Chen Dagui and Wang Qiuhua were delighted to hear that. Wang Qiuhua looked disdainful as she said, “Alright! You’d better keep your word. It’s been so hard on us, having to support two loafers like you. In the end, both of you have grown up to be ungrateful and vicious. Get lost and don’t ever come back.”

Chen Goudan’s eyes were filled with tears, but he continued to hold his little sister as he spoke to the brigade leader, Wang Mingtao, who had just rushed over. “Brigade leader, I… My little sister and I will live on our own. I won’t burden my eldest uncle’s family any longer. I’m grown up now and I can support her.

“I want to return to my father’s old house. Will you allow me to move out?”

Wang Mingtao was the Qing River Brigade’s leader. He was a very fair person and everyone trusted him. He had hurried over when he heard the noise, only to hear these words upon his arrival.

Wang Mingtao said to Chen Dagui angrily, “Dagui, can’t you even tolerate these two children? Do you have to force them out of your house?”

As the brigade leader, Wang Mingtao knew the people in the brigade. He was well aware of Chen Goudan and his sister’s living conditions.

But times were just too hard, and many people suffered. They were unable to help.

Now, Chen Goudan wanted to move out, and Wang Mingtao’s first assumption was that Chen Dagui had forced them to go.

Chen Dagui looked at Wang Mingtao with some misgivings, but stuck to his story. “I… I didn’t. Brigade leader, he wanted to go. He hit my Xiaobao today. Look, Xiaobao is such a small child, but he still hit Xiaobao. Why shouldn’t I beat a vicious little beast like him?”

Chen Goudan was afraid that the topic would be diverted, so he continued to shout, “Brigade leader, it was my idea to move out. I… I’m grown up now. I can really take care of my own little sister. I can!”
