Her sister, Zheng Quchi, is also someone they can bully!
She knows that although Yaomei has low intelligence, she has always been well-behaved and soft-spoken and never takes the initiative to cause trouble!
If there is a mistake, it is definitely someone else’s fault!
She rushed over in a few steps, grabbed the wrist of one of them pulling Yaomei's braid, and lifted her up.
Her eyes were cold and she bared her fangs: "What are you doing? Bullying, right?"
A shadow fell over the little boy's head. When he looked at the dark face of Mr. Bao, his eyes widened in vain.
"Whoa - the nigger is back, everyone run!"
Zheng Quchi had blue veins protruding from his forehead, these naughty kids.
Running, how can it be so cheap?
With quick eyes and quick hands, she pulled back the running children one by one.
Then with a cold face, he retaliated by making their hair into a mess, and then ordered them to stand there and throw sand at each other, and they had to sing to each other the vicious song they had made up before.
They wouldn't stop until she told her to stop.
Zheng Quchi was very strong and had a ferocious look. Even naughty children were bullies and fearful of evil. How could they dare not obey her threats?
Everyone cried bitterly, but they didn't dare to resist.
The frightened Sang Yaomei finally recovered from "her second brother fell from the sky and punished the people who bullied her on her behalf", and she immediately felt aggrieved.
"Wow ah ah - second brother -"
Sang Yaomei hugged Zheng Quchi and cried until tears and runny nose rubbed her body.
She knelt down and touched her cold little face, wiped her tears, and coaxed in a low voice: "If you don't cry, don't cry. Yaomei, why are you here alone? Where is the elder brother?"
"Big brother, big brother..."
Zheng Quchi was shocked. Could it be that his eldest brother was—
"Bang!" Something was smashed behind him. When Zheng Quchi turned around, he saw the unkempt Brother Sang with an expression of surprise on his face.
"Brother Qing..."
"Brother!"
She happily hugged Sang Yaomei and ran to him. His eyes were red, and he patted her on the shoulder and kept saying: "It'll be good if you come back. It'll be good if you come back."
"Not only am I back, I've also made money. It doesn't matter if our house burns down. I'll build a better house for you to live in." Zheng Quchi hurriedly reported the good news to him.
Brother Sang was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile.
Renovating a house is never that easy.
But he didn't want to dampen her enthusiasm, so he had to respond: "As long as you come back safely, it's okay. The house matter is not urgent. Let's talk about it later."
Not urgent?
This is an urgent matter, okay?
If the house is not repaired, where will they live?
By the way, Zheng Quchi remembered: "Brother, where are you and Yaomei staying these two days?"
Brother Sang's expression froze and he opened his mouth, but couldn't speak for a moment.
On the other hand, Sang Yaomei sobbed and pursed her lips: "My eldest brother and I live in a pig shed. It stinks so bad."
When Zheng Quchi heard this, his heart felt inexplicably painful.
Seeing that Brother Sang's expression suddenly turned awkward and embarrassed, she tried not to show any strange expression.
She rubbed Sang Yaomei's little head and said in a vow-like tone: "With my second brother here, we will have a big house to live in soon. We will have enough food and clothing and live a good life."
After hearing this, Sang Yaomei felt relieved.
"Really? We will have a house to live in, we will be able to eat well, and we will no longer drink water? Yaomei is so happy."
Children are naive and believe whatever they say, but Brother Sang is an adult, and he only takes Brother Qing's words as an excuse to make the child happy.
"The house needs to be renovated, but to put it simply, there will be too much money to spend in the future. Save what you can earn and save it for your future marriage to buy a dowry."
Marry?
He is a very concerned parent.
"Let's talk about this later."
The naughty kid saw them chatting and didn't care about the other one, so he ran away quickly.
Brother Sang knew what had just happened at a glance. He would bring Sang Yaomei to the entrance of the village every day to wait for Brother Qing to come back. Before, Yaomei said she was hungry, so he went to find something to eat. He never thought that she would be killed in such a short time. The children in the village were bullied.
He touched Sang Yaomei's head guiltily: "It's the eldest brother, he's incompetent..."
Zheng Quchi didn't want him to blame himself, so he changed the subject: "Brother, why did the house burn down?"
Brother Sang looked at the entrance of the village and saw that there were gradually people there. He did not answer, but said, "I'll tell you later, let's go first."
——
They returned to the thatched house that had been burned to a pile of ruins. There were a lot of black tattered bowls and sundries piled next to it. This was what Brother Sang went in and took out afterward.
As for other clothing, cotton wool, and wood furniture, they were all burned to the ground.
These days, there is no roof to cover one's head, and it is so cold that people can't breathe as soon as it gets dark.
Brother Sang had a strong self-esteem and was too embarrassed to bring his child to trouble others, so he took Yaomei Sang into the pig shed to escape the cold at night, but he didn't expect that he would arouse all kinds of ridicule and look-downs from the villagers.
But when Zheng Quchi came back, she would never let them live like this again.
She took her eldest brother and Yaomei to the next door and knocked on the door. A young man came out and answered the door.
It was Brother Yang who had given Zheng Quchi a message before.
"Brother Yang, excuse me, but I don't know if your house has any extra rooms. Our house burned down, and my brother, sister, and I would like to borrow it for a while."
Brother Yang was stunned for a moment. He glanced at Brother Sang, his eyes evasive.
"this……"
Zheng Quchi took out a bunch of copper coins.
"Of course, we won't live in vain. I wonder if the money is enough?"
Brother Yang's eyes widened, his expression changed, and he immediately smiled: "There is a room somewhere. Come in quickly. It's very cold outside."
Brother Sang has long experienced the warmth and coldness of human relationships, and he knows that money can make people go around, and money can make people go around.
This time, thanks to Brother Qing, he survived the catastrophe and got a blessing and came back lucky.
His cold expression remained unchanged, and he limped in with an injured leg.
He could suffer and endure the cold, but his two sisters could not. Even though there was an indelible awkwardness and tightening in his heart at this time, he still did not stop Zheng Quchi from using money to trade with acquaintances.
At night, after Zheng Quchi put Sang Yaomei to sleep, he asked Brother Sang: "Brother, can you talk now?"
"Tell brother first, do you have any debts outside?"
"...No." She answered uncertainly.
Brother Sang heard her unconfident answer and let out a long sigh: "The other party saw that he was either rich or noble. He also brought a group of followers who were more powerful than the county soldiers. As soon as he came, he named you and said that you owed him Something set fire to the house when you weren’t around.”
Zheng Quchi was silent for a long time after listening.
She scratched her head and said weakly: "Brother, I don't remember if I owe anyone anything, but don't worry, I promise that this kind of thing will never happen again."
Which god did Brother Qing offend? First of all, excluding the Mo family, it seems impossible to leave Yu Wensheng. Then...only the people from the Julu Kingdom that Qiu mentioned were left...
When he thought of this, Zheng Quchi suddenly stood up.
No way, she is currently struggling to deal with two forces, and now another enemy country has come to join in the fun...
She fell back with a look of despair.
For God's sake, you might as well kill her.
