The Fat Wife of the 1980s Awakens

Her face looked hideous because of her twisted laughter, and sparks of unwillingness and despair flickered in her eyes.

Seeing that the situation was critical, Xu Xiufang walked towards Xie Fei without hesitation and quickly untied the ropes that bound him.

She picked up a blood-stained rag from the ground, which contained something unspeakable. She firmly stuffed it into Xie Fei's trembling hands, "Hurry! Go to the hospital. Maybe there is still hope to bring the baby back."

Xie Fei's face was distorted due to severe pain, and bright red blood kept dripping down his thighs, forming a shocking pattern.

With trembling hands, he tightly covered the part that symbolized his dignity and future. The pain and fear made it almost impossible for him to breathe.

If everything is irreversible, the rest of his life will be permanently marked by shame and despair.

Enduring the excruciating pain, Xie Fei staggered forward in the night with his nearly naked body, tightly holding the rag that determined his fate in his hand. Every step seemed so difficult and humiliating.

His only thought was to return home as soon as possible, hoping that his wife would take him to the hospital and give him the final salvation.

However, on this desperate escape, he unexpectedly met Xie Yi who had just rushed out of the house.

At that moment, their eyes met in the air. Xie Yi's face was filled with shock and astonishment, and his heart felt like it was being pricked by a needle.

He never expected that Xu Xiufang went out late at night for such a thing.

At the same time, the scream had already caused an uproar in the village. The villagers' discussions rose and fell in the night sky, and curiosity and uneasiness spread in every corner.

When everyone witnessed Xie Fei's heart-pounding scene, they were all shocked to the extreme. Their mouths opened as if they could swallow the whole world's surprise in one gulp.

Just as everyone was still immersed in shock at the scene before them, a deafening scream was heard again from Li Guifang's house.

"Oh my God, just because I am a helpless widow, I have to endure the humiliation of being bullied. Is this my fate? Oh my God, I really can't live like this anymore. Children, I'm sorry for you. I want to take you to find dad..."

Under the dim light, Li Guifang's figure looked particularly desolate. She had put the prepared rope around her neck, as if she really wanted to end this bitter life.

Xu Xiufang tried her best to stop her, almost crying, "Sister, you have to be more open-minded. The children still need you. This is not your fault. Xie Fei is worse than a beast. You can't just give up like this!"

The news spread quickly among the villagers, and people felt not only shocked but also heavy-hearted.

They didn't even bother to dress themselves and rushed to Li Guifang's house, hoping to prevent the tragedy from happening.

After learning the whole story, Xie Yi felt complicated but unusually calm.

He turned silently, walked to the kitchen, and began to prepare breakfast for the three innocent children.

He chose to remain silent and avoid the issue, not wanting his intervention to exacerbate the dispute between the women.

As long as there is no danger to life, he would rather pretend that he knows nothing. As long as Xu Xiufang treats the three children sincerely, he will not care about anything else.

Compared to Xie Yi's indifference, the villagers of Xiaoxi Village seemed more radical and gossipy. Everyone had a curiosity in their hearts and rushed towards the courtyard where more stories were about to unfold.

"Girl, you have to think positively." Villager Lao Yu looked anxious with a frown on his face.

"Oh my god, this is going to cause a death."

The auntie next to her exclaimed in amazement, shaking the basket in her hand.

The villagers talked at once, pushed and shoved, and crowded together, and finally worked together to pull the pale Li Guifang back from the brink of danger.

Village Party Secretary Uncle Guo stood aside, with beads of sweat on his forehead sparkling in the morning light.

"What on earth is going on? Screaming and trying to commit suicide so early in the morning?"

His words were mixed with doubt and worry. As the backbone of the village, such things made him feel unprecedented pressure.

Li Guifang had already cried her eyes off by this time. Her eyes were red and swollen, tears and snot were mixed together, and her words were intermittent and incoherent.

Xu Xiufang's voice trembled, but a subtle cunning flashed in her eyes. She deliberately exaggerated her fear and said intermittently: "Xie Fei...Xie Fei..."

The villagers gathered in a circle, staring at Xu Xiufang, waiting for an answer, but when they only heard her repeat her name, they couldn't help but jump in anxiety.

"Don't just keep talking about Xie Fei, explain yourself quickly, it's driving me crazy!" Someone in the crowd couldn't help but shout out.

Xu Xiufang took a deep breath and said slowly in a voice that seemed to be still immersed in shock: "Xie Fei ran into someone else's bed in the middle of the night."

When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned and the air seemed to freeze.

At this moment, the villagers suddenly realized that the reason why Xie was running in dishevel and covered with injuries in the early morning was because of this sudden scandal.

"Why is he injured and bleeding?" A villager scratched his head in confusion, as if trying to find a ray of logic in this chaos.

"Yes, I saw him holding his hand there, and the blood was flowing down his leg. He looked so miserable."

Another person interjected, his words full of sympathy but also a bit of gloating.

Under the spotlight of everyone, Li Guifang finally stopped crying. With a complex mixture of grief, anger and relief, she mustered up her courage and said, "He wanted to force me. Fortunately, I had a pair of scissors under my pillow, and that solved the problem."

After the words fell, there was silence all around, and everyone's expressions froze.

The men present all felt an indescribable discomfort, which came from an instinctive resonance and alertness.

The scene was so quiet that the only sounds could be heard were each other's breathing and the occasional crowing of chickens and barking of dogs in the distance.

Those who usually enjoyed making up dirty jokes about Li Guifang, now all lowered their heads and kept silent, their fingers unconsciously rubbing the seams of their pants, as if they were imagining what it would be like if they were in the same situation.

Then, a shiver ran uncontrollably up their spines.

Xu Xiufang keenly captured all these changes and secretly felt happy about Li Guifang's counterattack.

She knew that from now on, no one in this small village would dare to look down on or bully Li Guifang.

Village Party Secretary Uncle Guo frowned. This matter was undoubtedly a hot potato for him.

But his sense of responsibility drove him to stand up: "Don't worry, I'm here, I will do justice in this matter. You are right to do this, this is how you should teach those unruly boys a lesson."

His words were powerful. Even if Xie Fei had a strong background, he would never back down in the face of such a matter.

The comforting work lasted for a long time, until Li Guifang's emotions gradually stabilized, and then everyone dispersed and went about their own business.

Before leaving, Grandpa Guo specifically reminded Xu Xiufang: "You live nearby, so please help out more today."
