What you fear is bound to happen. When He Xuyang and Huang Xia rushed Xiao Deng, who had a high fever, to the city hospital, the doctor who attended to him had a pale face.

After a detailed diagnosis of the child's symptoms, it was confirmed that he had meningitis combined with pneumonia. His condition was critical, and even if he survived, he would most likely become mentally retarded.

Huang Xia was struck by lightning, if she had known that her good daughter would become like this, she would not have tricked Yaya to the river to do such a thing.

It turned out that it was Yaya who instructed Xiao Deng to trick him out.

That day, after seeing He Xuyang and Qiao Chudong go out to talk, she was afraid that He Xuyang would persuade Qiao Chudong to go back, so she asked her son to bring Yaya out.

She lied to Yaya and said she would take her to find her mother, and Yaya believed it.

The original intention was to take the opportunity to prevent He Xuyang and Qiao Chudong from repairing their relationship, but they unknowingly came to the river.

She looked at the turbulent river and had evil thoughts in her mind. Although the water could not wash away the adults, it could certainly wash away a two-year-old child.

She knew that children were the bond between a man and his wife. Although He Xuyang did not care much about Yaya, he would not treat his daughter as harshly as other fathers who favored boys over girls.

Besides, as a woman, she also doesn't understand women. Qiao Chudong is the kind of woman who would suffer for her children all her life.

So...what if the child doesn't have a body?

So she decided to push Yaya down, but she didn't expect that He Xuyang came over just when she pushed Yaya down.

In order not to arouse his suspicion, she pushed her son down as well.

Then she shouted for help, saying that the two children were fighting, and Yaya wanted to push her son down, but she didn't stand steadily and fell down. Her naive and stupid son actually tried to catch Yaya, but ended up falling down too.

After He Xuyang rushed into the river, he grabbed Xiaoya first, but her daughter Xiaodeng was washed away.

She hurriedly asked He Xuyang to save her son first, saying that Yaya was temporarily safe as she was close to the shore. As expected, He Xuyang believed her and immediately went to save Xiaodeng. When he looked back, Yaya had been swept away by the undercurrent.

She was so excited at the time, she didn't expect that Yaya, that little bitch, was fine, but her daughter was in trouble now.

If this was her retribution, on what basis should she bear it alone?

"Xuyang, what should I do? Why is Yaya so bad? She is so young and yet she is so dangerous. Is there anyone who can teach her?"

After the two had physical intimacy, and since they were in the city, Huang Xia blatantly leaned on He Xuyang's shoulder.

He Xuyang took into consideration that she needed comfort for her current situation, so he did not push her away. He just said with a serious look in his eyes: "Maybe the two kids were just playing around at that time."

Huang Xia jumped up as if stimulated: "Xuyang, I know you prefer that girl in your heart. It doesn't matter what you do to me, but you can't hurt my child. My child is my bottom line!"

He Xuyang looked at her eyes which were red with anger and grievance, and he was moved.

"I'll give you a hand..."

After the old man of the Qiao family was sent up the mountain by the gong and drum team early in the morning, Qiao Laosan and his family finally returned.

Since everyone in the village knew what his father and son had done, even though Qiao Lao San was paralyzed and unable to speak, he still suffered a lot of contempt.

Even Mrs. Qiao and Qiao Laosan's family felt that the villagers were unequal and hated equality.

The whole family shamelessly turned a deaf ear to him and as soon as they entered the door, they started asking Qiao Xinguo for a share of the funeral money.

The old lady emphasized that the third child was in trouble now and should get the biggest share, but the eldest family was not short of money anyway, so they could get less or no share.

Qiao Xinguo has been working hard and giving money these days, and he has been very busy. Before he even got comfortable on the bench, they opened their mouths to ask for money. Anyone would be angry.

Qiao Zhixia was afraid that Qiao Xinguo would become soft-hearted after seeing how miserable Qiao Laosan was now, so she asked her mother to take him back to rest while she took care of the matter.

"Sister, please calculate the old man's funeral expenses, the money we spent on the wedding banquet, and the money we received, and see how much Uncle San should give us as compensation."

"Okay." Qiao Chudong took the account books and started calculating on the abacus on the small dining table nearby.

The second aunt and the third aunt of the Qiao family hugged old lady Qiao and watched Qiao Chudong skillfully fiddling with the abacus beads. They didn't know what they wanted to do. They just wanted to collect as much money as possible. Why was there so much trouble?

Qiao Zhixia sat calmly drinking tea, while Qiao Chudong worked very quickly and finished the calculation very smoothly.

In the end, not only did Qiao Laosan not get any share of the money, he also had to pay Qiao Xinguo 130 yuan.

After hearing this, Qiao Laosan's group was directly furious, because the account was handed over, and every expense was remembered clearly, and they couldn't refute it.

Nowadays, although the cost of funerals is very low, in many aspects, the villagers even take the initiative to help without paying.

But some expenses are unavoidable, and the biggest part of funeral expenses is the banquet.

There were 20 tables for this funeral banquet, and each table cost about 25 yuan.

In the countryside, a family of three to five people can occupy half of the table with just two or three yuan for a portion. After deducting the cost, they are basically losing money. How can they have any share of money?

So in the end, after using the money to offset the expenses, Qiao Xinguo still had to pay another two hundred and sixty yuan.

It was agreed when the family was divided that the funeral expenses of the two elders would be shared equally by the two brothers, so Qiao Lao San should also give Qiao Xinguo 130 yuan.

Seeing that they would not get a penny and would even have to pay extra money, how could they agree to this?

So the two girls sat on the ground, slapping their legs and crying.

The old lady's voice was particularly loud: "Grandpa! How can we live like this? This is bullying us because we don't have a man to support us! Old man, please open your eyes and take a look!"

Aunt Qiao was not far behind: "Dad just died, and the third child is also paralyzed... You all run companies, and you want to argue with us, an orphan and a widow, for a small amount of a hundred yuan? Jinbao and Yinbao, you must remember the face of your uncle's family, and support mom when you have a future!"

Qiao Zhixia crossed her legs and watched the show: "Aunt, my uncle is still alive! How come he is an orphan and a widow? If I didn't know, I would have thought you despised him and wished he would die soon!"

At this time, Qiao Laosan, who was lying on the stretcher nearby, suddenly began to groan. His face, with bulging veins, turned red, and although his speech was unclear, it was obvious that he was cursing.

Soon, a foul smell emanated from him...

"Dad, did you poop your pants? They stink."

The two filial sons, Jinbao and Yinbao, who were standing next to him, immediately ran away in disgust.

The others who were watching the excitement also covered their noses and stepped back. Seeing this, Qiao Lao San was so ashamed and angry that he turned his head and glared at his wife and mother fiercely, asking them to take him away.

After the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were sure that there was no benefit in staying with Qiao Zhixia, they had no choice but to take Qiao Laosan back first.

They called Qiao Jinbao and Qiao Yinbao to come and carry it, but the two older brothers ran away early.

Qiao Zhixia covered her nose and sneered: "Oh my, raising a son to provide for old age doesn't seem to be reliable. Uncle San will suffer in the future!"

After she said this, many people at the scene fell silent.

Because they are all male chauvinists.

Qiao Zhixia's attitude towards Old Man Qiao's family can be said to be the opposite, but the reason why no one stands up to accuse her is because she already has a certain status and wealth now.

This is the way the world is, the truth is always in the hands of the strong.
