Yunxi looked at Old Lady Zhao, who was protecting her, and her eyes were red as she held Old Lady Zhao’s hand.

“Grandma Zhao, waaaah~ please stop talking, or I’ll get beaten up again when I get back.”

When Old Lady Zhao heard this, her heart almost broke, and she quickly turned to look at Yun tide.

“Little girl, don’t cry. Your grandfather was a good man. He always helped our neighbors. If you have any grievances, just tell Grandma Zhao. Grandma Zhao will stand up for you.”

Yunxi pretended to wipe away tears with her hand, but the crisscrossing wounds on her wrist were revealed.

Old Mrs. Zhao was right in front of Yun tide, so she immediately noticed the scar on Yun tide’s wrist and promptly rolled up the little girl’s long sleeves.

When Old Lady Zhao saw that the little girl’s arms were covered in bruises, some of which had even scabbed over, she noticed that her arms were covered in bruises.

It looked like the fight had been going on for quite some time, and the wounds were all new ones on top of old ones, with countless scars of all sizes.

Upon seeing this, I gasped in shock and rolled up the other sleeve as well, only to find the same result.

They even rolled up Yunxi’s pants, but only up to her calves, leaving no part of them intact.

Old Mrs. Zhao burst into tears immediately.

People around had gathered around to see what was going on ever since Old Lady Zhao lifted Yunxi’s sleeve.

When they saw the numerous injuries on Yunxi’s body, they realized how vicious Liu Wei and Zhao Mei were.

No wonder the little girl always wears long sleeves and pants.

Old Mrs. Zhao hugged Yunxi tightly in her arms, saying, “My child, you’ve suffered so much! You’ve suffered so much!”

Old woman, I’m so sorry to your grandfather!

Old Mrs. Zhao always felt that no matter what, Yunxi was still Liu Wei’s own daughter, and even if her maternal grandfather and mother were gone, Liu Wei would not do anything to Yunxi.

His later wife, Zhao Mei, was also a decent woman.

At least he never beat or scolded Yunxi in front of others, but he always abused the girl in secret places, and he did it cruelly when no one could see him!

The neighbors all glared at Liu Wei and Zhao Mei with gritted teeth, especially the older ones.

Who among the older generation hasn’t received kindness from Yunxi’s maternal grandfather?

Yunxi’s maternal grandfather’s family used to be the most famous landlords in the surrounding area. They had countless gold and silver treasures, yet they always helped the poor villagers.

Life got a little better afterward, and Yunxi’s maternal grandfather secretly helped the neighbors; otherwise, many people would probably have starved to death in the early years.

As a result, Yunxi’s maternal grandfather passed away, and the little girl suffered so much injustice right under their noses, without them even knowing.

“Damn it, you people are absolutely wicked.”

“Liu Wei, is your heart made of stone? This child is your own daughter, how could you treat her like this?”

Liu Wei and Zhao Mei looked at their neighbors, their eyes filled with hatred, and panicked. The carefully constructed image they had cultivated in front of others had completely collapsed.

Liu Wei and Zhao Mei are both extremely proud people, and now their shameful deeds have been exposed in public, and they’ve even abused the little girl like this! They don’t know how to explain themselves.

Old Mrs. Zhao pointed at Liu Wei’s nose and started cursing, “You black-hearted, rotten-livered son of a bitch, you ingrate!”

Yunxi’s mother must have left you a lot of money, right? Yunxi’s mother used to have a job, and she was very frugal. Surely that money wasn’t enough to support a little girl like Yunxi.

Did Yunxi’s maternal grandfather leave you any money in private? We don’t know and dare not say anything.

But the house was truly intended for Yunxi, wasn’t it? You’re all living in Yunxi’s property now, and yet your whole family has lost all conscience! Look at the state you’ve left the little girl in!”

Old Mrs. Zhao was so angry that she trembled all over, wishing she could slap Zhao Mei’s face a few times.

Yunxi watched as Old Lady Zhao spitted everywhere, wishing she could rush forward and beat Liu Wei.

He tugged at Old Lady Zhao’s sleeve and whispered, “Grandma Zhao, it doesn’t hurt, it doesn’t hurt.”

He started to choke up as he spoke.

Old Mrs. Zhao hadn’t originally intended to hit Liu Wei, but now that she saw how pitiful the little girl was, she couldn’t care less and kicked Liu Wei hard.

Zhao Mei tried to pull Old Lady Zhao’s hair, but Old Lady Zhao stopped her with her hand.

Then he pinched Zhao Mei’s soft spot hard, yelling, “You vicious woman! I’ll teach you to bully a child…”

The neighbors all pretended to try to break up the fight, but they were all secretly taking sides.

Some people even pinched Zhao Mei hard, and it took her a long time to break free from them before she turned and ran home.

Yunxi was overjoyed.

After the chaotic fight ended, Old Zhao looked at Liu Wei and roared, “If Yunxi is ever laid a finger on by either of you two again, don’t blame me for reporting you and having you arrested!”

The neighbors who were watching the commotion shouted, “Arrest him! This kind of scum should be arrested!”

Upon seeing his neighbor’s reaction, Liu Wei quickly waved his hand, “I had no idea! It was all Zhao Mei! She takes care of the children at home every day.”

I guess Zhao Mei did this to Yunxi because the child was being naughty. I knew nothing about any of this.

Old Zhao couldn’t be too harsh, after all, Yunxi would still have to live in the Liu family in the future, so he just snorted coldly.

“Whether you really don’t know or you’re pretending not to know, this child is still your own daughter.”

If you don’t want to be talked about behind your back, treat your children well.

After saying that, he looked at Yunxi and said, “Little girl, if you suffer any hardships in the future, tell all of us neighbors!”

Your grandfather helped us a lot in the past, so please don’t feel like you’re a burden.

If your dad and stepmother hit you again, run out. Don’t just stand there like an idiot and let them beat and scold you.

Yunxi smiled gratefully at Old Man Zhao and nodded heavily.

“Grandpa Zhao, I understand.”

…

After everyone had left, Yunxi, with her unsteady gait, headed home.

Liu Wei and Zhao Mei were so angry that they felt their vision blurring.

Yunxi crossed her arms and slowly walked in.

“How about that? When it comes to acting, you guys are nowhere near as good as me!”

Zhao Mei gritted her teeth and said, “You little bitch! You were faking it all!”

As she spoke, Yunxi picked up a stool and looked at Zhao Mei, “Are you going to attack me? There aren’t any people leaving yet.”

Liu Wei yelled at Zhao Mei, “Stop! Aren’t you ashamed enough? Isn’t this house a mess enough?”

Liu Jiaojiao simply watched the drama unfold, completely oblivious to the chaos at home, as long as it didn’t affect her.

Looking at Yun tide’s smug expression, Liu Jiaojiao couldn’t help but laugh inwardly.

Go ahead and show off! But you won’t be able to keep it up for long.

When she gets caught, let’s see if she still has any shame!
