Xu Xiufang noticed the subtle changes in Xu Xiaohua. She became more independent and more opinionated, which made Xu Xiufang feel very gratified.

"Then you must be careful."

She reminded him again, her heart filled with blessings for Xu Xiaohua.

After careful preparation, Xu Xiufang and Xie Yi took the children on a journey to the city. What she didn't realize was that not long after she left, Guo Shunqiang's gloomy figure quietly arrived.

When Xu Xiaohua saw Guo Shunqiang, although she was no longer as terrified as before, she still felt a little uneasy deep in her heart.

She pretended to be calm, pretending not to see anything, and walked straight into the house, intending to close the door.

In her opinion, Guo Shunqiang at this moment was like a vicious dog that she met on the road. As long as she didn't provoke him, she should be able to get along peacefully.

However, she overlooked that the dog was not only vicious but also indiscriminate and could attack at any time. "

Shame on you! You hide when you see me, do you still have any sense of shame?"

Guo Shunqiang rushed in angrily and grabbed Xu Xiaohua's hair with such force that Xu Xiaohua's scalp went numb.

But unlike in the past, she is no longer the weak woman who accepts everything. She clenched her teeth and did not let the tears fall easily. Her tenacity and indomitable spirit seemed to tell everyone that she is no longer the weak person who was bullied by others.

Does crying really work?

In the face of this cold reality, tears seem to be a powerless accusation. Not only can they not resolve the current predicament, but they are like a layer of mist, blurring the strong outline and making people look more vulnerable, as if they are a small boat in a storm, at the mercy of the waves of fate.

"You bastard, besides shaking your fist at your wife, do you know what responsibility is and what accountability is?"

Xu Xiaohua's voice pierced the air, its high pitch mixed with unquestionable anger and sadness.

This roar was like a bolt of thunder that shook the tranquility of the surroundings and made Li Guifang, who was busy in the yard, feel a sudden tightening of heart.

She was bending over washing clothes, her hands covered with foam. She heard a heated argument coming from next door and suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.

Without thinking too much, she quickly dropped the clothes in her hands, picked up the sharpened hatchet next to her, and ran towards Xu Xiaohua's house in a hurry.

In the early morning, Li Guifang clearly saw Xu Xiaohua and her family of five going out talking and laughing. How come Xu Xiaohua was home alone at this moment, and there was such a fierce argument?

The only possibility is that the Guo family, which has caused headaches for the entire village, is causing trouble again.

There was no time to gather more villagers. Li Guifang held the hatchet tightly, ran and shouted for help at the top of her lungs, hoping that someone would hear her voice and come to help.

It was the slack season for farming, and most villagers were still enjoying breakfast at home and were not in a hurry to go out to work.

Li Guifang's cry for help was like an emergency horn, instantly breaking the tranquility of the village.

Hearing the cry for help, the villagers put down their bowls and chopsticks and ran towards Xu Xiaohua's home without any prior agreement.

In this closely connected small village, who can turn a blind eye to the difficulties of their neighbors?

Not far away, Xie Zhi, who was about to leave, also keenly noticed the abnormality in his third brother's house.

Without a moment's hesitation, he turned around and rushed towards Xu Xiaohua's house, saving lives as if putting out a fire.

Xu Xiufang in the car felt the tense atmosphere and pulled at Xie Yi's sleeve nervously, her voice full of worry: "Is my sister okay?"

Xie Yi frowned slightly, but his tone was firm: "Don't worry, when I sent Xie Zhi back last night, I asked him to pay more attention to the situation over there."

Although Xu Xiufang was somewhat comforted, her worries were not completely dispelled: "How about we go back and take a look?"

Xie Yi understood her concerns. This trip was originally intended to deal with some family affairs, so he squeezed out time specifically for this.

He patted the back of Xu Xiufang's hand and said gently, "It's up to you. You can check the goods at any time, but I only have one sister."

It's not that Xie Yi is unsympathetic, it's just that the long-term estrangement between family members has made him a little slow in understanding certain emotions.

Xu Xiaohua's role in this family is like that of a loving mother. Xie Yi is not a heartless person and can naturally feel her warmth and tenacity through her efforts and sacrifices.

Xu Xiufang felt the same way and hurriedly got out of the car holding Xiaobao in her arms.

Xie Yi led Dabao and Erbao to follow closely behind, and the family's hearts were closely connected.

"Take the children home first. I will contact my classmates and ask them to bring people from the Women's Federation to deal with it immediately."

Xie Yi knew very well that if he simply returned without a practical solution, all his efforts would be in vain.

What's more, since the divorce has been proposed, there should be no dragging on and it should be resolved cleanly and decisively to avoid today's worries and fears for both Xu Xiaohua and the children in the future.

"Okay, I'll take the children back first, and you take the people from the Women's Federation directly to Guojia Village to resolve this matter once and for all."

Xu Xiufang's eyes revealed determination. Perhaps this heavy worry was caused by the inseparable family ties. Blood is thicker than water, and flesh and blood are connected. How can it be easily severed?

In Xiaoxi Village, Guo Shunqiang's ferocious face looked particularly terrifying in the morning light. He tightly grasped Xu Xiaohua's arm and asked viciously: "I have provided you with food and drink for these years, but you shamelessly hid in your sister's house. Do you want to serve other men with your sister?"

Facing the man who once made her heartbroken, Xu Xiaohua's eyes were full of disgust. The emotion surged like a tide, almost drowning her.

She was filled with confusion deep in her heart, not understanding why she had chosen to endure in the past and was reluctant to extricate herself from this painful marriage.

But now, everything has become extremely clear - the only way out between her and Guo Shunqiang is divorce.

"Do you think all men in the world are the same as you?"

Xu Xiaohua's voice was calm and firm, without the slightest fear.

She knew that if she showed fear, it would only make Guo Shunqiang more arrogant.

Guo Shunqiang noticed the change in Xu Xiaohua. She was no longer the submissive wife who obeyed him blindly. This made him feel unprecedentedly flustered.

He began to look around, feeling very nervous, fearing that he would fail again and cause unnecessary trouble.

Although Guo Shunqiang acted rashly, he was not stupid and soon realized that Xu Xiufang was not present.

There was no one at home, so this seemed to be the best time for him to teach Xu Xiaohua a lesson.

He clenched his fists, ready to teach Xu Xiaohua a severe lesson, as long as no one was killed.

Just as Guo Shunqiang's fist was about to fall, Xu Xiaohua closed her eyes tightly, her teeth chattered, and she protected her head with both hands, silently praying that this blow would not endanger her life as usual, when a loud "Stop!"
