When this was mentioned, Hua Li's eyes turned red. She wiped her tears with one hand and shook her head in grievance.

"Wuwuwu... I don't know either. They came to our house suddenly, and I don't know why. Then, when grandma heard about it, she beat Hua Xiao up... Wuwuwu... I don't know either..."

Hua Li looked very aggrieved and said several sentences in a row without knowing what was going on.

Perhaps she felt wronged and started sobbing softly again.

Hua Shi felt a little headache. How come she didn’t know before that Hua Li was still a little crybaby?

He was so stubborn before, he looked so arrogant, but now he is crying so hard that his eyes are swollen...

Hua Shi turned to look at Hua Xiao, who had been keeping his head down and not saying a word.

"Hua Xiao? You go ahead and say it."

She vaguely guessed that this was obviously related to Hua Xiao.

Hua Xiao kept his head down, not daring to look at the flowers, and didn't speak.

For a moment, the air was silent except for Hua Li's sobbing.

Hua Shi didn't say anything either, but waited patiently for Hua Xiao to speak.

"I don't know, it's none of my business! You know how she often takes it out on us for no reason. How would I know why she suddenly..."

Hua Xiao remained silent for a long time. After calming down, he suddenly spoke in a muffled voice.

She denied that she had anything to do with the matter, and her tone unconsciously carried a hint of annoyance.

"Hua Xiao!"

Hua Shi frowned and interrupted the little girl's continued denial, his voice becoming a little deeper.

Hua Xiao was stunned by the yelling. She turned her head and saw Hua Shi's eyes staring at her without blinking.

The pair of eyes that looked at her had pupils that were dark and deep, as if they had seen through her clumsy lies...

Hua Xiao bit her lips tightly, feeling dissatisfied and angry. She turned her head away, avoiding Hua Shi's gaze, and remained silent stubbornly.

She was angry and her mind was in a mess...

So what if she did it? So what if it was because of her? Anyway, it had already happened...

Hua Shi looked at her stubborn look. The half of her face turned sideways allowed her to clearly see the dissatisfaction and anger on the little girl's face.

This little girl was so good, she didn't even ask a few questions, but she got angry...

She was about to reach out and turn the person around when Hua Yu's voice suddenly sounded in her ears.

The young man was dressed in dishevel and looked haggard. He was holding a dying pheasant in one hand and a basket containing a cat in the other. He walked over with a staggering limp.

"Hua Xiao, what happened?"

Hua Yu's words were sharp and his expression was unusually gloomy.

When the little girl heard her second brother's voice, her body paused and she looked up stiffly.

“Second brother…?”

Hua Yu put the thing in his hand heavily on the ground, his face gloomy.

He was hiding outside the low wall and heard some of what happened in the Hua family courtyard, including Hua Shi instigating several people to run out of the house and seeing their figures running towards the back mountain.

He also followed, but his legs were not very agile, and he had to hurry and hurry before he finally caught up.

He wasn't stupid either, and guessed most of it, knowing that Hua Xiao was most likely responsible...

Hua Yu came over and pulled Hua Xiao up from the ground. His tone was stern and his eyes were gloomy. He scolded, "Hua Xiao!"

Hua Xiao was extremely scared of her second brother's appearance. She knew that he was angry. She was dragged to her feet and cried in panic, "Wuwuwu... Second brother, don't be angry, I was wrong..."

These two sentences of apology came out of her mouth almost as a stress reaction.

Hua Yu had a sullen face, showing no sign of softening, and stared at her coldly.

Hua Xiao choked twice, wiped her tears aggrievedly, and whispered, "Li Shushu asked me to go out and play a few days ago. When I came back, I saw the grandmother of the Xie family. She pulled me aside and talked for a long time...

She asked me if something happened at home, and she told me that grandma told her about grandpa... I thought she knew, so I said a few words to her..."

Hua Yu's face darkened, and he pulled Hua Xiao over. "You told others about my affairs! What did you say? How much does she know?"

He was a little impatient and pulled Hua Xiao's hand a little harder.

Hua Xiao was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he seemed to suddenly realize the seriousness of the matter.

Her lips trembled, and her voice was so low that it was almost a whisper. "I told her that grandma often gave me medicine, so I couldn't get out of bed..."

Hua Xiao said this, then quickly shook her head and cried, "Wuwu... Second brother, it was Grandma Xie who asked me how Grandpa was doing. She also said that Grandma told her that Grandpa was about to die, and asked me if that was true... I thought she knew... Then she said that Grandma often gave Grandpa medicine..."

Hua Yu let go of his hand, exhaled, and lowered his eyes to think about what happened at home.

The Xie family's grandmother had always been at odds with Grandma, and she was very shrewd. She must have known that Grandma had given Grandpa a mute potion, which had left him unable to get out of bed, but she hadn't told anyone else about it. She was using this to blackmail Grandma into marrying Hua Shi into their Xie family...

Thinking of this, Hua Yu lowered his eyes and looked at Hua Shi who was sitting on the grass.

Hua Shi is married, and she is no longer a member of the Hua family...

Without Hua Shi, there would be only one troublesome person left in the family...

After hearing what Hua Xiao said, Hua Shi knew the whole story. He frowned and was thinking. When he looked up, he saw Hua Yu giving him an obscure look.

Somehow, Hua Yu's eyes seemed to suddenly become clear for a moment, but it was only for a moment, and the pupils in his eyes were covered by darkness again, making it impossible to see the emotions hidden within.
