Why do I have the lowest fighting ability among the whole family?

Chapter 284 Past and Present Life (5)
Sure enough, by the time she returned home from hunting pigweed, the woman and Pei Yaozu were already sitting in the main room.

Seeing Pei Shao coming back, the woman immediately looked at her with a stern face, her face as dark as if it could drip water.

Pei Yaozu sat aside and peeled eggs to eat, not even bothering to look this way.

"Damn girl, where have you been?"

The woman knocked on the table and asked sternly: "I think you have an itchy bone! How dare you be lazy! You only got this little pigweed all day long?!"

"I've already fed the pigs."

Pei Shao's voice was low. She lowered her head, as if she didn't dare to look up because of fear: "These are extra..."

She had indeed fed the pigs in the morning, but she had used hay pulled from the roof.

The woman's anger faded a little.

"Have you been drying grain in the field since this afternoon?"

However, thinking of what happened in the afternoon, the woman still asked with a gloomy face.

Pei Shao shook his head. Seeing her like this, the woman seemed to be immediately energized.

"You worthless girl! You spend every day with Zhao Zhao next door, and she's been spotted by the immortal. Look at you? What can you do?"

Seeing Pei Shao standing aside, she became angry and sighed loudly.

Pei Shao was a little surprised when he heard what she said about Qin Zhaozhao.

It seemed that she already knew that Qin Zhaozhao was chosen and wanted to follow him to cultivate immortality.

I just don’t know what the attitude of the Qin family’s parents is.

Seeing Pei Shao cowering, the woman became angrier.

She picked up the last egg from the table and stuffed it into the hand of Pei Yaozu who was standing aside. She turned to Pei Shao and said angrily: "What are you doing standing there in a daze? Why don't you go sweep the floor and wipe the table!"

She had specially boiled these eggs in the morning to give them to the immortal, but the immortal didn't want them.

Fortunately, I didn't ask for it and let Yaozu eat it.

Pei Shao lowered his head and said, picked up a broom from the corner and went out.

And the woman had no time to care about her now.

Seeing Pei Yaozu devouring his food, the woman's face was filled with pity. She rubbed Pei Yaozu's hair and said softly: "Eat slowly, don't choke."

Pei Yaozu nodded confusedly, and the woman looked at him with pride on her face, and secretly made up her mind.

When Pei Shao walked out of the room, he heard the hustle and bustle outside the yard.

She opened the courtyard door and saw a group of people gathered in front of Qin Zhaozhao's house.

Probably the people in the village knew that Qin Zhaozhao was favored by the immortal. After all, the woman mentioned it to her just now...

She glanced into the room. The flickering light of the candle inside had been extinguished. It seemed that she was getting ready to sleep.

Pei Shao then carefully opened the courtyard door, stood at the entrance and looked over there.

The people were noisy, but the courtyard door of Qin Zhaozhao's house was never opened. I don't know who started it, and knelt down to the far door with a plop. Then, almost all the villagers stood down and kept talking. Shouting: "Immortal, please accept xx's obeisance——"

Looking at this scene, Pei Shao frowned.

It was probably because Yaoshan Village had not produced anyone capable of cultivating immortals for a long time. Qin Zhaozhao suddenly appeared, which caused such a sensation.

And Qin Zhaozhao faced this kind of scene for the first time.

She originally just wanted to discuss it with her parents, but as soon as she said it, they shouted it out, and then went out to publicize it, hoping that the whole world would know.

Qin Zhaozhao's face turned red, feeling unspeakably embarrassed.

Qin Zhaozhao's mother stood behind her anxiously and pushed her. "Zhaozhao, why are you stunned? Get out quickly!"

"Mother..." Qin Zhaozhao's voice was trembling with fear. She raised her head at a loss and looked at Qin's mother.

But Qin's mother didn't pay attention to her request for help at all. She dragged Qin Zhaozhao and opened the courtyard door.

Looking at the almost crazy villagers in front of him, Qin Zhaozhao almost closed his eyes in despair.

A middle-aged man, holding a boy in his arms, rushed out of the crowd and knelt on the ground in front of Qin Zhaozhao, crying at the top of his lungs.

"Zhaozhao girl! I am your Uncle Liu. Uncle Liu has been kind to you these years. Now you have become an immortal. Please save your brother!"

Qin Zhaozhao did not dare to speak, her whole body was trembling with fear. She kept holding on to the corners of her clothes tightly, and backed away at a loss when facing Uncle Liu's request for help.

"Zhaozhao, what are you hiding from?"

Qin's mother was a little displeased. She hurriedly pulled Qin Zhaozhao forward and said with earnest eyes: "Aren't you attracted by the immortal? Quickly use the magic to save your brother! Your uncle Liu has treated you like this all these years. Well, you can’t be so ungrateful..."

Qin Zhaozhao staggered when she pushed her. She looked up at the expectant villagers, her face full of panic.

She murmured a few words with her lips, and finally managed to spit out a few words.

"I...I won't..."

The voice was so thin that no one heard it except Qin's mother and Uncle Liu who were standing next to Qin Zhaozhao.

Qin's mother's expression changed. She hurriedly pushed Qin Zhaozhao hard and said sternly: "What are you talking about! Quickly cast magic!"

"I can't!" Qin Zhaozhao raised her head, her face full of tears, and she almost shouted.

The faces of the villagers kneeling in front of her changed, and they looked as if they wanted to eat her alive.

Pei Shao doesn't know what happened next.

Just as she was about to go out and say a word to Qin Zhaozhao, the woman pulled her back by her collar.

"You bitch! You bitch! You just know how to be lazy, don't you?"

Pei Shao was so thin that the woman easily picked her up without much strength and threw her roughly into the woodshed.

"Before dawn tomorrow, finish chopping this pile of firewood! If you can't finish chopping..."

She paused for a moment, then looked at Pei Shao with a sinister look.

Before leaving, the woman did not forget to lock the door of the woodshed.

Pei Shao sat on the ground leaning against the door, worried about Qin Zhaozhao.

But she is really incompetent.

For some reason, looking at the pile of firewood, Pei Shao suddenly felt a rebellious mentality in her heart. She kicked the ax away without even looking at it, lifted the quilt and lay down on the bed.

The woman didn't know what she was busy doing. She didn't have time to talk to Pei Shao the next day. She took Pei Yaozu out in a hurry early in the morning and took away the only egg-laying hen in the house.

Pei Shao, on the other hand, broke down the window of the woodshed before sneaking out.

She first went next door and knocked on the window of the house where Qin Zhaozhao lived. This was what they had done before when they went out to play.

But this time there was no response.

Pei Shao didn't waste any time. After confirming that the person was not in the house, he went to the grain drying field to find him.

This time she saw Qin Zhaozhao following the Cloud-Taking Sect disciples, looking a little decadent and lacking in energy.

The huge test stone still stood aside, and there was a long queue in front of it. The one coming today was from a village next door.
