As soon as Hua Li got home, she started making braised pork belly, with Luo Shicheng helping out. Luo Yan, bored by herself, practiced throwing sandbags in the yard.
After practicing for a short while, I suddenly heard the sound of an engine outside the door, followed by someone knocking on the door.
Luo Yan ran over and opened the door; Xiao Xiu and Chen Yuanshan were standing outside.
Chen Yuanshan sniffed the fragrance in the air, patted Luo Yan's head, and told her to take a short rest.
"Tell Uncle Luo and Aunt Hua that once the meat is cooked, we'll head over to Grandpa Sun's house and bring them some food as well."
After a short rest, Chen Yuanshan got into the car and left.
Luo Yan and Xiao Xiu closed the courtyard gate. Luo Yan patted Xiao Xiu, and Xiao Xiu said...
"All of his injuries have healed, and so has Grandpa Xu's. The doctor told him to go home."
Luo Yan was relieved and pulled Xiao Xiu into the house.
When Hua Li saw Xiao Xiu, she put down the spatula and came over to hug Xiao Xiu.
"Aunt Hua is making meat today, so eat more during your short rest and get well soon."
Xiao Xiu nodded and lifted her clothes to show Hua Li.
All the small wounds on my body have scabbed over and fallen off, and the more serious ones have all healed; I'm practically completely recovered.
Hua Li happily cupped Xiao Xiu's little face and gave him a big kiss. "My Xiao Xiu is so brave. Aunt Hua wants to thank Xiao Xiu properly."
Xiao Xiu blushed with embarrassment, but couldn't help but smile.
Bang bang bang! Loud banging came from outside the door, followed by Mo Sanshan's desperate wailing.
Luo Shicheng told Hua Li to take the children and not come out, and went to open the door himself.
With tears streaming down his face, Mo Sanshan grabbed Luo Shicheng's hand as soon as he saw him, crying and pointing to his own home while shouting.
"Uncle Luo, help! My mother is going to kill my brother and my sister."
Luo Shicheng was taken aback. He went back and called Hua Li out. As soon as Hua Li left, Luo Shicheng immediately bolted the door.
Worried that something might happen to Luo Shicheng, Hua Li simmered the meat over a low flame and then stood under the courtyard wall listening.
Wu Cuihua, holding a knife, cornered the two children and called for Mo Shuanghua to come over, her eyes bloodshot.
Mo Yitian shielded Mo Shuanghua behind him, his face turning pale with fright, but he refused to back down an inch.
"Mom, what does it have to do with Shuanghua that my cousin can't afford the bride price? Shuanghua is still studying and can't get married yet. You should leave now."
"She's my daughter, so I want her to marry, and she has to marry. If you try to stop me, I'll chop you up."
With tears streaming down her face, Mo Shuanghua pushed Mo Yitian away, saying, "Brother, you're a good student and have a bright future ahead of you. Don't let me ruin your life. Just let me go with her."
"no……"
Mo Yitian used his frail body to protect his younger sister.
"Don't even mention that you're not old enough to get married yet. Even if you were, she wouldn't find you a good family. I'd rather die than let you go with her."
"Brother!" Mo Shuanghua cried anxiously, "Dad's not home, you can't protect me, I don't want anything to happen to you..."
Wu Cuihua sneered, "If you don't come over here, I'll kill your brother first and then the third brother, so you'll be burdened with the stigma of causing your brothers' deaths and never be able to hold your head up again."
Mo Shuanghua was terrified. She desperately pushed Mo Yitian away and rushed forward to snatch the knife from Wu Cuihua's hand.
The mother and daughter started fighting.
Driven to desperation, Mo Shuanghua's strength became frightening, and Wu Cuihua was unable to withstand it. Gritting her teeth, she gripped the knife hilt with both hands and stabbed Mo Shuanghua fiercely.
"Shuanghua!" Mo Yitian's eyes widened in fury as he reached for the sharp blade with his bare hands.
"Brother, stop!" Mo Shuanghua, who was pinned down by Wu Cuihua, shouted, "If he really grabs me, Mo Yitian's hands will be ruined."
Just a second before Mo Yitian was about to grab the blade, a flying kick sent the knife flying out of Wu Cuihua's hand.
Luo Shicheng stepped forward, grabbed Wu Cuihua by the collar, lifted her up, and threw her out the door. He then reached out and pulled Mo Shuanghua up.
Mo Yitian helped the still-shaken Mo Shuanghua up and thanked her repeatedly.
Luo Shicheng waved his hand and asked the two children if they were hurt anywhere.
Both Mo Yitian and Mo Shuanghua said no.
Mo Sanshan, shivering, rushed into Mo Yitian's arms, and the three children hugged each other and cried together.
Mo Xian has gone on a mission, and Luo Shicheng is determined to see this matter through to the end. Just as he was about to go and capture Wu Cuihua, he suddenly heard a scream from next door.
Oh no, it's Hua Li!
Luo Shicheng rushed out of the house and leaped onto the wall...
Wu Cuihua hated Luo Shicheng's family for ruining her plans several times. She was thrown to the ground by Luo Shicheng, picked up a knife, climbed a ladder, and jumped down the courtyard wall, where she happened to come face to face with Hua Li, who was standing under the wall listening to the commotion.
Hua Li screamed when she saw the knife in Wu Cuihua's hand and turned to run away, but Wu Cuihua grabbed her hair and raised the knife to slash at Hua Li's face. However, a small hand reached out from the air and crushed her wrist bone, and the knife fell to the ground with a thud.
Luo Yan released Wu Cuihua's wrist and kicked Wu Cuihua in the stomach, causing Wu Cuihua to stumble back a few steps and fall to the ground.
Luo Shicheng jumped down from the wall, picked up the man, dragged him out the door, and headed straight for the guard post at the entrance of the compound.
After handing the man over to the guard captain, Luo Shicheng gave the order.
"Find out how she got in here, or you'll all have to go home and farm."
Someone stepped forward to identify her, saying, "She had a military dependent's certificate, and we checked it and found no problems, so we let her go."
What's wrong with Lao Mo? They're divorced, why hasn't he taken back his military dependent's certificate yet?
Luo Shicheng kicked Wu Cuihua, who was lying on the ground pretending to be dead.
"Hand over your military dependent certificate."
Wu Cuihua raised her swollen wrist and lay on the ground, acting like a spoiled child, shouting, "Help! Someone's hitting me! Help!"
The best solution for this kind of unreasonable behavior, which relies on their former status as a military family member, is to hand them over to the police station. Luo Shicheng simply had his guard call the police.
For stabbing someone and insulting a soldier, Wu Cuihua was directly detained, and her military dependent certificate was confiscated.
When Luo Shicheng returned, Hua Li was with Luo Yan and Xiao Xiu keeping the three Mo family children company.
Upon hearing Luo Shicheng call her, Hua Li took the two little ones home.
After the meat was cooked, Hua Lisheng came out and asked Luo Shicheng to take Luo Yan and Xiao Xiu to the East Courtyard to eat, while he stayed behind to take care of the three frightened children from the Mo family.
Luo Shicheng simply took the three Mo children with him to the East Courtyard.
Sun Bailing was not at all unhappy with Luo Shicheng's unauthorized decision. After asking the three children if they had eaten, he asked Aunt Shi to cut two plates of watermelon for them.
Standing in the spacious and bright living room, the three children were so shy that they didn't even dare to sit down. Aunt Shi had no choice but to take them to the grape trellis in the yard with a watermelon.
Aunt Shi had the three children sit on the stone benches under the grape trellis. She then placed the watermelon on the stone table, picked it up, and stuffed it into the children's hands before they were willing to eat it.
After finishing the watermelon, Mo Yitian noticed a lot of small shards of glass on the ground in the yard. He took the initiative to lead his younger siblings to carefully sweep them clean.
Aunt Shi saw this and went into the living room to whisper to Sun Bailing.
Sun Bailing looked through the newly replaced steel window and, after a moment of silence, instructed Aunt Shi to prepare a guest room for the three children to stay until Mo Xian returned home.
Then Sun Bailing added, "Clean up that sunny guest room on the second floor for Hua Li and Yan Yan to stay in, so that they won't be scared when Luo Shicheng isn't home and there's no one next door."
Luo Shicheng heard this and did not object. Hua Li wanted to refuse, but Luo Shicheng grabbed her hand and squeezed it, telling her not to refuse.
