Chapter 988: Get Out!

Qin San Lang’s face turned completely dark. He quickly got up, went to the door of Yuan Xiaohu’s room, and saw Gu Jinli laughing joyfully inside. His face lit up with a smile again.

He was worried she might be angry, but she treated the matter as a joke.

Gu Jinli noticed his gaze, turned to look at him, winked at him, and said, "Your Little Sister Tian is here. Aren’t you going out to see her?"

Qin San Lang looked as if he was about to vomit: "I don’t know any Little Sister Tian."

The whole brother and sister thing was disgusting to death. Even if someone were to call him Brother Qin, that person could only be Xiao Yu.

Gu Jinli clicked her tongue: "So heartless. She ran to find you so eagerly, yet not only are you not touched, you’re also despising her, aren’t you worried about hurting Little Sister Tian’s feelings?"

After saying this pretentious line, Gu Jinli couldn’t help but laugh out loud herself.

Seeing her laugh again, Qin San Lang was thoroughly relieved. Xiao Yu trusted him very much and wouldn’t doubt him even if a woman rushed in to call him Brother Qin.

He felt warm and happy inside, but... why wasn’t Xiao Yu getting angry? Could it be that she didn’t care about him?

Qin San Lang’s heart ached, and he felt a bit dejected. How could he make Xiao Yu jealous?

Meanwhile, Gu Jinli was delighted to see him display such a youthful infatuation.

...

At the gate, Yuan Jiagui was quite angry and said to Tian Hui’er: "Tian Family girl, how can you, as a young lady, shout to an outside man calling him brother? What are your intentions? Have you no sense of face?"

Originally, he thought Tian Hui’er, being a young lady, would have more manners compared to Tian Xiwang and his kin, but unexpectedly, she too trampled over her own dignity.

Tian Hui’er had no mind to pay attention to Yuan Jiagui; she was anxiously waiting for Qin San Lang to come out.

However, seeing that he was not coming out for a long time, she could only continue to shout: "Brother Qin, it’s me, Little Sister Hui’er from the Tian Family, the same Hui’er you helped redeem and escorted all the way to He’an Prefecture!"

Hahaha~

"Sorry, I can’t hold it in anymore." Gu Jinli didn’t want to laugh, but what Tian Hui’er said was too funny, she couldn’t help it.

Qin San Lang was about to vomit, but seeing Gu Jinli laugh joyfully, his face brightened up a bit. He said, "Wait a moment."

Having said that, he immediately gathered his breath, and in a full and stern voice yelled one word: "Scram!"

The penetrating power of this word "scram" was too strong, and it frightened the color out of Tian Hui’er’s face.

This... could Brother Qin dislike her?

Moreover, she seemed to hear a burst of laughter, a crisp laughter, definitely from a girl.

Well, it turned out there’s a vixen inside seducing Brother Qin, no wonder Brother Qin told her to scram!

But would Tian Hui’er scram?

Of course not.

Tian Hui’er cried, tears falling down like raindrops. She looked quite lovely, and when she cried, she was very particular about the way she did it, not crying sloppily, but beautifully, a truly pitiful scene like the crying of Xi Shi, making one’s heart ache.

Yuan Jiagui was stunned, looking at Tian Hui’er, he asked: "Tian Family girl, why are you crying? Aren’t you doing this to create misunderstanding?"

This was exactly what Tian Hui’er wanted; she didn’t believe that if she stood there crying, Brother Qin wouldn’t come out to see her.

Before coming, Tian Hui’er had instructed Tian Xiwang and his folks to immediately call over the neighbors when she started crying, to let them discuss the matter.

People, in general, liked to help the weak. Seeing her cry, neighbors would certainly feel she had reason and help her deal with the vixen inside.

Tian Xiwang’s family had long been prepared, dividing into three groups, with Tian Xiwang and his son Tian Douwen going to call the neighbors.

Tian Xiwang’s wife rushed out, running to the Yuan family courtyard gate to ask: "Hui’er, what’s wrong with you? Why are you crying? Quickly tell your mother, and your mother will definitely get justice for you!"

Tian Hui’er didn’t answer, just cried while choking back and said in a grievance: "Mother, daughter, daughter is fine..."

"You silly girl, lying to your mother again. You must have been bullied by someone and didn’t want the family to worry, so you said that." Tian Xiwang’s wife looked at Yuan Jiagui and questioned: "Elder Yuan, you are so unjust. After all, we’re fellow villagers, Hui’er even calls you grandpa. She just wanted to meet her benefactor; how could you not let her in? You’ve even made her cry!"

Yuan Jiagui was furious, pointing at Tian Xiwang’s wife he said: "Don’t slander me. When have I bullied her?"

He sneered: "You just came out, how do you know if the one who came to my house is Tian Hui’er’s benefactor? I suppose your family wants to associate with a wealthy young man again."

Tian Xiwang’s family was crazy, in order to lead a good life, they disregarded all dignity, helping Tian Hui’er in doing this shameless business.

Earlier, during the conversation inside the house, Benefactor Qin had already mentioned that he was engaged, and Miss Gu was the fiancée he had yet to marry.

Looking at Benefactor Qin’s demeanor when he said this, he must have been very fond of Miss Gu, laughing three times while speaking, and he even glanced back at Miss Gu who was taking Xiaohe’s pulse in Xiaohe’s room.

Yuan En also ran over and said: "Aunt Tian, Sister Hui’er hasn’t even stepped into our house, how could my grandpa bully her? Moreover, Benefactor Brother doesn’t want to see her, he has already told her to scram."

This comment made Tian Xiwang’s wife blush for a moment, but she quickly stuck her neck out and yelled: "You little brat, what do you know? It’s adults talking, why are you interfering? Just scram."

Yuan En was scolded, puffing up his cheeks in anger, about to argue back, when Tian Xiwang and Tian Douwen brought the neighbors over, pointing to the Yuan family gate they said: "Fellow villagers, come over here and see, the Yuan family is bullying people, blocking our Hui’er from going in to thank her benefactor. Qin Benefactor has helped our Tian family, why does Yuan Jiagui have the right to stop our Hui’er from going in to thank her benefactor?"

Tian Douwen added: "We have no ill intentions, we just know the benefactor is here and wanted to thank him. We didn’t come empty handed, my sister even brought chicken congee for the Yuan family, what’s the problem with opening the door for us to go in?"

Upon hearing this, the neighbors thought it made sense. Some young lads who noticed Tian Hui’er was quite pretty immediately stepped forward to help, telling Yuan Jiagui: "Old Man Yuan, what’s the matter with you? That Benefactor Qin is not from your family, how can you stop Little Sister Tian from going in?"

This was West City, where many were poor, and quite a few lads hadn’t married. Seeing that Tian Hui’er was pretty, they all came to help, hoping to be the hero saving the beauty and win the lady in the end.

Just after the one lad finished speaking, another followed up: "Yeah, Old Man Yuan, how can you be so selfish?"

How does this make him selfish?

Can you use idioms properly!

And there was someone even harsher, shouting into the house: "That Benefactor Qin, things started because of you, you should come out quickly and stop hiding like a coward..."

He hadn’t said the word "turtle" yet when You An knocked him down with a move.

With a bang, the guy was kneed one meter off the ground by You An, then smashed down hard.

The young lad who got smashed was so hurt that his face twisted, lying on the ground unable to get up.

The neighbors who came to watch the commotion were shocked, all stepping back and keeping a distance from the Yuan family.
