Chapter 112 They want to take my parents' lives, they're bastards!
Seeing her older sister Sui Sui crying so sadly, Zhi Zhi felt very sad too. She stood on tiptoe and tried her best to reach out her little hands to cup her face.
"Sister Sui Sui, don't cry. Such a pretty face will look bad if you cry. Zhi Zhi won't be affected."
"We are good friends, it was Uncle Han who was wrong."
"He must have forced you to do something you didn't want to do, right? Don't be afraid, Sister Sui Sui. Zhi Zhi has money. Zhi Zhi can support you."
The little cub lived twice, though it didn't grow up to be an adult in its previous life.
But she had seen many of her fellow children in orphanages, who all lived very well without parents.
So, in her innocent little mind, she naturally came to believe that...
Even if we prepare for the worst, and Sui Sui's parents are gone, I can still support Sui Sui through my own efforts and the space around me.
Zhizhi grabbed her sleeve and tried her best to wipe away Suisui's tears.
A soft, sweet voice rang out earnestly, "Sister Sui Sui, I will always be by your side. I will do the things you don't want to do. With Zhi Zhi here, no one can hurt you."
Sui Sui looked at her younger sister Zhi Zhi with teary eyes.
Such a small person, with sincerity and warmth, walked straight into her sight.
She was only three and a half years old, two years younger than me, yet she could say such weighty things.
"Zhizhi..."
"I'm holed up here."
Zhizhi took her hand and walked towards Han Xiaobao.
Han Xiaobao had already been spun around until he was dizzy by the two Su brothers. Zhizhi raised her chin at Suisui, signaling her to untie the sack.
Sui Sui stepped forward and untied the burlap sack with trembling hands.
She called softly, "Xiao Bao, Xiao Bao?"
Han Xiaobao slowly woke up and burst into tears upon discovering that the first person he saw was his older sister.
"Sister! Two masked men just came to grab us. Could they be Ox-Head and Horse-Face coming to take our lives? It's not Xiao Bao who did the bad things, it's Dad and Mom. If they want to take lives, they should take Dad and Mom's lives, not ours!"
Han Xiaobao sat on the ground, sobbing and crying.
He gripped his sister's trouser leg tightly, refusing to let go even a fraction of an inch.
"Sis, thank goodness you came to save me, otherwise I would be dead!"
Gan Su and Zhen Wei nervously stuffed the black plastic bag into their pockets, one looking up at the sky and the other at the ground.
They never expected that Han Xiaobao, who seemed so arrogant on the surface, was actually a cowardly fool.
They simply blindfolded him with a sack and spun him around a few times, and Ox-Head and Horse-Face appeared.
coward.
Han Suisui hugged her younger brother tightly and whispered comfortingly, "Don't be afraid, Xiaobao, don't be afraid."
Zhizhi, standing nearby, coolly reminded him, "I just told you to hold your sister's hand tightly and not walk forward on your own. Let me tell you, evil spirits are very likely to appear in alleys and eat children. They especially eat bad children. Whoever makes the most mistakes, the evil spirit will eat them."
Upon hearing the word "evil spirit," Xiao Bao's face turned deathly pale.
"No way! Why don't the evil spirits go after our parents? They're bad guys!"
"Wow! You just found out? But we didn't see you helping your sister. When Mom and Dad bullied Sister Sui Sui, you just stood by and watched. You were an accomplice, you know that?"
Upon hearing Zhizhi's words, Han Xiaobao immediately trembled with fear.
“How can I help? Mom said that my sister is only punished for making a mistake. Xiao Bao said he would go to the closet with his sister, so Mom beat him even harder!”
My sister had closed the closet for three days and three nights.
Xiao Bao couldn't see anyone.
In the end, it was Xiaobao who asked his father to find his sister, and to go out and turn on the lights to look for her.
Dad just told Xiaobao that his sister was in the closet.
Xiao Bao thought the wardrobe was a hide-and-seek game and wanted to go in too, but his father said that if Xiao Bao went in, his sister would be even more guilty and would be caught even more.
Mom said that Xiao Bao should always dislike his older sister so that Dad will be satisfied.
If Xiaobao says he likes his older sister, then his father will punish her even more severely.
Xiao Bao wiped away his tears and pulled a dirty piece of pork belly from his pocket.
"Sis, do you want some?"
Before Han Suisui could refuse, he stuffed it directly into his sister's hand, his eyes sparkling with anticipation as he waited for her to eat.
Han Suisui didn't want to eat it at first because her younger brother's hands were dirty.
But she hadn't tasted meat in a long time, and she simply couldn't resist her brother's expectant gaze.
She slowly and stiffly stuffed the cold meat into her mouth, and the moment the aroma of braised meat filled her mouth, Sui Sui's tears suddenly burst forth.
"This meat isn't salty at all..."
While she was in the closet, she clearly heard her younger brother say in an extremely disgusted tone that the meat was too salty.
The younger brother was nitpicking at his mother. His parents always spoiled him the most, so whatever he said went, and his mother could only apologize.
But the meat wasn't salty at all...
My mother is reluctant to add salt because salt is expensive, and she tries to save as much as possible.
My younger brother said the meat was salty on purpose.
Han Xiaobao was a little afraid to look into his sister's eyes. He scratched his head awkwardly and said, "I said that on purpose. They always do things that go too far, so I'll just go a little too far too."
He knew the meat wasn't salty; in fact, it was a bit bland.
But when his parents locked his older sister in the closet, he would find ways to nitpick and get back at them.
He'd retaliate in kind; if his parents treated his older sister badly, he'd deliberately act unhappy and cause trouble.
Their retribution is Xiao Bao.
Xiao Bao wants to make them unhappy too.
Zhizhi looked at Han Xiaobao with suspicion, "You would be so kind? But your parents favor you so much, you should be the most loved one, why are you protecting your sister?"
Han Xiaobao felt a little scared when he saw Zhizhi.
But he still forced himself to raise his head and said confidently, "So what? We are all our parents' children. If they don't behave properly, we won't be happy either!"
Xiao Bao is tongue-tied and can't express what he wants to say clearly.
Zhizhi was a little confused.
Xiao Bao meant that he and Sui Sui were both Uncle Han's children, and their parents should treat them equally.
Why didn't Xiaobao just stand up and defend his sister?
Sui Sui awkwardly reached out and touched her younger brother's head. She said softly, "Xiao Bao once spoke up for me. He stood in front of me and told my dad not to lock me up. But the consequence of that was that my dad would lock me up for even longer. My dad said that I deliberately instigated Xiao Bao to fight against them."
She understands, she understands everything.
Unbeknownst to her, Xiao Bao was also growing up quietly.
Xiao Bao's arrogance and rudeness serve to highlight her.
After babbling for a while, Xiao Bao finally nodded emphatically, "Yes! So Xiao Bao will continue to be a little rascal! After Xiao Bao becomes a big rascal, maybe Mom and Dad will like your sister more, right?"
“No, you’re wrong.” Gan Su stood aside, his face calm and objective. “No matter how much you misbehave, you’re still their precious darling. Because you’re a boy, your parents are ignorant and feudal. They will only favor you unconditionally. As long as you exist, your sister will be neglected and bullied.”
Han Xiaobao froze, his once vivid expression suddenly going blank.
After a very long time, he asked incredulously.
"What should I do? Go to hell?"
