Zhang Laogen gave a forced smile and slapped Zhang Cuihua across the face.

"So, isn't this still you coming to steal my family's grain?"

And you even pushed Xiaoqin down, didn't you? Do you know my son is gone? Do you know it's all because of you?

I didn't expect you to dare come here now, but it's good you've come. Since you're here, let's have a proper talk."

Liu Dafu reacted quickly this time. After seeing Zhang Cuihua get slapped, he realized that Zhang Laogen's attitude was wrong. He grabbed his wife and ran out of the yard in a panic.

However, Liu Qinqin, with her hands and feet bound, was left behind to face Zhang Laogen, who was furious but unable to vent his anger.

Looking at the two shameless old men, Zhang Laogen couldn't help but laugh in anger.

He walked over, squatted down in front of Liu Qinqin, reached out and patted her cheek, and smiled disdainfully.

"Why are you running away? With parents like these, why would you run away? You can't expect them to go against me or anyone else for your sake, can you?"

For once, Liu Qinqin raised her head.

“I didn’t want to run away, I just wanted to go back and get revenge on them.”

This was the story she had prepared when she was brought back by those two old men with her hands and feet tied up.

However, it's not just talk; her hatred for Zhang Cuihua and Liu Dafu now completely surpasses all other emotions.

On the way back, she thought it through clearly: she wanted to please Zhang Laogen, and ideally, bring Zhang Laogen along to take revenge on them.

Even if Zhang Laogen is unwilling to deal with them, at least he shouldn't restrict her freedom.

Liu Qinqin appeared calm, but her eyes seemed to hold a deep-seated hatred.

At just one glance, Zhang Laogen believed him eighty percent.

"Are you really going to get revenge on them? Why?"

Liu Qinqin gave a cold laugh.

Why? Don't you even know why?

If they hadn't had malicious intentions and insisted on coming here to steal food and chickens, I wouldn't have been pushed to the ground by them.

If they hadn't come to steal my things, you wouldn't have hit me when you came back, and my child wouldn't have..."

As she spoke, Liu Qinqin choked up, but she forced herself not to cry.

It was this stubborn look that made Zhang Laogen feel sorry for him, so he quickly went over and hugged him.

"Okay, I'll allow you to take revenge on them, but you have to let me know before you go out in the future, otherwise I'll panic if I can't find you."

Liu Qinqin didn't say anything or move, letting Zhang Laogen hold her, which was considered tacit consent.

From then on, Zhang Laogen really stopped restricting Liu Qinqin's freedom. After explaining things to her, Liu Qinqin was even free to go shopping in the city.

That day, after she told Zhang Laogen, she was not only allowed to enter the city, but Zhang Laogen also gave her a dollar so she could buy whatever she wanted.

Liu Qinqin stared at the one yuan without moving, then looked up at Zhang Laogen, her eyes red, but in the end she didn't say anything, took the money and left.

After walking quite a distance, she heard Zhang Laogen calling her to come back early, and she turned around and replied with a complicated expression.

Shangshui Village is near Kyoto, and according to Liu Qinqin's walking pace, it only takes about forty minutes to get there.

However, after returning to Kyoto this time, she only stood in front of the Liu family's house for a short while before heading straight to the largest black market near their home.

For some reason, she didn't even bother to disguise herself before walking right in.

Zhu Qinghao was originally observing near the Liu family's house, looking for an opportunity to teach them a lesson again, but as soon as she arrived, she bumped into Liu Qinqin standing at the Liu family's door.
