Chapter 1042: Burning hot

Hospital

Banggeng ran out of the restroom crying: "Mom! My butt hurts! My butt is broken!"

After taking the medicine and squatting in the restroom, that moment felt like agony.

His chrysanthemum felt like it was being burned by fire and sliced by knives, instantly reminding him of the "good times" at the juvenile detention center.

Qin Huairu stroked Banggeng's head, her heart aching: "Don't cry, don't cry! It's alright! You'll be fine after a while once the medicine kicks in."

Banggeng shed bitter tears and said viciously: "It's all Cao Weiguo's fault for poisoning me! I want Grandma to scratch him to death!"

Sha Zhuzi chimed in from the side: "Banggeng is right! Cao Weiguo is too evil! Not only do we need to fix him, but we also need to make him pay the medical bills."

Qin Huairu grabbed Banggeng's ear: "Banggeng, are you really stupid or just pretending? Don't you have any idea where that sausage came from? If you don't want to go back to the juvenile detention center, you better let this matter rot in your stomach. Don't tell anyone, including your grandma. If your grandma asks what happened, just say you drank cold water and upset your stomach. You are not allowed to mention the sausage or Cao Weiguo."

Banggeng said, full of resentment: "Why! It was clearly Cao Weiguo who poisoned my stomach! Ouch! Mom! My ear is coming off!"

Qin Huairu said angrily: "Can you not understand human speech? If you hadn't stolen the sausage from Cao Weiguo's windowsill, would you have upset your stomach? If this gets out, Cao Weiguo will be fine, but you will be a thief. Do you want to go to the juvenile detention center again?"

Juvenile detention center?

Although that place provided food and shelter, he would rather die than go back in.

Banggeng shook his head: "No! I don't want to go to the juvenile detention center!"

Qin Huairu said sternly: "Then be obedient. You are not allowed to tell anyone about this. If Cao Weiguo looks for the sausage in the courtyard, you must keep your mouth shut. Even if you're beaten to death, you must not admit it."

Banggeng was unwilling, but he had no choice but to obey.

Although he liked to steal, he wasn't a fool after all.

Banggeng made a mournful face: "Mom, I know! I won't say anything! Let go quickly! My ear is about to fall off!"

Qin Huairu let go, frustrated by his lack of improvement. Banggeng retreated, clutching his burning hot chrysanthemum.

Sha Zhuzi said indignantly: "Qin Jie! What are you afraid of? It's clearly that bad seed Cao Weiguo who harmed Banggeng! We have to settle the score with Cao Weiguo."

Qin Huairu looked at Sha Zhuzi with disdain: "Zhuzi! What is in your head? Didn't you hear what I said to Banggeng? You two are really alike! Neither of you has a brain! Banggeng upset his stomach, but the thing he ate was stolen from Cao Weiguo's house! If this blows up, Cao Weiguo will definitely go to the police station, and Banggeng will be the one to suffer. Do you want Banggeng to go to the juvenile detention center?"

Sha Zhuzi chuckled foolishly: "I treat Banggeng just like my own child; why would I want Banggeng to go to the juvenile detention center?"

Banggeng kicked Sha Zhuzi's calf: "Who is your child! You big fool! You big coward!"

Sha Zhuzi widened his eyes in anger: "Banggeng, how can you say that? You are too ungrateful! Have you forgotten all the good things I gave you!"

Banggeng held his head high: "What did you give me! I took those myself!"

Qin Huairu scolded with a cold face: "Banggeng, you are not allowed to talk to your Uncle He like that. Your Uncle Sha is so good to you; you cannot be ungrateful. There are no white-eyed wolves in our family."

After disciplining the ignorant Banggeng, Qin Huairu turned to comfort Sha Zhuzi: "Zhuzi! Banggeng is still a child, don't hold it against him. I'll discipline him when we get back."

Sha Zhuzi's expression was ugly: "I won't hold it against him. Qin Jie, the medical bills are paid, let's go back."

Qin Huairu glared at Banggeng: "Let's go! You useless thing! See if you dare to randomly take and eat other people's things again!"

Banggeng clutched his butt, limping as he followed them out, muttering as he walked: "Cao Weiguo, you just wait! I'm not done with you! I will definitely steal your house clean."

"Qin Huairu! Sha Zhuzi! It really is you two!"

Banggeng was just muttering in his heart about how to take revenge on Cao Weiguo when he suddenly heard Cao Weiguo's voice.

Turning his head, he saw the man he hated to the bone walking over with a smile on his face.

Sha Zhuzi said with a dark face: "Bad luck! I run into you everywhere."

Qin Huairu said awkwardly: "Banggeng isn't feeling well, so I brought him to the hospital to get checked out."

Cao Weiguo looked at Banggeng, whose face was pale and mouth red and swollen, and asked with concern: "What's wrong with Banggeng? What illness does he have? Is it serious? Is there still hope?"

Qin Huairu smiled: "It's not serious, not serious at all. Just an upset stomach, he'll be fine after taking some medicine."

Cao Weiguo smiled: "Oh! Just an upset stomach! That's great! Banggeng is so promising! If he were to pass away early like his father, that would be such a pity. You must take better care of Banggeng in the future, pay attention to his diet, and don't let him upset his stomach again."

Qin Huairu smiled awkwardly: "I know! I will pay attention in the future."

Banggeng stared at Cao Weiguo with eyes full of hatred, one hand clutching his butt and the other clenching his fist, wishing he could rush over and fight Cao Weiguo.

It was all this hateful guy's fault that he suffered so much.

You say you want to make sausage, so make sausage, why make it so spicy?

But even though that sausage was spicy, it was really delicious, and he still wanted to eat it.

Ouch, no!

His mouth hurts! His chrysanthemum hurts too!

It was just eating a little sausage!

Why does it hurt at both ends?

Cao Weiguo ignored Banggeng's hateful gaze and chatted with Qin Huairu with a smile.

Qin Huairu didn't want to talk more about this matter, so she had to change the subject: "What are you doing at the hospital?"

Cao Weiguo said: "It's the weekend, so I have time to accompany Yulan for a check-up."

Upon hearing this, Qin Huairu felt jealous.

When she was pregnant, Jia Dongxu didn't care about her at all, and Jia Zhangshi even ordered her to wash clothes and cook.

Look at Song Yulan; after she got pregnant, Cao Weiguo took meticulous care of her, holding her in his hands for fear she might break, keeping her in his mouth for fear she might melt... We are both human, why is the gap so big!

Banggeng pulled Qin Huairu's arm: "Mom! My stomach is uncomfortable!"

Qin Huairu came back to her senses and said: "Weiguo! Banggeng isn't feeling well, so I have to take him home to rest. I won't chat with you anymore."

Cao Weiguo said with a smile: "Then hurry and let Banggeng go back to rest. Look at Banggeng's pale face, it must be a lack of nutrition. Sha Zhuzi is here too, let Sha Zhuzi stew a chicken for Banggeng to nourish him. Sha Zhuzi's cooking is good, the stewed chicken is fragrant and nourishing, Banggeng will be full of energy after eating it."

Sha Zhuzi's face turned black upon hearing this. Stew a chicken? He couldn't even bear to eat it himself!

Banggeng's eyes turned green when he heard about eating chicken: "Uncle Sha, I want to eat chicken!"

Sha Zhuzi pulled a long face: "Eat! Eat! I'll go buy it for you at the market on the way."

He thought to himself: If it weren't for your mother's sake, even the chicken butt wouldn't be for this little brat to eat!

In the past, when Banggeng brought Xiaodang and Huaihua into the room to steal food, he would pretend not to know, and even if he saw it, he wouldn't stop them, all to get closer to the three children and thereby win Qin Huairu's favor.

But what was the result?

This little brat actually called him a big fool! A big coward!

It was simply the rhythm of making him die of anger!

However, with Qin Huairu standing right next to him, he was too embarrassed to act out.

But deep down, he felt disgust toward Banggeng.

Not acting out now was just because the time hadn't come!

On the way home from the hospital, Sha Zhuzi kept his word and painfully bought a free-range chicken.

Qin Huairu beamed with joy and flattered him, bringing a smile back to Sha Zhuzi's long face.

Banggeng clutched his butt with one hand and his stomach with the other, his eyes staring greedily at the chicken.

Before he could even eat the chicken after getting home, Banggeng fainted in the restroom from the pain.

Once the ghost pepper took effect, even Banggeng, the "Saint of Thieves," couldn't handle it.

If there hadn't been someone in the public restroom at the time, Banggeng would have likely fallen into the pit. ===== CHAPTER 1044 =====
