Su Lu didn't care about being hit. In his mind, there was no such thing as face. Money was more important than face.

"Dad, be careful, don't hit my face."

Hitting the back of the head is one thing, but please don't hit the face. You're hoping to find a wife with that face.

Su Zhiyuan was amused and annoyed. "So what if I hit you? You're my son, so I'll hit you if I want, and I'll hit you right in the face."

After saying that, Su Zhiyuan raised his hand, as if to hit Su Lu.

Su Lu quickly dodged away, shouting as he ran home, "I'm going home right now to tell my mother that you won't be kneeling on the washboard when you get back."

Su Zhiyuan wasn't angry at first; he was just joking with his son. But he didn't expect his son to reveal all his secrets. He was so angry that he trembled all over. He clutched his heart and pointed at Su Lu's departing figure, saying to Qin Feng, "Look at him! You said he was a good person, and that I was just joking. Look at what he said!"

Qin Feng calmly replied, "Isn't what he said true?"

Su Zhiyuan was stunned. "You, Qin Feng, fine, fine, you're going to sabotage me. You just wait, I'll wait until the day your wife takes care of you."

After saying that, Su Zhiyuan walked away angrily with his hands behind his back.

Qin Xiaoxiao stared at Qin Feng in disbelief.

I never expected that her uncle, at such an old age, would still be as mischievous as a child!

Qin Feng didn't care at all, and walked home with his hands behind his back.

Qin Ye and Qin Xiaoxiao quickly followed. When they arrived at the educated youth compound, Qin Xiaoxiao wanted to go back first.

"Grandpa, I've arrived. I'm going back to sleep now. I'll go back tomorrow morning."

Qin Feng glanced at Qin Xiaoxiao, "Come home with me tonight."

Without waiting for Qin Xiaoxiao's consent, Qin Feng continued walking forward without saying another word.

Seeing that Qin Feng was probably angry, Qin Xiaoxiao didn't mention going back to the educated youth compound anymore, and followed Qin Ye back to the Qin family home.

After entering the gate, Qin Feng went straight to the main house.

Seeing this, Qin Xiaoxiao and Qin Ye exchanged a glance, and then Qin Ye decisively turned around and went back to his room without looking back.

Qin Xiaoxiao stared in shock at Qin Ye's departing figure.

Is this really my older brother? He just abandoned me like this?

He promised to take care of me for the rest of my life. Is this how he takes care of me?

"Xiaoxiao, come in."

Qin Feng had already started shouting inside. Qin Xiaoxiao had no choice but to bite the bullet and go into the main room.

Once inside, Qin Xiaoxiao leaned against the doorframe and refused to go in.

Qin Feng raised an eyebrow at Qin Xiaoxiao, "Tell me, what happened tonight? Did you do it?"

Qin Xiaoxiao looked up and quickly glanced at Qin Feng and Qin Aiguo's expressions, then looked at Old Madam Qin.

Help! Grandma, my grandpa is going to kill me.

Grandma Qin lowered her head and pretended not to see, carefully adjusting the hem of her clothes.

The clothes are so beautiful; my eldest granddaughter has excellent taste.

Seeing that Grandma Qin was ignoring her, Qin Xiaoxiao had no choice but to look at Qin Feng under pressure, "Hehe, Grandpa, Grandpa, good evening... good evening?"

Qin Xiaoxiao clung to the door frame, on the verge of tears.

Help! Someone please save her!

Her uncle is about to lose his temper!

If she had known, she wouldn't have bothered with Huang's mother.

Qin Xiaoxiao regretted hurting Huang's mother in a fit of anger. She knew that revenge wasn't something to be taken now; there would be plenty of opportunities later. Huang Yuan was still in Qinjiagou and wouldn't be able to go anywhere for the next few years. It was only right for a son to pay for his mother's sins, especially since he wasn't innocent either.

The wrongdoings committed against the original owner were done by the mother and son together; neither of them can escape responsibility.

Qin Feng chuckled as he looked at Qin Xiaoxiao. "Hiding won't help. You can hide for a while, but you can't hide forever. Explain yourself clearly so I can clean up the mess for you."

Seeing that no one could help her, Qin Xiaoxiao could only nod. "Yes, I did it. I was just angry. Back then, they pressured me so much, they wanted my job, and they even tried to trick me into marriage. If I hadn't suddenly woken up and overheard their scheme, the consequences would have been unimaginable. I might be dead by now."

That's absolutely right. She wasn't wrong at all. If she hadn't come, the original owner would have already been sold into the mountains and forced to have children.

Grandma Qin immediately raised her head and glared angrily at Qin Xiaoxiao, "Don't talk nonsense. My eldest granddaughter is fine. As long as I'm alive, no one can touch you."

Grandma Qin looked at Qin Feng again, "Don't go looking for trouble. What did the child do wrong? I think she did the right thing. That mother and son are no good. They are vicious. Who knows if they will try to harm Xiaoxiao again this time?"

I think Xiaoxiao did the right thing. What's it called again? Right, it's called "the one who strikes first is good, the one who strikes later is bad."

Qin Shen looked at Old Madam Qin with a wry smile, "Mother, that's called striking first to gain the upper hand, and striking later to suffer the consequences."

Grandma Qin rolled her eyes. "I don't care what it is. As long as my granddaughter didn't do anything wrong, that's all that matters."

Qin Feng smiled and shook his head, then looked at Qin Xiaoxiao, "I'm not saying you did anything wrong, but I'm reminding you not to give anyone a handle to use against you."

What you did today was far too obvious. Don't you realize that the Huang family only has one enemy in Qinjiagou? No matter what happens to them, you and I are the prime suspects.

However, the old man felt quite relieved. "I've wanted to deal with the Huang family for a long time. It's just that they're far away, and my Qin family can't reach that far, otherwise..."

Qin Feng narrowed his eyes, a flash of murderous intent passing through them.

Anyone who dares to scheme against the Qin family must be able to withstand their wrath; the Qin family is not so easily bullied.

The reason Huang Yuan has been left untouched is simply because a suitable excuse hasn't been found. We can only have him pick up manure for a few days on a small scale. Any more than that would be too much and would easily be criticized.

The Qin family is not without enemies; there are many people watching them, and if they make a mistake, the consequences could be unimaginable.

He didn't want Huang Yuan to become a handle that others could use against the Qin family, so naturally he had to find a suitable opportunity to get rid of that handle.

Qin Xiaoxiao accepted the lesson and lowered her head to admit her mistake, saying, "I know I was wrong. Next time, I will definitely think things through before I act."

Qin Feng laughed, "That's right. Taking action isn't wrong, but you have to clean up the mess. Once the tail is cleaned up, you can do whatever you want."

Xiaoxiao, let's talk about how you managed to drag Huang's mother to Zhao Xing's house. The educated youth compound and Zhao Xing's place aren't close at all.

Here they come, finally here! The old man has finally gotten to the point.

Qin Xiaoxiao swallowed twice, avoiding Qin Feng's gaze, and said in a guilty voice, "It's just... it's just that I found a cart to take it there."

Qin Feng looked at Qin Xiaoxiao with a half-smile, "Whose stroller did you find?"

Qin Xiaoxiao closed her eyes briefly. "I found it. I forgot whose it was from. I just saw it on the road and borrowed it."

"That cart..."

Qin Feng wanted to ask more questions, but Qin Aiguo glanced at him.

Qin Feng immediately shut up and didn't ask any more questions.

Qin Xiaoxiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Qin Feng stopped asking questions halfway through.

Indeed, the saying "one lie requires countless lies to cover it up" is absolutely true.

A stroller? Haha, where is she going to find a stroller? Does her arm count as a stroller?
