“Sister-in-law, my signal here is bad and I can’t hear anything.” Feeling guilty, Qi Hao didn’t dare reply and immediately hung up. He no longer dared to complain. What should he do? His sister-in-law actually knew about this!
The car took Qi Hao back to the Qi family house with half a bag of rice. He wanted to cry but had no tears to shed. Why was his luck so f*cking bad? Why were all the bad things squeezed together?
On the second floor of the Qi family house, the Qi family’s Second Aunt happened to see her son coming over from the garage and carrying half a bag of rice. Her heart ached terribly, and she hurriedly went downstairs and waited for him at the door.
Sure enough, seeing her precious son carrying half a bag of rice with sweat on his forehead, Second Aunt’s heart ached. “Baby, why are you carrying such a big bag of rice? Did someone make you do this? Are you tired?”
Qi Hao usually thought that his mother was too naggy, but when he saw her, he felt aggrieved.
Damn!
A big and tall kid bawled with red eyes like an unweaned child. “Mom!”
Second Aunt’s heart ached when she heard this choked sobs. “Baby, what’s wrong with you? Tell me. What grievances have you suffered? I’ll settle them for you!”
Qi Hao’s sudden howls startled the Qi family’s Second Uncle into coming out of the living room. Second Aunt was already distressed at seeing her son carry half a bag of rice. Seeing her husband, she immediately had him help with the rice.
But Qi Hao just wouldn’t let him and insisted on carrying it himself.
Compared with Second Aunt’s excessive doting, Second Uncle sometimes felt that he couldn’t spoil his child too much. Furthermore, Qi Hao was a boy. But this son of his was his only child. Seeing his son’s red eyes, Second Uncle also thought that the child had suffered some grievance. His heart ached, and he subconsciously used Second Aunt’s pet name for Qi Hao. “Baby, I’ll help you carry this half-bag of rice. I’ll do it. This thing is too heavy! But where on earth did you buy half a bag of rice?” Seeing that the kid wasn’t willing to give it to him, Second Uncle hurriedly said, “I’ll carry it next to you, and you can tell me where to put it down later?”
Only then did Qi Hao give the bag to his father.
The Qi family’s Second Uncle, on the other hand, was puzzled. The two or three hundred bags of rice that this kid had bought before were still in the warehouse. He really didn’t understand why this kid was interested in buying rice these days.
“Baby, the injuries on your face are all healed? Which divine doctor did you find to take a look?” Second Aunt finally noticed something was strange. This kid had gone out last night with a bruised and swollen face. He had clearly been beaten quite badly by Zhenbai, so how come there wasn’t the slightest injury on his face today? Or had Zhenbai just been pretending, and hadn’t gone all out at all?
As soon as Second Aunt spoke, Second Uncle also gave Qi Hao a bewildered look and was surprised.
Qi Hao felt aggrieved when his parents brought it up. This was simply his bloody history!
When he thought of the tragedy of being beaten by his brother and how Lu Chengfu only gave him half of the spirit rice, Qi Hao didn’t want to say a word. In the end, he choked out, “Mom, I want to eat porridge now!”
“Okay, okay, okay… Mom will have Auntie cook it for you. You can eat as much as you want!” Seeing that her son didn’t want to say anything more, Second Aunt didn’t ask further. She turned around and was about to go back to the living room to instruct the kitchen aunt.
“Mom, I want to eat porridge cooked with this rice!”
“Okay, okay, okay… Let your dad carry this bag of rice in first, then put it in the warehouse later!”
“No, I want to put it in my room!”
Second Aunt and Second Uncle: …
