Mrs Zhao's face turned red, she angrily slapped the fence, "You damned girl, don't let me off! The last time your brother and someone rushed into my house, they almost beat me to death! I haven't even settled this score with your brother yet, and he just ran off like that … Be careful of my report! "
"Eh, hurry up and inform the officials!" Hemai let out a strange snort, "Let the officials come over to see what it means to deceive a poor scholar's wife, and let everyone see for themselves what kind of uncle and aunt who harmed their nephew, am I right?"
"You stinking girl! Do you think that I wouldn't dare to hit you after you're married? You're spouting nonsense here! Your conscience has been eaten by dogs!" Mrs Zhao angrily shouted, "Why do you have to call me Second Aunt, who are you talking to in a weird tone? "Something disheartened by conscience …"
"Zhao Xiu`er, are you done yet?!"
The old lady, who had been listening in on Lady Zhao's scolding, could no longer sit still. With a steeled face, she rushed out, glanced at Mrs Zhao, and then looked at Linn Changxi who was dodging.
"Eh!" Linn Changxi accidentally let out a loud shout.
"You old lady, how can you beat someone up?" Although Linn Changxi who had come back to life was angry, he did not dare to be too rash.
"It's light if I hit you!" Madam Qin sternly stared at Linn Changxi and the stunned Mrs Zhao, "In the past, I was too lenient with you two and taught you this much, Second Brother! It was really that phrase: 'A good mother has many failed children!' I've raised this much for you, you don't even have a little bit of conscience! "
"I …" Linn Changxi opened his eyes wide, "I …"
"I what me!" Madam Qin glared fiercely at Linn Changxi, and then directed her stern gaze onto Mrs Zhao, "As a human child, when the day comes when you are slapped and humiliated by your own son-in-law, and cannot bear to retaliate, you will know that my old woman is not weak, she just does not want to cause any trouble!"
Mrs Zhao didn't expect the old lady to suddenly mention this matter, and immediately shrank back in fear.
"Slap?" Linn Changxi was stunned, "Mother, she …"
Madam Qin slapped Linn Changxi's face again, "Second brother, all these years, just treat it as me raising a wolf that I'm not familiar with! Not only did you screw over your own mother, you even scammed your niece! Even you, your nephew, had been tricked long ago. Are you still considered a human? That's how I taught you back then? "
Linn Changxi covered his swollen face and looked at Madam Qin in disbelief.
"It's never ending. Who are you hitting, you old fogey? Hit a dog and you still need to see its owner's face... "Ah!"
Mrs Zhao had not finished speaking, had already fiercely grabbed onto her hair, she stumbled and almost fell to the ground, Linn Changxi's eyes were red, he clenched his teeth and shouted: "Stop disgracing yourself here, follow me back!"
"I'm going against you!" "If you dare hit me, if you dare hit me, I'll fight you to the death!" Mrs Zhao cried and threw herself at them, "None of your old Linn Family are good! "Dead or poor, poor or poor, who do you think you are, hitting me …"
There were still three people watching the show, so he might as well grab Mrs Zhao's hair and pull her towards the direction of the house as if she was a dead dog.
Even if Madame Zhao had humiliated Madam Qin and beat him up before, Linn Changxi would not dare to hit her.
"second uncle is really a coward. After getting beaten up by a woman like that, he doesn't even dare to retaliate!" Hemai sneered at the two's backs.
Mrs Zhao continued to curse incessantly, but Hemai was no longer in the mood to listen to her, she turned back, and looked at Madam Qin worriedly.
"Milk …" She shouted worriedly.
Madam Qin was stunned, her eyes looking straight at where Linn Changxi was standing just now.
"Are you two hungry? Milk, go cook. " she asked the couple as she came back to her senses.
"What are you hungry for? When did we have lunch so early? "Milk, are you alright?"
Madam Qin forced a smile, "Silly child, what's wrong with grandmother? Ah, I haven't finished patching up the clothes in the house, isn't Liulang going to wear them tomorrow? I have to sew it up quickly! "
Madam Qin entered the house, Hemai quickly followed him in.
Now was not the time to talk about Linn Changxi, so Hemai started to talk about this to the old lady.
After a while, Liulang also came in. The two intentionally avoided the matter and chatted happily with the old lady, purposely teasing her to the point of beaming with joy.
Who knew that the next day, just as she finished eating dinner, the old lady packed a small bag and told Hemai that she was going back to the Mao Courtyard.
Hemai was so shocked that she was not willing to let go. "Why do you want to go back? Are you comfortable here? "
"No, foolish child," Madam Qin wanted to say something but hesitated.
"Then what are we going back for!" Hemai stomped her feet, refusing to give in, "Isn't the new house meant for you! Why go back to live? What's so good about a latrine? "Small and broken, all alone …"
"Silly child," Madam Qin lovingly caressed Hemai's face, and looked at Hemai helplessly. "You're not a child, you've already gotten married. How could Grandma always live here? Furthermore, I did not go to a faraway place. I arrived in a few steps.
"I don't care. Since you did nothing, why are you still going back?" Isn't it great to live together! " Hemai became more and more confused.
Madam Qin laughed: "Grandmother's health is still alright! What are you doing eating and drinking for free here? When Grandma can't walk anymore, even if Hemai doesn't want Grandma! "
"Then you are not allowed to leave now!" Hemai resolutely held onto Madam Qin's arm and refused to let go.
Madam Qin patted her face, "Silly Hemai, why are you being so stubborn? You two are better off together than anything else! Liulang is a diligent and kind kid, seeing him treat you so well, I, am more at ease than any rest pills! Besides, there was still a vegetable patch at home. Grandma couldn't possibly ignore it, right? "How about this, grandma goes back to live for a while and finds it boring. Can't you just take it over for grandma?"
Just as Hemai was about to say something, she suddenly saw a mountain slope outside the courtyard opposite of Madam Qin, "Liulang is back."
When Liulang heard that Madam Qin was leaving, he opened his mouth to urge him to stay, but since Madam Qin's attitude was firm, he could only give up. In the end, he could only persuade Madam Qin to stay and eat lunch before leaving.
Hemai looked gloomy, but after thinking about how she was only a few steps away from the old lady, she could only console herself by going over to see her more.
A few days after Madam Qin left, Liulang once again prepared to set off to hunt somewhere further away.
Going out of the courtyard was enough to ease up the family's conditions. Even if Hemai was unwilling to part with them, she kept it in her heart and did not reveal it.
