"Ah! Stop hitting… Stop hitting me! Ah! It hurts! Ah!"
An Gouzi howled in pain and raised his hands to protect his face. However, he could only take the beating.
Mrs. Jin was doing chores in the kitchen when she heard the commotion. When she saw the man getting beaten, she was so shocked she dropped the shovel in her hand.
Afraid she would be beaten up too, she retreated into the kitchen and pretended she did not see that.
After a while, An Jiuyue felt she had vented enough. She threw An Gouzi to the ground and took a deep breath before kicking him a few more times.
"You can't get out of bed? I'll make sure you can't get out of bed!"
An Gouzi continued to cry out. Every part of his body was in pain.
"Stop… stop hitting me. Stop hitting me. I'll go… I'll go chop the firewood. I'll chop the firewood, okay?"
