"How did you do it?"

His brows were furrowed, and he spoke in a low voice because he was afraid of waking Wang Juan, but it was not difficult to hear the anger in his tone.

Ye Qing originally planned to cry and complain as soon as the three people entered the door, but she ignored that Wang Juan had not woken up yet. Now it was a bit awkward. Ye Fang and the other two looked at her and asked with their eyes: Are you still crying?

Ye Qing coughed lightly and said, "Dad, let Fangfang take care of my brother. Let's go outside and talk."

Ye Erzhu also wanted to know what had happened, so he nodded and put the child on another bed. He said a few words to Ye Fang, then followed Ye Qing out. Ye Lan and Ye Ping also followed.

When they arrived outside the ward, Ye Erzhu checked the two little girls. Seeing that they had several wounds on their bodies, he was furious and asked, "What happened?"

Ye Qing gave Ye Lan a look without saying anything. Seeing that her father was aggrieved, Ye Lan's mood was instantly aroused again, and tears fell down. "My grandma beat us. My second sister, Pingping and I were almost beaten to death. My aunt and Ye Baozhu also beat us. They held us down. We couldn't run away even if we wanted to! Dad, you are not at home, and no one is on our side! Wuuuu~ Dad, I dare not go back. I'm afraid of being beaten to death. Grandma has already driven us all out. She said that if we go back, she will break our legs. She also said that you can't go back. There will be no us in this family in the future. Wuuuu~"

When Ye Ping saw her crying, she started crying too. Ye Qing reached out and held her in his arms, gently stroking her head.

"Dad, I met the three of them on the way back, so I quickly brought them to the hospital for medicine. What do you think we should do? My grandma doesn't treat us as a family at all. She only thinks of the first wife for all the good things. You and my mom earn so much throughout the year, but we give it all to the first wife, but we still get nothing good. They didn't even give money to my mom to go to the hospital when she had a difficult delivery. If I didn't go and rob them, who knows what would have happened to my mom and brother! They don't treat our family as human beings at all. Look at how Lanlan and the others were beaten. Is this something a grandmother would do?"

Dad, are you her biological child? "

Ye Erzhu looked at the pitiful eyes of his three daughters and felt a pain in his heart due to the guilt he felt inside.

"Dad is useless and made you suffer. Your grandma was just saying that out of anger. She won't really kick us out. I will find a way to return the money to her. Your mom has given birth to a younger brother now. Your grandma will definitely be happy."

Ye Qing felt angry and amused when listening to his words. His father was really naive!

"You still think that we are spending her money! You, my mother, and our four sisters have earned work points for the family since we were young, right? We are spending the money we earn ourselves! Why should we pay it back! I even think it's too little! For so many years, our family has been working like slaves for them. They eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks, while we eat coarse food. We don't have a new piece of clothing all year round, and we have patches on top of patches, while their family only has new clothes every two or three years!

So what if my mom gave birth to a son? Do you think she would change her attitude towards our family because of this? At most, she would be more fond of my brother, but what about the rest of us? What about my mom? In her eyes, we are not as valuable as the two old hens at home! Dad, you are almost 40 years old, why can't you see it?

I'm going to make it clear to you right now. I don't want to live like this any longer, or I'll die someday without knowing how. Before my mom is discharged from the hospital, let's divide the family! Let her have a peaceful confinement, or she might suffer some torture when she goes back!

If you don't want to take care of us anymore, and don't mind if we get beaten or bullied, then I'll take my mom and Lanlan out to live somewhere else, and you can stay at home and take care of her alone!"

Ye Qing knew what kind of person his father was. If he wanted him to agree to split up the family, he would have to use drastic measures. He should magnify the pitifulness of his family infinitely, arouse all his guilt, and force him to make a choice for the sake of his wife and children.

If it weren't for the family division, as a girl, she wouldn't have the final say and she wouldn't have had to go through so much trouble to get his consent.

"Qingqing! What nonsense are you talking about!"

Listening to her questions and complaints, Ye Erzhu felt very uncomfortable, but he was just a rough man who grew up in the fields. He didn't know how to speak big principles, let alone educate children. He could only try to stop her with a sharp tone.

"I'm telling the truth. If you don't care about us, we won't want you as our father. My mom definitely doesn't want to live a hopeless life like this. Then we won't want you anymore. Just go with your mom!"

"you!"

Ye Erzhu was so excited that he reached out to hit her, but Ye Qing was not afraid and just stood there with her neck stiff, staring at him unconvinced.

"Dad, don't hit my sister!"

Seeing this, Ye Lan rushed over and hugged Ye Erzhu and moved back to prevent him from hitting Ye Qing.

Seeing that he was angry and scared, Ye Ping hugged Ye Qing and cried loudly.

"Just beat me to death. I'll be relieved if you kill me, and I won't have to suffer while I'm alive!"

Ye Qing had already made up his mind to take advantage of this opportunity to force him to agree. Seeing him so angry, he knew that he had touched his sore spot.

"well!"

Seeing her look at him, Ye Erzhu slowly put down his hand, sighed heavily, then turned around and walked out of the hospital corridor with a somewhat lonely look.

Ye Qing looked at his disappearing back, just blinked and said nothing.

He needs to calm down and think carefully!

"Sister, will Dad still agree to split up the family?"

Ye Lan looked up at Ye Qing. Dad was so angry just now, would he ignore them?

Ye Qing patted her head gently, "I don't know either. I hope he can figure it out."

——

After Xiang Changlin returned to the brigade, he returned the flatbed truck first before going home.

"Why did you come back just now?"

Lin Cuixin was drying clothes in the yard. When she saw him come back so late, she looked up and asked.

"Are you hungry? I've left some sweet potatoes for you in the pot. Go eat them."

"Um."

He nodded to Changlin, washed his hands in the basin, and then went to the kitchen to get some sweet potatoes to eat. He had walked a long way today and only ate a meat bun and a steamed corn bread, so he was already hungry.

He sat on the doorstep eating a sweet potato, glanced at Lin Cuixin who was drying clothes, thought for a moment and said, "Mom, I want to tell you something."

"What's up?"

Lin Cuixin didn't even look at him and just kept drying her clothes.

"Do we have any eggs left?"

Hearing him asking about eggs, Lin Cuixin stopped what she was doing and looked at him and asked, "Why are you asking about eggs?"

"Well, my Aunt Juan just gave birth via caesarean section, and I wanted to give her a few eggs to nourish her body."

"Which Aunt Juan? Why did you send her eggs when she gave birth? Your dad doesn't even have enough to eat!"

Xiang Changlin touched his nose a little embarrassedly and said, "It's Aunt Juan from my uncle Erzhu's family, Qingqing's mother."
