Xia Yujiao locked herself in the room and cried bitterly.

Zhou's face was ashen as she stood outside the door, listening quietly to Xia Yujiao's crying without saying a word.

Old Master Xia sighed and smoked two packs of cigarettes, then finally walked forward and put his arm around Zhou's shoulders.

Zhou did not, as usual, obediently move closer to Mr. Xia's arms when he comforted her. Instead, she did not move at all and even frowned.

Old Master Xia was a little at a loss. He raised his hand and wanted to stroke Zhou's hair, but he didn't dare to provoke her when she was so angry that her face turned blue.

Fortunately, Xia Yujiao's crying finally stopped, and then the sound of someone picking up barnacles and pouring water came from the room.

Zhou breathed a sigh of relief and turned away.

Old Master Xia hurriedly chased after him.

He knew Zhou's personality; she was always stubborn and obstinate, sometimes even refusing to turn back. Old Master Xia was afraid that Zhou would get stuck in a rut and do something irreversible in a fit of rage.

Mr. Xia is not worrying about nothing.

At this time, Zhou was indeed planning something irreversible.

If Xia Daohua knew what Zhou was thinking at this moment, she would be shocked.

Because, Zhou was thinking about how to kill Jin Yong safely, quietly, without involving others, and quickly and efficiently.

In Zhou's view, when a person dies, it is like a lamp going out, and when a tiger dies, it is like a sheep.

No matter how difficult Jin Yong is, as long as he is eliminated physically, he will have no chance of causing trouble again.

And his little daughter Xia Yujiao will be able to escape from Jin Yong's entanglement.

Although because of Jin Yong's evil deeds, Xia Yujiao is afraid that it will be difficult for her to marry into a good family again.

But, I can leave all my coffin money to this girl.

Although the eldest and second oldest were somewhat unreliable, the third, fourth, and fifth oldest all had some conscience. The fourth oldest, in particular, was the most honest of the honest.

With these three down-to-earth brothers protecting her and money at hand, Xia Yujiao could have stayed at her parents' home for the rest of her life and lived freely until she grew old.

With so many nephews and nieces around, I don’t have to worry about having no one to take care of me in my old age.

If you are worried that there will be no one to offer sacrifices to her after a few generations, you can also ask your brothers to adopt a nephew under her name.

Zhou even thought about what would happen after Xia Yujiao's death, but she didn't expect that if she killed Jin Yong, wouldn't Jin Yong's family vent their anger on the Xia family?

All we can say is that Zhou had lost his mind due to the anger at this time.

Fortunately, although Zhou was prone to paranoia, she was not impulsive. She would not act rashly without careful planning and choosing the right opportunity.

Zhou had also killed people before. But that was during the chaotic famine, and the situation was different from this one. Back then, she could truly say she had no choice.

However, she was willing to have her hands stained with blood in order to keep her second son alive.

At this moment, she would even sacrifice a life for the safety and happiness of her youngest daughter Xia Yujiao.

But Mr. Xia knows Zhou very well.

Seeing that Zhou's face was ashen and she had been standing silently outside Xia Yujiao's door, his heart was in his throat.

He hadn't seen Zhou's expression for many years and had almost forgotten it.

When fleeing famine, I met a talkative man on the way. He came up to me and joined my family.

Although the Xia family was very vigilant, everything was peaceful at the beginning.

Later, the two sides gradually became familiar with each other, and their vigilance was not as strong as at the beginning.

One day, while Zhou went to the river to fetch water, she was serving porridge to her mother-in-law who had caught a cold. Before she knew it, the guy took half a piece of pancake and quietly took away the second son, Xia Yougui, who was only two years old at the time, from the cart of the old Xia family.

When Zhou went over with a hoe in hand, the guy had already started the fire, put the pot on the stove, and was boiling water.

He even stripped off all the clothes on the silly Xia Yougui and was holding a knife, trying to figure out where to cut first.

Looking at the smile on his face and the saliva on his lips, Old Man Xia felt his anger rising up, his eyes were bloodshot, and for a moment he felt dizzy and almost couldn't move.

At that time, Zhou's face turned pale as she walked over step by step with great determination. She took the hoe and dug the guy to death with one blow after another!

Old Master Xia had almost forgotten all these things. He had buried them deep in his heart for many years and never thought about them.

But just now, his daughter was crying sadly in the house, and Zhou's face was ashen outside the house. Old Man Xia couldn't help but recall the original scene.

However, they were on the road fleeing famine, in the midst of chaos and war, with human lives as worthless as grass, and the guy was alone, with no companions. Moreover, in order to make it easier to eat children, the guy chose a very remote place to boil water.

Unexpectedly, it actually helped both him and Zhou.

However, now that the world is at peace and I have so many children and grandchildren, how can I possibly act without scruples like I did in the past?

Old Master Xia did not hide his worries from Zhou.

Before going to bed at night, Old Master Xia told Zhou all his thoughts without caring whether she would call him a coward or a heartless person.

After hearing what Mr. Xia said, Zhou was silent for a while.

After a moment, he said:

"Don't worry. I won't act rashly. I'll always think of a foolproof plan before I take action."

Old Master Xia sighed.

He knew that Zhou had the right idea, and it would probably not be easy to convince her.

But knowing it in my heart is one thing, but she really doesn't listen to my advice. Even though I knew I would be rejected before I opened my mouth, I still felt very uncomfortable.

Old Master Xia tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. Mrs. Zhou couldn't sleep because of his noise either, so she finally gave in.

"Okay, stop getting mad. Didn't I just tell you to come up with a foolproof plan? If you can't come up with a foolproof plan, then why don't you just not do it? Just put your mind at ease and go to sleep!"

Old Master Xia turned over and over like a pancake, and slowly fell asleep, sighing in his sleep.

Zhou, however, stared at the beams on the roof with her eyes wide open for the entire night.

A few days later, Jin Yong came again, not only bringing a matchmaker, but also bringing his elderly mother.

Originally, Mr. Xia and Mrs. Zhou had a good plan. If Jin Yong came with a matchmaker again, they would block him outside and not even open the gate for him!

I never expected that Jin Yong would even invite the elders in his family this time, so we can't just turn them away.

The old couple welcomed Jin Yong and his unwelcome guests into the house with heavy faces.
