Chapter 34 It’s the Abuser’s Fault, Not Yours

Su Wantang turned around, grinned at Su Jianguo, and said, “Dad, your daughter is exceptionally gifted. I don’t need to learn; I was born knowing how!”

Su Jianguo’s eyes widened in astonishment as he watched her speeding away. For a moment, he didn’t know how to react.

He stood there dumbfounded, letting the wind ruffle his hair, completely bewildered.

Su Jianguo muttered to himself, “No way, when did this girl learn to ride a bicycle? And she’s so good at it! I, her father, can’t even ride, how does she know how?”

Zhang Daniu was pacing anxiously at the front door, her eyes filled with worry and anticipation.

Her grandmother, Li Cuihua, had bruises of varying degrees on her face, and her legs and arms were bandaged, immobile.

Li Cuihua lay in a rocking chair, watching the restless Zhang Daniu, and softly said, “Daniu, come sit down. Don’t pace; it makes me dizzy…”

Hearing this, Zhang Daniu looked back at Li Cuihua, filled with guilt.

She knew that at her age, her grandmother was usually very healthy, able to go for walks and chat with her old friends.

But now, she could only lie helplessly in a chair, unable to move.

Thinking that Li Cuihua had suffered so much because of her, Zhang Daniu’s eyes welled up again.

She quickly looked away, not wanting Li Cuihua to see her sadness.

Zhang Daniu’s voice choked, “Grandma, I won’t pace anymore. I’ll just stand here.”

Seeing Zhang Danniu’s self-blame, Li Cuihua raised her hand slightly, wanting to comfort Zhang Danniu, but her hand dropped down weakly due to the pain.

She sighed helplessly and said, “Silly child, Grandma’s fine. Don’t blame yourself. It’s the abuser’s fault, not yours. You’re a victim too!”

Hearing this, Zhang Daniu was already weeping uncontrollably.

Not wanting to worry Li Cuihua, she quickly wiped away her tears and smiled back at her grandmother, “Grandma, don’t worry, I’m fine.”

“Zhang Daniu!”

Hearing someone call her, Zhang Daniu tiptoed to look, and saw Su Wantang riding her bicycle towards her like the wind.

“Xiao Wan!”

At the sight of Su Wantang, Zhang Daniu’s eyes sparkled with surprise and excitement.

Su Wantang dismounted steadily, skillfully leaning her bicycle against a side, and then naturally linked arms with Zhang Daniu, leading her into the house.

Zhang Daniu’s gaze fell on Su Wantang’s brand-new bicycle. She was astonished and couldn’t help but ask, “Where did you get the bicycle?”

Su Wantang gently turned her face, pulling her into the house while saying, “Don’t worry about that now. The important thing is, did you get your mother to find the divorce papers?”

Zhang Daniu nodded repeatedly, a hint of joy on her face. “I found them! They’re in my mother’s room! I’ll go get them.”

With that, Zhang Daniu ran into the house.

Li Cuihua saw Su Wantang arrive and instinctively wanted to get up to greet her.

But as soon as she moved, a searing pain shot through her body, making her unable to move.

She smiled wryly, “Xiao Wan, you’re here. Find a chair to sit on. Grandma can’t move now. When I’m better, I’ll cook something delicious for you.”

Su Wantang finally saw the extent of Li Cuihua’s injuries.

Her face was covered in overlapping bruises, her legs and arms were wrapped in thick bandages, and she looked even thinner and weaker.

A surge of intense anger welled up in Su Wantang’s heart.

They could even attack a woman in her sixties; she could imagine how cruel and ruthless those people were.

If Zhang Daniu really married that kind of person, her life would be ruined, and she might even lose her life!

As the saying goes, it takes a hundred days to recover from a broken bone.

At Li Cuihua’s age, after such a beating, her originally healthy body would certainly suffer lasting damage.

She could no longer work, help out at home, or ease the family’s burden; she would probably have to be carefully cared for from now on.

For a family that was already not well-off, this was undoubtedly another burden.

Su Wantang unconsciously clenched her fist.

Those damned gamblers!

Zhang Daniu had already found the divorce papers. After coming out, she handed them to Su Wantang.

The divorce papers were well-preserved. Although the paper was yellowed, there was no damage. The handwriting and fingerprints were still clear.

Su Wantang looked at the contents. In black and white, it was written very clearly.

Zhang Li compensated Sun Hua fifty yuan, they divorced, she took her daughter and changed her surname to Zhang. From then on, Zhang Li, Zhang Daniu, and Sun Hua would have nothing to do with each other.

Even if they hadn’t divorced, Sun Hua couldn’t sell his daughter.

Such a cruel beast deserved a good lesson!

Su Wantang already had a plan. She didn’t want to directly report the matter to the police.

Before that, she felt that these people must receive the punishment they deserved; otherwise, it would be too easy on them!

Putting away the divorce papers, she tightly held Zhang Daniu’s hand and went out.

Li Cuihua didn’t understand, anxiously asking, “Daniu, Xiao Wan, what are you going to do with this divorce paper?”
