece of candy!"

"Once you eat it, your body won't hurt anymore!"

"well!!"

The moment Li Chunhua's parched lips touched the spiritual spring water, they visibly regained their moisture, and the pain and heat throughout her body were greatly relieved, especially when her third sister put a piece of malt candy into her mouth.

She finally realized.

The day will be bright!

The wildflowers by the roadside have never looked as beautiful as they do now.

She could finally leave the Liu family, a place that was like hell.

soon.

Li Dashan carried his eldest sister, along with his third sister and second brother, to the village chief's house.

The old village chief had the village's young students write out divorce papers, and then had Li Chunhua and Xuecai each put their thumbprints on them.

As for the bride price, the groom's family made no demands, and the dowry was originally nothing much.

Their relationship dissipated like a gentle breeze.

After the matter was settled, Xing'er asked again:

"Old village chief, may I ask if there's an oxcart in the village?"

The old village chief stroked his beard and said:

"Yes, we do have that service, but firstly, it costs money, and secondly, we can only take you to town at most. Is that feasible?"

Xing'er turned to look at her eldest sister, who was slumped in her older brother's arms, and nodded.

"Money is not a problem, I'll just trouble the old village chief to make the arrangements."

"That's easy, I have some at home!"

"I will have my son take you to town."
