But after her eldest cousin-in-law married in, she began to bully her.

She always took advantage of her uncle and the others to scold her for being an unmarried old woman, occupying her house, eating her family's food, and spending her family's money.

She also said, don’t think that she can just stay here because her uncle and aunt are good to her. Do you want to steal her man?

Bai Chuntao was so angry that she almost vomited blood. If it had been anyone else, she would have slapped her to death.

But the person in front of her is the daughter-in-law of her uncle and aunt, the daughter-in-law of her beloved cousin, the sister-in-law of her second and third cousins, and the future head of the family.

Not only could she not make a move, she could not even talk back, nor could she file a complaint, lest she be accused of stirring up trouble and destroy her friendship with her uncle, aunt, and family.

Seeing her like this, her eldest cousin-in-law became even more aggressive and said that she would find an old man to marry for her old aunt.

When she was so angry that Mrs. Yu came to her door. When she heard her proposal, she immediately agreed.

Instead of marrying an old man after breaking up with her eldest cousin-in-law, she might as well marry into the Xiang family.

What's more, she likes the family atmosphere of the Xiang family. Even if she doesn't like the third Xiang, she still wants to marry him.

Marrying is not necessarily about loving a man, but about wanting a family, wanting to live an upright life, and no longer depending on others.

She has always been strong, working hard, and resisting.

She didn't expect that this man who had been beaten countless times by her would actually come to comfort her.

Bai Chuntao really didn't collapse. Whether it was for the first half of her life or for the injured Xiao Qi, she needed someone to comfort her.

Xiang Renyong listened to her suppressed cries and did not dare to coax her any more. He only stroked her hair and patted her back to comfort her.

Xiang Ling glanced here, then looked back lightly, and saw Xiang Xinbin looking in the direction of the two people.

Binbin looked in the direction of Xiang Renyong and Bai Chuntao for more than ten seconds before looking away, and then met Xiang Ling's gaze.

Xiang Ling walked up to him expressionlessly, stretched out her hand towards him, and looked at him quietly.

Binbin glanced in Xiang Renyong's direction again before extending his hand to Xiang Ling's.

Xiang Ling held Binbin's hand tightly and stood outside the crowd, like an outsider. Looking at this warm and noisy courtyard, the two siblings remained silent.

In fact, they all understood that even if Hong Yingjun didn't use force on Xiao Qi, their mother's temperament would still cause a lot of trouble later.

Grandparents can look at their face once or twice, but if the times are too many and the matter becomes serious, they will no longer tolerate it.

If that happens, no one knows what the consequences will be.

Rather than that, it's better to reconcile. At least they still have their father and mother alive, that's all.

The villagers who came down from the mountain together breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that it was not people from outside the village who were attacking their village.

He was only half relaxed, but when he heard that Xiao Qi was injured, he raised his breath again and started whispering.

"Li Zheng is back!"

"I'm glad they're back."

Ye Kai and the others came back from Gaojia Village. As soon as they entered the village, they heard someone from the patrol saying that something had happened to their family.

They rushed over quickly and saw a bunch of people standing inside and outside the courtyard. Their hearts, which were already beating wildly, almost jumped out of their throats.

"Xiao Bai, you are back, hurry up, Xiao Qi is injured."

The villagers voluntarily made way for them.

Xiang Xinbai rushed into the courtyard at night and looked at Xiao Qi, who was lying on the bamboo bed with his head bandaged and his face scratched, embarrassed and scarred. His pupils instantly turned red and he staggered.

The firelight flickered and shone on Ye Kai's face, as if two evil spirits were tearing him apart, causing him pain until his whole body would burst.

This dilapidated person looks like a piece of clothing discarded in the mud. Is this his Xiao Qi?

Xiang Xinbai also looked at the lifeless person in disbelief and whispered: "Xiao Qi!"

His Xiao Qi is the most naughty. Every time he comes back, she rushes over with joy and hugs his arm, shaking her and asking him what he brought.

But now Xiao Qi is lying there quietly, motionless.

Xiang Xinjin was a step late and looked at the person on the bamboo bed. He opened his lips slightly and his face turned pale.

Mr. Xiang was breathing heavily, holding a villager's shoulder, and looked at Xiao Qi quietly, the pain in his eyes lingering for a long time.

Erya looked at the scarred person on the bamboo bed, and then at everyone here. She was panicked and scared.

Will their family blame Xiao Qi's injury on her, saying that they brought bad luck to Xiao Qi?

What should she do now to make them believe that she is praying to Master Guanyin in her heart to keep this family safe and healthy?

After Mr. Xiang learned what happened, he advised the villagers to leave and leave all matters to the elders. He wanted to take care of the family.

The clan elders couldn't do anything else except comfort him that Xiao Qi would be fine, so they left.

When all the villagers dispersed, the Xiang family remained silent.

Erya and Four Ya and Five Ya huddled in the corner, not daring to make a sound. They were so quiet that they almost didn't even breathe.

"Did you just say that Xiao Qi had been injured a few times?" Xiang Xinjin, who was inspecting the broken threshing bucket, suddenly spoke up.

Xiang Wan counted one by one: "I was hooked once by a hook, twice by a gong and a hammer. I was hit by flying branches... but not hit, three times."

"The toilet collapsed, four times, and the threshing bucket collapsed, the fifth time. Five times, five times in total."

"Injured five times in half an hour."

Ye Kai hurriedly came to Xiang Xinjin and said in an anxious tone, "What's wrong? Can't we enter the house?"

In the small courtyard, there were branches falling from the sky, and in the house, there was a threshing bucket that suddenly collapsed.

To be conservative, just put Xiao Qi in the yard. At least it's safe now.

But it would be too suffocating to be unable to enter the house after the sun came out. The sunshine was not something Xiao Qi could bear.

Xiang Xinjin's eyes slowly swept across everyone, then to Erya and the others, and then back to Xiang Ci: "Xiaoqi's health was always poor when he was a child, and he had many accidents."

The whole family looked at him, waiting for his next sentence, but Xiang Xinjin suddenly stopped talking.

Xiang Xinbai was very irritable: "What next?"

Xiang Xinjin looked at Doctor Xiang Ling: "Brother Zhong, I want to trouble you with something."

Doctor Xiang Ling, who had not left yet, heard Xiang Xinjin ask for help for the first time, and quickly nodded in agreement: "Yes, you say."

Xiang Xinjin pointed to the Erya and San sisters: "We have just obtained their divorce letters and surname letters. Now their surname is not Gao, but Feng."

"I would like to ask you to take the three sisters to worship at the Empress's temple, and ask the Purifying Vase Empress to take care of the three or five of them."

Doctor Xiang Ling was confused for a moment, but he agreed immediately: "Okay."

After reacting, he frowned slightly. Are he going to send away the two sisters? How long will it take for me to let them back?

Don't dare to ask.

If no one comes during lunch, let them wait at the Empress Temple until dawn before coming back.
