Because that's exactly what his mother thought!
His mother knew that Xuancao was soft-hearted, and she assured them that as long as they could bring Xuancao home, she would be able to persuade Xuancao to come back and continue to serve the family like a slave!
But.
But the father and son didn't think that way!
The father and son followed Qin Yuzhu's advice and wanted to weld Xuancao to the Zhao family!
"Xuancao, you're overthinking it!"
Zhao Tengfei looked at Xuancao with a sorrowful expression and said, "Our mother isn't that kind of person. She just simply wanted to see you."
"She's not my mom!"
Upon hearing this, Xuancao coldly replied, "We spent eighteen years together, and she raised me when I was young. However, I have already repaid her kindness by serving her like a slave for so many years!"
"The debt of gratitude has been repaid. Between her and me, only old grudges remain. There is really no need for us to meet again!"
"If she simply wants to see me, then you could pass on a message to her for me, saying..."
"With death, debts are settled. My grudges with her are now cleared!"
The sound falls.
Xuancao turned around and headed home.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Tengfei exclaimed: "!!!"
He rushed forward anxiously, wanting to coax Xuancao again, but was stopped by Qin Weiguo and Qin Xiangdong, who had realized what was happening.
"Daylily! Daylily, don't go!"
"What do you mean by 'death erases debts'? How can you be so heartless?"
"..."
Undeterred, Zhao Tengfei continued shouting.
Yu Mingxiang watched her daughter return home, then turned and sneered at Zhao Tengfei.
"Get out!"
She said coldly, "Gu Guanhai is still recuperating at my house. Your shouting has disturbed his rest and attracted the old village chief and the others. You're definitely going to get what's coming to you!"
Zhao Tengfei exclaimed upon hearing this: "!!!"
His expression changed, and he quickly stopped talking.
Gu Guanhai...
That's their nemesis!
Anyone who gets involved with him is bound to suffer misfortune!
Zhao Tengfei was truly afraid of Gu Guanhai, but...
His mother was really on her last breath.
He was really unwilling to give up like this.
He watched as the Qin family's gate slammed shut in front of him.
Zhao Tengfei stomped his foot in anger and had no choice but to go home first.
The Zhao family.
Li Guihua lay on the bed, barely alive.
Zhao Tiezhu paced back and forth, keeping an eye on the movements at the door.
"Yuzhu, do you think Xuancao will really come back?"
He turned to look at Qin Yuzhu, who was huddled in the corner of the kang (a heated brick bed), and said, "There's absolutely no food left in the house. If Xuancao doesn't come back, I'll have to trade you for food!"
Qin Yuzhu exclaimed upon hearing this: "!!!"
She flinched, then gritted her teeth and said, "She will come back! She's suffered terribly here. She hates you all, so much so that her mind is twisted and warped. Even if it's just to see your miserable state, or to gloat, she will come back!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Tiezhu frowned. "She hates us? We raised her with such care and hardship, why should that slut hate us?"
Qin Yuzhu: ...
Too lazy to argue with him about those irrelevant things, she just kept instructing him: "When she comes, just do as I say. As long as you can keep Xuancao in the Zhao family, given that bitch Yu Mingxiang's guilt and desire to make amends, she will definitely support Xuancao unconditionally!"
"Then, we'll have everything we need for food and drink!"
"If we control Xuancao, the entire Qin family will be ours, and Yu Mingxiang and the others will have to be our slaves!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Tiezhu's eyes flashed with a sharp light.
According to Qin Yuzhu's plan, as long as her son defiled Xuancao, Xuancao would have no choice but to stay in the Zhao family and become their daughter-in-law. But...
Qin Yuzhu arrived at the house late and had no idea that her son was dying!
so.
This is something only he, as the father, can handle!
Zhao Tiezhu thought of Xuancao's small, palm-sized face, and his cloudy old eyes were filled with lewdness.
He had been coveting the daylily for a long time, but he had been unable to do so due to Gu Guanhai's intimidation!
Now, Gu Guanhai is injured again!
His opportunity has arrived, hasn't it?
