Chapter 239 Uncontrollable Emotions
Although Qin's mother was struck by lightning, she was not in mortal danger. She stayed in bed for a week before Qin Yunzhi took her back to the rented house outside.
The experience of being struck by lightning was unpleasant for Qin's mother, and the aftereffects were severe. She lay in bed all day, groaning and in pain all over.
As time went on, Qin Yunzhi grew tired of taking care of the person and eventually handed him over to Sister Qin.
Sister Qin was sincere, but that didn't stop her mother from cursing at her every day, and Sister Qin's daughter couldn't escape being cursed as well.
"What's the point of keeping you around? You're asking me to pour you a glass of lukewarm water? Is this lukewarm water?! You're trying to scald me to death!"
"I'm sorry, Mom, I'll go change right away."
"What's the point of changing it? It's completely useless!"
Sister Qin didn't say a word and quickly ran to change the water, which made Qin's mother even angrier.
A bunch of useless things, born to collect debts!
And then there were the injuries on her body. Thinking of all this, Qin's mother's face turned even uglier.
"That Lin Xiaotao said she was coming to see me!" Her voice was shrill, completely lacking the kind and gentle tone she had shown at the school gate.
Sister Qin lowered her head and brought the water to her mother's lips: "I've never heard my brother mention it."
"Just what is Lin Xiaotao's background?!"
"I have no idea."
"You don't know! You don't know anything!"
"Mom, I'm sorry, I'll definitely ask when my brother comes back."
"Your brother isn't busy? Why would you bother him with something like this?!"
"Then I'll go ask now, I'll go ask."
“Get back here!”
"mom……"
"Who will take care of me if you leave! That little brat of yours? What is she anyway? What can she possibly take care of me!"
"Then, I'll let my daughter go."
"Go now!"
"Yes, yes, Mom, don't be angry." Sister Qin quickly told her daughter to go to Peking University to inquire. Little Sister Qin was also scared and quickly ran out.
Whether they knew the way or not, or anything else, was not a concern for Qin's mother and eldest sister.
In any case, the Qin family was in complete chaos.
Although it was difficult, Qin Xiaomei finally made it to the gate of Peking University. However, she was not a student and could not enter. Moreover, she did not dare to talk to anyone. So, in the end, Qin Xiaomei just stared at the gate and watched as it got darker and darker before she slowly moved back.
The poised and graceful demeanor I had when I first met Xiaotaohua is no longer present.
If it weren't for her family, she wouldn't have dared to say those things. Now that she's all alone, she doesn't even dare to talk to anyone.
So, when Qin Xiaomei got back, she was scolded again.
This happens often; everyone's used to it.
Qin's mother is so domineering and unreasonable that, to be honest, her daughters are all under her thumb, and even her daughters' daughters dare not disobey her.
In the countryside, people bully the weak and fear the strong; even the son-in-law didn't want to argue with Qin's mother.
After all, Qin's mother now has a son who is studying at Peking University.
As Qin's mother's pride, Qin Yunzhi went to find Xiao Taohua again after a week. Unfortunately, Xiao Taohua didn't have time. Of course, this was said by Li Zhen. Then, Li Zhen pulled him to a secluded alley.
"What do you want to do!" Looking at Li Zhen, Song Yi, and Lin Xiaoguang in front of him, Qin Yunzhi kept backing away.
"Qin Yunzhi, didn't we tell you to stay away from Lin Xiaotao?" Li Zhen snapped his fingers, looking at him with an unfriendly expression. Although they had heard Xiaotao mention wanting to study Qin Yunzhi, this patient, they knew he had ulterior motives, and Li Zhen and the others would never let Qin Yunzhi get close to Xiaotao again.
"Aren't you being a bit too nosy? He's not Lin Xiaotao's biological brother." Qin Yunzhi took a step back.
"Not a blood brother, but better than a blood brother. Don't think we don't know what your purpose is."
"You're joking. I didn't have any ulterior motives; I just couldn't help myself."
"Couldn't help it? Do you think we'd believe that?"
"You're being prejudiced against me."
"Really? I don't think so. And, Qin Yunzhi, there's something I forgot to mention. Um, you should know this: I heard you have a fiancée back in your hometown?"
Qin Yunzhi's expression changed.
Before he could speak, Li Zhen continued, "I heard she was a child bride?"
"A child bride, we grew up together, that's a good thing," Song Yi said with a smile.
“It’s pretty good,” Lin Xiaoguang also said.
"You've misunderstood." Qin Yunzhi said stiffly.
"There's no misunderstanding. Besides, I even sent someone to your hometown to inquire. Your parents, the ones who were your child bride, saved your life back then. What? You want to be ungrateful? I also asked around, and it seems your older sister and brother-in-law have a pretty good relationship. So, what about those things they said at the school gate before..."
"I have something to do, I'm leaving now." This time, Qin Yunzhi didn't dare to say anything more and practically fled in panic.
"Why are you running?" Li Zhen shouted.
Qin Yunzhi didn't even turn his head.
After all, he never expected that his background would be thoroughly investigated, and staying would only bring him humiliation.
"Pah, he got off too easy," Song Yi spat.
Thinking about what he had found out, Song Yi was furious. He really didn't know where Qin Yunzhi got the nerve to approach Xiao Taohua.
Not only did he have a child bride, but she was also the daughter of his savior. Her parents died because of saving her, and she was bullied terribly while growing up in Qin Yunzhi's house.
Song Yike still remembered what those people said about the child bride being beaten and scolded every day, and that the other party did all the housework while Qin Yunzhi just read books.
What else could such a person be but an ingrate!
Anyway, he is not a good person.
As for taking a liking to Xiao Taohua?
Li Zhen and his group didn't believe in liking or disliking; they were probably just after their little peach blossom's wealth.
No matter what, when her little peach blossom came over, she would go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things every day, always with big bags and small bags. It was not surprising that she was being watched. However, Qin Yunzhi was definitely the most shameless and the most outstanding among them, because no one was as scheming as him, and also as confident.
"Let's go. Qin Yunzhi is easy to deal with, but Cheng Zhen is not so easy." Li Zhen waved his hand.
"What is this? Everyone says they like it, but I don't see what they like about it," Song Yi muttered.
"A bunch of self-righteous fools, who knows what they're thinking?" Li Zhen snorted.
Whether it's Qin Yunzhi or Cheng Zhen, in Li Zhen's eyes they are the same—neither of them are good people.
Qin Yunzhi fled in panic, and on the way he ran into Cheng Zhen.
Rivals are bound to be hostile when they meet, but Qin Yunzhi didn't dare to get any closer to Lin Xiaotao, so he pretended not to see her and was about to leave.
"Why are you running? Are you being chased by a ghost or have you done something wrong?" Peng Li stopped the man directly.
"Peng Li, classmate." Qin Yunzhi forced a smile.
"Who said you're my classmate? Oh, what happened to you? You look so pale."
"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
"Don't go, I still need to talk to you."
Something really happened.
Even if something really happens, it won't work. I need to talk to you about something.
Qin Yunzhi wanted to leave but couldn't, so he could only stand there.
