After returning to the village, the group split into two groups.
The men carried tea leaves to the teahouse, while the women carried things and walked towards home.
Liu Zhaodi walked quickly and disappeared in a short while.
Ding Xiujing was going to pick vegetables, but halfway through she took another fork in the road.
Xu Jiaojiao was left alone, walking home by herself, but she was stopped by someone before she reached home.
"Qin Shuo's wife."
The person who stopped her was Liu Chunli, and she was holding a basket in her hand.
When Xu Jiaojiao saw this scene, she had a bad feeling.
really--
"Here are some eggs. Thank you for saving me today, Yaya."
Liu Chunli's eyes were still a little red. As she spoke, she handed the egg in her hand over.
"No, take it back and nourish yourself."
How could Xu Jiaojiao be willing to take her eggs?
I had already heard a lot of gossip about Liu Chunli in the fields during the day.
She had a miserable life. She married a man in the team who was the only son in three generations, and ended up giving birth to three daughters.
The mother-in-law was also very capable and just threw two away.
It’s hard enough to feed your own children these days, so who would want to raise someone else’s?
The fate of those who were thrown away can be imagined.
Liu Chunli cried so much that her eyes were almost blinded, but was there anything she could do?
That person is just a scoundrel, even the Women's Federation can't do anything to her.
After much difficulty giving birth to twins, a boy and a girl, she suffered from severe bleeding and almost died.
The babies she carried to work in the fields today were twin girls, a boy and a girl.
"Qin Shuo's wife, just take it. Without you, my Yaya..."
As she spoke, Liu Chunli looked frightened and patted her daughter who was on her back.
It was her fault that she was useless and failed to protect her two daughters.
If she didn't even have this, she wouldn't know how to live.
"You're such a jerk! Giving away my son's eggs?"
Suddenly, a roar came from the front.
Xu Jiaojiao turned her head and saw a tall and thin middle-aged woman rushing towards her with a fierce look on her face.
When she saw it was her mother-in-law, Liu Chunli's face changed and she couldn't help shaking.
When Huang Guihong was making dinner, she was about to boil an egg for her son, but who knew that even the egg basket was missing.
Thinking about what she heard in the afternoon, that someone had rescued the girl, Huang Guihong guessed that she had given the girl away.
Then he rushed over and happened to see her stuffing eggs into someone's mouth.
“This is a gift from my parents…”
Although Liu Chunli looked frightened, she still chose to fight.
"What do you mean your mother's family or not? You are also from our Wang family! Are you so bold? How dare you give away eggs from your home?"
"She saved my Yaya, I can't not repay this kindness."
"She's just a little girl, so if she dies, she dies." Huang Guihong disagreed.
It would be better if this little girl didn't exist, so she wouldn't have to compete with her grandson for milk.
As he said this, he was about to step forward to grab the eggs back.
But Liu Chunli seemed to be determined. She dodged flexibly with the egg in her hand and Huang Guihong missed the opportunity.
She was so angry that her eyes turned red. She stretched out her hand and slapped the girl behind her viciously.
How could a baby who was not even a month old withstand such a blow from her?
Liu Chunli couldn't dodge in time. Seeing that the hand like a palm-leaf fan was about to hit her, her eyes were immediately red with anger.
“Don’t hit me!”
As soon as she finished speaking, another miserable howl was heard.
The expected slap did not fall, instead Huang Guihong held one hand and jumped and howled.
"Someone come, someone is going to beat the kid to death!"
Xu Jiaojiao withdrew her hand and shouted at the top of her voice.
"You whore! You were the one who stabbed me just now!" Huang Guihong was furious.
He rushed forward, stretched out his hand and tried to push the woman down viciously.
Xu Jiaojiao didn't dodge either. She clenched the silver needle between her fingers, ready to hit her again.
But before she could stab it, a big hand grabbed her wrist.
The next moment, she was pulled to a tall figure.
It’s Qin Shuo!
Huang Guihong pushed in vain and used too much force, almost falling to the ground.
She had never suffered such a big loss before, and her eyes turned red with anger.
He turned around and was about to rush forward again, but was met with a pair of extremely cold eyes.
"Beat the baby, you are already suspected of intentional injury!"
Xu Jiaojiao heard Qin Shuo say this seriously. Free
"Bullshit! How can I break the law by beating my own granddaughter?"
Huang Guihong didn't believe this. Even if her granddaughter was beaten to death, it was her own family matter.
The onlookers also couldn't believe it. How could beating one's own child be against the law?
"Your granddaughters are not your private property. You can't beat them whenever you want! In addition, I will report your suspected abandonment of two granddaughters and their deaths to the public security bureau."
When Huang Guihong heard that the police had been notified, she was really scared.
But he still said something in a defiant tone.
"You, don't scare me. I wasn't brought up to be scared."
"Then give it a try."
Qin Shuo was originally a military man, and just by standing there, he exuded an indescribable aura.
Huang Guihong immediately became timid when she saw his serious face.
He cursed rudely, but his feet seemed to be greased and he disappeared in a moment.
Seeing the evil woman running away, the onlookers all applauded.
Xu Jiaojiao looked at Qin Shuo with admiration, "You still have a way."
If she had known it would be so easy to scare him away, she wouldn't have bothered.
Xu Jiaojiao silently put the silver needle back into the system.
These were the self-defense gear she had discussed with Tongzi. Some of them had been soaked in medicine, and some had not.
What she held between her fingers was the one that had not been soaked.
However, her praise did not elicit a response from Qin Shuo. Instead, she heard Liu Chunli's panicked voice.
"You can't report to the police!"
If she reports to the police, she won't be able to live like this anymore and the man will beat her to death.
Xu Jiaojiao: ...
Well, I finally know how those two kids disappeared.
With such a cowardly mother and such a vicious grandmother, it would be a miracle if he could grow up alive.
But this is her choice, and Xu Jiaojiao doesn't want to interfere in other people's affairs.
He nodded and turned to leave.
But the next moment, he was blocked by someone again.
"Take this egg back!"
Xu Jiaojiao: ...
"No need, keep it for yourself." Xu Jiaojiao didn't want to take her food in the first place.
After something like this happened, it’s even more impossible to accept it.
After a lot of back and forth, the two of them finally managed to push the basket of eggs away.
Xu Jiaojiao runs very fast!
Behind him, Qin Shuo's brows were almost twisted into a knot.
The two returned home one after the other, and the yard was still bustling with activity.
The sounds of children fighting and adults scolding were filled with the smell of fireworks.
"Are you back? Hurry up and wash your hands and eat!"
Wang Fengmei wiped her hands on her apron and greeted him. He turned around and cursed at his grandson next to him.
"You just act naughty everyday, it's better to bleed! Otherwise you won't know fear!"
Only then did Xu Jiaojiao see that the five or six-year-old child had blood all over his knees.
You can tell at a glance where the scratch is.
He didn't dare to say a word even when scolded by adults, and looked depressed.
How can a child not bump into things? Wang Fengmei didn't take it to heart.
He reached out and felt under the eaves.
After a while, he took out some spider webs mixed with roof ash and applied them directly on the child's wound.
Xu Jiaojiao: ...
