Chapter 7 The Honest Response
Chapter 7 Honest Reaction
Li Qingmei originally thought she would have to spend some time persuading her, but she didn't know it would be so easy, but she suddenly didn't know what to say.
"Really?" she asked uncertainly.
Bai Xi hummed and said, "I'm not a three-year-old child, why would I lie to you?"
Bai An'an listened to the side and murmured in his heart, my aunt is not three years old, but she is only five years old, right?
In fact, Bai Xi also knows why Li Qingmei and Bai An'an are so worried, because he has a criminal record.
To be precise, this matter still needs to be remembered on Huajing’s head.
More than four months ago, Hua Jing knew that two elderly families in the village were sick, and they needed to eat better to supplement their nutrition. So she thought of getting some game on the mountain, but she didn't know that as soon as she walked down the mountain, she was caught from the mountain.
A few people who were hunting in the mountains saw it.
When the group heard that she was going into the mountain, they were immediately frightened. They even coaxed and coaxed them to bring the flower essence back. They were also afraid that she would not give up, so they had people guarding her near her home, as long as she walked back to the mountain.
, and immediately called the adults to bring her back.
This went back and forth several times, and every time Hua Jing went out, she would be caught accurately. She would jump in anger and refuse to eat, which also made her guards watch her even more strictly...
Thinking of what happened before she came, Bai Xi always felt that she had been tricked by the flower essence.
After Bai Xi had eaten, she could see that both Li Qingmei and Bai Anan were worried and didn't want to leave, so they didn't chase them away. By chatting, they quickly found out a lot of things from the two of them.
Combined with what she heard from the person who brought her food before, and the memory left by the flower essence, Bai Xi felt helpless and a little warm.
In this era of scarcity of food and clothing, the people of Niuluo Village took very good care of her, a little freeloader. They even cared for her more than their own children, just because she was in the upper generation.
Bai Xi understood it almost, and yawned to indicate that she was sleeping, and then drove the two worried people away.
After leaving Bai Xi's house, Li Qingmei and Bai An'an were still a little worried. They seemed to have forgotten that they had quarreled a few days ago and started chatting in a tangled manner.
"My aunt is not making trouble, but I am not used to it."
"I'm worried too. Do you think my aunt will go to the back mountain again?"
Bai An'an: "...Probably not. Didn't my aunt just say that she wouldn't go?"
Li Qingmei glanced sideways at him and said, "Do you believe it?"
"I..." Bai Anan shook his head. If my aunt was obedient, then the people in the village would not have a headache.
After all, if your child disobeys, you can beat him, but who dares to disrespect your aunt?
My aunt had to go up the mountain several times before, and no one in the village knew about it. After finally settling down for a while, don't think about it again.
Li Qingmei felt very regretful about this. If she had known better, she would not have said anything more and returned home immediately after delivering the meat. My aunt would not have been thinking about what happened in the back mountain.
Seeing Li Qingmei's face full of regret and worry, Bai Anan quickly comforted her: "It's okay, my aunt might just ask, she won't go to the back mountains."
"I'm still worried. So, Bai An'an, you're here to watch. As for me, I'll take the things back and put them away first. I'll come over and watch with you later. I can't let my aunt run away to the back mountain."
Of course Bai Anan would not refuse, so Li Qingmei ran home without saying a word, swaying the pigtails on her head.
In fact, Li Qingmei and Bai An'an really wronged Bai Xi. She is not that clueless flower essence. The flower essence wants to get food for the villagers and is looked at like a child, so of course she will be angry.
Tiaojiao lost his temper.
Bai Anan and Li Qingmei stayed together for a long time, until it was almost dark, Bai Xi did not come out of the house.
Just kidding, she had eaten meat today, so why should she go to the back mountain in such a hurry? Bai Xi is not stupid. It can be seen from the eyes of Bai An'an and Li Qingmei that they must be worried and will stay nearby.
After eating a meal of meat, I started a vegetarian lifestyle again in the next two days.
In fact, Bai Xi's food is really good in the village. Most others eat sweet potato and multi-grain porridge, or sorghum and wild vegetable porridge. She eats millet porridge, which is vegetables. She also eats at least one egg a day, no matter her age.
Neither those who are younger than her nor those older than her are treated like this.
When Bai Xi came down from the tree house, he was surprised to see Chen Rui.
Chen Rui is ten years old.
At this time, a fourteen-year-old child can work to earn work points, such as picking rice ears, cutting grass, collecting stones, herding cattle in the village, etc. Although a small person does not earn much, he can still do it.
Supplement the family.
As for the little girl who is not yet fourteen years old, she just does housework at home, cutting grass to feed the pigs on her own plot, washing and cooking, taking care of her younger brother, and looking after her younger sister...
Chen Rui has to cut pig grass and collect firewood every day. Bai Xi has seen her passing by several times in the past two days, so he picked it up today.
"Auntie, you got up so early."
Chen Rui was a little surprised when she saw Bai Xi coming out, but she didn't think much about it and greeted her with a smile.
Bai Xi nodded pretending to be old-fashioned, but the petite little person actually looked very cute.
"Why are you going this morning?"
"Auntie, I'm going to cut the pig grass." Chen Rui answered honestly.
Bai Xi already knew this. When he heard this, he pretended to be curious: "Cutting pigweed? Is it fun?"
Chen Rui nodded, but then shook his head: "It's not fun."
"You lied to me!"
"No, no." Chen Rui waved her hands hurriedly: "Auntie, how dare I lie to you? Cutting pigweed is not fun at all, at least not now. It will be fun in autumn when the wild fruits on the mountain are ripe.
, after cutting the pigweed, you can also pick wild fruits to eat, such as wild peaches, wild plums..."
"It's sour, sweet, and delicious." As she said that, Chen Rui swallowed with anticipation in her eyes.
Although Bai Xi was not new to the world, her body was honest and she swallowed her saliva. When she realized what she was doing, she couldn't help but feel ashamed and cursed in her heart. You are a dead flower and you have tricked this fairy fox.
After Chen Rui finished speaking, she smiled sheepishly, greeted Bai Xi, and left with the bamboo basket on her back.
However, she only took a few steps before she turned her head in surprise.
"Auntie, why are you following me?"
Bai Xi said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? Who is following you? I was going to go here."
"Oh." After hearing what she said, Chen Rui didn't think much, said goodbye and moved on.
However, after walking for a while, Chen Rui couldn't ignore Bai Xi, who was walking slowly but still trying to keep up.
Turning around, Chen Rui squatted down and looked at Bai Xi who was slowly approaching. Her young face was full of seriousness: "Auntie, you can't follow me. I'm going to cut pig grass. At this time, there is nothing at the foot of the mountain.
nice one."
