Originally Zhao Minglin was like a master who didn't have to do anything. Now he has to go to the fields to work even with his weak body. His previously fair hands are now covered with calluses.

I work every day and fall asleep as soon as I get into bed. I get up earlier than the chickens and sleep later than the dogs. How can I have the mind to study?

He also didn't understand why he could still work every day without falling down even though he was so weak that his legs were weak and he felt dizzy.

That day, Fu Qi went to Zhou's house to collect his wages. Seeing Dabao so thin and with bruises all over his face, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

As soon as Dabao saw Fu Qi, he knelt down and pulled her skirt, crying and saying, "Mom, I know I was wrong. Please let me go home. I will be obedient and work hard in the future. I will be filial to you when I grow up."

"In the past, you brothers went around the village complaining every day that your stepmother beat and scolded you and didn't give you food. Now you are working for a rich family and have no worries about food and drink, and you are still not satisfied?" Fu Qi pulled back her skirt with a look of disgust.

Dabao was stunned by Fu Qi's words. He really believed that his stepmother was bad and he felt that he was not living a good life.

However, their stepmother had never beaten or scolded them, nor had she withheld their food, so Fu Qi's words left Dabao at a loss as to how to respond.

But when he thought about the fact that he not only had to work hard in Zhou's house, but was also beaten and scolded, and had no food or warm clothes, he couldn't stay there for even a day.

He could only keep saying nice things to Fu Qi, hoping that she would take him away.

Fu Qi sneered when he heard his words, "Zhou Mansion is such a good place, what else are you dissatisfied with? If you dare to be driven away by Zhou Mansion and lose your wages, I will break your legs."

Dabao was now panicked and confused. The little bit of hope he had held on to was now completely shattered.

Xiao Bao, who was following behind Fu Qi, felt a little helpless when he saw his elder brother looking so pitiful, but he didn't dare to say anything good to his stepmother.

This time he didn't understand why his stepmother brought him out, and he was always afraid that she would sell him.

When he came out in the morning, he asked his father for help, but his father didn't dare to help.

Now Fu Qi has taken his wages and left.

Following closely behind anxiously.

When Fu Qi brought him out this time, he naturally had to arrange a place for him.

She had seen Xiaobao secretly looking at Tianya with resentment more than once.

The malice revealed in his eyes was self-evident. He could no longer tolerate Tian Ya and believed that it was Tian Ya's existence that had caused his stepmother to become what she is now.

This morning, he actually took advantage of Fu Qi's inattention and tried to push Tian Ya into the well.

Some people are just born evil, vicious and ignorant.

Tian Ya was the original owner's favorite, so Fu Qi would never let Tian Ya get into trouble. She had tied a heart-to-heart rope on Tian Ya's hand, so if she encountered malicious intent, she would be the first to notice it.

After Fu Qi realized what was going on, he tied up Xiao Bao with a rope and threw him into the well, leaving him to struggle for a long time before pulling him out.

The pain of drowning made Xiaobao so frightened that he looked at Fu Qi with fear in his eyes.

However, Fu Qi did not think that such a lesson could make him fully understand his mistakes, and she did not have such a saintly heart to guide them.

After an hour's ride in the ox cart, they finally arrived at Wangjia Village. Fu Qi took Xiaobao to the door of a house.

There was a knock on the door and a cursing voice was heard from inside. Until he opened the door and saw Fu Qi and the boy behind her, he swallowed the dirty words back and smiled what he thought was a very kind smile.

Fu Qi had already made inquiries about this family. The couple were well-known ruffians in the village and had not given birth to any children in five years of marriage.

They were already very distressed about this matter, but they met a fortune teller not long ago who said that they could find a child to raise first to get some good luck, and that they would surely get pregnant within a year.

Therefore, Xiaobao was the child that Fu Qi prepared for them to bring them good fortune.
