Chapter 282 Splashed Li Qiulan's face
Uncle Li opened his mouth wide, thinking to himself, "Has my wife taken the wrong medicine? Has she suddenly changed her mind?"
In the past, she would avoid getting involved in this girl's family troubles as much as possible, fearing that she would get stuck and be unable to get rid of them.
Today, not only are they actively trying to get closer to him, but they're also going to bypass him, the head of the household?
Something's not right!
Li Cheng and Li Cun didn't care about their father's expression. Since their father was uncooperative, the two brothers used all their strength to practically lift him by the armpits and carry him out the door.
Seeing that he was walking further and further away, Uncle Li finally came to his senses. He struggled a few times, and once his feet touched the ground, he broke free from his two sons' grasp.
The two sons said fiercely, "You two brats, explain yourselves. Doesn't your mother never interfere in your aunt's family affairs?"
"Why are you taking the initiative to handle this today, without letting me, the head of the family, get involved?"
Li Cheng turned his head to the side, his expression serious. "I don't know!"
Uncle Li then looked at his second son, Li Cun. The eldest son was honest, while the second son was quick to speak. If the eldest didn't say it, the younger one would definitely.
Li Cunzhao saw through his father's little scheme and covered his mouth tightly. His mother had instructed him not to let his father know a single word.
Otherwise, if this family really falls apart in the future, let him live with his father.
Uncle Li: "..." Uncle Li was dejected.
Seeing her two sons guarding against her like they were wolves, she couldn't help but feel angry.
He stomped his foot angrily, "Fine, I won't say anything then. I'll just stay silent. As the eldest brother, I'm like a father to my wife. She has to take care of my younger sister's family affairs. Can't I even take a look?"
"Unfilial son!" he snorted, then turned and went back.
Li Cheng and Li Cun exchanged a glance.
They hurriedly followed, exchanging knowing glances the whole way.
Li Cun: Brother, Dad said he won't speak!
Li Cheng: Do you believe it?
Li Cun: Do you believe it?
The two brothers exchanged a knowing smile. "Don't believe him! At worst, we'll just cover his mouth."
In the Li family compound, Li Cheng's wife and Li Cun's wife brought out two slightly less worn chairs from inside the house and made them sit down for Lin Chang'er and Li's eldest aunt.
Li Qiulan's eyes were bloodshot, but she was bound like a cicada pupa, unable to move her hands and feet, and her mouth was stuffed with her own smelly shoe.
All it could do was lodge a protesting "woof woof".
Lin Chang'er found it noisy and frowned in displeasure.
Aunt Li, with her keen observation skills, immediately discovered the crux of the problem.
He coughed lightly twice and said to Li Qiulan, "Little sister, an elder sister-in-law is like a mother. In the past, your brother always spoiled you and made up for you, so your sister-in-law never said anything."
"But look at what you've done all these years! You're getting more and more ridiculous as you get older."
"Today, your sister-in-law has played the villain. It's not your turn yet, so keep quiet."
Li Qiulan's eyes widened, feeling as if she had seen a ghost. How could her sister-in-law have the nerve to say such things?
Did she not care about them before because she didn't want to? Yes, that's right, she didn't want to care about them and thought it was troublesome.
Why did you rush here today to show off some great righteousness?
As Li Qiulan continued to curse, all outsiders could hear was her wailing, which grew even sharper.
Lin Chang'er frowned even more deeply.
Aunt Li's expression darkened further, especially after receiving an unfriendly look from Li Qiulan. She scoffed, "Eldest daughter-in-law, go pour a bowl of water and tell your aunt to wake up."
Li Cheng's wife poured a bowl of cold water nearby and splashed it on Li Qiulan's face.
Li Qiulan stared in disbelief, inwardly screaming, "She's gone mad! This woman must be insane! How dare she treat me like this? I must make her brother divorce this poisonous woman!"
Seeing her soaked to the bone made Lin Chang'er feel much better.
It's better to destroy someone's spirit than to kill them. She was stopped by Uncle Li earlier and didn't get hit, so her anger has subsided now.
With a slight smile, she said, "She looks like she's lost her mind, so she probably can't speak properly. Let's start with Li Da!"
Seeing that this chapter was over, Aunt Li naturally had no objections, "Alright, let's start with Li Da."
Li Da hadn't recovered yet; his whole body felt like it had fallen apart, and he collapsed to the ground, in pain with every movement.
Finally, he was carried by the coastal defense team and slumped against the pillar.
Lin Chang'er looked at him, who looked like a mudfish, and then at Li Da's wife, who was still unconscious, and Li Chuan, who looked lost and disoriented.
Yu felt he hadn't hit him hard enough, but he definitely couldn't kill him.
Suppressing his anger, he said, "Auntie, you saw it too. Li Chuan's mother was beaten like this. If I were Li Chuan's mother's family, I would never agree to this."
"Now Li Chuan Niang is only clinging to life with the help of ginseng slices. I don't know if the old doctor can bring her back to health."
"No matter what, we must inform her family first, so that they will have someone to speak on whether she stays or leaves."
This was perfectly reasonable, but Aunt Li frowned. "Chang'er, you don't know this. Li Chuan's parents passed away a long time ago. Only her brother and sister-in-law are left. And her sister-in-law is not an easy person to get along with."
Fearing that Lin Chang'er might misunderstand that she was afraid of trouble, Aunt Li quickly explained, "Li Chuan's mother was sold to Li Da as a wife by her sister-in-law for two taels of silver. If you want to ask someone to come and stand up for Li Chuan's mother, it might backfire."
When Li Chuan's family comes, they will only demand compensation, and this compensation will not be for Li Chuan's mother.
Rather than doing that, it would be better not to call on her family and instead give Li Chuan's mother some benefits.
Lin Chang'er: "..."
Lin Chang'er clicked her tongue, feeling somewhat embarrassed. Then she thought, "This is ancient times, where women have a low status. Such things are probably commonplace."
However, Li Chuan's mother's fate is unknown, and Li Chuan is still a child, the son of Li Da.
If the victim can't get justice and no one speaks up for them, won't this matter just pass by in a muddle?
Domestic violence is either a one-time occurrence or an endless cycle.
Unless they get a divorce, Li Chuan's mother will likely be in mortal danger once they leave the hospital.
But she can't be sent back to her parents' home, and staying at her husband's home means certain death...
Even if Li Er comes back, there's nothing he, as the younger uncle, can do.
You can't expect your brother-in-law to support his divorced sister-in-law and nephew, can you?
Lin Chang'er had a headache!
At this moment, Li Qingyang, who had been by Li Chuan's side, gently nudged Li Chuan's arm and whispered, "Brother Chuan, please beg your third aunt to take you and your eldest aunt with you!"
“If you stay, your father will definitely beat you to death.”
"Brother Xiaochuan, look, your aunt is in this state. Your father and grandmother definitely won't call a doctor for her. You must beg your third aunt..."
Li Chuan, who had been in a daze, suddenly seemed to wake up from a dream. His eyes, which had been unfocused, suddenly brightened. "Save my mother! Save my mother!"
His gaze swept over Aunt Li and Lin Chang'er, finally settling precisely on Lin Chang'er.
Li Chuan stumbled forward and knelt before Lin Chang'er. "Third Aunt, please save my mother. Take me and my mother with you. Once my father recovers, he will definitely beat us to death."
"And my grandmother, she'll beat us to death too."
"Third Aunt, save us, save us..."
The emaciated little boy had bloodstains on his nose, mouth, and ears that hadn't been wiped clean, as if he had suffered torture. It was a sight that was hard not to feel sorry for him...
