Refusing to marry a widower, I went on a crazy spree of sending my children to the army.

Chapter 497 Grandpa Qiao, can you adopt me? I will definitely take good care of you and my great-aun

Qiao Kangkang neither cried nor made a fuss, letting Qiao Laosi punch and kick him.

When Qiao Lao Er returned, fearing that someone might die, he stopped Qiao Lao Si.

"Fourth brother, what are you doing! If you think he's an eyesore, just throw him out. Why beat him up like this? Do you want to go to jail or something?"

Old Qiao cursed, "This little brat actually dared to try and steal my house!"

Damn it, I haven't even settled the score with him for killing his own grandmother yet!

"Is this the time to talk about these things? Hurry up and go inside to see Mother, and pick a day for her burial!"

Qiao Lao Er glanced at Qiao Kang Kang with disdain, kicked open the door, and looked at the heated kang with disgust.

The old lady on the kang (a heated brick bed) had already grown cold, and the mattress beneath her was yellowish-brown with a strong stench.

The quilts were all worn smooth and grimy, dark and stiff.

Qiao Lao Er originally planned to lift the blanket and tidy up his mother so that she could leave with dignity.

As soon as he lifted a corner of the blanket, he smelled a stench of rotting flesh, which startled him so much that he staggered several steps.

"Qiao Kang Kang, how did you take care of Grandma? You made her develop so many bedsores!"

No one answered. Qiao Lao Er came out to look and found the yard empty except for a few drops of blood in a corner.

"Second brother, second brother, where are you?"

Qiao Lao Er guiltily stuffed the bricks in the corner of his house: "Here, here, what's wrong?"

"Where's Qiao Kang Kang? Why isn't he responding after I've been calling him for so long!"

"Isn't he...?" Qiao Lao Er turned his head: "Hey, where is he?"

The two brothers' hearts skipped a beat, and they ran out to look for the person.

There were small pools of blood on the ground at intervals, until they disappeared without a trace after several dozen meters.

At the foot of the mountain, Qiao Lingyue was happily chatting with her grandson and granddaughter-in-law when a former educated youth came running over in a panic, carrying a child.

"Captain, something terrible has happened! Qiao Kangkang has been beaten to death!"

Wang Defa's heart skipped a beat: "What's going on? Surely Qiao Lao Er and Qiao Lao Si wouldn't be so reckless!"

As it turns out, they were indeed arrogant and conceited.

Qiao Lingyue stepped forward and asked Wang Zhiqing to put the person on the ground.

I raised my hand to check Qiao Kangkang's breathing; it was almost nonexistent. I reached out to feel his pulse; it was barely perceptible.

He hurriedly took out silver needles from his pocket and inserted them into several important acupoints.

After stabilizing Qiao Kangkang's heartbeat, she took out a small rejuvenating pill made by Qiao Manman and put it in his mouth.

A moment later, Qiao Kangkang's heart started beating again, and he coughed up all the stagnant blood in his body.

"He's alive! He's alive!" Wang Zhengbao exclaimed in surprise, pointing at Qiao Kangkang. "He's alive!"

"So what if he's alive? What's the big deal!"

Wang Zhengbao looked at everyone in disbelief: "Shouldn't you be surprised? Qiao Kangkang's injuries are so serious..."

"Wait, wasn't he about to die? How come he's sitting up!"

Wang Zhengbao rolled up his sleeve: "You're injured? I can't see it!"

Qiao Kang Kang shook his head, indicating that he did not know.

Wang Defa coughed lightly: "Qiao Kang Kang, what just happened?"

Qiao Kangkang's timid eyes rolled down two lines of clear tears: "Captain, Fourth Uncle is blaming me for not taking good care of Grandma and is going to beat me to death!"

Waaah, Kang Kang doesn't want to die! Kang Kang didn't neglect Grandma!

Kang Kang is just not strong enough to turn his grandma over and change her bedding, but he always saves all the food for his grandma!

Captain Uncle..."

She was about to faint when she met Qiao Lingyue's sharp eyes, and straightened up: "Grandpa Qiao, thank you for saving me!"

Qiao Lingyue waved her hand, not wanting to pay him any more attention.

Qiao Kangkang knelt on the ground and said, "Grandpa Qiao, can you adopt me? I will definitely take good care of you and my great-aunt!"
