Era: After foreseeing the future, I changed my fate using spatial abilities.

Chapter 124 The incident happened
Duyan Commune, First Production Brigade.

When Qin Fen and his wife returned to the team, the second work bell had just rung, which shows how early the couple had gotten up.

Although my body was inevitably a little tired, my mental state was visibly vibrant.

"Father, Mother, you're back? Where's Xiaolian?"

Qin Haiyang, who was about to go to work with his wife and two younger brothers, felt much relieved when he saw his parents approaching. His worries, which had lasted all night, were immediately put to rest.

She looked around but couldn't see her younger sister. The smile on her face vanished before it could even bloom. "Didn't Xiaolian come back with you?"

The three Qin brothers are close in age, but the eldest brother and the youngest sister are nearly ten years apart.

He raised almost all of his younger siblings single-handedly, and he felt even more guilty than his parents about his sister's burns.

I blame myself for not keeping a closer eye on my younger sister that night, for insisting on joining the fun, and for letting go of her hand without thinking…

That guilt and self-blame caused the cheerful and lively Qin Haiyang to change drastically. The teenager, who was only a little over ten years old, almost forced himself to become mature and steady.

Over the years, the three brothers have fought countless times because of their sister. Even when Qin Haiyang was looking for a wife, his first requirement was that she be someone who would genuinely treat his sister well.

In other families, girls had to help with chores as soon as they could walk. As they got older, they not only had to gather pig feed to earn work points, but also had to wash clothes and do housework.

But things were different in the Qin family. No one, from top to bottom, wanted Xiaolian to do anything, both inside and outside the house. Everyone kept her close to their hearts.

"Oh right, Dad, where is Xiaolian? Didn't they say there was some secret medicine for removing scars? Does it work?"

The quickest-witted of them all, Qin Haitian, darted around with his eyes, then suddenly followed his two older brothers excitedly, asking, "Did it work? So Xiaolian stayed there for treatment?!"

"Correct."

Seeing the expectant look in his son and daughter-in-law's eyes, Qin Fen, unusually, didn't keep a straight face. He smiled and nodded vigorously, "Xiao Su's family's herbal ointment is incredibly effective at removing scars. This time, our Xiao Lian has truly met a benefactor and is saved!"

"Is this true, Dad?"

"Great, so great!"

"Father, Mother, have you witnessed the medicine's effects with your own eyes? Did that Xiao Su say how long the treatment would take? Can our little sister be cured completely?"

"Since the ointment is effective, we need to get treatment. How much will the treatment cost?"

The brothers were all very excited when they heard his words, and they all spoke at the same time, their voices rising involuntarily as if a pot had exploded.

Hearing the commotion, Old Lady Qin, leaning on her cane, slowly walked to the door. Having overheard the entire conversation, she couldn't help but burst into tears of joy.

He pounded his cane on the ground with a loud thud, "Treat her! We'll pay whatever it takes! I've got money!"

"Mother, what are you saying? How can I let you use your savings for your funeral..."

"You know nothing!"

Old Granny Qin had a bandit-like air about her. In her youth, she had fought alongside that short-lived old man on the battlefield and lived a simple life. Even now, though she was old and her legs were not strong, she still had an aura that set her apart from the other old women in the village.

"I'm not dead yet, why would I need money for a coffin? Even if I die, I won't have that kind of money. What, you think you can just wrap me up in a tattered mat and bury me however you like?"

Is that what he meant by those words?

Qin Fen looked at his mother with a mixture of amusement and exasperation, feeling helpless but not daring to argue back.

He'll get really angry later, but won't he be the one who feels the pain?
"There's no room for discussion on this. Listen to me, I'll give anything to cure Little Lotus!"

She has carefully saved the retirement money her son and daughter gave her over the years. If that's not enough, there's also the small yellow croaker her husband left her.

Nothing material possessions can compare to her grandson's lifelong happiness.

After saying this, Old Lady Qin turned and headed into her room. Her aggressive demeanor made it seem to those who didn't know her that she was going to dig up dirt on her family, but others might have thought she was going to pull out weapons and start a fight.

Once again stunned, the father and his sons remained motionless.

……

Ancient market, Lao Huang's house.

With the support and encouragement of her family, Huang Mingzhu, having made up her mind, quickly severed ties with Yan Bin and went through a divorce. She even came forward to report him and testify, dealing him a heavy blow.

When the final verdict came, everyone involved was caught and severely punished, and the ringleaders were all executed.

Having just had a big fight with her grief-stricken former mother-in-law, Liu Jinhua, Huang Mingzhu's disheveled appearance and bloody claw marks couldn't dampen her spirits.

She was finally free, both physically and mentally… “Zhuzhu, are you stupid? Liu Jinhua, that swordsman, attacked you and you couldn’t beat her, so you didn’t even know to run away? Look at your face and neck, oh my… you really are a shameless old hag!”

"Mom, I won't lose out if I pull all her hair out too."

"I told you not to go, but you insisted. What's so interesting about feeding peanuts? It's creepy and you got beaten up for nothing. I really don't know what to say to you!"

"Alright, alright, old woman, stop babbling on and on. If you had the time to keep going like that, Zhuzhu's medicine would have been ready by now!"

"Hey, you old man..."

"Bang bang bang!"

"Knock knock~ Uncle, Auntie, are you home? Brother Zongbao, Sister Mingzhu? Is anyone home?"

A series of urgent knocks came from the door, and the three people in the main room stopped talking.

Huang Daneng got up and glanced at his wife and daughter. "The voice sounds like Yangzi from Old An's house next door. I'll go see what's going on."

"Father, let me go."

Seeing that he simply waved his hand and didn't stop walking, Huang Mingzhu pressed her twitching eyelid and suddenly had a bad feeling. "Mother, I'll go with you and see!"

After clapping until his hands were red, An Yang finally saw the gate open. Without thinking twice, he started clapping away.

"Uncle Neng, something terrible has happened! Your Tian Tian is in trouble! You need to go to Beizhengfu Street right away!"

"What? Something happened to Tian Tian? What happened?"

The Tang family isn't on Beizhengfu Street, so what was Tang Tian doing there?
Completely bewildered, Huang Daneng was momentarily stunned. "Yangzi, explain yourself clearly!"

"The gist of the matter is that Tian Tian... cough, she was having an affair and made too much noise... cough, she got caught red-handed, and I heard that a lot of Red Guards are going to force them to be paraded through the streets with placards hanging up their faces!"

"what?!"

"What did you say... Dad!" "Uncle Neng!"

Huang Daneng felt dizzy and lightheaded, almost fainting, but fortunately, the two people in front and behind him supported him in time.

"Is Yangzi's information reliable? Is it definitely about our Tiantian?"

While trying to calm her furious father, Huang Mingzhu looked up at An Yang, her voice filled with disbelief, "How could Tian Tian do such a thing!"

Although the aunt and niece had just had a disagreement, their genuine love and care for each other over the years is not fake.

In her eyes and heart, Tian Tian was still that delicate and cute little girl. How could she do such a thing?

"Nafu Street isn't far from several factories. You all know my eldest son works at the cannery. He sent someone to deliver a message..."

Anyang's eldest son is clever and quick-witted. Everyone in the neighborhood knows his character; he is filial, warm-hearted, and reliable. Since it was he who brought back the news, it is almost certainly true.

Huang Daneng, who had just choked on his own hand and was catching his breath, pushed away the hand that was supporting him and turned around. "Zhuzhu, go, go and call your older brother over right away!"

"Okay, then, sister-in-law..."

"Why bring up that family that doesn't want their children or care for them! I'll go check on them first, you guys come over quickly!"

"Uncle Neng, you can have Mingzhu accompany you. I'll go inform Brother Zongbao!"

Not only was Huang Mingzhu worried, but An Yang was also very worried, seeing the elderly man's hands still trembling slightly despite his efforts to control them.

"Then, Yangzi, I'd like to trouble you to make another trip. Thank you!"

"Hey, we've been neighbors for so many years. I grew up with your brother, so saying this is just being polite. Uncle Neng, I'll be going now!"

Nodding gratefully at him, and seeing that An Yang didn't say anything more and immediately turned to leave, Huang Daneng squeezed his daughter's outstretched hand, "Zhuzhu, let's go too."

"Okay, Dad, I'll go tell Mom first..."

“I heard everything, let’s go together.”

……

Beizhengfu Street.

"What did you say? You actually want me to marry that ugly, poor toad? Am I even your biological child?!"

Tang Tian covered the left side of her face, looking agitated. She pointed at her father with her other finger and screamed so loudly that her voice cracked.
