Chapter 8: going to town

Views:

Miao Cuilan gave a "chi" smile, glanced at her husband with some pride, scooped a spoonful of steamed eggs for Lu Xiaoshu, and said, "Mother's daughter is so good!"

Lu Qi also raised his head from his job, and said, "Second sister is really good, I wanted to beat Xiaoyu a long time ago, she always bullies eldest sister! I am a man and I am too embarrassed to do it."

Lu Zhong looked very helpless, his wife is a master who will not be bullied, and his son is also a skinny, this picked up daughter is quite qualified to pass on the legacy of his wife, such a small person has already shown his innocence in every way. It's so annoying, it's really—it's not that the whole family doesn't come into the house!

"Go!" Miao Cuilan glared at her son, and said angrily, "You are a scholar, and a scholar must be gentle, like your little uncle, who will give mother an exam for a scholar or something when you come back, don't give me a hard time Hit, hit, how did Mr. Wu teach you? Did he teach you to hit people?"

Lu Zhong nodded when he heard the words, and was about to add, "Did you hear what your mother said?"

Unexpectedly, Miao Cuilan followed up and said: "You have to reason with people first, and then fight if you can't reason!"

Lu Zhong almost bit his tongue when he heard his wife say again: "Did you hear what I said?"

Then the son nodded in a very taught way: "I heard, mother!" Obviously, Lu Qi very much agreed with the sentence "If you don't make sense, hit me again".

Lu Xiaoshu also thought so, and echoed: "I heard that too, mother!"

"And me." Xiaoxue didn't really understand, but seeing her elder brother and second younger sister saying that, she naturally couldn't hold back.

"So good!" Miao Cuilan was satisfied, "Hurry up and eat, I can clean up after eating!"

Lu Zhong felt powerless to look up to the sky, so he ate silently and stopped talking. Anyway, it's useless to talk too much, it's better for him to be more sensible.

Who knows, the next day Xiaoyu ran over to play alone again, Lu Xiaoshu and Xiaoxue were lying in the grass and playing with the dog's tail grass, while Xiaoyu stood by and watched.

Seeing Lu Xiaoshu and Xiaoxue get up, she rushed over suddenly, grabbed Lu Xiaoshu's arm with both hands and bit her mouth.

The stinky girl sneak attack! Lu Xiaoshu was startled, and without looking at her, he opened his other hand and pushed hard towards her face, just pressing her eyes and nose. Xiaoyu couldn't see her eyes immediately, and she couldn't breathe freely through her nose, so she felt flustered, her movements slowed down, and she clapped her hands loosely. Lu Xiaoshu stretched out his arm and raised his hand, immediately grabbed her hair and pulled it down forcefully, Xiaoyu was in pain, "Wow" burst into tears again!

Lu Xiaoshu was furious, thinking that if you can't suffer, only others can suffer from you, right? You fucking thought you were the princess, the emperor, the heavenly king, Lao Tzu! Hmph, needless to say, you, a bratty brat like you, would never have thought of taking revenge on my sister, it must be the idea of your shameless mother! Why are you two so poor

"Ouch, what's going on here!" Mrs. Li was obviously waiting outside, and she was shocked when she heard her daughter crying miserably again, and hurried in.

With her on his back, Lu Xiaoshu quickly bit his teeth a few times on his wrist, and cried "Wow" louder than Xiaoyu.

When Xiaoyu rushed over to grab Lu Xiaoshu's arm and was about to bite, Xiaoxue was startled, and the series of changes that followed caught her off guard. Seeing her second sister crying again, she started crying too.

"What's going on! What's going on!" Miao Cuilan hurried out of the room.

"Look at your wild girl!" Mrs. Li roared angrily as she looked at her daughter's messed up hair.

"Mom! My hand hurts!" Lu Xiaoshu rushed over to throw herself on Miao Cuilan, and showed her her small hands that looked like lotus root joints, crying so much that she felt aggrieved.

As soon as Miao Cuilan lowered her head, she saw the tooth marks on her daughter's wrist. Although it was shallow, it was also a tooth mark! She couldn't help feeling distressed, and said angrily, "Sister-in-law Li, don't talk too much about my Xiao Shu, who also has tooth marks on her wrist! What can Sister Li say! Xiaoyu is two years older than my Xiao Shu!"

Mrs. Li couldn't help feeling a little guilty when she heard this. Her daughter is two years older than Lu Xiaoshu. Lu Xiaoshu's bite yesterday was so deep, it must be that her daughter's bite will only make it deeper. How could she have the nerve to go and see? Thinking about it this way and comparing it twice, my heart became much more balanced, and I felt that I had finally let out a bad breath, even if my daughter's hair was scratched, it would be a trivial matter. Then he made a gesture and patted his daughter's butt lightly twice and said in a bad mood: "What a fool, I just ran around in a wrong eye! Don't play together when you fight all day long! Come on, go home with me, and see if I don't teach you a lesson !" After saying that, he hurriedly said hello to Miao Cuilan, took Xiaoyu and left.

In fact, Xiaoyu didn't take advantage of it at all, her face hurts, her hair roots hurt, and she was scolded by her mother again—how can a child know what to pretend and what to do? To be scolded is to be scolded! I couldn't help being wronged and cried even more sadly, sobbing and asking my mother to drag me away.

Finally, when she got home, Aunt Li helped her daughter comb her hair again, wiped her face clean and comforted her, and asked her quite proudly whether the bite of Lu Xiaoshu was big or not, and did she use any force? Xiaoyu was startled, and said blankly: "I didn't, I didn't bite her."

"Didn't bite her?" Aunt Li was taken aback, and asked, "Why didn't you bite her even if she bit you? If you didn't bite back, she would bully you! Oh no, you didn't bite her teeth on her arm How did you get the seal?" Miao Cuilan would not open her eyes and tell nonsense, Aunt Li believed that.

Xiaoyu was also stunned, how did she know how Lu Xiaoshu got the teeth marks on Lu Xiaoshu's arm!

Under her mother's persecution, Xiaoyu couldn't bear it any longer, so she nodded and said she would bite again. In fact, whether she bit it or not, she remembered it very clearly at first, but now, she also told her mother that she was confused!

Mrs. Li was immediately discouraged, and if she said such nonsense to her daughter, it must be useless even if she bit her!

"It doesn't matter, next time you catch the opportunity, you can bite back! Hmph, she is only over one year old, and you are three years old, you are still afraid of her!" Aunt Li said angrily.

After hearing this, Xiaoyu's eyes were obviously full of timidity and fear, and her little face turned slightly pale. Dare to bite her? She didn't dare, she really didn't dare again! Not to mention Lu Xiaoshu, even Lu Xiaoxue, she didn't dare to bully her anymore.

"She, she is so fierce..." Xiaoyu said in a low voice.

"Nothing!" Mrs. Li couldn't help being annoyed when she saw that her daughter was spoiled by others, and her heart softened when she saw that her daughter was pitifully about to cry after hearing this. up.

Tomorrow is another market day, and this is Lu Qi's first market day after going to school. Seeing the inseparable little sisters, Lu Zhong and Miao Cuilan are a little bit troubled.

It is obviously not safe to keep these two little guys at home.

"Father, mother! How about I ask Mr. Wu for leave tomorrow and take care of my eldest and second sister at home!" Lu Qi volunteered.

"You're dreaming! Go to school obediently!" Miao Cuilan glared at him without any room for negotiation, snuffing out the little flame in his heart that was eager to try.

"Forget it! Take Xiaoxue and Xiaoshu with you tomorrow! Why don't you put them somewhere!" Miao Cuilan sighed to her husband.

Lu Zhong nodded: "Okay, the sisters are grown up too, just let them play by themselves!"

Lu Xiaoshu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he ran over and hugged his mother's thigh happily and said happily: "Mother, will mother take me and my sister to the market tomorrow?"

It's been a long time since I've been to a crowded place, Lu Xiaoshu is really excited! Sure enough, there is happiness in comparison.

"Well," Miao Cuilan bent down, picked her up and hugged her in her arms, tugged at her clothes and said, "There are a lot of people in the town, so you should obediently follow your parents with your sister, and don't wander around. Do you know if you run away? It will be bad if someone kidnaps you!"

"En, um!" Lu Xiaoshu nodded happily. Although she is skinny, she still understands the truth. Whether modern or ancient, a little person like her is the most favored target of human traffickers, not to mention she is so cute and beautiful, she dare not take this risk.

Lu Xiaoxue was still a little ignorant, and asked, "Mother, what is a kidnapper?"

"The abductee is just taking you away from a distance, and you will never go home again, and you will never see your parents and elder brother and second sister! You also have to be good and stay with your parents, you know?" Miao Cuilan said.

Lu Xiaoxue was horrified, her little face changed slightly, and she nodded in agreement.

"I have to get up early at dawn tomorrow! Go to sleep!" Lu Zhong smiled.

"That's right!" Miao Cuilan also nodded, and asked her husband to fetch hot water to wash the two little dolls and stuff them into the bed. Seeing that Lu Xiaoshu was still walking around with big black eyes open, she immediately Angrily said: "Close your eyes and go to bed quickly! If you can't get up tomorrow morning, I won't take you there!"

Lu Xiaoxue hurriedly closed her eyes obediently, Lu Xiaoshu felt amused: Mother treats me like a child! He also closed his eyes obediently.

Now that Lu Qi had gone to school, he no longer crowded on the kang, but had his own room.

Miao Cuilan explained to him that she would get up in the morning to eat pancakes by herself, and eat hot rice by herself at noon. She took two salted duck eggs and told him to steam the rice by herself, and told him not to forget to lock the door when she went out, so she also drove him back to the room to rest. .

Here, the husband and wife prepared all the things they would bring tomorrow overnight. In addition to packing a total of more than 150 catties of yuba and dried tofu, another layer of straw, one layer of eggs, and duck eggs were packed in small bamboo baskets. Eggs, there are several hens laying eggs at home, and there are seven ducks specially raised for laying eggs. The family can't eat so many, so tomorrow I will pack some and sell them in the town.
