Travel to the famine year to go to the sea, and become rich with the zombie girlfriend

"Old Xia, how could you bring this up!" Xia Youcai's lips trembled with excitement. He said angrily, "You're breaking your promise!"

"Yes! You are treacherous!" Huang also started to curse, and presented the only idioms she knew to Xia Wude, without caring what they meant.

"Ha!" Xia Wude sneered angrily upon hearing this. "You two are too greedy. I've reminded you time and again not to go too far, but you just won't listen!"

He sighed and spread his hands. "Before, Qingqing sided with your family, so I couldn't say anything. But now she doesn't want to be sucked dry by you. If I don't stand up, I won't be able to rest in peace even when I die and am buried in that yellow earth."

Xia Qingqing frowned and turned to ask, "What collar?"

The villagers also started talking and looked at Xia Wude curiously.

Xia Wude looked at Xia Youcai and his wife with a look of dismay, then turned to the crowd and said, "It's been more than ten years since this happened. Thinking back on it now, it really makes me sigh."

Seventeen years ago, Xia Youcai and Huang had been married for two years without having a child, and all kinds of rumors were flying around in the village.

Unable to bear the misery, Huang persuaded Xia Youcai to go out to work, and he was away for two years.

One day, when they were returning to the village, they happened to hear a baby crying at Wax Apple Mountain. When they arrived, they saw Xia Wude holding a baby.

The baby pink was very pretty, and the most important thing was that the bedding and clothes she wore were extremely exquisite, with styles and materials that these farmers had never seen before.

Xia Wude was originally going to take the baby back to the village, but Huang suddenly knelt down in front of her and cried, saying that everyone in the village laughed at her and called her a hen that couldn't lay eggs.

He wanted to take the child home and raise him, and he vowed to treat the child well.

Xia Wude softened his heart and agreed, and promised not to tell anyone that the child was not adopted, and just pretend that they were born outside.

The collar on the child was also handed over to Xia Youcai.

Unexpectedly, they sold it as soon as they got back to Xia Huangsheng, who often resold timber in the village.

At the beginning, he treated Xia Qingqing nicely. After all, he proved that she could give birth and brought her wealth.

But after a long time, his true colors were revealed.

"By the way, the necklace is a round piece of white jade with two beautiful birds carved on it and a golden lock underneath." Xia Wude tried his best to recall the appearance of the necklace and described it to Xia Qingqing.

"Gold? That's a very valuable thing," the leper woman poked her head out of the door and asked curiously, "Mrs. Huang, how much silver did you sell it for?"

The others were also very curious, but Mrs. Huang rolled her eyes and said, "What's it to you?"

"Where's Xia Huangsheng? Go find him and see if he can get Qingqing's collar back. After all, it concerns her life story..."

Tears welled up in Mrs. Ding's eyes, and she felt that Xia Qingqing was too pitiful.

"You don't know, over ten years ago, Xia Huangsheng made a fortune in the timber business and moved away." Xia Wude thought for a moment and said, "I heard that his business was expanded to Kyoto. I haven't seen him since..."

"Ah? Doesn't that mean Qingqing's things can't be found?" Xu Xiuxiu also sighed, feeling sorry for Xia Qingqing.

Just when everyone thought Xia Qingqing would be sad, she said calmly, "Captain Xia, since you know the whole story, please make the decision for me and sign this agreement to sever the relationship."

"it is good."

Just when everyone thought Xia Qingqing was going to make a scene, she simply asked for the agreement to sever the marriage. She herself didn't care about her background, including the collar that proved her identity, and wasn't curious about it either.

After signing the severance agreement and seeing everyone slowly leaving the Huo family, Xia Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief.

The Huo family finally calmed down.

The original owner was already dead, so she was naturally not curious about her background. Even if she found her, she would not be her mother, so what was there to be curious about?

Huo Yihan was the only one who kept his gaze fixed on Xia Qingqing, and he breathed a sigh of relief along with her. Without the constraints of Xia Youcai's parents, no one would be able to control her anymore.

And he, Huo Yihan, can also leave with peace of mind.

The next day, several officers and soldiers came to the government office, holding conscription orders and going from house to house to recruit soldiers, which scared every household into panic.

But when they heard that the conscription was voluntary, everyone felt relieved.

When they arrived at the Huo family, Huo Yihan stood out, leaving the Huo family members completely stunned.

Even Xia Qingqing was a little surprised. Does this mean she has to start all over again from the grassroots level?

"Second brother? What are you doing? Joining the army is no joke!" Huo An was a little angry. This is a life of licking blood on the edge of a knife, and you may die at any time.

"Second brother, what will happen to Qingqing if you leave?" Mrs. Ding stepped forward and grabbed her son's arm, with a pleading look in her eyes. "People in the village will gossip about us."

Huo Yihan glanced at everyone and said, "Qingqing and I have thought this through carefully. Besides, I'll get two taels of salary every month if I join the army. I can't stay at home all the time..."

Xia Qingqing's mouth twitched. When had this fellow discussed this with her? Was he using her as a shield?

"Can……"

"Let him go." After being silent for a while, Huo Gang interrupted Ding and agreed with Huo Yihan's decision.

No one knows a son better than his father. He saw passion and determination in Huo Yihan's eyes.

Huo Yihan left, and left very quickly.

He left without even saying goodbye properly.

The snow slowly melted and the roads became muddy, so apart from cooking and going out to sea, Xia Qingqing just stayed at home quietly acting like Jiang Taigong.

That day, Wang Qingyan stood at the Huo family's gate, looking at the dilapidated courtyard and house. She was deeply suspicious and turned around to question, "Old Yu! Are you sure this is Xia Qingqing's home?"

Before Old Yu could answer, Xia Qingqing came out. She raised her brows slightly when she saw Wang Qingyan, clearly a little surprised that she was the first one to arrive.

"Miss Wang," Xia Qingqing stepped forward and asked, "What brings you here today?"

"Miss Xia, I'm here to pass on a message today," Wang Qingyan said with a forced smile, "Li Nian said she's very sincere, but she also hopes you can... go to the Li family pawnshop to discuss..."

Xia Qingqing glanced at Wang Qingyan and saw her quickly lower her head, and immediately knew that something must have gone wrong with Li Nian.

"Ms. Wang, you're not suited to lying," Xia Qingqing said after looking into the distance and thinking for a moment, "But Mr. Li is smart, and I like working with smart people."

The corners of Wang Qingyan's mouth twitched unnaturally, and tears instantly flowed out of her eyes: "Hurry up and save Li Nian, she has been tortured beyond recognition, I'm afraid she will be sent to a brothel..."
