The little village girl dressed as a disaster star led the whole village astray

Li Xi took Dong Fengxia to the private school. On the way, they saw a stall selling roast chicken and stopped to buy a roast chicken.

"Buy a roast chicken and bring it to the private school as a snack for Shuwen and the others."

Although private schools provide meals, most of the students who actually eat there come from ordinary families, while those from wealthy families have their meals delivered to them. Therefore, although the meals in private schools are filling, there is definitely not much oil and fat.

Dong Fengxia waited for her to finish, then looked at the chicken in her hand with a pained look on her face, "Why did you buy this? There is food in the private school."

If you don't run the household, you don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are, but she doesn't know it when she sees Daya, the head of the household.

"The food in the private school is just enough to fill you up, there's not much oil in it. Shuwen and the others are still young, so they need a balanced diet."

Dong Fengxia didn't know anything about nutrition or balance. She just knew that the money she spent on roast chicken was enough for her to buy two live chickens.

"The food in the private school is already good enough. If it were in our village, they would eat worse than the private school."

In Dong Fengxia's opinion, her son who was studying in a private school was living a very good life. He was protected from the wind, rain and sun, and someone provided him with food and drink. All he had to do was study.

Li Xi didn't argue with her on this issue, "I've already bought it."

Dong Fengxia choked when she heard that they had already bought it. "Girl, just buy it and there is no need to add any extra food to them. You can take it back later and eat it with Hu Zi.

This chicken is enough for you to have two meals."

"Okay, okay." Li Xi responded quickly, turned around to call the two children out, and took out the roast chicken.

"You haven't eaten yet, find a place to sit first. You are in for a treat today. Look what I brought you!"

"Thump, thump, thump." Li Xi opened the oil paper bag.

Hu Zi and Li Shuwen glanced at each other and said in unison, "Roast chicken!"

Dong Fengxia: “…”

She didn't hear a word she said just now. Dong Fengxia gave her an unpleasant look, feeling bloated inside. She was kind to the siblings because of their father and her husband, and also because she felt pity for them as they were lonely and helpless.

She never thought about what they would give in return, but when she saw her usually steady little son's eyes light up when he saw the roast chicken, her heart couldn't help but soften.

Daya is a good child who knows how to repay kindness, and she is not the ungrateful person that others say she is!

Because of Tiezhu, their family is closer to Daya's family. She has spoken up for the siblings in the village before. She knows that many people in the village say they are stupid behind their backs.

It’s time to let them open their eyes and see what a good child Daya is.

Dong Fengxia looked at Li Xi with loving eyes. Li Xi tilted his head and noticed her gaze, then avoided her sight uncomfortably.

Hu Zi took them to sit on the stools next to the stone table in the front yard.

"Okay, you guys sit down first, I'll go take a look at the back." After Li Xi finished speaking, he stood up and walked back.

Not long after, Li Xi came back with a tray with four servings of rice and two side dishes, one was stir-fried cabbage and the other was stewed sweet potato.

"Where did you get this?" Dong Fengxia saw her coming back with a bunch of things and hurriedly got up to meet her.

Li Xi put the things on the table and sat down. "I bought it in the kitchen."

It's impossible for the four of them to eat just one roast chicken.

"You," Dong Fengxia couldn't help but glared at her, "Your money is all blown by the wind, you don't know how to save at all, Huzi still has to go to school, your life in the future will be miserable!"

Li Xi smiled and said, "It hasn't come to that point yet. It's just this time. We are usually very frugal."

Upon hearing this, Hu Zi looked up at Li Xi with an obedient expression.

"It would be better this way." Dong Fengxia obviously didn't believe what she said.

Li Xi subconsciously rubbed her nose with her hand, "Eat quickly, or it will get cold soon."

As she said this, she stood up and set the table. When she bought the roast chicken, she had it unpacked for convenience. Now she can just spread it out on the table. It's very convenient for you.

"Aunt Fengxia, you eat first." Li Xi said as he put a big chicken leg into her bowl.

Dong Fengxia looked at the chicken drumstick in the bowl and felt relieved, but she didn't eat it. Instead, she gave it to Hu Zi, "I don't like chicken drumsticks, give it to Hu Zi."

Li Xi: “…”

Is this a common tactic used by parents?

Hu Zi was stunned for a moment when he saw the chicken leg suddenly appear in the bowl, then looked up at Li Xi.

"Huzi, don't look at your sister. This is what your auntie gave you. Eat it! Only by eating the chicken leg can you grow up quickly so that you can protect your sister." Dong Fengxia said with a sluggish breath, "Your sister has worked hard for you. If it weren't for you, your sister..."

Li Xi frowned slightly when she heard this and interrupted her, "Huzi, since it's given to you by your aunt, eat it quickly."

"Here, there is a chicken leg here. Give it to Shuwen." Li Xi picked up the remaining chicken leg and gave it to Li Shuwen.

She didn't like listening to what Aunt Fengxia said, or the moral blackmail. All of this was within her tolerance range, and she didn't think it was difficult. In fact, it was quite easy.

Li Shuwen looked at the chicken leg in the bowl and swallowed subconsciously. He knew that it was not easy for his family to go to school. All the money in the family was used for his schooling, and there was not much meat in the family all year round.

Li Xi looked at Shuwen and felt that this child was both well-behaved and lovable. Just by listening to how skillfully Aunt Fengxia had said that, she knew that she must have said it a lot at home.

There is always a type of parents who use the unhappiness in life and their own efforts to exploit and kidnap their children. It’s not that they don’t love their children, but they just don’t know how to love.

Children who live in this environment for a long time will have problems.

"Shuwen, try it quickly. This is specially prepared for you by your elder sister. Huzi is benefiting from your kindness today."

Li Shuwen's eyes lit up, "Invite me?"

"That's right. I'm inviting you, little Li Shuwen. I heard from Hu Zi that you helped him a lot in the private school. This roast chicken is a reward for the helpful little Li Shuwen." Li Xi said with a smile.

This is not false. Li Shuwen is indeed a serious and obedient child. When Hu Zi first entered the private school, I was afraid that he would be scared because he was unfamiliar with the school, so I specially found Li Shuwen to look after Hu Zi and help him integrate into the private school.

He agreed and did it. In the first few days when Hu Zi entered the private school, he talked every day about how Brother Shuwen helped him today and how he helped him with other things.

"Shuwen is my brother. This is what he should do. There is nothing to thank him for." Dong Fengxia felt that Li Xi was too polite.

Li Shuwen's eyes, which had been bright just now, suddenly dimmed, and he pursed his lips without saying a word.

Li Xi: “…”

Aunt Fengxia is indeed a nice person, but what this parent did is really infuriating.

Li Xi understands that the Chinese nation has always been humble since ancient times and never brags about their family members to outsiders. Even if others praise them, they will show their humility by belittling them.

It can be seen from some of the titles, such as my humble wife, my son, my wife, my humble home, and I, etc.

Li Xi understood why they did this, but did not agree with it.

"Nothing should be done. If you do it, you will be rewarded." Li Xi picked up another chicken wing and put it in Li Shuwen's bowl. "Shuwen, eat it quickly. If you don't eat it, it will get cold."

"Yeah." Li Shuwen's voice was a little choked. He lowered his head to hide his red eyes. He didn't know why he suddenly wanted to cry.

Dong Fengxia was not someone who could not read the expressions on her face. She could tell that Daya disagreed with what she had just said, but she didn't think there was anything wrong with what she said.

After dinner, Hu Zi and Li Shuwen were going to take a nap, and Li Xi and Dong Fengxia were also leaving.

"Okay, don't send me off. I know the way back. It's too troublesome to send me back and forth." Dong Fengxia refused Li Xi's offer to send her off.

Li Xi did not force it, and took out an oil paper bag and handed it to her, "There is tea in it, Aunt Fengxia, take it back and let Uncle Changqing and Brother Shubin taste it."

Dong Fengxia felt the weight in her hand and said, "Why is there so much? They have never drunk tea before. This is a waste. You can take some back and leave a little."

"What's the point of more? Not much. If Uncle Changqing and the others like it, I'll bring some more next time I go back." Li Xi said with a smile.

"No, no, they just need something to drink to try. Besides, you gave them so much in this bag, and we don't know when they will finish it. Next time you go back, just go with you, and don't bring anything with you." Dong Fengxia emphasized.

"Yes, yes. I'll listen to Aunt Fengxia." Li Xi looked obedient.

Dong Fengxia, who had already seen through her true face, said: It just sounds perfunctory.

After Dong Fengxia left, Li Xi strolled around the market again, bought some things and then slowly went home.

After returning home, Li Xi put her things in order and then went straight to the pharmacy. Although she knew a lot of prescriptions, many medicinal materials were not available. She could only try to use other medicinal materials as substitutes.

This requires multiple attempts and the dosage needs to be adjusted, which is not easy overall.

Li Xi forgot the time as soon as she entered the pharmacy. She only came out when Hu Zi knocked on the door.

Hu Zi glanced at the dark kitchen, put the small schoolbag Li Xi made for him into the house, skillfully took Li Xi's hand, and went out to eat together.

Li Xi used to cook in the kitchen occasionally, but she hasn't cooked since the pharmacy was built.

After having a quick meal outside, Li Xi and Hu Zi went home.

After returning home, Li Xi took Hu Zi's hand and walked into the main room and sat down. "Hu Zi, I have something to ask you."

Hu Zi climbed onto the stool opposite Li Xi and sat down, "Okay, you ask, sister."

"Do you know any young master from the county lieutenant's family?"

She is not afraid of trouble, but she always has to know what is going on.

"I know him." Hu Zi nodded. "He is my classmate, Feng Tianyou."

"Feng Tianyou, what is your relationship with Feng Tianyou like?"

"Not bad." Hu Zi didn't understand why his sister asked this, but he still told the truth, "He used to be the first in the private school, and then after I went there, I became the first.

He was a little upset at first, but then it came around and we’re good friends now.”

Hu Zi couldn't help but straighten his back as he spoke, to show that he was very powerful.

Li Xi looked at Hu Zi's arrogant look and smiled, "Hu Zi is really amazing."

Hu Zi wanted to hear compliments, but when he heard them, his face turned red with embarrassment, "Not bad."

Li Xi couldn't help laughing when she saw him like this.

Hu Zi's face flushed red, he jumped off the stool and ran into the house, "I'm going to do my homework."

Li Xi looked at Hu Zi running away and her laughter grew louder and louder.

After Hu Zi ran into the house, he heard the laughter outside, and his already red face turned even redder, muttering, "Bad sister."

Li Xi laughed so hard that tears came out. Looking at the closed door, Li Xi raised the corners of her mouth and turned back to her room.

It seems that it was indeed those two yamen runners who came here to cause trouble today on their own initiative. She said that since Jiangning City was governed so well, the yamen team couldn't be that bad.

The two yamen runners probably thought that Hu Zi bullied Feng Tianyou and wanted to save face in front of their superiors by finding fault. However, they obviously used the wrong method.

Even if they succeed today, I'm afraid they won't get anything good.

The next day, Hu Zi got up and prepared to go to school, but he didn't expect to see his sister, who always stayed in bed every day, in the living room.

A little surprised, "Sister? Why are you up?"

"Just remember it. Come on, I'll go buy breakfast with you."

Before, Li Xi couldn't get up every morning, so Hu Zi would pay for himself to go out for meals and then bring back some for her.

Li Xi didn't get up early today on purpose, but she couldn't fall asleep after waking up in the morning, so she just got up.

Li Xi's previous long sleeping time was mainly due to physical reasons. As her body recovered, her sleeping time gradually returned to normal, which is reflected in the fact that she now sleeps shorter hours than before.

Li Xi and Hu Zi ate a bowl of wontons and ordered two steamed buns before going home together.

It was a rare opportunity for Li Xi to get up early and she had just finished breakfast, so she planned to send Hu Zi to school and digest the food at the same time.

On the way there, Li Xi chatted with Hu Zi, mainly talking about Hu Zi's situation in the private school.

"You've been in the private school for more than a month. How is it going? Are you adapting?"

"I've adapted well. The teachers and classmates in the private school are all very nice."

Hu Zi was very happy because Li Xi sent him to school today. If he hadn't been concerned about the fact that he was already a big kid going to school, he would have been unable to help but jump around.

Li Xi could feel Hu Zi's happiness. She reflected in her heart whether she was too confident in Hu Zi. He was only five years old.

Li Xi was just beginning to feel guilty, and when she lowered her head she saw her skinny legs.

He was a five-year-old child, and I was only a fourteen-year-old child. Most of the guilt in my heart disappeared in an instant.

"Then Hu Zi must have made a lot of good friends, right?"

In fact, Hu Zi has never been as lively as other children of his age. He stayed at home every day when he was in the village. It became more obvious after he moved to the city. Except for going to school and eating, he stayed at home almost every day.

How can this be possible? Children should act like children.

Except for her, of course, since she wasn't a real child.

Hearing her ask this, Hu Zi was stunned for a moment, "Not many, only two."

"That's great too," Li Xi encouraged, "When Hu Zi is not in school, he can invite his good friends to his house to play together."

"Is it okay?" Hu Zi looked up.

"Of course." Li Xi said affirmatively.
