Mu Huaixi dodged his aunt's pull, but she refused to give in. She shamelessly grabbed Xiao Huihui's hand and stuffed something into it.
Xiao Huihui has always been brave, but at this moment he was frightened and screamed loudly. Mu Huaixi got angry immediately when she saw his red wrist.
She handed the child to Ying Mingcheng and taunted her uncle and aunt, "If I remember correctly, we have already severed our relationship. Do you want to go to the Public Security Bureau to check the records?"
In order to prevent future troubles, Ying Mingcheng specifically asked Lao Wei to sign a severance agreement with the two of them. This should have been signed with the biological parents, but he was worried that the family would threaten him by raising Xiaoxi, so he prepared it in advance.
"Didn't uncle sign it very swiftly back then? Why did you forget it now?"
Uncle Mu's face flushed red, but he gritted his teeth and insisted, "Severing ties? I've raised you for so long, can you sever ties with just a piece of paper?"
"Why didn't you tell me when you signed it? Just this one letter of severance has saved you six months in prison. Now you want to establish a relationship, why don't you go to the Public Security Bureau first and renew it?"
When they thought of the pain they had suffered in those six months, both my uncle and aunt shuddered.
The eldest aunt's eyes could not leave her, lingering on the gold bracelet on her wrist and the gold earrings on her earlobes. In the end, greed overcame fear, "Xiao Xi, even if you don't recognize us, you have to repay the kindness of raising you back then, right? If this person doesn't repay the favor, he will take revenge on the child..."
Mu Huaixi was furious, but saw Ying Mingcheng stepped forward and grabbed his uncle's collar, "Shut your wife's mouth!"
"What are you doing! What are you doing!" The aunt rushed forward immediately. She knew that soldiers would not hit women, so she wanted to use her fat body to push Ying Mingcheng away.
Ying Mingcheng, however, was like a mountain, and no matter how she pushed him, he wouldn't budge. He said coldly, "If you do that again, I'll take you to the police station!"
Other words might not have been useful, but these words frightened my aunt.
She immediately let go, and after being scolded by her uncle, she remembered that the man in front of her was a soldier, not a military doctor, but was stopped by Mu Huaixi.
"Uncle, aunt, please don't bother."
"There are gods above us. If I'm going to take revenge, I'll take it from you first!"
"Are your daughters still in touch with you? Why can't I see Mu Huaimin? Does he no longer want to associate with you?"
Mu Huaixi was not talking nonsense. According to the personalities of Mu Zhao and Mu Huaimin, these two elders would have no money and no reputation after they were released. How could the profit-seeking children of the Mu family possibly support them?
These words really hit the aunt's throat. She burst into tears and sat on the ground, slapping her thighs. "Look at you, we raised you without any credit, but we worked hard! Just because we didn't find a good family for you, you sent your uncle and aunt to jail! Mu Huaixi, you have no conscience!"
Mu Huaixi remained unmoved. She grabbed Ying Mingcheng's hand and sneered, "Aunt, we don't have time to listen to your beating around the bush. The truth of the past is clear to all. If I had committed a crime, the police would have arrested me."
"You little bitch, you won't give in to any excuses!" Aunt Mu cursed inwardly, but on the surface she held on to Mu Huaixi's trouser legs tightly, begging, "Xiaoxi, Xiaoxi, please look at the past... no, please look at your grandfather's sake, please help us!"
"Your cousin was deceived. He was bewitched by the vixen in the guesthouse, got married, had children, and took them all to the vixen's home. Poor grandson of mine, he lost his grandparents when he was only two years old! I miss him so much!"
"Your cousin secretly showed it to us. The woman dragged him away, her hands on her hips, and cursed!"
"Your cousin, my eldest grandson is a good person! It's just that vixen. She doesn't let us see her grandson. She doesn't even recognize her mother-in-law and father-in-law."
"You said that this family has lost their conscience, really..."
The eldest aunt was in a state of singing and scolding her cousin-in-law, whom she had never met.
Mu Huaixi couldn't help but feel lucky that her third uncle had just taken the children away. If it was so dirty, even she would feel uncomfortable all over.
"Let's go." She pulled Ying Mingcheng and was about to leave. She really didn't want to spoil her aunt.
The eldest aunt rolled over, smearing her face with her grimy hands until it looked unrecognizable. She lay down in front of the two men and said, "I don't care. You have to find a job for your cousin. If he does, that vixen won't be able to control our eldest grandson. Just, go to the Public Security Bureau! Have your man take Huaimin to jail!"
"Oh." Mu Huaixi crossed her arms. Her aunt really treated her job like cabbage. She thought it was good enough to be in the Public Security Bureau. "That's impossible. You two have been in the police station before. There is no way the Public Security Bureau wants him."
Did he think she didn't know? Mu Huaimin must have been disgusted by the fact that the two of them couldn't find him a job, so he pushed his wife out and sent the couple away.
She shook her head and felt sad for her uncle's family who were scheming against each other.
The consequence of rejecting my uncle and aunt was that the next morning, a lot of smelly pig manure was thrown in front of my third uncle's house, and a skinny little girl was tied to the door.
Her third aunt pointed in the direction of her uncle's house and cursed, then sighed and carried the silly child in.
“What is this…?” Mu Huaixi was shocked. Could it be that his uncle and aunt had another child at this time?
Auntie San's expression was indescribable. "Alas, they suddenly brought the baby back from the city. They say it's your sister Mu Zhao's..."
"Huh?" Mu Huaixi's eyes widened. It turned out that not only was she beaten into a miscarriage by Zhang Laosan, but she also gave birth to a child with someone else while he was in prison!
"What a sin! Giving birth to a child and not raising it is such a sin!" Aunt San shook her head and coaxed the little girl into the kitchen to wash her face.
Mu Huaixi also felt that she had done something wrong. According to her Third Aunt, the baby should be almost two years old, about the same age as Xiao Heping, but he was shorter than a one-year-old child. His wrists were not as thick as bamboo sticks and he was very skinny.
"Does uncle often bring her here?" Mu Huaixi frowned. Instead of raising his own granddaughter, he gave her to his third uncle's family to raise. Isn't this just causing trouble?
"No," Third Aunt wiped the child's face and stuffed her with a small piece of egg white. Seeing her chewing it like a hamster, she sighed and said, "They can't even eat enough themselves, so how can they possibly feed the child? The villagers often see her outside catching insects and frogs to eat, so they give her a bite."
“Poor thing!”
Mu Huaixi was shocked by her third aunt's words and was in a trance the whole day.
Ying Mingcheng saw this and, before he put the two children to sleep that night, he asked her, "Do you want to take the little girl away?"
The poor child still doesn’t have a name, she is only called Niu Niu, just like the stray cats outside, who only have the name Mimi.
"I..." Mu Huaixi hesitated, "She is suffering a lot and may not be able to survive here."
Little girls without adult supervision in the village were actually in great danger. They might be married off in their teens, or even abused before they even reached marriageable age. She couldn't bear it.
But she is Mu Zhao's daughter.
"I'm afraid I'll end up like that farmer. I'm also afraid that if she learns bad things in the future, I'll think, 'Oh, she's really Mu Zhao's daughter.'"
Mu Huaixi smiled bitterly.
