Punch after punch landed on the body of Ayu who was cowering under the floor while protecting her head with both hands.
While her mother-in-law continued to use a broom beating her body violently.
"Stupid! Do you know how valuable that thing is?! 5 years ago mom bought it at rp500,000 But now if it is sold the price can reach 5 million!!!" Shouted ayu's stepmother named Dira.
"Sorry Mom, I didn't know by accident, I didn't know that Brother Merlin's son was going to drop the vase!!" Sayu tried to defend herself.
But the self-defense was ignored by Dira, Dira continued to beat ayu while saying, "stupid!! You useless son-in-law! You are such a fool!!! I was planning to sell it next week and you broke it?!! You're crazy!!!"
Dira finally threw a broom towards the body of ayu before Dira gritted her teeth then turned around to leave the place with an extremely angry feeling.
While ayu, the woman finally sat on the floor while looking at her hand which was now full of bruises from being hit so hard.
'Hah, how unlucky I got into this family, it's already a poor family, all of its inhabitants also nothing is right!!!' gerutu ayu in heart while standing up then took the broom that her mother-in-law had used to beat her.
After that, ayu then went to the family room to clean up the broken flower vase that had been dropped.
'This flower canvas costs rp500,000 and will sell 5 million? Is there such a thing?' the cigar grumbled in his heart as he swept the broken glass onto the scoop of trash he was holding.
After cleaning the flower vase shards, she went to throw it away and the woman returned to busy herself in the kitchen to cook dinner for her husband's extended family.
I don't know how long he's been in the kitchen, but the woman breathed a sigh of relief after she arranged all the food on the table and her father-in-law came and smiled at the dining table filled with good food.
"Okay dad," said ayu before he left then called all the inhabitants of the house to eat.
After all the residents of the house finished he called, then ayu back to the dining table and then he served everyone who sat at the dining table.
Dira who was sitting in his chair stared at the one empty seat there before he turned his face to look at ayu, "where is your husband? Why isn't he eating?" Ask Dira.
"He hasn't come home from work yet" Ayu replied as she poured water into her nephew's glass.
Merlin sighed, "huh, the boy always goes to work early in the morning and comes home so late that he can't have dinner with us, but the salary is nothing and just enough to pay the electricity!!!" Merlin grumbled while bribing the food on his plate.
"Don't say that, at least his salary can still pay for electricity for our family, unlike his wife who can only stay at home to be a burden on the family every day fed but does not produce!!" Grutu Dira while glaring at ayu who is now walking to the back because he never ate with his family.
After arriving at the back of the kitchen, Ayu sat alone while gazing towards the vegetable garden with a mind that floated.
'Those people, if they knew what the reason my husband left so early in the morning and always came home late, it's all because he doesn't want to sit at the dinner table with his family while I have to serve everyone and not be allowed to eat at the dinner table,' said ayu in heart with teary eyes imagining herself and her husband who was so underestimated in her husband's extended family.
But they could not leave their current home, because they did not have the money to rent a contract and finance their lives.
Because he felt so unsettled that he just sat quietly, he stood up and walked towards the garden and began to pluck the weeds that grew wild in the garden.
While plucking the weeds that were there, Ayu thought, 'if my husband could have a more decent job, then my husband and I will definitely have a lot of money and will not be underestimated in this house.'
