Several people were laughing happily, but Jiang Xueying with a cold look in her eyes quickly kicked the thug in the vital spot. It was so fast, accurate and fierce that no one present could react before they heard the man's miserable scream.
Jiang Xueying's expression remained calm, her eyes cold, as if the person who had just attacked her was not her at all.
What I did just now was just a simple self-defense technique, and Jiang Xueying was just giving a warning. She hoped that these people could recognize the situation, otherwise the next one would not be so easy.
After a cold glance, Jiang Xueying prepared to leave holding a child in each hand, but just as she moved, she was stopped by several big men who had just reacted.
The thug endured the severe pain and looked at Jiang Xueying, with flames seeming to flicker in his eyes.
"You... you dare to hit me? I'm going to kill you today!"
"mother!"
Ye Xiaoyu pulled Jiang Xueying's hand. Although she knew that the stepmother in this body was a killer, Ye Xiaoyu was still a little worried.
Jiang Xueying patted Ye Xiaoyu's hand, signaling her not to be afraid. She raised her head and looked coldly at the several big men who were staring at her warily and dared not approach her, sneering in her heart.
Humph, you bully the weak and fear the strong!
"Oh, I haven't been home for a few days. I didn't expect to encounter such a lively incident as soon as I arrived in the town. A few grown men bullying women and children?"
A strong voice suddenly sounded, and a young man approached step by step. Seeing the few people, he couldn't help but mock them.
"Where are you from? I advise you not to meddle in other people's business!"
When the gangster saw someone coming, he felt even more nervous, but the pain in his body was still telling him how much he was suffering, and he gritted his teeth and refused to give up.
"Haha, I don't have any good points. I just like to meddle in other people's business. Madam, please take the children over. I will teach these losers a lesson today!"
Jiang Xueying didn't expect that someone would help her, so she was naturally happy and at ease. She nodded to him in a friendly manner to express her gratitude, then took the two children away.
The man did not disappoint Jiang Xueying. He took care of the thugs in no time. Seeing that they were no match for him, the thugs quickly ran away with their heads in their hands.
Jiang Xueying realized that the man must be a martial artist, so she took her two children forward to thank him, but the man just smiled casually.
"Madam, you don't have to thank me. I just saw injustice and left!"
Seeing him leave, Jiang Xueying didn't stay any longer and left quickly with the two children.
As the days passed, the reconstruction of the village was in full swing. Jiang Xueying's house was almost repaired, so she invited the Qiao family and the Lin family to come to the new house for dinner, as a housewarming party to celebrate the completion of the relocation of each family's house.
Several families were having a great time, talking and laughing.
While they were eating, there was a knock on the door. Qiao was closest to the door, so she quickly wiped her mouth and got up to open the door.
When he saw clearly who the person was, Qiao was so surprised that he almost couldn't close his mouth.
"Qiao...Brother Qiao, you are finally back! When did you come back?"
Seeing that it was Qiao who opened the door, Qiao Yunnan couldn't help but be stunned. When he came to his senses, his usually sharp and cold eyebrows softened a little.
"Long time no see, brother...sister-in-law."
"Brother Qiao, long time no see."
How have you been lately?
Mrs. Qiao really wanted to ask this question, but looking at the man's raised lips and gentle tone in front of her, although she was happy in her heart, a different emotion flashed in her eyes, and in the end she chose to remain silent.
The two of us just stood there, neither of us spoke, and the scene was a little awkward for a moment.
Jiang Xueying walked over and saw what the two were doing. She instantly felt that the atmosphere seemed a little weird, but the moment she saw Qiao Yunnan, she couldn't help but be stunned.
Isn't this the man who rescued the mother and her two children in the town that day? Is he the eldest son of the Qiao family?
When Grandma Qiao heard Mrs. Qiao calling Qiao Yunnan's name, she was so excited that she rushed forward without even putting down her chopsticks. When she saw Qiao Yunnan standing at the door, she was immediately surprised and happy. She excitedly ran up to her and grabbed Qiao Yunnan's sleeve, looking him up and down, asking him all kinds of questions.
"Son, how have you been these days? When did you come back? Are you thirsty, hungry, or tired on the way? Do you want to rest?"
"Mom, I'm fine, don't worry. I just came back, but when I came back I couldn't find our house, so I went to the village chief's house. The village chief said you moved here, so I came here to find you."
"Brother Qiao, you're back just in time. Why don't you sit down and have a meal with us? You must be tired after traveling all the way. Let's talk while we eat."
Seeing that it was her benefactor, Jiang Xueying immediately stood up and bought a new set of bowls and chopsticks for Qiao Yunnan, and asked Grandma Qiao to take him to sit down and eat together.
Qiao Yunnan also noticed Jiang Xueying and smiled at her politely. No one mentioned what happened that day.
At the dinner table, Qiao Yunnan learned about what had happened during this period of time, and learned that so many things had happened in the village during this period of time. Moreover, it was Jiang Xueying who saved the entire Qiao family. He put down his bowl and chopsticks, stood up and bowed to Jiang Xueying in gratitude.
"Thank you, Madam Jiang, for saving my life. The Qiao family has no way to repay you. If you have any difficulties in the future, please let us know and the Qiao family will definitely help you."
"Brother Qiao, we are all friends. You are welcome."
Jiang Xueying accepted Brother Qiao's gift with a smile. This was also fate. She saved the Qiao family, and the Qiao family saved her. It really was God's will.
"By the way, why don't you see my wife?"
Qiao Yunnan looked around at the people at the table, but didn't see Mrs. Qiao. He couldn't help but feel strange. His wife usually loved to run around with his mother, so why was she gone now?
At this point, Grandma Qiao couldn't help but look embarrassed.
Qiao Yunnan felt something was wrong when he saw the look on his mother's face, and he had already guessed something.
"Hey, Nan'er, don't be sad after I tell you this. You don't know that a lot of things have happened during the time you were away from home..."
Granny Qiao sighed heavily and told the truth about Sister-in-law Qiao's death from illness. It was Jiang Xueying who told them after she came back. Granny Qiao and Mrs. Qiao thought that Sister-in-law Qiao was a member of the Qiao family after all, so they went to the mountain to collect her body and found a place to bury her.
After hearing the whole story, Qiao Yunnan was silent for a while, and finally said nothing, just sighed. He had anticipated some things, but he didn't expect things to turn out like this.
After dinner, everyone went about their own business.
Now that Qiao Yunnan is back, as the only man in the Qiao family, the task of building the new house is naturally given to him. The burden on the two women of the Qiao family is instantly lightened a lot, and they have time to do other things.
