Such a loud noise naturally reached Ye Yun's ears inside the house.
Ye Yun knew what had happened just by hearing the noise, but she was too lazy to pay attention. Even though Li Xiuying was protecting her, she did not feel any warmth of being protected.
It wasn't her that Li Xiuying was defending.
Rather, it is the benefits that the power in her and Qin Zheng’s hands can bring her.
Xiao Chuqi's sleep was a little uneasy because of the noise outside. Every time she heard a slap outside, she would move uncomfortably, and there were vague signs that she was woken up.
Ye Yun raised her hand and closed the window, blocking out most of the noise outside.
Qin Xiang'e and Qin Zheng were also talking outside.
When Qin Zheng found out that Li Xiuying was fighting with others, he wanted to go out and chase them away.
If Li Xiuying continues beating like this, it will not only be embarrassing, but it will also cause trouble for Ye Yun and the children.
But before he could walk out, he was stopped by Qin Xiang'e, who was afraid that Li Xiuying would blame him again if he showed up.
Qin Zheng felt extremely annoyed.
He agreed to let Ye Yun go home to recuperate after giving birth in order to quell the rumors in the village, and he also thought that according to custom they should hold the wedding banquet in their hometown, not come back to let others cause trouble for him. Didn't Li Xiuying make such a fuss at the door of his house, not make things worse?
"Zhengzi, anyone can go out, but you can't." Qin Xiang'e pulled him and advised earnestly.
Qin Zheng glanced down the slope.
This glance stunned him.
The woman who was wrestling with someone at the bottom of the slope had her hair torn into a mess, her mouth bleeding, her clothes torn and covered with mud and small stones. She looked in a miserable state, without any trace of her former domineering appearance.
As far as I can remember, this seemed to be the first time Li Xiuying fought with someone to protect him.
This is also the first time I defend him.
Qin Zheng even had a look of disbelief in his eyes. Li Xiuying, who had always been harsh on him, actually had times when she defended him.
To be precise, will there be a day when he will be protected by Li Xiuying?
Moreover, because of defending him, Li Xiuying was beaten black and blue, completely disregarding her image, as if the other party was not scolding him as a person, but digging up Li Xiuying's ancestral grave.
It has to be said that Qin Zheng's mood underwent some subtle changes at this moment.
After all, he is not a stone.
Even though he had severed his relationship with Li Xiuying, he couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable when he saw Li Xiuying being beaten black and blue for him.
“Woof…”
Meiqiu walked to Qin Zheng and called out softly in his usual rough voice.
Qin Zheng came back to his senses.
Looking at Li Xiuying who was fighting with others at the bottom of the slope, he came up with an idea. He patted Meiqiu's neck and raised his hand to make a gesture.
“Woof woof woof—”
As if coal ball had received an order, it leaped over the fence gate with its agile body and rushed towards the two people fighting on the ground like a beast!
"ah!"
The dog's appearance immediately caused panic.
The adults fled, and the children also ran away. Some women holding their children ran and screamed, mixed with Coal Ball's fierce and angry whimpers.
Li Xiuying also screamed when she saw the dog.
She was most afraid of the dog in Lao Qin's family and was almost bitten by it before.
The woman who was fighting with her was even more frightened. She screamed, pushed Li Xiuying away, and ran back to where she came from in a panic!
Li Xiuying was pushed down and tried to get up but couldn't. She saw the coal balls rushing towards her.
I was so scared that I closed my eyes tightly.
"Coal balls!" Just then, a call came from the top of the slope.
thump!
Coal Ball's body came to an abrupt stop and braked suddenly one meter away from Li Xiuying. The brakes were so sudden that its claws made a loud noise.
Seeing Qin Zheng waving at him on the slope, it immediately wagged its tail and turned to pounce on Qin Zheng.
The puppy jumped into Qin Zheng's arms, stood up and clung to Qin Zheng's body, its tail wagging excitedly. It licked Qin Zheng's hand, nodded its head, stuck out its tongue and smiled at Qin Zheng, its dark pupils full of loyalty.
Qin Zheng patted its head and said with a smile, "Good dog."
Meiqiu suddenly became more excited.
Then Qin Zheng pulled it off his body, turned around, and walked into the yard without looking back.
Only Li Xiuying was left at the bottom of the slope.
Covered in mud, with a bruised face and nose, she sat on the ground alone in a daze, the cold winter wind blowing straight through her torn cotton jacket into her body.
She raised her head and looked up the slope.
All I saw was a tightly closed fence gate.
Her son didn't say a word to her and was probably still blaming her for fighting in front of his door.
It took a long while before Li Xiuying got up.
Because of the fight, she was limping and was about to go back to Lao Guo's house when she suddenly remembered, where are her eggs and brown sugar?
She immediately perked up and started looking around at the bottom of the slope.
But, I can’t find it!
Li Xiuying collapsed.
In the cold wind, she stamped her feet in anger and shouted angrily: "God damn it! Which son of a bitch took my eggs and brown sugar away!"
…
In the evening, Ye Yun drank the egg tea that Qin Zheng had just prepared for her and felt that the eggs were different from the ones she usually ate.
"Qin Zheng, where did this egg come from?"
“Given by the villagers.”
Qin Zheng answered quickly.
Ye Yun raised her eyebrows, "Don't bluff me, this is a pheasant egg. The color of the yolk alone is different. It's hard to find pheasant eggs in the winter. Who would give us such a precious thing for no reason?"
Qin Zheng chuckled, touched the back of his head and said, "Wife, you've seen through me again."
