"Xiaomeng, come, drink some water." Grandma Chen brought a glass of water to feed her.

Tian Xiaomeng looked at the benevolent short old lady, her eyebrows curving up. "Elder, where did my mother go? Did something happen to my father?"

Seeing that she was able to speak, Grandma Chen was overjoyed. "Take good care of your injuries, your father is fine."

It was just a little girl, what use was there telling her? It would only increase her sadness. It would be better to let her take care of her wounds, so that the married couple would be able to feel a lot more at ease.

A day passed. Mrs. Liu did not return, nor did Tian Youfeng.

Two days later, the couple still had not returned.

Grandma Chen was extremely anxious.

He had to go to Tian Ersheng. "Ersheng, did you hear anything? If there was a message, he wouldn't really be coming back."

"Elder, it's Ministry Councillor Liu who isn't letting go now. He insists that Uncle Fa's life is in exchange for Uncle Fa's, what do you think we should do?" The last time Ersheng went to the county, he heard the latest news from the county.

This news had become a hot topic in the county.

Some people felt that losing their lives was too cruel. In the future, which doctor would dare to treat someone?

Some people felt that it was reasonable. In the future, anyone with even a bit of medical skills would dare to seek medical treatment for others. That was a matter of life and death.

"He's a good person if there's an accident, why would such a thing happen to him when he's fine?" Grandma Chen sighed.

"That's right, why would a person as good as Uncle Qian have such an incident?" Ersheng sighed. He looked at the small wooden bed and asked with concern, "Is Xiaomeng still not awake?"

"She's awake. The poor child's wounds are all over. Seeing her like this, I didn't dare to tell her. She's covered in wounds now, so what if I told her?" Grandma Chen sighed. They were all pitiful people.

I only hope that the heavens have eyes, to protect a peaceful family.

"Old Lady Chen, what are you doing in front of my son's house?" A woman's voice sounded full of vigor. Grandma Chen heard the voice and immediately looked Ersheng in the eye. A bitter smile appeared on her face. She didn't know why Mrs. Lee was here at this time.

Mrs. Lee did have a woman in her fifties with a wide face and square forehead. She was tall and muscular.

The person who came with her was Tian Zongmin, Tian Youfeng's father.

Tian Youfeng's father was a half-crippled man who had fallen and broken his legs when Tian Xiaomeng was born. For this reason, the Tian family was extremely dissatisfied with Tian Xiaomeng's birth and thought that she was a lost cause. They had asked Tian Youfeng to send Tian Xiaomeng away.

Tian Youfeng and his wife disagreed and were chased out by Tian Zongmin.

Coupled with Tian You's knowledge and a few words, he had learned a bit of medical skills from an old man in the village. After the old man had passed away, he started to treat the villagers in the neighboring villages.

The family's life was also pretty good.

If Tian YouFa's father and mother didn't cause trouble, their days would truly be sweet and precious.

"What do you mean your son's door is also in front of my house?" The two families lived next door to each other, right next to the door.

"Tsk, where's that girl, Xiaomeng, let her out." Mrs. Lee didn't want to waste words with Grandma Chen, "His father had raised him so much, and now that his father is in trouble, shouldn't she stand up for him?"

The moment Grandma Chen heard their tone, she knew that Mrs. Lee and his wife already knew about the incident that had happened in the county.

That's right. Such a huge matter had been spread all over the village. It would be hard for the couple not to know about it.

"Tian Er, Tian Er's wife. Xiaomeng fell off the mountain two days ago and is currently recuperating. How can a little girl help?" Tian Zongmin was ranked second in the Tian Family. Grandma Chen had a higher position, so she called him Lao Er.

"He fell?" Mrs. Lee snorted coldly, "This lost star, ever since we were born, we have been getting rich day by day. Not only can we not recruit a younger brother, we don't even have a younger sister, and we don't know what our Tian Family owed her in our previous lives. Why didn't you throw her to death? "

Tian Xiaomeng was lying on the bed resting with her eyes closed.

After lying in bed for the past two days and taking some medicine, her body had almost healed.

Listening to the harsh and sarcastic voices outside, some familiar things were continuously transmitted into her mind.

Only after a long while did he finally regain consciousness.

The old woman outside the door was referring to her.

"Tian Er's wife, you can't do this, Xiaomeng is still injured." Mrs. Lee picked up a broom from the side and entered the room. She then called out to Tian Xiaomeng who was lying on the bed.

Grandma Chen didn't expect that she would suddenly make such a move. She couldn't stop it in time.

"What can she fall to at such a young age? I think she's probably faking her death. Even if she had a hair on her head, she would have already died. She's still slacking off here. See if I beat her up or not." One by one, the broom solidly hit her body, causing Tian Xiaomeng to groan in pain.

If it weren't for the fact that her body was injured so badly that she couldn't get up from the bed, Mrs. Lee wouldn't have had the chance to hit her.

Now, it was the same as the fish on the chopping board, allowing people to knead it whether it was round or flat.

"I let you be lazy, I let you be lazy." Mrs. Lee's beating seemed to not be able to calm down her breathing. After a few heavy blows, some blood seeped out from quite a few places on Tian Xiaomeng's leg.

Alright, so what if you beat her to death? She looks pretty old, isn't Ministry Councillor Liu dead … First Aunt, in my opinion, I think we should just give her to Ministry Councillor Liu as an aunt. Firstly, we should be fine even if we have some issues, and secondly, we should find a good home for this damned girl. Tian Zongmin looked at the blood seeping out of Tian Xiaomeng's leg and took a drag from his pipe.

If not for having such a daughter, would such a thing have happened today?

"Hmph." Mrs. Lee threw away the broom in her hand and sat down in front of Tian Xiaomeng. Looking at the half-opened face of Tian Xiaomeng, the hatred in her heart grew.

This damned girl, she should've insisted on throwing her away then, as well as that degenerate Mrs. Liu. If it wasn't for that, how could she still have not given birth to a star and a half and still have the chance to divide up with her old Tian family?

She had almost forgotten that they were the ones who had chased Tian Youfeng out.

He used his hand to poke Tian Xiaomeng's face. "You short-lived girl, this face is finally of some use now. Wake up, don't play dead here."

Tian Xiaomeng had to pretend that she couldn't sleep after being poked by her.

A pair of eyes suddenly opened.

Her eyes were gorgeous and cold.
