Around lunchtime, the news of the incident had spread to the mountains where the brother and sister were working.
Hearing everything, tears welled up in Su Ning's eyes, and he asked, "Is that real?"
Su Ping replied with anger, "I'm afraid it is true!"
When their brother-in-law first married their Elder Sister, he treated her kindly. However, as time passed, she aged prematurely from the laborious work she endured without any time for personal care. Their brother-in-law began to look down on her, even going to the extent of sleeping in separate beds, claiming she distracted him from his studies. This information came from their four-year-old niece.
Su Ning couldn't contain his emotions and broke into tears. "Our Elder Sister toils in the fields every day and embroiders late into the night, all to earn enough money for her husband's education. But instead of appreciation, she receives beatings and scolding from him!"
