Embarrassed to See Big Brother

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

When Zhong Yong saw Xiaoying lying on the ground with her eyes closed, he was so angry that his eyes widened. He threw the wild wolf on his shoulder at the two men and chased after them with his iron hammer.

The wild wolf knocked down the brat who was running behind him. When he wanted to get up and run again, Zhong Yong had already caught up to him. He smashed the back of his head with a hammer, directly smashing it into pieces.

The one who was running in front turned around and saw the scene of his partner’s head being split open. He was so scared that his legs went soft.

In his fear, he ran into a tree in a panic. He wanted to continue running, but Zhong Yong caught his collar. Then, he sadly felt his body lifted into the air and thrown to the ground. At that time, his spine was broken, and he lay on the ground screaming in pain, unable to move.

Zhong Yong’s face darkened as he walked over and raised the iron hammer to smash it down on the boy’s head. The boy’s face was smashed into his skull and smashed to pieces.

After killing two people in a row, Zhong Yong returned to Xiaoying’s side with bloodshot eyes. He knelt on the ground and started crying at the top of his lungs.

” Xiaoying, second brother has caused you to die. Second brother is too embarrassed to see big brother; I… I don’t want to live anymore.”

Zhong Yong’s face was covered in snot and tears. His big brother had taken in the mother and son, but he had failed to protect Xiaoying. He was filled with self-blame as he took the iron hammer, wanting to smash his head.

Just as Zhong Yong was about to make his move, Ji Xiaoying was woken up by Zhong Yong’s cries. Her head was still dizzy, and her eyes were all blurry as she weakly tugged at Zhong Yong’s sleeve.

“I’m not dead.”

“You didn’t die? My sister isn’t dead; that’s great; I don’t have to die either.”

Zhong Yong laughed and cried at the same time. The silly words he said made Ji Xiaoying not know whether to laugh or cry.

“Sister Shuang’er,”

When Ji Xiaoying woke up, she saw Li Shuang’er unconscious with blood all over her mouth. She was so scared that she quickly crawled over to call her. Xiaoying was so frightened that she cried. She hugged Li Shuang’er and shook her.

“Sister Shuang’er, wake up! Don’t scare me.”

“I’m fine. I’m just dizzy. Stop shaking.”

Li Shuang’er’s eyes were still closed, and she called out weakly. Ji Xiaoying and the other ladies cried tears of joy. It was great that she was not dead.

Zhong Yong had made a mistake and taken Li Shuang’er down the mountain, so it was his responsibility. Li Shuang’er had been beaten up badly, and her head was spinning. She vomited when standing up, so she couldn’t walk.

Zhong Yong carried Li Shuang’er on his back and tied the wild wolf to his neck with a vine. He held a hammer in one hand, not throwing anything at all.

Fortunately, Li Shuang’er was still in a daze. Otherwise, she would have been scared to death by the wild Wolf’s corpse right in front of her.

Although Ji Xiaoying was also feeling a little dizzy and nauseous, she could still walk with the help of the ladies. She was willing to sacrifice her life for the money and only agreed to leave the mountain after carrying the basket full of mulberry leaves.

Qiu Yongkang was resting on the mountain. He kept glancing at the mountain, feeling uneasy. He regretted allowing them to go into the mountain with Xiaoying.

Although he had sent Zhong Yong to protect them, Zhong Yong was simple-minded and did not know if he could protect them well.

As he was thinking about this, he saw Zhong Yong carrying a girl on his back and a wolf in his arms. Behind him were a few girls with messy hair and torn clothes. Qiu Yongkang’s heart trembled, and he quickly walked up to them.

Qiu Yongkang walked up to Zhong Yong and saw that it was Li Shuang’er on his back. Then, he saw half of Xiaoying’s face was blue, and one of her eyes was so swollen that she couldn’t even open it. She could only close one eye and look at him. Qiu Yongkang quickly asked them,

“What happened?”

“Two men on the mountain wanted to catch us.”

Wang Lamei said hurriedly. She had been scared out of her wits and was still trembling.

When Li Shuang’er’s mother saw her daughter’s mouth full of blood, she wondered how badly injured Zhong Yong must have been while carrying her. She ran over and hugged the girl while crying,

“Shuang’er, Shuang’er, don’t scare your mother.”

“Mother, I’m fine.”

Li Shuang’er shook her head. As soon as she finished speaking, she spat out all the lotus root starch she had taken. There was blood in her mouth. When she vomited, she saw the bright red blood. Li Shuang’er’s mother was frightened. Her hands and feet went soft, and her voice trembled.

“Aiya, Aiya, how serious are your injuries? Why did you vomit blood? ”

“That’s the thief’s blood.”

Li Shuang’er tried to comfort her mother. She bit the thief’s ear, and her mouth was full of blood. Thinking about it, she vomited in disgust.

Zhong Yong was still carrying her on his back. Li Shuang’er vomited all over his body. Zhong Yong looked at Li Shuang’er’s mother pitifully, then opened his mouth and vomited all over his body.

Fortunately, the wild wolf hanging in front of his chest carried everything.

“Quick, put Shuang’er down.”

Seeing that Zhong Yong had vomited, Li Shuang’er’s mother was afraid he would throw Li Shuang’er on the ground, so she quickly called Li Daniu to help her daughter.

If an unmarried young lady had skin-to-skin contact with a man, her future husband’s family would despise her.

Qiu Yue sat in the car and looked at the girls’ sorry state. She was glad that she did not follow them.

“Yong’er?”

Madam Li had just taken her last day’s medicine, and her vision had recovered. She could already see clearly and first wanted to see her son. She shouted Zhong Yong’s name as she stumbled over.

After being blind for more than ten years, she was still unaccustomed to suddenly seeing the light again.

“Mother,”

Zhong Yong feared dirtying his mother’s clothes, so he stepped back to avoid his mother’s embrace.

“I’m not clean.”

“Mother doesn’t mind, mother doesn’t mind.”

After Madam Li saw her son’s face clearly, tears burst out from her eyes. She hurriedly wiped them away with her sleeve, not wanting her vision to be blurred by tears.

Zhong Yong removed the wild wolf hanging around his neck and threw it on the ground. He smiled at his mother naively.

“Mother, I’ll find you some edible wolf meat.”

“My Yong’er is amazing.”

Madam Li wiped away the tears that seemed never to be wiped clean and praised her son with a smile.

Her son looked 70% like brother Feng and was taller and more muscular than brother Feng. It was all her fault. She didn’t take good care of Yong’er when she ran away, causing him to be so frightened that he had a fever. That was why he became less intelligent.

“Mother, you can see me?”

Zhong Yong stretched out his fan-sized hand and waved it before his mother’s eyes. He looked at his mother nervously and uneasily. His uncle had spent a lot of money to treat his mother’s eyes, but they had not been cured.

“Yes, mother can see my Yong’er.”

Madam Li smiled and nodded with tears in her eyes.

“Godmother, don’t cry. You’ll hurt your eyes if you keep crying.”

Ji Xiaoying endured her dizziness and came over to support consort Li. She was afraid that sister Su Qing had worked so hard to cure her godmother’s eyes, and she was worried that Madam Li would cry and lose her sight again.

After hearing Xiaoying’s words, Madam Li was so scared that she didn’t dare to cry anymore and quickly wiped her tears.

Jiang Laoqi came over to deal with the wild wolf that had been smashed and vomited after its death. He didn’t want the wolf skin anymore. It was useless to keep it if no one collected it.

Jiang Laoqi went over, picked up the wolf, hung it on a tree, and began to skin it.

Aunt Qiu and the others quickly boiled water to prepare the wild wolf meat. Wolf meat was not tasty as it was thick and smelled fishy. However, even rats, including wolf meat, could be eaten when hungry.

No one had any confidence in Aunt Qiu’s cooking. If only Su Qing were here, she could make the wolf meat as delicious as ever.

After skinning the wolf, Jiang Laoqi opened its belly to take out the water when he saw dust flying toward the official road..
