On this day, Qiao Zuwang was basking in the sun in the yard of his home after lunch. His youngest son Qiao Qiqi wanted to get close to him, but he was pushed aside by him in a nonchalant manner. For the children in the family, he had never been very fond of him.

I have never cared about it, let alone taking care of children.

Unknowingly, Qiao Zuwang squinted and fell asleep. When he woke up, Qiao Sanli and Qiao Simei had already returned from school.

"dad."

"dad."

Qiao Sanli and Qiao Simei said hello timidly, with no intention of getting close to Qiao Zuwang. Although they were still young, after so many years of getting along, they felt that their father did not like them.

Qiao Zuwang just raised his eyelids, hummed, and lowered his head listlessly.

Just when Qiao Zuwang was about to fall asleep, the courtyard door was suddenly pushed open, and a middle-aged man with a wretched appearance walked in.

"Old Li, why are you here?" Qiao Zuwang saw Li Heman standing up on crutches, looking closer than seeing his son or daughter.

Li Heman smiled with his hands behind his back: "I have an early shift today, so I came to see you."

"Sanli, go get your Uncle Li a glass of water."

"Alas." Qiao Sanli responded obediently, went back to the room, brought a glass of water and handed it to Li Heman.

Li Heman suddenly discovered that the little girl she once was had become slim and graceful, and there was a hint of strange color in his eyes.

"Uncle Li, drink some water." Qiao Sanli didn't notice the abnormality in Li Heman's eyes, and when she saw that he didn't take the tea cup, she gave a special reminder.

Li Heman then drank the tea in a disguised manner.

Qiao Zuwang didn't know what Li Heman's plan was, and he was very touched that he came to see him.

"Well, Lao Li, if you don't say that a friend in need is a friend indeed, look at those guys, how did I, Lao Qiao, treat them before. Ever since I became lame, they have never looked at me seriously."

Li Heman comforted Qiao Zuwang with a few words, but his eyes kept wandering around Qiao Sanli, and suddenly an evil thought came to his mind.

"By the way, Lao Qiao, I have something to do tonight. Lao Liu and the others are missing one of them. Why don't you go and help me?"

When Qiao Zuwang heard that there was a mahjong game, he picked up his crutch and started to go out.

Qiao Sanli couldn't help but remind: "Dad, you haven't had dinner yet."

"You guys eat, I won't eat at home today." Qiao Zuwang just stole two dollars from Wei Shuying's pocket last night, which is enough for one night. Huh, if you don't give him the money, he won't be able to take it himself.

Li Heman looked at the back of Qiao Zuwang running away on a crutch, secretly relieved, and looked at Qiao Sanli with bolder eyes.

Of course, before that, he still had to deal with Qiao Simei and that little slug Qiao Qiqi.

"Simei, I have two cents here. You can take Qiqi to buy some delicious food."

Qiao Simei had no doubt that he was there. After taking the money, she immediately took Qiao Qiqi to the streets.

Qiao Sanli did not realize that the danger was coming, and Li Heman was approaching step by step, when suddenly the courtyard door was pushed open by a strong force.

Li Heman was startled and quickly stepped aside. When Qiao Sanli turned around, she found that it was Qin Hao and her eldest brother Qiao Yicheng, looking at them with doubts on their faces.

"Brother, Brother Hao, why did you come back so early today? Shouldn't there be another class?"

Qiao Yicheng was so tired that he was out of breath. He leaned against the wall with his knees and said to Qin Hao: "Can you tell me what happened now?"

Qin Hao did not answer Qiao Yicheng's doubts, but walked slowly to Qiao Sanli.

"Why are you alone at home?"

Qiao Sanli explained the situation. Qiao Yicheng frowned slightly. In his impression, Li Heman was not a generous person. Why did he suddenly give his sister money to buy snacks on a whim today?

Li Heman said with a smile: "I have been living in the street for many years. I happened to be in a good mood today and saw that my children were quite pitiful, so I gave them 20 cents to treat them to something delicious."

"Oh, that's right." Qin Hao sneered.

"Yes, yes, what, I have something to do at home, so I'm going back first, you don't have to send me away." Li He felt guilty and casually found an excuse and left.

Qiao Yicheng looked at Li Heman's leaving figures suspiciously. Qin Hao winked at him and said to Qiao Sanli.

"Your brother and I have something to do, please stay at home and don't run around."

Qiao Sanli nodded obediently: "Yes."

After Qin Hao and Qiao Yicheng left, Qiao Sanli frowned slightly: "Why is everyone acting weird today?"

After going out, Qiao Yicheng grabbed Qin Hao and asked with a serious face: "Tell me, what's going on."

"Didn't you notice that when we arrived, there was no one else at home except Li Heman and Sanli?"

Qin Hao's words made Qiao Yicheng's eyes widen, and he almost blurted out: "It's impossible, right? How old is Sanli?"

"Do you know the difference between humans and animals?"

"What's the difference?"

"Beasts will always be beasts, but when humans are alive, they are not humans."

Qiao Yicheng was struggling. He believed that Qin Hao would not lie to him, especially about this matter. However, unless he saw this kind of thing with his own eyes, it was difficult to conclude that Li Heman would really do such a thing.

"Follow me." Qin Hao waved to Qiao Yicheng without giving him a chance to continue to struggle.

Following Qin Hao through the streets and alleys, going deeper and deeper, Qiao Yicheng suddenly saw the sneaky figures of Li Heman at an intersection.

Li Heman looked around for a while, then walked to an earthen house and knocked lightly on the door.

Qiao Yicheng stuck out half of his head and stared at the door.

I saw a chubby woman opening the door, putting her hand directly on Li Heman's chest, and said angrily: "You still know how to come."

"Look at what you said. I'm busy. I'll come to you as soon as I have time."

"Damn it, don't do this. Did you bring the money?"

"Don't worry, I'll take care of you. I can't do without you."

"It's like I didn't take good care of you."

Listening to the unsightly conversation between the two, Qiao Yicheng broke into cold sweat on his forehead. He couldn't imagine what kind of cruel things Li Heman would have done to Sanli if he and Qin Hao hadn't suddenly gone home just now.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! On the way back, Qiao Yicheng suddenly turned around, walked a few steps and was stopped by Qin Hao.

"Are you going to call the police?"

Qiao Yicheng gritted his teeth and said, "You can't take advantage of this bastard!"

Qin Hao shook his head gently: "It's useless. We arrived in time. Li Heman was driven away before he did anything. If you go and report him now, he is just a PC at most and will be released soon."

.”

"Then we can't just let it go, right?" Qiao Yicheng's eyes turned red.

"Of course, we can only catch thieves in a thousand days but not prevent them in a thousand days. We can't watch Sanli at home every day, but we have to plan this matter carefully. Impulsiveness can't solve any problems."

After Qiao Yicheng heard this, he gradually calmed down.

"Although Sanli is usually obedient and obedient, she is actually very sensitive on the inside. Be careful not to let her see it when you go back."

On the way back, Qin Hao patted Qiao Yicheng on the shoulder and warned him.

Qiao Yicheng nodded: "Yes."

However, when he returned home, Qiao Yicheng saw Qiao Simei and Qiao Qiqi happily eating glutinous rice candies. He suddenly became angry and stepped forward to sweep the remaining glutinous rice candies to the floor.

"Eat, eat, eat, you know how to eat. Don't I usually give you pocket money? Don't I take you to eat delicious food? It's so delicious!"

It was the first time for Qiao Simei and Qiao Qiqi to see their eldest brother get so angry, and they were so frightened that they burst into tears.

Qiao Sanli looked confused: "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

Qiao Yicheng opened his mouth, but when he thought of Qin Hao's instructions, he closed his mouth.

Qiao Sanli coaxed Simei and Qiqi, then picked up the glutinous rice candies one by one from the ground and blew them clean, then brought them to Qiao Yicheng and said with a sweet smile.

"Brother, this is all reserved for you and second brother."

Qiao Yicheng looked at the glutinous rice candy, and then at Sanli's pretty and well-behaved face, and could only ruthlessly grab the glutinous rice candy and throw it far outside the hospital.

"In the future, you are not allowed to eat food given by outsiders. If you are greedy, go to Big Brother. Big Brother is rich."

Qiao Simei and Qiao Qiqi looked towards the direction where the glutinous rice candies were scattered with tears in their eyes, not daring to say a word, while Qiao Sanli frowned.

In the evening, when Wei Shuying returned home, she noticed something was wrong with the atmosphere at home, but Qiao Simei and the others were still young and didn't know what to ask. Qiao Yicheng refused to say anything, so she did not continue to ask questions, but called Qiao Erqiang who had just finished school.

in front of.

"Tell me, what have you been doing lately!"

Qiao Erqiang shrank his neck: "Mom, I'm sorry, I didn't do well in the math test."

"And." Wei Shuying said with a straight face.

Qiao Erqiang thought hard for a long time, with a confused look on his face: "Mom, I really have nothing to do."

"How dare you lie!" Wei Shuying slapped the table: "Tell me, did you steal money from your classmates?"

Qiao Erqiang waved his hands repeatedly: "Mom, I didn't steal any money."

"Then tell me, what is this striped T-shirt about? I've already asked about it. A T-shirt like this costs more than ten yuan, which is my ten days' salary. Where did you get the money to buy it?" Wei Shuying said.

He stood up and picked up the bamboo stick.
