Chapter 241 - 241 The Ding Family
241 The Ding Family
She must have escaped and left Shaoding Village. Infact, she might be planning to leave the county!
Probably…
Probably that was how she turned her life around and walked to the peak of her life.
She had escaped!
Did she save some extraordinary man who came to pay back his gratitude, so that they got married and she became rich due to her husband.
The images she had seen about the girl must have happened after she reached the peak.
She felt slightly better as she thought about these.
At least she knew that after going through twists and turns, the girl would have a bright future.
Otherwise… what would happen to a girl who ran away from her clan and drifted about outside? That thought made her feel anxious.
Qiao Xuan learned of the whole story from Ms. Fang.
Ms. Zhou had wanted to give Ding Xiang some food and drink for dinner the night before, but Fifth Grandma Ding was too annoyed to approve of this idea.
She had lectured Ms. Zhou and ordered her not to give the girl any food.
Fifth Grandpa Ding was also very annoyed by how Ding Xiang humiliated them in front of the whole village, so he intended to make her reflect on herself and let her suffer. He also ordered not to give her any food, until she admitted her mistake.
In Fifth Grandpa Ding’s opinion, she would not die just because she missed a meal.
She needed to be seriously disciplined, so she could know what mistake she had made and that she would never dare to do it again.
Ding Erzhu cared for his daughter, but he was too obedient to counter what his daughter had said.
He did not even raise his voice in front of his parents.
Ms. Zhou became desperate. She cried throughout the night.
The following morning, Ms. Zhou felt even more distressed.
But she did not get any chance to shed tears. She had no choice but to make food whilst listening to her mother-in-law’s horrible words…
All the way until lunchtime, Ms. Zhou could not stand it any more. She decided to sneak in a bowl of porridge for her daughter at the ancestral hall.
However, she failed to find Ding Xiang at the ancestral hall.
She looked everywhere, but Ding Xiang was nowhere to be seen!
Mentally stimulated, Ms. Zhou staggered home and passed on the message, begging everyone to help her find the daughter.
The Ding Family got startled.
Apart from Ms. Zhou and Ding Erzhu, everyone else got furious about it.
Fifth Grandma Ding snapped. “What? That damned girl ran away? How dare she run away from the ancestral hall? She better not come back, otherwise I will break her leg!”
Fifth Grandpa Ding also trembled in anger. “Unruly kid! This girl has to be lectured!”
The first and the third sections of the family also made complaints.
“We are now the joke of the village again!”
“Second Brother and Second Sister-in-law, how did you turn Ding Xiang into such a kid!”
“I have never seen a girl as bold as this! She ran away from the ancestral hall! Damn!”
“Second Sister-in-law, just don’t keep crying! The girl must be hiding somewhere in the mountains and she will return when it turns dark, otherwise, where would she go?”
