"Brother, you've been in the mountains for so long, haven't you seen anything?"
All eyes turned to Boss Li; those talking and discussing all looked at him.
"Fourth brother, what are you saying? I was just taking Yi Yi for a stroll in the mountains. It would be great if we didn't run into any wild boars. Why do you make it sound like you're hoping I'll run into one?"
Suspicious glances turned to Li Laosi, after all, they were all aware of the feud between Li Laoda and his brothers.
"Dad, he wants you dead so the house will become theirs."
The child's sweet voice was particularly prominent, and the words she spoke were especially hurtful. Li Laosi's face turned red with anger.
"Brother, I don't have that idea."
“Father, he has it.”
The little boy's face was full of certainty, and the people around him fell silent. They were more willing to believe a baby than an adult; after all, children don't lie. This belief was deeply ingrained.
However, upon realizing what was happening, they looked at Li Yiyi in surprise.
Old Master Li's sickly daughter can talk now, and after a closer look, she's actually quite cute.
"Fourth brother, I never expected you to be so narrow-minded. The house was left to me by my grandparents. I know you are jealous, but you actually want my life for a house."
Li Laoda gave Li Yiyi's little bottom a little tap; Li Laoda looked uncomfortable on the surface, but was secretly amused.
Finally, he wasn't the only one speechless because of his daughter's words.
"Fine, I know you guys don't like me, I'll just stop hanging around you."
Li Laoda left sadly, while Li Laosi was stared at strangely by the people in the production team. He couldn't explain himself, nor could he say anything that seemed appropriate.
After Li Laoda walked away, nothing he said mattered. He gave an awkward laugh, and Li Laosi followed him.
After Li Laoda tricked him again last time, it was difficult for Li Laosi to maintain his composure.
[Dad, aren't I amazing!]
[The ultimate master of finishing off enemies—no one but Li Yiyi can compare.]
"My daughter is so capable; she knows how to help her dad."
Carrying Li Yiyi home, the eldest brother of the Li family began to consider separating from them. If they didn't separate, then he'd let their reputations be ruined—they were already bad to begin with, he was just spreading the truth.
When one side is good and the other is bad, subconsciously people will tend to believe the side with the better reputation when something happens.
His daughter is really capable; she easily reminded him of an idea.
Zhou Wenzhu was genuinely planning to call the police, but unexpectedly, just as she left the cowshed and arrived at the living quarters of the production team,
He was stopped by a group of children, some throwing stones, some throwing things, all sorts of things.
“Kill him! He’s a bad seed who used to exploit us.”
"Bad element, bad element, kill him."
"Get out of our production team! We don't need someone like you in our production team."
"Come on, everyone, let's go and defeat the bad guys!"
...
A jumble of random things flew through the air and were thrown at Zhou Wenzhu. She had never seen anything like it before, and instinctively crouched down, covering her head. A group of children rushed towards her.
Half a day later, the child left, and Zhou Wenzhu was covered in bluish-purple spots all over her body.
She cried silently.
After the Zhou family fell on hard times, Zhou Wenzhu's grandfather took her to the cowshed, a place sparsely populated and generally avoided by people. Coupled with Li Laoda's financial support, Zhou Wenzhu remained proud and arrogant.
Suddenly facing widespread dislike and discrimination due to her former identity, Zhou Wenzhu's dirty little face showed confusion and helplessness.
He's not a bad kid, they are.
Wiping away her tears, Zhou Wenzhu wanted to call the police. She had thought it was just a child acting this way, but it turned out that adults pointed and whispered about him, keeping their distance. Zhou Wenzhu couldn't even find anyone to ask for directions.
In other places, the people in the production team wouldn't go too far. They were simple and honest, and didn't have much of a concept of social status.
The key point is that the Zhou family used to be notorious for being exploitative, forcibly seizing their land, then renting it to them at low prices and demanding exorbitant rents. Anyone who survived knows that the Zhou family hates them.
If they were truly kind-hearted, they wouldn't say anything, nor would they make things difficult for a child.
When Li Laoda helped the Zhou family, he only remembered the old hunter's kindness, occasionally sending them some coarse grains to ensure their survival and help them get through difficult times.
He didn't plan to continue helping them. The generation of Li Laoda's grandparents was still being exploited by the Zhou family, so he wasn't going to be kind to them.
Unable to find anyone to ask for directions, Zhou Wenzhu could only rely on her intuition and wandered into the town in a daze, but not knowing the specific way, she wandered into a small alley.
After returning home, Li Laoda and Li Yiyi started grilling meat right outside the main house, without even glancing at the expressions of the others.
News of what happened on the mountain had spread throughout the production team. The first was that there were wild boars on the mountain; the second was that Li Laosi wanted something to happen to Li Laoda; and the third was that Li Yiyi could talk.
Amidst all the ups and downs, everything the Li family does is under scrutiny. If anything else gets out, Li Laosi's reputation will be ruined.
"Fourth brother, these words really were said by Li Yiyi."
Old Li stood with his hands behind his back, his brows furrowed, seemingly unable to believe that what Li Laosi said was true.
"Father, it's true."
Li Laosi didn't want to believe it either. If Li Yiyi hadn't suddenly spoken up, he wouldn't have been nailed to the nail of shame. His original intention was to make people suspect that Li Laoda had a relationship with the wild boar, but instead, he got himself into trouble.
"This is difficult."
Old Li sat smoking his pipe; clearly, Li Yiyi's ability to speak was something they hadn't expected.
Li Yiyi was a sickly child, just like Li Laoda when he was young. Their thought was that once Li Yiyi was gone, Li Laoda would lose all hope.
Knowing she had no heir, she knew she would have to appease them and return to her former life to ensure her old age. But Li Yiyi's sudden outburst suggested that she wasn't as likely to die at any moment.
[You're all one big family, scheming and cunning. Don't worry, I, Li Yiyi, will definitely outlive you all.]
You want me to die sooner? No way!
Seeing the disgusting scene with her divine sense, Li Yiyi almost vomited. How could Old Man Li and Old Woman Li have been so quiet since she was born?
They were all waiting for her to die. She's ugly, but she had such high hopes.
"Mom, eat."
She was cursing in her heart, but her mouth was drooling with hunger. This extreme reversal of emotions made Jiang Yuting completely devoted to Li Yiyi.
"Dad, I want to eat meat."
A harsh, unruly voice rang out. Turning around, one saw Li Laosan's family of five; the speaker was Li Fuyi.
[My God, did Wang Yiting empty the entire Wang family home? It's completely covered in clothes, front and back. Doesn't the Wang family's daughter-in-law have any objections?]
Eat, eat, eat! If you want meat, go find your own dad. Don't look at what I have.
With her head stretched forward and mouth open, the meat in Jiang Yuting's hand went into Li Yiyi's mouth.
"Mom, the meat is so delicious."
She squinted her eyes in enjoyment, as if she were eating some rare delicacy; with a "gulp," she seemed to hear herself swallowing.
Upon opening her eyes wide, she saw it belonged to the Li family head, and Li Fuyi's eyes blazed with jealousy.
