While the adults were busy, Wang Dachui led Juanjuan to their dining table and generously shared the vegetable pancakes with her.
Juanjuan was really hungry. She hadn't had a chance to eat since picking up her parents in the morning, and after staying up all afternoon, she was truly starving.
"Thank you, Brother Hammer."
The little guy took the vegetable pancake and ate it in small bites.
She couldn't even get such a perfectly clean vegetable pancake at home; it was a rare treat!
At home, she could only eat what her father and his family left over.
Seeing this, Da Chui wanted to give Juan Juan the eggs he had hidden, but Juan Juan quickly shook her head.
Eggs are a rare commodity.
Although she was the one who fed the chickens and collected the eggs at home, she had never eaten any eggs herself.
At home, everyone dotes on their father, who in turn favors his sons. There's no mother, let alone Juanjuan.
Seeing that Juanjuan wasn't eating, Wang Dachui peeled the egg, broke it open, and took out the yolk: "You eat this, I don't like it."
After hesitating for a long time, Juanjuan couldn't help but take it. She held it carefully in both hands, then lowered her head and took a bite. Her eyes lit up. It was really delicious.
When Wang Dachui saw Juanjuan eating, he actually felt that the egg in his mouth tasted even better than before.
When Jiang Dai arrived, she saw the two children getting along happily and harmoniously.
I couldn't help but sigh:
Childhood sweethearts, innocent and carefree, how wonderful!
Wait, it seems this little boy's name is... Big Hammer? That shouldn't be the male lead's name, what a pity.
Juanjuan heard her mother's voice again. She turned around abruptly and saw her mother standing behind her.
Juanjuan swallowed the egg yolk in her mouth and whispered, "Mother."
Wang Dachui stood up, looking at the woman in front of him with some wariness, then decisively grabbed Juanjuan's hand and ran.
He was genuinely afraid that Juanjuan, that fool, would give the food in her hand to that old witch.
Jiang Dai: ?
She's not some monster! She's Juanjuan's mother!
[No, what exactly did the original owner do in the past? Even the neighbor's kid is like this, it feels like Juanjuan belongs to the Wang family!]
Juanjuan turned around and looked at her mother. Her lips didn't move, but a sound came out. She couldn't help but whisper to Dachui:
"Big Hammer Brother, can you hear what my mother said?"
Juanjuan is clever, but she is still a child. She doesn't understand, but Big Hammer's uncle can read, so Big Hammer might know.
Big Hammer ran a distance with Curly, and no one else heard the children talking.
No! Did your mother speak just now?
"Mother said something really nice! She even mentioned your name."
I can't memorize those words, and I don't know what they mean.
Wang Dachui raised his hand and touched Juanjuan's forehead like an adult: "No fever!"
"You must have misheard! Your mother didn't say anything!"
Juanjuan lowered her head. Could it be that... only she could hear what her mother said without opening her mouth?
"Big Hammer Brother, can't people speak without opening their mouths?"
Finally, the little guy asked, "Is it a ghost?"
She did suspect that her mother was possessed, otherwise how could she not speak and say so many strange things?
Big Hammer nodded: "That's for sure! Ghosts get caught by Taoist priests! Those Taoist priests are really powerful!"
"With a few swift movements, the ghost vanished into thin air!"
When Wang Dachui talked about ghosts and monsters, he did so in a vivid and detailed way, almost as if he were showing off how much he knew in front of Juanjuan.
Little did they know that this had startled Juanjuan so much that her heart stopped for a moment.
The thought of her mother, who now speaks gently to her, being taken away and vanished into thin air terrifies her.
She actually liked this mother.
“My mother isn’t a ghost!” Juanjuan said, “I misspoke, I was just asking.”
The little guy vowed in his heart that he would never tell anyone that his mother could remain silent.
Big Hammer: "Okay, okay, you're wrong, your mother isn't! But I think your mother looks much better, she's prettier!"
Juanjuan nodded: "Mm!"
