Chapter 33: Don’t Want to Go Back
"Village Chief Grandpa, we didn’t steal. The jade was left for Nuannuan by our mother."
Hu Li’s face suddenly turned ugly. If these words got out, how would the villagers gossip about her, saying she coveted the belongings of her predecessor? Would she still have any shame? Would she ever be able to go out again? She fiercely twisted Qin Guohua’s arm.
"Qin Guohua, I’m done dealing with these two children. Now, you decide: do you want me or them? With them around, our family will never have a moment of peace."
At this point, Qin Guohua was actually feeling some regret. No matter what, they were still his children. Moreover, Qin Xiangyang was an important labor force in the family.

Qin Xiangnuan, in Qin Xiangyang’s arms, lifted her small face. She intentionally pulled up her sleeve, revealing an arm full of scars. She broke free from Qin Xiangyang’s arm and then stood up and knelt down to the Village Chief.
"Village Chief Grandpa, Nuannuan and my brother want to survive, please, Village Chief Grandpa, save us."
Qin Xiangyang also wiped his face, knelt down with his sister, "Yes, Village Chief Grandpa, please save us, Dad will kill Nuannuan."
"You two little rabbits, get back home immediately," Qin Guohua stood up and was about to grab the two children but the Village Chief stood in his way.
"Guohua, what are you doing?"
