The stepsister of a peasant family in a book is spoiled by the big brothers

Qin Huiyin really didn't think this was necessary.

However, her mother wanted her to consolidate her position in the family and play the good guy role, so she couldn't let her down and continue to play the bad guy role.

Tang Yi laughed and knelt down, kowtowed to Li Taohua.

Li Taohua was startled by him: "What are you doing?"

Tang Yi smiled, lowered his head, and choked up, "Thank you for saving me."

Li Taohua: "...Then there's no need to kneel, just stand up!"

Before Tang Yixiao could even smile, Tang Luwu knelt down with him and kowtowed to Li Taohua: "Thank you, mother, for saving my life."

Li Taohua's fingers trembled.

Her expression was a little stiff: "You called me...what?"

"Mother." Tang Luwu shouted loudly, "You saved me, so from now on you are our mother."

Li Taohua looked at Qin Huiyin as if asking for help.

Qin Huiyin was amused by her expression.

Li Taohua can act pitiful, act like a shrew, and pull people's hair, but when facing the two kneeling children, her expression was more flustered than ever before.

"Mom, congratulations on having a pair of children." Qin Huiyin said.

As for Tang Yichen, he was unwilling to change his words, and they never forced him. Just like her, she didn't plan to change her words either.

Li Taohua couldn't stand this atmosphere and waved her arms impatiently: "Are you still not hungry? If you're not hungry, I'm starving to death. You can scream whatever you want, but if others ask, don't say I forced you to."

Tang Luwu pulled Tang Yi up and said to him with a smile: "Little brother, we will also have mothers in the future."

Tang Yichen looked at the brother and sister with a complicated expression.

Unlike them who had vague memories of their biological mother, as the eldest son, he had the most contact with his biological mother. In addition, because he was a son and had shown to be very smart since childhood, his biological mother doted on him very much, so he could not call others mother like his younger siblings.

Of course, he wouldn't stop his younger siblings from recognizing their stepmother as their mother. For them, having a mother who loves them is always good.

Tang Dafu felt more at ease when he saw Li Taohua recognize his children.

"Hurry up and sit down and eat, or it will get cold again."

The moon was beautiful today, and under the moonlight, everyone had a reunion dinner. This seemed to be the first time that their family had truly eaten together at the same table.

Tang Yi's face hurt from laughing, and it hurt when he chewed, so he only dared to eat some rice with soup.

"My daughter, how was this matter finally handled?" Li Taohua asked.

"He will apologize to you in front of the whole village tomorrow," Qin Huiyin said, "and then we'll talk about compensation."

"Compensation? You can still ask them for compensation?" Li Taohua asked expectantly, "I beat Li Erniu even worse. It won't be easy to get compensation, right?"

"They were the ones who started the trouble, so of course they should compensate us. Mother, you were acting in self-defense. You had no choice but to protect your younger brother. It's not your fault."

"My daughter is right. I told you, I'm not wrong, there's nothing to feel guilty about." Li Taohua said, "Then how much compensation should we ask them for?"

"We spent a lot of money on medicine today. We can't go too far. If we touch Tang Jizu's bottom line, it will be difficult to reach an agreement." Qin Huiyin said, "One or two taels of silver!"

"Only one tael!" Li Taohua was a little disappointed. "I thought I could get ten or eight taels."

"Mother, didn't you just say that you beat Baoyu's mother pretty badly? We're seeing a doctor anyway, so let's be less demanding and be more generous."

After discussing the countermeasures, everyone had their meal and went to bed early.

The Tang family is harmonious and warm, but the situation is completely different on the other side.

Li Erniu was tied to the trunk of a large tree in the yard. Mosquitoes swarmed around her, biting her face and leaving large bumps. Her face was already swollen, and now it was even more swollen.

She felt pain and itchiness, and said to Tang Jizu: "Dad, I know I was wrong, please forgive me!"

"Baoyu was beaten like this today. How did you, as his mother, take care of him? When it happened, you just acted recklessly, causing us not only shame but also losing a lot of money. You have no brains. You should wake up tonight and think clearly about how to deal with such a thing next time."

"Baoyu, quickly tell your father to put mother down! Mother is injured and really can't bear it anymore."

Tang Baoyu curled his lips and said, "My father is right. It's because you are too stupid that I was bullied. I spent so much money just now. That money was originally saved to buy meat for me. Because you are useless, I have no meat to eat recently."

Li Erniu said with a sad face: "Daddy, I will take good care of Baoyu next time and won't let him get hurt. If I encounter something like this again, I will... I will..."

"You're so stupid! You still haven't figured out where you went wrong. You should apologize to Baoyu first, and let this matter be resolved into a small matter. When everyone has forgotten about it, you can find an opportunity to deal with them, and make it so that no one can see that you're seeking revenge. I usually tell you not to offend people and to make more friends, but you haven't learned a thing. You're stupid yourself, and you want Baoyu to be just as stupid."

"Dad, I'm not stupid." Tang Baoyu was not convinced.

"Okay, I'll let you go today. Baoyu, put her down. It's so late, she must be starving. Ask her to get some food."

Li Erniu finally regained her freedom. She hurried to the kitchen to cook. It was pitch dark, and since her family couldn't afford an oil lamp, she could only cook in the dark.

However, the noodles made in the dark had too much salt in them, making them extremely salty. Tang Jizu took only one bite and then poured it on her, scalding her and making her cry loudly.

Tang Baoyu did the same thing and also splashed noodles on Li Erniu.

Li Erniu had just endured the pain, but now she was hurt again and was directly burned unconscious.

Tang Jizu was extremely annoyed and thought that the widow Wang next door might still have food, so he knocked on the door of the next door at night.

This night was destined to be restless. The villagers had been discussing the relationship between the two families for a long time. Some said that Li Taohua was just pretending. She usually bullied Tang Yixiao the most, but now she was standing up for him. To put it bluntly, she was deliberately trying to antagonize Li Erniu and take this opportunity to cause trouble for her. Others said that Tang Baoyu was inherently overbearing. He relied on his father's ability to make money and often brought him candy. He used candy to bribe the children in the village to serve as his followers. Now that someone had finally dealt with him, it was a good thing for them.

They also speculated about what happened after the two families went to see the doctor and how they planned to deal with the matter. Because of this incident, everyone in the village stayed up all night and couldn't sleep.

Of course, some people were worried that this fire would burn them. After all, Tang Baoyu had three or four little followers. In addition to the two who followed Tang Baoyu yesterday, there were two who had also followed Tang Baoyu to bully Tang Yixiao before. Their parents were worried that if they provoked Tang Yichen's family, they would also be implicated.
