Aunt Yu replied: "Captain Xu across the street, after his wife in his hometown passed away, he married a nurse here! The child has been staying in the countryside with his grandparents all these years."

"Now that her grandparents have passed away, the village party secretary bought a train ticket for 16-year-old Xu Miaomiao and sent her to the army. At first, I thought she was a babysitter from her hometown! Now two years have passed, and I didn't expect that she is Captain Xu's daughter."

Linghua curled her lips, "This is what they say in TV dramas, if there is a stepmother, there must be a stepfather! Children without mothers are like weeds!"

"Who says it's not?" Aunt Yu sighed.

Liu Meilan was stunned, "We can't keep hitting people now!"

Aunt Yu shook her head. "They couldn't understand me, so I could only secretly give the girl some food. I couldn't help much!"

The screams outside were getting louder and louder. Liu Meilan thought of herself in her previous life when she was imprisoned and cried for help, but no one helped her.

That feeling lingered in her heart, causing her great torment.

So Liu Meilan walked quickly to the door, opened it, and shouted, "Are we inviting thieves?"

An old lady opposite rolled her eyes when she saw Liu Meilan. "I'm teaching this kid a lesson. What's it got to do with you?"

"My cousin, call the police." Liu Meilan looked coldly at the fat old lady opposite, who looked like she was living a life of luxury. "You are not teaching a child a lesson, you are just beating a maid like an ancient landlady."

When Xu Miaomiao heard what Liu Meilan said, she quickly hid behind her, and then, while no one else was looking, she stuffed a notebook into Liu Meilan's hand, "I'm going to call the police! It was you who stole my dad's money, and you're accusing me!"

Liu Meilan was stunned and stuffed the notebook into her clothes.

When Mrs. Yang heard this, she was so angry that she was about to hit him with the rolling pin in her hand. "My wife worked so hard to come here to take care of the children. It was you, a stinky girl, who stole the money, and you actually slandered me."

Liu Meilan reached out and pulled him over. "You hit someone in front of so many people! Who stole it? Call the police and they will come and investigate!"

Linghua ran out, "Sister, I've called the police!"

Liu Meilan looked at Xu Miaomiao, "The police have been called now. There are so many injuries on your body. This is abuse! If you insist, an old woman will be arrested."

Xu Miaomiao's eyes lit up when she heard this. "I called the police. I insisted. She abused me. Not only did she beat me with a rolling pin, she also pinched me at night! My armpits and thighs are all covered with finger marks!"

Xu Miaomiao lifted up her sleeves, which were covered with red pinch marks, some of which even had bloodstains.

The neighbors living upstairs and downstairs were all shocked when they saw the face cream, "Oh my God, this is so cruel!"

"That's right. She's a grown-up girl. Even if she makes a mistake, she should be persuaded and educated. No one would really use violence!" An old lady downstairs said hurriedly.

When Mrs. Yang heard this, her face changed drastically. "You are talking nonsense. You are the one who framed me! I have never abused you!"

After saying that, Mrs. Yang hurried into the door and locked it.

Xu Miaomiao's eyes turned red as she cried and said, "You asked me to marry a fool, but I didn't want to. Then you said I was eating for free in this family! Who is eating for free in this family?"

"It's not me anyway! Since I came here two years ago, I've gotten up earlier than the chickens and slept later than the dogs. I have to mop the floor twice a day, wash clothes, buy groceries and cook! You're just an old landlord's wife, and you even let me wash your pants for you!"

"My mother died a long time ago, and my grandparents are gone too! I have no one to rely on, so I can only come here to live under someone else's roof. It would be fine if I just did some work, but you and your daughter are so mean. For a 2000 yuan gift, you let me marry a fool!"

"I, Xu Miaomiao, can't bear it this time. Even if I have to risk my life, I will tell you all the dirty things you have done! You want face, but I will make you lose it!"

Aunt Qi downstairs asked: "Miao Miao, why didn't you tell me before?"

Xu Miaomiao shook her head. "Even if I told them before, what would have happened? I was a minor, the police didn't care! My dad lied to me and brought me back! After I came back, they beat me up again."

"I turned 18 three days ago. I am an adult now! Not only do I want to call the police, I also want a medical examination. I want justice for all the grievances and injuries I have suffered over the years."

Liu Meilan was stunned. She didn't expect that Xu Miaomiao was not the kind of person who would just take a beating without resisting.

She had resisted before, but her father, Captain Xu, did nothing and even forced his daughter to compromise.

Others' eyes flickered a little more, and they also hoped that the matter would get out of hand. This was mainly because the foreign woman was usually unpleasant and spoke rather harshly, and many people hoped that they would be in trouble.

After a while, the police arrived.

Xu Miaomiao took off her coat and revealed only a worn vest with purple bruises all over her body.

"I reported Grandma Yang for abusing me. I want my injuries examined! My stepmother Yang Huihui aided and abetted the abuse, while my father Xu Jianguo turned a blind eye!"

As the person who called the police, the police took a note and then took Xu Miaomiao away.

Aunt Yu carried the food box and said, "Meilan and Linghua, you guys eat at home. I'll bring food to your sister-in-law and you first."

Liu Meilan took the lunch box and said, "Aunt Yu, I ate some while you were cooking just now. I'm not hungry now! You can eat at home and I'll bring it over."

"That's fine!" Aunt Yu nodded, "When you go there, bring your eldest brother and your mother back to have dinner with you!"

Liu Meilan came to the hospital carrying a lunch box and poured out the soup. "Sister-in-law, drink more soup! It will nourish your body!"

Tang Ying took the bowl of chicken soup and said, "Mom, Yi'an, Meilan is here, you two can go back and eat."

"Okay, mom and I will go back. We will come back after dinner." Liu Yian said with a smile, "The doctor will come to check in the afternoon. If everything is fine, we can be discharged and go home."

"Yeah!" Tang Ying didn't want to stay in the hospital anymore. It was not as comfortable as being at home. She had to let her family watch over her in the hospital. In fact, the people who stayed by her bedside had a harder time.

Liu Meilan suddenly thought of what happened at noon and handed it to Liu Yian, "Brother, this was given to me by Xu Xumiaomiao from the opposite door. Just now..."

Liu Yian was stunned. He took the notebook and gently opened it. The contents inside made Liu Yian dumbfounded. "Meilan, have you read the contents inside?"

Liu Meilan shook her head. "When I opened the first page, I saw Xu Jianguo's name. I knew this was not Xu Miaomiao's notebook, but Xu Jianguo's. Xu Miaomiao stole it and secretly sent it to me. It must not be an ordinary notebook. I read the first part."

Liu Yian breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "Mom, Yiwen, you and mom go back to eat, I have to go to work."

Tang Ying was stunned. "Is it serious?"
