Quick Wear: Cousin, Come to the Bowl Quickly
Chapter 17: The Scholar Cousin in the Farming Story (7)
Lin Xi ran back home with a red face, but Du Xingzhi's chin became swollen the next day. Facing Miao's questioning, Du Xingzhi could only say that he accidentally bumped into it, which caused Miao to scold him, saying that he was such a grown man, but he could still bump his chin. After scolding him, she brought him ointment to apply and told him to be more careful in the future.
He had a chin that was blackened by ointment and couldn't go out to see people, but the culprit Lin Xi was living a leisurely and comfortable life.
Lin Xi peeled a green-skinned tangerine, hesitated for a moment, and gave a slice to her little nephew first. Seeing that little Shuanzi was grimacing because of the sourness, she couldn't help but be glad that she didn't eat it, and then she burst into laughter again.
Xiao Shuanzi came back to his senses, frowned and said that his aunt was mean, and was about to run to complain to his grandmother, but was stopped by Lin Xi, "Xiao Shuanzi, auntie will tell you something fun, you share this orange with others, let them have a taste of the sourness too."
Xiao Shuanzi was at the age when he loved to play pranks. When he heard this, his eyes lit up. He took the orange from Lin Xi's hand, ran to Xiao Du who was washing clothes in the yard, broke off a segment of the orange and fed it to her, "Mom, eat this orange, it's so sweet."
Mrs. Du looked up and saw that Xiao Shuanzi had only eaten one orange slice in his chubby little hand. She said she didn't want to eat it and went back to washing clothes. Xiao Shuanzi was a little anxious when he saw that his mother didn't fall for it, "It's really sweet."
Little Du was not fooled at all. She snorted, "Hmph, I don't know you, your mother. If you were really that sweet, you would have stuffed it in your mouth long ago. How could you be willing to give it to me? Go and play. If your clothes get wet, I will beat you."
Xiao Shuanzi quickly escaped, ran back to Lin Xi dejectedly, pouted, "My mother is too smart, luckily I ran fast, otherwise I would have been beaten up."
Lin Xi laughed so hard that she fell backwards. She patted Xiao Shuanzi on the head and taught him with a smile, "You can't do this. It's too obvious. I'll teach you a trick. If you do this..."
So, Xiao Shuanzi, who had received the true teachings, stood at the gate and waited for a while. When he saw his second uncle, he started to run. However, he had not run a few steps when Lin Jun, who was quick-eyed and quick-handed, grabbed him by the back of his neck. "Xiao Shuanzi, why didn't you say hello to your second uncle when you saw him? Why are you running?"
Xiao Shuanzi blinked his big eyes and said innocently: "How could I run away? I just suddenly heard my mother calling me." After saying that, he hid his hands behind his back in an attempt to cover up his mistake.
Lin Jun was sharp-eyed. He spun him around and saw the orange in his hand. He couldn't help but smile, "I was wondering, you're eating alone here, hiding. I usually buy you so many snacks, why don't you know how to be grateful?"
After saying that, he snatched the orange from Xiao Shuanzi's hand, broke off most of it, and threw it into his mouth, "You don't let me eat it, but I want to..." Before he finished speaking, he spat out the orange in his mouth with a "wow" sound, and then he spat several times before getting rid of the sour taste in his mouth. When he looked to the side, Xiao Shuanzi had already run away.
Lin Xi and Xiao Dushi, who witnessed the whole process not far away, were amused by Lin Jun's embarrassed appearance. Xiao Dushi wiped the tears from her eyes and said angrily: "This naughty monkey is so cunning."
Lin Jun walked into the yard angrily, and seeing Lin Xi smiling brightly, he glared at her and said, "It must be you, a devilish girl, who taught him that."
Lin Xi squinted her eyes and smiled at him, "Second brother, this is called a willing bait. Who told you to steal the child's things? Just now, Xiao Shuan gave Xiao Shuan to eat, and Xiao Shuan didn't fall for it."
The two were chatting and laughing when suddenly a shout came from outside the yard, "Uncle Cheng, is Uncle Cheng at home? Something has happened, please go and have a look." Then a sturdy man in shorts and straw sandals appeared at the door and looked inside curiously.
Seeing this, Madam Du stopped what she was doing, wiped the water off her hands, stood up and said to the person who came, "Brother Fuli, what happened? Grandpa and father-in-law have gone to the town, and mother-in-law has also returned to Dujia Village. The adults are not at home."
The man slapped his head and said, "Oh, what's going on? I'll go see if Third Uncle is here." Then he turned around and looked for someone else.
Lin Xi and Lin Jun looked at each other and quickly called out to him, "Brother Fuli, please tell us what happened first. Grandpa went there early in the morning and he will probably be back soon. Please tell us first so that we can pass on the message later. It would be best if we can catch up."
Lin Fuli thought about it and quickly told the story. It turned out that Lai Bazi from the village came to Lin Xiaomiao's house with some things today, saying that he wanted to propose marriage. Lai Bazi was ugly and lazy, so how could Lin Xiaomiao agree? She got angry and wanted to drive him out. The two were arguing.
Lin Xi understood, and thinking of what happened on the way back from the last visit to pay respect to Du Yan, she felt relieved, so she said to Lin Fuli, "This is a matter related to Sister Xiao Miao's innocence, so you should go and ask Third Uncle to come over. If Grandpa comes back, we will ask him to come over."
Lin Fuli said yes and hurried away. Lin Xi stood there hesitantly. Although she knew that the heroine would be safe in the original plot, she still felt sorry for her when she thought of the day when she saw her lying in the bushes in a mess.
After thinking for a moment, she pulled Lin Jun aside and said, "Second brother, come with me to my aunt's house."
Lin Jun was a little confused, "Why are you going to my aunt's house suddenly?"
Lin Xi gave Xiao Dushi and Lin Jun a brief account of what happened that day, but she skipped the part where Lin Xiaomiao's clothes were in disarray. She only said that Baldy tried to molest Lin Xiaomiao, but they happened to see him and saved him.
Mrs. Du was furious when she heard this. She spat and said, "That scabby guy is not a good guy. He has no proper way of making a living and he has no shame to think about the innocent girl."
Lin Jun also clenched his fists, thinking of how the bald man had once climbed over the wall to peek at his sister. After being discovered by him, he and his eldest brother beat him up severely, which made him give up. He didn't expect that the bald man would still not change his bad habits and go to harm other girls again.
"On the way back, we met some uncles who were chopping firewood in the mountains. My aunt, my cousin and I told others that Xiao Miao fell down the slope while chopping firewood and we happened to meet her and rescued her. Don't let it slip."
Lin Jun and Xiao Dushi naturally agreed, and Lin Xi naturally trusted them, so she told Xiao Dushi that if the head of the village came back, she should ask him to come over quickly.
The two went out and walked towards the Du family.
