Chapter 10 Don’t act, don’t cry, don’t howl
The bride price!
In order to show off their superiority, the Tian family gave all the money to Tian Lingshan and Qiao Wanqing.
As a result, after dinner in the evening, Yang Ailian came to Qiao Wanqing's room and reached out.
Qiao Wanqing did not hesitate and directly put the broom in her palm.
“…”
"Mom, I haven't swept the back of the door yet, can you help me sweep it?" It would be a waste if you don't use the free labor that comes to your door.
Actually, it doesn’t matter whether you clean the house or not!
But she didn't want Yang Ailian to be idle, so...
The other party had his own purpose, so he just picked up the broom and started sweeping.
After finally finishing sweeping, she reached out her hand again and was handed a rag and asked to wipe the window.
"you……"
"What's wrong? Mom, aren't you here to help clean? After all, the Qin family may come over at any time." Qiao Wanqing seemed to not understand Yang Ailian's purpose in coming to see her, and looked at her puzzledly.
"How could that be? I came here just to see if you need to buy anything!" Yang Ailian also knew that this girl was different from before, so she began to adopt a roundabout tactic.
"Mom, if you say so, I still need two sets of clothes, quilts and so on. Look at my house, the only valuable things are probably the broken bowls, the pot with a leaking bottom, and the bench with one of the four legs missing..." Seeing that Qiao Wanqing was still chattering, Yang Ailian's face turned black.
"Kid, don't you know what the situation is at home? There are so many mouths to feed, and we really don't have any spare money to buy anything. You have the betrothal gift, so you can buy it if you need it!" The more Yang Ailian spoke, the more guilty she felt. She was acting unreasonable and arrogant!
"Oh, so everything in my sister's room was bought with the betrothal money."
Yang Ailian: ...
"No wonder there are so many. It seems like he's been engaged quite a bit! I've heard of bigamy, but I've never heard of reengagement!"
"Don't get too excited the more you talk, the more money you need. Ten dollars is enough for what you want to buy. Leave the rest with me. I'll save it for you and let you take it away when you get married."
"Mom, the pie you drew is too big and hard to chew. I have bad teeth, so I won't eat it." Qiao Wanqing refused directly.
Keeping it for her would be like throwing meat buns at a dog, and nothing would come back.
"It's okay if you don't let her stay with me. Then there will be no dowry for the wedding." Yang Ailian found that she really couldn't control her daughter, so she started to speak harshly.
"It's as if I can get it if I give it to you!" Sometimes, the truth is the most hurtful.
Yang Ailian was stunned at first, and then she started to sit down, but Qiao Wanqing grabbed her arm and said, "Stop it, don't cry, don't howl!"
"I……"
"You're like an old sow putting on a bra, one set after another. I know all your tricks, so stop it, it's annoying!"
"Qiao Wanqing..."
"Shh, keep your voice down. If I were you, I would take this time to go and see what Tian Dashan has prepared for our daughter. After all, you are married, and everything Tian Dashan gives you is your marital property. You have the right to control half of it. Where the money is, there is love!" Qiao Wanqing knew what she cared about.
Sure enough, after she finished speaking, Yang Ailian became interested.
He left before she could count to ten in her mind.
The betrothal money was saved, but only for tonight.
And tonight, the front yard must be very lively!
midnight!
Qiao Wanqing heard rustling sounds while she was sleeping, so she stood up and picked up the axe on the ground.
I saw a knife cut open the bolt.
Haha, it seems that the deterrent effect of sharpening the knife only lasts for a few hours!
But she could never have imagined that the next second, the person who came into her sight was him!
"Wanqing, you haven't slept yet!" The familiar voice was particularly disgusting.
That’s right, it’s Tian Dashan.
"Uncle Tian stayed up late at night and secretly opened the bolt of my room just to see if I was asleep?" Qiao Wanqing carried the axe directly on her shoulder.
The moon tonight is big and round, shining through the window, making the room very bright.
You can even see the other person's facial features clearly!
"Uncle Tian thought that you are getting married soon, and he has a few words to tell you!" While speaking, he tried to get closer step by step.
"If you move forward, I'll chop the hell out of you." Qiao Wanqing's tone was cold, and the axe on her shoulder looked ready to go, which made Tian Dashan shudder.
"Girl, I just think that your father died early, and as your stepfather, I have the obligation to teach you how to be someone's wife!" Although his steps stopped, his mouth was still talking.
"Get to the point!" Qiao Wanqing didn't believe it. He went to great lengths to come in in the middle of the night just to say this.
"The point is that I will teach you how to be someone's wife." Tian Dashan was also determined to do it. He came here in the middle of the night, so of course he would not leave like that.
As he said that, he rushed forward, and Qiao Wanqing swung the machete in her hand, really aiming for the shoulder blade without any hesitation.
"Ugh, ah..." At such a critical moment, Qiao Wanqing's right hand, which was wielding the machete, was grabbed by someone's wrist, and her whole body was protected in his arms. Tian Dashan fell flat on his face, then curled up his body, looking like he was in great pain.
The moment she raised her head and saw Qin Jingming, Qiao Wanqing's eyes turned red.
"Be good, it's okay, I'm here." Qin Jingming was extremely grateful that he couldn't sleep tonight. He tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. He walked to the mountain behind her house. When he heard the movement inside, he jumped over the wall and rushed over.
It was because he rushed in that no disaster occurred!
Qin Jingming felt a little distressed when he saw the stubborn and strong little girl in his arms.
I don’t know if it was because Tian Dashan’s wailing was too loud, or if Yang Ailian was not asleep at all.
She rushed in and immediately asked Tian Dashan about his well-being, fearing that something might have happened to him.
"Ai Lian, girls cannot be kept at home when they grow up. I, sigh..." Tian Dashan wanted to say something but stopped, looking at Qiao Wanqing with helplessness in his eyes.
I have to admire this couple, each one is better at acting than the other. I don’t know what brand of plastic bags they are, how can they hold so much?
"You are a girl, yet you have no shame." Yang Ailian scolded Qiao Wanqing angrily, without any sympathy, only strong hatred.
Qin Jingming wanted to say something when he saw this, but Qiao Wanqing pulled his sleeve and shook her head at him, signaling him not to speak.
I just heard that she had a hard time in the Tian family, but I never thought it would be so sad.
How did she manage to get through it?
With such a small body, she has to bear too many things that she shouldn't bear.
"Yes, I have no shame, so get out!" It's not that I don't want to explain, but that explanation is useless.
No matter how hard she tried, Yang Ailian wouldn't believe her, and Qiao Wanqing was exhausted from dealing with it.
You can never wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep, and of course, you can never wake up a woman who is pretending to be stupid to be loved!
