Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 188

Along the way, Xiaohua already stopped crying, but she still refused to let go of Han Yuluo, so Han Yuluo could only hug her. The villagers were shocked to see him return with a child, especially the unmarried girls who liked him. They watched in disbelief as he gently patted the little girl’s back. Who is that little girl?!

When Han Yuluo arrived at Han Yuheng’s house, he knocked on his brother’s bedroom door. Not long after, the door was opened by his niece. Seeing the little girl in his arms, she asked, "Uncle, who is that?"

Han Yuluo knelt down, looked at his niece, and said, "Liling, this is your cousin. His father and your father are paternal cousins."

Hearing his words, she tilted her head as she looked at Xiaohua, and said, "Hello, little cousin. I am your cousin Han Liling. What is your name?"

Xiaohua peeked at her and said in a muffled voice, "My name is Han Lihua. Li as in beautiful and Hua as in flower. My father said that when I was born, I was as beautiful as a spring flower."

"You are so smart. You even know what the meaning of your name is!" Han Liling said in surprise.

Han Yuluo likes Xiaohua because she is smart and polite. But this is natural because her father is an educated youth. Although he only studied for a few years, he studied in the capital city. He is the smartest one in the family.

"Liling, where is your father?" Han Yuluo asked.

"My father hasn’t come back yet. But my mother is inside."

Han Yuluo nodded and entered the room. He leaves the door open and takes the kids with him, so it won’t arouse people’s suspicions.

"Sister-in-law." He greeted Han Yuheng’s wife.

Seeing him coming with a child, Bai Luyun frowned and said, "Second brother, who is that child?"

Han Yuluo sat down on the chair next to the Kang bed and said, "Sister-in-law, this is Han Lihua. Xiaohua, say hello to Auntie."

Xiaohua finally raised her head and whispered, "Hello, Auntie."

Bai Luyun was stunned when she saw her face. She looked at her swollen face with wide eyes and asked, "Second brother, what’s going on? Who is so cruel that he beats a child like this?" _{freewёbn૦νeɭ.com}

"It’s her mother."

"Heavens, how can a mother have the heart to beat her child like this?" Bai Luyun whispered.

Han Yuluo sighed and said, "Sister-in-law, her father is my paternal second uncle’s son. He passed away a few years ago, leaving only one daughter."

After hearing what he said, Bai Luyun asked, "Since her father passed away, shouldn’t she live with her paternal family?"

"As soon as my cousin passed away, my uncle’s wife separated the family. Now she lives with her mother, but her mother..." Han Yuluo sighed again.

Xiaohua said nothing, but she knew that many people hated her because she had no father. If only her father were still alive...

Han Yuluo didn’t know what Xiaohua was thinking and thought she was still sad. He took her to Doctor Xie to treat her wounds. When Doctor Xie saw her swollen face, he said nothing and only applied ointment to her.

He felt her pulse and observed her ears and eyes. After a long time, he looked at Han Yuluo and said solemnly, "You’d better take her to the hospital as soon as possible. Her left ear is injured. If the treatment is delayed, she might have hearing problems in the future."

Hearing his words, Han Yuluo was shocked. His face turned pale as he glanced at Xiaohua. She is a smart child. If she is hearing-impaired, her future will be ruined!

"Thank you, Doctor Xie. I’ll take her to the hospital." After saying that, he paid the fee and left.

After using the ointment, the swelling on Xiaohua’s face was reduced, but the redness turned into deep purple. He quickly returned to Han Yuheng’s house and packed his luggage. After saying that, he went to find Bai Luyun.

"Sister-in-law, I’m going back to the county town. Please help me inform my brother."

"Alright, have a safe journey." Bai Luyun said.

She was used to her brother-in-law coming and leaving whenever he wanted. So she didn’t find anything weird this time. Only Han Liling knew that when her second uncle left, he took Han Lihua with him. But since the matter had nothing to do with her or her family, she didn’t bother telling anyone.
