Chapter 555: Escape Back to Her Mother's Home

"What? This is Fubao's carriage. Xing'er's leg is broken and she can't walk. Fubao asked the servants to take us back. Shitou, you go back first. I can walk back to the village by myself later."

After her niece was lifted up, Wang Xiuqin immediately spoke to Pan Shitou.

She planned to give some instructions to her elder brother and sister-in-law, and have a meal at her parents' home.

How can I let someone wait at the door?

Isn't this just being aggressive?

"Okay, then I'll go back first." Pan Shitou nodded, turned the carriage in another direction and left the village.

"What's going on?" Wang Xiuqin was sitting beside her niece's bed, and her eldest brother Wang Mao asked immediately.

"Xing'er's legs grew crooked, so Fubao broke them and reattached them. Big brother, you can't let Xing'er work anymore, you know? Let her take good care of herself and heal her legs. She's already eighteen, and it's a pity that such a beautiful girl has become lame. I know you're anxious, and so is your sister-in-law, but there's no rush. Here, I bought some spare ribs, you can make soup with them and let Xing'er drink it. Fubao said that this bone soup is good for her health, you should buy some from time to time to nourish her body..."

After giving instructions for a long time, he ate a bowl of thick noodles made by his sister-in-law.

Wang Xiuqin got up and went home.

"Did you hear me? If there is work to do at home, let the two daughters-in-law do it. If it really doesn't work, you can do it yourself. Don't call her Xing'er anymore. If her legs don't grow properly, she will still be a cripple and won't be able to get married. It's embarrassing for you and me."

Wang Mao put his hands behind his back, finished talking to Li, and took his two sons to the fields to tend to the crops.

Wang Xing'er was still sleeping on the bed.

Her legs were tied tightly, but it was not difficult to see that this leg was straighter.

It no longer bends in the weird way it used to.

The sun sets quickly.

The temperature at night is cooler than during the day.

From time to time, the howling of wolves and the croaking of frogs could be heard from the mountains.

At this hour, almost everyone was asleep except the officers guarding the city gates and the night watchmen.

On the country road, a figure was running stealthily towards Sunjia Village.

After being married into the Zhou family for so long, there is still no news about Sun Xiaotao's pregnancy.

Life was pretty good at first. I could eat my fill and work hard every day, but it wasn't too tiring.

But as the days go by.

Sun Xiaotao, whose pulse had been checked no less than ten times, gradually became anxious.

The Zhou family's attitude towards her became worse and worse.

She now wakes up earlier than a chicken and sleeps later than a dog. She cannot sit still during meals and must serve Zhou Ruixiang well and wait until he finishes eating before she can eat.

However, her in-laws seemed to be targeting her on purpose.

Every time you cook, make just the right amount.

So much so that when it was her turn to eat, there was basically nothing left.

After scraping here and there, I finally scraped off a few mouthfuls of brown rice, soaked it in vegetable soup, and ate it together.

With only two meals a day, Sun Xiaotao's stomach ached at night from hunger, and the weight she had gained from working for Gao Caijin was quickly wasted.

When people become thin, they tend to look older.

Sun Xiaotao's appearance is no longer the same as before.

Today, after being beaten up by Zhou Ruixiang, she quietly ran away in the night with a bruised face.

She ran to her mother's house and knocked on the door. The youngest daughter, Wang, who was sleeping soundly, opened the door while wearing clothes.

"Why did you come back so late at night?" Seeing her daughter, Wang Yaonu frowned. She stood at the door and did not let Sun Xiaotao in.

As for the injuries on her daughter's face, she didn't care at all.

"Mom, please let me in. I can't stay in the Zhou family any longer. Please find me someone who is similar to Mr. Gao. I will just run away and not bring trouble to my family."

Sun Xiaotao spoke anxiously, looking behind her from time to time.

She was afraid that the Zhou family would find out that she had run away and chase after her.

"Look at your current state. Which rich man would be interested in you? Isn't the family your mother found for you good enough? How is the Zhou family's life so bad? As long as you can have a baby, you will have no worries about not having a good life. What's wrong? Are you still not pregnant?"

Wang Yaonu curled her lips and looked at her daughter's belly.

"I can't get pregnant. This idiot must be useless. His brain and his offspring must be damaged. Mom, I was beaten by him today. I really can't stand it anymore. I am living a worse life than when I was married to Jiang Zhuzi. If you don't help me find someone else, I will go back to find Jiang Zhuzi."

Sun Xiaotao made a move to leave.

Wang Yaonu's eyes rolled and she immediately grabbed her.

"I can help you find another one, but you should go hide at Qiao'er's house for a few days. The Zhou family will definitely come looking for you tomorrow. Your father and brother can't stop them. Your house will be searched. Then I will deny that you have never been back. When the storm is over, I will find you a home right away."

If you can earn the betrothal money again, why not do it?

Although my daughter's household registration is in Zhou's family.

But there are also people who don't mind this. They just want a wife, and the worst that can happen is that they ask for less betrothal money.

Think about it this way.

Wang Yaonu changed her mind instantly.

As for the Qiao'er she was talking about, she was also from Sunjia Village, her name was Sun Qiao'er. Her sister got along very well with Sun Xiaotao before she got married. The two sisters have no brothers, and their biological father also passed away a few years ago. The mother and daughter depend on each other for survival.

So it’s no big deal for my daughter to stay with me for a few days.

"It's not good to disturb you so late, how about I go in the morning?"

"Are you stupid? Won't the villagers see it tomorrow morning? If they tell the Zhou family, how will mother explain it? Now that no one is around, go knock on the door and talk to Qiao'er. She and her mother are both quiet people, so they will definitely keep it a secret."

Wang Yaonu tried her best to persuade her daughter to leave.

Sun Xiaotao moved into Sun Qiaoer's home.

Share a bed with her.

The next day, before dawn, Old Wang, who wanted to call her grandson Xiaotao to get up and do some work, carefully pushed open the door of her grandson's room and saw at a glance that there was one person missing from the bed.

She thought Sun Xiaotao went to the toilet.

Just wait in the yard.

As a result, after waiting for a long time, Sun Xiaotao never came out of the toilet in the backyard.

"Mom, wasn't the gate locked last night? Why was the door open? Did you open it? Are you going out?" At this moment, Old Wang's eldest daughter-in-law, Sun Xiaotao's mother-in-law, stood at the gate and said.

She looked at Old Wang with surprise.

"Oh no, you should go to the toilet and check, this little whore, she won't run away, will she?" Old Mrs. Wang was very experienced and reacted immediately.

"What? Ran away?" Ye quickly ran to the backyard, but the toilet was empty and there was nothing but the stench.

"Mom, she's really not here." Her voice could be heard before she arrived.

"Oh no! Everyone, get up quickly. Xiaotao ran away. Get up and go find her. Hurry!" Old Mrs. Wang slapped her thigh and shouted in the yard.

Now everyone was woken up.

Including Zhou Ruixiang, he was crying on the bed with a sticky mouth, and Ye came into the room again to comfort him.
