Chapter 156 The Cruel Stepmother

Pei quickly fried the loach and called Ali and the others to eat it.

Ali looked at the dark loach in front of her and was a little afraid to reach out. She asked suspiciously: "Mom, can this really taste delicious?"

Pei was afraid that they would not dare to eat, so he made a sample first.

With a smile, he picked up a piece with chopsticks and put it in his mouth, "It's delicious! You don't know that when my mother was young, my family was poor. My uncle and I went to the river to catch loaches and your grandma made it for us to eat. At that time, we didn't have fried food like this."

Ali also reached out to take a piece of it and it tasted fresh and crispy, and the taste was surprisingly good.

"It's delicious, I'll catch it tomorrow."

While they were having lunch, a noise broke out outside.

Ali lay curiously at the door and looked at it, and found a teenage girl dragged forward by her family.

The little girl didn't want to cry and struggled backwards.

No one came forward to persuade him, and they all surrounded him and watched.

"Mom, what are they doing? Why do they take that young lady away? Are they going to sell it?"

Pei also walked over and looked at it and sighed, "Oh! The girl is so old, probably because she talks about her husband's family!"

"Is it okay if I don't want to marry?"

"This world is difficult for women. Sister Ruan, a lady from a family, has not escaped. She was not willing to marry into the Cheng Mansion at the beginning, let alone these poor families."

"Auntie, our father won't be like this in the future!" Xiaohua asked curiously from the side.

"How could it be that stupid girl? If he dares to do this, I will dare to deal with him. You remember our family. We will not interfere too much in the marriage between girls and kids, but it depends on how the other person is."

Ali and the others nodded, probably because they were still young and didn't understand much.

This is someone else's private matter, they can't help but sit back and have a meal.

Lin Changlu changed the topic and said to Ali: "Don't Lili want to grow herbs? I have agreed with everyone today that the ground on the mountain behind has left you two large pieces of herbs to grow."

"Wow, thank you dad, I'll go to the mountain to find some seeds to plant."

Pei suddenly thought of something, "Lili, you don't have to look for it yourself. You forgot that your sister Wu Lan and the others often pick herbs, so there must be seeds."

"Yes, then we can buy seeds from Sister Wu Lan."

"When we go back in two days, we pass by and go to see them."

Just as they had just finished their meal.

Liu Tiezhi hurriedly knocked on the gate of the yard.

"Boss, Madam, Chen's girl hit the wall."

Pei frowned and asked anxiously: "It's not the girl who was dragged away just now, is it?"

"It's her. Everyone Chen found an elderly widower for her. The girl from the Chen family was unwilling to do so. Before she left the farm, she hit the stone on the roadside."

"How could she marry a widower? That girl is not old! Her parents are willing to give up?"

"Oh! It's not Chen's stepmother."

Pei and the others immediately understood that usually there would be stepmothers with stepmothers. Although there were also good stepmothers, there were not many such situations in this place.

"How are you now?"

Liu Tiezhi immediately replied: "The girl from the Chen family has shed a lot of blood and is already unconscious. Her stepmother is unwilling to ask her to see a doctor. I wonder if the little boss knows medical skills. Can you please see her? That girl is a pitiful person."

Of course Ali was willing to do so, and he would follow him with a small bag.

Pei immediately stopped Ali, turned to Liu Tiezhi and said, "You might as well bring that girl here as soon as possible! She has such a powerful mother, and I am afraid that I will cause trouble if I save people at that time."

They dare not let Ali take risks. She is young and doesn't understand people's hearts are sinister. As parents, they want to reduce risks for her.

When Liu Tiezhi heard this, he felt that she was right and immediately turned around and went out.

Soon he hugged Chen Erya and came back, followed by several men and women.

The little girl was skinny and bone-skinned, and her clothes were almost filled with patches. She hit a large piece of her forehead, and her skin was covered in blood, looking very pitiful.

Pei looked heartbroken and quickly asked him to put Chen Erya on the soft collapse of the room next to the hall, leaving only Ali to lock the others outside the door.

She didn't want others to influence her A-Car to save people.

Ali went up to show her wounds and touched her pulse, but fortunately she was angry.

She took out a bottle of pills from her little bag, poured out one from it and fed it to her.

Then he treated her for the wound on her forehead.

After finishing all this, Chen Erya slowly woke up and found that the place she was very unfamiliar, so she immediately sat up in panic.

Because she lost too much blood, her head was dizzy and made her fall down again.

Seeing that she woke up, Pei sat next to her and wiped the blood on her face with a towel thrown by warm water.

"Girl, don't be stupid again in the future. Nothing is as important as your life."

The fallen Chen Erya burst into tears when she heard her concern words.

She had met the Pei family and thought they were very kind, unlike the arrogant expressions of the landlords in the past.

So Pei's gentle words seemed to her like a life-saving straw.

"Madam, I don't want to marry someone as old as my father, but my father insists on me marrying. I might as well die. Maybe I can see my own mother, I miss my mother so much."

"Poor child!"

Then Pei asked her, "What will you do?"

Chen Erya was a little puzzled why she asked this, but she still answered obediently, "I can do housework, wash clothes, cook, split firewood, and I also take care of my younger brother at home."

When Pei heard that she could take care of her children, she immediately came up with a good idea.

"To be honest, I'm just looking for someone to take care of the child. I'm looking at the candidates these two days. Your parents sell you to a widower probably for money. I'll buy you at that time. Would you like to follow us?"

When Chen Erya heard this, she immediately slid to the ground and kowtowed to Pei and Ali regardless of the injuries on her head.

"If the wife is willing to take Erya in, Erya swore that she will take good care of the ladies, let me do whatever I can, and I will be willing to die. If I can't do it, it will be thunder!"

Pei quickly helped her up.

"You girl is so excited. We finally saved you back. Do you have to cherish it? Since you agree to wait a moment, you will pretend to be unconscious, and the others will look at me."

Chen Erya nodded vigorously, "I understand, madam."

Then Pei asked her to continue lying on the soft collapse, and after a few words to Ali, she went to open the door.

Everyone outside gathered.

"Madam, Erya is fine! If we wake up, we will continue to rush, so we won't bother you."
