"Whose old woman has run away because no one cares about her? What are you doing staring into my house? Did you come here today to extort some money from my sister-in-law Qin Zheng?"
Tian Xiaohui's scolding was utterly merciless.
With sleeves rolled up and hands on hips, she clapped her hands and said loudly, "Hey! Or are you envious because Brother Qin Zheng found me a good husband, and you're getting impatient, wanting Brother Qin Zheng to find a good husband for your daughter from the Guo family too?"
"Pah!"
"I've already cut ties with you, yet you keep clinging to me like a toad. What were you doing all this time?!"
"Now you want to bask in the good fortune of my brother Qin Zheng and sister-in-law, and remember your son Qin Zheng? Too late! Look at all the good deeds you've done, aren't you ashamed!"
Only now did Ye Yun realize how sharp-tongued this girl was.
Tian Xiaohui has a loud voice, always full of energy. She clapped her hands and stomped her feet, which attracted the attention of many people who were already watching the Tian family. This attracted the surrounding neighbors to come out and watch the excitement.
The villager grinned, showing off his bright white teeth, and said, "Hui-meizi! Who are you yelling at?"
"Everyone knows who she's cursing!" Tian Xiaohui rolled up her sleeves again, looking fearlessly at the wall where Li Xiuying was hiding, and said bluntly, "She just got home and she's already clinging to me like glue! She wants to get something out of my brother Qin Zheng and sister-in-law. I advise her not to dream on!"
"Tian Xiaohui!"
Aunt Tian shouted angrily.
Tian Xiaohui was so frightened that she trembled. She turned her head and saw Aunt Tian carrying a fire poker, her eyebrows furrowed and her eyes blazing as she charged towards her menacingly.
"You little bastard! You just got back, your future man is still inside, and you're out there fighting with someone? Do you even have the manners of a girl?! I'll give you a good thrashing!"
"ah!"
Tian Xiaohui was so frightened that she ran away as fast as she could.
A mother's beating, though late, always comes!
The villagers watching burst into laughter.
"Hui-mei is so lucky! She quietly found a boyfriend who is an official, and an official in the county town at that. She's going to have a good life from now on!"
"That's right, Old Tian's daughter has been a tomboy since she was little. Few of the kids in the village could beat her. I don't know who would dare to marry her. Now we know, she's skilled and daring, she's our people's hero!"
"Hahahaha! Old Tian, don't hurt the child badly, or she'll have two marks from firewood sticks on her body when she gets married tomorrow, how ugly!"
"Mother! Stop hitting her!"
Another burst of laughter followed.
As Tian Xiaohui ran away, clutching her bottom, she jumped and hopped like a monkey, shouting and begging for mercy: "Mom, I know I was wrong! I just wanted to help my sister-in-law get revenge! Mom, please don't hit me!"
There were too many people outside, and she couldn't bear to lose face, so she quickly ran back to the courtyard.
Aunt Tian also chased after them back to the courtyard.
"Tian Xiaohui, get on the wall!"
A deep yet powerful voice rang out.
Zheng Song was standing at the entrance of the main room. He must have heard the commotion of her being chased and beaten by Aunt Tian. He, Qin Zheng, her father, brother, and sister-in-law were all watching her with smiles.
Tian Xiaohui's face suddenly turned red. "Mom! Stop hitting me! Zheng Song is making fun of me!"
In the blink of an eye, she used the old bicycle by the wall as a stepping stone and quickly climbed up to the top of the wall, which made Aunt Tian very angry.
Aunt Tian, holding a fire poker, yelled, "You little brat, get down here right now!"
"I won't play!"
Tian Xiaohui stood on the top of the wall, hugged the tree trunk next to her, and made a face at her mother.
“我下去你就揍我，你也不看我为啥那么做就揍我，你就知道揍我，还得是郑松疼我！”
Aunt Tian rolled her eyes in anger.
"You!" Aunt Tian was at her wits' end, and was both amused and exasperated by Zheng Song's actions. "Little Zheng, I've spoiled her rotten, and you spoil her too. Look at her, she's so smug she's practically flying high!"
Zheng Song smiled faintly.
Tian Xiaohui's words had genuinely pleased him. Leaning against the doorframe, a faint smile played on his lips, he said, "Come down, let's discuss something."
"I don't!"
Tian Xiaohui glanced at Aunt Tian, who was still holding onto the fire poker, and hugged the tree trunk even tighter.
She wasn't going down; she was sure she'd get beaten up if she did.
Zheng Song couldn't help but rub his temples, amused and exasperated by her, "If your mother doesn't hit you, I'll protect you, okay?"
That's very tempting.
Tian Xiaohui hesitated for a moment, but when she saw her mother standing menacingly at the base of the wall with a fire poker, she couldn't help but shudder.
"Just tell me what's on your mind!"
"You child, come down when I tell you to, I won't hit you!" Aunt Tian couldn't wait any longer and banged hard on the stone wall with a fire poker.
Tian Xiaohui shuddered.
Hmm, now she definitely can't go down.
"Alright, Aunt Tian, Xiao Hui is just trying to get revenge for me and Qin Zheng, don't scare her." Ye Yun couldn't help but laugh and turned to give Qin Zheng a wink.
Qin Zheng subtly nudged Zheng Song.
Zheng Song naturally understood Qin Zheng's gaze. He looked up at Tian Xiaohui and said, "I just told my uncle that I want to marry you as soon as possible. My uncle asked me to ask you to discuss our wedding date. You don't want to just casually decide on something like this, do you?"
"Aww!"
Upon hearing this, Tian Xiaohui became so anxious that she fumbled around like a monkey, trying to jump down.
"Slow down!"
Zheng Song quickly strode over.
He quickly walked to the base of the wall, reached out his hand to Tian Xiaohui on the wall, and Tian Xiaohui took his hand and jumped down, just in time to be pulled into his large embrace.
