Chapter 2192: A heavy past
Li junyu held his forehead, feeling a little helpless.
The man sighed and said,”looks like I’ll have to tell you everything that happened in the past, from beginning to end.” Mengmeng, you might understand after listening to this story.”
It turned out that Zhan ruxue’s mother was called Lin zhenshu. She had married into the Zhan family in her early years and had met li junyu’s mother, Yue xuexin, at the ball.
Lin zhenshu’s personality was gentle and even a little cowardly. Not long after Zhan ruxue’s father, Zhan mang, was married, he had been indulging in debauchery outside and almost never returned home.
Because Lin zhenshu was unable to win over her husband’s heart, and she only had one daughter, Zhan ruxue, she was often bullied and humiliated by her in-laws.
Fortunately, because Lin zhenshu met Yue xuexin at the ball, the two of them had similar interests and soon became close friends.
Lin zhenshu had a gentle personality, and would often bring Zhan ruxue to the Li family to play. Each time they played, it would be two to three days, and they would often not return home.
Li junyu seemed to have recalled something from a long time ago, and his gaze gradually became distant.”Aunt Shu’s actions are very strange. Although Zhan mang is only a branch of the Zhan clan, he is still a large clan. As the daughter-in-law of the Zhan family, she brought her daughter to live in another family’s house all day long. This naturally caused criticism.
“After that, my mother brought me, Junting, junche, and Zhan ruxue out. Junting mischievously spilled the ice cream on Zhan ruxue. When his mother helped her change her clothes, she discovered that her body was covered in bruises from being beaten up.
Some of those scars are old, some are new, some look like they were whipped, and some look like they were pinched.”
Yue xuexin immediately went back to question Lin zhenshu.
She didn’t believe that the kind and weak Lin zhenshu would do such a thing.
Li junyu replied,’aunt Shu refused to say anything at first. She would rather cut off all ties with my mother than to reveal a single word. That day, she left in tears with Zhan ruxue and did not appear in public for nearly half a year. My mother herself was the mother of three, and she was angry because of this. She didn’t understand why aunt Shu did this, and she was so angry that she didn’t go to her for half a year.”
Who knew that one night half a year later, the gate of li garden was knocked again.
Lin zhenshu carried Zhan ruxue, who was covered in blood, and appeared outside li garden. She handed Zhan ruxue over to Yue xuexin, pleading for her to take care of her daughter on her behalf.
It turned out that Zhan mang had violent tendencies. Although he often didn’t return home, he liked to abuse Lin Zhen Shu every time he did.
After that, he became even more violent and started to abuse Zhan ruxue.
Lin zhenshu was naturally weak, and the Lin family was proud of being in-laws with the Zhan family. They didn’t care about her life or death, and were even more unwilling to let her get a divorce.
Even after knowing that she and her daughter were in danger, she blamed her instead and said,’serves her right that she gave birth to a daughter. If she had given birth to a son, he wouldn’t have to suffer like this.’
Lin zhenshu was almost at her wit’s end. Fortunately, she met Yue xuexin at this time.
Yue xuexin was beautiful and generous. More importantly, she was the eldest miss of the Redington family and the eldest Madam of the Li family.
As long as Lin zhenshu often used the excuse that Yue xuexin asked her to go over to li garden to accompany him, she could take her daughter away for a few days.
Originally, due to their frequent visits to li garden, Lin zhenshu and Zhan ruxue were finally able to catch their breath for a few days under the occasional abuse.
However, because she was too weak, she didn’t dare to tell Yue xuexin that she had been beaten up by Zhan mang. She could only carry her daughter back.
Staying in the Zhan clan for such a long period of time would definitely mean that he had come into contact with Zhan mang.
Zhan mang had never liked Lin zhenshu’s cowardice. During that period of time, his career had not been smooth, and he had come back to vent his anger on Lin zhenshu after suffering outside.
Li junyu replied ,’when Shuyi carried Zhan ruxue over and entrusted her to my mother, she was covered in blood. The blood is the blood of Zhan mang.”
Finally, the situation exploded. Even a rabbit would bite when it was anxious.
Moreover, Zhan ruxue’s strength was so great at such a young age that she couldn’t help but resist Zhan mang, and was almost beaten to death by him.
And so, that night, Lin Zhen Shu finally couldn’t stand her husband’s brutal beating of her daughter. She picked up a fruit knife and stabbed Zhan mang to death.
And all of this happened right before Zhan ruxue’s eyes.
