Famine and exile: I brought the Spirit Spring to save the entire Marquis's mansion.

Back then, how was he any different from his two cousins, given his incompetence?

He can't protect anyone!

Sang Ning understood; he was thinking of that most unbearable period of exile again.

"Okay, let's not think about that anymore. We're both fine! Be good, let go now."

Sang Ning patted his head.

He hugged her too tightly. Although it was innocent and not erotic, the child couldn't tell the difference.

There are three little creatures in front of me!

Jintang pretended to be a gentleman and turned away, but her ears were perked up as she listened.

Jinxiu covered Jinxin's eyes with a serious expression, while she herself openly peeked at the screen with great interest.

Sang Ning felt a little helpless.

"Third Sister-in-law, what are you doing over there?"

Xie Yurou then emerged from the corner, pretending not to have seen anything.

"What's wrong? I was sewing clothes just now."

What are you sewing? The toes of your shoes have been sticking out of the doorway for ages.

"Hey, what are you three doing here? Come inside, wash up, and go to bed."

She pulled one of them into the house, one in each hand.

Huo Chang'an had already let go of Xie Yurou's hand when she came out, but instead of hugging her waist, he held her hand instead.

These hands are not delicate; calluses have formed on the index fingers.

She works very hard every day.

Grinding flour, cooking, growing vegetables—they're constantly busy.

She and her family cleaned up the originally dilapidated house, making it neat and clean.

She was like a seed of sunshine given to the Huo family, making them feel that the sky was getting brighter and brighter...

He kissed the hand that had turned decay into magic with reverence.

Like a butterfly gently alighting on a flower.

The next second, the hand was pulled away, and he was slapped across the face.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I... I have a hand cramp!" Sang Ning explained in a panic.

It was just an instinctive reaction.

Huo Chang'an's actions just now were not ambiguous at all; he seemed to be expressing gratitude for something.

Like the hand-kissing greeting in other countries.

It also carries a sense of worshiping gods and Buddhas.

But that light touch sent a tingling sensation through the back of her hand, like an electric shock straight to her heart.

So, she slapped him as a reflex.

It really wasn't intentional.

“But don’t do that again, I don’t like it,” Sang Ning said, frowning.

They're too intimate.

It felt strange; it wasn't her area of ​​expertise.

After she finished speaking, she hurried to Huo Baohong's house.

When I got to the door, I looked back one last time.

Huo Chang'an was also looking at her.

The two people stared at each other for three seconds, ten meters apart.

The sky was dark, and she couldn't see what kind of look he had in his eyes, but she had a strong intuition, like a net that was firmly locked onto her.

……

Huo Jingya kicked open the dilapidated door of Huo Baohong's house.

Amidst the screams of her two cousins, she rushed straight to the Ding family's house.

"What are you doing? What are you yelling about? Did Qiao come back from the dead?" Ding was full of anger.

"They're all hateful! They don't even know how to serve their own men in bed, do they want to get out of the Huo family too?!"

As soon as I opened the door, I was met by several menacing people who were walking towards me.

"you……"

"Where is my eldest sister-in-law? Where did you take her?" Huo Jingya was the first to ask.

"Second Aunt, where is Cuiyu?"

"Sister-in-law, where did Cuiyu go? Did you really sell her?"

Only then did Ding realize that it was Huo Zhennan's family!

Seeing them only fueled my anger.

"Yang Xinlan! How dare you show your face here? What business is it of yours where my daughter-in-law is!"

"Mother, don't waste your breath on her!" Huo Jingya said, "Let's use Fourth Sister-in-law's method!"

She went up and slapped Ding twice across the face.

This completely stunned Ding.

Jordan Gui was also terrified and immediately hid in a corner, not daring to show his face.

I never expected my aunt's daughter to be so fierce!

She dared to hit her elders!

Ding had a smooth and successful life. Even when she was exiled, there were always people who took the blame for her, so she never experienced being beaten.

This time I finally got to try it.

He was still beaten by a junior.

When they realized what was happening, the noise was loud enough to blow the roof off.

This caused a cacophony of barking from the surrounding dogs.

“Damn Yang Xinlan, damn Huo Zhennan! Your whole family deserves to die…”

Vicious words poured out of Ding's mouth.

"So what if Huo Zhennan was a marquis? He's dead! So what if your son was the top scholar? He's long since rotted and decayed in the ground!"

None of your sons have had a good ending; you're destined to be a lonely widow sooner or later!

The old lady stopped trying to stop her daughter.

She stared blankly at Ding's mouth opening and closing, not understanding what could possibly make Ding utter such vicious words time and time again.

They are clearly family!

Even if her family caused their exile, they shouldn't be cursing like this.

The old lady couldn't take it anymore!

Ding was stabbing her in the heart, one cut after another, stirring up her wounds that had never healed.

She rushed over, but Li Yuzhi was faster than her.

No one expected that she had a gun barrel hidden on her person when she arrived.

It was ground by Huo Chang'an for them to use for self-defense.

At this moment, her eyes were bloodshot, and she saw Ding as an unforgivable villain.

"If you dare to disrespect my husband, you shall die!"

She first thrust her spear at Ding's vicious mouth.

"stop!"

Huo Baohong ran out of the house and pulled away the slow-reacting Ding Shi, but the gun tip still cut Ding Shi's mouth, and a shrill scream rang out.

Amidst the screams, Ding's two daughters trembled and hid inside the house, too afraid to come out.

Jordan Gui was gripped by panic at the thought of getting into trouble, but a growing sense of pleasure also rose from the depths of his heart.

The two sons rushed out, leaning against the wall.

"Sister-in-law! What are you doing!" Huo Baohong shouted.

"What are you doing? Ask yourself, Huo Baohong! I used to try my best to keep you brothers harmonious, but now I realize you're not worthy of being his brother!"

He has lived a life of integrity and uprightness. If he were truly guilty of treason, his entire family should be executed! Do you think you still have a chance to talk to me here? Use your pig brain, you idiot!" The old lady scolded Huo Baohong for the first time.

"You'll suffer the consequences if you're implicated! Who told you to bear the surname Huo! Since my husband deserves to die, you deserve to die too!"

"Sister-in-law, I understand..." Huo Baohong wanted to say something, but the old lady was already utterly disappointed.

I simply don't want to listen to him anymore.

"Stop calling me sister-in-law. Since our two families have such a deep-seated feud, let's sever all ties completely!"

Huo Baohong was shocked: "Sister-in-law! My brother is gone. He certainly wouldn't want to see us..."

"You didn't associate with us while you were alive, and you need us even less after you're dead! My family is ashamed to be associated with ungrateful people like you! Now, I only ask you, where is Cuiyu?"

“Cuiyu?” Huo Baohong asked blankly.

He fainted as soon as he got home, so he didn't know what had happened.

"Jiang Lin, where is Cuiyu?"

Annoyance flashed in Huo Jianglin's eyes: "I don't know!"

"How could you not know? It's already dark, and she's not home?"

“She was sold out by Ding!” Li Yuzhi said, glaring fiercely at Ding.

Now, she doesn't even call her second aunt anymore.

That vicious old bastard doesn't deserve it!

She would kill anyone who dared to insult Huo Qingchuan!

Huo Baohong looked at Ding Shi in disbelief.

Huo Jianglin stared blankly at him.

"Mother, what... what did you do to her?"

Ding covered her sore lip and glared at Yang and the others with hatred.

The short candle emitted a faint, glowing light, illuminating her face with its prominent cheekbones.

With such bone structure, one would be pampered and comfortable when wealthy and noble, as the flesh would support the bone, making one look alright, though perhaps a bit sharp.

But once he loses weight, he appears particularly harsh and domineering, with an ungrateful demeanor.

At this moment, her face was half-hidden, her eyes sinister, like that of a witch.

"What can I do to her? Just like last time, she volunteered to save you. I couldn't stop her. How do you think you got out? It's all thanks to my good daughter-in-law!"
