Adored Koi in the ’70s

Shen Family was very wealthy. Not only had they bought a lot of things for Da Qiao, but also for her siblings.

Qiao Dong He and Qiao Dong Ying got a set of dress. An Ping had a pair of Warrior sneaker. Little Wan'er and other two little dumpling each received half a jin of white rabbit candies each. Lin Hui got two cans of malted milk extract.

Malted milk was very precious. Even the department store in town was often out of stock.

These two jars were sent from the capital by Qin Xiao Mei's elder cousin sister. It was said to be very nutritious to the fetus.

Wan Chun Ju was satisfied that her three children had received good gifts. Still, she was jealous that Da Qiao had received more than her own children.

This bootlicker Da Qiao must have been flattering a lot during this trip!

While thinking about it, she picked up the water on the table to drink. The next moment she screamed: "Ouch... it's bloody hot!"

She was so jealous of Da Qiao's gift just now that she forgot that the water in the old porcelain bowl had just been boiled. So drinking it like this made her tongue numb all at once!

Her mouth sore hadn't yet healed. Now it got burned, it was adding frost on top of the snow!

"It hurts! It hurts!"

Wan Chun Ju croaked with her mouth open. Unfortunately, no one came to care for her despite calling for a long time!

So infuriating!

Chen Qiao Qiao sat in the corner with her head bowed. She seem to be absent-minded.

Qiao Zhen Min set off for work in the county this morning. She didn't know the news that he was leaving until yesterday. This goes to show that he never planned to take her with him from beginning to end!

He hadn't touched her since little Wan'er was lost!

Now that they were separated from each other, what feelings were there between husband and wife?

Was it really because of little Wan'er that he despised her like this?

Or was he seeing other women outside?

Chen Qiao Qiao's fingernails were deeply pinched into the palm of her hand. But she felt no pain at all.

Qiao Xiu Zhi put the fabric for Xue Chuan's clothes into the room. When she came out, she heard Liu Cui Hua calling her at the door.

"Auntie Xiu Zhi, you're back?" Liu Cui Hua merrily spoke.

"Yes. I just came back. You're looking for me for something?"

Although Liu Cui Hua used to spend time with Song Jin Lai's wife and the other gossipy women, she knew when to stop. So Qiao Xiu Zhi had a good impression of her.

Liu Cui Hua nodded: "Didn't you say last time that you wanted to arrange for your eldest daughter-in-law to go to the pigsty to work? Yesterday, before my spouse went to the county, he told me that there was only one doctor in the health center and it's too busy. Sometimes, the doctor have to ask for leave or get sick or something. Then there is no one in the health center."

"Let me ask Chen Qiao Qiao if she is willing to go to the health center to help and learn simple medical care. If she is willing to go, her work in the pigsty will be freed up for Eldest Qiao's wife. "

Although the production team's health center wasn't big, people from several nearby production teams went there to see a doctor. So there were quite a few people.

In addition, the villagers didn't like to go to the hospital to see a doctor. When they have a headache, they go directly to the health center to see a doctor. Therefore, every time the season changes, there were so many people with the flu. One doctor can't handle it all.

The female doctor who was transferred had complained before and even submitted an application to the community to ask for more staff. Identifying an illness and prescribing medicine wasn't a joke. If one didn't have knowledge in this aspect, how can anyone dare to send someone over?

But it couldn't go on like this. So after thinking about it, they came up with a compromise solution. Get a highly educated person to go to the health center to help and study at the same time.

After one or two years of study, there will be another assessment. If one pass the exam, it will be considered as having cultivated a useful talent for the production team!

In the entire production team, old Fifth Qiao's wife, Chen Qiao Qiao had the highest education.

Chen Qiao Qiao graduated from high school. If were for being unable to take college entrance exam, she might be a college student now!

When Qiao Xiu Zhi heard these words, she nodded, "It is much better to study in the health center than working in the pigsty. Still, I have to ask her for her opinion on this matter."

An envious expression appeared on Liu Cui Hua's face: "Auntie Xiu Zhi is really a good mother-in-law. If other people hear that going to the health center, they will definitely agree to it. How can they possibly ask their daughter-in-law's opinion!"

Qiao Xiu Zhi smiled: "Wait a minute, I'll go in and ask her. Why don't you come in and sit down?"

Liu Cui Hua waved: "No need, I'll just wait here. It's getting late, I need to go back to make dinner in a bit!"

Qiao Xiu Zhi didn't force her. She turned around, walked back to the main room, and told Chen Qiao Qiao about the matter. Let her decide for herself.

When Chen Qiao Qiao heard it, she was stunned before replying, "Alright."

The road of following along to the county was blocked by her man himself. She could only stay in this place full of chicken poo and pig dung.

In this case, she must choose a job that makes her feel better.

Wan Chun Ju gritted her teeth with envy when she heard that Chen Qiao Qiao could go to work in the health center.

But she can't even write her own name, so it was never her turn.

On second thought, as soon as Chen Qiao Qiao leaves, she will soon be able to work in the pigsty!

Very good!

Gold Bullion, here she comes!

...

With the help of her two elder cousin sisters, Da Qiao moved things back to Qiao's small house.

When passing the pigsty, she noticed Huo Chi looking towards her. She was about to say hello to him, but he turned and walked into the pigsty as if he didn't see her.

She was stunned for a moment, wondering if she heard it wrong. She seemed to hear him snort.

She should have heard it wrong. At such a long distance, even if he harrumphed, she should not be able to hear it.

Back in Qiao's small house, Pi Pi seemed to hear her footsteps from afar. He ran to the courtyard gate to wait for her with a wildly wagging tail.

"Pi Pi, I'm back. Have you been obediently guarding home?"

"Woof woof woof..."

Pi Pi surrounded her. His paws kept pawing her. The movements were very light and wouldn't hurt her in the slightest.

Every time Qiao Dong Ying heard the name "Pi Pi", she found it extremely funny. You Rou in the old house didn't seem to be any better.

You Rou from the old house's name clashed with Fang Family's youngest grandson. Every time someone mentioned this, old woman Fang immediately scolded the heaven and the earth.

Qiao Dong He likes small animals very much. She was very familiar with the two dogs at home.

As soon as Da Qiao walked into the yard, she suddenly heard the sound of vomiting coming from the house.

She was startled and hurried in with the things in her arms.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw Auntie Hui leaning on the kang. Her face turning pale from vomiting: "Mom, what's wrong?"

When Lin Hui saw her coming back, she managed to squeeze out a smile despite her discomfort, "Da Qiao, you're back? Mom has morning sickness. Pregnant women experience this. You don't have to worry."

Da Qiao then remembered Eldest Aunt seemed to have morning sickness before. But Eldest Aunt didn't like her. She won't put a hot face on a cold butt, so she didn't care much about her wellbeing.

At this moment, seeing Auntie Hui vomiting and her pale face, she was distressed. In less than two days, she seemed to have lost weight. "Mom, can you eat even during your morning sickness?"

Lin Hui nodded: "Mom's appetite have been a bit poor for a while. But it will be fine once it pass. Don't worry about Mom."

Seeing her like this, little Dong Lin had been tearful with worry. So she asked Hong Xia to take him out to play.

Although Auntie Hui kept telling her not to worry, Da Qiao couldn't let it go.

She tilted her head and pondered: "Mom, are you hungry? I'll cook some egg and millet congee for you, okay?"

No one in the village grew millet. This millet was bought from a supply and demand cooperative. Godmother said that millet was very nourishing, especially for pregnant women.

Lin Hui just finished vomiting and didn't want to eat anything.

But seeing the child's wet eyes looking at her like a fawn, her heart softened and nodded, "Okay, then Mom will wait for your millet congee."

Da Qiao's eyes lit up. Pursing her lips, she stated, "Mom, wait a moment, I'll be quick."

After speaking, she turned around and dashed towards the kitchen.

Qiao Dong He put down her things and ran to the kitchen to help.

When Cousin Sister wasn't paying attention, Da Qiao stealthily threw a jade bead into the millet congee and let it boil together with the millet congee.

Before the millet congee was ready, the family came back.

"Elder Sister Da Qiao, you're finally back. Little Yi Ming kept missing you!"

As soon as little Yi Ming heard that his elder sister Da Qiao come back, he hurriedly swung his short legs and ran over.

Little Dong Lin was a step slower. He chased after him like a gust of wind: "Elder Sister Da Qiao, little Dong Lin kept kept missing you!"

Last time, little Yi Ming said one more "most". This time he had to say one more "kept". He can't lose to him every time!

When everyone heard the two's childish voice, they couldn't help laughing.

Da Qiao hugged the two little dumplings and squeezed their faces, "Have you been good these two days?"

Little Yi Ming responded loudly: "Yes. Little Yi Ming is most most most most good!"

Little Dong Lin took in how sneaky Little Yi Ming was. He actually said a lot of 'most' in one breath. To be not outdone, he immediately spoke: "Little Dong Lin is the most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most...good!"

Saying so many "most" in one breath made him really exhausted!

"Hahaha..." Qiao Dong Ying, who was standing at the door of the kitchen, laughed loudly, "Why are you two little guys so cute?"

Little Dong Lin responded first this time, "Yes, we are so cute!"

Little Yi Ming spun his small eyes and said, "We are just as cute as Elder Sister Da Qiao!"

Although little Yi Ming was young, his little mouth was like smeared with honey. What will he be like once he grow up?

Little Dong Lin saw that everyone's attention was taken away by little Yi Ming again. His cheeks were puffed and he became a puffer fish again.

Da Qiao took out the hawthorn rolls, sour plum powder, haw flakes and other snacks that was bought in the town for the two younger brothers to eat.

The two little dumplings instantly grinned and their eyebrows curved. Like two little pups, they stuck Da Qiao.

After cooking the millet congee, Da Qiao added two pieces of brown sugar in it. After the brown sugar melted, the millet porridge wasn't so hot.

She immediately brought it to Auntie Hui.

Lin Hui had no appetite at first. Nor could she stand the smell of eggs before. But now she was holding the egg and millet congee cooked by Da Qiao, she suddenly felt hungry!

She scooped up a spoonful of millet congee and drank it. After vomiting for a long time, her stomach was finally warmed. Her whole body feel comfortable.

"Mom, how is it? Can you eat it?" Da Qiao asked nervously with blinking long eyelashes.

Lin Hui took a few sips before stopping to respond: "It's delicious, thank you, Da Qiao. Mom likes it very much!"

Da Qiao's brows and eyes curved into a crescent with a smile. Then she pursed her red lips and declared, "Then I will cook for Mom in the future. Just tell me what you want to eat, Mom!"

Qiao Zhen Jun came in sweating profusely from the outside with a few blue-colored fruits. When he saw Lin Hui eating, he was pleasantly surprised: "You're not vomit anymore?"

In the past two days, Lin Hui ate and vomited. Almost consuming nothing. Just now, she suddenly wanted to eat sour fruit, so he immediately went to the forest to find it.

However, many wild fruits have not grown yet in this season. He searched the whole mountain and forest, only to find two or three. And they looked ugly.

Lin Hui smiled softly and answered, "Yes, when Da Qiao came back to see that I hadn't eaten, she personally cooked me an egg and millet congee. I got hungry from the smell."

More importantly, she didn't feel nausea after eating and her stomach feels very comfortable!

Hearing this, Qiao Zhen Jun breathed a sigh of relief: "That's great! Da Qiao is really a little lucky star in our family. As soon as she comes back, you are able to eat immediately!"

Lin Hui rubbed the child's hair and smiled, "Yes, Da Qiao is my precious little lucky star!"

When Da Qiao heard her parents' words, she delighted. Her little lips burst into a bright smile.

It was great that she wasn't a calamity after all!

...

The day was peaceful for two days. Upon Wang Family's two brothers' return, this peace shatter on the third day!

When the tractor entered the village, the villagers were doing farm work in the fields. As soon as the tractor came in, it immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Oh, isn't that the leader? The leader actually came back in a tractor!"

"That's a tractor. I've never seen a tractor before. This time, it's an eye-opener!"

"Is this tractor approved by the community for our production team?"

Tractors were rare machines. Only the two or three most productive production teams in the entire community were eligible to own them.

The productivity of Qili production team was neither high or low. They had submitted an application to the community before, but the community had no money. So it had never been approved.

Now everyone saw the tractor, they can't help but get excited.

If they have a tractor, they will in limelight when going out. Also, it will also be much more convenient to do things in the future!

With a weed in his mouth, favus-riddled Gou Sheng's gaze landed on the cart behind the tractor: "Didn't you see what's behind the tractor? Aren't you curious about what it is?"

A cart was tied to the back of the tractor with a rope. On the cart was an elongated object, which was covered with a cloth. It was difficult to see what was inside.

Naturally, everyone had noticed it. But compared with the tractor, everyone's interest in it was naturally not so strong.

Now that favus-riddled Gou Sheng pointed it out, many people started making guesses.

"Do you think there will be a wild boar on it? I think it looks quite similar!"

"Keep dreaming. Wild boars! If there is a wild boar, do you think everyone is Auntie Xiu Zhi. Wild boars can be killed with one punch?"

Qiao Xiu Zhi killed a wild boar during the New Year. Everyone got a share of pork. Although the meat of the wild boar was tough and gamey, it was still meat. No one would dislike it.

Many people were now recollecting that day's scene. They kept hoping for another wild boar to come down the mountain. That way, everyone can eat pork again.

Gou Sheng discarded the tools in his hand, ran towards the road, and jumped on the back of the tractor.

A rancid smell rushed towards him. He almost vomited: "I say, leader, what is on this cart? Why does it smell so strong?"

Saying that, he reached out his hand to lift the cloth.

At this moment, Wang Shui Sheng jumped off the tractor with a livid face. He rushed over, dragged Gou Sheng down, and pressed him on the ground to wildly beat.

Gou Sheng was stunned from the beating: "Ouch... Leader, spare my life! Are you trying to kill me?"

Old Second Wang was startled by his eldest brother's action. He quickly jumped down, grabbed his eldest brother, and urged, "Eldest Brother, don't be impulsive!"

Everyone was stunned by this scene!

Although Wang Shui Sheng's ability as a leader was average, he had a very good temper. He was recognized as a good man. Since he became the team leader, they had never seen him angry with anyone like this.

Although favus-riddled Gou Sheng was a little bit impish, there was nothing wrong with having a glance. Was it necessary to make a scene and beat people?

Everyone became more and more curious about what was on the cart.

When old Second Wang's wife saw the object on the scooter, her whole body couldn't help trembling.

Her face was even paler now, as if she was about to collapse at any moment.

Liu Cui Hua supported her and asked, "What's the matter with you? Where do you feel unwell?"

Old Second Wang's lips trembled and she lowered her voice: "Eldest Sister-in-law, something happened! Something happened!"

The blue veins on Wang Shui Sheng's forehead were bulging. After taking a long time, he pulled himself together and loosened favus-riddled Gou Sheng's collar. He returned to the tractor and let the driver pull the cart back to Wang's house.

Everyone's curiosity had been hoisted to the highest point. If they didn't need to continue to work now, everyone would follow!

The tractor stopped at the end of the road, because the road inside wasn't easy to drive on.

Wang Shui Sheng untied the rope to the cart with a sullen face. Then he paid the rest of the money to the driver.

The driver counted the money and saw that there was nothing wrong. He reached out and patted his shoulder, "My condolences. I'm leaving!"

At the beginning, he didn't want to take this job. Not only was the journey long, it was sending a corpse. Which was very unlucky!

But the two brothers begged him bitterly. Seeing that they were so pitiful, his heart softened and accepted. Don't know why his brother can't think it through at such a young age.

Old Second Wang drooped his head: "Eldest Brother, my heart feel a little flustered, I don't dare to go home!"

His parents loved Fifth Younger Brother the most. When they see the fifth brother's body, don't know what will happen!

Wang Shui Sheng gritted his teeth and stated, "Let's go."

No matter how afraid they were, they have to go back and face it. Can't leave Wang Xin Sheng's body hanging around here!

The two brothers pushed the cart together and headed home.

Arriving at the gate of the yard, old Madam Wang happened to come out to feed the chickens. When she saw the two brothers coming back, she was stunned and said, "Old Second, why are you back again?"

Old Second just came back a few days ago to ask for a letter of introduction. Eldest followed him. Did he lose the letter of introduction again this time?

Old Second Wang's lips trembled so much that he couldn't utter a word.

Wang Family's children gathered around and wanted to lift the cloth. Wang Shui Sheng shouted: "Get out of here!"

Old Madam Wang felt sorry for her grandson and reprimanded: "The children are ignorant. Just tell them nicely. Why do you need to yell at the children like this?"

Wang Shui Sheng didn't speak. He pushed the cart into the yard and knelt down toward his mom with a "bang".

Old Madam Wang was taken aback. She took two steps back, and said with a confused expression: "Eldest, what are you doing?"

When old Mister Wang heard the movement, he came out and saw this scene. His eyes suddenly fell on the cart. His eyes widened at once: "Eldest...what is on the cart?"

Wang Shui Sheng started sobbing: "Dad, Mom, Son has done you wrong. Fifth Younger Brother...he committed suicide by jumping into the river!"

A bolt from the blue sky!

It exploded on the heads of the two elderly!

Old Madam Wang stared at Eldest Son. The blood on her body continued to flow up: "Eldest, you, you...what did you say?"

She understood every word Eldest Son said, but suddenly she couldn't understand it when pieced together.

When old Mister Wang saw his eldest son kneeling on the ground just now, he had a bad guess in his heart. Now that the hunch was confirmed, his body swayed a bit. If he wasn't supported by the pillar beside him, he would have fallen down!

Wang Shui Sheng stood up and tried to help his dad, but was pushed away.

Old Mister Wang staggered to the cart and lifted the cloth on it with trembling hands. Next moment, he stepped back a good few steps in fright.

The corpse that had been swollen from the soaking and created this eye-opening phenomenon. Quite a scary sight!

Wang Shui Sheng hurriedly went up to support his dad. However, it slipped his mind that old Madam Wang behind him could see the corpse on the cart. Her fixated eyes were almost protruding.

She suddenly felt that it was difficult to breathe and a stream of heat rushed to her forehead. She fell down with a shake of her body.

"Mom!" Wang Shui Sheng and old Second Wan both shouted at the same time.

"Old woman!" Old Mister Wang couldn't pay heed of himself anymore and turned around to see his wife.

Old Madam Wang fell to the ground. Her mouth slanted, while her body twitching uncontrollably. She couldn't speak at all!

It was stroke!

Wang Shui Sheng had seen an old man having a stroke in the village before. Exactly what his mom was like now!

He was shocked and uttered, "Mom may have suffered a stroke. Got to hurry to the town hospital!"

After he finished speaking, he rushed out and went to the production team office to get a horse carriage.

Not long after the villagers suppressed their curiosity and started working, they suddenly saw their leader rushing towards the town with a black face in a carriage.

What was going on?

"Why do I feel that something has happened to Wang Family? Look at leader's face. It's darker than the bottom of the pot!"

"I think so too! But what do you think happened?"

Liu Cui Hua had already gotten the information from her sister-in-law just now. But when she saw her man exiting the village in a carriage, her heart jumped wildly.

She hurriedly asked for leave with the deputy leader and then ran towards the house.

Old Second Wang's wife saw that her eldest sister-in-law had asked for leave and was startled for a while. Then she ran off with the leave too.

When everyone saw that Wang Family left one after another, they couldn't help but guess.

By the end of the evening, everyone found out.

Wang Xin Sheng was dead!

The news exploded in the village in an instant!

Why did someone who was perfectly fine seven or eight days ago die so suddenly?

At that time, many people knew that Wang Xin Sheng was going to the army and said a lot of bitter words.

Wanting to join the army these days was not something one can do just cause they want to. Many people wanted to join the army, but there was no way to get in.

Idler Wang Xin Sheng could join the army because there was connection in the army, no?

Who could have thought that after going for a few days, he came back as a corpse!

Everyone ran to Wang's house and surrounded Wang's house.

Liu Cui Hua gritted her teeth and didn't say anything. She drove out all the people who came to inquire about the news.

...

When Fang Xiao Juan first arrived here through rebirth, she had settled down for a few days.

One, her body was too weak. Second, she still hadn't figure out the situation. And third, she didn't act up due to wanting to negotiate conditions with Wang Family.

But as her health got better and better and Wang Family treated her like a master, her heart gradually swelled up.

She must eat fine flour every day. The stuff made of coarse flour choked her throat and she couldn't eat it.

Every day, she demanded that old Fourth Wang's wife to push her out to bask in the sun for an hour. Even though she can walk by herself, she just wanted others to push her!

Before going to sleep every day, old Fourth Wang's must kill mosquitoes for her. If a mosquito bites her while sleeping, she will definitely scold her.

In order to take care of her these few days, old Fourth Wang's wife was so angry that her mouth grew mouth sore!

When Wang Shui Sheng came into the hospital with old Madam Wang, Fang Xiao Juan was losing her temper at the entrance of the hospital because she wanted to eat wontons. However, old Fourth Wang's wife didn't want to buy them for her.

So she pointed at old Fourth Wang's wife's nose outside and cursed.

Old Fourth Wang's wife was gnashing her teeth and glaring at her. Just as she was about to go all out with her, she saw Wang Shui Sheng carrying her mother-in-law and rushing towards them. Following them was her panting father-in-law.

She had no heart to argue with Fang Xiao Juan. She ran over and asked, "Eldest Brother, what's wrong with Mom?"

Wang Shui Sheng gasped for air and replied, "Mom may have had a stroke. Hurry ... hurry in and inform the doctor!"

Old Fourth Wang's wife's heart thumped. She turned around to run, but her clothes was unexpectedly caught by Fang Xiao Juan.

Fang Xiao Juan raised her chin and declared, "Go buy me a bowl of wontons first. The wontons from the supply and demand cooperative will be sold out once the time has passed!"

Old Fourth Wang's wife was exasperated that her face turned black: "Fang Xiao Juan, you're sick! Mom met with mishap and you want me to buy you wontons at this time. Do you still have a conscience?"

Fang Xiao Juan indifferently responded, "Don't worry, Mom will be fine!"

In her last life, old Madam Wang lived to be ninety years old. She was one of the few long-lived elderly in the village!

When she was eighty-eight years old, Wang Xin Sheng went back to the village to set up an open banquet.

The open banquet was set up for three days and three nights. She had joined at that time.

Since old Madam Wang won't die, what was there to be anxious about? Better to buy her a bowl of wontons and come back!

Old Fourth Wang's wife's face was steaming red. Old Fourth Wang happened to arrive now. Wang Shui Sheng shoved his mom into the arms of old Fourth Wang: "Mom has a stroke. You take Mom in to find a doctor now!"

Old Fourth Wang was stunned for a moment. Once he reacted, he immediately ran towards the hospital.

With a dark face, Wang Shui Sheng walked toward Fang Xiao Juan. Then his foot was raised and kicked at her fiercely!

Fang Xiao Juan was kicked over. Her whole body fell backward. Her head hit the ground. The pain made her cry.

Wang Shui Sheng had always despised men who beat women, but today he couldn't help it!

If it weren't for this woman, his fifth younger brother wouldn't have committed suicide!

If his fifth younger brother wasn't dead, his mom won't be like this!

At this point, this woman was still making trouble!

He chased after her again and kicked Fang Xiao Juan's stomach: "Bitch, if you dare to stir trouble again, I'll kill you now!"

Fang Xiao Juan stared at the furious Wang Shui Sheng. Her heart shrunk violently.

But seeing passers-by noticing them, she immediately wailed: "Ouch, my goddess! Murder! Help, I'm going to be beaten to death!"

"If you don't want your life, then keep making trouble!" Wang Shui Sheng dropped these words and ran towards the hospital.

Old Fourth Wang's wife saw Fang Xiao Juan being beaten and her heart burst with joy!

She had endured this woman for too long. If it wasn't for family, she would have to beat her up long ago!

She spat at Fang Xiao Juan before running in.

Fang Xiao Juan was lying on the ground. Her body was sore all over. She gasped in pain and cursed: "Alright, Wang Family, you turtle bastards. Dare to beat this old lady? I'll go to the police station and report you! "

But when the gatekeeper of the hospital came to ask her if she wanted to call the police, she hesitated.

Wang Shui Sheng's appearance just now was too cruel and scary. She still felt a little cowardly when she recall it.

What's more, before she grasp Wang Xin Sheng's heart, she can't fall out with Wang Family for the time being. Stepping back 10,000 steps, she still hadn't got the 800 yuan!

So she gritted her teeth again and finally gave up calling the police.

Everyone saw her shouting so miserably just now. Never thought she wouldn't call the police now. They all felt that she had some sickness in her brain!

...

Wang Shui Sheng and old Mister Wang didn't return that night. The entire Wang Family spent it in anxiety and fear.

Qiao Family knew what happened to Wang Family.

During this time, Wang Family had the intention to make friends with Qiao Family. They had given them a lot of convenience. Qiao Xiu Zhi naturally noticed.

After night fell, she went to Wang's house with a few eggs and a snack bought in the town.

All evening, Liu Cui Hua was annoyed by the villagers. Only now, it was quiet for a while. There was a knock on the door. Her brows were furrowed!

She opened the door with a dark face and was about to break into scolding. But seeing Qiao Xiu Zhi standing at the door, she spoke, "Auntie Xiu Zhi, why are you here at this time?"

Qiao Xiu Zhi didn't even plan to go in. She handed the things over and said, "I've had heard about your family situation. If you need any help, feel free to speak up."

Liu Cui Hua looked at the things in her hands. A warm feeling surged in her heart: "Thank you Auntie Xiu Zhi. I will not be polite with you. If there is any need, I will definitely speak to Auntie. But Auntie, you can take these things back."

She now finally understood why her man asked her to be amicable to Qiao Family.

After what happened to Wang Family today, many people came here under the banner of concern, They weren't really worried though. Just curious!

There were very few people who really want to help like Auntie Xiu Zhi!

Qiao Xiu Zhi never liked the politeness of pushing around. So she shoved the things into her hands and stated, "Take it. I'm going back."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and blended into the night. She left so carefree.

Liu Cui Hua was holding the bamboo basket in her hand. Her eyes were a little hot.

...

Da Qiao came back from school that day. She took the textbook she had copied for two days, a few raw sweet potatoes, and eggs to the pigsty.

Halfway there, she saw Huo Chi walking ahead with pig dung. She immediately shouted, "Elder Brother Huo Chi, wait for me!"

It was fine that she didn't shout. Now that she shouted, she noticed Huo Chi in front of him paused slightly before slightly accelerated his pace and walked forward.

Da Qiao thought he didn't hear her and ran after him: "Elder Brother Huo Chi, don't walk so fast. Wait for me!"

If it was another person, they might not be able to keep up with Huo Chi's footsteps. But Da Qiao was different. She was like the wind!

Within a few minutes, she caught up with Huo Chi.

Huo Chi frowned and didn't look at her.

Da Qiao saw that he was ignoring her. A little confused, she asked softly, "Elder Brother Huo Chi, why won't you talk to me?"

Huo Chi's ears moved slightly, but he still didn't speak.

Da Qiao pouted and was a little sad: "Elder Brother Huo Chi, you don't want to play with me anymore?"

Huo Chi kept telling himself in his heart: Ignore her! Don't talk to her!

When Shen Family came to pick her up that day, he could see it from a distance outside the crowd.

She was surrounded by everyone like a heiress. Everyone looked at her with admiration. It was heard that she was recognized as a goddaughter by the deputy chief of the town police station.

At that moment, he looked down at the pig dung shovel in his hand. He realized that there was a world of difference between them.

What qualifications did a wicked one like him have to be her friend?

He couldn't give her any benefit at all. He would only implicate her. So after that day, he unilaterally decided not to contact her.

After she came back, he also avoided her.

But now, when she asked him in such a soft and aggrieved voice, he found that he couldn't harden his heart at all!

"Brother Huo Chi, did I do something wrong to make you ignore me?"

Da Qiao became more and more aggrieved. She lowered her head and poked her little fingers together.

Huo Chi finally stopped and turned around, "You didn't do anything wrong. It was me who did wrong, Sorry!"

Da Qiao tilted her head and looked at him with perplex with her big clear eyes: "Elder Brother Huo Chi, what did you do wrong?"

Huo Chi felt guilty for a while. He turned his head and coughed, "It's nothing. By the way, I have already folded the hen you want. I will give it to you later!"

Da Qiao wasn't a person who get to the bottom for the truth. Seeing that he didn't say anything, she didn't ask. Just nodded with a smile: "Thank you Elder Brother Huo Chi. These are the sweet potatoes and eggs I brought from home. Take them back and cook them secretly."

After finishing speaking, she glanced around and whispered: "I have copied the book too. Remember to hide it. Don't let others find it!"

Huo Chi stared at the pile of things she handed over and didn't say anything for a long time.

"Take it." Seeing that he didn't move, Da Qiao hurriedly urged.

It would be bad if she was seen by others. She was especially worried that she would be seen by Eldest Aunt.

Eldest Aunt's mouth was too powerful. If she knew that she was using the family's food to help wicked ones, she would definitely holler so loud that everyone knew!

Huo Chi stuffed the book into his clothes. Then he looked at her and spoke, "You keep the other things. I'll take you somewhere in a while!"

"Where?"

"You'll know in a while."

Huo Chi said that as he put the big rattan basket of pig dung to the grass on the side. Then he grasped Da Qiao's hand and turned into a path.

Huo Chi led her through twist and turns. Specifically drilled into the bushes.

When the two stopped, Da Qiao found them standing in front of a small waterfall.

She blinked and exclaimed in shock, "Isn't this..."

Wasn't this the place where she released the little fish?

Huo Chi looked at her in surprise and said proudly: "En, this is West Wood. Only I have discovered this path so far!"

Da Qiao looked at him with admiration: "Elder Brother Huo Chi, you are amazing!"

Huo Chi turned to look at the waterfall and said, "This isn't much?"

But the curve of the corners of his mouth betrayed him long ago.

Da Qiao had turned to look at the waterfall too. She wondered how the little fish was now. If there will be a chance to see it again in the future?

Huo Chi spoke: "Let's bake sweet potatoes and eggs and eat them. I'm going to pick up some dead branches now. Would you like to go with me?"

Da Qiao nodded like a little chick pecking rice: "Okay, I'll go with you."

The two went to West Wood to pick up some dead branches together. Then a fire was made. They threw the sweet potatoes and eggs into the fire. Soon the fragrance wafted out.

"It's so fragrant!" Da Qiao smacked her small mouth and swallowed her saliva.

Huo Chi took in her gluttonous cat appearance and couldn't help laughing: "Why are you gluttonous? Shouldn't you be full at home?"

Da Qiao blushed when he laughed at her. Still, she argued softly for herself: "I'm not gluttonous. It's because they smell too good!"

"Hahaha..." Huo Chi couldn't help laughing more and more when he heard her explanation.

"If you keep laughing at me, I will ignore you!"

Da Qiao snorted twice and turned around with a ruffled appearance.

"Okay, okay, I was wrong. I shouldn't be laughing at you. You're not gluttonous. It's all the food's fault!"

Seeing her like this, Huo Chi felt itchy in his heart. He wanted to reach out and tug at her hair. But he held back after some consideration.

Da Qiao wasn't really angry either. Seeing him coax her, she went went along with down slope.

The roasted sweet potatoes were so fragrant!

The charred fragrance was completely different from the steamed one. It had a different flavor.

When Da Qiao came over, she didn't feel hungry. Once she finished eating, she realized that she had eaten two whole sweet potatoes!

Looking at the sweet potato skins on the ground, she blushed embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, Elder Brother Huo Chi. These sweet potatoes were originally given to you to eat, but now I eat them!"

Huo Chi didn't mind at all: "Food is for eating. Let's go back. It's getting late, your family will be looking for you later."

Da Qiao nodded.

When they got out of the wood, they suddenly saw a lot of people heading toward Wang's house.

Someone sighed while running: "Oh, old Madam Wang normally looked healthy. So how can she pass just like that?"
