Not long after entering the Yuejin Production Brigade, the children spotted a small river. It was about five or six meters wide, and as for length... they couldn't quite tell its approximate length after staring at it for a long time. Anyway, it was a long way off, which, to them, was considered a very large river.
Bowen and Boyu, the older brothers, assessed the water's depth and decided it wasn't very deep. However, to prevent any accidents, they instructed the younger ones to stay near the river's edge. He and Boyu slowly entered the water, holding hands and venturing three or four meters ahead. The water was only waist-deep, which was considered relatively safe. Afterward, the younger ones began playing by the water's edge.
This time they brought small fish hooks and bait that Song Jianye had helped prepare. Tian'en took the baited hooks and went to the other side to quietly fish. Baoya, still young, stood aside and watched. Yuanbao and Wenjie ran to the lobster hole to dig out lobsters, while Bowen and Boyu went into the water to catch fish.
The little ones were playing and fishing. Although it took them a long time to catch only two crayfish, they still had a lot of fun.
After a while, Tianen's hook suddenly moved. Baoya, with her sharp eyes, noticed it first and quickly stood up. She pointed her finger into the river and whispered to Tianen, "Fish, fish!"
Tian En also saw it now and quickly swung the fishing rod back, but he saw something falling from the air into the water. The bait was gone and the fish was gone.
"The fish ran away...ran away..." Tian'en's eyes widened, and then he felt a little disappointed. He thought to himself, if he had discovered it earlier, or acted faster, maybe the fish would not have escaped.
Baoya seemed to see Tianen's mood. She squatted down, picked up the bait on the side and handed it to Tianen. She looked at him with her dark eyes. Although she didn't say anything, Tianen felt silently comforted.
"I...I'll try again. I'm sure I'll catch it next time..."
Baoya nodded her head affirmatively, her tone full of belief: "Yeah!"
Tian En regained his confidence, put the bait on the hook, and slowly cast it into the river in front of him. He imitated his father's fishing posture and adjusted the distance of the hook.
Baoya squatted beside it, looking at the river water in front of it with curious eyes. Sometimes she could see small blue-black fish in it.
She wanted to grab it, but she was afraid of scaring Tian En's fish away, so she just stretched out her finger and gently touched the water surface.
Faint ripples spread out, and when Baoya took her fingers away, two small fish swam over happily, swirling their tails before running away. Baoya was happy to see the fish, and felt that the fish inside were particularly cute.
It's just... it's too small. Otherwise, it would be delicious if braised. Thinking about it, Baoya couldn't help swallowing.
Fish:?
The river was quite large, so the fish weren't easy to catch, but the little ones were just there for fun, so they didn't really care. Of course, if they could actually catch some, they would be even happier.
While the kids were playing, Liu Dazhui and a few kids from the same team came over from a nearby distance.
After arriving, Liu Dazhu became unhappy when he saw the people from the Song family, especially when he saw Baoya was there.
"Hey, Dazhu, isn't that your silly sister?"
"Why is she here? Didn't she say she was going to the city?"
"You don't know yet?"
"What do you know?" asked the four or five-year-old child next to him, scratching his head.
"That idiot didn't go to the city. Her mother sold her. I heard she was sold for five dollars."
"Yes, yes, I know about this too. It seems that person came to look for us before." The child who was about six years old on the other side also said.
"Ah? Sold? Why did you sell her?"
"Why else? He must think she's stupid and doesn't want her anymore."
"But aren't those guys over there from the Red Flag Production Brigade? Dazhu, why is your idiot sister hanging out with them?"
"Could it be that they bought it?"
"Spend five dollars to buy a fool, and their family is even more stupid, hahahaha..."
“…”
Hearing them calling him a fool, Liu Dazhu slowly clenched his fists hanging at his side, and his eyes looking at Baoya gradually became full of resentment.
It was like this before. Whenever others saw him, they would always mention his silly sister, which made him unable to even lift his head. Unexpectedly, now that his silly sister had been sold by his mother, he would still be mentioned in the same way.
The more Liu Dazhu thought about it, the angrier he became. However, he did not blame it all on the person who said it, but instead put the blame on Baoya.
It happened that Tianen and Baoya were closer to them, so the angry Liu Dazhu ran over directly.
Go, stand aside and curse at Baoya:
"You jinx, why are you still in our team? Stay away from me. I don't have a sister like you. You are just a fool, a jinx!"
Baoya curled up into a ball and squatted on the ground, looking up at Liu Dazhu blankly. After listening to his words, some tears slowly gathered in her eyes.
"I, I'm not stupid..." Baoya said softly, with a nasal tone in her voice.
"You are a fool. Stay away from me and go away. I don't want to see you!" Liu Dazhu said viciously.
Tian En, who was standing by, was furious when he saw Liu Da Zhu talking about Bao Ya. He didn't care about the fishing rod in his hand anymore, and threw it aside and rushed to Bao Ya to protect her.
"Don't you dare...talk about my sister like that!"
If someone said this to him normally, Tian En would have lowered his head and hidden behind others, clutching the hem of his clothes in sadness and inferiority, not daring to speak or refute. But now that the person being said was Bao Ya, he was extremely angry, but at the same time, he also had great courage and stood in front of Bao Ya to protect her.
"I just said so, so what?"
The other people followed behind and when they saw Tian En standing in front of Bao Ya, they all laughed out loud in mockery: "Hahaha, here comes a stutterer."
"You can't even speak clearly, just like that little fool."
"He said that idiot is his sister? One is a stutterer and the other is an idiot, hahahaha, that makes it all."
"Xiaobao's sister...isn't...stupid. You can't...talk about her like that!" Tian'en felt a little embarrassed, but not because others said he stuttered, but because his stuttering had caused them to say unpleasant things about Baoya. So he tried hard to control himself, speaking slowly and with difficulty to stop himself from stuttering.
"She's not stupid, are we stupid? Hahahahahahaha..."
"I think you've become stupid after staying with this idiot for so long, you stuttering little idiot, hahahaha."
Liu Dazhu didn't say anything else, just stood aside and listened, unable to describe the feeling in his heart. In the past, these words were always spoken to him by others, but now they were spoken to Song Tianen.
Baoya listened to them talking about Tianen, feeling both aggrieved and anxious, and tears welled up in her eyes. She stood up and pulled Tianen's clothes from behind, wanting to pull him to find Bowen and the others.
At this time, Yuanbao, who had just found a lobster, turned around and saw Tianen and Bao on the other side.
There were several strangers standing in front of Ya, and she quickly called out to them, "Brothers":
"Big brother, second brother, look over there at little sister Xiaobao!"
Bowen, who was called, turned his head to look at Baoya and immediately frowned.
"Isn't that Liu Dazhu?" Wenjie asked
"It seems there's also a Yang Licai from our class."
"He's definitely going to bully Little Treasure, let's go over there!"
Bowen Boyu was the first to react and ran towards Baoya and Tianen. At this moment, Tianen and Baoya didn't want to talk to Liu Dazhu and the others anymore and turned around to leave, but they stopped them.
"Don't go, tell us why your family bought this little fool?"
"A girl who loses money and is also a fool."
"That's right, hahahahaha..."
Bowen and Boyu, who were just passing by, happened to hear these two sentences and their faces immediately darkened. Bowen pursed his lips and didn't explode, but Boyu was a quick-tempered person and got angry as soon as he heard it:
"Who are you talking about? Say another word and I'll beat you to death."
Yang Licai and Wang Zhuangzhuang's momentum weakened as they saw Bowen Boyu, who was a head taller than them. "We didn't...we didn't say anything about you."
"I'm not talking about me, and I can't talk about my brother and sister either." Boyu said with a sullen face.
Yang Licai and Wang Zhuangzhuang didn't know Bowen and Boyu, so after hearing what he said, they were afraid to speak. If they met someone of the same age, they might have dared to say a few words, but when faced with Bowen and Boyu, who outnumbered them, they fell silent, fearing a beating.
"Did they bully you?" Boyu glanced at them angrily, then turned to ask Tianen and Baoya. He saw the mist in Baoya's eyes, and his anger intensified.
Boyu was so angry that he rushed forward to hit the man, but Bowen, who was standing beside him, held him back. Although he was also very angry, he was the older than Boyu, so it was not good to hit someone in front of them. Besides, it would cause trouble for their family if he went back.
"This is the last time. If you let us know that you said something you shouldn't have to Xiaobao next time, don't blame us."
After Bowen finished speaking, he pulled Baoya and turned to walk towards the shore.
Boyu looked at a few people angrily, but in the end he did not move and followed behind.
"You...you don't come to our team in the future. We don't welcome you." After saying this, Yang Licai turned around and ran back.
The author has something to say: Baoya: The fish is so cute, it must be delicious if braised~
Fish?
My back hurt so much I couldn't move. I almost had to go to the hospital. Luckily I finished coding quickly. [collapsed]
