Seeing that Qin Qingman didn't say anything or express her opinion, Qin Xiang, Li Meina and the other two became anxious. They leaned on crutches and bowed their heads to Qin Qingman again without caring about their face. "Qingman, we know we were wrong. Please forgive us this time, and we won't dare to do it again in the future."
The reason they bowed their heads now was not because of Qin Qingman, but because of Qian Xiangyang.
Qian Xiangyang even told them to divorce, which shows that the director of public security was very angry, otherwise he would not have said such words.
Qin Qingman turned her gaze to Qin Xiang and the two aunts. Her mind quickly flashed through how these people followed Zhu Hongxia to plot against the original owner. Thinking of the grievances the original owner had suffered, her eyes instantly became slightly moist.
These tears were not her original intention, but they were definitely related to the original owner.
"I hope my aunt will keep her word to my aunt."
Qin Qingman knew that it was time to stop. Qian Xiangyang helped her in order to rectify the atmosphere in the village, not necessarily because he really wanted to cause divorces in the village.
"I will definitely keep my word, Qingman. Don't worry, I will pay you back the money and food I owe you as soon as the harvest comes next year."
In order to gain Qin Qingman's trust, Qin Xiang really risked everything.
It always looks more generous and better to offer something proactively than to have it given to you by others.
Li Meina and Yao Chunying were surprised by Qin Xiang's generosity. They immediately changed their minds and quickly promised, "Qingman, we will do the same. We will pay you back after the harvest next year. We will also take care of your firewood next year. We will cut it for you."
Qin Qingman was very satisfied with the three people who were aware of current affairs.
She immediately smiled gently, "Aunt, two aunts, you don't have to chop firewood. Your families consume a lot of firewood in winter, and chopping firewood is time-consuming and laborious. I think it's better to forget it. It's cold, you should hurry back to your house to recuperate. If you recover early, you can have a good New Year."
Qin Xiang looked at the smile on Qin Qingman's face and immediately understood that this was a step forward.
Forced to smile, she had to follow up with the promise, "Qingman, I was sorry for you and Chuchu before, but now I have thought it through. We are a family with the same blood. If we don't help each other, we will be worse than outsiders. Don't worry, your uncle and I still have some strength, so chopping wood will be no problem. We will take care of the firewood for your family next year, and you just need to take good care of Chuchu at home."
"Aunt, then...how can I say that?" Qin Qingman pretended to be polite.
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. It's the elders' duty to care for the younger ones. Chuchu is still young, and you're a girl. There's no need for you to do heavy work like chopping wood. We can do it. After all, we are all family." Qin Xiang swallowed her anger and still had to smile.
Qin Qingman saw that the conversation was almost over, so she said, "Then I'll trouble you, my aunt and the two aunts."
Qin Xiang and others made their promise in front of the whole village and Qian Xiangyang, the director of public security. Qin Qingman was not afraid that they would not honor their promise next year.
Seeing that Qin Qingman finally put the past behind her, Qin Xiang, Li Meina and others finally breathed a sigh of relief.
I'm already in my forties, how could I be willing to get a divorce?
Life is difficult after a divorce, whether you live alone or return to your parents' home. The children will suffer even more. People are biased, and there are few stepmothers in the world who can treat the children of their previous life sincerely.
Originally, Qin Zhenzhu and the other girls were holding their mothers' hands with trembling hands. They were worried that their parents would really get divorced. Now they were relieved to see that Qian Xiangyang no longer mentioned divorce.
Of course it is better to be with your own mother than with a stepmother.
Haven’t you seen that the lives of the girls with stepmothers in the village are as miserable as if they were soaked in bitter gourds?
Qian Xiangyang saw Qin Qingman shaking hands with Li Meina and the others and made peace, and he looked at Qin Qingman with a higher opinion. This young comrade was very sensible and could understand what he meant. She was a talented person. Thinking that the Qin family had indeed treated the young girl badly before, his eyes stopped on Qin Lei's face.
Qin Lei, who had been reducing his presence, felt Qian Xiangyang's gaze and felt a chill in his heart.
"Director... Director, no matter how bad my wife is, she manages my family and gave birth to three children for me. I don't want to get divorced. Hongxia has let Qingman down. I will apologize to Qingman on her behalf. I am willing to be beaten or punished. What do you think, can we not get divorced?" Qin Lei looked at Qian Xiangyang pitifully.
Maybe because it was cold, he was hunched over and had a runny nose.
Qin Lei looked both pitiful and ugly like this.
Qian Xiangyang frowned slightly and looked at Qin Qingman with some embarrassment.
Qin Qingman is the one who is in trouble, and it is really up to Qin Qingman to decide whether to forgive or not. Thinking of this, Qian Xiangyang glanced at Wei Ling standing next to Qin Qingman. He is a dazzling man and a powerful man.
The reason why he helped Qin Qingman today was partly because of the atmosphere in the village, and also because of Wei Ling's sake.
Otherwise, why didn't they care about Qin Qingman at that time?
Wei Ling of course noticed Qian Xiangyang's eyes, thought about it, and whispered in Qin Qingman's ear: "Qingman, no matter what decision you make, I support you, you don't have to wrong yourself and Chuchu."
He is a person who protects his faults, both in his past life and in this life.
The feeling of being cared for made Qin Qingman feel full of strength. She knew that the punishment for Zhu Hongxia could not be raised too high or let down lightly, because as long as this person did not really realize that she was wrong, she would still plot against her behind her back.
"Qingman, please, Second Uncle begs you, please forgive your Second Aunt just once. It was your Second Aunt who was foolish. I will take good care of her in the future and will never let her make you angry again. Please be magnanimous and forgive her this time." Qin Lei saw that Qian Xiangyang's eyes stayed on Wei Ling's face, so he knew who he should beg.
"Uncle, let's sever our ties from now on. We should keep our distance from each other."
Qin Qingman finally gave the answer after thinking about it.
In the original plot, Zhu Hongxia is not a good person, and Qin Caiyun is not someone who is easy to get along with. She plans to sever the relationship between the two families today, so that this family will not be implicated if they get into trouble in the future.
As for letting Zhu Hongxia go to jail, forget it. As long as she lives in Kaoshan Village, she has to consider the face of the brigade secretary and Qian Xiangyang. These two people will never allow any criminals to go to jail in the village.
Qin Qingman gave the answer, and the others looked at Qin Qingman in shock.
No one expected Qin Qingman to do things so decisively and ruthlessly.
Even Qian Xiangyang couldn't understand it. The families in the village were all closely related, and it was better to have connections than not. Why did Qingman still want to sever ties with her uncle's family?
However, when he thought about how Qin Qingman's uncles treated the child after her parents passed away, he did not express his opinion.
"Do you want to end the relationship?" Qin Lei looked at Qin Qingman in surprise.
What kind of punishment is this?
The two families have not severed their relationship and are not close, so there is nothing to do.
Regardless of whether Qin Lei understood or not, Qin Qingman nodded and said, "Yes, please let the two directors present be witnesses. From today on, our two families will completely sever their family ties and will never have any contact with each other again."
She was seeking justice for the original owner.
Zhu Hongxia was hit by the wild boar but nothing happened. It was the other party's good fortune. She will not target Zhu Hongxia again in the future, but the premise is that Zhu Hongxia does not provoke her.
"Promise her! Damn it! Without her, Qin Qingman, we can't live!"
The person who said this was Zhu Hongxia.
At this time, Zhu Hongxia, supported by Qin Caiyun, walked to the gate tremblingly, looking in the direction of Qin Qingman and the others and screaming loudly.
I did shout.
After shouting this, she covered her chest and coughed continuously.
"Mom, let's go back to the house."
Qin Caiyun, who was supporting Zhu Hongxia, had a numb face. She wore a hat on her scalp that was scratched by the goose, so she was not exposed to the wind and was not exposed to the public. But her heart died when Zhu Hongxia and her husband sold their daughter and broke off the engagement to find a job for their son.
"Boss, if Qin Qingman wants to sever the relationship between the two families, then let her do it. We don't rely on her." Before returning to the house, Zhu Hongxia reminded Qin Lei again.
Qin Lei turned and looked at Qin Qingman.
"Director, since Zhu Hongxia has agreed, my family will no longer have any relationship with his family from now on, and fellow villagers should stop comparing our two families." Qin Qingman could see that Zhu Hongxia had no remorse at all.
It was a matter of mutual consent, so Qian Xiangyang nodded in agreement.
He could force Qin Lei to admit his mistakes, but he could not suppress people's hearts. Since Zhu Hongxia had no feelings for him, there was no need for him to get involved in the Qin family's affairs.
But he felt that Zhu Hongxia was a little shallow.
He thought his two sons had secured jobs, so he dared to act so arrogantly. However, what they didn't know was that jobs can be arranged or lost, and losing a job is just a matter of a few tricks. It is still difficult to get started in the family without someone to support the family.
"Dad, let's go home."
Since Zhu Hongxia agreed to cut off ties with Qin Qingman's family, there was no need for Qin Lei and his family to stay and be laughed at. Qin Jianming and Qin Jianjun supported Qin Lei as he walked home.
At this point, Boss Zhu and Liu Rong could also leave.
When they left Kaoshantun, the group of people were covered in dust and dirt. They were complaining to each other along the way, and the one who received the most complaints was Boss Zhu.
Boss Zhu was also angry, but since the trouble was caused by his sister, he could only bear it.
At the door of Qin Qingman's house, seeing that there was no more excitement, everyone hurried home at the urging of Qian Xiangyang, stomping their feet as they walked.
Standing in the snow and watching the excitement is really not a good thing for a human being. If it’s any later, your feet will be frozen and numb.
Qin Qingman was in a good mood seeing that the matter had been resolved satisfactorily. She glanced at Qin Lei who was being supported home by Qin Jianjun and his two brothers. She whispered a few words to Wei Ling, and then called Qin Xiang and the two aunts.
"Aunt, Third Aunt, Fourth Aunt, wait a minute."
Qin Xiang and others, who were originally preparing to leave with the help of their young ladies, immediately looked at Qin Qingman nervously.
Even the villagers who were heading home after watching the excitement turned back.
Everyone wanted to know why Qin Qingman stopped Qin Xiang and the others. Did she want to make things difficult for them?
Then everyone saw Wei Ling carrying three pieces of meat and walking to Qin Qingman's side.
Each piece of meat looked quite substantial, roughly estimated to be around 7 or 8 kilograms.
In an era when each person was only allocated an average of 20 kilograms of meat per year, this was a great gift. Although farmers could secretly raise a few chickens and geese in their backyards to satisfy their hunger, and get more meat when pigs were slaughtered in the village during festivals, it was not much more.
Unless they are hunters, only hunters eat more meat.
envy!
The more Qin Xiang and the others were secretly laughed at by the villagers before, the more the villagers envied them now. They wanted to eat meat if they admitted their mistakes to the youngsters, but unfortunately they did not have the youngsters who could have so much meat.
At this moment, all eyes looking at Qin Qingman were filled with envy.
Some people even secretly glanced at Wei Ling.
I don’t know if Wei Ling has any unmarried comrades-in-arms. It would be great if I could introduce them to my daughter.
There are many people who think this way.
But everyone could only sigh in their hearts when looking at Qin Qingman's face. Qin Qingman was good-looking and well-educated, and it was also Wei Ling's ability that she was favored by him. There was no lady in their village who could compare to Qin Qingman.
Qin Xiang didn't know that the villagers were jealous of her. She was stunned when she saw the meat. She couldn't believe that Qin Qingman would give her meat. "Qing... Qingman, what do you mean?"
Li Meina and Yao Chunying also share the same idea.
The three young girls who were supporting their mother couldn't help swallowing their saliva with greed.
Qin Qingman looked at the disbelief in the eyes of Qin Xiang and the others, took the meat from Wei Ling's hand and divided it among the three of them, "Aunt, Third Aunt, Fourth Aunt, we are still family, let the misunderstandings in the past go with the wind, from today on, we can be as close as a family."
Qin Qingman's words were so nice, and what made Qin Xiang and the others even more satisfied was the meat that was stuffed into their hands.
Regardless of the fact that the meat was frozen, they held the meat with great satisfaction, and looked at Qin Qingman's family with extremely kind eyes.
People are like this sometimes. A little kindness and a little food can make the bad temper in their hearts dissipate.
"Qingman, if you have any problems in the future, just ask us. As long as it's something our family has, we will never object." Qin Xiang's heart was warmed, and she didn't even feel the pain in the wound.
It’s actually that simple to exchange sincerity for sincerity.
"Then I won't be polite to my aunts and cousins in the future." Qin Qingman understood people's hearts very well and knew how to hit them hard. "Aunt, third aunt, fourth aunt, it's cold, you should go home and recuperate. When you are better, come to my house and have a visit."
"Well, let's go back now."
Qin Xiang looked at Qin Qingman seriously before turning around with a smile on her face.
Far away, Qin Lei, who had not yet entered the house, saw Qin Qingman generously giving Qin Xiang and several others human flesh, and he felt even worse. If his wife could bow her head to Qingman, would their family also have meat to eat today!
The Qin Jianming brothers also had the same idea.
The two brothers were both greedy for meat. They looked at Qin Zhenzhu and her family with envy because they had meat while they did not, and they also blamed Zhu Hongxia.
He even wanted to kneel down before Qin Qingman and apologize on behalf of his mother.
Gululu——
I don't know whose stomach growled, but then there was a trio of gurgling sounds.
"Mom, are we going back to my second uncle's house?" Qin Zhenzhu supported Li Meina, her eyes shining as she looked at the baby in Li Meina's arms.
"Silly, why are you going to your second uncle's house? Don't you have room for him in our house?" Li Meina gave her silly daughter a smug look. If she went into Zhu Hongxia's house again, she would be in trouble.
Qin Xiang and Yao Chunying are also educating their daughters in the same way.
Qin Jianming and his brother, who were far away, heard this and became so angry that their faces turned red.
"Dad, my aunt and my third and fourth aunts are too much. When they were recuperating, they stayed at our house to sleep on the kang, and when they had meat, they rushed back to their own homes. They just used it and then threw it away. Aren't they taking advantage of us?"
Qin Jianjun was still young, so he spoke without restraint and directly expressed his dissatisfaction.
Qin Lei didn't have time to cover his son's mouth, and the words were carried by the wind into the ears of Qin Xiang and others.
Qin Xiang and Li Meina were not satisfied.
Qin Xiang raised her voice and said, "Brother, how did you teach your children? What do you mean by rubbing your kang? Not to mention that the wild boar was provoked by your sister-in-law, how can you say such unpleasant things when it was injured in your house for only one day?"
Seeing Qin Jianjun's unhappy face, Li Meina said, "Second brother, my head of the family helped your family a lot when they were in trouble. How come we are considered to be using your kang just because we slept on it for one night? If you really want to calculate it this way, then let's settle all the accounts of our previous help and see who took advantage of whom."
"That's right. This summer you sprained your ankle. My Qin Shi went to your house to help you a lot. The work points were also paid by my third brother and my Qin Shi. How come you are bullying me now that my Qin Shi is not here? What do you mean by rubbing your hands on the kang? Do I need your firewood? Second brother, if you really think we burned too much firewood while you were healing at your house and it's a loss, then fine, I'll let Huihui bring the firewood back to you in a while."
Yao Chunying was almost hurt by Qin Jianjun's words.
Seeing that everyone was furious, Qin Lei quickly patted Qin Jianjun on the back and explained, "His aunt, his aunt, don't be angry. Jianjun is still young and can't speak. Don't bother with a child like him. It's my job to let you recuperate in my house. We are a family and we don't talk to each other."
"Oh, second brother, I dare not accept the words of a family. We treat you as a family, but I didn't expect that in your hearts we are outsiders. Even a small injury is like taking advantage of the situation. It really shows that my Qin Shi is too incompetent." Yao Chunying said to Qin Lei in a sarcastic tone.
Even after saying this, he turned around and took Qin Huihui back home.
After a while she asked Huihui to go to her second uncle's house to clean up the roof. Why should she care about other people's faces when she has her own family?
"Auntie, please don't leave. I'll let Jianjun apologize to you."
Qin Lei tried his best to keep Yao Chunying, but was met with a ruthless back without even turning back, so he could only turn his gaze to Qin Xiang.
Qin Xiang is his biological sister, so he can't just ignore her as her brother.
Qin Xiang did not get angry with Qin Lei on the spot, but her expression darkened a lot. Being accused of being a spoiled child by a kid was quite unpleasant. It showed how her second brother and second sister-in-law usually talked about her in front of the children, otherwise Jianjun would not have said such a thing.
"Little sister." Looking at Qin Xiang's face, Qin Lei had a bad feeling in his heart.
"Brother, my wound hurts a little. I need to go back and lie down." Qin Xiang didn't say anything unpleasant, but chose to leave.
As for Li Meina, she had already taken her daughter back to her home when Qin Lei was talking to Qin Xiang.
It's not like she didn't have a home, and her family had firewood to heat the kang. She had stayed at Qin Lei's house to recuperate for two reasons: one was because it was Qin Lei's house that she was brought back from the mountain, and her injuries were also treated there, and it was not suitable for her to move around after the injury; and the other was that she thought that if they all recuperated together they could talk and it would be more lively. She didn't expect to be accused of using the kang for free.
Those words are so hurtful.
The three women ignored Qin Lei and left.
Faced with the irreparable rift, Qin Lei felt terribly disappointed.
"Dad..." Qin Jianjun's voice trembled a little, he knew he was in trouble.
"You rebellious son, if you don't speak no one will think you are dumb." Qin Lei's scolding was followed by a loud slap in the face.
"Dad." Qin Jianjun covered his face with a hint of resentment in his eyes.
He didn't think he was wrong. These were the words his parents had said in private, and he just said them out loud. More importantly, if his parents had the ability, their family could have eaten meat today.
Inside the room, Zhu Hongxia had already heard clearly what was happening outside. She knew that this was Qin Qingman's revenge against her.
She had gritted her teeth and endured it at first, but the slap Qin Lei gave Qin Jianjun made her unable to hold back her anger any longer. "Boss, why did you hit Jianjun? Even if Jianjun said something wrong, the elders still have their own little plans. They can tell a person's character by just looking at a piece of meat. What's the point of having such relatives?"
"Wife, do you really want to be abandoned by everyone and have no one to talk to?"
Qin Lei walked into the bedroom and looked at Zhu Hongxia seriously.
Zhu Hongxia originally wanted to remain stubborn, but there was no one else at home at the moment, and she was already panicking and couldn't help but cover her head with the quilt.
How sad it felt to be pampered by my sister-in-law and two sisters-in-law before.
She didn't want to be estranged from Li Meina and the others. It was they who were estranged from her and were blaming her. They blamed her for causing Qin Qingman to bend over.
Qin Lei was unable to say anything harsh when he saw Zhu Hongxia like this. He sighed heavily and went to the living room to warm himself by the fire.
The couple was in a gloomy mood, and Qin Qingman also took Wei Ling and Chu Chu back home.
Three pieces of meat can alienate the relationship between Zhu Hongxia and Qin Xiang, so why not do it.
Wei Ling walked beside Qin Qingman, turned his head to look at her, and could see that the corners of Qin Qingman's mouth were slightly raised.
A smile flashed in his eyes. He already knew that the person he liked was smart.
Look, the situation that was about to explode was not only resolved by his wife's words, but also brought many practical benefits. If he was in charge of this matter, he probably wouldn't be able to handle it so well.
If he and his wife both lived in the former Duke's Mansion, his wife would definitely be able to handle the complex interpersonal relationships in an orderly manner.
"Have you seen enough?"
Just as Wei Ling was looking at Qin Qingman in a daze, the sound of Qin Qingman gritting her teeth rang softly in his ears.
It turned out that Qin Qingman discovered that he was peeking.
Wei Ling, who had never peeked at a girl before, felt his face slightly hot, but even so, he still answered Qin Qingman's words seriously, "I haven't seen enough." He wanted to see his wife for the rest of his life.
Now it was Qin Qingman's turn to blush.
Not only did her face blush, but there was also a hint of shyness in her eyes.
"Wife, I want to go back to the barracks." Wei Ling thought for a while and asked Qin Qingman for permission.
Speaking of business, Qin Qingman didn't care about being shy and asked concernedly, "Did something happen?" She just heard Wei Ling say yesterday that he would take a few days off and would go back today, so there must be something he needed to deal with.
Wei Ling did not hide the fact that it was not a military matter from Qin Qingman, and said, "The appearance of wild boars in that forest is a very dangerous matter. We, the soldiers stationed there, have the obligation to investigate it thoroughly. If someone dies, it is a serious matter."
"Then be careful. I'll get you some food and you can put it in the shed where we used to stay." When Qin Qingman heard that Wei Ling was going up the mountain to explore the forest, she immediately thought of the first meal they had eaten together.
"good."
Wei Ling didn't bother to be polite with Qin Qingman and nodded directly.
"Are you in a hurry? If not, have lunch before leaving." Qin Qingman glanced at the sun in the sky and estimated that it was around ten o'clock. It was still possible to have another meal at this time. The pig lungs were just stewed and were emitting fragrance on the stove.
Wei Ling had just established a relationship with Qin Qingman, and actually didn't want to leave so early. In the end, he agreed to finish his meal before leaving.
Chu Chu was very reluctant to hear that Wei Ling was leaving. While Wei Ling was talking to Qin Qingman, he took some corn and a few radishes to feed the horses.
His family had no hay, so he could only feed the horses with grain, otherwise the horses would be hungry and unable to move.
For lunch, Qin Qingman made steamed mixed-grain buns. The color wasn’t that pretty, but they tasted good.
After several hours of stewing, the pig's lungs had a milky white broth with a fresh fragrance. This was Wei Ling's first time eating pig's lungs, and it was also the most unforgettable pig's lungs.
The canteen in their military camp had stewed pig lungs before, but the color and smell were so bad that he couldn't eat a bite of meat even if he wanted to, and he ended up giving his share to his comrades.
"Ah Ling, I cooked some sausages. They will be cooked soon. You can take them home and heat them up whenever you want to eat them."
Qin Qingman thought that all the pork in the yard was thanks to Wei Ling, so she didn't plan to eat it all alone. She asked Wei Ling to take some of the processed sausages back to the barracks. This thing is simple to eat and not easy to spoil.
Wei Ling hesitated for only a second before nodding.
Now that he has a wife, he has to bring some gifts back, otherwise he won’t be able to report to his comrades.
When Wei Ling left the Qin family, not only Chuchu was reluctant to let him go, but Qin Qingman was also reluctant. Although she had only been with Wei Ling for less than a day, feelings are so strange that one will naturally become dependent on someone they trust.
"Close the doors and windows at night. If there is any noise outside, don't go out. I will come back and deal with it."
Before leaving, Wei Ling gave Qin Qingman some instructions.
He didn't say that someone was trying to break into the Qin family's yard to steal meat last night, but he had to remind the siblings to be careful. Although the security in Kaoshantun is good, there is no guarantee that someone will take risks for the meat.
"I understand. Don't worry." Qin Qingman listened to Wei Ling's words.
In fact, when Boss Zhu and his men came to cause trouble, she noticed the human traces outside the courtyard wall. Thinking that Wei Ling could kill a wild boar with his bare hands, she guessed what might have happened last night.
"I...I'll be back soon."
After saying this, Wei Ling mounted his horse and gave a light kick on the horse's belly. The horse started running and ran farther and farther away in the sight of Qin Qingman and her brother.
Only when Wei Ling disappeared from view did the brother and sister turn around and go into the yard.
Qin Qingman touched her earlobe and it seemed a little hot.
"Alas, Brother Wei is gone." Little adult Chu Chu also sighed.
"Why are you sighing? Your brother Wei will come back." Qin Qingman rubbed Chuchu's hatted head.
This place is considered a snowy place. Not only does it snow heavily every year, but the snowy period is also long. In order to prevent people from freezing to death, the government does not strictly control leather, so every family has fur boots, fur hats, and some even have fur coats.
Qin Qingman's family used to have a fur coat, but they sold it to raise money while her parents were recovering from illness.
At this time, apart from the fur hats and leather boots, they could only wear cotton coats. The warmth retention was a little worse than that of leather coats, but it was enough for them as long as they did not travel far.
Chuchu, who had just learned to be sad like an adult, was being rubbed on the head by Qin Qingman. She slipped and fell directly into the snow.
A large herringbone shape immediately appeared in the thick snow.
Qin Qingman was stunned for only a second before she started laughing.
Before she wore it, she envied the snow in Snow Town, but when she really arrived at such a place, she realized how cold Snow Town was.
If the temperature at home is not high enough, your hands will be so frozen that you can’t even unbutton your clothes.
"sister."
When Chu Chu got up, she saw Qin Qingman smiling with her eyes curved, and she immediately made a snowball and threw it at her.
My sister has learned bad things!
Chuchu was not very strong, and the snowball slid down after hitting Qin Qingman, but it aroused Qin Qingman's childish interest.
Without hesitation, Qin Qingman bent down and started making snowballs.
Chu Chu was so frightened that she ran around the yard screaming, fighting back as she ran. A snowball fight broke out in the Qin family's yard.
There was endless laughter and joy, and the eyes and expressions of the brother and sister were extremely lively.
The laughter in Qin Qingman's yard startled several families nearby.
Zhu Hongxia was in a bad mood today and couldn't stand hearing others laugh. Although she didn't see what Qin Qingman and Chuchu were doing, she still cursed, "You only have a soldier as your backer, why are you being such a bitch?"
"My ancestor, shut up! Are you complaining that you haven't had enough to eat?"
Qin Lei, who was standing by, was so angry when he heard Zhu Hongxia's blunt words that he almost covered her stinky mouth with his hand. She still dared to say anything at this time. Did she think her family was not peaceful enough?
"I……"
Zhu Hongxia still wanted to argue, but finally seeing Qin Lei's strange look, she didn't dare to say anything unpleasant.
Qin Caiyun, who was watching coldly, felt no emotion at all.
From the moment she had no say at all in the broken engagement, she no longer had this family in her heart. The life and death of this family had nothing to do with her. If she could be independent, she would have left long ago and would not have wanted to compromise anymore.
Reaching out and touching the hat on her head, Qin Caiyun hated Qin Qingman and her brother.
If it wasn't for their goose, how could she have scratched her scalp and been broken off from engagement?
Hearing the crisp laughter coming from outside the window, Qin Caiyun's face suddenly twitched.
Zhu Hongxia's family thought that Qin Qingman and Chuchu's laughter was harsh and unpleasant, but the other families did not think so.
Qin Zhenzhu, who had just heated up her own kang, leaned against the window to look at Qin Qingman and her brother playing in the Qin family's yard. Her eyes were full of envy. It seemed that she had not played snowball fights since she was ten years old.
"Pearl, you must hide the meat well, don't let your brother steal it."
Li Meina was in a good mood lying on the warm kang.
"Mom, look at what you said to me. How can I still steal meat to eat?" Qin Defu entered Li Meina's room from the hall. His father was not at home, so the family burned the kang in this room. He slept at the end of the kang at night.
"I don't know you yet?" Li Meina didn't even want to talk about her greedy son.
Qin Defu rubbed his nose, approached Li Meina, and said flatteringly: "Mom, you need to eat something good to recover from your illness. Let's not cook much, just make some meat soup. It's winter, and drinking some meat soup will warm your body."
"I think you are just greedy." Li Meina saw through her son's little trick.
Qin Defu was not ashamed to be seen through, and simply admitted: "Mom, anyway, Dad and the others will definitely have hunted prey when they come back. He doesn't lack meat to eat, but we do. Why don't you cook some meat today? I haven't eaten meat for a long time."
"Nonsense, didn't we kill chickens and eat them half a month ago?" Li Meina rebuked Qin Defu.
"Mom, it was more than half a month ago. I have long forgotten the taste of meat. I just saw that the piece of meat that Sister Qingman sent to our house was very big and had a lot of fat. How about we cut some of the fat and stew it with sauerkraut? It will definitely taste good."
As he spoke, Qin Defu couldn't help but suck the saliva in his mouth.
Li Meina and Qin Zhenzhu were also aroused by Qin Defu's words.
"Mom, why don't we cook some meat today? Grandpa Lin said that if you want your injury to heal quickly, you must take good care of yourself and nourish yourself well. The sooner the better." Qin Zhenzhu also ate meat. Seeing that Li Meina was a little interested, she persuaded her.
"Yes, mother, the Chinese New Year is only one month away. There are so many things to do during the Chinese New Year, how can our family do without you? You have to get well soon." Qin Defu kept racking his brains for a bite of meat.
"Okay, let's make a meat dinner today, but you have to save some for your father."
