Extreme pain made me feel like a dying person seeing a glimmer of light.

I used all my strength to rush towards my mother-in-law, holding the newborn baby in my arms, crying out, "You've already killed one of my daughters, I beg you, please don't kill this one too!"

"You want me to raise a worthless thing? Are you out of your mind?"

My mother-in-law poured a basin of dirty water used for childbirth directly on me, saying, "What a waste of the water I boiled. Damn it, this child, let me tell you, keeping her is a waste of food, I will kill her sooner or later!"

My mother-in-law always wanted a grandson.

Before, I always obeyed her, letting her do as she pleased.

But now, with the child born, I couldn't bear to watch her die.

This tormenting pain gave me courage to shout, "If my only child dies, I will die with her!"

"Oh, you've become bold, daring to threaten me?"

My mother-in-law laughed, clenched her fist, ready to strike me.

But the midwife stopped her, advising, "Wang Zhu, calm down, she's weak now, if you use force, you might really kill her."

"Think about it, you spend over a hundred thousand to buy a daughter-in-law, if you kill her, who will bear you a grandson?"

After hearing this, my mother-in-law's clenched fist turned into slaps on my face, saying fiercely, "I'll spare your wretched life for now, once you give birth to a son, I'll kill you then!"

Then, she took the trash can, carrying the dead child, and left.

I held the baby in my arms, tears streaming down.

I was abducted by human traffickers.

My mother-in-law paid eighty thousand to buy me.

She locked me in a pigsty, starved me for five days and nights, and crushed my spirit.

If I disobeyed, she would either hit me or curse at me.

Over time, I resigned myself, like a sheep, enduring her abuse and filled with endless fear.

But now, a hint of resentment and rebellion rose in my heart...

"..."

That night, I held the child tightly as we slept, fearing that if she moved away from me, my mother-in-law would come in and kill her.

The next day, before dawn, my mother-in-law stood by my bed, pulling back my blanket, saying, "The chili seedlings haven't been watered with manure yet, hurry up and water them!"

Her voice was loud, waking the sleeping child.

I comforted the child while responding, "Mom, I just gave birth to the baby, can I water the seedlings in a couple of days?"

My mother-in-law forcefully threw the blanket to the ground, saying, "Just gave birth, so what? In our time, we worked in the fields right after giving birth!"

She sneered, "You want to be lazy, don't you? You gave birth to a daughter, what right do you have to be lazy?"

I hurriedly explained, "Mom, that's not what I meant."

"I don't care what you meant!"

My mother-in-law was annoyed by the baby's crying, she grabbed a pillow and pressed it hard against the baby's face, saying, "Damn it, I'll kill this worthless thing sooner or later!"

"Oh my, Mom, don't suffocate her, I'll go work!"

I endured the pain in my lower body, holding the child tightly, and got out of bed.

At that moment, my husband walked in.

Since I gave birth yesterday, my husband had completely disappeared.

I knew he was unhappy with me.

But now, he was the only one I could rely on.

Instinctively, I walked towards him, saying, "Honey, Mom has tried to kill our child several times..."

Smack.

Before I could finish, my husband slapped me directly in the face, saying, "This child should have died long ago!"

He used great force.

The slap made blood trickle from the corner of my mouth.

At that moment, I heard the baby crying, and a buzzing sound in my ears.

I fully experienced the pain and despair of descending into hell.

For a moment, I even felt a sense of relief.

Thinking that my baby in my arms, it might be better if she died.

Her living was more suffering than her death.
