Chapter 197 When did you get a younger sister?
The little boy felt embarrassed and said nothing more. He walked away quickly with his friends.
Xia Qingcao hesitated for a moment, walked over and helped Lu Xiaoxue who was sitting on the ground. Seeing that her head and body were covered with grass debris, he raised his hands to help her get it off without thinking, and his face and tone were cold:
"Are you okay? Can you walk?"
"My legs hurt." Because she cried, Lu Xiaoxue's face was dirty and looked very funny. She just looked at Xia Qingcao without blinking and said three words:
"I'm hungry."
Xia Qingcao was stunned for a moment, helped her to the side of the bicycle, let her sit on the back seat of the bicycle, and he didn't dare to carry anyone, so he pushed the bicycle forward.
The two had just walked for a while when they saw a disabled uncle carrying a basket to sell steamed buns.
Xia Qingcao stopped the car, took out a dime from her pocket, bought two steamed buns, and handed them to Lu Xiaoxue.
Lu Xiaoxue took the steamed bun and was about to take a bite but stopped.
"Why don't you eat it?" Seeing that she didn't eat it, Xia Qingcao asked in confusion.
"It's cold." Lu Xiaoxue said with a pout. She only liked to eat meat. Now she was given two steamed buns, but they were still cold. Naturally, she was very disgusted.
"It's hot now, and you can eat cold ones." Xia Qingcao said nonchalantly.
In her eyes, this white flour steamed bun was the best thing. He wanted to eat it in the countryside but couldn't, so why would she care whether it was cold or hot.
Lu Xiaoxue's eyes were full of disdain, but now her stomach was really hungry and started to growl again, so she didn't care about that anymore and just opened her mouth and started to bite.
While eating the steamed bun, looking at Xia Qingcao who was pushing the cart in front of her, Lu Xiaoxue suddenly asked:
"What's your name?"
She had been calling him a country bumpkin these past two days and hadn't paid much attention to his name.
"Xia Qingcao." Xia Qingcao didn't turn around, leaving her with only the back of his head.
If Lu Xiaoxue had heard such a rustic name in the past, she would have laughed out loud and said a lot of mocking words, but now she actually felt that the name was not rustic at all and sounded quite nice.
Green grass, green grass, can grow everywhere, green and lush, stubborn and brave.
"I'm sorry." After a while, Lu Xiaoxue suddenly spoke.
"What?" Xia Qingcao was a little confused, not knowing why she suddenly apologized.
"I was wrong about what happened this afternoon. I shouldn't have wronged you or scolded you. I apologize to you." Lu Xiaoxue didn't feel awkward, and apologized very smoothly. Then she hurriedly said:
"In the future, you can turn on the radio if you want to listen to it. You can listen to it anytime."
Xia Qingcao didn't expect Lu Xiaoxue's attitude to change so quickly, and she was so nice to him. He was a little uncomfortable for a while.
She, the one who apologized, didn't feel awkward, but he, the one who was apologized, felt embarrassed.
The two returned to the yard. Mai Ergou, who had just escaped, saw Lu Xiaoxue sitting in the car. Seeing that she had wounds on her face, he felt very guilty and hurried over to ask:
"Xiaoxue, are you okay?"
"Hmph!" Lu Xiaoxue turned her head away angrily, without even looking at him, and threw him two words: "Traitor!"
Mai Ergou also knew that he was too disloyal just now, and now he was embarrassed to say anything. He could only watch Xia Qingcao push Lu Xiaoxue away silently.
After pushing the car into the yard and stopping the car, Xia Qingcao then jumped out of the car with an unfinished steamed bun in her hand. Xia Qingcao looked at the steamed bun in her hand, afraid that she would lose it, and said after hesitation:
"Do you still want to eat it? If not, give it to me."
Lu Xiaoxue handed the steamed bun to him without thinking. This cold steamed bun was really not tasty. She had only eaten one reluctantly because she was too hungry.
This scene happened to be seen by Guo Yumei who was out collecting clothes. Seeing that Lu Xiaoxue had a wound on her face and that they were "stealing things", she was immediately shocked and thought that they had a fight. She hurriedly asked:
"Qingcao, you and Xiaoxue had a fight."
Although Lu Xiaoxue was a little bit unruly and willful, she was younger than Qingcao after all, and they still lived in Lu's house. No matter what, her son shouldn't hit someone. How could she explain this to Lu Baichuan?
Before Xia Qingcao could say anything, Lu Xiaoxue on the side quickly waved her hand and said:
"No, no, it wasn't Qingcao who hit you."
"Then the wound on your face..." Guo Yumei asked in confusion.
Lu Xiaoxue naturally wouldn't say that she had a fight with the kids outside. She thought for a moment and said,
"I just fell down accidentally while walking. Brother Qingcao didn't hit me, and he even drove me back home."
When Xia Qingqing came out, she happened to hear what Lu Xiaoxue said. The word "Brother Qingcao" stunned her for a moment. This young lady actually called Qingcao "brother". Was she hallucinating?
It was obvious that Xia Qingcao was also surprised to hear this title, and after being surprised, she felt a little embarrassed.
"Oh, then be careful when you walk next time." The son was always sensible and would not hit Lu Xiaoxue under normal circumstances, because he knew that doing so would make his sister embarrassed, so Guo Yumei did not doubt Lu Xiaoxue's words and continued,
"Xiaoxue, you must be hungry, we packed some delicious food for you, come in and eat."
When Lu Xiaoxue heard the word "delicious", her eyes lit up and she walked quickly into the house. After walking two steps, she stopped and looked at Xia Qingcao and asked,
"Brother Qingcao, do you want to eat more?"
"Ah..." Xia Qingcao was spoiled and surprised, and after reacting, she said hurriedly, "I've eaten, I don't want to eat anymore."
"Oh." Lu Xiaoxue just saw Xia Qingcao asking her for the steamed bun, and thought he was not full, so she asked him if he wanted to eat together. Now hearing him say this, she said nothing more and ran into the house.
Guo Yumei also followed her into the house to help her bring the rice in the pot.
Xia Qingli seemed to have guessed something, walked to Xia Qingcao who was still a little unnatural, lowered his head and whispered in his ear:
"Brother Qingcao, can you tell your sister how you suddenly have a younger sister?"
