Xia YuanQiu’s cool eyes looked at Xia Tieniu. Shefaintly said, “Dabo never comes to my house. How would you know what I know andwhat I don’t know?”
The villagers outside heard and knew that YuanQiu’sheart held resentment. But come to think of it, the siblings lost their parentsthree years ago. One was eleven and one was seven. Even the funeral was held bythe village chief. Some kind-hearted villagers helped cook the meal afterwards.Her Dabo Xia Tieniu hid far away and didn’t do anything. The third brother XiaTiezhu was a shopkeeper in the county and said he had no time to come back.They didn’t even care about their brother’s funeral, how could they care aboutthe two orphans?
Xia Tieniu heard the discussions outside and hisface immediately changed. He stared hard at Xia YuanQiu and said unhappily, “Sinceyou know medicine, what are you waiting for? Waiting for your Tangge to die?”
YuanQiu wasn’t angry at Xia Tieniu’s berating. ButYuanHao’s small hands clenched into fists and he glared at Xia Tieniu withpursed lips.
