Just as Li Mingjun was sneakily peeking into the house, Hu Yuanyuan's brother, who had just come out of the kitchen, saw him.
"Who are you? What are you looking for in my house?" Brother Hu asked, staring at him with a look of thief in his eyes.
Li Mingjun was startled by the sudden voice behind him. He turned around and saw that he had been discovered, so he didn't bother to hide anymore and simply said, "I'm here to see my sister."
Then she turned and called into the house, "Ah-E! Ah-E! Come out!"
"Oh, you're Ah-E's brother, right?" Brother Hu understood his identity as soon as he heard this.
Then he added, "Stop shouting, your sister isn't here."
Upon hearing this, Li Mingjun turned to look at him: "Didn't you hide her away?"
Brother Hu walked towards the main house and said, "Then you can come in and look for anything."
As he spoke, he stood at the door and gestured for us to come in.
Seeing that he said that, Li Mingjun went inside without any hesitation.
I looked through several rooms and didn't see Li Xue'e or her figure, but I also didn't see Hu Yuanyuan.
Brother Hu leaned against the door of the main house, looked at him and said, "I told you, she's not here."
Li Mingjun still didn't quite trust them, but since this was someone else's home, he couldn't make a scene.
Reluctantly, he turned and left.
After he left, Brother Hu snorted coldly, "Luckily I had the foresight to let the two of them spend the night in the mountain hut."
Aunt Hu came out and stood beside him, sighing, "A'e is so pitiful. Not only did she lose her biological mother at a young age, but her own father and brother treated her badly, and she's also bullied by her stepmother. Oh dear..."
After saying that, she turned to her son and said, "You only have one sister. Be good to your sister and don't be like him, okay? As an older brother, it's your duty to protect your sister."
Seeing that she suddenly turned to him, Brother Hu shrugged and said, "Haven't I been good to her? I've given her all the good food and drinks, and I've always stood up for her when she was bullied. Now that's good, Ah'e has also divorced that guy surnamed Yuan, so I can find someone to take care of him and that bastard!"
When he said the last sentence, his voice suddenly turned sinister.
Aunt Hu said with some worry, "Won't they guess that you did it? Will they retaliate later?"
Brother Hu said, "Don't worry, I have a way to make them never guess it's me."
After thinking it over, Mrs. Hu still didn't want her son to take the risk: "Maybe... let's just forget about it..."
Upon hearing her words, Brother Hu waved his hand and said, "Mom, what are you saying? Are you just going to let Yuanyuan be bullied by them for nothing? No way! I can't swallow this—I'm going to kill that bastard..."
"Brother Yao, let's wait a bit." A voice came from outside the courtyard, interrupting the two.
Hu Ma and her husband turned their heads and saw Yuan Mengge pushing her bicycle in.
"Ah'e's brother just arrived. Did you run into him on the way?" Hu Ge asked her immediately upon seeing her.
Yuan Mengge shook her head: "I avoided him, so he didn't see me."
After parking the bicycle properly, she looked at Brother Hu, Hu Guangyao, and said, "Brother Yao, don't lay a hand on my brother and Huang Jiazhong, I'll handle it."
These words startled the two members of the Hu family, who then looked at her incredulously: "You're coming? Aping, that's your own brother. Isn't it inappropriate for you to take action?"
Although Yuan Mengge was helping their family, harming her own relatives in the process would have negative consequences for her.
Yuan Mengge said, "Whether he's my brother or not, I won't let this kind of person go. As for Huang Jiazhong, don't take the initiative to make a move. Just keep an eye on him, and he'll cause trouble on his own and get himself arrested."
"Send him in?" Hu Guangyao looked at her with some confusion, then suddenly realized something and asked, "You mean... he often does illegal things?"
Yuan Mengge nodded: "Yeah, so don't rush things. The best revenge is to avoid getting your hands dirty. Brother, listen to me, wait a little longer. Don't let us get ourselves involved because of this kind of person."
After hearing her words, Hu Guangyao and his mother looked at her thoughtfully, then exchanged a glance.
Hu Ma was already worried that her son would get into trouble again because of his revenge, so when she heard Yuan Mengge's words, she immediately agreed and said, "Yes, Aping is right, let's wait a little longer."
Hu Guangyao looked at Yuan Mengge with some hesitation.
Yuan Mengge continued, "Brother Yao, you should first have someone keep an eye on him and collect evidence of his bad deeds. Then, when the time is right, you can strike him dead in one fell swoop."
After looking her over for a while, Hu Guangyao suddenly smiled meaningfully and said, "You little girl, your brother is so unlucky to have a sister like you."
Hearing his tone, Yuan Mengge knew he had agreed to her suggestion and said, "In a few days, that won't be the case. From now on, we'll be strangers with only blood ties."
After saying that, she added, "Sister Yuanyuan and the others went to the mountain retreat, right?"
Brother Hu nodded: "Okay, if you're going, I'll take you to the mountain hut in a bit."
Yuan Mengge replied, "I'll go by myself, I know the way. I'll just take a shower and then go... Oh, by the way, can I borrow Sister Yuanyuan's clothes to change into?"
Aunt Hu smiled and said, "Sure, sure, just look in her closet and take out something suitable to wear. I'll go get you some water."
Yuan Mengge quickly said, "Auntie, I can do it myself, I can do it myself, as long as you don't mind that I treat this place like my own home!"
She knew what kind of person Aunt Hu was; Aunt Hu was a good person, had a big heart, and wouldn't hold grudges.
Besides, she now considers herself her daughter's benefactor and is practically worshipping herself.
"Oh, what are you saying? How could I possibly look down on you? Alright, alright, if you want to come by yourself, then come by yourself. You can come here often in the future, just treat this place as your own home," Aunt Hu said with a smile.
Yuan Mengge said, "Auntie, it's okay, don't worry about me. I'll go find some clothes now."
As she spoke, she went to Hu Yuanyuan's room, rummaged through her clothes, and found a set of clothes.
Although she is young, she is slightly taller than Hu Yuanyuan, so she can wear Hu Yuanyuan's clothes.
Hu's mother whispered to her son, "Go and fetch some water for her and take it to the shower room. She probably thinks I'm an elder and doesn't want to bother me. Go ahead."
Hu Guangyao nodded and turned to go to the kitchen to fetch water for Yuan Mengge.
Yuan Mengge grabbed whatever she could wear, hung it up in the shower, and was about to fetch water when she saw Hu Guangyao had already brought over the hot water.
“That’s A Yuan’s towel, you can use hers,” Hu Guangyao said to her, pointing to a towel hanging on the wall.
