Chapter 13

Qingyuan Village.

Han Youniang's heartache has happened again recently. Every time she goes to the field to bend or squat down, her heart hurts badly.Whenever there were people around, she dared not cry out no matter how painful her heart was, and only after returning home would she hide in her small room and apply some plaster on it.

On this day, after she had finished her farm work in the field, and the last twilight of the setting sun was about to fall, she dragged her tired body to the small courtyard of her hut.

Pushing open the courtyard door, she was relieved to find that it was pitch black, as long as the man hadn't come back.

Han Youniang walked back to her room slowly. In order to save candles, she only lit a small oil lamp.

With the help of the dim light, she unbuttoned her blouse, exposing the skin on her chest. The area near her heart was already purple-black, and under the white and tender skin was all congestion and clogged blood vessels.

She carefully took a little ointment for removing blood stasis from the shell-shaped ointment box, and gently applied it to the wound, grinning in pain while applying it.She didn't dare to apply too much, the medicine for this small shell cost thirty Wen, so she had to save it.

Just as she was wiping her wounds and putting on her clothes, the door of the house suddenly banged open and someone kicked it open from the outside.

Han Youniang was startled when she heard the voice, she hurriedly gathered her clothes, and then turned around. After seeing that the person who came was a thick-skinned man reeking of alcohol, she shrank like a quail.

"Smelly woman, what are you doing all day long hiding in the house, why don't you go to the kitchen and get me some snacks?" The man stepped forward as he spoke, and stretched out his foot to kick Han Youniang.

The latter was so frightened that he hid in a hurry, begging for mercy and shouting, "I'm going, I'm going!" As he said, he rushed to the kitchen with some scrambling.

The man let out a "hum" from his nasal cavity, very dissatisfied with Han Youniang avoiding his kick.

While Han Youniang was busy in the kitchen, he began to rummage through the boxes and cabinets in the room to find things.There's only so much room in this house to hide things.So he quickly took out a small cloth bag from the base of a wall, opened the bag and took a look, and found that there were hundreds of coins in it.

The man's eyes were suddenly filled with haze.

After a while, Han Youniang walked into the room carrying several bowls of hot dishes.

At this time, the man had sat down at the only table in the room. Han Youniang placed the dishes in front of him one by one, then turned to the kitchen to fill a bowl of rice and brought a pair of chopsticks.

The man took the chopsticks she handed over, took two bites of food, and threw the chopsticks on the table.

Han Youniang was suddenly uneasy, not knowing what this person was going to do again.

Sure enough, the man pointed to the three dishes on the table, "Stir-fried cabbage, stir-fried pumpkin, and stir-fried beans. I want to eat food with wine. The dishes you stir-fry have no meat at all. How can I eat them? You are my father." Is it a monk in the temple?!"

Han Youniang stood aside and shrank her head, not daring to say anything.

"Speak! Are you dumb? I want to eat meat! Didn't you hear?"

Hearing this, Han Youniang had tears in her eyes, and she felt wronged from the bottom of her heart.The man idles around outside every day, and doesn't look for a serious job to do. He hasn't taken a penny from home since he got married.The whole family is maintained by her alone, farming and spinning.Outsiders only know that she, Han Youniang, is a hard-working, down-to-earth and good wife, but no one knows the pain and suffering in her heart.

The man yelled what he just said loudly again. She was afraid that the neighbors would hear it, so she muttered back, "My family... my family has no money to buy meat."

"No money to buy meat?" A strange smile appeared on the man's face, and he waved at her, "Come here, come here."

Where is Han Youniang willing to go?Looking at the smile on the other person's face, a huge fear surged into her heart, and she even wanted to flee here immediately.

She didn't go over, but the man came over.

As soon as he came up, he grabbed Han Youniang's hair, and then slapped Han Youniang twice in the face, causing her eyes to glisten and her mouth and nose to bleed.

"No money, right? Then look at what this is? Huh? What is this, what are you talking about?!" The man took out the square cloth bag and waved it in front of Han Youniang, who saw the familiar cloth color clearly. , suddenly his eyes turned red.

"That's my money! It's my hard-earned money, not yours. You give it back to me, you give me back the money!" Han Youniang desperately tried to grab the cloth bag from the other party.

However, how could her strength surpass the person in front of her?
The man directly grabbed her head and slammed it on the table. With a "boom", he picked it up and slammed it down again.It seemed that what he was holding in his hand was not a living person, but a toy that could be broken and tossed at will.

When he finally let go of his hand, Han Youniang slipped from his hand with blood on her face, and she was still muttering, "You...you give me back the money, give me back...".

The man let out a "bah" and spit thick phlegm into her face.

"Give you money? This is your money? I spent money to marry you back, and everything about you belongs to me. Don't think I don't know, you just want to leave this little money to you and that man It's a pity, but I heard that a few days ago, your little brat was pushed into the well by his stepmother and drowned. When he fished it, his eyes were still open, and he didn't want to die. You Money, let me keep it for you!" The man said, putting the cloth bag containing the money on his chest, and was about to go out.

Han Youniang, who suddenly heard the bad news, suddenly sat up from the ground, and her whole body was so violent that she rushed towards the man, "Niu San, stop! Who do you say is dead? Who do you say is dead!"

The man immediately raised his leg and kicked her in the heart, "Who else would you be if you didn't have that little brat born to your ex-husband? He always likes the new and dislikes the old, otherwise he wouldn't have given up on you. If I hadn't been kind enough to marry you back, you are now She's still a widow!"

After hearing the heart-piercing news again, Han Youniang's eyes were blurred by tears, "He, how could he be like this, that is also his son, his own flesh and blood! How could he be willing to..., how could he be like this? Willing? God! I, Han Youniang, beg you, please open your eyes! A lightning bolt will kill these beasts!"

Han Youniang's hoarse cry resounded above the small courtyard.

Niu San listened to her frantic cries, worried that he would attract neighbors, so he reached out and took off his belt, and stepped forward quickly, ready to wrap the other party's mouth with the belt.

Just when he was about to meet Han Youniang, an extremely cold voice came from behind him, "You dare to touch her."

Niu San immediately wanted to turn around to see who it was, but a mysterious force imprisoned him, making him unable to move.Immediately afterwards, he discovered that he could not even open his mouth to make a sound.

An inexplicable fear hit his heart.
