Chapter 132 Thunderstruck
Qiaoxiu was oblivious to hunger and thirst; she would eat and drink whatever was given to her.
After she drank the sedative and fell into a deep sleep, Lu Qingqing called Chen Cuihua over.
After giving her instructions, she took out a silver needle and inserted it half an inch diagonally to Qiaoxiu's Baihui acupoint.
This left her in a state between unconsciousness and wakefulness, in a semi-conscious state where she couldn't distinguish between reality and dreams.
Then, following Lu Qingqing's instructions, Chen Cuihua began to recall things before Qiaoxiu fell ill.
"Xiuer, it's time to get up and go cut pig feed with your mother."
"Hmph..." Qiaoxiu snorted.
Chen Cuihua continued, "Xiuer, you carry the small basket, and I'll carry the big basket."
"Xiuer, you don't need to go to the fields with your mother tomorrow. Take a day off..."
"Xiuer..."
"Xiuer..."
"Xiuer, what's wrong with you? You're getting lazier and lazier! Get up and go cut pig feed! Mother is going to the next village to prepare a feast for someone!"
Chen Cuihua's voice began to sound impatient and annoyed.
Qiaoxiu began to tremble and cry.
He spoke up: "Mother, Mother, I want to follow you..."
"Why are you following me? Who will do the housework!"
In the process of recalling this, Chen Cuihua finally realized: she was ordering her youngest daughter to do this and that, but what were her two sons, who were so much older than her, doing at the time?
Are you running wild across the mountains and fields, or hiding at home and sleeping soundly?
It turns out she owed her daughter so much!
She even had the nerve to call her unfilial!
Looking at Lu Qingqing's angry eyes, Chen Cuihua wished she could slap herself.
But she didn't slap herself then; instead, she almost slapped herself to death later.
"Mother...Second brother...Second brother bullied me..."
Lu Qingqing's eyes sharpened, but she immediately asked in a soft voice, "How did he bully you? Don't be afraid, Mother will beat him up for you!"
Chen Cuihua had never said such a thing.
Qiaoxiu seemed to understand that this was not her mother.
"Mother won't hit Second Brother..."
Chen Cuihua was heartbroken.
"Yes, he went too far this time. Xiu'er, don't be afraid, Mother will stand up for you, really will stand up for you. Tell me, what did he do?"
Lu Qingqing couldn't believe it and hoped her guess was wrong.
"I can't say...I can't say..."
Qiaoxiu cried harder and harder.
The voice was like that of a wounded young animal, fearful and anxious, finding no one to rely on.
"Widow Du is dead... I'm scared, I'm scared..."
"People will scold me, they'll laugh at me..."
Widow Du?
Lu Qingqing couldn't remember who this person was, and looked at Chen Cuihua questioningly.
Chen Cuihua's face turned pale, and her voice became stiff: "Widow Du hanged herself five years ago. Rumors in the village say that she had an affair with Lai San."
Chen Cuihua's palms began to sweat.
She remembered.
That was the time when Qiaoxiu didn't want to cut pig feed and always clung to her side, impossible to get rid of!
Who is Lai San? Widow Du is so beautiful, why would she be interested in him!
Widow Du had no children, and her records were already with the government, waiting for them to arrange a marriage for her.
But when rumors started to circulate, she hanged herself.
Could it be Lai San...?
No, it's not possible.
Qiaoxiu said that the second son bullied her.
It must have been a playful fight between siblings.
At that time, Qiaoxiu was only ten years old, just a little girl. No matter what Lai San did, he couldn't...
With a cold face, Lu Qingqing removed the silver needles and then inserted another needle into the sleeping acupoint.
Qiaoxiu's brows relaxed, and she fell into a deep sleep.
"Qingqing, we still haven't gotten the answer..."
"I'm not asking anymore. If you want to know the answer, go find your second son!"
Why further aggravate a seriously injured little girl!
Lu Qingqing's gaze was as cold as ice.
She said to Chen Cuihua with hatred in her voice, "You are not fit to be a mother!"
She stood up and went outside, shouting in the courtyard, "Second Brother, come with me to kill someone!"
Soon, Lu Feng, Lu Yun, and Old Man Lu all came out dressed.
They asked in unison, "Who should we kill?"
"Lu Changshun!"
The three men didn't say anything, but casually picked up sticks and hammers...
As they reached the door, Feng Xiaowan called out from behind:
"Brother Feng! Aren't you getting a knife?"
She took the kitchen knife out of the kitchen!
Lu Feng: "..."
"No, close the door properly. Why use a sledgehammer to crack a nut?"
Brother, is that how you use that phrase?
Chen Cuihua hurriedly followed.
She's not very bright and can't figure it out.
But I know that something very serious must have happened, very serious.
It was a dark night, so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face.
The dog spat a few times, and then silence returned.
Upon arriving at Lu Xingde's house, Lu Yun climbed over the wall into the courtyard and turned on the latch.
Everyone entered with an air of nonchalance.
close the door.
Lu Changshun was kicked off the bed in his sleep.
"who?"
The dim candlelight cast several shadows of varying shapes and expressions, which frightened him so much that he screamed.
Despite all the calling, the woman and child on the kang (heated brick bed) showed no sign of waking up.
The older brother, sister-in-law, and father, who lived in the same courtyard, couldn't hear it.
The silence outside was eerie, as if he were the only person left in the world.
Lu Feng picked up a tattered piece of clothing from the kang (a heated brick bed) and threw it at Lu Changshun's head.
Don't offend my eyes by being naked.
"Little sister, where should we kill them?" Lu Yun asked.
Kill, kill, kill?
"Don't kill me, don't kill me, I'll do whatever you say!"
Lu Qingqing stepped forward and flipped Lu Changshun over, inserting a ten-centimeter-long needle into his coccyx.
Instantly, Lu Changshun lost all feeling in his lower body.
"Lu Qingqing, it's you! What are you doing? Ah! I can't move!"
"Tell me, what did you do to Qiaoxiu five years ago?"
Five years ago, Qiaoxiu!
"No, I didn't do anything."
"Brother, chop off one of his fingers."
Lu Feng grabbed Lu Changshun's fingers.
This guy is really not a tough guy; he went limp right away.
"I'll talk, I'll talk! If I tell you, will you let me go?"
"I don't want to hear it anymore."
Lu Qingqing's voice was exceptionally sinister and terrifying.
It's a sinister aura that comes from the very core of one's being.
Lu Changshun hurriedly shouted, "Lai San gave me a roast chicken! He told me to take Qiaoxiu to the cornfield!"
“ ……
"Why bring it to the cornfield?"
The Lu family remained silent.
A deathly silence.
Because they all knew what kind of person Lai San was.
Only Chen Cuihua, resisting the thought, asked the question tremblingly.
"Nothing was done, nothing was done, really nothing was done. Qiaoxiu had diarrhea and urination, and Lai San said another day, and even took half of the roast chicken back..."
Really, after that one time, I never took Qiaoxiu out again.
Qiaoxiu is still a young girl!
Mother, Mother, please beg for my life! I'm your son!
Chen Cuihua was thunderstruck.
It wasn't that he hadn't taken Qiaoxiu out again; it was that Qiaoxiu cried out in anguish and refused to go out with him anymore.
At that time, she blamed Qiaoxiu for being immature and delaying her work.
"She's your sister, your own sister! You beast, you animal!!!"
Chen Cuihua slapped Lu Changshun on the head repeatedly.
After that, he started whipping himself.
She doesn't deserve to be a mother.
She doesn't deserve it!
What sins did she commit in her past life to deserve giving birth to such a beast!
One roast chicken, just for one roast chicken!
Then Chen Cuihua also hated Lu Xingde.
If it weren't for that good-for-nothing, why would Lu Changshun have to do this for a roast chicken...
She hated it, she wished the whole family would die!
