Chapter 66 066 Getting Beaten Up
Qin Ye entered the courtyard with a dark expression, and Qin Aiguo, who was sitting under the eaves of the house smoking, immediately looked at him.
"What's wrong? You look so bad?"
Qin Aiguo glanced at the basket in Qin Ye's hand.
Did they not catch the rabbit?
No way, didn't my eldest granddaughter say she caught seven?
Did he mishear?
Qin Aiguo leaned closer to the door, still puzzled, to listen to his wife and granddaughter talking inside.
It's quite clear!
Qin Ye let out a long breath, walked over and sat down next to Qin Aiguo, and told Qin Aiguo about Qin Xiaoxiao running around.
It's not that he likes to tattle, but he's afraid that Qin Xiaoxiao won't take it seriously and will run around again next time. What if something happens?
His sister doesn't listen to him, but she has to listen to her grandfather, right?
After listening, Qin Aiguo glared at Qin Ye and said, "She was wrong, and you were wrong too. You shouldn't have let her leave your sight."
Qin Ye did not refute, feeling that he had indeed failed in his duty and had not taken good care of his sister.
After a while, when he heard the noise inside the house subside, Qin Aiguo said, "Keep a close eye on your sister next time. You should talk to your grandma about this."
Qin Ye was stunned, feeling a chill run down his spine, but since the old man wouldn't help him, he could only nod helplessly.
Inside the house, Qin Xiaoxiao felt it wasn't safe to praise Qin Ye, so to avoid getting beaten up, she decided to praise the old lady instead.
Flattery will get you everywhere, and you can't go wrong with it, right?
She was eloquent; her praise of the old lady was subtle yet delightful.
for example.
"Grandma, look at how tall I am now. Do you think I can still grow taller?"
"You're already eighteen, what's there to grow?"
Grandma Qin realized something was wrong; she feared her words had hurt her granddaughter's feelings, so she quickly tried to make amends.
"You're not short. Look at Grandma, she's not even as tall as you."
Look at the girls in the village, which one is as tall as you?
"Now that I'm the perfect height, it'll be easy to find a partner."
Qin Xiaoxiao hugged Old Mrs. Qin's arm and shook it.
"Grandma is right. I'm not short. It's all thanks to my dad's height. Grandma is really good at giving birth."
Grandma Qin was delighted to hear this and nodded happily.
For example, "Grandma, do I look a bit too fair-skinned?"
Grandma Qin looked at Qin Xiaoxiao and examined her carefully for a long time. "Hmm, she is fair-skinned."
What's so white about it? Running around in the fields all day, how white can it get?
I can't hurt my granddaughter's feelings. If she says it's true, then it's true, whether she says it or not.
No, my granddaughter used to be quite fair-skinned, but it was an unhealthy paleness. Even if she ran around in the fields all day, she wouldn't have gotten this dark in just one month.
Could it be that what the granddaughter said about her health being better is true?
Grandma Qin had her doubts, so she didn't pay much attention to Qin Xiaoxiao.
Qin Xiaoxiao glanced at Old Madam Qin guiltily, "I think I inherited my mother's fair skin, she has a cool-toned fair complexion."
Grandma Qin didn't understand what "cold white skin" meant, but she recognized it when her granddaughter praised her.
Grandma Qin was even happier and pulled Qin Xiaoxiao to tell her stories from the past. For example, she was the most beautiful girl in their village, and back then, so many people came to her house to propose marriage that they could wear down the threshold.
Seeing that Grandma Qin was in a good mood and even brought up her love story from when she was young, Qin Xiaoxiao felt that even if her grandma knew that she had run away, she wouldn't have the heart to scold her. Her heart finally settled down.
But she let her guard down too soon. As soon as Qin Ye entered the house, he told her about how Qin Xiaoxiao had been disobedient and run away after going up the mountain, and how he had searched for her for a long time before finally finding her.
When Grandma Qin heard that her granddaughter had run away on the mountain, specifically Cat Ear Mountain, she was furious and turned around to search for her on the kang (a heated brick bed).
Seeing that things were not going well, Qin Lai turned and ran.
Qin Xiaoxiao didn't have that sense of crisis yet. She was so angry that she complained to Qin Ye and Qin Laotai that she was just a step too late, and Qin Laotai's broom hit her on the back.
Qin Xiaoxiao was suddenly hit and immediately cried out in pain.
"Ouch, Grandma, be gentle, you're hurting me."
Qin Xiaoxiao knew things were going badly, so she quickly got off the ground and ran outside, without even having time to put on her shoes.
Despite having bound feet decades ago, Old Mrs. Qin was surprisingly fast and quickly followed after him.
"Stop right there! You dare to run?"
"Qin Xiaoxiao, if you don't stop right now, I'll get angry!"
Qin Xiaoxiao didn't stop and rushed straight towards Qin Ye, who was standing in the corner of the courtyard.
Qin Ye, who didn't dare run out of the yard and was preparing to stand in the corner to watch the commotion, was speechless.
Girl, you can't be this cruel to your brother.
With such a big yard, where else could you run off to? Why did you have to hide here?
Seeing Qin Xiaoxiao running towards him, Qin Ye turned around and ran again without thinking.
Seeing that Qin Ye had run away and refused to protect her, Qin Xiaoxiao quickly quickened her pace and chased after him.
"Brother, wait for me, don't you want me anymore?"
"Slow down, don't rush, or you'll fall again."
Wait my ass! Can't you see how angry Grandma is? Are you treating the broom in her hand like a toy?
Grandma Qin chased after her with a broom, saying, "Qin Xiaoxiao, are you trying to drive me crazy? I told you so many times not to leave your brother, but you wouldn't listen. Now look what happened, you almost got lost."
"Qin Xiaoxiao, stand right there! Old man, grab her! And Qin Ye, don't let him get away either!"
Qin Aiguo, who was sitting under the eaves watching the commotion, had no choice but to put away his pipe and stand up when his wife called on him. He looked up at his two grandchildren running around in the yard.
The moment Qin Aiguo looked at Qin Xiaoxiao, Qin Xiaoxiao clearly felt a chill rush from the soles of her feet to the top of her head, as if her spinal cord was about to freeze.
Qin Xiaoxiao looked at Qin Aiguo in shock. Just that one glance almost made her wet herself.
My goodness!
What kind of look is that from her grandfather? It's terrifying!
Qin Xiaoxiao was unlucky; she only glanced at Qin Aiguo once, and that one glance was enough to make her eyes meet Qin Aiguo's.
His dark eyes were like a deep, ancient pool, so deep that the bottom was unseen. A storm seemed to be brewing within, and one could easily be swept into it.
Qin Xiaoxiao sensed no murderous intent in Qin Aiguo's eyes, but she felt that Qin Aiguo was extremely terrifying at this moment. If she dared to move again, even from a distance, he could kill her with a single blow.
Qin Xiaoxiao braked suddenly and obediently stopped in place.
Qin Xiaoxiao's hidden sense of crisis finally kicked in. She stared at Qin Aiguo with her whole body tense, but an ingratiating smile unconsciously appeared on her face.
You can't hit a smiling face; a smile is the right thing to do.
Qin Ye had stopped moving the moment Qin Aiguo stood up, standing at attention obediently. His usually gentle and smiling face had become expressionless, as serious as could be.
Seeing his grandchildren standing there motionless, Qin Aiguo's expression changed again, his serious face transforming into a silly, adorable look as he smiled at Old Mrs. Qin.
The two faces were drastically different; Qin Xiaoxiao was completely dumbfounded when she saw her wife and grandchildren, as they were completely different.
"Alright, they're standing there now, go ahead and hit them."
After saying that, Qin Aiguo slowly sat back down, took out his pipe and continued smoking.
Qin Xiaoxiao still didn't escape the beating, even though she praised Old Madam Qin to the skies, she still got a beating just as bad as Qin Ye.
