Marry a rough man in exchange for marriage, cannon fodder educated youth go to the countryside to wi

The woman tried to move forward tentatively, but when she met Xu Yan's cold and distant gaze, she finally stopped hesitantly, but her eyes were fixed on Lin Dong.

Although Dabao and Xiaobao had long forgotten what Lin Dong's uncle and aunt looked like, children have always been very sensitive in sensing adults' emotional changes. When they saw the woman's fanatical gaze towards Lin Dong from afar, the two boys felt that the woman in front of them was not a good person.

After all, Lin Dong had never been so scared when he was beaten at school before!

These two adults are even more terrifying than Zhao Wenhu and his men!

Thinking of this, Dabao and Xiaobao pursed their lips tightly, with vigilance on their little faces. They also hid behind Xu Yan and Xie Zhuo, protecting Lin Dong tightly.

Noticing their actions, Xie Zhuo lowered his head and glanced at both of them.

Then he grabbed Lin Dong's little hand and squeezed it gently in a soothing manner.

"Aunt San, who is this person? So scary," Dabao's tender voice suddenly came over.

Xu Yan's eyes were still on the woman in front of him. Before he could answer, he heard Xiao Bao talking nonsense in a serious tone, "That's right, why did she point at Big Brother and call him Lin Dong? Who is Lin Dong?"

When Xiaobao said this, no one except Dabao reacted.

It was Xie Zhuo, who was tormented by the happy jumping up and down in his arms, who came back to his senses first and looked at the couple not far away.

There was a chill in his eyes that was colder than the winter wind. "Who knows? It might be the name of some wronged child who was sold and then beaten to death."

He was tall, and the three boys couldn't see his face. They could only judge his expression by the seemingly sarcastic tone in his smile.

Uncle San was angry.

The coldness on Xu Yan's face became even stronger.

She was still young two years ago, and had a bit of the original owner's aura, with a round face and round eyes. Although she was dark-faced, she still looked a bit like a sweet girl. Now her face has fully grown and she has a bit of a queen face.

Especially her height, which is considered tall among women. Now she has a frosty face, looking down at the two people in front of her with condescending and disgust. There is really an indescribable aura about her.

"Well, that's right," Lin Dong's second aunt didn't want to give up, but was disturbed by Xiao Bao's words. She was a little uncertain again. She stretched out her hand and wanted to point to Lin Dong, "It's my nephew Lin Dong, right?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Yan sneered.

"What are you talking about? You see a child who is yours? Looking at our child, it's impossible for him to have an uncle and aunt like you, right?"

After she finished speaking, she glanced back and forth between the two of them, and finally made an expression as if she was going to vomit if she looked at them any longer.

The woman's face froze. She was about to say something else when Lin Tianfu grabbed her arm.

"What are you doing?" Lin Tianfu grabbed the woman tightly. When he noticed that Xie Zhuo and Xu Yan were staring at him, he lowered his head even more.

"What did you say I did?"

When the woman saw Lin Tianfu's cowardly look, she was furious. She glared at him and shouted at him in what she thought was a low voice: "How many times has Tiedan cried because he wanted to eat a string of candied haws? If they raised Lin Dong, they should at least show some appreciation..."

The voice at the end became lower and lower, and Xu Yan didn't hear clearly, but just the first part was enough to make her furious.

Listen, is this human talk?

First, he sold the child for money, and then he ignored him from beginning to end. Now that he has seen the child, he doesn't even ask if he has been doing well recently. Instead, he is planning to squeeze some of his surplus value.

A string of candied haws?

Ha ha.

When Xu Yan rushed over and slapped the woman in the face, there was nothing else in his mind except anger and Lin Dong's half-dead appearance in the hospital.

She moved so fast throughout the whole process that even the woman who was slapped didn't react.

When she stared at Xu Yan for a few seconds and raised her hand, Xie Zhuo had already arrived beside Xu Yan.

While he pulled Xu Yan into his arms, he kicked Lin Tianfu in the stomach.

The child held by the woman burst into tears.

It's cold in winter, and most people stay at home, warming themselves by the brazier or iron stove. Many people squat in the corner to bask in the sun. There are not many people on the road, but Xu Yan and Lin Tianfu are not the only ones there.

After hearing the crying, a few people also looked over here.

The woman was about to fight back, but when she bent down to put the child on the ground, she found several people surrounding her. She paused, and in the end not only did she not say anything more to Xu Yan and the others, she also hurriedly ran away with the child in her arms.

Xu Yan's anger had not subsided yet, but he was also a little confused by the woman's actions.

Just when she was wondering, she heard an old woman next to her shouting at Lin Tianfu in a hoarse voice.

Lin Tianfu snatched the child from the arms of the woman next to him, and the two of them ran faster.

"You bastard, you hide at home every day and I finally ran into you today," the old woman said in a loud voice as she ran forward.

The other aunts who came to the town with her to buy things also knew about the grudge between her and the Lin family. They kept muttering to themselves while quickly chasing after her.

"I've never seen anyone so shameless. If she had no money, it would be fine if she didn't pay back the debt, but she can already eat meat, yet she still doesn't pay back the debt," the old woman yelled.

"You are kind-hearted," another woman who caught up with her said loudly, "Given their family's situation, only someone as kind-hearted as you would lend them money."

"That's right," another person said, "they used to be a landlord. In my opinion, they shouldn't have lent them money..."

The sound became smaller and smaller. Xie Zhuo stood beside Xu Yan and took her hand and rubbed it.

Xu Yan no longer had the momentum he had when he attacked them just now. He turned his head to look at the three stunned guys, pursed his lips, put on a smile and walked towards them.

"Aunt and Uncle were just too angry and couldn't help themselves. You can't follow their lead. It's wrong to hit people. You should still reason with them."

The three cubs nodded.

But there was indeed an expression on her face that said, "Third Aunt, you haven't been reasonable with me from the beginning to the end."

"Also," Xu Yan raised his hand and pinched Xiao Bao's cheek, "When did you learn to talk nonsense? Since you call me big brother so affectionately, don't call Lin Dong by his name anymore. Call me brother instead."

Xiaobao: "..."

I don’t know if Xiaobao’s brother would scream out loud, but Lin Dong had already pounced on Xu Yan and grabbed her hand tightly.

He didn't cry even though he was so scared just now, but now that his second uncle and aunt, who usually beat and scolded him and even sold him, had left, he couldn't hold back his tears any longer.

I was crying so hard that I was twitching.

"It's okay," Xu Yan comforted him gently, bending down and touching his head. "From the moment your uncle brought you home, you have been our child. No one will ever take you away, or give you away or sell you."

Dabao and Xiaobao also came over, and followed Xu Yan's lead in touching his head, a little clumsily but sincerely.

Lin Dong still wanted to cry, but he felt that his hat was about to be rubbed off by Dabao's hands, so he temporarily held back his tears, let go of Xu Yan's hand, and grabbed his.

"Why are you exerting so much strength?" Lin Dong asked with a nasal tone.

"Ah? Am I strong?" Dabao was a little confused.

"If it weren't for the hat blocking it, you would have rubbed my scalp off," Lin Dong adjusted his hat.

Being interrupted like this, I couldn't cry anymore.

Lin Dong was in a low mood. When Xu Yan went to talk to Fang Xia, Xie Zhuo took them to a place on the street where the snow had not melted and made a few small snowmen. Only then did he start to smile.

"The most beautiful one is Third Aunt," Lin Dong said, pointing at the snow-white little snowman in Xie Zhuo's hand.

Then, he pointed to the strongest one and said, "This is Uncle San."

Behind them were three little snowmen of the same size. They fought for a long time over which one was them, but then Kai Xin sat down on them and everything was ruined.

When Xu Yan came out of the tailor shop, he saw three unhappy puppies and Xie Zhuo who was trying hard to hold back his laughter while training the puppies.

When the winter sun is at its strongest, it seems to have a furry touch. When it falls on people's heads and faces, there is no burning sensation, only endless warmth.

Before the arrival of spring, Xu Yan and Xie Zhuo finally packed up all their things and boarded the train to City B with their children, Liu Mancang, and Zhao Jisheng.

A week before departure, Xie Zhuo went to the home of the widower who almost beat Lin Dong to death. This time the old man couldn't escape and was beaten up by him in the dark.

In fact, according to Xu Yan's idea, they should call the police and have this scum arrested and sentenced to ten or eight years in prison. But in the end, because he had three young children at home, the two of them changed their minds.

No one knew what would happen to the three daughters of this old widower if he was really caught. They might starve to death, or become wild children who steal to make a living, or they might be sold...

As for the days after being sold, Xu Yan didn't want to think about it. After all, having Lin Dong was enough to make her miserable, and the girls might have suffered even more.

Who knows.

After several days of struggle, Xu Yan and Xie Zhuo finally decided not to call the police. Instead, they decided to beat up the old widower who beat Lin Dong to vent their anger, and then live a peaceful life as a family.

When the train arrived in City B, it was the weekend and Xu Yan's family came over. As soon as they got off the train, Chen Lihua ran over and hugged Xu Yan.

"Finally I'm here," said Chen Lihua.

His hand was still touching Xu Yan's face, and he wanted to say "Why have you lost weight?" But when he touched Xu Yan's white, smooth, and slightly fleshy face, he swallowed the words back.

"I haven't seen you for a few years. How come you have become so beautiful?" Xu Yan's brother, Xu Shu, walked up and took over the conversation naturally.
