Returning wealthy individuals develop their hometowns and become rich in the 1980s

"I'm definitely getting a divorce!"

When Chen Lianxiang said these words, her eyes were so firm. Her marriage had already "died" the day she drank pesticide. When she lay on the door panel, on the verge of death, that coward Liu Guomin actually hesitated!

He watched himself die!

When her fourth brother and his family came to take her to the hospital, her mother-in-law, Liu Lishi, kept saying she had no money and prevented her brothers from taking her to the hospital. She wished she would just drink the pesticide and die there!

Even without the guidance of Chen Dong and his wife, Chen Lianxiang would have resolutely left such a husband's family afterward.

Her only regret now is not that she insisted on marrying Liu Guomin back then, but that she was so stupid as to drink that pesticide!

As for Liu Lishi and Liu Guomin, the reason they were clamoring to go back and refusing to agree to a divorce, Chen Lianxiang knew their true intentions. It was simply because they saw their brother Chen Dong return and the Chen family prosper, and they couldn't bear to part with him.

If they divorce me, they won't be able to cling to me anymore!

They panicked!

But how could I possibly do as they wish? I've known them all for the past ten years!

If he were to back down and endure it now, the Liu family would cling to the entire Chen family like a leech, causing even more trouble later on.

In the end, the only one who will lose face is herself, the married-out daughter of the Chen family. Therefore, the marriage must end!

Liu Guomin was shocked by the resolute attitude his wife Chen Lianxiang displayed once again. It was just like more than ten years ago, when he went to the Chen family's ancestral home with a letter to propose marriage, only to be rejected by his father-in-law Chen Xiangui. At that time, Chen Lianxiang had also stood up and shouted at her father Chen Xiangui.

"I'm determined to get married!"

Liu Guomin's lips trembled as he tried to win back Chen Lianxiang's heart, "Lianxiang, we've been husband and wife for over ten years, do you really not want to be with me anymore? Are you really that heartless!"

"Heh heh heh! Heartless? You dare call me heartless, Liu Guomin?" Chen Lianxiang looked at him, her eyes showing no hatred whatsoever, only indifference!

"I've been married into your Liu family for twelve years, raised three children, and haven't heard a single kind word from your mother," Chen Lianxiang pointed at Liu Lishi. "Your mother complains that my brothers aren't close to your family, and she's always making veiled accusations. And what can you do besides tell me to endure it!"

"All you ever say is that your mother is old. I've been working like a slave for the Liu family every day, and you've never said a word of justice for me!"

"And you, Liu Jiashui, you're here pretending to be a good person now," Chen Lianxiang pointed at Liu Jiashui beside her, "Last December, just because I refused to go to my parents' house to borrow twenty yuan for you, you pointed your finger at me and cursed me. Did you ever treat me like your sister-in-law?!"

As soon as Chen Lianxiang finished speaking, Chen Zailong and Chen Zaixing glared angrily at Liu Jiashui, who was still pretending to be wronged. Liu Jiashui didn't dare to speak anymore, but Chen Lianxiang didn't stop, as if she wanted to express all the pent-up feelings in her heart and have a complete falling out with the Liu family!

"Liu Guomin, you always say things like, 'Your mother is old, let her have her way, Jia Shui is just outspoken, she meant no harm,'" Chen Lianxiang said, then laughed. "When she handed me that pesticide bottle, forcing me to 'go die if you dare,' was she also just being outspoken?"

"Fuck your mother!"

Chen Zaixing flew into a rage after his sister Chen Lianxiang said those words. He pointed at Liu Jiashui, who was cowering behind her husband Fang Songmao, and was about to hit her, yelling, "You bitch, I'll fucking beat you to death!"

Seeing his youngest son's reaction, Chen Xiangui shouted, "Youngest son, don't be impulsive! Don't hit her in the face! This woman lives off her looks; you can't do anything rash!"

Chen Zaixing rushed forward, kicked Fang Songmao aside, and slapped Liu Jiashui hard across the face, causing Liu Jiashui's entire face to swell up immediately.

"Ahhh! Murder! Help! Chen Zaixing has killed someone!"

Seeing his wife being beaten, Fang Songmao rushed to pull Chen Zaixing away, pleading, "Stop hitting her! Let's talk this out!"

Chen Zaixing kicked Liu Jiashui in the stomach, causing her to clutch her stomach and lie down in pain. She was then reluctantly pulled away by her fourth brother, Chen Zailong, who had also come to break up the fight.

"Oh dear! Murder! This is outrageous! The Chen family ganged up on me and killed someone in broad daylight! My poor daughter!"

When Liu Lishi let out that scream, the villagers in Lianzhai who were watching from outside and couldn't see her thought that Liu Jiashui was dead, and they all started to shout.

"Is he dead? Let me see!"

"Good job, Zai Xing! Anyone who tries to sow discord like this, I'd cheer even if they were killed!"

"This old woman should be beaten to death too! I've seen plenty of wicked mothers-in-law tormenting their daughters-in-law, but I've never seen one who conspires with her daughter to drive her daughter-in-law to suicide! Beat her!"

Listening to the clamor of the villagers from the surrounding villages, Liu Lishi thought to herself that since it wasn't her village's home ground, she was at a disadvantage, and there wasn't even a single person to come out and "reason" with her.

At this moment, Liu Lishi's impression of Lianzhai Village worsened. She cursed inwardly, wishing that everyone in Lianzhai Village would have sons without an anus!

"Liu Li, you jinx at home, you're a cursed woman who brings misfortune to your husband! Today I'll tear your rotten mouth apart, it's stinking more than a public toilet!"

Seeing that her youngest son had already made a move, Huang Lanzhi could no longer bear it. Despite her gentle and soft-spoken manner in front of her mother-in-law, Wei Shufen, she was known for her fiery temper in Lianzhai Village. She rushed up to Liu Lishi, grabbed her hair, and slapped her twice across the face.

When Liu Li's second daughter-in-law, He Guiqin, saw her mother-in-law being beaten, she thought of intervening to prevent her mother-in-law from suffering a greater loss. However, she didn't consider where they were. It was at the gate of the Chen family's ancestral home, and all four of the Chen family's daughters-in-law, except for the eldest daughter-in-law Zeng Xia, were still watching.

Seeing their mother-in-law, Huang Lanzhi, being slapped by Liu Lishi while He Guiqin was holding her hand, the four daughters-in-law immediately rushed over. Gu Ying and Ma Jiao restrained He Guiqin and each slapped her, saying, "Trying to take sides, huh? I'll teach you to do that!"

Lin Ruiqing and Wu Fangru rushed to Liu Lishi's side. Wu Fangru imitated her husband Chen Zaixing and kicked Liu Lishi hard in the back of the knee. Liu Lishi cried out in pain and immediately knelt down. Her knee hit the stone pavement and she cried out in pain.

Lin Ruiqing grabbed one of Liu Li's arms to stop her from retaliating, while Wu Fangru grabbed the other arm. Huang Lanzhi continued to pull on Liu Li's hair and slap her face repeatedly.

The fight between the women left Liu Guomin and Liu Guoliang, who were standing nearby, dumbfounded. Fang Songmao, who was supporting his wife, sighed and shook his head repeatedly when he saw his two brothers-in-law standing there dumbfounded.
