When Qin Xu heard the news, he was scared out of his wits. He immediately ran to Madam Wangs side and said anxiously, “You also heard it, a big disaster is coming, hurry up and find Mother’s money box! Without gold and silver, how can we escape?”
However, Madam Wang seemed to have heard nothing. She looked at Qin Xu in disdain and then spat fiercely.
“Bah! Even if I take out the money box, there won’t be a share for us mother and children. You’ll still run away with the money!”
“Since a great disaster is coming, then let’s all die together!”
She was certain that Qin Xu wouldn’t just sit around and wait for death, so she deliberately said this.
After Qin Xu left, she would take the money box out and run for her life with Qin Qingyuan and his sister!
Qin Xu stared at Madam Wang, the veins on his forehead bulging. He wanted to crush her bones and scatter her ashes.
In the past, this woman was submissive. She didn’t even dare to take a breath when he glared at her. Now, not only did she dare to use a knife on him, but she even threatened to die with him!
She had lived long enough, but he hadn’t!
“Good. Good, Madam Wang. From today onwards, you’ll get the hell back to your mother’s house. M/hen this matter is over, I’ll definitely divorce you with a divorce letter. Just you wait!”
After Qin Xu finished shouting fiercely, he turned around and ran away. He didn’t even look at his son and daughter.
Although he didn’t have much money on hand, he could still sell some old goods for a few copper coins after tidying up his clothes and decorations. It would be better to last a day than to leave it to this woman!
Madam Wang watched Qin Xu Run away, but her heart didn’t waver at all.
She had long been disheartened by him and had no more thoughts about him, so how could there be any hope or disappointment?
“Qingyuan, Qingfei, let’s go home. Pack some clothes and go to Grandma with Mother.”
Madam Wangs house was also a few dozen miles away from here. If they quickly set off now, they might be able to arrive before night fell.
It was not a wise choice to spend the night in the wilderness during winter. If they were to delay any longer, they would have to wait until the next morning before they could set off.
Qin Qingfei was about to complain, but she swallowed her words when Qin Qingyuan glared at her coldly.
The two of them followed Madam Wang in silence. When they returned home and saw that the courtyard seemed to have been ransacked, they did not look surprised at all.
Other than the three of them, there was no other living thing in the yard. The last few chickens, ducks, pigs, and lambs were all stuffed into a sack by Qin Xu and were exchanged for money.
They returned to their rooms and were not surprised to see that their rooms had also been ransacked. Even the good clothes that the siblings had hidden had disappeared.
Qin Xu had thoroughly ransacked the place. As long as it was something that could be sold for a few dollars, he had taken it all away.
Madam Wang actually laughed out loud when she saw this scene.
As expected of what Qin Xu did. Every time he did something, it would refresh her knowledge.
She waited quietly for a while before asking Qin Qingyuan to prepare three bamboo baskets. She packed the remaining clothes and put them into the bamboo baskets.
At the top of the basket were a few bags of dried wild vegetables and some dried medicinal herbs, but there was no dry food.
Ever since Qin Xu came back, all the food she had shamelessly gotten from the villagers’ houses had basically gone into his mouth. Now, the rice bucket in the kitchen was cleaner than her face, so there was no extra food to make dry food.
Even the sorghum and millet, which were the most difficult to swallow, were gone. Qin Xu was completely ruthless. Even if he was heartless to her, his disobedient wife, he wouldn’t be like this to his children.
Even a vicious tiger would not eat its cubs.
Qin Xu’s behavior was worse than an animal’s.
Madam Wang calmly packed up the things she was going to take with her and left the Qin family’s house with Qin Qingyuan and Qin Qingfei.
This time, she didn’t even lock the door.
The house had been ransacked. Unless the doors, windows, tables, and chairs were all torn down, there was nothing of value left.
Besides, she had already made up her mind to never return to the Qin family. The most valuable thing of the Qin family was in her hands, and there was nothing here that was worth her nostalgia.
After Madam Wang left, someone soon found that the courtyard door of the
Qin family’s house was open. The courtyard was empty and there was nothing
Some people went in curiously and found that almost everything had been taken away except for some heavy personal belongings.
Only then did they realize that Qin Xu family had run away with the money. Some people didn’t want to give up and wanted to find more things in the house. However, no matter how they searched, they found nothing.
The Qin family didn’t even have many worthless things left, let alone valuable things.
Everyone finally gave up and hurried home to pack their things and prepare to escape.
As the carriage drove out of the Qin Village, Tang Tang couldn’t help but stick her head out of the window. She looked at the Qin Village that was gradually disappearing into the distance, and then turned back to look at MO Ruyue.
“Mother, will we ever come back here?”
Mo Ruyue only told the babies that they were going on a long trip, but she didn’t say where they were going or what they were going to do.
However, Tang Tang had noticed something from MO Ruyue’s movements, so MO Ruyue was very surprised when she asked this question.
“Tang Tang, we will have to leave the Qin Village sooner or later, so I’m letting you guys get used to it first.”
She couldn’t explain the prophecy that a catastrophe was about to come, so she could only take a step back and find another excuse.
“Just like when we went to Grandpa Bai l s house, was it also to slowly adapt to life after leaving the Qin Village?
Tang Tang asked again.
MO Ruyue wouldn’t tell her babies that she was being watched. Perhaps it wouldn’t be too late to tell them when they were a little older and at least had a certain ability to protect themselves.
Although the blood tower would soon cease to exist, with MO Ruyue’s current ability and sharpness, it was hard to guarantee that she would not be targeted again.
“Yes, and Master Bai l s family has a good relationship with Mother, and they have also kindly invited her, so it’s not a bad idea for Mother to use this as a transition.”
MO Ruyue’s explanation received Tang Tangs approval. She nodded seriously and said, “I know, Mother.”
“Ruyue, if not to the Bai Residence, where are we going? It’s almost the
Lantern Festival, are we going to spend the festival on the road?”
Aunt Liu also asked.
She kept feeling that MO Ruyue was hiding something, and the village chief’s words had also made her a little worried.
“Well, this kind of festival should be a very new experience for the babies. In any case, we’ll only consider next semester after the beginning of spring, so there’s no hurry.”
The answers that MO Ruyue gave were very reasonable, so Mrs. Liu couldn’t find any fault with them. She could only nod and say, “You’re right. It’s better to let the children walk around than to be trapped in the mountain village forever.
After they left the mountain, the carriage obviously began to speed up.
The two black horses were worthy of being called top quality precious horses. Even at this speed, the carriage was still very stable.
Gu Ying’s horse-controlling skills were also top-notch. He could even hold the reins with ease, as long as he gave the two horses an order occasionally.
When he heard the voice coming from the carriage, his lips curled up slightly.
Bing ‘Er’s ability to “lie” was getting better and better, but she didn’t want to use it on him..
