The brigade leader angrily went to the field to find Huo Changlan.
Huo Changlan thought something had happened. Looking at her angry older brother, she felt a little scared.
"Big brother, what's wrong?"
The captain glared angrily and shouted, "You still have the nerve to ask what happened? Why don't you go ask your well-bred daughter what kind of trash she is!"
Huo Changlan found her elder brother's cursing extremely offensive!
I didn't even know what had happened before I was scolded.
"Brother, why are you yelling at me? What happened to my daughter?"
The captain pointed at her nose and yelled, "You still dare to talk back? Yao Qingqing actually hit Ningning! Ningning is pregnant now, and she actually dared to lay a hand on her!"
Huo Changlan breathed a sigh of relief, thinking it was something serious.
Qingqing kicked her once, but there wasn't even a mark.
Is this what you call being hit?
"Big brother, why don't you ask why? Look at Qingqing's face, every time it's that bitch Yun Ningyan... her Qingqing."
The words of abuse that were about to come out of her mouth stopped abruptly.
She glanced at her older brother with a hint of fear, but thankfully his mind was on Yun Ningyan.
They didn't notice her faults.
She beckoned Yao Qingqing over.
Huo Changlan asked, "Qingqing, tell your uncle about being beaten."
Upon hearing this, Yao Qingqing immediately changed her tune and cried, "Uncle, look! Yun Ningyan beat me up!"
“You should teach Yun Ningyan a lesson. She went too far. I only said two words to her, and she beat me up like this.”
The captain looked at Yao Qingqing's face, ignoring it, and asked in a cold voice, "I'm asking you, did you hit Ningning?"
"You kicked her, didn't you? Don't you know she's pregnant with the Huo family's child?"
His voice was cold, devoid of any warmth.
He just waited indifferently for Yao Qingqing to answer.
Huo Changlan never expected his older brother to be so muddle-headed. Qingqing's face was swollen, and he didn't even see it!
She glared angrily at the captain: "Brother, Qingqing's face is all swollen, can't you see?"
The captain was getting a little annoyed, so he asked again.
"Qingqing, did you hit Ningning?"
Yao Qingqing couldn't help but nod: "I did kick her, but she hit me even harder."
The captain angrily raised his hand and slapped Huo Changlan across the face.
"How did you raise your child? Ningning was pregnant, how could she do that?"
Huo Changlan was dizzy from the slap; she hadn't expected her older brother to slap her without saying a word.
This heart has become completely biased.
"Big brother! How could you hit me?"
The captain sneered, "I'm being lenient by hitting you!"
"Yao Qingqing blocked the road and snatched the food that Ningning was giving to Lao San. She tried to take everything away. Look at the kind of bastard you're raising!"
"How is this any different from those robbers? Do you still think your daughter is a good child?"
"I think you're a complete failure! You don't understand anything at all!"
Huo Changlan only knew that Qingqing and Yun Ningyan had an unpleasant encounter today, but he didn't know exactly what happened.
Her mind was entirely focused on the man with a job that Qingqing had mentioned when she came back; she was determined to find a good husband for her daughter.
But after hearing these words, she thought, "It's just a small argument, is it really worth my brother beating me in public like that?" Anyway, it's more than that.
Huo Changlan dismissed it: "Nothing happened at all?"
The captain pointed his finger at her nose: "You still dare to say that? By then, it will be too late!"
He gave Yao Qing a cold look before leaving: "Hurry up and marry her off. All you ever do is cause trouble!"
This is so annoying!
He walked away with his hands behind his back, smoking his pipe.
Huo Changlan was furious. All she knew was that Qingqing had hit Yun Ningyan.
But I don't know why.
Now that she's heard what her older brother said, she roughly understands what's going on.
She breathed a sigh of relief as she watched her older brother walk away.
Pointing at Yao Qingqing's forehead, she scolded her angrily with disappointment: "Why do you always provoke her? You are no match for her at all. Stay away from her in the future."
Yao Qingqing nodded heavily, her head drooping: "Mom, I understand. I'll never provoke her again!"
Seeing that Huo Changlan's expression remained serious, she had no choice but to resort to her trump card.
She pointed pitifully to her swollen cheek and whispered, "Mother, look at my face! That bitch beat it so badly!"
Huo Changlan sighed helplessly: "Qingqing, why don't you let your two aunts find you a partner? Maybe you'll mature once you're married!"
Yao Qingqing's eyes lit up: "Mom, my third brother's friend has a job in the county town and earns more than twenty yuan a month. Mom, I want to marry him."
Huo Changlan sighed again!
The third brother definitely won't help with this.
She nodded without saying anything, then bent down and started working.
Meanwhile, the people working in the fields already knew that the brigade leader had just beaten Huo Changlan.
As for what was said, no one could hear it clearly.
Even those closest to them couldn't hear what they were saying.
When the news reached Li Xiangyun, she felt relieved but didn't know why her older brother had hit Huo Changlan.
I guess Huo Changlan did something annoying again?
Time flies by in the blink of an eye.
The wheat harvest was nearing its end, and Huo Junshan went back to the fields to cut wheat after that day.
More than ten days have passed, and the once boundless golden wheat fields have gradually disappeared.
The women in the fields have already started gleaning the wheat.
