"Okay, I'll go find Mingli first. After I give her an explanation, we'll go find Xia Kai. Mom, you go see Xia Tian later and treat her better." Zhong Minglou told Father Zhong Zhong Mu said.
Zhong's mother agreed perfunctorily, and when she saw Zhong Minglu had gone out, she said to Zhong's father in a dissatisfied tone, "Old Zhong, you said that Xia Tian's disease is probably incurable. If you ask me, with Yingying here, Xia Kai We can’t deny our relative, as long as we continue to mess with her medicine..."
"Shut up, you are such a mouthful. You can say anything. Just know it in your heart. If you have to say it, the medicine you gave her is an old-fashioned medicine. It hurts the liver and kidneys. She has been taking it for so long. Now, can it be cured? It's a miracle that it has been delayed until today. I asked you to throw away the medicine, did you throw it away?" Father Zhong said in a low voice.
"Throw it away. You said that there are many people in this large army and you are afraid of being noticed. I just disposed of all those medicines at the place where we just met this large army." Mother Zhong said in a low voice.
"There are not only many people in this large army, but also many practitioners. Who knows if there are people who are capable and nosy? After such a long time, her body has already collapsed. She is holding on for breath, but she is worried about the child. That's all, even if the gods are alive, they can't save her, so don't add any unnecessary extravagance and expose the truth again!" Father Zhong scolded in a low voice.
"Okay, okay, by the way, Yingying needs to give her instructions. Although she didn't see how her grandma and grandpa died, she knows that our family has stayed at her grandma's house. She also knows that this child was born by Mingli. You know, I'll go talk to Xia Tian and ask her to teach the child well." Mother Zhong suddenly thought that Zhong Yingying was almost eight years old and already knew a lot of things.
"Be polite to Xia Tian. Now you have to rely on my younger brother. Don't embarrass her." Father Zhong warned.
"I know, no one is too nagging." The child in Mother Zhong's arms struggled a few times and started crying again.
"Mingli hasn't come back yet. The child is hungry and anxious. He can't coax him without feeding." Mother Zhong walked around with the child in her arms.
Zhong Yingying, who was eavesdropping outside the tent, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, bent down, and ran away cautiously.
Zhong Yingying, who returned to the tent, couldn't help but have red eyes when she looked at the weak Xia Tian. She knew why her grandparents wanted to kill her mother. Her grandmother threatened to sell her several times. It was not just talk, she really wanted to However, just because her mother was here, she still had worries. After her mother fell ill, she was unable to go out to work, and her grandmother disliked them even more. She always felt that her father could not take care of their family wholeheartedly while she and her mother were here. She He and his mother are a thorn in grandma's side.
"Yingying, what's going on? Who bullied you?" Xia Tian asked distressedly, looking at her daughter who was shedding tears.
"Mom, tell your uncle what happened to grandma and grandpa. Don't lie to your uncle with your father." Zhong Yingying said.
"Yingying, mother told you before that grandma and grandpa just got separated from us..."
"I know they are dead, they died in front of their home." Zhong Yingying didn't want to listen to Xia Tian's lies, so she interrupted her coldly.
"Yingying, you, how did you..." Xia Tian looked at her daughter with a sad face in shock.
"How do I know? I'm not stupid. Just because I can't see doesn't mean I can't hear. Mom, have you forgotten how their family treated us and how they treated grandma and grandpa? Now that my uncle is still alive, you should Tell uncle all this and ask him to support us." Zhong Yingying looked at Xia Tian, who was in much better spirits than the previous few days, thinking about the conversation she just overheard in the tent over there, and felt uneasy in her heart.
"No, no, it's mom who didn't take good care of your grandma and grandpa. It's mom who dragged them down. If I tell the truth, your uncle won't forgive me." Xia Tian shook his head and said.
"Then if you don't tell me, I have to say, I can't just watch them take advantage of my uncle." Zhong Yingying said with a frown.
"Yingying, if we know that your grandparents are gone, your uncle may not care about the relationship between siblings, and he has offended your father and his family. Then we will have no way out. Let's take a look at you first. Uncle's attitude towards us will determine whether to tell the truth or not. You stay by my side and don't talk nonsense, you know?" Xia Tian grabbed Zhong Yingying's hand and warned.
Seeing that Xia Tian was out of breath due to anxiety, Zhong Yingying quickly nodded.
But when she turned around, somewhere where Xia Tian couldn't see, Zhong Yingying's eyes were filled with panic.
Zhong Minglu left the tent to look for Zhong Mingli. While wandering around the camp looking for someone, he saw many people gathered around the northeast corner.
"Brother Xia Kai, I am Mingli. You came to my house for my mother's birthday last year. Don't you remember me?" Zhong Mingli shouted.
As soon as Xia Kai arrived at Shen Lishu's team to inspect the situation, he was blocked by Zhong Mingli. When Zhong Mingli was just wandering around this area, she took a fancy to Shen Lishu, who was delicate, white, and gentle. When she saw Xia Kai and Shen Lishu, they With a very familiar look, Gaoxing stepped forward to say hello to Xia Kai.
Xia Kai looked at Zhong Mingli who suddenly appeared, frowning and thinking. He really had no impression of Zhong Mingli, but this girl knew his name and seemed to know him.
"You really don't remember me? Your sister is my sister-in-law. After the apocalypse, we went to live at your house." When Zhong Mingli blurted out these words, Zhong Minglu happened to walk up to her.
"Mingli." Zhong Minglou looked ugly and wanted to stop him, but it was too late.
"Brother, you came just in time. Brother Xia Kai didn't recognize me. Do you think he did it on purpose? Brother Xia Kai, my brother, your brother-in-law, you must have known each other, right?" Zhong Mingli was a little confused because of Xia Kai's reaction. Angry, he didn't even notice that Zhong Minglou looked wrong.
"You have been to my house after the apocalypse, so are my parents with you now?" When Xia Kai saw Zhong Minglou, he finally knew who this girl was.
"Why are we together? Your parents have been eaten by monsters a long time ago." Seeing that Xia Kai clearly recognized her, but had no intention of apologizing for his rudeness just now, Zhong Mingli felt a little dissatisfied and blurted out a sentence.
"Mingli, what are you talking about?" Seeing Xia Kai's expression suddenly change, Zhong Minglu yelled at his sister.
Zhong Mingli pouted and muttered in a low voice, "Why am I talking nonsense? Why is it so fierce?"
"Is what she said true? Where is my sister?" Xia Kai's voice was trembling when he spoke, and he looked at Zhong Minglou with an unkind look.
