Based on his years of understanding of his wife, Qin Aiguo felt that he shouldn't go into the house today.

Unfortunately, Old Mrs. Qin wouldn't let him off so easily. With just one look, Qin Aiguo trembled again and obediently followed his wife into the house.

After Qin Aiguo entered the room, Qin Xiaoxiao was kicked out of the room and almost fell flat on her face.

Steadying herself, Qin Xiaoxiao looked at the door behind her with dissatisfaction. "Grandma, you've hit me and scolded me, that's enough. You've made me lose face in front of the whole family, that's going too far!"

Old Mrs. Qin let out a cold laugh, "Is that so? Come in, come in and kiss your grandmother again, let me see if you're not so bad."

Qin Xiaoxiao swallowed hard, her body betraying her as she took three big steps back. "No, no, that's fine. It's good. Grandma and Grandpa, you two can continue your kissing. Grandma, I'm going home now."

After saying that, Qin Xiaoxiao ran off without looking back, not even having time to say goodbye to Qin Feng, Ma Dahua, and Qin Ye along the way.

Qin Ye glanced at Qin Xiaoxiao and saw that she was fine and did not seem to have suffered any external injuries, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Why didn't you stop me when I was little? You just stood outside pretending you didn't hear anything? Qin Aiguo, do you have a heart? That's your own granddaughter, don't you feel any love for her?"

Qin Ye suddenly looked up at the main house, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Has his grandma gone mad today? It was such a small mistake, why is his grandpa being blamed too?

If trying to persuade them doesn't work, and ignoring them doesn't work either, then what should they do?

"No, honey, let me explain."

"I won't listen. It's all your fault. You were wrong not to stop me in time. You didn't feel any pity when you heard your granddaughter screaming so pitifully. So Xiaoxiao isn't a member of your Qin family?"

"Fine, so you doubt me."

Qin Aiguo was stunned. "What did I suspect you of?"

"You suspect that Xiaoxiao isn't a child of your Qin family, which is why you don't care whether she lives or dies. Xiaoxiao is the third brother's biological daughter, so doesn't that mean you suspect that the third brother isn't your biological daughter? Therefore, you suspect that I've cheated on you?"

Not to mention Qin Aiguo, even Qin Feng, Ma Dahua, and Qin Ye's family of three, who had just realized what was happening and wanted to run away, were stunned and stood there dumbfounded.

How did his wife (mother) (grandmother) come to this conclusion?

Isn't this a classic example of being completely unreasonable?

"Wow! My life is so miserable. After all these years with you, you actually doubt me... Waaah... I can't live like this anymore."

Qin Aiguo swallowed twice, then silently looked up at the sky.

He spoiled his wife too much, so much so that she became unruly and dared to do that...

"Wife, I was wrong. I swear, I never doubted you. I just thought that Xiao Xiao is still young, so a few hits wouldn't hurt, as long as you could vent your anger."

"What do you mean? Are you saying I'm old?"

Qin Aiguo was stunned again.

When did I say that? Did I mean that in my words just now?

Qin Aiguo fell into deep self-doubt.

"Well, before anything's even happened, you're already complaining that I'm old. I may be old, but I'm not unable to walk, Qin Ai..."

Then suddenly there was no sound from inside the house. Qin Feng and his family of three were curious and wanted to peek through the crack in the door, but then they remembered that the two people inside were a married couple. What could they be doing if they stopped arguing halfway through? They knew without even thinking.

that is……

The old man looks to be in good health!

Qin Ye wasn't married yet and didn't quite understand these things, but seeing his parents' sly smiles, he knew it wasn't the right time for him to go and bother them.

Qin Xiaoxiao escaped and almost burst into tears the moment she stepped out of the Qin family's gate.

My goodness, she's had it so tough. No wonder she's a cannon fodder character with no scenes; even doing good deeds gets her punished.

Why am I always the one who gets hurt? Is this the tragedy of being cannon fodder?

Is it destined suffering, or an inescapable calamity in one's fate?

Damn, those two mean the same thing.

Damn it, am I, Qin Xiaoxiao, going to live like this from now on?

Doing good deeds is unacceptable, and doing bad deeds is even more unacceptable. How is she supposed to live like this?

So, she can just do nothing from now on, right? Pretend she doesn't see anything no matter what happens?

Damn, I'm so tired!

"Did you just come out or are you trying to go back in? You've been leaning against the wall for ages, and you haven't moved an inch. You..."

Su Lu's voice suddenly came from behind, and Qin Xiaoxiao was startled, turning around abruptly.

Su Lu looked at Qin Xiaoxiao's face and frowned. "Why are you crying? Who bullied you? Tell me, and I'll help you get revenge."

Qin Xiaoxiao was incredibly touched!

See? See? There are still people in this world who care about me.

She got beaten up by her grandma, and the family of three in the yard not only didn't stop her, but even after she was beaten and chased away, they didn't chase after her to ask her anything. What a waste of her sincere feelings.

"It's nothing, I was just helping my grandma exercise."

Qin Xiaoxiao wiped away her tears, pretending to be strong as she raised her small face so that Su Lu could see the tear stains on her face.

Upon hearing that it was Old Madam Qin, Su Lu immediately betrayed her.

"Ah, it's Grandma Qin. Then it's all right."

Qin Xiaoxiao was shocked.

What? You're alright? Didn't you see the tears on my face? Aren't you going to say a few words of comfort?

Su Lu reached out and pulled Qin Xiaoxiao's sleeve, leading her up the mountain.

"Come on, I'll take you to eat roast chicken. There's nothing a roast chicken can't solve."

"If it's not good enough, how about we eat another meal?"

Qin Xiaoxiao responded smoothly, subconsciously continuing Su Lu's words.

Su Lu looked at Qin Xiaoxiao in surprise, then suddenly burst into laughter, "You're right, if not two meals, then two, you glutton!"

Su Lu thought Qin Xiaoxiao hadn't eaten roast chicken in a long time and wanted to eat it a few more times.

Qin Xiaoxiao frowned. "I'm not a glutton."

Seeing Qin Xiaoxiao's serious expression, Su Lu wanted to laugh again, and casually replied, "Okay, I'm not a glutton."

Qin Xiaoxiao was comforted by Su Lu's kind words and obediently followed him up the mountain.

An hour later, Qin Xiaoxiao threw the chicken leg bone aside and looked up at the sky with a look of utter disbelief.

What happened to our promise not to share a room with this guy anymore? How could you forget that so quickly?

Now that I've eaten another chicken from him, how am I going to repay him later?

Qin Xiaoxiao looked worried, but Su Lu had no idea what she was thinking. He just felt that Qin Xiaoxiao was acting strangely today, not as lively as usual.

Was he driven mad by Grandma Qin's beating? Or is he just uncomfortable being with him?

Yes, she does like him. Now that her sweetheart is sitting next to her, she must be feeling unsettled. Maybe she's even thinking about how to tell him she wants to leave.

"Well, thank you for the roast chicken. I'm full, so I'll be going now. Same as always, you can come down later, it wouldn't look good if someone saw us."

A knowing glint flashed in Su Lu's eyes.

Sure enough, he was right; she was going to run away.

"Okay, you go first. I'll put out the fire before I leave. Be careful going down the mountain by yourself."

Qin Xiaoxiao nodded and quickly stood up and ran down the mountain.
