After Shi Qingqian returned home, she gave the meat she bought to Zhang Lanxiang.

Zhang Lanxiang felt a little distressed when she saw that so much meat was given to the workers who were building the house.

"Qianqian, why did you buy so much meat again?" Zhang Lanxiang frowned slightly and said, "Qingqian, I know you want the house to be repaired quickly, but this is too expensive. We have to plan our lives carefully."

Shi Qingqian patiently held Zhang Lanxiang's hand and explained, "Mom, look, these workers are working so hard. If we treat them better now, they will work even harder. A well-built house will be comfortable to live in, so we have to spend this money."

After hearing this, Zhang Lanxiang nodded slightly, but still felt a little reluctant.

Shi Qingqian saw what Zhang Lanxiang was thinking and smiled to comfort her, "Don't worry, Mom, our lives will definitely get better and better in the future."

Zhang Lanxiang sighed. Although she felt distressed, she also knew that Shi Qingqian was right.

After a while, the aroma of meat wafted out from the kitchen.

The workers smelled the fragrance and couldn't help but sigh. This was the house they had been building for decades, and this time they had met the most generous family. Not only did they pay high wages, but the daily meals were also very good.

They worked with greater enthusiasm.

Zhang Lanxiang glanced at the kitchen from time to time. She was worried as she watched the pieces of meat being cooked in the pot.

After the meal was ready, the workers sat together and feasted.

After the workers finished their meal, they continued to work.

Zhang Lanxiang looked at the busy workers. Although she still felt sorry for the meat, she also had more expectations for her future life.

After finishing work, Xu's father, second brother Xu Huaimin and second sister-in-law Zhang Youdi also hurried over to help.

Although Mr. Xu is not good at speaking, he quietly picked up his tools as soon as he arrived at the construction site and helped carry some heavier materials.

The second brother Xu Huaimin used his strength to help the workers lift wood and move stones.

Second sister-in-law Zhang Youdi was also busy. She helped organize tools and handed water to the workers.

Qiming, Xiaofang and Xiaohui also came next door after school.

Their small figures shuttled between the bricks, carrying one brick after another with great effort.

Although their faces were red from exhaustion, their eyes were sparkling with excitement.

Shi Qingqian looked at the children's rosy little faces, took out a handful of White Rabbit milk candies from her pocket, and walked towards the children with a smile.

"Qiming, Xiaofang, Xiaohui, you must be exhausted. Here, two White Rabbit candies each," Shi Qingqian handed the candies to the children.

The children looked at the beautifully packaged White Rabbit candies in their hands, their eyes sparkling with surprise.

Erwa Qifan saw the White Rabbit candies in his brothers and sisters' hands from afar, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

As soon as Shi Qingqian left, he spread his feet and ran towards Xiaohui quickly, snatched the candy from her hand and stuffed it into his mouth.

Xiaohui was frightened by Qifan's sudden action and burst into tears.

Seeing this, Qiming and Xiaofang immediately stood in front of Xiaohui.

Qiming pointed at Qifan angrily and said, "Brother, how could you take Xiaohui's candy? This is wrong. Give it back to her."

"No, I want to eat it," Qifan said vaguely with candy in his mouth, "Mom said, you little bitch, all the good things in the house should be mine."

"Besides, they should give in to me. After all, they are girls. I am the baby of the family. Everything in this house will belong to me from now on."

"Hmph, if they dare to disobey, they will be in trouble when I grow up." Qi Fan said as he raised his chin proudly. His look of asking for a beating made people angry and helpless.

Qiming was so angry after hearing what his brother said that his face turned red: "Xu Qifan, how can you say that? We are all family. There is no distinction between yours and mine. Girls are also important. We can't look down on them. Have you forgotten what grandma taught us?"

"Grandma is a bad person. She drove mom away. You are all bad people too," Qifan said, picking up a brick on the ground and throwing it hard at Qiming and the others.

Qiming quickly pulled Xiaofang and Xiaohui to the side, narrowly avoiding the flying bricks.

Xiaofang was so scared that her face turned pale. Xiaohui hugged Xiaofang tightly, tears welling up in her eyes.

"What are you doing, kid?" The workers quickly picked up Qifan and held him under their arms. "You little rascal, do you know that decorations can kill people?"

Qi Fan struggled desperately under the workers' arms, shouting, "Let me go! You are all bad people! I don't want you to care about me."

The worker looked at the spoiled child helplessly, but did not dare to let go, for fear that he would do something dangerous again.

Seeing he couldn't break free, Qi Fan simply started throwing tantrums under the workers' arms, kicking his legs and shouting, "I want candy, I want candy, you all bully me, I'm going to kill you."

Zhang Lanxiang heard the noise and came out of the yard, and saw this scene.

Seeing Qifan and Li Guihua acting in the same way, I was so angry.

He picked up a branch on the ground, walked quickly over and took Qifan from the worker, then pulled down his pants. The branch fell on his buttocks, leaving red marks as it rose and fell.

"Who do you want to kill? This is the perverse logic your mother taught you, always shouting for fighting and killing," Zhang Lanxiang said angrily while spanking Qifan's butt.

"What's wrong with a girl? She's also the treasure of the family. Look at your brothers and sisters, they're so sensible. And then look at you, you only know how to throw tantrums and act like a spoiled brat, just like your mother."

Although Qifan's butt was hurt from being spanked, he still stubbornly held his neck in place and refused to admit his mistake.

"They are wrong. Mother said all the good things belong to me and I want them," he shouted while sobbing.

"Woo waa ...

Zhang Lanxiang was so angry at Qifan's attitude that her hands were shaking.

If she had known that Qifan would be raised like this by Li Guihua, she should not have been soft-hearted at the time. She should have kept Qifan by her side just like she protected Qiming.

It's too late to regret now.

Zhang Lanxiang took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. She looked at Qifan and said seriously, "Are you really going to go find your mother?"

When Qi Fan heard Zhang Lanxiang's words, he was stunned for a moment, then said stubbornly: "Yes, I want to go find my mother. She won't beat me like you did."

"Okay, you have to remember that it's not our Xu family that doesn't want you as their grandson, it's you who doesn't want us."

Zhang Lanxiang immediately went back to the house to pack up Qifan's things and asked Xu Huaimin to take him to Lijia Village to find Li Guihua.
