Cao Xing's parents and eldest brother were all illiterate, so the second grandfather had his eldest son read to them.
The gist of the matter is that Cao Xing committed adultery during her marriage, and today she is dissolving the marriage and demanding the return of the bride price and a year's salary, totaling 300 yuan. If she does not return the money, the police will be notified that Cao Xing's family committed marriage fraud, drugged her, and swindled her money.
Cao Xing's father didn't want to put his fingerprint on the document, but he had no choice. Thinking of his son and grandson, he gritted his teeth and put his fingerprint on the document. That brat had caused trouble. Once this was over, he would sell her to the mountains. It just so happened that someone was inquiring about the practice of sharing a wife. The bride price was a hundred yuan.
Thinking about the two hundred yuan he had lost for nothing, Cao Xing's father was extremely distressed. He absolutely did not care how much money Cao Xing brought home; he only cared about how much money he had to pay out of his own pocket.
Holding the paper with his fingerprints, the second grandfather left with his family. The scene of defilement was disgusting. Luckily, they hadn't gotten a marriage certificate in their haste to get married, otherwise they would have been in for a lot of trouble.
Second Grandma, accompanied by a group of women, spat at Cao Xing before leaving. "What kind of person is she? If you didn't agree in the first place, you should have said so. Instead, you've brought trouble to their family."
"Grandpa and the others are back. Let's hurry back too."
Qian Xiao quickly turned around and covered the dog's mouth. Was this dog an idiot? Going down now would only let their family find them, and Qing would be in for a scolding.
The dog quickly shut up and dared not make a sound. The two carefully hid themselves and waited until the whole family had passed under the tree before Qian Xiao let go of the dog's hand. He even wiped his hand on his clothes, getting his hand covered in saliva. Ugh, so dirty.
Qian Xiao looked back at the spot and saw Cao Xing's older brother punching and kicking the man named Xiangzi, probably because he was upset about losing three hundred yuan.
Serves them right. It's all because this family is too greedy. Cao Xing probably took all that money back to her parents' home, and maybe a small portion ended up in Xiangzi's pocket. As for Cao Xing's fate, it certainly won't be good. These things are quite shameful at this time.
After his family members had gone far away, Qian Xiaocai climbed down from the tree with his dog and headed towards the village.
"When are you going back?" Afraid that Gouzi would ask about what had just happened, Qian Xiao quickly changed the subject.
"Why go back? I want to stay in the village." The city isn't as good as the village; you can only play around in front of your house all day.
"What will you do when you go to school?"
"I'll go with you, we can keep each other company." He didn't want to go to school at all.
"Are you stupid? It's so much better to study in the city. It's not far from home. Coming back to school means walking such a long way every day." Besides, the quality of education in the city is definitely better than here, right?
The dog scratched its head: "It seems that's really the case. We'll see when the time comes. Why do we have to go to school?"
Qian Xiao... I don't want to go either, but can I tell you this?
"Erdan, rabbit, rabbit!" The little dog, with its sharp eyes, started shouting loudly.
A gray rabbit, perhaps having spotted a person, jumped up in a panic, trying to escape. Qian Xiao instinctively raised his leg and kicked it, sending the rabbit crashing to the ground with a thud.
Wow, when did she become so accurate? She actually hit the rabbit!
The dog was overjoyed and quickly ran over to pick up the rabbit that Qian Xiao had kicked unconscious: "My goodness, Erdan, when did you become so amazing! We used to have to work so hard to catch rabbits."
Would you believe me if I said it was a coincidence? I doubt this guy would. She's always been successful in building her reputation, and her dog is her number one fanboy.
"Why so much nonsense? Hurry up and take the rabbit down the mountain. We'll have dinner at my house today." Even if she didn't say anything, her grandparents would have invited the dog to stay for dinner.
"Great, great! I haven't eaten meat since Chinese New Year. I can still remember the taste of that meat. It was so delicious."
Qian rolled her eyes, as if she could eat meat every day: "Let me tell you, if your third grandmother asks where we got the rabbit, just say we went to the north, don't let it slip."
Gouzi nodded. He never objected to anything Qian Xiao said: "I know, I know. We can't say we've been here today. Don't worry, Erdan, I'm very smart."
"Could you please stop calling me by my nickname? You're supposed to be smart, but I've told you so many times, my name is Qian Xiao, just call me Qian Xiao."
"Oh, why are you being so polite? You still call me Gouzi, so why can't I call you Erdan?"
Is this a matter of being polite or not? Is it any good that a girl is called Erdan?
"Anyway, you can't call me by my nickname anymore, you can only call me by my full name, Qian Xiao, understand?" He even gestured with his little fist as he spoke.
Erdan took a step back: "I, I, I remember, but if I accidentally call you by the wrong name, you can't hit me."
"Pshaw, what a loser."
Gouzi and Qian Xiao were born around the same time and were often put together to watch over each other when they were little. Gouzi was always getting into trouble and would often hit people for no reason. You could say that Gouzi was beaten up by Qian Xiao from a young age. Every time Gouzi got into trouble, Qian Xiao would teach him a lesson.
When two little kids fight, adults don't interfere; they just watch and laugh. At that point, it comes down to who has the stronger fist, and obviously, Qian Xiao is the one with the stronger fist.
Sure enough, when he brought the rabbit home, his grandparents invited him to stay for dinner. After all, Qian Xiao had eaten at his great-grandfather's house quite often since he was a child.
The dog stared wide-eyed at Qian, who was already eating his fourth bowl of rice, and said, "Er Dan."
Qian Xiao raised her little fist, and Gouzi quickly changed his tune: "Qian Xiao, when did you become such a big eater? We haven't seen each other for only a few months, how come you've suddenly become such a big eater?!" Can Third Grandma still afford to feed you?
Of course, the kid didn't dare say the last sentence out loud, otherwise Erdan would definitely beat him up. It would be too embarrassing to say it out loud. He had never won a fight between the two of them since they were little. The reason he was so afraid of Erdan was because she had beaten him so badly.
“I’ve always been such a big eater. I used to do it to save food, but now that I can work in the fields, how can I have the energy to work if I don’t eat my fill?”
"Nonsense, spring plowing hasn't even started yet, how did you get into the field?"
That little kid is so annoying: "I never said I'd been to the fields. I'm just making preparations. I'll go to the fields in a couple of days."
"Okay, then I'll go to the fields with you. I'm very strong, and I'll definitely be able to do a good job in the fields."
Qian rolled her eyes. Neither of them had ever worked in the fields, so what were they pretending for? No, wait, she had secretly worked in the fields and even grew crops, so she was definitely much better than Gouzi.
Upon hearing this, the old lady quickly stopped them: "There are so many adults in the family, why do you need to work in the fields? You can go play wherever you want, the family doesn't need you."
"Grandma, please let me try."
