Jesusa’s husband does not like her being independent. He brings her back to the army and tries to control her by ignoring her and by beating her. Jesusa put up with it for a a short while, but then proved herself to be worthy by standing up to her husband. This was a major turning point in the book. Jesusa established herself as an independent and strong woman. He husband recognized this and there relationship changed into a more balanced once. Jesusa also defended her place in her husbands life often by violent means. Having gone though what she has gone through she had the strength and the rational to defend her place in her own life.
