Reborn 1980, the island military wife is charming and sassy

Chapter 268 Domestic Violence

Xie Yanqiu and Zhou Qi came to the village committee early in the morning. Although it was still early, Yang Kuihua had already arranged the layout at the village committee.

There was a special place reserved for Xie Yanqiu on the long table.

"Yanqiu, you and Zhou Qi sit next to the secretary."

She pulled up a chair and smiled very kindly.

Yang Kuihua had been waiting for this day for too long. Although it is now a big trend to ban sons over daughters, the old idea of ​​favoring sons over daughters has long been deeply rooted in the minds of the villagers.

Every year, she alone deals with countless tragedies caused by patriarchal preference.

The fellow villagers who grew up in the village have little legal awareness, and the victims have family concerns. Most of the time, everyone will swallow their anger and make the big issue trivial, let alone call the police like Zhou Qi and use legal weapons to protect themselves.

Fortunately, this time Xie Yanqiu returned to the village, the village chief and secretary really began to realize the horror of patriarchal preference.

They didn't care before, perhaps because they were men. As the beneficiaries of son preference, few people could sympathize with the feelings of the victims.

Now that she finally realizes the harmfulness of this kind of thinking, as a women director, she must be the first to charge forward and get this matter done.

The villagers heard that there was going to be a meeting in the village early this morning, and after breakfast they all went to the village committee in groups.

Before nine o'clock, many villagers gathered in the village committee compound. Xie Yanqiu looked closely and saw many familiar faces inside.

In addition to the few villagers who helped her at the village chief's house, there were also many old people she knew before.

Many of them were little girls about her age.

Different from the glamorous Xie Yanqiu, the little girls of the same age as her were all mottled and worn by the years. Xie Yanqiu glanced over and her eyes shrank for a moment. She saw Xie Qing in the crowd with whom she had a particularly close relationship when she was a child.

The woman was holding her child in the crowd, with an obvious bruise at the corner of her eye.

Xie Yanqiu's eyes darkened. She remembered that Xie Qing had no birthmark since he was a child, and the bruises on his face now could only be injuries!

As soon as the speculation came into his mind, the man next to Xie Qing slapped Xie Qing in the face, and the surrounding villagers suddenly fell silent.

The sound of men cursing came from the crowd.

"I asked you to leave quickly this morning! Leave quickly! Save a seat for me! Now I can't even sit in the first row, bitch! I'll beat you to death!"

After this slap, the little girl in Xie Qing's arms was so frightened that she cried.

The village chief couldn't stand it anymore and shouted to the man with a loudspeaker: "Chen Liu! In public places, please be careful of the impact!"

Chen Liu was capable around his wife, but he was still a coward outside. Hearing the village chief's warning, San San put down his hand and glared at Xie Qing.

Although Xie Yanqiu couldn't hear what he said, he could probably read the man's lip language just by looking at his lip shape: "I'll beat you to death when I get home!"

Xie Qing shuddered, and Xie Yanqiu's eyes darkened.

The purpose of today's village committee meeting is to publicize the dangers of favoring boys over girls and feudal superstition.

As a victim of two kinds of thinking, Xie Yanqiu stood up and told everyone about his experience, including how he gained a new life through his own efforts after leaving his original family.

Zhou Qi, wearing a navy blue cotton coat, sat next to Xie Yanqiu. He looked dignified and upright, attracting the attention of many girls.

So much so that everyone listened to Xie Yanqiu's speech, and their eyes kept lingering on the man.

At the end, after Xie Yanqiu finished talking about his own experience, many people became emotional.

Xie Yanqiu is not an exception among them. Many girls who grew up in the village have Xie Yanqiu's shadow in them.

But Xie Yanqiu was luckier than them. Xie Yanqiu was happily married and had a family that supported her father-in-law and mother-in-law unconditionally.

After she left her original family, every step she took felt like God was making up for her suffering in the first half of her life.

Women envy Xie Yanqiu and are also jealous of Xie Yanqiu, but the current situation that they are unable to change is like a bundle of hemp rope that tightly binds all women in the abyss.

They are more powerless.

The village chief, secretary and women's director know that this matter has a long way to go.

To this end, the secretary proposed to cooperate with the police station. We would discuss it at noon and post an announcement in the afternoon. From today on, anyone who encounters boys over girls or is subjected to domestic violence can call the police or ask the village committee for help, and the village committee will call the police or mediate on their behalf. .

As soon as this announcement came out, it caused an uproar in Xiejia Village. Many people lamented that this centuries-old tradition was about to change.

Xie Yanqiu finished the meeting in the morning, and the scene where he saw Xie Qing at the village committee in the morning was always in his mind.

The man next to her should be her man...

Xie Yanqiu pondered for a long time. Ever since the village meeting ended in the morning, he had been feeling uneasy and always felt that something big was going to happen today.

Zhou Qi, who came in to pour hot water, saw that the woman was thinking heavily, so he poured her a cup of hot water to warm her body, and said gently: "What's wrong? The child kicked you again?"

Xie Yanqiu shook his head, unable to suppress the worry in his heart: "Zhou Qi, I saw my former friend during the day, and I always feel that she is not doing well now."

"Do you have anything else to do this afternoon? Let's go to Xie Qing's house and have a look."

"okay."

In the afternoon, Xie Yanqiu and Zhou Qi went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some canned fruits and snacks, and clothes for their children. Xie Yanqiu took Zhou Qi to Xie Qing's house while searching for memories.

Xie Qing got married earlier than she did. The man was the son of the village farmer. Xie Yanqiu only saw Xie Qing on Xie Qing's wedding day. From then on, Xie Qing seemed to have lost contact.

If it hadn't been for the village meeting in the morning, Xie Yanqiu didn't know if he would have been able to see Xie Qing in this life.

The two walked on the dirt road all the way to Xie Qing's house. It was freezing outside. When Xie Yanqiu arrived, her feet were almost numb from the cold.

As soon as they arrived at the door, Xie Yanqiu didn't ask whose house it was.

The angry sounds of men, the crying of children, and the angry sounds of women came from inside, only reaching the ears of two people.

Xie Yanqiu's face turned cold.

She was sure that this was Xie Qing's home.

Although there were two angry voices just now, Xie Qing's name came out of the man's mouth.

"go in."

She wanted to see how powerful this man was, who had just finished a meeting in the morning and was violently abused in the afternoon.

At this time, Xie Qing's family was on the kang.

The man knocked the woman off the earthen kang with a slap and fell to the ground. The little girl Xie Qing had hugged that morning huddled in the corner of the kang, covering her ears and crying.

Chen Liu couldn't understand his hatred, so he went down to the ground and grabbed Xie Qing's neck and turned him over.

clap clap!

With two crisp slaps, two red and swollen fingers suddenly appeared on the woman's cheeks.

Xie Qing's mother-in-law, Li Guizhi, not only did not stop her son's violence, but stood aside and watched coldly, saying, "Beat him to death!"

"This vixen couldn't give birth to two sons, but she gave birth to a loser, and she still had the nerve to go around seducing men! I heard others said that when she saw Xie Yanqiu's man today, her eyes went straight!"

She spat on Xie Qing's body with a look of disdain: "Son, beat me to death!"

After the man got the order to be his own mother, his arrogance suddenly increased. He felt that beating with his hands was not satisfying, so he picked up the feather duster next to him and raised his hand to hit Xie Qing.

Just when Xie Qing thought he was going to die today, a big hand with sharp bones stopped the man's feather duster from mid-air.

The next second, a cold and fierce male voice sounded from above the head.
