Chapter 117 Beat You to Death
Chapter 117 Beat You to Death
Jiang Lanlan watched the carriage gradually disappear and reluctantly returned to the kitchen to continue cooking.
Her meal was not ready yet when Xie Zhi came back drunk.
Mrs. Wu saw Xie Zhi walking into the yard through the window. Fearing that Xie Zhi might fall, she hurried out to greet him and helped Xie Zhi back into the house.
Xie Zhi sat on the edge of the kang, his eyes blurry, and he burped, almost making Wu fall down.
"Why are you drinking so much again? Ever since you got married, you've developed a drinking habit. I don't know how it happened!"
"Mom, where is Jiang Lanlan?"
"Cooking!"
"It's already so late and the meal isn't ready yet. What has she been doing all morning?"
"Someone from her family is here!"
Although Xie Zhi was drunk, he was still sober. When he heard that someone from the Jiang family was coming, he subconsciously looked around the room.
Sure enough, I saw a lot of things piled up in the corner.
There was a bundle beside the pit.
He staggered over, opened it and looked inside. There was a brand new dress inside, for women.
He saw that it was the new clothes that the Jiang family bought for Jiang Lanlan, and he immediately became angry.
"Is this bitch showing off to us again?"
Wu replied expressionlessly.
"Who knows? Anyway, they came with such a grand ceremony today. Not only did they bring a lot of things, but they also came in a horse-drawn carriage! That carriage was so impressive, the whole village came to watch!"
"Driving a carriage? So ostentatious! Is that bitch Jiang Lanlan trying to trample our family's reputation into the mud? That's too much!"
"Son, don't get so angry that you get sick. Tell your wife to be more low-key when their family comes next time."
"No! This bitch will feel uncomfortable all over if she doesn't get beaten for a day."
Xie Zhi threw the new clothes in his hand to the ground and ran to the kitchen.
Jiang Lanlan was concentrating on cooking. When she heard footsteps behind her, she guessed it was Xie Zhi. She continued cooking without turning her head.
Xie Zhi stood behind her and said in a deep voice, "I'm back, didn't you hear?"
Jiang Lanlan didn't answer his question, but said, "The meal will be ready soon. If you're hungry, there are some cakes in the room that my brother brought. You can eat some to fill your stomach first."
Although these words were clearly words of concern, they sounded very harsh to Xie Zhi.
Isn't Jiang Lanlan's family just better off? As for suppressing him in every possible way, showing off to him, and embarrassing him!
Since marrying Jiang Lanlan, their family's living conditions have changed a lot. People in the village say that Xie Zhi benefited from his wife's family, otherwise he would never have been able to live such a comfortable life in his life.
He became furious when he heard it.
Although their family is not as well off as Jiang Lanlan's, they are not bad either!
Jiang Lanlan will never be short of clothes after she gets married.
How many months have they been married? How many times have the Jiang family come to visit?
People who have nothing to do always go to the married girl's in-laws' home.
Isn't this telling the Xie family that the Jiang family is not confident in marrying their daughter to them?
Isn’t this questioning the ability of their Xie family!
It's simply too much!
You don't take him seriously at all!
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Coupled with Jiang Lanlan's increasingly indifferent attitude, he was furious, his eyes bloodshot, and he grabbed Jiang Lanlan's hair and pulled it out.
The sudden external force made Jiang Lanlan subconsciously cover her hair with her hands, and her body retreated under the force of Xie Zhi.
"Xie Zhi, what are you doing? Let me go!"
"What are you doing? Your family looks down on me, and I can't hold my head up high in the village! This is all your fault! I'll beat you to death!"
Xie Zhi was tall to begin with, and he used all his strength, so Jiang Lanlan was easily pulled into their house like a little chick.
Then, the sound of something hitting someone was heard in the room.
Jiang Lanlan dodged and cursed.
"Xie Zhi, are you crazy? What are you doing?!"
"I'm crazy! You and your family have driven me crazy! I'm going to beat you to death!"
Under the influence of alcohol, Xie Zhi had lost his mind, his eyes were bloodshot, and he looked like a starving beast, going crazy when he saw a fat little rabbit.
Faced with the much stronger Xie Zhi, Jiang Lanlan had no power to fight back and could only dodge as much as possible to avoid being beaten.
Mrs. Wu sat outside the yard, listening to the screams coming from the room, her face expressionless, as if she was used to it.
After about a quarter of an hour, Xie Zhi was tired of fighting, so he walked out of the room and went to Wu's room.
"Mom, I'm sleepy. I want to sleep. Don't disturb me!"
"Oh, good, you must be exhausted, take a rest!"
Mrs. Wu's eyes were full of heartache, fearing that her beloved son would be tired. She only came to find Jiang Lanlan after settling Xie Zhi down.
Jiang Lanlan's clothes were torn in many places by Xie Zhi.
This was also the most severe time that Xie Zhi had beaten her.
She endured the pain in her body and sat in front of the bronze mirror with difficulty, crying and wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth.
Fortunately, Su Xiaoxiao and Jiang Xingjun didn't see her in such a miserable state, otherwise they would be worried to death.
Mrs. Wu stood at the door, looking at Jiang Lanlan's back, without a trace of heartache in her eyes.
"You are now a member of our Xie family. You must consider the Xie family in everything you do. Don't make your man angry again in the future, understand?"
Seeing that Jiang Lanlan didn't answer, she continued to remind her.
"Don't go around talking about your relationship. If you do, people will just laugh at you for being incompetent and not being able to coax your own man! And of course, don't even think about telling your family."
"If I find out you've gone back to your parents' house and embarrassed me, I'll have Xie Zhi divorce you right away! Our Xie Zhi is tall and handsome. If he divorces you, he'll definitely marry another virgin. But the same can't be said about you. Just ask yourself, what man would want to marry a divorced woman?"
She looked at Jiang Lanlan in the bronze mirror with contempt again.
"Divorced women are the most unlucky. Your family will also be despised by others. Your unmarried third brother and your two young nephews will just have to wait to be bachelors for the rest of their lives!"
She changed the subject and smiled like a kind person.
"However, as long as you are obedient and serve Xie Zhi well, I will definitely not let Xie Zhi divorce you. You can rest assured about this!"
Jiang Lanlan listened to the icy and threatening words, and tears began to flow again like a flood.
Mrs. Wu was very dissatisfied with Jiang Lanlan's attitude.
"Cry, cry, cry. You cry all day long. All the good luck in our family has been wiped out by your crying! It's so unlucky! Why did I marry someone as unlucky as you?"
After saying that, Wu turned and left with a look of disgust.
Jiang Lanlan looked at herself in the bronze mirror and suddenly felt so unfamiliar.
This is not the life she wants at all.
Is this how she will live the rest of her long life?
She lay on the table and burst into tears.
