"Big sister, what are we having for dinner tonight?" Song Lili asked, even though she could already think of the options.
"Egg porridge, those wild eggs you brought back last time."
Song Lili felt heartbroken. There were only eight eggs, and they were still there. She couldn't bear to eat them and kept them.
"Okay, it'll definitely taste good." What else could she say?
Upon hearing Song Lili's words, Song Yongren's mouth widened in a grin. Years of hard work had left deep wrinkles on his sun-reddened face.
But in those eyes was the purest joy.
Song Lili couldn't help but feel heartbroken again.
She held back, not saying aloud, "If you want to eat it, then eat it. What's the point of leaving it here?"
Even if she told him, Song Yongren wouldn't do it.
She could only hope that she could earn money, so that she could decide what to buy, and Song Yongren would just have to accept it.
Now the family is just waiting for Song Fang to come back so we can have dinner.
However, it was already getting dark, and Song Fang still hadn't returned, so the Song family members started to worry.
They had always told Song Fang to come back early, but she usually came back before dawn, and now it was already dark and she still hadn't returned.
I'm afraid something bad might happen.
Song Lili decided not to wait any longer. "Big sister, I'll go out and look for them. Maybe they're already on their way."
Before Song Yongren could answer, they heard a hoarse and somewhat shrill cry, and the three of them immediately changed their expressions.
Because that was Song Fang's voice.
Song Lili was the first to rush out, running along the path beside her house, which led to the back of the house.
She hadn't run more than a few steps when she saw two small figures coming towards her. They were too far away for Song Lili to see clearly.
Upon closer inspection, it became clear that the two people were holding a rope, with a pig on the other side of the rope, and Song Fang was walking while crying.
Yang Tao was busy pulling the pig and also trying to keep Song Fang from falling. Both of them were in a bit of a mess.
Song Lili quickly went over and picked up Song Fang. She was strong now and could easily lift Song Fang.
"Don't cry, ah, don't cry, tell your sister what happened." Song Lili wiped away Song Fang's tears with her hand, coaxing her gently.
Seeing Song Lili crying even more miserably, Song Fang hugged Song Lili's neck, sobbing uncontrollably, unable to utter a single word.
At this moment, Song Yongren and Song Jianshe also arrived.
Song Yongren took Song Fang from Song Lili's arms and patted her back to comfort her gently, while Song Lili looked at Yang Tao.
Before she could even ask, Yang Tao said anxiously and fearfully in a tearful voice, "Sister Lili, you should go check on your pigs right away. They've been beaten so badly by Luo Yuejin that they can't move."
Song Lili had just noticed that her own pig wasn't there, but Song Fang was crying so hard that she didn't have time to ask.
Hearing Yang Tao say this, Teng's anger flared up. "Luo Yuejin hit you? Did he hit you?" Song Lili quickly asked.
Ever since the wheat threshing days, Song Lili had felt that Luo Yuejin was a ruthless man, and she was afraid that he would beat the two little girls.
Yang Tao burst into tears this time, saying, "He hit Fangfang! He kicked Fangfang and pushed me. It hurt so much!"
Yang Tao had been holding back her tears, but as soon as Song Lili asked, I immediately burst into tears.
"Are you hurt? What about Fangfang? Is she hurt?" Song Lili hurriedly checked Yang Tao, and Song Yongren and Song Jianshe also quickly checked Song Fang.
There's nothing wrong with the starfruit, just a scratch on the palm of my hand, nothing else is wrong.
Song Fang's situation was much worse. The moment Song Yongren touched her shoulder, she cried out, "It hurts...it hurts so much..."
At this, all three of them changed their expressions. Song Yongren said urgently, "Lili, you and Jianshe go check on the pig. I'll take Fangfang home to see where she's hurt."
It's dark now, so I can't see clearly. I'll go home and look under the light.
Song Lili answered "okay," and then grabbed Song Jianshe and ran off.
We can't lose that pig either; it's a mission pig. If something happens to it, not only will we lose our work points, but we might also have to pay compensation.
We need to find it quickly.
The two men took Yang Tao and asked Song Yongren to take Yang Tao's pig back home.
Upon arriving, Song Lili felt an urge to rush to Luo Yuejin's house and slap him to death.
The pig, which reached Song Lili's knees, was lying half-reclined on the ground. No matter how she tried to shoo it up, she couldn't get it up. Song Lili suddenly had a bad feeling.
"Yang Tao, did Luo Yuejin also hunt pigs?"
"They hit me, with a stick they were holding, it was this big."
When Song Lili took a look, wow, it was as thick as Song Fang's arm!
"Did they hit you with sticks?"
Yang Tao shook her head. "No, we just killed the pig."
Song Lili breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, she didn't hit both girls, otherwise...
