When they returned to the Zhao family's home, Zhao Daqing, Cuihong and others had already eaten lunch and the main room was empty.
Zhao Qingsong was the only one still standing there in the yard, shivering.
Qian Chunhua pulled Zhao Qingsong over and said, "Let's go back to the house with Auntie."
Zhao Qingsong struggled for a while but failed to break free from Qian Chunhua's hand. This time Qian Chunhua was determined to pull Zhao Qingsong away.
At Qian Chunhua's insistence, Zhao Qingsong was taken to the west wing by Qian Chunhua, and Zhao Qingyun went to the room.
Zhao Qingfeng and Zhao Xiaoling were sleeping next door. Qian Chunhua went into the room pretending to get medicine, took out the disinfectant, anti-inflammatory drugs and cotton swabs in the space, and brought Zhao Qingsong to Zhao Qingyun's room.
"Aunt." Zhao Qingsong's lips were frozen purple.
"Qingsong, please sit down first. Auntie will apply the medicine to you first."
From the torn pieces of Zhao Qingsong's clothes, it could be seen that Zhao Qingsong had been severely beaten by Cuihong.
Qian Chunhua took off Zhao Qingsong's clothes and saw at a glance that Zhao Qingsong was covered with scars, some of which were from today and some from the past.
Broken skin, bloody wounds, and purple-blue marks were all over Qingsong's thin body.
There were dark, old wounds all over his body, and not a single piece of skin was left.
This is just an eight-year-old kid.
Qian Chunhua's heart was trembling. She had already seen that there was indeed a red birthmark the size of a copper coin on Zhao Qingsong's right waist.
Zhao Qingsong is his own child, and it was Cuihong who swapped the child for him.
Qian Chunhua suppressed her heartache, went to the kitchen to get some hot water, then found a clean towel from the living room and wiped Qingsong's body carefully and gently.
Qingsong clenched his teeth and tried hard to hold back his tears, tears of gratitude.
With his aunt, he experienced the love of his dreams.
Qingsong's arms and legs were covered with wounds, which made Qian Chunhua feel distressed. Zhao Yongcai and his original body were two fools. They raised other people's children healthy, but their own child suffered such a great suffering.
Qian Chunhua's hands were shaking and tears were in her eyes. She held back her heartache and wiped Zhao Qingsong's body clean.
"Aunt." Zhao Qingsong was confused by Qian Chunhua's unusual behavior.
"Child, does it hurt?"
Zhao Qingsong remained silent and did not say anything, but his red eyes betrayed him.
Past experience taught him that crying out in pain would only bring about more severe beatings, regardless of whether he cried out intentionally or not, and regardless of whether he could hold it in or not.
"You can scream if it hurts."
After wiping it clean, he carefully disinfected all the wounds and applied anti-inflammatory medicine.
Finally, he found a set of clean clothes of Zhao Qingyun's and changed Qingsong completely. Once Zhao Qingsong put on the warm jacket, his defenses were broken down again and he couldn't stop crying.
"Child, don't cry. I will protect you from now on." Qian Chunhua gently hugged Zhao Qingsong and patted the child's back.
Go find a suitable opportunity. Qian Chunhua didn't want to wait any longer. She would expose everything tonight. That bitch, Cuihong, should go to hell. Qian Chunhua regretted that she didn't act too lightly at noon.
After Zhao Qingsong put on his new clothes, Qian Chunhua found him a pair of cotton shoes.
When Zhao Qingsong's shoes were taken off, it was so cold and the child was not wearing socks. His feet were covered with frostbite, which had festered and was oozing yellow water.
Qian Chunhua couldn't hold back any longer and kept crying.
"Aunt." Zhao Qingsong shrank his feet. He didn't dare to put his feet into such thick shoes.
Qian Chunhua looked at Zhao Qingsong's feet. These frostbites would not heal in a short time. If he put on socks now, the pus that flowed out would stick to the socks, and it would be more painful when he took off his socks.
