91 Hitting Someone While They Were Down

"Oh, right. Lady Qin said that you're in charge of the money in your family."

Aunty Liu nodded. Although she was also very curious as to why Mo Ruyue would let a child manage the money, Da Bao's words and actions were more mature and reliable than the average adult, so a lot of her doubts were resolved.

Besides, she was on the babies' side. Mo Ruyue was the stepmother after all. Although she took care of the babies like a different person now, who knew if she would change back one day? By that time, the babies would have houses and money in their hands. They would also have their household registration in their hands. Moreover, Da Bao was so independent. He could live without her and did not have to worry that they would be as miserable as before.

Very quickly, Uncle Liu had the ox-cart set up. He carried the young babies onto the ox-cart one by one and drove the cart away from the Qin Family Village.

Although Mo Ruyue was not at home, the villagers were still very concerned about the movements of the Qin Family's eldest branch. Thus, the moment the babies left the Qin Family Village, this news spread throughout the entire village.

"Mother, do you think that Mo Ruyue has gotten her retribution this time? I was just thinking that if she was convicted and sent to prison, we can think of a way to get that house and land back."

"If those five kids don't have that b*tch Mo Ruyue's support, they won't be able to do anything. With us mother and son working together, I'm afraid we can't do this."

Ever since Qin Xu had been driven back to the Qin Family's old house, he rarely went to the city to drink. Now that he was not living well and was short of money, even eating was a problem. How could he have the money to let him drink?

In the past, Qin Shi had plenty of money and would indulge him a little, but now the whole family had to take out money for food and expenses. She couldn't bear to let Qin Xu drink horse urine soup anymore.

It was difficult to get a drunkard to slowly get rid of his addiction, and it could easily relapse, let alone break it off suddenly. However, after a short period of time, Qin Xu's entire body was tortured by the addiction to alcohol until he was thin to the bone, like a skeleton. It was a very scary sight.

Now, he stayed at home every day, thinking about where to get some money. As long as the Qin Family had a few Wen in their hands, or if he found something that could be pawned, he would hurry to the city, even if it was only enough to buy a bowl of wine to temporarily satisfy his hunger.

Originally, he thought that this kind of life would continue until his death. He didn't expect that Mo Ruyue would suddenly offend the county magistrate of the county. This was simply a great blessing for him. Perhaps with this, he could go back to the days where he didn't have to worry about money!

Qin Shi sat cross-legged on the Kang, holding a tobacco pipe pot in her hand. She smoked the tobacco leaves, and the smoke from her mouth covered her face from time to time. Her pair of sinister triangular eyes were covered by her drooping eyelids, so it was impossible to tell what she was thinking.

"Mother, what are you thinking? Say something!"

Qin Xu choked on the smoke as he spoke and coughed violently for a long time before stopping. However, this cough brought out his alcohol addiction.

It was as if maggots were crawling all over his body, and he felt extremely itchy all over. His mouth was so dry that it made him extremely irritated. If he couldn't drink a few bowls of wine, then he could just scold or fight whoever he caught. It seemed to be able to relieve some of his discomfort.
