704 Running Away

“You hit me! How dare you hit me! I’ve worked so hard in your Qiao family for so many years. Even if I don’t have any achievements, I still deserve credit for my efforts! Are you sick of living anymore! Qiao Gui,do you think my entire maternal family is dead!” Wang Qin shouted at Qiao Gui.

Qiao Gui did not care about how many people there were in Wang Qin’s maternal family. He only cared about how much money he had in his pocket. In the past, Wang Qin could bring in money and make him look good, so he was very loving towards her.

However, now this woman only knew how to waste the family’s money and cause trouble for them. She even caused him to be reprimanded, beaten and scolded by Qiao Zhuang. He was already a grown man, but he was still beaten up by his father.

All of this was caused by Wang Qin. What was wrong with him slapping her now?

Qiao Zhuang had beaten up Shen Ge for his entire life, but he had never seen Shen Ge run away.

“When has your maternal family ever helped us! They only come for our money!” Qiao Gui said.

If she had known this would happen, she would not have married Qiao Gui. Back then, there were so many good families to choose from. If she had known that Qiao Gui would hit her, she would not have married him even if she had to die of poverty!

Wang Qin lay on the ground and wept helplessly. She wanted to get a divorce like Li Gui, but if she got a divorce, how could she continue to survive in this village?

This was especially since she had offended Auntie Dong. If Auntie Dong found out about this, she might say something behind her back that would be as unpleasant as it could get!

When Qiao Gui saw Wang Qin like this, he suddenly came back to his senses. He quickly pulled Wang Qin up from the ground and checked the wounds on her body.

“I didn’t do it on purpose…” Qiao Gui said softly.

Wang Qin ignored him and continued to cry. She kept rattling, “If you had worked hard, would I have to earn money like this! Whenever I have any money, I would have to give it to your father. We should have lived separately from him a long time ago. Why do I still have to give him my salary every month? You’re so disappointing. What right do you have to vent your anger on me? If you’re so capable, go look for your father!”

What Wang Qin said was the truth. Qiao Gui was a person who bullied the weak and feared the strong. Qiao Zhuang was an ultra control freak. After so many years, they still had to hand their salaries to Qiao Zhuang.

If he did not get married and still lived at home, and Qiao Zhuang paid for his daily living expenses, it would not be too much for him to have to give Qiao Zhuang money. However, they already had their own family for so many years and still did not have a single cent of savings.

All the money was with Qiao Zhuang.

“You know my father’s character… How would I dare to…” Qiao Gui said.

Wang Qin could not blame anyone but herself for being unlucky enough to marry such an asshole.

He Ning and Huo Gao did not pay much attention to the commotion as long as it did not disturb their rest. At dawn, they boarded the horse carriage and left the village.

They had wanted to go to Qiao Mei’s house for breakfast, but Qiao Mei had probably thought of this as well. The door was closed early in the morning and no matter how they shouted, she did not open it.

Qiao Yu had also packed her things last night. In the morning, she used the excuse of going out to pick wild vegetables and collect firewood to leave the house. In order not to be discovered, she even went into the mountains and made a detour.

It was too dark last night and He Ning did not manage to see Qiao Yu clearly. He could only make out a rough outline of her figure.

“Big brother, I’m coming!” Qiao Yu quickly climbed up from behind the soil mound at the bottom of the slope.

He Ning looked at her in disdain and asked, “Who are you?”

“I’m Qiao Yu! Big brother, don’t you recognize me?” Qiao Yu scratched her head in embarrassment.

The look of disdain on He Ning’s face became even more obvious. She was not at all good-looking and could not even be considered ordinary-looking. Not only was her face covered in freckles, but she also had big dark circles around her eyes. Due to the fact that she had not had enough to eat for a long time nor wore warm clothes, her face was thin and sunken. From afar, one would think that she was a drug addict.

“Alright… get in,” He Ning said.

By the time Qiao Zhuang and the others realized that Qiao Yu had disappeared, it was already nighttime.

When she went out in the morning, everyone thought that it was quite a good thing. If there was one less mouth to feed at home, the others would be able to eat more. However, when she did not come back at nighttime, it was obvious that she had run away.

“Did any of you see where that b*tch went?” Qiao Zhuang asked as he suppressed his anger.

Everyone shook their heads. Wang Qin and Qiao Gui were even more afraid and hid far away, afraid that Qiao Yu’s matter would implicate their family.

“Second son, did your guests leave today?” Qiao Zhuang asked.
