Chapter 4: Small People, Big Evils
She frowned. "This, this is for people to eat? When I was a kid at my grandma's house, the pigs she had were better fed than this."
Then he sighed again, "Hey, it's good enough to have something to eat in this place. There are still many people who can't even afford such delicious porridge."
He Yue was originally born in the countryside. The countryside in the 2000s was much better than before and in ancient times.
Fortunately, He Yue has never been picky about food since she was a child. As long as she can eat it, she can accept it. What's more, this body now needs to eat more, and it needs to be combined with medicine and food to be well maintained.
She picked up the bowl and quickly finished the porridge and wild vegetables, washed the bowl, and the medicine on the table was ready to drink. After drinking the medicine, she went out to find her current parents and brothers.
As soon as she left the house, she met two women from the same village passing by. They were aunts from the village, and they were carrying baskets of grass. "Xiao Yue! Where are you going? I heard that you were not feeling well last night, and your father even called Uncle He in a hurry. How are you? Are you okay?"
"Seeing that she can still stand up and walk, I think there's no big problem. But from now on! Don't run around alone. You need to rest when you need to."
These two aunts happened to be the few people in the village who were friendly to He Yue's family. Hearing this, He Yue smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, aunts. I will take good care of myself."
The two women didn't say much to He Yue. They both had things to do. They smiled, nodded, and left.
He Yue walked along the road and met some children playing on the side of the road. She went up to one of them and asked, "Erdan, Erdan, have you seen Dazhuang and Xiaozhuang?"
The one called Erdan turned around to look at He Yue and said unhappily, "I didn't see it."
Then she ran after the other children with a smile. One of the skinny little girls, named Si Ya, raised her hand and pointed in a direction, "They seem to be going over there."
Before He Yue could thank her, Si Ya ran after the children.
He Yue followed the direction of Si Ya's finger and turned a few times before finally seeing a few people in the distance, including Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang.
The closer she got, the clearer she could hear what they were doing. He Yue originally thought they were playing together, but she didn't expect that it was actually a few children bullying Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang.
"Gee, gee, stinky horse, run! You dog, haven't you eaten yet? Hurry up and crawl, gee."
The boy rode on Dazhuang's back and hit him with a branch while talking.
Da Zhuang was crawling on the ground, biting the vine with his mouth, and the other end of the vine was held in the boy's hand.
Next to him was Xiao Zhuang, who was lying on the ground being pinned down by two other boys. They sat on him to prevent him from struggling.
Xiao Zhuang cried until his voice was hoarse, but he kept begging for mercy, "Please let my brother go, don't beat him, you can ride me, I will be your horse."
"Hmph! With your tiny body, you're scratching my butt so hard that it hurts. You'd better just stand there and watch! If you dare to resist or go back and complain, don't blame us for beating you up every time we see you."
The child riding on Dazhuang looked at Xiaozhuang with a wicked smile on his face, and Xiaozhuang just kept begging for mercy.
The other children all laughed out loud, and some praised the child riding on Dazhuang, "Brother Baoer, you are so majestic, just like a general on the battlefield."
The other children echoed, saying that the one called Baoer was He Baoer, the youngest son of He Yue's uncle.
He has been loved by his family since he was a child. His grandmother and mother have always said bad things about He Yue's family in his ears and supported him in bullying He Yue's family.
Most of the children in the village were bullied by him, and later two or three of them became his little followers, following Wei Baoer's lead every day.
The closer He Yue got, the angrier she became. She even had the urge to beat He Baoer to death, but when she calmed down, she was worried that she was too weak to defeat the four of them.
At this time, He Yue saw a few plants nearby, and she instantly came up with a good idea.
She knew that it was no ordinary plant, but a self-defense plant with leaves and stems covered with tiny thorns.
Anyone who touches their skin with it will feel very painful, itchy, and red and swollen for a few days.
This is nettle, commonly known as houttuynia. Other names include nettle, small hop, houttuynia, and hairy wormwood. It belongs to the Urticaceae family, genus Scorpionwort, and was historically known as hairy wormwood or nettle grass. The mountain people of southern Shaanxi called it "stinging grass," but here we call it "biting grass."
The bark fiber of nettle has good toughness, strong tensile strength, good gloss, and is easy to dye. It can be used as textile raw material, or to make hemp rope, weave carpets, etc. The whole plant can also be used as medicine.
He Yue tore off a piece of cloth from her body and wrapped it around the roots of the nettle, then pulled it up with force.
She held the nettle and yelled at He Baoer, "He Baoer, please get off my brother right now."
Several children looked at He Yue together. Xiao Zhuang's eyes showed worry, while Da Zhuang was still smiling and mumbling "sister."
But he still didn't dare to stand up. The others looked at He Yue mockingly. He Baoer even laughed and said, "Hey, aren't you a sickly person? How dare you speak to me so loudly today? Why don't you kneel down quickly?"
He Yue held up the nettle in her hand and said, "He Baoer, I'll say it again, please get off my brother."
"Hmph! Who do you think you are? Why should I listen to you? Xiaopang, drag her over here and put her at my feet. See if she dares to talk to me like that again." He Baoer sneered and then looked at Xiaopang beside her.
Xiao Pang stepped forward without hesitation. Before Xiao Pang approached He Yue, He Yue politely reminded him, "If you dare to come closer, don't blame me for being rude."
"Humph! You think I'm scared just by holding a piece of broken grass? Who told you to be disrespectful to our Brother Baoer?"
Xiao Zhuang looked at He Yue worriedly, and then hurriedly admitted his mistake to He Baoer and begged for mercy, "Brother Baoer, I beg you not to hurt my sister. If you have anything to say, come to me."
No one paid any attention to him. Xiaopang raised his hand to grab He Yue. He Yue swung the nettle in his hand and hit Xiaopang's hand. "I warned you, don't blame me if you don't listen."
As soon as the nettle touched Xiaopang's hand, Xiaopang covered his hand and howled in pain in just a moment.
Few people in the village knew what the grass in He Yue's hand was. Those who knew had suffered losses from it. There was no such grass in the places where children often played, so they had never experienced it personally.
Several people were stunned when they saw Xiaopang's appearance. He Baoer got off Dazhuang's back in an instant. The other two children who were pressing Xiaozhuang saw He Baoer move, so they also stood up and followed behind He Baoer.
He Baoer looked at the fat boy on the ground and pointed at He Yue angrily, "You money-losing bitch, what did you do to the fat boy?"
The three of them just looked at He Yue angrily, and no one cared about the fat boy who was crying on the ground.
He Yue ignored He Baoer's question and walked straight to Xiao Zhuang. Xiao Zhuang might have been pressed down for too long and couldn't get up at all.
