Zhao Caoer finally found out that Dabao caught a big grass carp and sold it to Huaqingyuan across the lake, earning ninety-nine cents.

But it wasn't Zhao Xiuxiu who "snitched", it was Dabao who was seen by a passing villager when he was bargaining with others. Later, when the man met Zhao Cao'er, he complimented Dabao casually, and only then did Zhao Cao'er know that his eldest son had done it.

"good thing".

So, when he returned home from work one day, Zhao Caoer caught Dabao and asked him to hand over the money from selling the fish, saying that he would keep it for him.

Dabao spread his hands and told Qin Xiaoxiao that the money for buying fish was in Qin Xiaoxiao's hands. He also said that the three brothers and sisters earned it together and asked his mother to leave some for his little cousin instead of asking for all of it.

As Dabao expected, Zhao Caoer was really embarrassed to ask for money from his niece. He felt that his niece was more reliable in managing money than his brat, so he just pretended that there was no money from selling fish. He just told his niece to keep a close eye on the money.

Hey, don't let Dabao be fooled.

After successfully saving the hard-earned ninety-nine cents, not only Dabao breathed a sigh of relief, but Qin Xiaoxiao also breathed a sigh of relief. If the second aunt asked her for the money to buy fish, she really didn't know whether to give it to her.

The days are like a stream, flowing away slowly and leisurely. The life of Lao Qin's family is dull and busy.

The busy ones are the adults, who have to carefully take care of the several acres of farmland at home every day. Like Qin Xiaoxiao and Sanbao, apart from eating, sleeping and playing, the only thing they have to do every day is to herd sheep.

If they are lucky, the siblings can occasionally pick up a pheasant and hare that suddenly rushes in front of the rhubarb or plunges into the mud. Most of the pheasants and hares are taken home by them to improve their meals, giving the family some time to relax after their busy schedule.

of satisfaction.

Until one day, Hu Qingqing, who was all injured, was sent to the Qin family by Qin Guihua, forcing Qin Xiaoxiao to withdraw from her leisurely and contented life, and tasted anger for the first time.

In the room, Mrs. Miao shed tears and applied ointment to the last scar of her grandson lying on the bed: "What a sin, what a sin. My good granddaughter was ruined by the Hu family. This is to kill the child alive."

Beat him to death!"

At this time, Hu Qingqing had cried so hard that her voice was hoarse. She looked numbly into space, not reacting much to Mrs. Miao's words.

To make it easier to apply the medicine, her clothes were taken off, and her face, body, arms, and legs were covered with criss-crossing dark red scars. Such horrific scars were clearly caused by whips or injuries.

He was beaten hard with bamboo sticks and the like.

The mouth was even more swollen and covered with blood stasis. It looked like he had been hit with something, more than once.

Hu Qingqing is obviously three or four months older than Qin Xiaoxiao, but she seems to be shorter than Qin Xiaoxiao. Only a few ounces of flesh can be seen on her buttocks, and all other parts of her body are covered by one tentacle.

A broken bone.

Her skin is also a deep dark gray, very rough, not like a child's complexion at all. Not to mention compared to the fair and tender Qin Xiaoxiao, even Dabao, who has been running outside all day and is as tan as black charcoal, is better than her.

Much.

Hearing what Mrs. Miao said, Qin Guihua, who was holding her six-month-old belly, covered her face and cried: "It's me, it's all my uselessness that didn't protect Qingqing, and she was beaten like this by her parents-in-law."

…”

Seeing the miserable condition of her niece, and hearing her sister-in-law's words, Lin Qiuniang was so angry that she trembled with anger: "Qingqing is their biological granddaughter, not an enemy. Even if they are enemies, they can't bear to do such a heavy hand to such a young child.

, still not human!”

"It's just that these two old guys from the Hu family are too vicious, and they are not afraid of retribution! Your man is also a dead man, just watching his own daughter being beaten like this." Zhao Cao'er was also very angry, in front of Qin Guihua's

He scolded the Hu family in front of him.

She had no feelings for her niece Hu Qingqing, but her niece played well with her little niece. When she thought about how sad her niece would be when she saw her niece's injury, she felt sad. How could she have anything to do with the evil Hu family?

Good words.

Under the angry accusations from her two sisters-in-law, Qin Guihua was so ashamed that she could not raise her head: "It's my fault. It's because I didn't teach Qingqing to speak nice words, so my parents-in-law and mother-in-law heard Qingqing calling 'sister' to my belly.

My father-in-law and mother-in-law got angry and beat Qingqing."

Qin Guihua had been married to the Hu family for several years and had only one daughter, Hu Qingqing. For the next three years, there was no movement in her belly. It was not until the end of the first month that she fainted for no reason and found out she was pregnant.

The month is not old, and no matter how experienced the mother-in-law is, she cannot tell whether the child in her belly is a boy or a girl. If someone wants to know the gender early, they will find a two or three-year-old child and ask the pregnant woman whether the child in her belly is a brother or a sister.

If the child answers that it is a younger brother, they will think that the pregnant woman is carrying a boy, and everyone will be happy; if the child answers that it is a younger sister, they will be very unhappy and think that the pregnant woman's belly is an eyesore.

Qin Guihua finally got pregnant again. Her father-in-law and mother-in-law were thinking about their eldest grandson. They usually talked about the grandson and said nothing about the grandson. They just had the word "grandson" carved on their mouths.

Hu Qingqing called "sister" to Qin Guihua's belly. It was simply a provocation to the two old men of the Hu family, and to their long-awaited precious grandson. It would be surprising if they could accept it.

I didn't like Hu Qingqing's granddaughter, so I found a "just and reasonable" excuse to beat Hu Qingqing severely.

"It's so cruel! It's so cruel! How could they beat Qingqing like this for just such a small thing?"

When the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law heard that this was the reason, their lungs were about to explode. If the Hu family were here, they would have jumped on him and started a fight.

“Bang bang bang!”

Just as the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were angrily denouncing the Hu family, there was a knock on the door, and Qin Xiaoxiao's anxious voice sounded: "Grandma, please open the door. I want to come in and see Sister Qingqing."

At this time, Qin Xiaoxiao was supposed to be herding sheep in the wild. It was Dabao who ran to the wild to tell her that Hu Qingqing was here. She seemed to be still sick, so she hurried back.

Hearing her cousin's voice, Hu Qingqing's gray eyes suddenly lit up and she struggled to get up: "Sister Xiaoxiao, it's sister Xiaoxiao~"

As she said this, she thought of something else. She lay on the bed and stretched out her hands with difficulty to hook up the clothes on the chair: "It's too ugly. You can't let sister Xiaoxiao see it. She will be scared to cry."

After listening to Hu Qingqing's words, the four women in the room all had red eyes again.

Zhao Cao'er went to open the door for Qin Xiaoxiao, and Lin Qiuniang pressed her niece's hand and comforted her: "Qingqing, Xiaoxiao is very brave and won't be scared to tears." Seeing that her niece insisted on taking the clothes, she couldn't resist and had to take one.

The clothes gently covered her body.

Hu Qingqing pulled her clothes to make sure that the horrific scars on her body were covered, then a smile appeared on her face and she looked at the door of the room expectantly.

The door was opened, and Qin Xiaoxiao jumped in. When she saw the horrific scars on Hu Qingqing's face, her tears flowed out, and she didn't dare to touch her outstretched hand: "Sister Qingqing..."
