After Escaping Famine, Three-Year-Old Fu Bao Became Everyone’s Favorite

During the famine, a sack of grain was traded for a little girl. Everyone thought the family had lost their minds.

But ever since they adopted little Qingtian, it was as if their lives had be...

Chapter 40 Did they really report it to the police?

At night, the lights in each room were turned off one after another.

Mrs. Ye lay in bed, unable to sleep.

Ye Laodao said: "Don't think too much, go to sleep, tossing and turning will wake the child up."

In fact, Qingtian was not asleep at all at this time.

She already knew that her parents had lost their money, but she was still not quite sure how much fifty taels of silver was.

But she still remembered that when she was in the Shan family, Mrs. Shan had quarreled with Boss Shan for half a month because he spent half a tael of silver on treating people to drinks.

Fifty taels must be a lot of money, that's why my mother cried so sadly before.

Qingtian turned over and snuggled into Sister Ye's arms. She put her two little hands around her neck and said softly, "Mom, don't be sad. When I grow up, you can marry me off and collect the betrothal money!"

Boss Ye and Sister Ye originally thought that Qing would make money for them when she grew up.

Who knew that this sentence would follow.

Mrs. Ye quickly got up, hugged Qingtian and asked, "Who told you that?"

"Yes, it was in the past..." Qingtian didn't know what to call Mrs. Shan for a moment, so he simply skipped over and continued, "They said that when I get married in the future, the betrothal money can be used to help my younger brother get married."

When Mrs. Ye heard this, she couldn't stand it anymore. She felt worse than if she had lost her banknotes.

Boss Ye was so angry that he pounded the bed.

Mrs. Ye hugged Qingtian and said, "Good boy, let's forget what they said to you before, okay?

"Just remember what your parents told you from now on, okay?"

Qingtian nodded ignorantly.

Boss Ye reached out and rubbed her little head. He really couldn't understand why someone could have the heart to do so many cruel things to such a well-behaved and sensible child.

I really didn't hit Boss Shan lightly enough when I hit him.

"Qingtian, remember this: your parents have enough hands and feet to support you, and they won't use you to earn a bride price. All you need to do is grow up safely."

Qingtian seemed to understand something, but he was still thinking about Mrs. Ye.

"But mom must be very sad after losing the banknotes. She even cried." Qing.

Mrs. Ye hugged Qingtian's small body and suddenly became much more open-minded.

"Mom, don't feel bad anymore, and don't miss Qingtian anymore. Let's go to sleep together, okay?" Mrs. Ye coaxed softly.

"Okay!" Qingtian snuggled in Mrs. Ye's arms and soon fell asleep.

After Qingtian began to breathe evenly, Boss Ye said bitterly, "Boss Shan and his wife are damned. I don't know what nonsense they say to the child!"

"Fortunately, Qingtian didn't let them mislead him." Mrs. Ye said, "I've figured it out now. The banknote was an unexpected gain.

"Now that it's lost, maybe God thinks we shouldn't have received this unexpected fortune, so let's just consider it as a loss to avoid disaster."

The Ye family fell into a deep sleep in the warm room, but the Ye family across the street had different dreams and slept back to back all night.

Guo had a mess of dreams all night and felt uneasy when she woke up in the morning. She even pricked her hands several times while sewing clothes.

She simply dropped her needle and thread, got up and planned to take a walk in the yard.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she walked out of the inn, she saw several boys from the family and Qingtian climbing the old pear tree in the yard.

Guo's expression changed immediately. She took a few quick steps forward and shouted, "Ye Changxue, are you getting too bold?

"How dare you bring your younger brothers and sisters up a tree? What if they fall down?"

Ye Changxue was climbing well, but was frightened by her shout and almost fell down.

Only when Guo got closer did she see clearly that only Ye Changxue and Ye Changzhao had actually climbed up the tree.

Because Ye Changrui was studying with Mr. Wei at the time, Ye Changxue became the leader of the children in the family.

He is usually naughty, and this time he is taking the lead and has climbed to a height of more than one person.

Ye Changzhao followed closely behind, but he couldn't climb anymore halfway up and lay on the tree trunk, looking a bit embarrassed, unable to go up or down.

Ye Changfeng didn't get involved in these matters at all, and just stood under the eaves and watched from a distance.

Ye Changnian was standing under the tree with Qingtian, and he was cheering for his two brothers who were climbing the tree!

When Guo called out to them, the two men immediately shut up.

Guo glanced nervously at the tree trunk. Seeing Ye Changxue and Ye Changzhao still clinging to the tree, she immediately scolded them again, "You still don't want to come down. You have to ask me to call your parents to spank you before you obey, right?"

Ye Changzhao was already beginning to lose his hold, and after hearing what Guo said, his hands went limp and he slid down the tree trunk.

Ye Changxue ignored Guo completely. While looking for the next place to stay, he reached out to grab a higher branch.

When Guo saw his feet rubbing against a certain part of the tree trunk, her nervous heart almost jumped out of her throat, and she wanted to go forward and pull Ye Changxue down.

Seeing that Guo was about to curse again, Qingtian quickly explained in a low voice: "Fourth Aunt, my second brother climbed the tree to help me get something!"

Although he didn't know why, Qingtian was a little afraid of Guo from the bottom of his heart.

Mrs. Guo was different from the other two aunts. She seemed not to like her at all.

Children are most sensitive to this kind of attitude. Although they can't give a reason, they will try to stay away from it based on their intuition.

But this time, her second and third brothers climbed the tree to help her, and she didn't want them to be scolded by Guo, so she plucked up the courage to speak.

"What do you want?" Guo asked with a frown.
