Xiyue thought about it for a moment, then suddenly took a step back. She looked at the little girl in surprise and asked, "Were you throwing the firecrackers towards Qingtian?"
Now the truth is finally revealed.
Even the little girl's brother looked at her in disbelief.
The little girl bit her lips and refused to speak.
After a while, the other members of the Ye family also rushed over after receiving the news.
As soon as Mrs. Ye entered the house, she went straight to Qingtian without even saying hello to the village chief.
"Where did she throw you? Are you hurt?"
After confirming that Qingtian's clothes were just dirty and he wasn't injured, Sister Ye breathed a sigh of relief and scolded him lovingly, "Hey kid, why didn't you tell your mother about Sanshier's incident when you got home?"
"She didn't throw mud at me that day..." Qingtian said in a low voice a little embarrassedly, and then buried his head in Mrs. Ye's arms, "If she hadn't thrown mud at me again today, I would have forgotten about it."
Boss Ye asked, "Village Chief, whose child is this? Why haven't I seen him before?"
"Hey, isn't that Ye Laizi's house at the end of the village?"
"Didn't Ye Laizi just get married before the New Year? His child is already this big?" asked Boss Ye in surprise.
Ye Laizi's family was of average means, and he was bald, so he had never been able to marry. This was something everyone in the village knew.
They finally got married at the end of last year. It was not a big wedding. They just set up a table of wine at home and invited a few relatives and friends, so the Ye family didn't know what the situation was in his family.
"He's almost thirty, what else can he choose?
"These two children were brought here by his wife. The older one is called Lü Fei and the younger one is called Lü Hui.
“But I heard from the villagers that Ye Laizi beats children when he gets angry.
"Not only do the two children have to work, but they never have enough to eat. They didn't even get new clothes for the New Year. They're really pitiful."
After hearing the village chief's words, the Ye family's expressions instantly eased a lot.
Mrs. Ye looked at the old clothes that no longer fit the two children and softened her tone and asked, "Little girl, why are you bullying my Qingtian?
"You are older than her and are the older sister. You should play with your younger sister, don't you think?"
But Lu Hui turned her head away and said, "I don't want her to be my sister!"
When the boys from the Ye family heard this, they immediately refused to do it.
"Who do you think you are? Why do you look down on my sunny day?"
"You can't even have a sister as nice as Sunny Day!"
"My Sunny doesn't want a sister as mean-spirited as you!"
"I'm telling you, stay away from my sister, or I'll beat you up every time I see you!"
Several people talked to each other and finally made Lu Hui cry.
"Wow--
"Your family is full of evil-minded people!
"Your family's good life is stolen from other families!
"I don't want to be friends with anyone from your family!"
Wang Guangping frowned upon hearing this and said, "This Second Lady Wang is truly evil. She keeps saying these nonsense in the village every day, and now, look what she's saying, even a child this young believes it."
Lu Fei quickly explained in a low voice: "Don't blame my sister. It's my uncle who tells me about it every day at home, so my sister remembers it."
It turns out that although Ye Laizi's family was not rich when he was a child, it was still considered middle-class in the village.
But he was a bald man and could never find a wife, so he became more and more self-destructive, refused to work hard to earn money, and lay at home every day relying on his parents for support.
So after his parents passed away one after another, his family became poorer and poorer, and soon became the poorest in the village.
Last year, when the Ye family fled famine outside the Great Wall and had no place to live at first, and could only temporarily live on the open space in the village, Ye Laizi could be said to be the happiest person in the village.
No matter how poor he was, at least he had a house to live in. At least there were people in the village who were poorer than him.
So during that period, Ye Laizi often ran to the open space to watch the old Ye family, and he always smiled from ear to ear.
But later, as the Ye family got back the old house and their lives became more and more prosperous, Ye Laizi's heart gradually began to feel unbalanced.
But the Ye family is large, with four strong laborers, especially the eldest brother Ye, who is a tiger-fighting hero. Ye Laizi didn't dare to provoke them at all and could only bury this imbalance in his heart.
The rumors spread by Wang Erniang a few years ago just fit his shameful thoughts. After he got married, there was finally someone in the family who listened to him, and he would complain about them almost every day.
His wife was not familiar with the villagers, so she just ignored what he said.
Even Ye Laizi himself just finished speaking.
No one expected that Lu Hui actually kept all these words in mind.
So when she saw Qingtian wearing brand new clothes, being loved by her parents, protected by her brothers, and having so many fireworks to set off, she was extremely jealous.
Influenced by Ye Laizi's words, Lu Hui was jealous of Qingtian from the beginning, and gradually felt that these things should have belonged to her, but were all snatched away by Qingtian's family.
In the past two days, everyone in the village has been saying that Ye Qingshan has returned and has become a general.
Ye Laizi started cursing at home again, saying that if his parents had not been the only son and he had been able to join the army, he would definitely be doing much better than Ye Qingshan now.
Lu Hui was young after all, and after listening to him say this every day, she was slowly brainwashed by him.
So when he saw Qingtian just now, he felt so angry that he picked up a piece of mud and threw it at Qingtian.
Looking at such a child, the Ye family members lost their previous indignation for a moment, and looked at her with eyes full of sympathy.
