"Brother Zhang Yuan..."

Xiu'er was in a mess. After falling a few times, she was covered in mud marks. She ran to the kitchen and threw herself into Zhang Yuan's arms and completely lost consciousness.

Behind her, a series of torches lit up and a roar that soared into the sky.

"Xiu'er! Xiu'er!"

Zhang Yuan shouted a few times, and looked sad when he saw the bruises on her neck.

The next moment, Yu Qinghuan's voice rang in his ears.

"Carry into our room, hurry."

Zhang Yuan did not dare to delay and hugged Xiu'er into the house.

As soon as he entered, a group of men holding torches rushed to Zhang Jin's doorstep.

"Zhang Yuan, I know it's you guy, you dare to deceive my daughter. I won't chop you up!"

The person who spoke in the lead was a man in his thirties and forties. He had a ferocious face and a harsh expression. He could tell at a glance that he was not a kind person.

Zhang Yuan took a hammer from the kitchen and walked out, put the hammer at the door, and said unwillingly: "What are you shouting, what are you quarreling?! Zhao Laoer, are you still a man?! Why are you stubborn to your daughter? If you have the ability, go to your wife!"

The one who called Zhao Laoer was Xiu'er's father. He led this group of people to be the men in the village.

Although they are numerous and powerful, Zhang Yuan has been making irons since he was a child. He is burly and strong. He picked up the hammer's hand and the muscles on his arms. If he swung the hammer, it might kill people, and no one dared to act rashly.

The outside world was in a state of stalemate, and Yu Qinghuan in the inner room began to rescue Zhao Xiuer.

Originally, Yang Qian and Changsun Tao wanted to help beside him, but because Zhao Xiu'er was a girl, it was somewhat inconvenient, so Yu Qinghuan drove them aside.

"Yan Yan, they bully the few with the more. Should they help Zhang Yuan?"

Yu Qinghuan said without raising his head while putting the needle on it: "Caocao, the one who is lying on this bed is Zhang Yuan's beloved woman. It is Zhang Yuan's responsibility to protect her. We can help for a while, but we can't help for a lifetime. He has to face this matter by himself."

Seeing that Changsun Tao was a little confused, Yu Qinghuan continued to explain: "If he is a coward, he can't even protect the person he likes, then he will feed the dog everything we did to help him untie the knot, and he is not worthy of Miss Xiu'er. But if he can handle it to the end and do his best to take on the responsibility of being a man, then we will help him and never let him fall down."

Under Yu Qinghuan's rescue, Zhao Xiu'er slowly opened her eyes. She let out a whimper, and when she saw Yu Qinghuan's smiling face, her vigilance became a little weaker.

"Awaken?" Yu Qinghuan asked her, "I was going to hang my neck just now? I almost broke my neck."

Zhao Xiu'er looked at Yu Qinghuan timidly, like a poor puppy: "Who are you?"

Yu Qinghuan smiled slightly: "I am a doctor girl. The two men over there are my husband and his elder brother. I pass by here and temporarily live in Master Zhang's house."

Zhao Xiuer was shocked: "Master Zhang? Brother Zhang Yuan, where is my brother Zhang Yuan?"

Yu Qinghuan took the needle back into the bracelet on his wrist: "The man you admire is outside to protect you."

Zhao Xiu'er's face turned red subconsciously, and then she immediately got up: "There are many people, and Brother Zhang Yuan can't beat him. I'll go and help him!"

Yu Qinghuan quickly pressed her down and said, "If you die, then it's not interesting to protect you with your brother Zhang Yuan. You are seriously injured and need to rest."

Zhao Xiu'er subconsciously pulled up her clothes, fearing that others would see the wounds all over her body.

Yes, there are bruises all over the body, new and old, scalds, cuts, burns, pinchs, scratches, and scratches of sharp weapons. There are all kinds of bruises on the body. There are still bruises on the body that have not dissipated, which shows that they have just been hit.

"Who fought?" Yu Qinghuan asked her, "Maybe I can't make the decision for you when I say it, but I can still get two birds and people who are worse than beasts."

Zhao Xiu'er's eyes suddenly turned red: "Good man, save me..."

It turned out that when Zhao Xiu'er's mother was still alive, his father had been sleeping in the woods with the widow in the village. The widow looked handsome and delicate, and it fascinated Zhao Xiu'er's father.

Moreover, she is accustomed to being a human being, which makes the whole village of the village take good care of their orphans and widows, but in private, she is a two-faced person with a cruel mind and a water-like poplar flower. It can be said that she is a cousin and a archway.

The widow fell in love with Zhao Laoer because Zhao Laoer knew Luban skills and had a relatively wealthy family background, so she targeted Zhao Xiuer's mother in various ways.

For example, to provoke trouble and join forces with the people in the village to isolate Zhao Xiu'er's mother, so that she can't stay in the village.

What's even more vicious is that she and her husband were involved in accusing Zhao Xiu'er of committing adultery with others.

In anger, Zhao Laoer beat Zhao Xiu'er's mother to death.

Of course, only Zhao Xiu'er knew about the widow's viciousness, because she never avoided Zhao Xiu'er. When she first brought her son to the Zhao family, she told Zhao Xiu'er about how she forced Zhao Xiu'er's mother to death. At that time, Zhao Xiu'er was only four years old.

The widow was never stingy with Zhao Xiu'er. She was the best food and clothing in the village. Everyone would like to praise her as a good stepmother when she met her.

But because Zhao Xiu'er's clothes are always new and beautiful, her peers in the village are isolated. She has no friends except Zhang Yuan, who is a few years older than her.

Zhao Xiu'er once cried and told her father about the widow's vicious behavior, but instead she was beaten. Zhao Laoer thought Zhao Xiu'er was ignorant and widows were always close to her. She actually falsely accused the widow because she was a stepmother. So every time Zhao Xiu'er said something bad about widows, Zhao Laoer would beat her.

Later, after she completely grasped Zhao Lao Er, the widow became more and more violent. She began to abuse Zhao Xiu'er, and she often beat Zhao Xiu'er until she vomited blood.

Sometimes when the fight was too severe, she couldn't hold on, so she went to Zhao Laoer to moan, saying that Zhao Xiu'er was targeting her again, crying out all the grievances of being a stepmother, and then she got out of the kang with Zhao Laoer again.

When Zhao Lao Er is dominated by his second son, he will beat Zhao Xiuer hard in anger.

So even if someone sees Zhao Xiuer's injuries, he thinks it was Zhao Laoer's move.

It’s not that the stepmother is harsh, but Zhao Laoer beats his daughter, so no one can say anything.

This is how Zhao Xiuer was beaten up.

But the widow even bought a fancy dress for Zhao Xiu'er to wear, allowing Zhao Xiu'er to cover up the wounds on her body, which is sarcastic to say.

Zhao Xiu'er's life is not enough to describe it. As for his relationship with Zhang Yuan - one suffered all the hardships and suffered all the hardships in the world, and the other lost his father since childhood and was forced to take on the responsibility of family. It is not surprising that such two people appreciate each other and regard each other as redemption in their lives.
