Chapter 359: Chapter 362 Who Did He Offend?_1
When Qiao Duo’er arrived at the Tan Family courtyard, Tan Zhengyuan was standing there with an extremely ugly look on his face.
"Did you see the girl’s mother?" Tan Zhengyuan asked with furrowed brows.
Qiao Duo’er shook her head and then walked past Tan Zhengyuan towards her own room.
This must be another one of Er Ya’s masterpieces, the whole family sneaking off to her maternal grandparents and leaving Tan Zhengyuan to fend for himself, how utterly satisfying!
"Damn it, are they trying to starve me to death on purpose? They don’t even know what hour it is to start cooking!"
Hearing this sentence, Qiao Duo’er was so angry she laughed. There really were all kinds of people in this world!
It was out of Hu’s Clan’s good nature to care for those two ungrateful wretches, but some people not only took it for granted but also acted as if it was their right.
Who did he think he was to have such a big face?
Forget it, she didn’t want to bother with Tan Zhengyuan. After all, one wouldn’t die from hunger for seven or eight days as long as there was water to drink.
Qiao Duo’er took the oil jar and was about to rest when Sun Erhu hastily pulled her aside.
"Sister-in-law, have you offended someone?" he asked urgently.
Qiao Duo’er was perplexed: "Who could I have offended? What’s wrong?"
"Do you remember I told you once that someone grabbed me and asked who you were? I saw her when I was coming back with nails. She was at the entrance of the village just now, do you think she’s here to find you?"
Sun Erhu was a bit panicked, the memory of being grabbed by that old woman still fresh in his mind.
He’d even had several nightmares over it.
Qiao Duo’er said indifferently, "The Xiao Family is the only one who might hate me, who else could there be? Don’t scare yourself."
Right, Madam Liang could barely count as one.
But they definitely weren’t the person Sun Erhu was talking about, because they hadn’t made enemies at that time.
Sun Erhu was still worried, but since he couldn’t articulate his concerns, the matter had to be set aside for now. n𝚘𝚟pub.𝚌o𝚖
About a quarter of an hour later, the people had already arrived at the door.
Immediately, Sun Erhu rushed over and whispered into Qiao Duo’er’s ear, "Sister-in-law, it’s them. Do you recognize them? I’m telling you, that woman is fierce!"
Qiao Duo’er felt these people looked a bit familiar, and upon taking a closer look, her heart thundered with rage.
This... these were her biological maternal relatives!
Her father Qiao Laixi, her mother from Liu’s family, her two younger sisters Qiao Hua’er, Qiao Mei’er, and the only little brother Qiao Jingu.
She had been in this world for so long and no one had mentioned her maternal family to her; she had even forgotten that she had a maternal family.
Unexpectedly, they had timed their appearance perfectly, coinciding with the beam-raising event, was this not a joke?
Sun Erhu had been waiting for a while without getting a response from Qiao Duo’er, so he had to ask again.
Qiao Duo’er replied in a low voice, "They are my maternal family."
Scratching the back of his head, Sun Erhu wondered if he had just spoken ill of his sister-in-law’s maternal family, would she beat him up for it?
Walking towards the door, Qiao Duo’er made Sun Erhu remember that these were Brother Hong’s parents-in-law, and he needed to quickly go inform him!
If he neglected them, his sister-in-law would definitely not be happy.
Just in case it turned into a fuss, Brother Hong could also offer some help.
"Miss, I’m looking for Tan Zhenghong," Liu’s family said with a grin, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth.
Qiao Duo’er was somewhat stunned. Could it be that Liu’s family didn’t recognize her?
Right, hadn’t Sun Erhu said that last time Liu’s family had grabbed him to ask who she was?
Now, Qiao Duo’er was completely sure. But should she cry or laugh about it?
Actually, it was normal. If they were people who cared about their daughter, how could they sell her to the Tan Family?
