In my 40s, the trading system took me flying

Xu Sizhu wanted to hit Xiaoqi, but was kicked off by Xu Dazhu.

"Xu Sizhu, have you become more capable? Xiaoqi has grown up so big, and I can't bear to hit him. How dare you do that? Do you think I'm dead?"

It was Xu Dazhui and his family who raised the child to be so petty. No one in the family did anything, but Xu Sizhui, the cheap father, came back and dared to beat the child. Xu Dazhui grabbed the stick next to him and was about to hit Xu Sizhui, but his wife stopped him.

"Alright, alright, you're all angry, just say less and don't be embarrassed!"

Xu Sizhu then realized what he was about to do and his face turned pale.

Xiao Qi gave him a thumbs up and said, "You're really good. You're thinking of hitting me when I don't take care of me for a day. Go ahead and hit me. You'll just end up paying off the debt of gratitude we owe you!"

He stretched his neck, his face flushed red from excitement.

Xu Sizhu sat down dejectedly, while Lin Lanzhi, who was held in his arms, glared at Xiao Qi fiercely: "You are indeed uneducated. You are so vicious to your own parents. You should never have given birth to me in the first place!"

If a child still had hope for their parents, hearing these words from their biological mother would definitely be a blow, but Xiao Qi was not like that. The corners of his mouth curled up, and he half squatted down: "Oh, why didn't you strangle me to death back then? It's a pity that you didn't dare to do it then, and now you have even less chance. If you have the guts, then get out of here. Why are you causing trouble in our Xu family?"

Lin Lanzhi pointed at Xiao Qi and trembled with anger.

"What's wrong? No one wants to curry favor with you anymore, so you remembered that you still have a few sons to order around? Sorry, my last name is Xu, not Lin, so you have no right to control me!"

Xiao Qi stood up proudly, but was slapped on the back of the head by Old Lady Xu.

"What are you showing off for, little brat? Go out and play. This is all about adults, why are you meddling in other people's affairs?"

Xiaoqi was not angry when being beaten by Old Lady Xu. He just smiled ingratiatingly and asked Xu Xiaoya and the others to leave.

Watching the children leave, Old Lady Xu slapped Xu Sizhu in the face: "I won't hit your wife. After all, she hasn't been filial to me. But you, I'll beat you to death, you bastard!"

Old Mrs. Xu had long been dissatisfied with Xu Sizhu because her own child married such a thing.

Compared to the previous time when someone tried to stop him, this time no one tried to stop him.

Based on what Lin Lanzhi just said, any normal person would get angry.

The fact that they didn't take action shows that they still have their composure.

Lin Lanzhi would not have protected Xu Sizhu originally. In her eyes, Xu Sizhu was just her dog, but now the Xu family looked down on her.

"You old bastard, who gave you permission to do that? If you do that again, I'll tell the Queen that you're all rebels!"

It would have been fine if Lin Lanzhi hadn't threatened. As soon as she said this, Old Lady Xu stopped beating Xu Sizhu and said to her eldest daughter-in-law and the others with a cold look in her eyes, "Kidnap him! Such a traitor and lackey must not be let off!"

The eldest daughter-in-law and her companions, who had long been unhappy with Lin Lanzhi, took action and tied her up regardless of her struggles.

Xu Sizhu originally wanted to beg for mercy, but after hearing what his wife said, he fell to the ground dejectedly.

At this point, what is there to not understand? His daughter-in-law has never thought about talking to his family properly, and has always looked down on their family.

He had rescued his father-in-law back then, and now he was being spurned by his wife's family again for saving his father-in-law.

"Xu Sizhu, you bastard, you just watched these lunatics attack me?" Lin Lanzhi screamed and questioned.

Xu Sizhu covered his face and didn't look at her.

His daughter-in-law is the person he loves, and his parents are his family.

At this moment he was in a huge contradiction.

But no matter how Xu Sizhu struggled, Lin Lanzhi had touched the bottom line of the Xu family, and no one would help her.

After repeated questioning, Old Man Xu finally couldn't stand it anymore and kicked Xu Sizhu: "Coward, your wife wants to kill our whole family. Will you choose your wife or our family? Give me a word!"

Xu Sizhu rubbed his face, tears streaking down his cheeks: "Dad, I didn't know, she's my wife!"

Old Man Xu spat, cursed, and ordered Xu Dazhu to tie up Xu Sizhu: "Give him some muscle softening powder and throw him in the woodshed. Just make sure he doesn't starve to death!"

After all, he was her own son, so Old Mrs. Xu couldn't kill him.

The noise in the yard didn't quiet down until someone covered Lin Lanzhi's mouth.

Many elderly people gathered around Old Man Xu and said, "Uncle, you can't be soft-hearted. If the Japanese get to know about this, the good life we have worked so hard to maintain will be gone again!"

Living deep in the mountains means being isolated from the world. But here there are mountains, water and fields. As long as you are not a particularly troublesome person, you can actually live a good life.

As a mountain man, we have long been accustomed to a self-sufficient life. If the Japanese find this place and drop a few bombs, this place will be destroyed.

The people in the mountains are not those who are bound by etiquette and morals at the foot of the mountain. They believe more in the rules of survival. Lin Lanzhi violated a taboo, and they would not allow such a hidden danger to remain.

The experience passed down from generation to generation in Huaishu Village is that no one is allowed to destroy the peace here.

"I know, I'll keep her locked up!"

Old Man Xu has always been a cheerful and kind person, and this is the first time he has made such a cold-blooded decision.

Everyone in the tribe snorted, but someone still suggested: "This unkind and unfilial thing should be drowned in the pond!"

Old Man Xu did not agree, after all, it was a human life.

They just wanted to spare Lin Lanzhi's life, but Lin Lanzhi was not grateful at all. Because she was locked up, she hated the Xu family to the core and secretly vowed to kill all the members of the Xu family without a burial place.

Even Xiaoqi and the others were hated by Lin Lanzhi.

That night, when Lin Lanzhi begged to go to the toilet, she knocked her third aunt unconscious and ran out of the valley.

But how could she know the extent of the security in the valley? As a foreigner, she had no idea of the traps.

Soon she fell into a snake den, and her screams cut through the night sky.

The patrol came over and saw Lin Lanzhi, who had been bitten by a snake and was in a terrible state. However, they did not rescue her immediately, but went to look for the Xu family.

When Old Lady Xu and Old Man Xu found the knocked-out third daughter-in-law and looked at the dying Lin Lanzhi, they said, "Since she's so eager to die, let her be punished!"

They didn't kill Lin Lanzhi, but Lin Lanzhi sought death herself.

They didn't kill her outright because they were considering Xiaoqi and the other children.

Old Lady Xu woke up the three Xiaoqi brothers and told them how Lin Lanzhi knocked their third aunt unconscious and how she escaped and fell into the snake cave.

"Since she's so eager to die, let her die. Anyone who wants to be a traitor is not one of our relatives!"

Xiao Qi expressed his attitude with a cold face.

Xiaojiu and Xiaoyi also nodded.

They don't need a mother like that.
