Widow Wang was anxious and angry. Wang Qiulian had always been strong-willed and willful. In the past, Widow Wang thought her daughter was very much like herself when she was young.

But now it seems that Wang Qiulian is competitive, but she is too ignorant of the current situation and extremely conceited!

where is this place?

Is it possible for her to act wildly?

Didn’t you see that the soldiers’ hands had already grasped the hilt of the knife, and it seemed that they were about to swing the knife to chop at you in the next moment!

After hearing her son's questioning, Widow Wang burst into tears, but this was not the place to be sentimental, so she could only speak in the most vicious tone of her life and whispered in Wang Qiulian's ear:

"Listen carefully! If I let go of you and you scream again, I'll find someone to sell you out!"

Wang Qiulian’s eyes suddenly widened, she stared at her mother blankly, forgetting to breathe!

While she was stunned, Widow Wang dragged the person out.

Wang Zhong followed behind, and his gaze towards Wang Qiulian became increasingly cold.

This little sister has been very smart since she was young. She could talk and walk earlier than other children of the same age. Sometimes she would fall down accidentally and get hurt, but she would never cry loudly. She would always get up quickly and practice harder.

She was also very clingy to her brother, following him around and calling him all the best. Wang Zhong seldom went home, and Wang Qiulian was so sweet to him, so he was very protective of his only sister.

But since when did my sister become so willful and stubborn?

She is not even of marriageable age yet, but she is already as sarcastic and mean as an old lady!

The three of them went home in silence. After they entered the house, Widow Wang waited until Wang Zhong closed the door before she let go of Wang Qiulian.

Wang Qiulian was like a deflated ball, unable to walk steadily. Fortunately, Widow Wang saw that something was wrong with her and helped her onto a chair, otherwise she would have collapsed to the ground.

Wang Zhong walked towards his house without saying a word.

"Zhong'er!" Widow Wang was panicking. She called out to her son, "It's all my fault. I will teach your sister a lesson in the future."

Wang Zhong paused, didn't answer, and continued walking forward until he entered the house and closed the door!

Widow Wang sat down on the stone bench and rubbed her chest. It felt like a thousand-pound stone was pressing down on her chest, making it hard for her to breathe!

"Mom, are you really going to sell me out?"

She didn't know how long it had been before she heard Wang Qiulian's voice in her ears, as ethereal as the morning mist that could not see the sun.

Widow Wang stared at her daughter. This little face, which she had seen day and night, suddenly became strange!

"Do you think that this is all Qingshuang's fault and that you have been wronged?" asked Widow Wang.

Wang Qiulian lowered her head again, and after a moment she replied, "I am willing to admit my mistake to her, but she is the one hiding from people!"

"I have already explained the truth to you. Since you won't listen, I won't waste my words. You just need to remember one thing. From tomorrow on, you are not allowed to go out without a reason. Even if you go out, you are not allowed to mention Qing Shuang. If I find out, I will sell you out immediately!"

Widow Wang was exhausted: "How did your brother treat you in the past? Now you repay him like this. Without your brother's support, you will never have a smooth life. This is the retribution you deserve!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the door of Wang Zhong's house was opened again. Widow Wang and Wang Qiulian looked over with hope, but when they saw clearly what Wang Zhong was holding in his hand, they all stood up with a bang!

"Zhong'er, what are you doing..."

"Brother!" Wang Qiulian's voice trembled and changed tone!

"We will move out the day after tomorrow. There are many trivial matters in the tent, so I will go back to the tent." Wang Zhong took the package and took two steps forward. He took out a stack of silver bills from his pocket and placed them on the stone table:

"This is my salary for this year. The general and his wife knew I was going home, so they gave me another two hundred taels. It's all here. Keep it well. Don't work too hard when I'm not home!"

Wang Zhong glanced at his mother and said, "Mom, don't wear these patched clothes all the time. I know our family is not that poor. You don't have to suffer so much. Don't work too hard in the future. I can't be filial to you in front of you, so take care of yourself!"

Widow Wang's heart was like it was boiling in a frying pan, fried dry, so empty that she couldn't breathe, and it seemed as if there were wind leaking out from all directions.

"Zhong'er, you...you make me anxious when I hear what you say. Can't you stay for two more days?" Widow Wang hasn't seen her son for more than a year. They have only been together for two days and now they have to say goodbye again. How can she not feel sad?

"No, people like us who have responsibilities are not allowed to stay at home. It is the general's special grace that allows me to go home for two days. I can't be so rude!" Wang Zhong looked calm and official.

Widow Wang couldn't help herself and went forward to hug Wang Zhong: "Son, I'm old now, and I'll see you less and less. Don't be so cruel!"

Wang Qiulian also reached out and grabbed Wang Zhong's hand: "Brother, my mother and I have been looking forward to your return home for a long time. You can stay at home for two more days. My mother and I will make you something delicious!"

Wang Zhong shook his hand lightly and held the widow Wang's shoulder: "Mother, live a good life at home, don't be reluctant to spend money on food and clothes. Your son's salary is not small now, and there is no place to spend money in the army, so don't be too hard on yourself."

As he said this, he gently pushed Widow Wang away, picked up the package and strode towards the door!

Widow Wang knew she couldn't keep her son, so she could only shout from behind: "I'll cook some delicious food and send it to your tent tomorrow!"

"No need, the camp is heavily guarded, no outsiders are allowed in or out, I can't break the rules!"

Wang Zhong was not saying this out of anger, this was indeed the rule in the army.

Among the soldiers who followed Ning Weizhou to Xishu, there were also several soldiers from Qingshan City. They were only allowed to go home to visit their families, but at the appointed time, they had to return to the camp to stay, not to mention bringing their families to the camp.

This is a violation of military regulations, and the penalty is at least twenty beatings with military sticks and half the life lost!

"Brother, are you angry that I ruined your relationship with Qingshuang? So you don't want this family anymore, don't want your mother anymore? In your heart, is Qingshuang more important than your mother?" Wang Qiulian suddenly shouted at Wang Zhong who was walking out of the door:

"A woman who doesn't care about you is worth you abandoning the mother who gave birth to you and raised you? It doesn't matter if you hate me, but you can't hurt my heart!"

Wang Zhong paused and turned back, his eyes falling on Wang Qiulian. Widow Wang quickly tried to smooth things over:

"Zhong'er, your sister..."

Before she could continue, Wang Zhong said, "Qiulian, you are not young anymore. In two years, you will be old enough to get married. If you still blame others for everything, you will never live a happy life!"

Wang Qiulian had never heard such harsh words before. How was this different from cursing her?

What's more, these words came from the mouth of her always respected brother, which made her heart hurt a thousand times more!

"Brother, you have changed!" Wang Qiulian shouted sharply!
