After hearing this, the three daughters-in-law who ran out after hearing the commotion were heartbroken. The expressions on their faces were not to mention ugly, but they had nothing to say at this time. After all, this was the situation, and their hearts were also biased towards their son.
.
"How can that be done? Mom, Zichen only has a daughter like Ke'er..." Xia Qiyue tried to use the excuse just now to persuade the old lady, but it didn't work this time.
"My old lady is powerless and can only save one son for my fourth son. As for my daughter, there is nothing I can do for her!"
After saying that, he ran in with a bowl filled with water, and under An Qingke's eager eyes, fed it directly to An Qingxuan who was lying beside him.
Xia Qiyue's heart hurt like a knife. A three-year-old child was given up by her grandparents at a critical moment of life and death. Even though the life-saving water was right in front of her, it was fed to her brother instead of her. How could she accept this?
Already.
Xia Qiyue suddenly rushed to the upper room. Before anyone could react, he ran to the upper room, took a hammer from the outer room and smashed the lock of the locked cabinet, all at once.
By the time everyone came to their senses, she had already received a bag of water, walked out, and raised her hands above her head.
The old man didn't care about his grandson anymore. He grabbed the old lady and ran out, his lips trembling nervously.
The whole family only had two bottles of water, and the fourth child actually took one away. This meant the whole family would die.
"Xia Qiyue, put down the water bag for me!" The old lady no longer felt any distress at this time. Faced with Xia Qiyue's actions, the old lady became extremely furious.
"Don't move any of you, or I will drink all the water and move back!" Xia Qiyue pointed behind everyone and shouted loudly for them to move back.
Old Man An didn't dare to bet, so he could only tell everyone to move back.
"What do you want?" he asked in a deep voice as he backed away.
Xia Qiyue did not dare to be careless and observed the surroundings. At the same time, she spoke out to discuss terms with Old Man An, "Give me Ke'er a few sips of this water to save my life!"
"Don't even think about it! That's for the grandson of our old An family. Girls have no share!" Before Old Man An could say anything, Old Mrs. An simply refused.
"Then there's nothing to say!" Xia Qiyue pulled out the stopper of the water bag and said, "I'll drink all the water!"
As soon as she finished speaking and drank, An Zicheng, the boss of the An family, ran up to her without caring.
Xia Qiyue screamed, "Don't move. If you come up to grab it, I'd rather fall down than anyone else."
As he spoke, he tilted the water bag slightly, and a drop of water poured out.
"Boss, don't mess around!" Old Man An nervously grabbed An Zicheng, "Don't any of you move around!" and then warned the others.
Don’t you know how valuable this water is now? No matter who drinks it, he can’t drink it. He will be punished by God.
"Dad, look at how crazy she is, what are you doing to stop us? I wish I could go up and kick her to death, so everyone should stop drinking!"
An Zihang, the second eldest son of the An family, was dragged by the old man and shouted angrily.
"Please calm down!" Old Man An shouted majestically, which really frightened his sons who were about to make a move.
Then he turned to look at Xia Qiyue, "You really only gave Ke'er two sips and then returned it?"
Although his face looked ugly, he still asked calmly.
Xia Qiyue nodded, "Really! I just want to save my children and don't want to embarrass everyone! I also ask my father to be noble and save the children!"
The old lady said again, "I can only take one sip."
Xia Qiyue knew that the old couple had compromised, and she felt a little relieved. Although she only had a sip of water, it could alleviate the situation of the two little ones, and she could have time to think of a solution.
"Father, mother, it's unfair. Don't you mean that all the girls in the family can't drink? Then if Ke'er drinks it, we Yan'er can't be without a share! We are all the granddaughters of the Lao An family, so we can't favor one over the other! We, Yan'er, can't drink it.
He is also dying and lying in the house!"
Before Xia Qiyue could be happy, her sister-in-law Liu Mei spoke up, looking like she had been wronged a lot, wiping away non-existent tears with her hands.
Who doesn't know that she is dispensable to her twelve-year-old daughter An Qingyan. Even if she wants to get this water, she can't even enter An Qingyan's mouth. She just can't stand Xia Qiyue and Xia Qingyan.
Good for those two kids.
But knowing that Gui Gui knew, the others said nothing. In fact, the third sister-in-law Ge Mingyu even said to help: "We Ling'er are not much better, we are all waiting for that sip of water to save our lives. Dad, Mom, how can you save us?"
Son, we have to save Ling'er, Ling'er is only five years old!"
This is because the second brother's family does not have a daughter, otherwise the second sister-in-law would not remain silent.
Xia Qiyue sneered, she was really...a cold-blooded human being, she could do anything so nonchalantly in a life-or-death situation, just for that sip of water. It's not like she didn't know that their daughter didn't lack that sip of water.
, these three sisters-in-law are very capable, they all got some water and hid it secretly.
"Then what do you want?" Xia Qiyue asked the three people coldly.
She knew that it was impossible for the old man to agree to give water to all his granddaughters. If she drank or poured the water as she said, then today would be the day she died.
"Looking at what the fourth brother and sister said, we didn't think anything of it! We just want to save our daughter just like you!" Liu Mei said in a mocking tone.
Ge Mingyu also nodded, "Fourth brother and sister, please do me a favor and give Ling'er a sip! She's dying too!"
At this time, Old Man An actually calmed down, and did not say anything to stop his daughters-in-law, and just watched from the side.
The old lady was used to looking at the old man's face and seeing that he was silent. Even though she was about to explode with anger, she did not say anything.
Xia Qiyue had no choice but to look at Old Man An and said through gritted teeth, "Separate the family! Divide out our fourth room! Divide the things that belong to the fourth room. From now on, the life and death of our fourth room has nothing to do with you!"
"
She knew that An Zichen's brothers and sisters-in-law had long been dissatisfied with raising his wife's children, and now it happened that the family separation was as they wanted, and she could also get water to save the two children.
When Liu Mei heard this, her eyes lit up. She met the eyes of the other two sisters-in-law and saw excitement on each other's faces.
Old Man An frowned, "No, the fourth son joined the army, leaving you, mother and son, alone. I can't watch you starve to death of thirst, I must save at least one of you and give it to him!"
The old lady also nodded. Although she felt sorry for the water, her son's inheritance was more important.
Xia Qiyue shook her head, "Dad, please separate us out! Otherwise, let alone the future, the two children will not survive now. Now the sisters-in-law have objections to giving Ke'er water, why not separate us out and give them to Ke'er?"
We shared the water belonging to the fourth room so that I could save the child quickly. The child is dying and I can’t wait any longer!"
After saying that, Xia Qiyue's tears rolled down. This time it was not for acting, but for the two children who were dying and defying death in the room.
My son was fine and finally drank a sip of water, but my daughter couldn't stand it anymore.
