Chapter 178: You bastard, why are you being so reserved?

"Sister, my mother hit me!"

The little girl's eyes were red from crying, and she looked at Xia Liang pitifully.

Xia Liang was stunned. She was not very familiar with the people in this village, let alone the little girl. Why did she come to her after being beaten?

At this moment, a woman ran out hurriedly with a child in her arms.

"You damn girl, why are you running!"

The woman spoke angrily, and the little girl saw the woman's vicious look and hurriedly hid behind Xia Liang.

Xia Liang took a step back, Ning Zhiyuan protected her behind him, and looked at the woman holding the child: "What are you going to do!"

"Hey, I'm just disciplining my daughter, what's wrong?"

The woman reached out to grab the little girl, and the girl wanted to hide behind Xia Liang. Ning Zhiyuan frowned. These people were being reckless, and she didn't want to scare Xia Liang.

You have to know that Xia Liang is not alone.

"You go back first!"

Xia Liang nodded. It was obvious that this woman was not someone to be trifled with. She turned around and wanted to go back to the yard, but the little girl suddenly slipped in, even faster than her.

After the little girl entered the yard, she ran straight to the kitchen.

"Wow, this meat smells so good!"

When the little girl saw the meat on the table, her eyes widened. She ran to the table, reached out and grabbed a few pieces. Both hands were full and she kept stuffing them into her mouth.

When Xia Liang came in, she was stunned by the situation. In her two lifetimes, this was the first time she had encountered such a thing.

"you……"

"Sister, I haven't eaten meat for a long time. You wouldn't mind if I eat a few pieces of your meat, right?"

The little girl was still chewing meat, but her words were very clear.

Xia Liang's face turned cold. At this time, it was good enough for everyone to have enough to eat. If Ning Zhiyuan didn't have subsidies and tickets, how could their family eat meat so often?

But this little girl, they were not familiar with each other, how could she come in and grab the meat? And she spoke so fast?

"I mind!"

Xia Liang stepped forward and picked up the plate. The little girl's eyes were gleaming with cruelty. She stuffed the meat in her hand into her mouth with force, and her cheeks bulged.

The movement in the room startled several people outside the door. Ning Zhiyuan hurried in. When he saw the situation, a dull expression rarely appeared on his usually expressionless face.

At this time, the little girl had already stuffed the meat in her mouth, and she was about to step forward to snatch the meat in Xia Liang's hand.

Xia Liang looked unhappy. It was the first time she met such an unreasonable little girl.

"Give it to me!" The little girl rushed forward and tried to grab the plate with both hands.

Ning Zhiyuan saw this scene when he came in. His eyes turned cold, and he stepped forward to protect Xia Liang, saying in a cold voice: "Stop!"

The little girl's mother also came in and shouted, "You damned girl, how could you steal someone else's meat?"

There was no gossip in the countryside at that time, and the movement here quickly alarmed the neighbors. Word spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred. In a blink of an eye, many people came to Xia Liang's yard.

Aunt Li and Yang Xiaohong also came over, and they came to Xia Liang anxiously.

"Liangliang, are you okay?"

Xia Liang shook her head and smiled bitterly, "We cooked some meat at home, and this little girl came in and grabbed it. She ate more than half of it, and she wanted to grab it all."

Xia Liang didn't want to snatch things from the little girl, but he really couldn't stand this kind of behavior.

"Liu Zhaodi, is this how you educate your children? How old are they and they still come to the neighbor's house to steal food?"

"I……"

The woman holding the child blushed, and she hurried to the little girl, raised her hand and twisted the little girl's ear, and angrily scolded: "You stupid girl, do I need you to eat or to wear? You come here to steal my meat!"

"Ah, don't...it hurts..."

"Mom, I haven't eaten meat for a long time. I'm hungry..."

The little girl cried and shouted, looking at Xia Liang aggrievedly as she shouted: "My sister's family cooked so much meat for me to eat, what's wrong?"

This made Yang Xiaohong fly into a rage: "You are right. Your family will distribute wheat in the next few days. When the time comes, you will have so much wheat to distribute. What's wrong with giving some to my sister?"

"That's our family's food, how can we give it to others?"

The little girl immediately retorted, still a sharp-tongued person.

Yang Xiaohong sneered, "My sister cooked some meat at home, and it's her own meat. How can I give it to you? Besides, I didn't give it to you. You came here and snatched it!"

She looked at the little girl's greasy mouth, then looked at her two hands, and sneered, "You must have stolen about a pound of this, right? Sister Liu, what do you think we should do with this?"

Aunt Li also spoke up quickly: "We are all honest people in our village, and this is the first time we have encountered such a thing. If it is always like this, then in the future, when someone makes something delicious, other children will rush over to grab it. Is there still law and order in this village?"

"That's right. I'm not saying anything bad about you, Liu Zhaodi. How can you be so attached to your child?"

Aunt Xu also came up to help, and Liu Zhaodi blushed.

"I, why did I think..."

"Okay, I can forget what happened today, but I don't want it to happen again!"

When someone comes in to steal something, the one who gets to eat it will be the child. Can Xia Liang make the child spit out the food?

Just be careful in the future. In this day and age, you have to be cautious when eating meat.

"How can we let this go? Liangliang, you can't just let her do what she wants!"

Aunt Li was not happy about it. Xia Liang was her daughter and she would not let her daughter suffer any injustice.

Xia Liang stepped forward and pulled her hand: "Mom, she is just a child after all, so let it go!"

The crowd dispersed, but as they left, they were pointing and talking at Liu Zhaodi and the others.

At night, Liu Zhaodi's husband came back. When he heard about the affair, his face turned black with anger. The woman's screams could be heard until very late.

Xia Liang was upset. She had never thought that frying some meat would cause such a big trouble.

"Ning Zhiyuan, are there so many messy things in your army?"

In the past, the educated youths didn’t have enough food or warm clothes to wear, and no one in the village came to help them. Now, just because they have something good to eat, they are missed.

"It's okay there!" This was the first time that Ning Zhiyuan encountered such a thing.

He went to the kitchen to boil some hot water, then brought it over. "Soak your feet. You must be tired after a long day!"

Xia Liang took off her shoes naturally. Since the second day after moving here, Ning Zhiyuan asked her to soak her feet every day.

"You can join us in the bath!"

In the past, Ning Zhiyuan would wash his feet with her water only after she finished bathing.

Ning Zhiyuan glanced at her with a serious look and did not respond.

Xia Liang was a little embarrassed, and suddenly felt that what she had just said was a little intimate. Ning Zhiyuan didn't think that she was not reserved, right?

She washed her feet hastily and climbed onto the bed.

You bastard, isn't it just washing feet together? When you hugged me to sleep at night, why didn't you behave yourself?
