Chapter 7 Falling into the Well



Chi Tang knew, of course, that saying nothing was the best option.

But thinking of the love her parents and brother had for her, Xiao Chitang couldn't help but nod, then stretched out her little paws and placed them on the back of her fifth brother's hand, babbling softly.

Brother Wu, it's okay, I'm here for you.

Chi Wuhu couldn't hold back his tears and hugged his sister, kissing her several times.

Perhaps she lost control of her strength in her excitement, because Chi Tang tried to hold back but couldn't, and finally burst into tears.

My face hurts so much!!!

Old Man Chi hurriedly snatched his daughter back and scolded his son, "What are you doing! Tangtang has delicate skin, you hurt her."

"I'm sorry, little sister, I was just too excited." Little Fifth Brother wiped away his tears sheepishly, still trembling slightly.

Aunt Chi quickly pulled her son onto the kang (a heated brick bed), gently stroking his back: "Good boy."

"Mother, it was my sister who saved me, it must have been my sister who saved me." Little Fifth Brother was still too young, and he was extremely excited after experiencing such a big thing.

Aunt Chi kept comforting him: "Xiao Wu, you must remember, this matter must be kept a secret from everyone, understand?"

Aside from the fact that Tangtang saved Xiaowu, which was somewhat unbelievable.

There's another crucial point.

Tiger is dead!

Although the two are unrelated, if word gets out and people find out, there will always be some scoundrels who will try to pin the blame on their family.

They say Tiger died in place of Xiao Wu!

So this matter must absolutely not be told to anyone!

Fortunately, Xiao Wu is a smart child. After calming down, he realized what was going on and nodded vigorously.

Then tell your parents:

"Father, Mother, I will be good to my sister for the rest of my life."

"Of course, she's your sister," Aunt Chi said with a gentle smile.

After a while, Little Fifth Brother said, "Mom, I... I want to go see Tiger off..."

They really are childhood friends who grew up together.

But this kind of thing...

"Xiao Wu, if you want, I'll have your dad go with you tomorrow." Aunt Chi never made arbitrary decisions or disregarded her children's opinions when it came to educating them.

Xiao Wu nodded.

Dinner was ready in no time, all cooked by Sister-in-law Chi herself.

However, the steamed egg custard was made by Sister-in-law Chi, because Aunt Chi no longer trusted Sister-in-law Chi!

"Eldest daughter-in-law, please share this small bowl of steamed egg custard with everyone."

As soon as Aunt Chi finished speaking, the children cheered with joy.

Even the adults couldn't help but feel happy.

It's an egg, after all.

Sister-in-law Chi first divided the food among the children and men, then gave a lot to her mother-in-law. In the end, there were only two spoonfuls left, which were for Sister-in-law Chi and Sister-in-law Chi San.

"This is too little, sister-in-law..."

"Eldest daughter-in-law, you can eat the rest. There's no need to share with the third daughter-in-law," Aunt Chi said bluntly.

The so-called tormenting of the daughter-in-law.

Naturally, this meant she had to do a lot of work, eat little, and was also bullied and verbally abused.

Third Sister-in-law Chi was dumbfounded. "Mother, why won't you give it to me?"

"You want to eat eggs? If you want to eat eggs, go ask your great-aunt for them. Didn't you go and tell her that we have eggs at home?" Aunt Chi's tone was icy.

Chi Sansao's great-aunt was Zhou Shi.

When the topic of eggs came up, Sister-in-law Chi gave an embarrassed smile: "Mother, it wasn't me who said that, it was..."

"If you want to eat, then eat; if you don't want to eat at my house, then get out!"

"...Mom, don't be angry, I won't eat steamed egg custard."

Chi Sansao gave in, but unwillingly sat down. She glanced at Chi Sanhe, who was eating steamed egg custard with relish, and her anger flared up. She couldn't help but pinch Chi Sanhe!

Is this guy dead?

"Ouch! Why are you pinching me?" Chi Sanhe cried out in pain, questioning his wife with dissatisfaction.

The world is vast, but comfort and good food are the most important!

Even the wife has to step aside!

Chi Sansao was immediately embarrassed. Hearing her mother-in-law's cold snort, she lowered her head even further.

Damn it!

After the meal, Sister-in-law Chi took the initiative to clean up the dishes and chopsticks by herself, and then boiled water for the whole family to wash their feet.

Since her mother-in-law is going to discipline her, and she'll have to do all the chores anyway, she might as well take the initiative and let her mother-in-law calm down.

What Chi San Sao didn't expect was that for half a month in a row, she was the only one who did all the cooking, washing clothes, cleaning the house, and tending the vegetable garden!

Later, unable to bear it any longer, I made an excuse to go back to my parents' home and quickly slipped away!

Aunt Chi didn't interfere; she let her go back if she wanted.

The sun was shining brightly that day. Although Aunt Chi was still in her postpartum period, little Chi Tang could be taken out to bask in the sun.

After waking up from his afternoon nap, Little Fifth Brother hugged his younger sister under the big tree in the yard.

Suddenly, Chi Tang stared at the well next to her, feeling as if there was something inside it.

She couldn't quite explain the feeling, but she felt it must be a good thing, so she pointed at the well and started shouting "Ah ah!"

Luckily, it was Little Fifth Brother who carried her, and he actually carried her to the well!

No other adult in the family would ever do that.

"Ah!" Chi Tang cried out anxiously.

Little Fifth Brother asked her, "Does Tangtang want her brother to see what's inside the well?"

Chi Tang nodded.

Little Fifth Brother is so smart!

Chi Wuhu then placed Chi Tang on the ground, lay down by the well, and craned his neck to look inside.

I could vaguely see something.

Chi Wuhu leaned even deeper inside, trying to get a better look.

Lying on the ground, Chi Tang gradually realized something was wrong. Most of Xiao Wu's body was in the well, and his feet were off the ground!
