Qin Wan didn't give her mother any face. She held her mother's hand, then threw it aside and said:
"You're so old, I don't believe you can't even see through Qin Ruanruan's little tricks! Am I your biological daughter?"
Qin's father also came home from get off work at this time. He heard the commotion upstairs and scolded:
"Can't you just talk it out calmly? What's the point of making so much noise? Get down here!"
Qin Huai is a retired soldier and is now the workshop director. He doesn't talk much, but when he does, he speaks with authority.
He had also heard everyone's discussions on the way and was very angry at Qin Ruanruan's outspokenness. This time, he let Qin Ruanruan's little tricks go unchecked, thinking that she was just making a small fuss and that with a little guidance, everything would fall into place as he had imagined.
Unexpectedly, everything turned out to be far beyond his expectations. It seemed that he had to inquire about the situation carefully and then reconsider the matter.
Hearing Qin Huai's words, Qin's mother, Qin Ruanruan, and Qin Wan filed downstairs. Qin Jing also came out of her room.
Everyone came to the living room and sat down.
Qin Huaixian asked Qin Ruanruan: "Tell me what happened?"
Qin Ruanruan's eyes were filled with tears: "Dad, I don't know what happened. When my second sister came back, I tried to persuade her with good intentions, but she slapped me hard! When my mother came back, she asked me to go upstairs and call her, and she slapped me hard again."
As he spoke, he stretched his head forward and raised his face so that Qinghua could have a closer look.
Qin Huai glanced at Qin Ruanruan without leaving any trace, his eyes darkened, and the look he gave Qin Wan became sharper:
"Xiao Wan, why did you hit your sister?"
Qin Wan keenly caught the look in Qin Huai's eyes when he looked at Qin Ruanruan. She was very interested, but now was not the time to talk about this. After hearing Qin Huai's question, she repeated what Qin Ruanruan had said, and then asked him:
"She said that to me, shouldn't I hit her? Never mind that I wasn't hurt. Even if I was, as my own sister, she didn't stand up for me. Instead, she gossiped about me, letting others point fingers at me and poke at my spine. She has no sense of proportion and no family affection. Who else should I hit if not her?"
"Second sister, I just wanted to advise you kindly, I didn't think so much!" Qin Runrun looked aggrieved.
"You're trying to persuade me out of kindness? You're so nice. If you were really kind, you wouldn't tell this one that I was raped by a gangster so early in the morning, and tell that one that I didn't come back all night and that losing my innocence is nothing. Bullshit?" Qin Wan stared at Qin Runrun and said angrily.
Qin Huai was also very annoyed by Qin Ruanruan's careless talk, but when he saw Qin Ruanruan's tearful face, his heart softened. He sighed secretly, thinking that she was young and didn't consider things carefully. But in the end, he couldn't bear to say anything more.
However, his eldest daughter's behavior was somewhat beyond his expectations. He calmed himself down and asked:
"Tell me in detail what happened last night."
Qin Wan then recounted the entire story, but instinctively concealed the fact that she had drawn a picture of the gangsters for the police station. Otherwise, what if the news leaked out and the two gangsters escaped early?
Qin Huai actually noticed some of Qin Runrun's little movements, and thought about the harm his eldest daughter might suffer, but he didn't expect her to call the police. He wanted to scold Qin Wan, but seeing his eldest daughter's unusually tough attitude, he gave up the idea.
He said to Qin Wan calmly: "No matter what, she is your sister. Even if she did something wrong, you shouldn't hit her like this."
Mother Qin also said: "We are all family, and she is doing this for your own good. How could you be so harsh?"
Qin Wan laughed twice and said nothing, but the irony was very obvious. Is this because Qin Ruanruan can set a fire, but she can't even light a lamp? Unfortunately, there is no such good thing for her!
Qin Jing's mind was still in a mess. He could only feel the voices of discussion outside buzzing in his head.
He always felt that something was wrong with this matter, but he couldn't put his finger on why.
"Okay, let's end this matter here. Ruanruan, you should be more careful with your words in the future. Don't say anything nonsense. Xiaowan, you should also stop hitting people at every turn. You are a girl, and you are shouting and yelling about fighting and killing all day long. How can you still act like a girl?"
Qin Huai gave each of them fifty lashes of the cane, putting an end to the matter.
Qin Wan didn't know what to think, but she knew she was full of dissatisfaction. She lowered her eyes and thought to herself: If anyone dared to talk nonsense in front of her, her fists would not be vegetarian.
After finishing the matter, Qin's mother said to Qin Wan:
"Xiao Wan, it's getting late. Go make some food quickly so your dad won't be late for work."
Qin Wan wanted to laugh twice after hearing this. She had been hurt so badly, but her parents didn't care at all. Now that she had to cook, they ordered her around very smoothly!
She wanted to turn around and go upstairs, but suddenly she felt hungry, so she compromised and turned to the kitchen.
She had experienced the end of the world and knew that the sign before certain superpowers emerged was hunger, as if one could never be full and always wanted to replenish energy. She didn't know if her hunger was a prelude to the return of her superpowers.
She came to the kitchen and found that there were a lot of ingredients inside, including two handfuls of tender green vegetables, a few red tomatoes, some green onions, and two purple eggplants.
There were two cloth bags in the corner of the kitchen, one filled with cornmeal and the other filled with sorghum flour.
Various seasonings are also placed, including salt, sugar, soy sauce, vinegar, cooking wine, etc.
