Joyful Motherhood in a Rural Family-Chapter 417 - : Liu Baihan’s Farce
Chapter 417: Chapter 417: Liu Baihan’s Farce
Liu Baihan didn’t care if she was angry or not. He laughed and took out three tattered flower lanterns from behind him, handing them to Liu Sisi’s face.
“Sisi, look, I really came here to deliver the flower lanterns on the command of Dad and Mom!”
As he spoke, he handed the tattered lanterns over to Liu Sisi’s eyes.
He hadn’t talked about Liu Sisi being so angry yet. When her eyes fell on the flower lanterns in his hand, she immediately became furious! Could that be called a flower lantern?
At the moment, the rags in Liu Baihan’s hands not only had broken red paper on the surface, but also exposed the sorghum stalks inside. In one of them, only a main stem and half a piece of red paper were left, tied together by a rope, fluttering in the wind with a rustling sound.
Liu Sisi took a deep breath, looked down at the so-called flower lanterns in his hand, couldn’t help but spit out some air again, and then took two more deep breaths. She mustered up all her strength and shouted angrily.
“Liu Baihan! ”
Di Yelei, who was making flower lanterns inside, heard the commotion outside and rushed out without even putting down the lanterns.
“Sisi! Sisi, what’s wrong with you? You… ”
His gaze fell on the three so-called flower lanterns, and couldn’t get the rest of the words out.
Following the flower lanterns up, he met a face that was laughing heartlessly.
That face and Liu Sisi looked somewhat alike. The moment it saw Di Yelei, it sized him up and down and then raised its head: “So you’re Di Yelei? You’re just a widower who lost his wife, big and rough-looking, yet you’ve been praised like a flower. What makes you compare to me, Liu Baihan?”
His words left Liu Sisi so angry she couldn’t even speak her own thoughts.
“You… are you still my brother? Do you curse your own sister like this?”
Calling him a widower over and over again, were these words coming from his own brother-in-law? No wonder he sold his own sister.
Di Yelei’s face also turned extremely ugly, and his fists clenched and unclenched repeatedly.
If it weren’t for Liu Sisi’s sake, he wouldn’t have beaten the man in front of him to the ground with a single punch, and he wouldn’t be named Di!
Liu Baihan beside them showed no awareness of being beaten and still laughed heartlessly.
“If it weren’t for your big brother-in-law, where would you find a wife? You deserve to be a widower all your life and remain a bachelor.”
The anger building up in Di Yelei’s heart finally burst, and he swung his fist to strike…
“Ah! Cough, help! Sob, sob… ”
The sudden cry for help from the stable immediately startled the three of them.
Could it be that the child was attacked by the horse…
Liu Sisi’s heart trembled, and she shouted anxiously, “Quick! Go save the person!”
Di Yelei didn’t even bother with the others. He took two steps and sprinted straight into the stable.
In just a short time, the stable had changed drastically at the moment, and chaos reigned.
Horse feed flew out of the trough, hay was torn messier than a chicken nest, and even the horse blanket on the horse’s back had fallen to the ground, covered in various stains. Even the restless jujube red horse was smeared with horse feces and urine for some reason, and at the moment, its tail was dangling a half-grown child, making the horse even more restless and constantly neighing.
Anyone who had raised horses would know the consequences of grabbing a horse’s tail. The horse would most likely kick you with its hooves. If you weren’t kicked to death by those hooves, you’d be considered lucky!
Fortunately, the jujube red horse hadn’t gone wild just yet. It was a stroke of luck in the midst of misfortune!

Upon seeing the scene before him, a shocked Di Yelei let out a loud roar!
“Watch out! Let go quickly!”
It was unclear whether it was the people who had scared the horse or its patience had reached its limit, but it suddenly raised its head and let out a long neigh, its body violently lashing out and its hind hooves kicking fiercely…
The half-grown child could no longer hold onto the horse’s tail and was struck by its hooves, flying away…
This scene was also witnessed by Liu Sisi and Liu Baihan, who were following close behind, and it startled them both.
“Hua Er”
Liu Baihan couldn’t care about anything else, he threw the lantern out of his hand and stepped over it, rushing towards the direction where the child was thrown.
Liu Sisi also wanted to chase after but suddenly turned back.
Something was wrong! She clearly saw two children earlier, where did the other child go?
The jujube red horse had gone crazy, breaking free from its reins in the stable and leaping out from the main entrance before galloping away.
Liu Sisi didn’t have time to worry about the runaway horse, she hurriedly searched the stable and finally found the trembling child in a straw pile in one corner. She quickly dragged the child out of the stable.
The child was obviously quite scared. He couldn’t stand still, trembling all over his body. His clothes were covered in horse urine and manure, as well as straw and debris, making it almost impossible to tell the original color of his clothes.
“It’s not good! The Di’s family horse got frightened! I just saw your family’s horse break its reins and run away!”
From outside the door came the shout of a fellow villager, who quickly ran towards the Di Residence’s gate. Once inside, he naturally saw the chaos everywhere.
Especially Liu Sisi and the child in her arms, their disheveled state frightened the villager, causing him to cry out in shock!
Soon, many fellow villagers came to Di family’s yard to watch the scene.
The good thing about these simple villagers was that they would always help each other when someone was in trouble. However, at this moment, Liu Sisi really wished that these villagers weren’t so enthusiastic!
As the number of people surrounding the Di family’s yard increased, Liu Sisi gave up trying to hide her embarrassing state and let everyone come and go as they pleased.
From behind the stable, Liu Baihan’s mournful cries still echoed.
“Hua Er, my Hua Er! You mustn’t die! I’m telling you, you have to compensate for my Hua Er, you can’t send me away with just seven or eight taels…”
The heartbreaking cries continued to draw people out from their houses, including the villagers who had just entered the Di family.
Liu Sisi, ignoring the child collapsed on the ground, tried to stand up but was tightly held by the child by her clothes. The hands smeared with horse urine and manure not only waved on the child’s own face but also smeared it on Liu Sisi’s clothes.
Seeing her clothes quickly becoming a mess, Liu Sisi could no longer suppress the churning in her stomach and began to retch violently.
Behind the stable, the child was lying on the ground with his back facing the crowd.
The strong impact had knocked off the thick grass curtain that blocked the wind on the side of the stable. The long grass curtain fell, covering more than half of the child’s body.
“You have to compensate! I’m telling you, Liu Sisi, if you don’t compensate me 100 taels of silver today, you won’t be able to send me, Liu Baihan, away! My poor Hua Er…”
