Xiao Wangshu was a little worried when he saw Jing Yu like this. He wanted to go forward but didn't dare. The eldest brother who usually took the lead ignored Jing Yu, so he was even less able to do so.
Xiao Nanxin knew that being injured would be very painful, but his stepmother was saving his third brother now, so he couldn't care less and let his stepmother apply medicine to his third brother. In this way, his third brother's injuries would heal quickly.
Xiao Nanxin felt good just thinking about it, and she raised a big smile, with dimples appearing at the corners of her mouth, and her eyes sparkled as if they contained a sea of stars.
Lin Shuang moved quickly and finished applying the ointment in no time. However, she didn't know if he had any other injuries on his body, so she wanted to pull open his clothes.
"What are you doing? You have no shame." Xiao Jingyuanyu cursed. He stared at Lin Shuang fiercely, wanting to pounce on her and bite her.
"Are you still injured? Let me take a look." Lin Shuang looked at Xiao Jingyu as if he were a fool.
"I don't want it, go away."
The loud quarrels and shouting attracted the attention of Li Qiuping from next door.
When Li Qiuping heard the crying of the child next door, her heart skipped a beat. It was over. Could it be that Lin Shuang was beating the child again?
I was extremely anxious and paced back and forth, not knowing what to do.
"Mom, what's wrong? There's a child crying next door. Should we go and check it out?" Liu Xiaocui walked over holding her son.
"I'll go see what's going on." Li Qiuping frowned, looking anxious, and hurried to the Xiao family.
"What's wrong? Why do I hear the child crying at home? Is the child disobedient?" Li Qiuping asked tentatively, observing Lin Shuang's expression while speaking.
He was afraid that Lin Shuang would become the same as before, and that if he said something wrong it would hurt the children.
"Grandma Li, this is what happened. Jingyu was injured, and my stepmother gave me some medicine to apply to him. However, Jingyu refused, so my stepmother applied it herself. Jingyu was wrong in this matter."
Xiao Ce directly stood up and explained the whole story to prevent Grandma Li from misunderstanding her stepmother.
"So that's how it is." Li Qiuping's worries subsided and she stepped forward to comfort Xiao Jingyu.
"Jingyu boy, your stepmother is treating you well now, so don't be angry. Be good. No matter what, it's better than the old days, isn't it?"
Li Qiuping patiently and earnestly said to Xiao Jingyu that the children were still young and the family was in such a situation. How could they do without an adult to support them?
Moreover, she looked at Lin Shuang with clear eyes, which was very different from before.
Xiao Jingyu knew how good Grandma Li was to their family. Even though he disagreed, he did not refute her directly. He just kept silent and pouted.
"Look at you, your lips are so pouty you could hang a bottle of oil on them. You can't do that anymore."
Grandma Li's smile made Xiao Jingyu feel a little better, and he responded in a muffled voice.
Li Qiuping smiled and turned to look at Lin Shuang, "Lin Shuang, you are going to town, right? I'll go home now and ask Qingzi to come over."
"Okay, thank you Aunt Li." Lin Shuang smiled politely and gratefully.
Li Qiuping went back, and after a while, Li Qing came.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry about going to the town. I will take good care of Brother Xiao Yi and Jing Yu." Li Qing has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his honest face makes people feel good. Lin Shuang feels that Aunt Li's family are all kind people.
"Okay, thank you for your help then." Lin Shuang smiled friendly.
"By the way, sister-in-law, these are the two bowls of braised pork and rabbit meat you sent yesterday." Li Qing, who looked honest but also clever, handed the two bowls to Lin Shuang.
Xiao Ce observed from the side and immediately stepped forward to take it.
Lin Shuang noticed Xiao Ce's actions and smiled with satisfaction. Xiao Ce was very good at observing people's expressions.
Lin Shuang looked down at the two bowls in Xiao Ce's hands, both of which had been washed.
"It's getting late, let's pack up first and leave soon. There's rice porridge in the pot and some rice on the stove. If they don't have enough, please cook some."
"Sister-in-law, don't worry. I will remember everything you told me." Li Qing patted his chest with his big hands.
"Xiao Ce, go to the village chief's house and talk about borrowing the ox cart. I'll go to the cellar to get the wild boar meat." Lin Shuang glanced at Xiao Ce.
"Stepmother, I'll go right away." Xiao Ce ran out directly.
Xiao Wangshu and Xiao Nanxin stayed in the woodshed and talked with Xiao Jingyu.
Li Qing went to the kitchen to get some porridge for Xiao Yi.
Why doesn't Lin Shuang care about Xiao Yi?
In Lin Shuang's eyes, the key to her return home is her four children. As for Xiao Yi, as long as he is not dead, it will be fine.
When she first came here, Lin Shuang always believed that I should treat others the way they treat me.
At this time, Lin Shuang just wanted to complete the task and return home as soon as possible.
Lin Shuang went straight to the cellar, took out the wild boar meat from the space, and then came out of the cellar with the wild boar meat.
Disguised as being taken from the cellar, it still looks as fresh as yesterday.
Place some large leaves on the bottom, put the wild boar meat on it, and cover it with a layer of cloth.
All the bamboo baskets at home are used to hold wild boar meat, and the rabbits are still carried in backpacks. After I got home yesterday, I put all the rabbits into the chicken coop.
"Wangshu, Nanxin, come here."
"Stepmother, if you have anything to say, come find Nanxin." Xiao Nanxin's soft voice sounded beside him.
"You two watch here, I'm going to catch rabbits." Lin Shuang pointed at the bamboo baskets.
"Okay, stepmother, leave this little thing to me and my second sister." Xiao Nanxin and Xiao Wangshu looked at Lin Shuang confidently. They could handle this little thing.
"Okay, I'll use the money to buy you some pastries." Lin Shuang said with a smile.
I originally wanted to talk about candied haws. It is summer now, and the main ingredient of candied haws, hawthorn, matures in autumn.
"Really?" Xiao Nanxin's eyes suddenly lit up and he laughed like a silver bell. This kind of hearty laughter was the first time Lin Shuang saw Xiao Nanxin.
It shows the temptation of the town and the delicious food. I didn’t expect that he was so easily satisfied. He is much better than some of the naughty kids nowadays.
"Stepmother, you are so nice now. Can you never leave me now?"
Xiao Nanxin looked at Lin Shuang eagerly, his expectations gradually growing higher and higher. His bright eyes stared at Lin Shuang intently, as if he must get an answer.
Lin Shuang lowered her head and looked at the cute little girl. She did not lie to her because lies would be exposed one day.
"No, I will leave when I have given you all a good life and reunited your families."
There was no smile on her beautiful face, and she said this as if the weather was nice today.
"Stepmother..." Xiao Nanxin felt a little aggrieved, her nose felt sore, and her heart seemed a little sad. She didn't know that this was concern.
"It's time for us to go." Lin Shuang had already prepared everything. Xiao Wangshu and Xiao Nanxin followed behind with a listless look on their faces.
