Three Women in the Cage
Chapter 9 A quarrel breaks out
As night fell, Yang Yu dragged her tired body back to the bedroom. She just wanted to find a quiet corner to relax.
However, just as she was about to lie down, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Zhang Erfa walked in with a gloomy face. His eyes were full of dissatisfaction and blame, as if Yang Yu had made some big mistake.
"What's wrong with you today? You're just cooking at home, but you have such a sullen face. Who are you doing it for? You're making the whole family unhappy!" Zhang Erfa asked bluntly.
Yang Yu felt exhausted. She didn't want to explain anything to him anymore. She just tried to remain calm and said, "I'm just a little tired..."
"Tired? What kind of excuse is that? I just don't understand. Didn't you behave well at your house before? When my parents came back, they praised you in front of my brothers, saying that you were virtuous and capable. My brothers all said that I was so lucky and they were envious.
"Now, as their eldest sister-in-law, can't you even do this? Do you have to embarrass everyone?" Zhang Erfa continued to roar, completely disregarding Yang Yu's feelings.
Yang Yu listened to her husband's endless complaints. She was really tired and wanted to have a good rest. However, this man not only didn't care about her, but also blamed her. He even disturbed her when she wanted to have some quiet time. She really couldn't stand it anymore.
I yelled out what was in my heart, "Zhang Erfa, I only married you, not your family, I'm not your nanny. I'm also a human being, I get tired too, everything here is unfamiliar to me, and none of you asked me to get used to it. You didn't even give me an adjustment period, but you asked me to start serving your family. It's bad enough that I didn't know your family was poor, but it turns out there are so many things I have to deal with."
Zhang Erfa snorted coldly and glanced at Yang Yu with a cold look in his eyes, "Otherwise, why do you think I would marry a girl as old as you?"
It turned out that many girls had been attracted to Zhang Erfa, but were ultimately turned away by his impoverished family. Only Yang Yu was attracted by Zhang Erfa's appearance and rushed into the relationship. Add to that the fact that Zhang's father constantly coaxed Yang's father into drinking, and the relationship fell into place.
Yang Yu suddenly realized that this man had been pretending to be honest and dutiful. Haha... Haha, he was so honest that it was heartbreaking. She laughed at herself and had her first heated argument with Zhang Erfa.
However, during their quarrel, Zhang's parents never intervened, and the other brothers pretended to know nothing. She felt like a helpless person, struggling to move forward alone in this strange place.
After the argument, Zhang Erfa resorted to cold violence against Yang Yu, trying to force her to compromise. The next day, he even spoke harshly to her. Because of Zhang Erfa's influence, the other brothers became even more indifferent to Yang Yu, even tinged with contempt, especially the youngest brothers, Lao Liu and Lao Qi.
They even felt that their sister-in-law was bullying their second brother, and their eyes were filled with disgust. Coupled with the Zhangs' parents' lack of mediation, the conflict gradually took a turn. Yang Yu, however, had always been strong-willed and stubborn. The more someone tried to get her to compromise, the more she would fight to the end, refusing to back down.
As for those brothers whom she treated with good food and drink every day but still treated her like that, she was even more determined to resist to the end and would not bow to any of them.
This stalemate seemed like a war could erupt at any spark, and that day had finally arrived.
That day, Yang Yu prepared a table full of dishes as usual and waited for them to come back for dinner. When they came back, they casually threw away their work tools and sat down at the table to wait for dinner.
Yang Yu calmly packed up the tools and went to serve the dishes to the table. Looking at these so-called brothers, who were now sitting at the table, they glanced at Yang Yu intentionally or unintentionally, as if they were dissatisfied with her slowness and had a hint of impatience.
Yang Yu didn't want to compromise with them anymore, so he only served Zhang's father and mother, Zhang Erfa, and himself, then sat down to eat. The others looked at each other in confusion, and before they could figure out what was going on, a voice came over.
"Xiao Yu, did you serve too few bowls of rice? Look, your brothers and the others haven't eaten yet." Zhang's mother said a little awkwardly.
"I haven't forgotten, Mom. They are already grown up. Let them serve their own food." Yang Yu replied in a calm tone.
Suddenly, there was a loud bang on the table. Zhang's father said excitedly, "Second brother, how can you control your wife? Your brothers and sisters work hard outside and come back, can't they have a bowl of hot rice?"
At this time, Zhang's father looked at Zhang Erfa with a gloomy face, and those so-called brothers also looked at Zhang Erfa with eyes that said "If you don't deal with your wife, we will look down on you."
Zhang Erfa had always obeyed his parents' orders since he was young, and he was also self-righteous and doted on his younger brother. In order to establish his own authority and face, he turned to Yang Yu and said sternly, "Didn't you hear what mom and dad said? Why don't you go? It's just a few bowls of rice. Why are you making such a fuss? Do you still act like a sister-in-law?"
Yang Yu didn't want to pay attention to them, pretending not to hear and continued eating. Zhang Erfa's face instantly became gloomy. He raised his hand and slapped Yang Yu's face hard, making a crisp sound of "pa". "I'm talking, can't you hear me? Eat, eat, eat. Mom and dad haven't even started eating yet, why do you start eating first?"
Yang Yu covered her face with the slap mark in astonishment, staring at Zhang Erfa and the others with indifferent expressions in wide-eyed disbelief. At this moment, her grievance and anger intertwined, prompting her to step forward and wrestle with Zhang Erfa.
She rushed forward like a madman, shouting, "I'll fight you today!" However, a woman's strength was too weak in front of a man. Before long, Yang Yu was pinned to the ground, being beaten and kicked by Zhang Erfa. As Yang Yu screamed, Zhang's parents and other so-called brothers stood by and watched coldly.
That night, Yang Yu could no longer bear to stay here a moment longer, so he dragged his injured body and ran towards his mother's home with heavy steps.
The night road was pitch black, without a single light. But that couldn't stop her determination to return home. She missed home, wanted to return to the place she was familiar with. Although it wasn't warm there, it was at least not as cold as here. She longed for a little warmth and support.
The journey, which usually takes an hour, took two hours to reach her mother's home because of her injury. When she arrived, it was already late at night, and all around was silent. Yang Yu stood quietly at the familiar doorway, knocking and crying, "Dad, Mom, open the door, it's Xiaoyu!" Yang Yu's shrill cries pierced the stillness of the night.
