Chapter 8 Xu Yuanlong is dead (Seeking monthly votes)

On the eighth day, the two went to get their marriage certificate.

Looking at the red marriage certificate in her hand, Wang Jing felt that all of this was not real.

Shen Jiang has recommended Wang Jing to the military to be a driver and has applied for her to accompany him to the military.

The higher-ups ordered Shen Jiang to take Wang Jing to the military base for an interview.

Wang Jing was worried about Xu Qingmo and wanted to take her with her, but Xu Yuanlong, disregarding his injuries, refused to allow Wang Jing to take her away.

Xu Qingmo wasn't in a hurry to leave; she hadn't taught this family a lesson yet.

"If Momo doesn't leave, I won't leave either." Wang Jing threw another little tantrum.

Xu Qingmo sighed and advised, "Go for the interview first. As long as you can become a driver for the army, the application for the family compound will be approved as soon as possible. Then you can come back to pick me up. I promise that no one will dare to stop me then."

“But…” Wang Jing still hesitated.

Xu Qingmo said, "Listen to me, go quickly, your father is waiting for you."

For the past week, Xu Qingmo has been forcing herself to learn to call her father and mother.

Although it was unfamiliar and she wasn't used to it, she had to get used to it as soon as possible in order to live in this world.

Shen Jiang took out a piece of high-quality mutton fat jade and placed it in Xu Qingmo's hand. He patted her head, and Xu Qingmo frowned but did not refuse.

"If the Xu family continues to bully you, take this piece of mutton fat jade to the village chief, give him the jade, and ask him to help you contact me." This is the most valuable thing Shen Jiang has.

He has already relayed a message to the village chief, asking him to take care of Xu Qingmo.

Although the village chief and Xu Hai's wife are relatives, this piece of mutton fat jade is quite valuable. Faced with absolute profit, the village chief would probably prefer to use the jade to do his bidding.

Xu Qingmo nodded, "Okay, I've noted it all down. You guys should hurry up and get to the unit sooner so you can finish the interview sooner and come back to pick me up sooner."

Wang Jing was still reluctant to leave, and Shen Jiang took her away in the car.

Wang Xiuzhi had been watching from a short distance away, and she saw Shen Jiang hand the mutton fat jade to Xu Qingmo.

As the sound of the car faded into the distance, and she was certain that Chen Jiang would not return, Wang Xiuzhi began to feel restless.

Xu Qingmo deliberately stuffed the mutton fat jade into her pocket in front of Wang Xiuzhi.

Xu Yuanlong lost all his money gambling outside, and when he returned to the village and heard that Wang Jing had been taken away, he was furious.

He returned home cursing all the way, kicked the door open, and saw Wang Xiuzhi waving at him.

"Let me tell you, that girl Xu Qingmo has a piece of fine jade. You could get a lot of money from it," Wang Xiuzhi said mysteriously.

Now that Shen Jiang is gone, Xu Qingmo is only five years old and is no match for their whole family.

Xu Yuanlong was worried about where to get his money when he unexpectedly received a windfall.

"Wait here, I'll go get the jade." Xu Yuanlong walked towards Xu Qingmo in a carefree manner. Xu Qingmo was playing in the dirt on the ground, trying her best to do what someone her age should do, and also trying to bring back the childhood she had never had before.

Upon hearing Xu Yuanlong's words, Xu Qingmo threw the mud in her hand directly at him.

It hit Xu Yuanlong squarely in the face.

It's grayish-brown, like a wild monkey from the mountains.

"This jade was left to me by my father. You think you can just take it away like that? Do you think I'm dead?" The childish voice was full of displeasure.

"You brat, if you don't hand over the jade today, I'll make you half-dead!" Xu Yuanlong was furious. He casually wiped his face, the mud stuck to his skin with water, which was very uncomfortable.

Xu Qingmo stretched out her leg and tripped Xu Yuanlong, causing him to fall to the ground.

"It's not that you can't take my things, but can you at least learn how to walk first?" Xu Qingmo said with obvious disdain.

"You brat, I think you're tired of living..." Xu Yuanlong continued to yell.

Xu Qingmo picked at her ear. "Stop shouting. Save your energy to cook. And you over there, stop watching the commotion and come cook with us."

Wang Xiuzhi was also called up. She had always been afraid of Xu Qingmo, feeling that there were many mysteries surrounding Xu Qingmo.

But she was unhappy that her son deliberately wanted to keep such a jinx, yet she couldn't get rid of him.

"I'm your own father! How can you treat me like this?" Xu Yuanlong was furious. People from the next village had warned him that if he didn't send over the money he had lost within two days, they would break his leg.

Even though Xu Yuanlong was somewhat afraid of Xu Qingmo, he still had to bite the bullet and take the jade away.

“You’re no longer my father. My father is Shen Jiang. I’m staying here simply because I don’t want to see you living a better life than the people in the village.” Xu Qingmo was very vengeful; she wanted to eat everything edible here.

Use up everything that can be used.

Why not include everything in Wang Jing's space?

That's because Wang Jing's job hasn't been finalized yet, so it's inconvenient for her to go out with her. She's staying here for the time being.

We're waiting for Wang Jing to make all the arrangements so we can pick her up.

"You little brat! You're siding with outsiders! I'll beat you half to death today!" Xu Yuanlong picked up a stick from the ground, grabbed Xu Qingmo's arm, and was about to spank her.

His hands immediately burst into flames, the flames scorching his hands, causing him to writhe on the ground in pain.

Xu Qingmo watched quietly and reminded her, "If you yell at me again, I'll report you to the town authorities for gambling and send you in for ideological education."

"You brat, put out the fire in my hand, hurry up..." Xu Yuanlong wailed in pain.

Xu Qingmo ignored her. Seeing Xu Yuanlong's pained expression, Wang Xiuzhi picked up a bucket and splashed water on him.

"Sizzle..." The fire made a series of sounds after it was extinguished.

Xu Yuanlong was helped up, and he stared at Xu Qingmo in fear, "A monster, she's a monster!"

Xu Qingmo reminded me, "I said I'm hungry. If you still want to keep a room for me, hurry up and cook something before I get angry. I want to eat meat."

Wang Xiuzhi took all the money in the house to buy meat, but Xu Qingmo had a huge appetite. She was small, but she could eat two pounds of pork in one meal.

This two pounds of pork was a week's supply for their family, and now Xu Qingmo has eaten it all by herself.

Wang Xiuzhi pointed at Xu Yuanlong and angrily said, "Why did you have to keep such a plague god around? We've almost run out of money and food, and we won't have any meat to cook tomorrow. You'd better figure out a solution."

"I remember there are wild boars on the back mountain. Maybe I should go to the village chief and borrow a hunting rifle to try my luck on the mountain." Now that Xu Qingmo can't get the mutton fat jade, Xu Yuanlong has to find another way.

He has to earn money to pay off his gambling debts.

Wang Xiuzhi knew Xu Yuanlong's capabilities and was worried about him going. "You should stay at home. At least you'll be alright."

Xu Yuanlong had made up his mind. "No way. That brat Xu Qingmo wants to eat meat every day. Do you even have the money to buy it?"

"But I can't let you risk your life to catch pigs..."

"Don't worry about it, I know what I'm doing."

The next day, news that Xu Yuanlong, who went hunting in the mountains, was gored by a wild boar and fell to his death on the mountain quickly spread throughout Xujia Village.
