Chapter 62: Educating Qiao Yu
Qiao Mei and Qiao Qiang were sitting in the courtyard eating beef noodles.
After selling the bean sprouts these few days, she had some spare cash and got XIao Liu to send a few bags of rice and noodles to her. Now, there will be an abundance of food at home.
They did not need to fear going hungry again.
When Qiao Mei heard Qiao Yu’s voice, she immediately put down her chopsticks, picked up a thick wooden stick and headed towards Qiao Yu to hit her.
If Qiao Yu had not squatted down immediately, her face would have been injured.!!
“Didn’t I tell you not to come to my house for nothing? You’re not welcome at my house. If you come again, I’ll break your legs!”
Qiao Mei had a ferocious look on her face when she said that.
Qiao Yu shook her head and put on a pitiful expression.
She looked at Qiao Mei and gave a wistful look at the beef sauce on the table in the courtyard.
The beef sauce was so fragrant!
She already smelled it from afar. If she could get a taste, it did not matter even if she was beaten to death.
“Elder sis Qiao Mei, no one at home knows that I’m here. Because of what happened last time, I haven’t eaten for three days. I’m starving!”
Qiao Yu blinked as tears welled up in her eyes.
Her nose was red and she pursed her lips.
“What has it got to do with me that you haven’t eaten? Am I supposed to feed you?” Qiao Mei yelled, anger all over her face. “Besides, I haven’t even settled the score with you for what happened last time and yet you eagerly come looking for me. You really don’t know what’s good for you!”
At the mention of the dowry, Qiao Mei got really furious.
The matter of the dowry was originally the fault of Qiao Zhuang’s family. They punished Qiao Yu and now Qiao Yu was blaming her?
Qiao Mei shouted towards her surroundings, “I’ve already given Qiao Yu a bowl of beef sauce. If Second Grandpa doesn’t get to eat it, then you can’t blame me!”
Qiao Yu was scared to death when she heard that and quickly said, “No, no! I didn’t take it!”
She hurriedly looked around her and quickly got to her feet to slip away when she saw that there was no one around.
If her family heard that she took a bowl of beef sauce and did not see the sauce in their house, they would definitely beat her to death.
The thought of a scene like that made Qiao Yu run back quickly..
Soon, she disappeared from Qiao Mei’s sight.
Qiao Yu carried an empty bowl and slowly walked home, preparing to sneak in through the door. Upon entering, she did not expect to see Qiao Zhuang and his sons sitting at the table, smoking and waiting for her.
She was so frightened that she took a few steps back.
A few days ago, it was these few brothers who beat her up until she cried her heart out. It was as if they were venting all their anger on her alone.
Even though she was Qiao Zhuang’s youngest and only daughter that he kept with him.
But… Qiao Zhuang had never cared about her existence.
In fact, he treated his granddaughters better than her. Other than Qiao Zhuang’s wife, no one cared about her.
“Where’s the meat!”
Qiao Yu’s eldest brother, Qiao Fu, widened his eyes as he watched Qiao Yu walk in with an empty bowl.
The rest of them did not have nice expressions on their faces either.
Qiao Zhuang took out the pipe from his mouth and forcefully blew out a mouthful of smoke while looking at Qiao Yu. “She won’t give it to you?”
“Yes… She said that if I go over again, she’ll break my legs.” Qiao Yu stood at the door with the bowl in her hand and her legs trembling.
She had no idea what would await her next.
Qiao Zhuang’s wife wiped her hands and walked over from the kitchen. Seeing her only daughter like this, she could not help but speak up for her. “Seeing that Qiao Mei came a few days ago, it’s obvious that she’s not an easy person to get along with.”
“It’s only to be expected that she won’t give us food.”
Qiao Zhuang stood up and glared at her. “You’re just a woman, you have no right to speak. It’s only right and proper for me to educate my children!”
With that, he continued to glare at Qiao Yu.
