The arrogant little husband is desperately flirting with the hunter

Chu Xiao walked closer to take a look. The little baby didn't cry or make a fuss. He even looked at the snow with curiosity. He even stretched out a little hand that was red from the cold and wanted to reach it, but his arm was too short to reach it.

The wolf cub continued to growl at the baby in the backpack. Chu Xiao kicked it and said, "That's all you can do."

Seeing the dead branches piled next to the backpack, these should be the little kids from the village, who were brought up the mountain by their adults to collect firewood.

I don’t know who it belongs to, but they actually brought it up the mountain in such cold weather.

Chu Xiao squatted down and asked the little baby: "Can you speak? Whose baby are you from?"

The little kid didn't say anything, and there was no expression on his face. He just looked at Chu Xiao straight.

"You still can't speak?" Chu Xiao took out a crystal fruit from the space and handed it to him: "This is for you to eat."

The little baby didn't pick up the phone or move. If his eyes hadn't been blinking, Chu Xiao would have almost suspected that the child was a fake.

At this time, Taxue called twice, and the little baby moved his gaze towards Taxue and stretched out his little hand to reach it.

At this moment, a young man wrapped tightly in a bag hurried over, but his running posture looked a little awkward, probably because his legs and feet were not in good condition.

When he was almost there, he fell down, and the dead branches in his hand fell to the ground.

However, he ignored the firewood he had collected with great effort, and instead limped over quickly.

"Who are you?" He picked up the child in the basket, his eyes full of caution.

Chu Xiao stood up and smiled at the young man: "I am Chu Xiao, the husband of Yan the Hunter at the foot of the mountain. Are you also from Anning Village?"

The Yan family lived far away and seldom went into the village. The vague impression of the villagers was based on Chu Xiaoxiao's memory, but he was too lazy to recall it, and the man was wrapped tightly, so he couldn't match him up for the time being.

Gu Wanlin slowly took two steps back. He was not looking at Chu Xiao at this moment, but the tall Taxue. He himself was a little afraid of dogs, especially this big dog.

Just now, the only thing on my mind was the child, and I didn't pay attention to anything else for a moment. But now, a look of fear began to appear on my face.

Chu Xiao noticed his gaze and touched Taxue's head, "Taxue, lie down."

Taxue obediently lay on the ground, and Chu Xiao continued to look at Gu Wanlin: "I scared you, sorry."

Gu Wanlin shook his head, his voice dry and hoarse: "I, I am the husband of Li Qing from the east of the village."

Chu Xiao: “?” Who is that?

Perhaps because not many people knew this name, he explained: "It's Li Guaizi."

Chu Xiao frowned slightly. This man was Li Guaizi's husband. Last time, Li Guaizi seemed to have said that his name was...

"Brother Lin?" Chu Xiao remembered that this should be his name.

Gu Wanlin nodded.

Chu Xiao looked at his standing posture and saw that one of his legs seemed to be hesitant to use force, so he asked, "Are you injured?"

Lin Ge'er's eyes subconsciously dodged: "No, I just fell down, it's nothing."

The weather was too cold. Although Brother Lin wrapped himself tightly, his coat was not very thick. His hands, which were holding the child, had frostbite and some bruises.

I heard Wang Wu say last time that this man was always beaten by Li Guaizi, so it seems to be true.

He remembered the longevity lock in his purse that Li Guaizi had pawned last time, and it should belong to this little kid.

He rummaged in his pocket and took out the longevity lock from his purse: "This is yours, Li Guaizi mortgaged it to me."

Brother Lin slowly took two steps closer, saw what he was holding clearly, and nodded, "It belongs to my child. His father bought it when he was born, and it was snatched away by Li Guaizi a few days ago."

As he spoke, his eyes turned red and tears as big as beans fell from them.

"Then I'll give it back to you." Chu Xiao is not a good person, but he is definitely not completely selfish. He will fight back against those who provoke him, but he will not bully those who are vulnerable.

This longevity lock is useless to him and is not worth much money, so he might as well return it to them. If Li Guaizi comes to exchange it, he can just say it was lost.

Lin Ge'er hesitated for a long time and finally shook his head: "If you return it to me, Li Guaizi will snatch it away again."

Chu Xiao: "You won't resist?"

"I..." Brother Lin was speechless for a moment. He wanted to resist, but every time he resisted, Li Guaizi would direct his attack at the child. He was so young, how could he withstand Li Guaizi's punches and kicks.

He also thought about running away, but where could he go now? As a little boy, he didn't have a house to shelter him from the wind and rain, and he couldn't feed and clothe his child. He could only endure it for now and hope that his child would grow up quickly.

Chu Xiao couldn't empathize with them, but he understood everyone's choice.

Looking at the baby in his arms, he took out two crystal fruits from his pocket and put them into the backpack: "This is for the child to eat. Are you really not going to take this longevity lock back?"

Brother Lin shook his head and said in a hoarse voice: "I will come back to exchange with you when I have money in the future."

It is impossible now in winter, but maybe he can go to the mountains to pick some wild vegetables to sell in the spring and secretly save some money. If possible, after saving money for a few years and his children grow up, he can find a deserted place to build a thatched hut. Maybe this is also a way to make a living.

After all, who doesn’t want to live? It would be even better if you could live without being beaten or hungry.

He really couldn't go back to his mother's home. Every time, he would be chased out by his sister-in-law before he could see his mother, and when he came back, Li Guaizi would beat him even more severely.

He has now accepted his fate and only hopes that Xiaobao can grow up well.

Chu Xiao looked at the child with his eyes wide open and not crying or making any noise, and now he realized that the child was either mentally retarded or autistic, otherwise it would be impossible for him to not make any sound for such a long time.

Brother Lin now places his hope of survival on this little baby, and he is afraid he will be disappointed.

Chu Xiao sighed and said, "I have a lot of crystal fruits here. If the little kid needs them, you can go to the Yan family to find me."

Brother Lin looked at him, wiped his tears and nodded, "Thank you, Brother Xiao."

Chu Xiao didn't stay any longer and walked back with Taxue and the wolf cub. Lin Ge'er didn't kneel on the ground holding the child in pain until he could no longer see him.

"Xiaobao, Xiaobao." Perhaps he also knew that his child was different, but he really couldn't accept it.

When Chu Xiao returned to Yan Zhenshen, Yan Zhenshen had already cut down several trees. Seeing him coming back, he asked, "Are you cold?"

"I'm holding the hot water bottle." Chu Xiao sat on a felled tree, looking thoughtful.

Yan Zhenshen frowned slightly, not knowing what was wrong with her husband, but seeing that he was in a bad mood, she asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Chu Xiao looked up: "Just now I saw Li Guaizi's husband over there. He was collecting firewood with his child."

"so what?"

Chu Xiao raised his eyebrows: "I feel like hitting someone."
