Chapter 959: Chapter 959: Little Chang Qing and Little Qiaoqiao (Part 2) Then he was thrown into the woodshed and left with a smug smile. The next morning, he was still driven out into the mountains to collect firewood. Even though there was already a mountain of firewood piled up at home. When he returned, as expected, no food had been saved for him. But he no longer cared. Because he knew, these people would all die tomorrow. He had it all planned out. Just waiting for the north wind to rise tomorrow. A lot of the firewood he had been gathering recently were pine saplings. These are branches containing oil, which can be ignited with just one match and will burn fiercely, as intensely as gasoline. He had already set those pine saplings aside. Based on the recent weather and forecasts, he knew there would be a strong wind tomorrow night. He would use dry wood and saplings to surround the three thatched huts completely. The only exit from the house was the door. Because of the winter chill, the two windows had been sealed shut. He was already living in the outside woodshed, so he could easily block the main house door from outside. Then he would set the dry wood and saplings around the house on fire. According to his observation, the wind would be the strongest after midnight tomorrow, when the people of Stone Town would be sound asleep. And because it’s the north wind, plus there’s a vacant lot and a fence wall separating them from the Gu Family, they wouldn’t be affected in the slightest. Moreover, there’s a river directly behind them, with no neighboring houses, so when the fire breaks out, apart from burning to death those he hates most in this life, it wouldn’t affect the nearby neighbors. The only people in this world who wronged him were this family. Everyone else treated him with kindness. After perfecting all the details, he slept peacefully for the first time. The next day, because of the chilblains on his hands, he accidentally broke a bowl while washing dishes, and unsurprisingly, he was beaten again. He didn’t know what was wrong with this woman; she actually beat him from inside the house to outside. This was the first time he got beaten in the yard. Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs NoveI(F)ire.net Usually, when his stepmother hit him, it was either in the main house or the woodshed. Since they had just moved in, the woman temporarily didn’t want others to know. And all he could do was cover his head. He couldn’t let this woman beat him senseless, because he still had big plans for tonight. But what he didn’t expect was that at this very moment, while all the adults were powerless against the shrew of a stepmother, a small, lively figure agilely leaped over the fence and jumped into the Chang Family’s yard. At that moment, he was shielding his face with his arm, but through the gap, he still saw the little girl in the pink cotton jacket. A pink bow was tied on her dark braid. She flew toward him like a little fairy. Her petite face was full of anger. Facing the shrew of a stepmother, rough as a rolling pin, she showed no fear at all. The little girl’s eyes were bright and clear. As if aflame with fire. She surprisingly snatched the stick from the stepmother’s hand. Then she pulled him up to shield him behind her. The little girl’s verbal skills were formidable, and she began to scold rapidly. Even though the little girl argued logically and convincingly, she was still reduced to tears by the stepmother, who pointed at her nose and scolded back. Yet she didn’t back down, stubbornly standing firm in front of him. At that moment, her small figure was like a towering mountain. Tightly protecting him. Later, hearing the commotion, Grandpa Gu and Uncle Gu also came to the Chang Family.
