Chapter 16 Kick them out

"I know, I know."

Su Dai raised her little hand and spoke.

Qin looked at Su Dai in surprise: "My dear, what do you know?"

Zhao was also surprised. Did Su Dai understand her suffering?

“That person is bad. She wants our family’s money. She bullied my aunt and made her unhappy. I don’t like her.”

Su Dai said righteously that she could not understand much, but Zhao Caiju's eyes were shining, and her desire for profit was exactly the same as that of the two uncles of the Su family. Su Dai disliked the thought of becoming seriously ill after fulfilling Su Changsheng and Su Changshui's demands.

She now realized that this was wrong, and she looked at Zhao Shi with concern and said seriously, "Aunt, don't agree, you'll get sick."

She knew how difficult life could be, and her aunt was pregnant and couldn't afford to get sick.

Zhao felt a lump in her throat and immediately hugged Su Dai tightly: "Thank you for your concern, Su Bao. Your aunt will absolutely not agree to this."

How could she not understand a principle that even a child understands?

She won't agree, no matter what the Qin family says or what Qin Yulin thinks, she just won't agree.

"Go play, sweetie."

Qin told Su Dai to go play on the side so she could talk to Zhao if Zhao was willing.

Zhao released Su Dai, who then went to a corner of the courtyard to continue searching for her ant friends.

After watching Su Dai leave, Zhao Shi finally spoke with a bitter sob, "Little sister, my life is so hard."

When Zhao thought about the days after her parents died, she felt a bitterness welling up in her heart.

Seeing the tears in Zhao's eyes, Qin felt a pang of sympathy for her.

After calming herself down, Zhao said, "Zhao Caiju is my uncle and aunt's daughter. She came this time because my uncle and aunt want her to marry into the family, saying that I can't have children..."

“My parents passed away early, and they took over our house and land. Before I got married, I did everything at home. But after coming to the Qin family, I realized what happiness is. I am very content. I really don’t want to lose this family. Little sister, what do you think I should do?”

With tears in her eyes, Zhao looked at Qin, hoping she could give her some advice.

Qin Yulin treated her very well, and her parents-in-law were gentle and kind; she was truly content.

If she loses all of this, she probably won't be able to survive.

Her parents had already passed away, and with no one to support her, she had no way back.

Zhao felt absolutely heartbroken. Qin was divorced and brought back, but the Qin family supported her and gave her back what was rightfully hers. The divorce papers were changed to a settlement, and her family accepted and tolerated her. Zhao was truly envious. No matter what hardships Qin faced, at least she still had her family.

But she no longer had any family.

Qin patted Zhao's hand and said gently, "Sister-in-law, Zhao Caiju has nothing to do with our family. You are the one who belongs to our family. Show your strength and kick her out."

"I believe my brother will definitely stand by your side."

Qin felt that this was a case of being too close to the situation to see clearly, recalling how Zhao could roll up her sleeves when facing Old Yang.

But she had been bullied badly by that family at home, so when she faced them, she automatically became less assertive.

This is an extreme lack of self-confidence.

Just like when she brought home a letter of divorce before.

"Can I...?"

Zhao asked hesitantly. She naturally wanted to do that, but could she really do it?

If Zhao Caiju is kicked out, won't her in-laws blame her for not thinking things through?

"Of course you can! Don't worry, if she comes again later, I'll help you chase her out too!"

Seeing the timidity and hesitation in Zhao's eyes, Qin gritted her teeth and said.

Anyway, she needed to build up her courage, so she started with Zhao Caiju!

Seeing Qin's serious expression, Zhao smiled and nodded, "Okay."

Seeing that it was almost time, the two went together to prepare lunch.

When the sun was high in the sky, Qin Tianhai and his son Qin Yulin returned from the fields.

At this time.

After tidying up the vegetable garden, Zhang also had to hurry home.

She had just picked up the basket full of pig feed when Zhao Caiju quickly stepped forward and snatched it from her, saying with a smile, "Aunt Zhang, let me do it. You're too old for this kind of work. You should rest."

Zhang frowned; she disliked hearing this the most.

What do you mean she's old? For someone who does farm work, if she doesn't work, she's practically dying.

Was Zhao Caiju secretly cursing her?

Zhang, with a sullen face, snatched the load back onto her back and said coldly, "Miss Zhao, you are a guest. How can you make a guest do chores?"

An outsider, whose intentions are unknown, came to the vegetable garden to find her, and his mouth never stopped.

They were openly and secretly talking badly about her daughter-in-law, saying that Zhao was unfilial and so on.

How could she not know whether Zhao was filial or not!

If it weren't for Zhao's sake, she would have really given this Zhao girl a piece of her mind.

Zhang walked ahead, and Zhao Caiju quickly followed, supporting Zhang's basket from behind.

“Aunt Zhang, please treat me like your own daughter. There’s no need to be so formal. My sister doesn’t know how to cherish you, but I do.”

"Aunt Zhang, this way you won't be so tired."

Zhao Caiju didn't miss any opportunity to curry favor; this was a great chance to show off, since Zhao Lan was too lazy and only knew how to cook at home.

Her mother was right. If she puts a good word to Zhao Lan, her life will be much smoother once the Qin family all hates her.

Hearing Zhao Caiju's words, Zhang felt extremely disgusted.

She didn't bother to say anything and simply quickened her pace.

She had walked this road countless times; she could walk it with her eyes closed.

Zhao Caiju quickened her pace, but soon she slowed down, almost falling to her death.

When she met someone, Zhao Caiju greeted them with a smile.

"Hello Aunt Niu, I'm here to help Aunt Zhang tidy up her vegetable garden. This garden needs to be well taken care of, otherwise we won't have any vegetables to eat at home."

As she spoke, Zhao Caiju used a handkerchief to wipe away non-existent sweat from her face.

Looking at Zhao Caiju's diligent work, Madam Niu's eyes showed a lot of appreciation. She smiled and asked, "You must be very tired. Qin family's daughter-in-law is really lucky."

"Hard work? Not at all, not at all. I'm young and very capable of doing the work. Aunt Zhang is just lucky."

Zhao Caiju met a woman from the village and started chatting with her happily.

Zhang didn't say anything and walked away very quickly.

"Let's talk next time, Aunt Niu."

Seeing that Zhang was not waiting for her, Zhao Caiju stopped chatting and quickly chased after her.

Back at the Qin family home, Zhao Caiju wiped her sweat and said, "Sister Lan'er, quickly bring me a bowl of water, I'm dying of thirst."

“Unlike you, I don’t just sit at home. It’s hot and tiring outside. You should prepare some cold water and bring it to me and Aunt Zhang quickly.” Zhao Caiju commanded with an air of self-righteousness, as if she were already the mistress of the house.

Zhao clenched her fists.

Zhang frowned as she drank the cold water, feeling very uncomfortable with the way the Zhao girl spoke.

"Miss Zhao, go back to where you came from. You are not welcome in our family!"

Seeing Zhao hesitate, Qin took a deep breath, slenderly stepped forward, and said to Zhao Caiju.
