"The big-butt woman later had several more trysts with the landlord Bai, and she even said that she had given him another son. The landlord Bai wanted to take him home to raise, but the woman refused, and the two of them stopped seeing each other afterwards."
The old camphor tree kept muttering to herself, and Ruan Qiqi's heart skipped a beat. She suddenly thought of something.
Old Man Ruan is so cold to Father Ruan, he doesn't seem like his biological father at all. Could it be that Father Ruan is the son of a wealthy landlord?
Because he knew that the child was not his biological child, he was so cruel. This explains it.
Ruan Qiqi frowned, feeling quite sympathetic towards Ruan's father. Since childhood, he had neither been loved by his father nor his mother, and he had to rely on himself to make a name for himself. However, he was unable to fight against God and died in his early forties.
However, Old Lady Ruan did do a good thing indirectly. If Landlord Bai had really allowed her to take Father Ruan back, she would now be a landlord's daughter.
Ruan Qiqi's mind moved and her eyes lit up. She thought of a good way to take revenge on Ruan Guiming.
Ruan Dad and Ruan Guiming are only one year apart in age. There is no paternity test yet, so even Old Lady Ruan herself may not know who the fathers of these two sons are. Maybe they are both descendants of white landlords?
After all, Old Man Ruan is not as brave as the White Landlord, and the Tadpole’s energy must not be very good either, so he cannot beat the White Landlord.
As long as Ruan Guiming is labeled as a landlord, he will never be able to turn things around.
Ruan Qiqi already had a general plan in mind. After thinking about the details when she returned, she would be able to implement it.
"Second sister, have you rested?"
Ruan Xiaoxue called out.
"alright."
Ruan Qiqi said goodbye to the old camphor tree. The old camphor tree was reluctant to let her go and asked her to come back in the evening to chat with it.
"Okay, I'll definitely come tonight."
Ruan Qiqi agreed. She wanted to dig for gold bars, and she also had to find out if Mr. Bai had any birthmarks or moles on his body.
The two sisters entered the village together. There were many people working in the fields along the roadside.
"Bai Sanyuan, what are you dithering about? You are holding the whole team back. You lazy landlords must be punished!"
There were extremely arrogant curses coming from the ground.
Ruan Qiqi looked over and saw that the person being scolded was a middle-aged man, about 40 or 50 years old, with a hunched back, thin and gentle, and looked like a teacher. He did not dare to talk back after being scolded, but kept smiling and tried to work faster.
This Bai Sanyuan is none other than the son of the landlord Bai. He looks somewhat like Ruan Dad and Ruan Guiming, after all, they are born of the same mother.
Ruan Qiqi smiled and said that this would be easier to handle.
"Bai Huanxi's father is actually a good person. The one who cursed is the bad one, his cousin Li Hailiang. The whole family is bad."
Ruan Xiaoxue was indignant. She had a good relationship with Bai Sanyuan's daughter Bai Huanxi.
No one in the village wanted to play with the landlord's son, and Ruan Xiaoxue didn't know Bai Huanxi. Once, she went to the commune to buy something and got her period on the way, which made her pants dirty. It was Bai Huanxi who reminded her and gave her toilet paper to avoid making a bigger embarrassment.
Since then, Ruan Xiaoxue became familiar with Bai Huanxi and they often played together.
She also liked Bai Sanyuan very much. She thought he was very kind and not a bad person. Unlike other landlords who were extremely bad, Bai Sanyuan was very good to the farmhands and never withheld their wages. He would even stew meat for the farmhands during the busy farming season. He had a very kind heart.
Bai Huanxi also said that in the past, when someone in the village fell ill and had no money to treat their illness, her father would lend money. The lent money was basically never returned, and her father never chased after the debtor. However, some of those who borrowed money and did not pay it back were the ones who bullied her father the most, and they would always beat them to death.
Fortunately, there were still some people who remembered her kindness and helped secretly, so her father was not bullied to death.
"Bai Huanxi is Bai Sanyuan's daughter?"
Ruan Qiqi became interested. The original body didn't tell her that Ruan Xiaoxue knew Bai Sanyuan's daughter.
"Second sister, I...I didn't hide it from you on purpose. I was afraid you would be angry."
Ruan Xiaoxue lowered her head and her voice became lower and lower.
Because her second sister had repeatedly emphasized in the past that she should not play with the landlord's son, so as not to get into trouble. She knew that her second sister was right, but Bai Huanxi had helped her and they got along well, so she couldn't help but want to get close to him.
"Huanxi and I were very careful and didn't let anyone see us playing together. Really, second sister, I didn't lie to you!"
Ruan Xiaoxue didn't hear Ruan Qiqi talking, and thought she was angry, so she hurried to explain.
Ruan Qiqi was not angry at all. She was thinking about a plan to frame Ruan Guiming.
"You can play together, but be careful not to let anyone grab your braids."
Ruan Qiqi is not afraid of causing trouble, but Ruan Xiaoxue is different, so she still has to be careful.
After all, the Bai family’s label of landlords could not be removed until seven or eight years later.
Ruan Xiaoxue was stunned for a moment, then her face lit up with joy and she asked happily, "Second sister, do you have any objection to me playing with Huanxi?"
"No objection, but you have to be careful."
Ruan Qiqi reached out and picked a white camellia flower, pulled out the yellow core in the middle, and sucked the nectar from the flower. She loved sucking nectar from flowers when she was a child, especially from canna and camellia flowers, which had large amounts of nectar and were sweet.
Camellia oleifera, also known as tea tree, blooms in winter and spring. Its nectar is delicious. The oil extracted from its fruit is tea oil.
But when she grew up, pollution became more and more serious, so her parents stopped letting her smoke, and many tea trees were cut down, so they were basically no longer seen in the city.
It is now the end of March and the tea trees have passed their peak flowering period, with only a few flowers scattered around. But now there are more delicious delicacies. In a forest of tea trees like this one, there will definitely be tea bubbles.
There is a small tea grove at the foot of the mountain on the way to Li Hailiang's house. Ruan Qiqi didn't spend much time finding a few extra-large tea bubbles, which tasted crispy and sour and sweet.
"Second sister, this is for you!"
Ruan Xiaoxue found a tea bubble that was a variation of tea fruit, which tasted better, so she handed it over in a flattering manner.
Tea bubble, this is a leaf mutation
This is a fruit mutation, very delicious
Ruan Qiqi took it and put it into her mouth to chew. It was indeed more delicious than the leaves.
"Second sister, can I really play with Bai Huanxi?"
Ruan Xiaoxue asked cautiously, feeling uneasy because her second sister had strongly opposed it before.
"Well, find a few more."
Ruan Qiqi searched for a long time but couldn't find the mutated tea fruit, so she asked Ruan Xiaoxue to look for it. This girl has a very sharp eye.
"Why!"
Ruan Xiaoxue was very happy and actively looked for tea bubbles. She was agile and climbed up the tea tree to look for them. She soon found a bunch and jumped down the tree with her clothes around her.
"Let's go to my eldest sister's house!"
Ruan Qiqi stuffed all the tea bubbles into her pocket, actually putting them into the space, and then turned around to eat them slowly.
Li Hailiang's home is at the foot of the mountain. It is a newly built three-room blue brick bungalow. His family conditions are average. He is the eldest in the family. He has an older sister who is married and a younger brother who is also married.
However, the woman my younger brother married was sweet-talking and coaxing, and she also gave birth to a son, who was quite liked by my parents-in-law and did not have to do any housework at home. The whole family bullied Ruan Shuangjiang and her two daughters.
"I'll beat you to death, you lazy bastard. You can't even give birth to a son, and you still have the nerve to eat eggs? No matter how defensive you are, you can never guard against a thief in your own home. I'll beat you to death, you bastard!"
From afar, one could hear an old woman cursing and a child crying.
Ruan Xiaoxue's expression changed, and she said anxiously, "That damn old woman is bullying me again!"
Ruan Qiqi frowned. He would be beaten and scolded even for eating an egg. What a miserable life Ruan Shuangjiang led. It was even more miserable than that of the lowly slaves in Xinzheku!
Ruan Xiaoxue was impatient and ran in front, while Ruan Qiqi followed slowly. The old woman's curses became more and more unpleasant, even cursing the dead Ruan father.
"You are a bad luck girl born to a bad luck man. My family must be unlucky to marry a bad luck girl like you. You gave birth to two money-losing babies for me and made my Hailiang a laughing stock. You still have the nerve to eat eggs? Why don't you just die?"
"Mom, Pan Di was sick, so I cooked an egg for her. Don't scold my dad, he's dead!"
Ruan Shuangjiang finally spoke up. It was okay for her to be scolded, but she couldn't implicate her father. If he died, she would be implicated and scolded as well. She was too unfilial.
"What's wrong with scolding your father? How dare you talk back? Money-losing goods are not that precious. You still need to eat eggs when you have a minor illness. The eggs are for my grandson to eat. I didn't give these two money-losing goods away, which is already a great kindness. If you steal eggs again in the future, I will give them away immediately!"
Along with the old lady Li’s scolding, there was also the sound of crisp slapping.
Ruan Xiaoxue, who was extremely angry, wanted to rush in, but was stopped by Ruan Qiqi. She looked around and picked up a hard and straight shoulder pole from the courtyard wall.
"I'll beat you to death, you old loser. My father is a man, what right do you have to scold him, you old loser, take this with me!"
Ruan Qiqi picked up the carrying pole, rushed into the main room (living room) without saying a word, and hit Old Lady Li with the carrying pole.
Old lady Li was hit on the shoulder by a carrying pole, and the pain almost made her die. Before she could react, she heard a crackling sound, and all the tables and chairs in the main room were smashed.
There were also two kettles that were smashed to pieces, with hot water and glass fragments splashing all over the floor.
[Sorry, the update is a little late, because when I was climbing the mountain and crossing the suspension bridge yesterday, I was so scared that my legs went weak and I had to use my hands and feet to climb over. Today, my hands don’t have much strength, so I can’t write fast, but I will update with 6,000 words in the future. I love you guys.]
