Traveling through ancient times to survive

Zhao Lan didn't know that Zhao Chengshan was already angry with her. As a father, Zhao Chengshan didn't blame his wife for abusing his daughter. Instead, he blamed his daughter for exposing the matter and bringing shame to him.

The clan leader's face was so dark that water could drip out: "Zhao Chengshan! I didn't know there were such cruel parents like you in our clan!"

Zhao Chengshan continued to argue, "Chief, it's my fault. Lan Ya is a girl, and she's already this old. As a father, I can't ask too many questions. I can only hand her over to her mother. I didn't expect her mother to ignore her so much. I asked about all the things Lan Ya said, and her mother said she had arrangements and didn't let me ask too much. How could I know that it was arranged like this?"

When the patriarch was furious, more and more tribesmen got the news and rushed over, and Zhao Qing and Zhao Hong happened to hear all of his words when they arrived.

Zhao Hong's angry voice came: "Enough! Dad, stop telling lies to everyone! My sister and I have never been liked by you since we were young. We are your family's maids at home. We have to work since we were four or five years old. We do a lot of work and eat only a few bites. We are so hungry that we are pale and thin. We are about the same height as girls two or three years younger than us. Moreover, when mother is in a bad mood, she beats and scolds us. She is as cruel as beating enemies and doesn't care whether we live or die. As for you, you are always like a blind man. You can't hear us sisters begging for mercy and help. Later, I learned to be smart. I hide when mother beats us, otherwise how can we live past ten years old?"

The tribesmen were amazed and pointed at the two of them.

"This couple is simply unworthy of being parents. No one in our clan treats their daughter like this."

"That's right. Even if a daughter is not as important as a son, she is still your own daughter. How can you treat her like this?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, his family is simply a hellhole. Who would dare to marry their daughter to his family in the future?"

Zhao Chengshan’s eyes went dark. It was over. His family’s reputation was ruined.

Mrs. Zhao was fearless. They were just two little girls. She should be grateful if she could feed them and keep them alive. As for marrying a wife, her brother Cheng wanted to marry a girl from the city. She didn't even look down on the peasants in the village.

Zhao Hong was overwhelmed with emotion and tears fell down. She wanted to take this opportunity to tear off the fig leaf of her mother's home so that her sister could escape from this terrible place.

Zhao Hong continued to complain in a hoarse voice: "And last time when it was extremely cold, my sister got sick from the cold. She was shaking all over. I begged you to light a brazier for my sister to keep warm. What did you say? You said she didn't deserve to use a brazier and that she was doomed to freeze to death! You obviously still had a lot of charcoal, but you were so cruel to watch your own daughter freeze to death! You said that there was less charcoal and you had to save it. Ha, how did you run out of charcoal? It was all burned in your precious son's study room for twelve hours a day. You were willing to waste it on your precious son but not on Lan Ya to save her life! Lan Ya was tough and survived, but this high fever also burned away her memory! My poor sister, she forgot everything! Looking at my sister's confused eyes, I didn't dare to tell her,"

The tribesmen looked at Zhao Lan with sympathy. Zhao Lan lowered her head and wiped her tears silently. What a poor child! By this calculation, she had said one less thing. It was really unlucky for her to meet such parents!

The clan leader had completely given up. He believed that girl Lan could no longer follow Zhao Chengshan's family. He simply ignored Zhao Chengshan and looked at Zhao Lan with pity.

"Lan girl, are you willing to be adopted by your uncle Chengsong? Your uncle and aunt just want a good and gentle daughter, but unfortunately they have only had three brats for so many years. If you are willing, grandpa and the whole family will support you."

"No, Chief, I am willing to raise such a well-behaved daughter!"

"My house is the best, come to my house!"

Many tribesmen vied to adopt Zhao Lan, and Zhao Lan was touched, but she had a golden finger in her hand, and living alone was the best solution.

"Thank you for your kindness, uncles and aunts. I am already a big kid and I want to live on my own. Grandpa, clan leader, I want to separate from my parents and open a separate household!"

Zhao Lan thanked each of the tribesmen who were willing to adopt her and speak for her.

The clan leader frowned and refused: "No, you are only thirteen years old, how can you live alone?"

Zhao Qing's clear and graceful voice interrupted forcefully: "Grandpa clan leader, let Lan Ya live with me. I will take care of her and make sure she is well fed and clothed."

Who can have enough food now? Everyone turned around angrily, wanting to know who was bragging. Oh, it turned out to be Zhao Qing, no problem, with his hunting skills, it would be no problem for Zhao Lan to have enough food.

The clan leader didn't understand the deep meaning of Zhao Qing's words: "Why don't you discuss this with your parents?"

"Grandpa, I plan to build a small house to live in alone, so it's a good idea for Lan Ya to come and keep me company."

"What? You want to live alone too? Are you also mad at your parents?"

The clan leader was horrified. What went wrong? Why was there more than one case of abusing his own daughter in the clan? The clan leader fell into deep suspicion.

"Hiss~ Qingya, such a capable girl is disliked by her own parents? God is so blind. Why didn't she be reborn in my family? If I had such a capable daughter, I would wake up with laughter in my dreams. How could he still abuse her? She simply doesn't know how lucky she is!" Some tribesmen were heartbroken and expressed envy.

"No, Chengchuan is also like this? Could it be that this is passed down from Zhao Yuanmu's lineage?"

"Bullshit, are you saying that there is something wrong with our Zhao family's bloodline? Have you seen other families with this problem? It's obviously Sun Xiaocao's bloodline that is not good!"

"The village chief is not good to his own daughter, how can he really do good for us?"

Some tribesmen have begun to question whether choosing Zhao Chengchuan as village chief was the right decision.

The tribesmen's thoughts were running like wild horses, and Zhao Qing quickly interrupted them. If they continued to think further, her father would cry.

"No, who can make me angry? My fists are not easy to mess with. It's my own fault. I will definitely go out of the valley to hunt more often in the future. The time to go home is uncertain. It's not convenient to live with them, so I want to live alone."

The clan leader looked at him suspiciously: "Are you really not being bullied?"

Zhao Qing opened his eyes wide and looked sincere, determined to let his fellow tribesmen see his sincerity.

"Really? I'm not the type to get bullied."

Zhao Lan quickly chimed in, "I've lived at my second uncle's house for quite a few days. My second uncle and second aunt are very kind to my niece. How could they bully their own daughter? My second uncle listens to my cousin the most. Uncles and aunts must not misunderstand me."

With Zhao Lan's strong evidence, everyone finally believed Zhao Qing.

The clan leader asked again: "Lan Ya, are you willing to live with your cousin?"

Zhao Lan replied excitedly: "I do!"
