Tian Chongyijiao

Chapter 136 He Didn't Do It On Purpose
Ye Hongxiu hurriedly let go, but grabbed her wrist and quickly rolled up her sleeves, only to see a big red mark on her arm.

It didn't look like being beaten or pinched, but like being scalded by something hot through the clothes.

"Sister?! The Hai family abused you?!"

Ye Hongxiu was completely shocked, and at the same time, the anger in his heart rose slowly.

The Hai family must be abusing the third sister. They are afraid that the third sister will speak out, so they monitor them so carefully and vigilantly, and threaten the third sister with a ransom of 50 taels.

This was the first thought that popped into Ye Hongxiu's mind.

Ye Zilan seemed to be afraid that Ye Hongxiu would know more, so she hastily withdrew her arm from hers, and even turned her back.

"No, he didn't mean to."

"Him? Who is he? Why is he doing this?"

Seeing the distressed look of the third sister, Ye Hongxiu became even more anxious and went crazy.

"Hongxiu, don't ask any more questions, this matter must not be known to outsiders."

"sister--"

"Sister Hongxiu, you are here!"

Ye Hongxiu's questioning was interrupted by a crisp voice,
The two sisters turned their heads, and a small figure in lake green clothes walked towards them with a tray at the door.

"Xia Tian, ​​why are you here?"

Xia Tian is also from Chimen Village. She is 12 years old today. Both her parents were seriously ill the year before last, and the family sold pots and irons to sell the house and land but failed to cure them.

After the two died, Xia Tian had no place to stay, so she took the initiative to find Ye Zilan and asked her to help her as a bridge, saying that she wanted to work as a maid in the Hai family, so that she, who had no relatives and no reason, could at least have a place to shelter from the wind and rain.

It was indeed Ye Zilan's help that she was able to enter Hai's house, and because of this reason in the same village, she and Ye Zilan were very close at Hai's house.

"Sister Hongxiu came early in the morning. She must be thirsty and hungry. Sit down and have a cup of tea and some snacks."

When Xia Tian put down the tray in his hand, he said it loudly on purpose, then pointed to the outside of the house to them and pointed to his own ears, indicating that the partition wall has ears.

"Sister, you have to tell me what's going on!"

Ye Hongxiu now feels that this matter is not simple.

"Hongxiu, I really can't say, this matter is related to the entire Hai family, don't worry, there is only half a year left, I can get through it, and, he hurt me, really didn't mean it, don't believe me, you can ask Xia Tian .”

"Sister Hongxiu, what sister Zilan said is true, he didn't mean it."

Xia Tian on the side nodded again and again.

"Can……"

Ye Hongxiu had a deeper question in his heart, but Ye Zilan interrupted him as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Hongxiu, don't ask any more questions. My sister is very happy that you can come to see her specially, really! What I said to you that night was just a moment of anger, so don't take it to heart.

It's getting late, go back quickly! "

Ye Zilan didn't intend to say more.

Ye Hongxiu also knew that no matter how much she asked now, she couldn't ask anything. She didn't say anything at home, and she couldn't say anything when someone was watching at Hai's house.

"Okay then! I'll come to see you when I'm free in two days."

Ye Hongxiu will not be able to figure out the situation for a while, and Ye Hongxiu plans to come a few more times in the future, so that he can always find some clues.

"Well! I'll take you out."

After coming out of Hai's house, Ye Hongxiu didn't go home in a hurry but went to Bailu Academy. She wanted to ask her second elder brother Ye Ligang. He met the third sister in the county town more often than she and her mother. Maybe he would know some situations.
