Chapter 10
From afar, many villagers saw this scene. Those who had some sympathy could not help but go forward and hold Second Aunt Ning.
“Hey, you can’t hit a child. What if something happens if you hit her so hard?”
Someone quickly helped Xiaoxiao up. “Child, where did she hit you? Are you alright? Does your head hurt?”
Xiaoxiao covered her face and wanted to get up, but she still shook her head strongly. “I-I’m fine.”
“No, it wasn’t Second Aunt.”
She raised her head and looked at Second Aunt Ning timidly. She bit her lip and said, “I fell myself!”
After saying that, she panicked and packed the bamboo shoots and a small basket. She staggered back to the river and did not even bother to pick up the other bamboo basket containing the river prawns.
What a pitiful little girl who didn’t retaliate…
Second Aunt Ning couldn’t chase after her even if she wanted to. The villagers, who couldn’t take it anymore, were pulling and persuading her.
“Second Aunt, don’t be like this. If you continue to cause trouble, we will report it!”
Look at how arrogant she was. She was beating, scolding, and bullying her niece in front of them. In the past, before they split up, they didn’t know how she dealt with her.
Initially, they thought it was unfilial of the Ning family to kick a fuss about splitting up when the elders were all fine. Now, it seemed that…
Ning Erlang was picking up firewood nearby. After hearing about this from his friends who were running over, he didn’t even want any firewood. He ran towards the area where the accident happened and called her Sister along the way. The villagers who passed by felt sorry for him.
However, when Ning Erlang found Xiaoxiao, she was lying by the river with a lotus leaf covering her face.
Upon hearing the commotion, she lifted her lotus leaf and revealed an unscathed smile.
“Second Brother, what took you so long?”
“Help me dig bamboo shoots!”
Ning Erlang’s tense muscles immediately relaxed, but he was still perplexed about the situation. After confirming that his sister was fine, he walked closer and asked, “Did you meet Second Aunt just now?”
“She hit you?”
Xiaoxiao still said the same thing, but her tone was very different.
She waved her hand. “How could I? I fell myself.”
“However, I even spun half a circle in the air in the middle and added some details. I feel that this performance is a little outstanding. I think Second Aunt will be confused when she sees it.”
It was good that his sister was not at a disadvantage. Ning Erlang heaved a sigh of relief.
As usual, after giving his sister a thumbs up, he remembered to ask, “Why are you digging bamboo shoots?”
Xiaoxiao passed the shovel to him. “Eat.”
“Isn’t this only for pigs?”
Everyone in Fuyuan Village knew that the wild boars on the mountain would eat bamboo shoots.
The villagers would also dig it back and cut it up to feed the pigs at home with other things.
Besides that, very few people used bamboo shoots to make food.
This thing was bitter, astringent, and difficult to chew. His sister wanted to eat this?
He scratched his head awkwardly. “I think steamed buns mixed with chaff aren’t that bad…”
Xiaoxiao glared at him and let him dig without saying anything.
You’re the pig!
Hmph! If you can, don’t eat it after I make it!
Ning Erlang felt his sister was taking it for granted, but he still habitually helped her dig bamboo shoots. He only stopped after he filled a basket with bamboo shoots.contemporary romance
At this moment, Xiaoxiao picked up the bamboo basket buried by the river again.
Ning Erlang sighed and comforted her in advance. “Sister, don’t be sad even if you can’t catch her.”
“When the river rose last time, all the good things in the river were scooped up by the villagers… Eh, there’s so much?”
Xiaoxiao covered his mouth. “Don’t expose what you eat, do you understand?”
