Chapter 45 Three Legs
"You can't stop the fight. The more you try to stop him, the more he'll beat the fisherman girl!"

The old lady sighed, while Tang Qiyue's face was full of disapproval.

There are only zero and countless times of domestic violence. If it cannot be stopped in time, no one knows what the consequences will be in the end.

Either the fisherwoman is dead, or she has gone crazy.

Tang Qiyue is not from the fishing village. She admires the fisherman's wife very much. It is already very impressive for a woman from a fishing village to insist on going to sea as a divers to support her family. However, her family members do not cherish her and even want to beat her.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Tang Qiyue simply didn't care about anything else and decided to bear the consequences of beating his wife in front of her.

Xiaoyang and the aunt wanted to stop Tang Qiyue, but thinking that Tang Qiyue came from the other side of the island, her words might be more effective than theirs, they did not try to stop her.

When Tang Qiuyue entered the fisherman's house, many people in the fishing village gathered around curiously and pulled the old lady to ask what was going on.

The old lady couldn't explain it clearly, so she took them to the fisherman's home.

The yard of the fisherman's house was built with stones and was not very high, only about one meter. It could only block some wild beasts, but it could not stop people at all.

The gate was not closed at all, and Tang Qiyue went straight into the yard.

The fisherwoman was being pulled by her hair and kicked in the yard by her husband. The drunken man was cursing and didn't know how hard he would hit her.

The fisherwoman curled up on the ground, holding her head, without any intention of resisting. It was obvious that she was used to this kind of treatment.

Tang Qiuyue could see that it was not that Yu Niang did not want to resist, but that resistance was useless. After all, everyone around her thought that beating their wives was a natural thing, so her resistance seemed to be a joke.

When the fisherman's man continued to kick subconsciously, he found that he did not kick anyone, but the person was still hanging in the air.

Before he could figure out what was happening, his body flew out in a parabola and hit the ground not far away.

Many people lying on the courtyard wall cried out in surprise.

No one could understand what they were seeing.

"Who is it? You're looking for death!"

The fisherman's husband struggled to get up from the ground and drunkenly looked for the culprit. When he saw Tang Qiyue, he clenched his fists and was about to hit him.

As a result, his body, which was softened by the alcohol, was no match for Tang Qiyue. Tang Qiyue didn't even have to use any strength. With just one kick, the domestic violence man fell to the ground.

Probably because they had never seen a woman beating a man, the women and children in the fishing village were a little dumbfounded, but soon their faces were filled with excitement.

The isolated fishing village is still influenced by years of feudal thinking, which believes that women are appendages of the family and can be beaten and scolded by men at will.

It is estimated that among married couples, there are few wives who have not been beaten by their husbands.

Normally they would just swallow their anger and endure the beatings from their husbands without daring to resist. But today, when they saw Tang Qiyue kicking the man away with such a calm look, they realized that men are not so invincible.

The fisherman's wife finally realized something was wrong. She struggled to stand up from the ground. When she saw that it was Tang Qiyue, her expression was complicated. She didn't dare to face Tang Qiyue with her swollen face and lowered her head in shame.

"Are you OK?"

Tang Qiyue noticed that Yu Niang was feeling unnatural, and was afraid that something might be wrong with her health, so she moved closer to ask.

The fisherwoman shook her head, "Thank you!"

She knew that if Tang Qiyue had not shown up today, she would probably have been beaten by the man and would have been lying in bed for days.

But she still felt very uncomfortable being seen in such a miserable state.

Tang Qiyue waved her hand: "No need to thank me, it's just something I did conveniently. I originally wanted to ask if you had time to take me to catch seafood!" Tang Qiyue did not ask about the domestic violence, but glanced at the neighbors around the yard and mentioned the seafood catching matter.

The fisherwoman nodded: "I have time!"

She didn't want to stay at this time. One reason was that she was afraid that the man would attack her again, and the other was that she didn't want to be talked about by people in the village.

The fisherman tidied her hair, picked up the wooden bucket and asked Tang Qiyue to go out.

After the fisherman's man was kicked twice, his alcohol-soaked brain finally regained some rationality.

"Stop, who are you, bitch?"

The drunken man only saw a beauty standing in the yard. Although she had a cold face, she was still more beautiful than he had ever seen. His already not very clear mind felt a little dizzy, and he even wanted to get closer and touch her.

The fisherman wanted to stop him, but was stopped by Tang Qiyue. She waited for the man to get closer and this time kicked the domestic violence man in the stomach.

Compared with the previous two times, Tang Qiuyue used a little more force this time, resulting in the domestic violence man being kicked and vomited, and he fell to the ground completely, unable to get up.

However, no one went to help. They were more curious about Tang Qiyue's identity than the domestic violence man.

"You should be more clear-headed now, right? If you want to know who I am, you can go to the other side of the island!"

Tang Qiyue said this coldly and pulled the fisherwoman outside.

But after walking a few steps, she turned back and warned the domestic violence man: "The fisherwoman is my friend. If I find out that you beat her again, I don't mind letting you experience the feeling of being beaten again!"

The domestic violence man's mind was completely clear and he realized that he had provoked an evil spirit.

Everyone in the fishing village knew that the people living on the other side of the island were all soldiers. The village chief repeatedly reminded them not to provoke those people, as they were all armed with guns and would kill people for fun.

Because during training, they would do target shooting and the sound of gunfire could be heard by people in the fishing village on the island. They knew too well how brutal the people on the other side of the island were.

The fisherman's wife did not look back, but just stood quietly by. She knew what kind of person her husband was. When he was drunk, he was a madman, and when he sobered up, he would kneel in front of her and confess.

But the damage has been done, and repentance cannot make it go away.

If divorce was not prohibited in the fishing village, she would have wanted to leave this man long ago.

Not to mention the man who was lying on the ground with a pale face and dared not move, as soon as Tang Qiyue and Yu Niang left the yard, Auntie and Xiaoyang surrounded them.

The old lady lifted up the fisherwoman's hair and saw the bruises on her face. She kept saying things like "you're committing a sin" but she couldn't say anything to help.

The fisherwoman smiled and said, "I'm going to go fishing first, so you can go back and get busy!"

The fisherman's wife showed no emotional change, and she did not show any gratitude for the old lady's concern. She just asked Tang Qiyue to go to the beach.

After leaving the fishing village, the expression that the fisherwoman had tried so hard to maintain on her face finally collapsed, but she did not cry. She just tried her best to remind Tang Qiyue to go fishing.

The tide had not yet receded, so Tang Qiyue pulled the fisherman's wife to find a dry place to sit down.

"Can I ask you a question?"

Tang Qiyue looked at the sea and asked softly.

The fisherwoman hummed, as if ready to clear up the confusion.

"If you had a child, would you still endure being beaten like this?"
