The recipient was Qin Feiyang, and it was a thick stack of money.

However, both Qin Hanshu and Qin Feiyang guessed who the letter was actually written to.

Qin Feiyang hadn't opened the letter yet, and asked Qin Hanshu hesitantly: "Do you... want to read it? Or should I read it to you?"

Qin Hanshu took the letter directly and said indifferently: "I'll read it myself."

Qin Feiyang warned worriedly: "If she says something unpleasant, don't get angry."

Qin Hanshu smiled and said, "I won't."

Ever since Qin Feiyang joined the army, he has only been communicating with Qin Hanshu. The two would greet each other through Qin Hanshu, but they have never contacted each other directly.

This time when Yang Aizheng wrote to Qin Feiyang, she really started by asking about Qin Hanshu.

Yang Aizheng began with the death of Hu Dayong and narrated her miserable life over the past year.

She was coaxed and deceived by Old Lady Hu into moving her household registration to the countryside of Daxing. However, once the household registration was moved, Old Lady Hu instantly changed her attitude and treated her even more harshly than when Hu Dayong was around.

In the morning, she would be called by Mrs. Hu to work before dawn, feeding pigs and chickens, cooking and washing clothes. Not only did she have to do housework, she also had to work in the fields to earn work points.

Yang Aizhen is busy from morning till night, without a moment's rest, and only sleeps four or five hours a day...

It’s not that she hasn’t thought about returning to the city.

But first of all, once the household registration has been moved, it is difficult to move it back.

Secondly, Old Lady Hu was watching her closely, and if she found out that she was trying to run away, she would beat her with a stick.

After being beaten several times, Yang Aizheng became afraid. Even if she had the chance to run, she didn't dare to take a single step.

At this time, Yang Aizheng thought of her biological daughter.

She hoped Qin Hanshu would pick her up.

Yang Aizheng took great pains to save up some money for stamps and sent a letter to the place where Qin Hanshu was working in the countryside.

Because she forgot the exact address, she only sent the letter to the county's Youth League Office.

Yang Aizhen didn't know that Qin Hanshu had married and joined the army. She wrote to Qin Feiyang only after her letter was returned.

In the letter, Yang Aizheng asked Qin Feiyang if he knew what Qin Hanshu's situation was, and asked Qin Feiyang to help her contact Qin Hanshu as soon as possible so that Qin Hanshu could save her from the dire situation.

She is dying.

The statement of dying is certainly an exaggeration, but judging from the bitter words Yang Aizheng complained about, her life was indeed like that of an ox or a horse.

Qin Hanshu read the letter quickly and handed it to Qin Feiyang, asking him to read it too.

After a while, Qin Feiyang looked at her and was relieved to see that she looked calm.

"Xiao Shu, what do you think?"

Qin Hanshu snorted indifferently, "Write her back and say you know nothing. Don't mention my recent situation."

What this means is that you don't care about Yang Aizhen at all.

Thinking of what Qin Hanshu had gone through, Qin Feiyang could no longer feel any sympathy for Yang Aizheng.

The considerate and virtuous aunt has long since existed only in memory.

Qin Feiyang nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

***

"Grandma, give me fifty cents. I want to go out and play." After dinner, Hu Bingbing wiped his mouth and asked Grandma Hu for money.

Soon after returning to the countryside, Hu Bingbing was seduced into playing cards. How could he be good at playing cards? He was just giving money away for free.

Old Mrs. Hu tried to intervene, but it was useless. If she didn't follow Hu Bingbing's words, Hu Bingbing's temper would come out.

Old Mrs. Hu had no choice but to go along with it.

Fortunately, each time she lost only two or three cents, or thirty or five cents, so Mrs. Hu didn't take it too seriously.

Although her son is dead, the salary he gave her over the years is still there, enough for her to support herself in her old age and to find a wife for Hu Bingbing.

Seeing that Old Lady Hu was in a good mood at the moment, Yang Aizheng nervously made a request.

"Mom, can I not go out today? I'm... I'm feeling uncomfortable."

"No!" Old Mrs. Hu was furious and cursed, "What do you mean you feel uncomfortable? That's a symptom only young girls have! You're over 40, and your children are already that big. You're trying to be lazy by using this as an excuse. Do you have any shame?!"

Yang Aizhen felt aggrieved, but she didn't lie.

When she lived in the city, she had always been in good health, even when she was a girl.

But I have been tortured by Mrs. Hu during this period...

Yang Aizhen continued to beg.

Old Lady Hu glared at Yang Aizheng fiercely, "Mr. Yang, do you think you can get rid of me by sending a letter to your daughter?"

Old Mrs. Hu snorted coldly: "Even if your daughter receives the letter, she may not come to pick you up."

"Mom, how did you know I sent the letter..." Yang Aizheng was a little frightened, but she felt relieved when she saw that Old Lady Hu didn't want to hit her for this.

As for what Old Lady Hu said, Qin Hanshu would not come to pick her up, she did not believe it.

Her daughter has been sensible since she was young, so how could she just watch her own mother suffer?

However, Qin Hanshu didn’t know what had happened, as he was not in the place where he was cut in line.

I hope to get news about Qin Hanshu from Qin Feiyang. If not, I believe Qin Feiyang will come back after learning about his aunt's situation.

As if she could see what Yang Aizheng was thinking, Old Lady Hu rolled her eyes.

"I advise you to give up as soon as possible. Don't you think about what you have done to your own daughter? How dare you expect others to take care of you!"

"If I were your daughter, I would never see you again in my life!"
