How I Tamed My Wolfish Husband Back in 80s-Chapter 410 - 412: The Little White-Eyed Wolf_1

Li Qiao: "You think you’re so beautiful? I barely look after my own son, why would I take care of yours?"

Li Jinhua: "You’ve adopted two before, neither of which had any relation to you either."

"Is it the same? One was found at the door, and his family had one already, they couldn’t afford to keep him so they abandoned him. We thought Jiayue was deserted. You can’t even afford to raise one child? We haven’t wronged you. If you want to throw it away, there are plenty of orphanages in the city, go throw it there." Old Mrs. Qin said and walked into the house.

Mrs. Tao also looked down upon her.

She had never before encountered parents who casually suggested giving away their child.

After entering the room, Li Qiao lay down on the bed to rest.

The workers at the clothing workshop, many of them from the village, got a day off from Qin Jin after attending the full-month feast. It was pretty empty there now. She wanted to go and check it out, and after reminding Mrs. Tao to take good care of the child, she left.

Li Jinhua, with nowhere to go, stayed in Li Qiao’s room and quietly said she was hungry.

Li Qiao asked Mrs. Tao to go to the kitchen and cook a bowl of noodles for Li Jinhua.

Only the mother and son were left in the room, and Li Jinhua thought it was a good opportunity.

Just as she was pinching the medicine in her hand, the child beside Li Qiao suddenly cried out loud.

The voice was especially loud.

Li Qiao quickly picked up the child, gently patted the baby’s back to comfort him, and Mrs. Tao appeared at the door: "What happened?"

"He suddenly started crying, it gave me a fright," Li Qiao said. "It was the same last night, crying without reason, and he’s got such a loud voice."

Mrs. Tao: "It’s good for a boy to have a loud voice. There have been too many people coming to the house these past days, the child might have gotten scared."

Li Qiao guessed that was probably the case.

But the child kept crying, and she couldn’t soothe him, growing anxious. She called Mrs. Tao back: "Mrs. Tao, you come hold him while I cook the noodles."

Mrs. Tao: "That won’t do, your partner said, don’t let you touch anything in the kitchen. He also doesn’t allow others to enter the kitchen." She added the latter part, which Qin Jin had told her on her second day at work. He said that with people coming and going, if someone entered the kitchen at will, they would feel insecure about their food.

Li Qiao had no choice but to hold the child herself.

She sang nursery rhymes to the baby.

"Calabash Brothers, calabash brothers, seven flowers on a single vine....."

Li Jinhua: "That’s not a nursery rhyme from here, is it?"

Li Qiao gave her a look, thinking to herself, don’t you already know?

After singing a couple of lines, the baby covered his ears, showing impatience again.

Li Qiao said both amused and annoyed: "Don’t you like it?" If you don’t like nursery rhymes, what do you like? She remembered that in her dream, the baby talked about sorting red threads for the matchmaker, so she had a story: "Once upon a time, on a mountain, there was a Taoist temple, and inside the temple was the Matchmaker Temple, where there enshrined a kind and benevolent......."

The child really calmed down.

After Li Qiao finished the story, Mrs. Tao also finished cooking the noodles.

Li Jinhua was extremely hungry; she took the chopsticks and began to eat.

Li Qiao noticed some white powder on Li Jinhua’s fingernails and immediately thought of the incident where someone poisoned Feng Erguanggun. Her eyes unconsciously shifted toward Li Jinhua’s pants pocket. Just at that moment, Qin Jin returned from outside. He saw Li Jinhua’s disgusted look and stealthily glared at the one holding Qin Baby.

Li Jinhua caught a glimpse of Qin Jin.

She couldn’t help feeling dejected, as her plan for the day was going to fall through again.

The baby felt safe with Qin Jin, and having cried, was also tired.

He leaned into his arms, closed his eyes, and fell asleep.

Li Qiao said, "He just gave me quite the trouble, and now you’re back, he falls asleep. Seems he’s closer to you than to me."

As the sound faded, the child rolled his eyes.

Qin Jin cursed: "Little ingrate, not even avoiding to tell me he’s closer to you."

Li Qiao joked: "He looks like you, but his heart leans towards me, that’s pretty fair."

Qin Jin didn’t object, and Li Qiao pulled him outside, whispering to him about the white powder on Li Jinhua’s fingernails: "I don’t know if she wants to harm me with it."

Qin Jin’s thoughts stirred, recalling the incident where Li Jinhua had poisoned Li Jianguo, and thinking about these past days when Li Jinhua always came here when he wasn’t around, he had an idea. But on the surface, he said: "She wouldn’t dare."

He instructed Mrs. Tao to keep a close eye on the child and then left again.

Not long after, Li Shengcai arrived.

He carried the air of an elder and criticized Li Qiao at home for the way Qin Jin had neglected her today.

Li Qiao remained silent.

Feeling awkward, Li Shengcai sat in the courtyard, "This little yard is really nice. When can you and Jin build me one just like this back in our hometown?" He lowered his demands towards Li Qiao.

Li Qiao still did not respond.

Li Shengcai stopped talking as well, and asked Li Jinhua, "Where did you run off to last night?"

Li Jinhua: "I got lost, spent the night outside. You didn’t even think to look for me."

"Why the hell did you run off?" Bored and intending to leave, Li Shengcai called for Li Jinhua. Now Li Jinhua could no longer find an excuse to stay, she picked up the child and left with Li Shengcai.

Halfway through, they were stopped by a group of people.

Li Shengcai thought it was a robbery, and terrified, he pleaded for his life.

But the group rushed at Li Jinhua, snatched the child from her hands, and handed it to Li Shengcai.

Confused, Li Shengcai held the child and watched them search through her pockets, finding a bag of powder and shoving it all into her mouth.

Li Jinhua screamed for help in desperation, but after a few cries, she felt weak in her limbs and fainted.

Li Shengcai, shocked, also screamed for help.

The group of young men quickly ran off.

...

When Li Jinhua awoke again, it was the next day, and she was on a train.

The child was being held by Li Jiaojiao.

Li Jiaojiao said, "You’re awake, huh? Dad said some people forced some kind of medicine on you from your pocket and you passed out. The doctor said it was Poppy Anesthetic, which could damage your brain. Where did you get that stuff? Even the police were involved. Luckily, Jin managed to smooth things over, otherwise you’d be in jail. Jin made me promise to tell you, absolutely do not carry this stuff again, otherwise if you get caught again, jail would be the least of your worries."

Li Jinhua felt dazed, but when she heard Qin Jin’s name, she broke out in a cold sweat.

Qin Jin was warning her, a warning that was after her life. freёwebnoѵel.com

Those people must have been hired by him.

How had Qin Jin found out she had the drug?

Li Jiaojiao continued, "Also, about the child, he had a fever last night. Fortunately, the female doctor that Qiaoqiao knows is skilled, and she cured him. She said your body is severely depleted, you need to rest properly. You should stop wandering around with the child. I didn’t even leave the house once when I was in my confinement period, how could you withstand running around everywhere?"

She decided she wouldn’t bring Dad and Li Jinhua to see Qiaoqiao again.

This time, Qiaoqiao had completely distanced herself from her.

She was just close to her eldest sister.

And had nagged at her about this for two days.

The in-laws were also blaming her, saying if they had known Qiaoqiao had such a deep conflict with her maternal home, they would never have allowed her to invite Li Shengcai.

Li Jiaojiao talked as she passed the child back to Li Jinhua.

Li Jinhua felt an extreme dizziness. That bag of drugs could knock out two bulls, and she had consumed it all herself, how could it not damage her brain? Damn Qin Jin was too cruel. She needed to return home and ask her uncle if there were any long-term effects.

She reached out to take the child.

She realized she couldn’t carry him, the baby nearly slipped out of her weak grasp.

Li Jiaojiao, with quick reflexes, caught him again, "What’s wrong with you?"

"My hands have no strength at all." Li Jinhua’s face was pale, her expression terrified. She tried to stand up and discovered her legs were weak as well: "What do I do, I have no strength, not at all."

Li Jiaojiao:"Don’t panic, it might be that the drug’s effects haven’t worn off yet."

Li Jinhua rested for half the day but still couldn’t hold the child.

She was like Feng Erguanggun, gasping for breath even holding a pot shovel.

Her heart was pounding as if it wanted to leap out of her throat.

"It must have been Qin Jin who did this to me."

Li Jiaojiao’s parents-in-law could not bear to listen any longer.

"Qin Jin bought you a ticket, advanced medical expenses, and spoke on your behalf. How can you say such things?" No wonder Qiaoqiao isn’t close with this sister, she is simply ungrateful!
