Chapter 41

“The big-butt woman later had several trysts with the landlord Bai, and she also said that she had given birth to another son for him. The landlord Bai wanted to take the son back to raise, but the woman did not agree, and the two of them stopped communicating later.”

The old camphor tree muttered, and Ruan Qiqi’s heart skipped a beat. She suddenly thought of something.

Old man Ruan was so cold to Ruan Dad, and he didn’t seem like his biological father at all. Could it be that Ruan Dad was the landlord Bai’s son?

Because he knew that he was not his biological son, he was so cruel, so this explained it.

Ruan Qiqi frowned, and felt very sympathetic to Ruan Dad. Since he was a child, his father didn’t love him, and he relied on himself to make a name for himself, but he still couldn’t fight against God and died in his early forties.

However, Old Lady Ruan also indirectly did a good thing. If the landlord Bai really let Ruan Dad take her back, she would be the landlord’s child now.

Ruan Qiqi’s mind moved, and her eyes lit up. She thought of a good way to take revenge on Ruan Guiming.

Ruan Dad and Ruan Guiming are only one year apart in age. There is no paternity test now, and even Old Lady Ruan herself may not know who the father of these two sons is. Maybe they are all the sons of the white landlord?

After all, Old Man Ruan is not as brave as the white landlord, and the vitality of the tadpole must not be very good, and he can’t beat the white landlord.

As long as Ruan Guiming is labeled as a landlord, he will never be able to turn over.

Ruan Qiqi already has a general plan in mind. After thinking about the details after returning, he can implement it.

“Second sister, have you rested?”

Ruan Xiaoxue called.

“Okay.”

Ruan Qiqi said goodbye to the old camphor tree. The old camphor tree was reluctant to leave and asked her to come and chat with it in the evening.

“Okay, I will definitely come in the evening.”

Ruan Qiqi agreed. She wanted to dig gold bars, and she had to find out if the white landlord had any birthmarks or moles.

The two sisters entered the village together. There were many people working in the fields by the roadside.

“Bai Sanyuan, what are you doing so slowly? You are holding the whole team back. You lazy landlord should be punished!” A very arrogant scolding came from the field.

Ruan Qiqi looked over and saw that the man being scolded was a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties, with a hunched back, thin and gentle, looking like a teacher. He did not dare to talk back after being scolded, but kept smiling and trying to speed up his work.

This Bai Sanyuan was the son of the landlord Bai. He looked a bit like Ruan’s father and Ruan Guiming. After all, they were born of the same mother.

Ruan Qiqi smiled. This made it easier to handle.

“Bai Huanxi’s father is actually a good person. The one who scolded others is the bad one. He is Li Hailiang’s cousin. Their whole family is bad.”

Ruan Xiaoxue was indignant. She had a good relationship with Bai Sanyuan’s daughter Bai Huanxi.

No one in the village played with the landlord’s son. Ruan Xiaoxue didn’t know Bai Huanxi. Once, she went to the commune to buy something. On the way, she got her period and her pants were soiled. It was Bai Huanxi who reminded her and gave her toilet paper to avoid making a bigger fool of herself.

Since then, Ruan Xiaoxue has been familiar with Bai Huanxi and often plays together.

She also likes Bai Sanyuan very much. She thinks he is very kind and not a bad person. Unlike other landlords who are bad, Bai Sanyuan is very good to the farmhands. He never deducts wages. When it is busy in the farming season, he stews meat for the farmhands. He is very kind.

Moreover, Bai Huanxi said that in the past, when someone in the village was sick and had no money to treat, her father would lend money. The money he lent was basically never returned, and her father never chased the debt, but some of those who borrowed money and didn’t pay it back were the ones who bullied her father the most, and they always beat him to death.

Fortunately, there are still some people who remember the kindness and help secretly, so her father was not bullied to death.

“Bai Huanxi is Bai Sanyuan’s daughter?”

Ruan Qiqi became interested. The original body did not tell her that Ruan Xiaoxue knew Bai Sanyuan’s daughter.

“Second sister, I… I didn’t hide it from you on purpose. I was afraid that you would be angry.”

Ruan Xiaoxue lowered her head and her voice became smaller and smaller.

Because the second sister had repeatedly emphasized before that she should not play with the landlord’s son, so as not to get into trouble. She knew that the second sister was right, but Bai Huanxi had helped her and got along well with her, so she couldn’t help but want to get close to him.

“Huanxi and I were very careful. No one saw us playing together. Really, second sister, I didn’t lie to you!”

Ruan Xiaoxue didn’t hear Ruan Qiqi talking, and thought she was angry, and hurried to explain.

Ruan Qiqi was not angry at all. She was thinking about the plan to frame Ruan Guiming.

“You can play together, but you have to be careful and don’t let anyone catch your braids.”

Ruan Qiqi was not afraid of getting into trouble, but Ruan Xiaoxue was different. She still had to be careful.

After all, the landlord hat of the Bai family could not be removed until seven or eight years later.

Ruan Xiaoxue was stunned for a moment, then her face was full of joy. She asked happily, “Second sister, do you have any objection to me playing with Huanxi?”

“No objection, but you have to be careful.”

Ruan Qiqi reached out and picked a white camellia flower, pulled off the yellow core in the middle, and sucked the nectar from the flower. When she was a child, she loved to suck nectar from flowers. The ones that were large and sweet were the canna flowers and camellia flowers.

Camellia oleifera, also known as the camellia tree, blooms in winter and spring. The nectar is delicious. The fruit is pressed into oil.

But after growing up, pollution became more and more serious. Her parents did not allow her to suck it anymore. In addition, many camellia trees were cut down, and they were basically no longer seen in the city.

It is now the end of March. The camellia trees have passed their peak flowering period. There are only a few scattered flowers, but now there are more delicious delicacies. There must be tea bubbles in a large camellia forest like this.

There is a small camellia forest at the foot of the mountain on the road to Li Hailiang’s house. Ruan Qiqi didn’t spend much time to find a few super large tea bubbles. They were crispy and sour and sweet when bitten.

“Second sister, here you go!”

Ruan Xiaoxue found a tea bubble that was mutated from a tea fruit. This one tasted better, so she handed it over flatteringly.

Tea bubble, this one was mutated from a leaf, and this one was mutated from a fruit.

They tasted great. Ruan Qiqi took it and stuffed it into her mouth to chew. Sure enough, it tasted better than the leaves.

“Second sister, can I really play with Bai Huanxi?”

Ruan Xiaoxue asked cautiously, feeling uneasy. Second sister had strongly opposed it before.

“Well, find a few more.”

Ruan Qiqi searched for a long time but couldn’t find the tea fruit mutation, so she asked Ruan Xiaoxue to find it. This girl had a sharp eye.

“Hey!”

Ruan Xiaoxue was very happy and actively looked for tea bubbles. She was agile and climbed up the tea tree to look for it. She soon found a bunch of them and jumped down the tree with her clothes around her.

“Let’s go to my eldest sister’s house!”

Ruan Qiqi stuffed all the tea bubbles into her pocket, actually put them into the space, and turned back to eat them slowly.

Li Hailiang lives at the foot of the mountain. It is a newly built blue brick bungalow with three rooms. The family conditions are medium. He is the eldest in the family. He has a married sister and a married brother.

However, the woman his brother married is sweet and coaxing. She also gave birth to a son, who is quite liked by the parents-in-law. He does not have to work at home. The whole family bullies Ruan Shuangjiang and her mother and daughter.

“Beat you to death, you lazy and unlucky guy. You can’t even give birth to a son, and you still have the nerve to eat eggs? You are on guard against thieves at home, and you are unlucky. I will beat you to death!”

The old woman’s scolding and the crying of children came from afar.

Ruan Xiaoxue changed her face and said anxiously, “The damn old woman is bullying my eldest sister again!”

Ruan Qiqi frowned. She was scolded for eating an egg. What kind of miserable life did Ruan Shuangjiang live? He was even more miserable than the slaves in Xinzheku!

Ruan Xiaoxue was impatient and ran in front. Ruan Qiqi followed slowly. The old woman’s scolding became more and more unpleasant, even scolding the dead Ruan father.

“You are an unlucky girl born by an unlucky man. My family must be unlucky for eight lifetimes to marry such an unlucky girl like you. You gave me two money-losing girls and made my Hailiang a laughing stock. You still have the nerve to eat eggs? Why don’t you just die?”

“Mom, Pan Di is sick, so I cooked an egg for her. Don’t scold my dad, he’s dead!”

Ruan Shuangjiang finally spoke up. It’s okay for her to be scolded, but she can’t implicate her dad. Even if he dies, he will be scolded by her. She is so unfilial.

“What’s wrong with scolding your dad? How dare you talk back? Money-losing girls are not so precious. You have to eat eggs when you have a minor illness. The eggs are left for my grandson. I didn’t give these two money-losing girls away, which is already my best behavior. If you steal eggs again in the future, I will give them away immediately!”

Along with the scolding of the old lady Li, there was also a crisp slap.

Ruan Xiaoxue was furious and wanted to rush in, but was stopped by Ruan Qiqi. She looked around and picked up a hard and straight pole on the wall.

“I’ll beat you to death, you old loser. My father is a man. What qualifications do you have to scold him, you old loser, take my pole!”

Ruan Qiqi picked up the pole and rushed into the main room (living room) without saying a word, and hit Old Lady Li with the pole.

Old Lady Li was hit on the shoulder by the pole, and she almost died of pain. Before she could react, she heard a crackling sound, and all the tables and chairs in the main room were smashed. There were also two kettles, which were smashed to pieces, and hot water and glass pieces splashed all over the floor.
