What Lin Bao didn't see was that after he closed his eyes, the little girl let out a slight sigh of relief.

Following Lin Cai's instructions, Gu Dachui and his younger brother tidied up all the vacant plots of land in the house.

For as long as they worked here, Lin Bao slept on the edge of the field for just as long.

The flowers that were shading him stood there, holding up their leaves, without ever moving an inch.

When Lin Bao woke up after a good night's sleep, he saw that there was still a shadow above his head. He sat up and saw the thin little girl sitting above him, holding several wilted leaves in her hand.

He glanced at them twice without saying anything, stood up, patted the dry grass and mud off his clothes, and then looked at the other two brothers who were working hard and sweating profusely.

"Hey, are you done yet? Shouldn't you be heading back? I'm starving!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Dachui looked up at the sun in the sky. He felt it was about time, so he called Ershi to go home together.

Before the group even reached the door, Lin Bao stopped in his tracks, and the people following behind him also stopped, because they had all heard someone's annoying voice.

He really hadn't expected that some people would be so fearless. It seemed that he hadn't done enough, otherwise why couldn't he intimidate people?

Lin Bao chuckled, and the three people following behind him heard it, especially the youngest, Hua Duo, whose small body trembled.

The voice coming from the doorway was very familiar. Ever since she could remember people, this voice had been stuck in her mind and never left.

The flower was a little scared and didn't dare to take another step forward. When Ershi saw this, he went over and gave the flower a push.

"What are you afraid of? You're not part of that crazy woman's family anymore. No matter how crazy she goes, she won't hurt you."

Ershi's voice made Huaduo look up at him. Lin Bao, who was in front, also heard it and then turned around and called the little girl over.

Although Hua Duo was scared, she knew that Lin Bao was the one who had brought her out of that house, so she mustered up her courage and went over.

Are you afraid I'll hit you?

The flower nodded obediently.

"If I said I was going to hit her, would you be scared?"

That girl, without a doubt, shook her head without hesitation. She really shook her head immediately after Lin Bao finished speaking.

Seeing the little girl shake her head, Lin Bao patted her hair, then stood up and asked Gu Dachui to keep an eye on her.

He walked to the Gu family's gate with a blade of grass in his mouth, leaned against the door frame, and looked at Li Dazui, who was sitting on the ground in the yard, crying and wailing.

"Auntie Big Mouth, how long has it been? Have you forgotten what I said so quickly?"

Upon hearing the sound, Li Dazui fell silent instantly. She didn't even dare to turn her head or look behind her.

The only reason she came here to cause trouble was because Gu Dachui and the others were all on the mountain and hadn't returned, so she assumed the Gu family didn't know.

So he planned to come over and embellish what had just happened so that they would compensate him.

But who knew that after she came here and cried and made a scene for so long, the entire Gu family acted as if they hadn't heard her at all and completely ignored her.

Li Dazui was unwilling to leave just like that, so she kept pestering Hua Ni. She didn't talk about anything else, but just said that after Hua Ni met the Gu family, she hadn't gone back to her parents' home and had ignored them.

Huani really wanted to say that she was bought by the Gu family. What family does someone who has been bought have? What right does she have to go back?

But even if she said that, Li Dazui wouldn't acknowledge it, and no one paid any attention to her, so she just kept crying in the yard.

When Lin Bao heard that she was silent, he went into the yard and asked Er Shi to go inside the house and bring out a chair for him to put in the yard.

"Go ahead and cry, why did you stop? Weren't you crying really hard just now?"

"As soon as I got back, I heard a lot of noise coming from inside the house. I thought it was some opera performers, but when I came in, I saw Aunt Big Mouth!"

"Auntie Big Mouth, you love to cause trouble, why didn't you tell me sooner! If you had told me earlier, I wouldn't have let you leave just now!"

Upon hearing these words, Li Dazui began to tremble. She stiffly turned her body away and said, "I'm not here to extort your sister. I'm here to find my daughter."

“My daughter has been married into the family for so long, and she has never come back to visit me even once. Do you still want such an ungrateful wretch?”

Upon hearing this, Hua Ni was stunned. She stopped what she was doing and looked up at Li Dazui in disbelief.

What does it mean to take care of your family?

Why not take care of the family?

She didn't do anything wrong, so why doesn't the Gu family want her?

If the Gu family really doesn't want her anymore, would the Hua family still want her?

The thought of possibly leaving the Gu family and returning to the Hua family made Hua Ni's face turn pale. Hua Duo, who had just entered the door, heard Li Da Zui's words.

Turning her head, she saw her sister's pale face and ran towards her, crying, "Sister, don't be afraid, brother-in-law won't abandon you, he won't..."

She may be small, but she knows everything!

She knew that only by staying in the Gu family could she and her sister grow up safely, and only by staying in the Gu family could they avoid being tortured to death.

She originally thought that as long as her sister was there, she could stay in the Gu family, but now it seems that things are not like that.

After Li Dazui finished speaking, she didn't hear Lin Bao say anything. She secretly glanced at Lin Bao and, seeing that his expression hadn't changed, continued speaking.

"The third son of the Lin family, our daughter is not good-looking, she is thin and frail, and she looks like she won't be able to bear children."

"She's been married to Gu Dachui for a while now, but there's no sign of her pregnant. She definitely can't have children."

"Since your eldest son is the eldest, you should have a child as soon as possible. If you have a child, Lin Cai can become a grandmother, right?"

"Your sister is old enough to be a grandma, and you're a great-uncle now! Isn't that wonderful?"

Li Dazui's words made perfect sense; everything he said was for the sake of the Gu family and for Gu Dachui's sake.

But when she said these words, she didn't care at all that Huani was listening right next to her, especially when she heard her mother say that she couldn't have children.

Huani felt like the sky was about to fall. She subconsciously looked at Gu Dachui, desperately wanting to know what he was thinking.

But at the same time, she was afraid to know what Gu Dachui was thinking. She knew that she was physically weak and that she might have some difficulties with having children.

But she really didn't want to leave, she really didn't want to go back to that home where they only knew how to treat her as a slave, as a worker, a home devoid of any warmth.
