Chapter 40 Breaking in
After teaching Xiao Huai, Tao Qiuyi looked at Li Zi again.

"Lizi, when you saw your brother being beaten, you ran over to stop him. Your intention was good. But you also prevented your brother from dodging, because if he dodged you would get beaten. So, don't do that again next time."

"Okay, I understand." Li Zi seemed to understand but didn't ask why. She was determined to follow her sister-in-law's instructions.

"Be good." Tao Qiuyi liked obedient children and warned the brother and sister, "In short, remember this: your grandma and the others can scold you as they please, it won't hurt you. If they hit you, just run away or close the door and don't go out. Protect yourself first and wait for me to come back."

After saying this, Tao Qiuyi thought of Wei Jingyuan who was recuperating in the house. He felt that it would not be enough to teach only the two younger ones, the older ones had to be taught as well. He walked around Li Zi and Xiao Huai into the yard and went straight into the house.

When he opened the door and saw that there was no one in the room, Tao Qiuyi was stunned for a moment, then turned around and asked the two siblings.

"Where is your eldest brother?" Tao Qiuyi asked calmly.

The brother and sister suddenly felt that their sister-in-law looked a little... scary, and Li Zi held Xiao Huai's arm tightly.

Xiao Huai lowered his eyes to glance at Li Zi and replied, "My eldest brother was carried to Third Grandfather's house by his two cousins to see Third Grandfather for treatment."

He went to see a patient and was carried there by someone. Tao Qiuyi felt like an old nanny last night. His endless instructions had become a joke.

"Wei Jingyuan really thinks he is the savior, yet he can still treat patients even though he is injured like that. Okay, okay, very good. It seems like he ignored everything I told him last night." Tao Qiuyi was angry, very angry.

Seeing that her sister-in-law had misunderstood, Lizi hurriedly explained, "It wasn't my eldest brother who wanted to go, he was carried there by his cousins."

"What do you mean?" Tao Qiuyi looked at Li Zi, waiting for her to explain.

"Sister-in-law, don't be angry. Big brother didn't disobey you." Li Zi explained, "Big brother was carried by his cousins to see Third Grandpa."

After all, it still means the same thing. Tao Qiuyi sighed helplessly, "Xiao Huai, you go ahead and say it."

"It's just as Xiaoli said, but big brother didn't go there voluntarily." Xiaohuai said simply but with shocking meaning.

If he didn't go there voluntarily, then he was forced to do so. Tao Qiuyi's anger towards Wei Jingyuan had mostly dissipated. He casually put the backpack in the house, and put it into the ring space the moment he closed the door.

She may not have the intention to harm others, but she is definitely on guard against others.

"Let's go to your Third Grandfather's house." Tao Qiuyi walked out while calling the twins, "Xiao Huai, take me there, and Li Zi should go too."

She wanted to see how seriously ill the so-called Third Uncle was. She was willing to carry him to his home to treat him, regardless of how badly Wei Jingyuan was injured.

Tao Qiuyi walked very fast, wearing the cloth shoes that Li Zi made for her yesterday, which were light and comfortable.

If she hadn't considered Xiao Huai and Li Zi, she could have walked faster.

Xiao Huai could barely keep up with Tao Qiuyi's pace. Li Zi couldn't even keep up with them even if she jogged behind them. She could only try her best not to fall too far behind. On the way, they passed by several families' yards. When they arrived in front of a wooden yard gate, Xiao Huai called out to stop.

"Is this the one?" Stopping in front of the courtyard gate, Tao Qiuyi asked Xiao Huai, who was a few steps behind him, and glanced at Li Zi, who was lagging behind.

"Yes." Xiao Huai nodded breathlessly.

In order to keep up with his sister-in-law, he and Xiaoli risked their lives.

"Xiao Huai, knock on the door." Tao Qiuyi ordered in a calm voice.

Xiao Huai reached out and knocked on the wooden door a few times. After waiting for about a minute, there was no movement from inside. He looked at Tao Qiuyi, who nodded, motioning him to continue. He knocked a few more times. Still no movement from inside.

"Xiao Huai, call for help." Tao Qiuyi's voice became much softer. The pills were gradually changing her physique, while also improving her vision and hearing.

She could hear clearly every movement in the yard and even in the house.

Xiao Huai's eyes flashed, and he felt that his sister-in-law's voice was different from before. Without thinking too much, he cleared his throat, "Third Grandfather, Fifth Uncle, Sixth Uncle, I'm Xiao Huai, I'm here to look for my eldest brother, Fifth Uncle, Sixth..."

"Xiao Huai, stop yelling." Tao Qiuyi stopped Xiao Huai and told him to step back a few steps to take care of Li Zi who had just arrived. "Listen up, everyone inside. I'm here to find Wei Jingyuan. Either open the door and let me in, or send Wei Jingyuan out."

"I'll count to three. If I don't see Wei Jingyuan, I'll break in."

Tao Qiuyi's voice was not loud, but it was loud enough for the people inside to hear.

yard.

"Brother, don't stop me. Let me go out and teach her a lesson. I want to see how she breaks in. How dare she act wildly at our doorstep? Do you think we brothers are easy to bully?" The teenager angrily pushed the young man who grabbed his arm.

"Just be quiet." The young man rolled his eyes at him, his tone somewhat unfriendly, because he was holding his breath.

Grandpa asked him and his brother to carry his cousin Jingyuan home, but he disagreed. He tried to persuade Grandpa, but Grandpa didn't listen, and there was nothing he could do.

"What happened?" A voice sounded behind him.

The boy and the young man turned around and saw someone walking out of the main room. It was their aunt Li Yuegui.

"Aunt Li." The boy and the young man called out at the same time. The young man asked, "Did Cousin Yuan agree?"

"No, your cousin Yuan is also stubborn. Even with a room full of elders trying to persuade him, he still refused to give in. Really..." Li Yuegui shook her head and sighed, looking at the two of them and asked, "I heard a sound, is Xiao Huai here?"

Li Yuegui asked knowingly. She not only heard Xiao Huai's voice in the main room, but also heard Tao Qiuyi's threatening words.

Not only her, but everyone in the main room heard it, including Wei Jingyuan.

"Not only did Xiao Huai come, he also brought Tao Qiuyi with him. Just now, Tao Qiuyi threatened us outside the door, saying that if she counted to three and didn't see cousin Yuan, she would break in." The young man's words were recounted with some disdain.

The young man glanced at the boy and said nothing.

Li Yuegui looked gently at the boy, then at the young man, "Don't be afraid, you two brothers. Tao Qiuyi may look fierce, but she doesn't dare to do anything. Come on, I'll go to the door with you two brothers and see if she really dares to break it in."

The young man agreed, "Aunt Li is right, brother, we don't need to be afraid of her. There are so many of us, and we are afraid of a woman like her. If this gets out, won't we be ridiculed?"

Being young and inexperienced is what people at his age are talking about.

The young man was not as arrogant as the boy, but he also didn't believe that Tao Qiuyi really dared to break the door. Besides, where would a woman get the strength to break the door?
"Three." A number of three was heard outside the door.

With a bang, a courtyard door flew over and directly passed over the heads of Li Yuegui and the other two, and landed at the door of the main hall. The sound was quite loud, but the door was not broken.

Not only Li Yuegui and the other two in the yard, but also everyone in the main room were startled by the sound.
