Chapter 208 Scuffle
After drinking a large bowl of sugar water, her originally flat belly became noticeably bulging. She touched her belly and smiled shyly, feeling a little embarrassed.
She looked left and right, but still no one was around, so she grabbed the indenture contract and prepared to leave.
Before she could tiptoe to the gate, a man came towards her. It was Sang Xinghao who had been having fun outside all day.
He was a little surprised to see the little girl at home, but he just thought that it might be a girl from the village who came to play with Sang Yu.
Seeing that she seemed to be leaving, he even greeted her enthusiastically: "Whose sister are you? How come I have never seen you before?"
The little girl, who was already feeling guilty, was startled when he bumped into her head-on. She subconsciously hid the indenture contract behind her, and then she didn't say anything, just looked at him quietly.
Her action of hiding something did not escape Sang Xinghao's eyes. He frowned slightly. Could it be that she had stolen something from the house?
Seeing that he neither came in nor moved away, the girl became anxious, fearing that other people in the house would chase her out and stop her from leaving, so she simply plucked up her courage and walked out.
When she passed by Sang Xinghao, she felt her hands were empty. She was suddenly shocked. It was her indenture!
Sang Xinghao took the thing from her hand when she walked past him. Before he could take a closer look, the girl pounced on him and tried to snatch back her indenture.
The two men, one trying to snatch the thing and the other refusing to give it, ended up wrestling on the ground.
After all, Sang Xinghao was a child of a wealthy family. Even when fighting, he was considerate of his manners and tried his best to grab the girl's arm to try to stop her actions.
The girl was completely different. She went straight for the man's face and hair, scratching and biting him hard.
Several adults who were hiding in the main room and looking out through the crack in the door could no longer sit still when they saw this scene, and hurried out to try to stop the fight.
When Sang Xingjia picked up Sang Xinghao, he found that there were several bloody scratches on his face, two teeth marks, one deep and one shallow, and his body was covered with dirt.
He quickly asked with concern: "Little brother, are you okay?"
Sang Xinghao, who had been very strong and biting his lips to hold on, suddenly flattened his mouth when he heard his question and burst into tears.
That sister was so unsportsmanlike in her fight. She pulled his hair, dug his eyes, and bit his face. Now he felt pain all over his head.
Sang Yu was startled by the crying and hurried out of the kitchen. She immediately saw the scars on Sang Xinghao's face and the girl who was still twisting and struggling in Sang Yongjing's arms.
"...What happened?"
She remembered that everything was fine before she entered the kitchen, how could it become like this in a short time.
Xie Qiujin felt very distressed when she saw the purple teeth marks on Sang Xinghao's face, but she still patiently told him the whole story.
After hearing this, Sang Yu finally understood what was going on. She walked over to Sang Xinghao and gently patted him on the back: "It's okay, it's okay, Hao'er, don't cry."
This child is also unlucky. In the past, in the capital, those children were proud of their noble status, and even if they were bullied, at most they would be isolated or ridiculed.
After arriving in Qingxi Village, no one dared to bully Sang Yu since he saved Zhao Baoer.
I didn't expect to meet a little girl today who was not a good person. She was so cruel when she started to fight.
His heart was instantly filled with self-doubt and pain, making him feel wronged and uncomfortable.
After coaxing her for a long time, seeing that Sang Xinghao had gradually stopped crying, Sang Yu took the indenture contract from his hand and walked up to the little girl.
She took a look and saw that the girl had no obvious injuries except that her hair and clothes were a little messy.
It seems that Sang Xinghao did not really hit her, of course it is more likely that he did not know how to fight.
In fact, the injuries on Sang Xinghao's face looked scary, and the most serious one was the purple tooth mark.
After all, don't forget that the other party is just a little girl who is so thin that she is unrecognizable and has been on a hunger strike for who knows how long. How much strength can she have to deal with a child of the same age?
Sang Yu sighed. "Alas, I was inconsiderate and shouldn't have let you leave immediately. This is just a misunderstanding. You two should apologize to each other, and I'll take you into the city tomorrow, okay?"
At first, she only wanted to return the indenture contract to the little girl, so that she could go wherever she wanted in the future.
Now that I think about it, Qingxi Village is not a good place. Although the official road can be seen over the mountain, the other party is just a little girl of six or seven years old.
There is a precedent of human trafficking in the village. She might be sold to a brothel before she even leaves the village.
Good people should save each other to the end, and Sang Yu felt that he should at least send the other party to the city.
The girl who was twisting and struggling gradually stopped moving, and her almond-shaped eyes stared straight into Sang Yu's eyes, as if to confirm whether what she said was true or not.
Sang Yu shrugged: "If I want to harm you, there is no need to lie to you. I can just tie you up. You can't resist, right?"
This made a lot of sense. The girl was silent for a while, then stretched out a hand, palm up, and looked at the indenture contract in her hand.
"This is for you. You can keep it or burn it." Sang Yu quickly handed the indenture contract to her.
Her attitude towards this girl was very clear. She just met her and couldn't bear it, so she wanted to lend a hand to save her once.
As for whether she lives or dies in the future, or lives a good life or not, it has nothing to do with her.
At the beginning, she thought about letting the other party learn a skill so that he could make a living in the future, but looking at the current situation, the other party didn't need it at all.
The world is in chaos. I heard from people in the city that there is still a war on the southwestern border, and there are unfortunate people like the little girl everywhere.
Sang Yu didn't think she had the ability to help these people and free them from their suffering. All she could do was take care of her own family.
If she can make more money and expand her business in the future, maybe then she will give it a try.
The indenture contract returned to the girl's hands. She unfolded it and took a look, confirming that it had not been replaced and was still the original one. Then she folded it and carefully stuffed it into her lapel.
After bringing the two children back to the yard and letting others watch them, Sang Yu went into the kitchen to do the final finishing work.
Soon, four dishes and a soup were served on the table.
Sang Xingjia simply cleaned the wound on Sang Xinghao's face and applied a layer of medicine powder, which was left over from the last pig slaughter.
I don’t know if it was because he felt it was too embarrassing that the little girl didn’t cry while he was crying so sadly, but when Sang Xinghao sat down at the eight-immortals table, he still had a pursed mouth and looked unhappy.
Sang Yu brought in the little girl who was sitting in a daze in the yard. When she saw his expression, she rolled her eyes and let the little girl sit next to him.
The two children looked at each other and immediately turned their heads away. It was obvious that neither of them liked the other and was a little angry.
