Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable Chapter 5: The Sin of Gender 5
At first, people only ate so corpses, but as the food shortage increased, people began to be dissatisfied with eating the dead. The stronger ones started catching people who were on the brink of starvation to eat, and so families even chose to exchange children for food!
At that ti, the Qin Family, due to an accident, still had so food left at ho. However, the Qin Family was afraid that starving people in the village would find out and co to steal their food!
To protect themselves, the Qin Family ca up with a viciously cruel sche: exchange the useless girl in their family, considered a financial burden, with another family's child, to avoid the village people discovering their surplus food!
And Qin Laoer! Qin Shuangshuang's biological father! Under the subtle hints from Mr. Qin, Qin the Third, and Little Chen, Mrs. Fang, in an effort to show his filial piety and please Old Chen and Mr. Chen, took Qin Shuangshuang out voluntarily, even when the family was nowhere near starving!
At that ti, Qin Shuangshuang had no idea that when she left ho, following a father who rare showed her a kind face, saying he wanted to take her out to find food, she was in fact stepping into hell!
Her father had actually exchanged her with another family's child by his own hands! Qin Shuangshuang can never forget the fear and despair of almost being slaughtered and cooked like livestock!
This lifeti, seeing Qin Laoer again, Qin Shuangshuang's heart felt soaked in poison, twisting with hatred at every mont. If she hadn't been gently cared for and lovingly nurtured by Mrs. Bai, facing Qin Laoer every day might have driven Qin Shuangshuang mad with resentnt!
Already filled with resentnt towards Qin Laoer, she now saw him hit her mother, whom she had painstakingly recovered and cherished. Qin Shuangshuang felt her mind buzz; she lost all reason in an instant! Without thinking, she instinctively used all her strength to kick Qin Laoer's hand!
The innate giant strength given to Qin Shuangshuang by that woman was indeed extraordinary. The force of Qin Shuangshuang's kick was trendous, directly sending Qin Laoer, who outweighed Old Chen by much, flying and coincidentally smashing into Qin the Third, who had been stirring trouble all along!
Qin Laoer and Qin the Third fell to the ground together. Coincidentally, there was a small stool on the ground, the one Old Chen had been sitting on, and Qin the Third's lower back landed precisely on the stool!
If it were an ordinary day, this wouldn't be a big deal, but Qin the Third happened to have the heavy weight of Qin Laoer on top of him, combined with the force from Qin Shuangshuang's kick. Suddenly, there was a cracking sound, and Qin the Third was paralyzed, unable to move, followed by two voices wailing in altered tones from both Qin the Third and Qin Laoer!
Qin Laoer's hand, like Old Chen's, hung twisted at his side, apparently broken similarly to Old Chen's predicant!
Everyone was stunned by the sudden turn of events. The room, originally filled with Old Chen's weak wails, turned into a trio, no, a quartet, including Qin Shuangshuang, who resud wailing desperately after kicking them!
Everyone was montarily shocked by the sudden scene, then buzzed! The onlookers outside started whispering again. This ti, so people were interested in the strength Qin Shuangshuang exhibited, while others were intrigued by the prior events.
"One kick could cause this? This child must have innate great strength! I had heard of children like this before, but seeing it firsthand today is an eye-opener!"
"With such strength, it would be better if it were a boy. I've been to the county before and heard that the current General Qi, rose from a poor family, and was ennobled as a great general because of his innate divine strength and ritorious military service. If this girl weren't a girl, maybe she could join the army and beco so general, but alas, she is a girl!"
"Having strength as a girl is good too. At least it won't be hard for her to work in the future, and she won't be bullied!"
These were people interested in Qin Shuangshuang's innate giant strength. They chatted eagerly, discussing which child they had heard of with great strength, excellent mory, and early developnt, their conversations becoming heated.
"I initially thought Mrs. Bai was lying, but now it seems she was telling the truth. Old Chen went to hit Mrs. Bai, but Mrs. Bai, with her back to Old Chen and unaware, inadvertently slapped the child second mother was carrying. The child was likely startled, causing the struggle that resulted in Old Chen's hand being broken!"
"That must be it. I was saying that Mrs. Bai, as gentle as dough, could not have done such an outrageous thing. Yet her mother-in-law, Old Chen, is known for being sly and an, always picking on the honest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Bai!"
"Look at the child's face, so swollen it's unrecognizable. Old Chen hit her so hard. It's her own doing that she ends up like this!"
"The child was carried on the back. Hitting Mrs. Bai from behind would easily cause accidental injury to the daughter. Old Chen always looked down on her granddaughter, completely indifferent to whether the child gets hurt, hitting the daughter-in-law with such heavy hands. She deserves what she gets!"
The Monday morning quarterback group had among them those with daughters who were sympathetic to Mrs. Bai, and others who delight in chaos. So who just monts ago accused Mrs. Bai of unfilial conduct now turned to scorn Old Chen, forgetting their prior sympathy for her woes!
The people outside were engaged in lively discussion, while inside, the Qin Family was in awkward discomfort. They had just been mocking Mrs. Bai with great joy, and now, in a blink, two more were injured, and they were left unable to argue justly. How could they? Would they reason with a baby who can't even talk, only a few months old?
The beaten were not only unjustified, but in the wrong as well. Judging by people's contemptuous gazes towards Old Chen, it's clear. If Old Chen hadn't struck so heavily without avoiding the child, it wouldn't have co to this!
Even the village chief, who ca to diate, glared at Old Chen with distaste, showing his dislike for such bullying families. Looking at the people on the ground wailing incessantly, he said to Mr. Qin, "Now that it's co to this, hurry and get a doctor from the town!"
Finished speaking, he looked at Qin Shuangshuang with her half swollen and bruised face, adding with further disgust, "This child is only a few months old and got slapped so harshly. Hurry and have a doctor check on her, don't let her suffer any harm!"
In his final words, the village chief couldn't help but sigh at the sight of Qin Shuangshuang's woeful face and added, "Such a good child, this is truly tragic!"
