Sold for 300, I Fight Back with Superpowers

Su Lihui was already fifteen, so he naturally understood what "getting a wife" meant. After hearing Old Su’s words, he hesitated for a moment before obediently sitting down beside her.

Seeing Su Lihui’s reaction, Old Su nodded in satisfaction. She then turned to Su Shunli. "No matter what, this time you have to divorce that good-for-nothing woman."

"Yeah. A divorce." Su Shunli already loathed Tian Aixiang, so he naturally had no objection to his mother’s words.

Old Su was very pleased that her son was being so obedient. She said, "Don’t you worry. Once you’ve divorced that good-for-nothing, Mom will find you another wife. I guarantee she’ll be a hundred times better than this one."

"Yeah," Su Shunli quickly agreed. He couldn’t live without a woman. He needed one to take care of his every need. With Tian Aixiang in lockup for the past few days, there was no one to wait on him, and he felt uncomfortable no matter what he did. He could tolerate it for a short while, but he couldn’t stand it for long.

Outside, Tian Aixiang kept knocking on the gate, but no one came to open it for her.

"Open the door!" Tian Aixiang yelled as she banged on the gate. "Shunli, Xiao Hui, open up! I’m back!"

But no matter how much Tian Aixiang yelled, still no one opened the gate for her.

At that moment, a sliver of panic shot through Tian Aixiang’s heart. ’The Su Family isn’t really going to abandon me, are they?’

’If the Su Family throws me out, where can I go?’

Tian Aixiang’s heart trembled. She couldn’t go back to her own family’s home now. Her brother and sister-in-law were still furious about what happened last time and wouldn’t even let her in the door. If they heard she’d been in lockup, they’d be even less likely to let her in. If the Su Family cast her out, she would truly have nowhere to go.

At this thought, Tian Aixiang’s panic grew. She hammered on the courtyard gate relentlessly. "Open the door! Xiao Hui, hurry and open the door for Mom! I’m home! Don’t you miss me?"

Tian Aixiang knew full well that she couldn’t rely on Old Su or Su Shunli. Her only hope was her son. But she had been shouting for a long time, and Su Lihui hadn’t come to open the gate. She couldn’t help but wonder, ’Could it be that Xiao Hui isn’t home?’

The incessant banging on the gate didn’t stop. Old Su’s brow furrowed tightly. She shot up from her seat and headed for Su Shunli and Tian Aixiang’s room.

Su Shunli hurried after her. "Mom, what are you...?"

"Are we just going to let that troublemaker keep screaming at the gate? Hasn’t our family been laughed at enough?" Old Su fumed as she stormed into Su Shunli and Tian Aixiang’s room. She haphazardly grabbed a handful of Tian Aixiang’s clothes, crumpled them into a ball, and stuffed them into a bundle. Then she said to Su Shunli, "Let’s go. We’re going to make things clear with that good-for-nothing woman."

"Okay." Su Shunli had no objections and followed behind Old Su.

Tian Aixiang was still outside, banging relentlessly on the gate, which rattled with a loud THUD THUD THUD. Seething with rage, Old Su suddenly yanked the gate open. Tian Aixiang couldn’t stop her hand in time, and she slapped Old Su right on the forehead.

"Ow!" Caught off guard, Old Su stumbled backward, dropping the bundle in her hands. Luckily, Su Shunli was right behind her and caught her just in time, saving her from falling to the ground.

Tian Aixiang had been frantically banging on the gate, terrified of being locked out for good. She hadn’t even noticed the footsteps inside. Now, having slapped Old Su, she herself was startled.

Old Su was also shocked by the blow. As soon as she steadied herself, she slapped Tian Aixiang hard across the face. "You damn wretch! Trying to harm me, are you?! Take that! And that!"

As she spoke, she rained a flurry of blows on Tian Aixiang. When her hands weren’t enough, she grabbed a wooden stick from beside the gate and started beating Tian Aixiang with it.

Caught off guard, Tian Aixiang took the full force of Old Su’s blows.

"Ah! Mother, stop! Stop!" Tian Aixiang’s body ached from the beating. She tried to snatch the stick from Old Su’s hands, but Su Shunli slapped her aside. "What, you want to hit Mom now?"

"I didn’t!" Tian Aixiang said to Su Shunli while dodging the stick in Old Su’s hands. "Shunli, quick, make your mom stop!"

"Stop? After you’ve made our Su Family so miserable, what’s wrong with hitting you a few times?" Old Su cursed as she continued to beat her. "You cursed, good-for-nothing woman! Why doesn’t a bolt of lightning just strike you dead? Keeping you around is just asking for trouble! Look at the disaster you’ve brought upon our Su Family! If I’d known, I never would have let you through our door in the first place! Letting you into the Su Family, we must have been cursed for eight generations! The Tian family must have a grudge against my Su family, is that it?"

"Ah! No, Mother, please stop!" Tian Aixiang’s whole body was in agony, but she didn’t dare run away. She was afraid that if she ran, the Su Family really wouldn’t let her back in, and then she would truly have nowhere to go.

"Stop? Stop, my ass!" Old Su swung the stick with ferocious energy. With Su Shunli there to run interference, she didn’t have to worry about Tian Aixiang fighting back. In no time, she had beaten Tian Aixiang to the ground.

"Mother, I was wrong! Please stop hitting me! I’ll listen to whatever you say from now on!" Tian Aixiang quickly surrendered to Old Su. "I didn’t mean to hit you just now! I didn’t know you had opened the gate!"

Tian Aixiang felt terribly wronged. She had been through hell outside, only to come home to a beating. ’Where could she possibly go to find justice?’

"Pah! Our Su Family has no use for a woman like you." Old Su stabbed the wooden stick into the ground and pointed at Tian Aixiang as she cursed, "And don’t give me that ’I’ll listen to whatever you say’ crap. I can’t afford that risk. Who knows what wicked thoughts you’re hiding in that heart of yours? Just get the hell out, and be quick about it."

As she spoke, Old Su picked up the bundle she had dropped earlier and threw it at Tian Aixiang. "Get out! Later, my Shunli will divorce you. You won’t be a daughter-in-law of our Su Family anymore."

To Tian Aixiang, Old Su’s words were like a bolt from the blue. This had always been her greatest fear. She couldn’t go back to her own family, and now her husband’s family was casting her out. ’What was she going to do?’

"Mother, I was wrong! I was wrong! Please don’t make Shunli divorce me!" Tian Aixiang scrambled and crawled toward Old Su, grabbing her pant leg and starting to wail, "Mother, you can’t just watch me die and do nothing!"

"Pah! If we keep a woman like you, the Su Family’s reputation will be completely ruined!" Seeing her pant leg grabbed by Tian Aixiang, Old Su angrily took two steps back, trying to shake her off. But Tian Aixiang held on tight, and she couldn’t get free.

Furious, Old Su said to Su Shunli, "Shunli, hurry up and pull this woman off me!"

Without a word, Su Shunli moved to tear Tian Aixiang away.

Tian Aixiang grabbed Su Shunli’s arm and pleaded, "Shunli, we’ve been married for almost twenty years! You can’t do this to me!"
