I don't know if it was Qiao Wanyue's illusion, but I always felt that Xia Lan breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this.

Dong Hai's expression suddenly changed. Qiao Guangde was worried that he would become angry and attack, so he quickly put down what he was doing and protected Qiao Wanyue.

This was the Qiao family. Dong Hai didn't dare to hit anyone. He was worried that Qiao Wanyue would tell the story, so he said a few harsh words.

"Qiao Wanyue, I don't care about you as a little girl, but if you dare to talk nonsense, don't blame me for being rude."

He didn't care about Xia Lan anymore. He snorted and turned around and left, thinking that he would take care of Xia Lan when he got back.

Xia Lan was very apologetic when her husband spoke like this: "Wanyue, I'm sorry, that's just the temper he has."

Qiao Wanyue shook her head and said indifferently: "It's okay. I've already guessed that he would be angry. I've seen people like him a lot. He is usually more capable of bullying you. He can only say a few harsh words outside."

Two simple sentences summed up Xia Lan's life. Her nose was sore and she choked: "Did you see it?"

Dong Hai really didn't have much ability outside, but at home he yelled at her and punched her and her children.

Qiao Wanyue didn't care that Dong Hai was Xia Lan's husband, and directly insulted him: "Fear comes from the heart. One look at his sinister appearance and you will know that he usually bullies you."

Xia Lan sniffed. Instead of chasing Dong Hai, she chatted with the Qiao family and her daughter about their life in the past few years.

She couldn't rely on her mother's family, no one supported her, and she had no friends. She usually took care of the housework and did farm work with her children. Now in front of the Qiao family and her daughter, she really couldn't hold back her tears.

Sobbed: "He said that my stomach was not good enough, so I gave him a defective child. He couldn't have another child. There were a few times when he sent me back to my parents' house and got the bride price back."

"Actually, I brought him to see a doctor, not because I wanted him to be cured, but because I wanted him and his family to know that the problem lies with him and treat us well in the future. From the bottom of my heart, I don't want to give birth to him again. Regarding children, I hate Dong Hai. If it weren’t for children, I wouldn’t want to live.”

When Qiao Guangde heard this, he quickly tried to persuade her: "Lan Lan, you can't just think about it. If you really can't survive, just leave. You can commit suicide."

He also watched Xia Lan grow up, so when Xia Lan got married, although Qiao Guangde had no money, he still spent money to buy her a quilt and treated her as half a daughter.

After living a long life, Qiao Guangde also understood that compared with death, what is divorce?
Xia Lan smiled bitterly: "Uncle Qiao, you also know the situation of my natal family. If I get divorced, where else can I go?"

She couldn't let go of the child, and besides, Dong Hai would never let her go.

Qiao Wanyue felt that Xia Lan's thoughts were too pedantic: "You are so young, why are you not as forward-thinking as my dad? After the divorce, you go to the city to find a job. It is much better than staying at your parents' house to look at people's faces. You are the only man With that kind of temper, you might be beaten again if you go back at night, right?"

Xia Lan didn't refute. Qiao Wanyue was right. She would definitely be beaten when she went back. She couldn't escape anyway. She might as well stay here for a while and catch up with them.

She broke the jar and said, "This is my fate for the rest of my life."

"That's not necessarily true." Qiao Wanyue saw that she didn't have the courage to divorce, so she blinked and whispered a few words into her ear.

Xia Lan's eyes widened in horror: "Is this okay?"

Qiao Wanyue smiled evilly: "No matter how hard you try, remember, your expression must be cold and your tone firm. You are not afraid of death anyway. What are you afraid of?"

Xia Lan hesitated for a while and wiped away her tears before nodding: "Wanyue, I don't want to go back tonight. Can I stay with you for one night?"

"Okay." Qiao Wanyue smiled: "I didn't plan to let you go back in the first place, and I was worried that you would insist on going back. I don't know if you have read the newspaper. There have been several murders here. A girl of our age is The target of the murderer, it is best not to go out alone at night, otherwise it will be bad if you are unlucky enough to meet the murderer."

Xia Lan breathed a sigh of relief: "We haven't chatted together for a long time. You are getting more and more beautiful now, but I have become a rural woman. I am worried that you will dislike me." "How can that be possible? We grew up together. , you are my best friend."

Qiao Wanyue has the memory of the original person and knows that Xia Lan is the original person's best friend, so she is still very friendly to Xia Lan.

Qiao Guangde didn't know what Qiao Wanyue said in Xia Lan's ear. It was a whisper between the two girls, and he didn't ask.

"It's hot in the kitchen. Stop standing here. Go inside and blow on the fan."

Xia Lan felt embarrassed and wanted to help wash the dishes, but was pulled to the house by Qiao Wanyue.

"You have worked hard at your mother-in-law's house. Now that you have chosen to go back to your mother-in-law's house, you should have a good day off!"

Xia Lan felt warm in her heart. The warmth she had felt since childhood was all given by the Qiao family's father and daughter.

Back in the house, Qiao Wanyue turned on the fan, which made the earthen house even cooler when it was already shady.

When she heard that the Qiao family was going to build a courtyard house, she thought it was a rumor, but now that she saw Qiao Wanyue buying such a good fan, she believed it.

"Wanyue, does your family really want to build a house?"

Qiao Wanyue nodded: "Build a courtyard house. If you live in this mud house for a long time, you will easily get rheumatism."

Xia Lan envied: "Is it easy to find a job in the city? For someone like me who knows nothing, will I not be able to find a job in the city?"

"Do you want to go?" Qiao Wanyue promised: "As long as you are willing to go, the work will be taken care of by me."

Xia Lan is only a year or two older than Qiao Wanyue, and she is also a young girl in her early twenties. In the 23rd century, she would still be studying at this age.

I still yearn for the outside world.

Xia Lan's bright eyes dimmed: "I think about it, but I don't know anything, and my mother-in-law is not willing to help take care of the child. If I go, what will happen to the child? He is so young, and the children in the same village and the mother-in-law My sister-in-law and her children are bullying him, how helpless would he be if I wasn't around?"

amount……

There is nothing Qiao Wanyue can do.

"Okay, just follow the advice I taught you. Your in-laws will definitely not dare to blatantly bully you. Whenever you want to find a job in the city, just come to me."

Qiao Wanyue left the clinic address to Xia Lan.

"Wanyue, thank you." Xia Lan clutched the address Qiao Wanyue gave her tightly, feeling extremely moved.

At night, the two of them lay in bed and kept reminiscing about their childhood. Qiao Wanyue casually asked Xia Lan if she knew about her life experience. Xia Lan was very surprised.

"Wanyue, do you understand?"

Qiao Wanyue nodded: "My dad just told me tonight."

Now that she already knew, Xia Lan didn't hide it: "When I was a child, I heard from adults that others secretly called Uncle Qiao a fool and ran away for your wife. They felt that raising a wife and niece is better than raising an outsider. Be nice.”
