Farmhouse Green Plum

Daya was stunned. Was Second Aunt forced to marry into the Li family? Did her family owe money to the Li family before?

She was greatly shocked. In her impression, the Li family was not very wealthy, and in recent years they were even not as wealthy as the Song family.

Was your family so poor before?

As his thoughts raced, he heard Li's helpless voice from inside the house, "We in the Song family don't want to have a rogue son-in-law. Our original plan was to marry you two sisters off as soon as possible. It's just your bad luck that the Li family came knocking on our door right after your eldest sister's wedding."

Song Ergu's crying became more obvious.

After a long while, Li sighed and advised: "Haowa is getting older. You should wait for two more years. When Haowa gets married and becomes the head of the family, life will be better."

Aunt Song cried out, "I'm afraid I don't have that fate. If I don't divorce him, he will beat me to death."

Daya's heart tightened when she heard this. Li Wu also beat Second Aunt? !

"Divorce!" Li's voice suddenly rose. "Do you still want to go to heaven? Which girl from a good family would always talk about divorce?

If you get divorced, where will you live? How will you support yourself?

You don't want fame, but we in the Song family do. Daya is growing up, and her aunt is divorced at the age of forty. How can she find a husband in the future?

And your uncle's nieces, what do you want them to do?"

Li's question hit Song Ergu so hard that she couldn't breathe. "Will you be satisfied if he beats me to death?"

Daya couldn't stand it anymore, so she pushed open the door and said, "Grandma, just let Second Aunt get a divorce. It doesn't matter if I can't find a husband."

The sudden opening of the door startled everyone in the room. Aunt Song hurriedly said, "Daya, what are you doing here? Get out now."

The light suddenly went from dim to bright, and Li's eyesight was not good. After hearing what Aunt Song said, she realized that the person who came in was Daya.

She was furious and immediately scolded: "You are becoming more and more unruly day by day, and you even learned to eavesdrop!"

Daya quickly explained: "I didn't mean to eavesdrop. The brown sugar is gone, and Second Aunt asked me to come to you to get some."

Li hesitated for a moment, then grabbed another person and scolded him: "As an unmarried woman, you keep talking about your husband's family. Do you have any shame?"

Daya knew she had said something wrong, so she pursed her lips and spoke up for Aunt Song again: "Grandma, let Aunt Song get a divorce. Li Wu hit people..."

Before she finished her words, Li grabbed a handful of melon seeds and threw them at her, "Is this something you, an unmarried woman, can get involved in?"

Although the melon seeds are small, they still hurt when they hit the face. Of course, this pain is nothing to Daya.

What frightened her was that Li's anger had obviously reached its peak. She stood there, not daring to move or speak.

Li's face was dark. She went to the bedroom and got some brown sugar. "When adults are discussing something, little kids should stay away. Do you understand? Go and cook eggs with your second aunt. If you take another step into the main room, I'll break your legs!"

Daya pursed her lips and thought to herself: When you asked me to do work, you never treated me like a child.

Of course, she only dared to say this in her heart.

Aunt Song wiped her tears and said to Daya, "Daya, listen to your grandma and get out."

In this situation, no matter how unwilling Daya was, she had to go out.

When the brown sugar eggs were cooked and I called them, the room had returned to calm, except for Aunt Song whose eyes were red, showing something strange.

After eating the brown sugar eggs, Aunt Song and her family said goodbye and left, and Uncle Song accompanied them all the way to the village entrance.

As usual, Song Ergu would stay at home for one night and go back the next day.

But this year, until the afternoon of the second day, Second Aunt Song did not mention leaving. Daya was very happy and quietly asked her, "Second Aunt, did grandma agree to your divorce?"

Aunt Song covered her mouth with her hand, glanced around, and let go when she saw no one was paying attention. She warned, "You can't say these words outside. If others know, it will ruin your reputation."

"I know I won't talk nonsense outside."

After receiving her assurance, Second Aunt Song felt relieved and sighed, "Divorce is impossible. Your grandmother promised me to stay for a few more days. On the fifth day of the New Year, I will go with your second uncle and his family to pay New Year's greetings to your eldest aunt before returning home."

Daya was a little anxious, "What should we do? Will Li Wu beat you again later?"

"That's your second uncle, you can't call him by his full name."

"He hit you, and I don't recognize him as my second uncle."

Second Aunt Song was stunned for a moment, bitterness appeared on her lips, she reached out and hugged Daya into her arms, and sighed: "I'm afraid you are the only one in this family who cares about Second Aunt."

The tone filled with strong sadness made Daya feel depressed. She called "Second Aunt" softly, and then didn't know what to say.

After thinking for a while, she asked, "What do you mean by paying off the debt?"

Aunt Song patted her head and said, "Little kid, stop asking about these things."

No one wants to say anything. Could it be that something bad happened involving family members?

Daya guessed and asked about the divorce: "What about the divorce? How can we get a divorce?"

"It's so difficult for women in this world to get a divorce. It's basically impossible." The pain and despair in Song Ergu's eyes became even more intense as she gently rubbed Daya's hair.

"You must be careful when choosing a husband in the future. Don't jump into the fire pit like Second Aunt and never climb out."

Although Daya was young, she still had some understanding of these things. Whether in Xinghua Village or other nearby villages, the husband's family often beat the daughter-in-law. A few years ago, there was a serious case where the wife was almost beaten to death. Her family found the head of the village, but they just scolded the man.

After thinking for a while, she said, "Otherwise, let your second uncle beat up Li Wu to support you. If your brother-in-law beats up your brother-in-law, no one else can find fault with it."

The more Daya thought about it, the more she felt that this method was very feasible. If a woman was bullied at her husband's home, she would return to her parents' home to seek support from her brothers and sisters. This was a common practice.

Therefore, most girls are unwilling to marry far away.

Song Ergu's eyes darkened, and a hint of sarcasm appeared on her lips: "They won't go."

"Why?" The girl didn't understand. "Yesterday, my aunt was worried that the chickens and pigs at home might be stolen, so my grandmother asked my second uncle to go and support her."

Second Aunt Song stopped talking. Daya knew she couldn't get any information out of her, so she gave up.

It was not until she returned from paying New Year's greetings to Aunt Song on the sixth day of the New Year and met Lai Di that her doubts were answered.

"Your second uncle Li Wu is a well-known gangster in Guoxiang. He has several gangsters under him. How could your second uncle dare to beat him up?"

“So I can’t beat him.” Daya was stunned, and then said, “But our Song family doesn’t just have my second uncle, there are three uncles on my great grandfather’s side.

Even if the people are not enough, there are still the in-laws, the eldest uncle of the Cheng family, the four uncles of the great grandfather, and the brothers and sisters of the second aunt's natal family. They are determined to support the second aunt, so they are not without people. "

"Your second uncle is a gangster who can do anything. Who dares to confront him head-on?

If a person like him suffers a loss, he will definitely seek revenge, and your relatives can't be together all the time."
