Three Women in the Cage

On this weekend, Xinxin was grazing ducks in the harvested farmland, while Yang Yu was watering the crops in the field on the other side. Xinxin kept listening to the noises coming from her mother's side, fearing that someone else would occupy her land and start a quarrel with her mother.

Xinxin was very thankful this time, because until the evening, there was no quarreling sound from her mother's side. She immediately felt relieved and thought to herself: This day went pretty smoothly, and I finally had a day without any danger.

Relieved, she waited on the road, waiting to go home with her mother!

Standing on the edge of the field, looking in the distance in the direction my mother passed by, I kept waiting, until it got darker and darker, but there was no sign of my mother.

Xinxin was a little anxious. She glanced at the ducks pecking at food in the field and thought: They shouldn't go far. I can just go and see my mother and come back. It shouldn't take too much time.

So with a nervous mood, she hurried towards her mother. Suddenly, she heard some quarreling over there. Her heart skipped a beat and she begged that it was not her mother's quarrel and had nothing to do with her mother.

With a little hope and self-deceptive pleading, she approached her mother with fear and uneasiness in her heart.

However, the closer I got, the clearer the familiar sound of quarreling became. There was no doubt that it was my mother's voice. As expected, there was no surprise. I was worried and frightened every day, and the hurt was repeated every day.

Her heart suddenly sank, her whole body felt cold, and her breathing became rapid. It was like a heavy stone was pressing on her chest, and an invisible depression and discomfort tightly wrapped around her.

I raised my head and looked at the sky, and a feeling of powerlessness came over me. I had finally had hopes that I shouldn't have had, and God would never have mercy on me and let me go.

Sighing, she approached with heavy steps, feeling despair and sadness. As she got closer, she saw clearly the person who was arguing with her mother. It turned out to be him, the ruffian Li Jian.

Looking at his direction, he should have just come from my aunt's place. I didn't expect that they were already living together.

Now that he has come here, I'm afraid he was instigated by my aunt and came to cause trouble for my mother. He didn't expect to meet my mother here. As soon as the two met, they started quarreling with each other in disgust.

The man was standing on the edge of the field, pointing his finger at Yang Yu and cursing, "You're such a meddlesome person, aren't you? You still want to say bad things about me? You're trying to sow discord between me and your sister-in-law. Do you want to die?"

Yang Yu spat in his direction and said disgustedly: "Who the hell are you? Do you need me to provoke you? I'm telling you the truth, what's wrong? You, a bachelor who can't find a wife, are you worthy of living in my mother's house? Are you worthy of being fed and drunk in my mother's house? Don't even think about it, you shameless thing! You want to eat free food, how can you be so cheap? If you have the guts, marry my sister-in-law and stop staying in my mother's house."

The man laughed frivolously and said, "It was your sister-in-law who begged me to go. Do you think I want to go? Haha, your sister-in-law begged me to come to your house, begged me to be the father of your brother's son. From now on, your brother's house is mine, his wife is mine, his son is mine, hahaha, everything is mine! What's the matter? I'll piss you off to death!"

"Let me tell you, if you don't know what's good for you, I'll ruin your eldest brother's wife and children. Hahahaha"

"But, I really don't like your sister-in-law. It's a pity that she needs a man, and I pity her, so I reluctantly become her man. If you were like her, knowing what's right and wrong, and pleasing me, maybe in the future, I would be a good brother to you and treat them well. What do you think?"

The man suggested to Yang Yu with disgust.

Yang Yu blushed and said, "Bah! You're like this, and you still want to be my big brother and please me? You don't deserve it! Stop dreaming! I must be blind to look down on something like you. So what? I'm nothing. Only someone as hungry as my sister-in-law would treat you like a piece of shit."

"Let me tell you, it doesn't matter what you do to Tian Yun, but if you bully my nephew, I will never forgive you. If you want to do whatever you want in my mother's house, do you think all our brothers and sisters are gone? You are delusional, let me tell you..."

While they were arguing, Xinxin hurried forward and shouted in panic: "Mom..."

Yang Yu turned around and saw Xinxin. Surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he shouted, "What are you doing here? Where are those ducks? Why don't you keep a close eye on them? What if they get lost? Go back and take care of them, and drive them home and lock them up."

Yang Yu saw that the man wanted to take action. If they stayed outside, both she and her child would suffer. At this time, she didn't want Xinxin to come over, so as not to be affected.

Also, she was indeed worried that the ducks would be secretly driven back home by someone with ulterior motives when no one was watching them.

Hearing her mother scolding her to leave, Xinxin felt very conflicted. How could she leave alone at this time? She really couldn't bear to leave her mother behind.

Feeling like she was being scolded by her mother, she resolutely approached her mother and said, "I'm not leaving. If you want to leave, let's go together. It's getting late anyway. Let's go back together!"

During the whole process, Li Jian stared fiercely and kept cursing and swearing.

Yang Yu knew Xinxin was worried about him, and he probably couldn't send her away alone at this moment. After thinking for a moment, he picked up the load, stood up, and said to Xinxin, "Let's go home quickly and drive the ducks back. We'll talk about it when we get home."

Li Jian saw them preparing to leave, and quickly chased after them, cursing, "Why are you leaving? No, I haven't explained myself clearly yet, stop right there!"

Yang Yu didn't know what he was thinking about. He walked quickly in front and turned back to say, "If you have the guts, come home with me. I don't have time to argue with you now. I'll argue with you later when we get home."

The man wondered if she was trying to please him, but judging by her demeanor, it didn't seem like it. Unable to fathom her thoughts, he wanted to see what she was up to, so he followed her, cursing as he walked.

He said unwillingly: "Okay, who's afraid of who! I'll go to your house if I want to. I'm not afraid of you..."

Yang Yu pulled Xinxin and asked her to leave quickly. Xinxin didn't understand what her mother was thinking, and seeing her mother's anxious look, she also became nervous.

She quickly ran to the ducks and used two long poles to drive the ducks from left to right, sending them back home.

The flock of ducks ran home in panic, quacking non-stop. They seemed to have sensed the coming storm and were running in panic.

Xinxin looked at the man following her mother, panicking about what was about to happen while absent-mindedly driving the ducks.

The panicked cries of the ducks at this moment made her feel even more confused and uneasy.

With mixed feelings, she drove the ducks in front while looking back, fearing that the man would suddenly pounce on her when she was not paying attention.

In such torment, we finally arrived at the yard, and the sky gradually darkened.
