The pretty widow is addicted to money, and the little wolfdog asks for a hug

Zhao Ying also pulled Gu Qinghuai to sit down, tears streaming down her face as she said, "Yes, Xiaohuai, if you don't have a household registration pass and are caught by soldiers, you will be sentenced to heavy labor. You are pregnant, how can you survive? You are my biological daughter. No matter what happens, no matter how poor and broken my home is, it will always be your home. If I have a mouthful of soup to drink, you will have a mouthful of food to eat!"

"My mother is right. You are our family's daughter. Even if you get married, this home will always be open to you. Whenever you are tired, miserable, or unhappy, you can always come home.

Besides, I am your elder brother and I should protect you. Anyone who dares to do anything to you must first step over my dead body!" Gu Qingshan said in a firm tone without any sign of weakness.

He was so thin that he looked unrecognizable, but his eyes were scorchingly bright.

He was crawling on the ground, but he was taller than many people.

Gu Qinghuai felt a surge of warmth in his heart.

Gu Qingmiao also kept wiping away tears: "Third sister, I will work hard in the future to support you and my nephew——"

"Thank you, mother, brother, and little sister... woohoo..." Gu Qinghuai bent his legs and wanted to kneel down to them.

Zhao Ying grabbed her and said, "Get up, kid! I'm your real mother, why are you being so polite? If there's any problem, we can get through it together!

When your father and eldest brother were injured, your grandparents, uncles and aunts wanted to split up the family. It was so hard back then, but didn’t we get through it? If the Zhou family refuses to give in, at worst, Mom will die for you!"

As a mother, she is a little weak in character, but she dares to die for her children.

"Mother~" Gu Qinghuai hugged his adoptive mother and burst into tears.

Although it was just an act, Gu Qinghuai took it seriously. She was truly moved and every tear was genuine.

With such a good family, her life is really worth it!

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for saving the fourth female compatriot. Reward: a pill for strengthening the body, a pig, a large iron pot, a box of large candles, a chopping knife, and the storage space is expanded to 4X4X4=64 cubic meters. ]

Gu Qinghuai: ...

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for saving the fifth female compatriot. Reward: A copy of "The Art of Craftsmanship", a skin-beautifying pill exclusive to the host, a box of salt, a box of eggs, a kitchen knife, and the storage space is expanded to 5X5X5=125 cubic meters]

The fourth and fifth should be A Niang and Xiao Mei.

If A Niang and Xiao Mei accepted her, she would be able to change the fate of the Gu family and save them both.

After crying, Gu Qinghuai wiped his eyes and pulled Zhou Liuya to him, "Mother, big brother, little sister, this is Zhou Liuya, the youngest daughter of the Zhou family. When she was just born, her biological parents almost threw her into a urine bucket and drowned her. It was Ah Yin who saved her and raised her with great difficulty.

She has been tortured by her parents since she was young, and her life has been worse than pigs and dogs. Look at her, an eight-year-old girl, but she looks like a dried bean sprout!"

Zhao Ying, Gu Qingshan and Gu Qingmiao all looked at Zhou Liuya.

The little girl had dark and rough skin. She was so thin that only a layer of skin was left. Her two little hands were covered with rough calluses.

Although she is already eight years old, her height is almost the same as that of five-year-old Qingmiao, and she looks like a weather-beaten little old lady.

Gu Qingmiao, 5 years old

Gu Qingmiao was also very thin, with clothes full of patches, but his eyes were clear and bright, and his face was still pink as a child. He looked innocent, cute, and full of spirit. It was obvious that although he was born in a poor family, he was raised with care by his family.

Therefore, being poor does not mean being unhappy. The key is how people live.

Zhao Ying hugged Zhou Liuya into her arms, feeling distressed. "The Zhou family's old bastards are such a piece of shit! How could they have the heart to do that to their own little girl!"

“Some people are not worthy of being human beings. They are worse than animals. Even a tiger will not eat its own cubs!” Gu Qingshan’s eyes were filled with coldness. He deeply regretted marrying his third sister to the Zhou family.

Gu Qinghuai looked at his mother and brother and continued, "Liu Ya has always been very good to me. She usually doesn't have enough to eat, but she still secretly saves food for me. She is so tired that she can't even straighten her back every day, but she always secretly helps me with work. After Ah Yin died, I was still worried about her and kept coming to me in my dreams, asking me to take her out of this hell.

Moreover, I secretly heard the old couple discussing that they would sell Liu Ya to a brothel in two years."

Zhou Liuya's pupils shrank: No wonder the second sister-in-law had such a hard time getting her out of the Zhou family!

"Oh my God! Is that... is that still a human?" Zhao Ying was stunned.

Gu Qingshan clenched his jaw tightly, looking very angry.

Gu Qinghuai breathed a sigh of relief. "Mother, big brother, don't worry. Liu Ya's name is also on the marriage certificate. She has completely severed her relationship with the Zhou family. Liu Ya also came with me voluntarily."

"Ahhh," Zhou Liuya nodded repeatedly, her face full of nervousness, her little body tense.

Her timid eyes quickly swept across the faces of Zhao Ying, Gu Qingshan and Gu Qingmiao, and when she did not find any expressions of disgust or disgust on their faces, she finally mustered up the courage to make gestures and exclaim “Ahhhhhh”.

Gu Qinghuai immediately explained: "Liu Ya said that she can do a lot of heavy work, such as clearing wasteland, turning the land, harvesting wheat, and planting rice. She doesn't want to eat for free and doesn't hold back, as long as she doesn't get beaten again."

When Zhao Ying heard this, tears started to flow again. She raised her hand and touched Liu Ya's head, saying distressedly, "My poor child, the Gu family will be your home from now on, and I am your real mother. Baby, just stay here with peace of mind."

"Ah", Liu Ya's tears rolled down, she pursed her lips tightly and nodded.

Worry appeared on Gu Qingshan’s face, but he quickly wiped it away.

If the enemy comes, he will fight back; if the water comes, he will block it with earth. If the Zhou family dares to make trouble, the worst that can happen is that he will fight them to the death.

This little girl can't even get enough to eat, and yet she can save food for her sister. Just for this kindness, Gu Qingshan should protect her.

From now on, she will be my biological sister!

Gu Qingmiao took Zhou Liuya's hand and spoke in a pleasant childish voice: "Sister Liuya, I am five years old. Can you be my fourth sister in the future? I also have a little brother. He is seven years old this year. I will call him fifth brother from now on."

"Ah," Zhou Liuya nodded with tears in her eyes.

Gu Qingmiao's words reminded Gu Qinghuai. She looked around and asked, "Mother, where is my younger brother?"

The original owner had five brothers and sisters.

The eldest brother Gu Qingshan is 21 years old this year.

The second sister, Gu Qingtao, is 20 years old and has been married for five years.

The third child is Gu Qinghuai, 17 years old.

The fourth brother, Gu Qingsong, is 7 years old.

The fifth sister, Gu Qingmiao, is 5 years old.

Between Gu Qinghuai and his fourth brother, three more children died young.

How can a family in the mountains afford to buy contraceptives? There is nothing wrong with a loving couple. If they are pregnant, they will have children. The more children they have, the more prosperous their family will be.

It is difficult to raise a child, but it will pass if you persevere.

Moreover, it can save a lot of effort if the older child takes care of the younger one.

Zhao Ying wiped away her tears, sniffed, and said in a more relaxed tone: "Song'er went to the mountains to trap rabbits. People say that he is a man and the pillar of the family. In the future, he will earn food for the family and feed his father and brothers."

"Pfft!" Gu Qinghuai laughed, "What a smart kid."
