Thanos's biological daughter in period fiction

On the Mid-Autumn Festival, the family of five got up early to start cleaning the house. Their luggage was already packed, and the cabinets had been moved to the yard outside. They were just waiting for the people Xia Jixuan had hired to help move the cabinets to their new home.

After they cleaned it up, Xia Qingchuan and his son would move in. Of course, the Xia family would inevitably be there to watch the show, saying that they had sold their house for a worthless child and would now have to sleep on the streets. The eldest and second sons didn't even bother to go and distribute the grain; they just stood under the eaves, enjoying the spectacle and making sarcastic remarks.

Liu Fangmei thought she was in a good mood today, so she wouldn't bother with them. Anyway, they wouldn't be living in the same courtyard anymore, so even if they met on the street, she wouldn't greet them. It would be best if they never saw each other again.

There's really no concept of brotherhood in the Xia family. From childhood to adulthood, Old Man Xia always believed that only what he could grab could be obtained, which meant that his five siblings were always rivals.

In such an environment, how could any brotherhood possibly develop? When he was 16, he almost starved to death in a dilapidated house. Just then, a unit was recruiting, so he went with them. That was during the most intense period of the war, and he never thought he would come back alive.

Back then, he was just trying to make a living and never imagined he would stay in the army for more than ten years. Now he is the captain of the Flying Eagle Brigade in the special forces. Because of the special nature of his work, his family only knows that his rank is battalion commander.

Actually, he still had a lot of money, but he was in such a hurry to leave that he forgot to take his bankbook. The only money he had was 100 yuan that the regimental commander had given him before he left. He spent nearly 30 yuan on some medicine, train tickets, and meals on the train.

He was in a hurry and bought his train ticket from someone else, so it's normal that it was a bit more expensive.

After getting off the bus in the county town, he didn't dare to buy anything and hurried down the road. Luckily, he ran fast, otherwise his daughter would have died again, just like in his dream.

When he returned home, he was a complete mess, and the sight of him holding his daughter, whose head was covered in blood, terrified everyone in the Xia family who were at home.

He originally intended to go back to the house to find his wife, but his mother thought he wanted money from her to save their daughter. Before he could even speak, his mother said she had no money. She wouldn't allow him to buy anything on credit from the brigade headquarters, and even suggested he wrap the money in a tattered piece of clothing and throw it on the back hill.

At that time, his daughter was still breathing and crying out in pain. When he heard his mother say that she would be thrown into the back mountain, his heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.

And look at her now, that little girl with two braids sitting on the kang cabinet. He is truly grateful for that sudden dream. He will do more good deeds when he has money in the future, as a way of thanking God for reminding him.

Xia Yutang, who was sitting on the kang cabinet with her little feet on it, suddenly felt someone watching her. She turned her head and met her father's doting gaze.

Xia Yutang smiled and looked at her father. It was wonderful that she could be her father and daughter for another lifetime.

The little girl is well-behaved and a bit thin, but when she smiles, her two little dimples make her look especially cute.

"..." Xia Yutang couldn't speak, but she smiled as soon as she saw her father coming over. Xia Jixuan could understand what his daughter meant to some extent.

"Sweetie, we'll be leaving soon. Uncle Shan and the others are coming to help move the cabinets. Come on, let Daddy carry you down first."

The heartwarming scene between the father and daughter was seen as pretentious by Old Lady Xia: "Pah, she's just a money-loser..."

After uttering just that one curse, Old Lady Xia remembered the incident from a couple of days ago when Liu Fangmei had told them to go up on the roof and splash water on her. She immediately shut up.

Finally, food was being distributed, and she wouldn't starve to death, so she'd been in a good mood these past few days. She didn't want to cause another scene because of a few words she'd said. Not only would it bring bad luck, but it wouldn't make the old man happy either.

"We'll ignore Tangtang. If you walk by, just call out to her. Whether she answers or not is up to her." The old woman could disregard his daughter, but his daughter couldn't be allowed to have a bad reputation because of the Xia family.

In this era, reputation is so important. His daughter is only three and a half years old. We can't let them ruin his reputation.

Xia Yutang felt that since she couldn't speak now, it didn't matter to her whether she called out or not.

Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, but everyone is so busy right now that they haven't even remembered that it's a holiday.

Of course, some people came out to watch the fun, but they were just a bunch of kids. Pei Qingshu and his friends who usually played together also came to help move things.

When everyone helped deliver the things to the new house, they were all dumbfounded.

It turns out that the family that spent a lot of money to renovate this big courtyard was Xia Jixuan's family. Some knowledgeable people know that Xia Jixuan has been serving in the army for so many years and must have money on him. It's not surprising that Xia Jixuan could afford to buy a courtyard.

No one thought much of it, and everyone pitched in to help move the things into the house, arranging the cabinets according to Xia Jixuan's instructions. In less than half an hour, the empty house was almost filled up.

After everything was put away, Xia Jixuan prepared some sorghum candy for them. He had bought it when he went to town to register his household registration, just in case, and now it came in handy.

"We don't have much food right now, so we can't invite everyone to help us cook. Here are some candies for you to take home and sweeten your mouths, as a way of thanking you all for your help." When the two little ones heard their father say this, they quickly took some sorghum candy from the basket and each grabbed two handfuls. Their hands were still quite small, so each of them only grabbed two handfuls.

Actually, if you count them carefully, it's about 8 per person. After these two caught some, a tree appeared, and everyone caught 8.

Their father said that he was working outside and couldn't take care of the family too much, so he was generous to the neighbors who helped him. He thought that if they needed his help in the future, they would be more willing to help him.

The two little ones remembered their father's words: they were especially polite to all the uncles, elders, brothers, and friends who came to help at home.

After seeing everyone off, the family of five closed the door and burst into laughter. Although the little girl couldn't make a sound, she laughed happily too, finally free from the wolf's den of the Xia family.

"Come, come, we're moving into our new house today. What would you like to eat? Mom will make it for you." Liu Fangmei felt even happier today than on her wedding day. She was finally able to make her own decisions and work hard for her own little family.

"Finally we moved, Dad. You have no idea how long I've been waiting for this day. My brother and I got some good food on the mountain, but we didn't dare bring it home. Otherwise, my older brother would snatch it, and Grandma would scold us for being ungrateful, for not thinking of our aunt and brother when we got something good to eat." Xia Qingyan had so many complaints. His own mother was always hungry and cold, so why should they give the things they secretly got from the mountain to his older brother and aunt?
