Chapter 205
"I, I saw Xiaohui also returned to the classroom..." Liu Lingling said in a low voice.
As soon as these words came out, everyone turned their attention to Yu Xiaohui. Yu Xiaohui suddenly became flustered, stuttering a little: "I, I was... thirsty, so I came back to drink some water."
Xu Nianbai asked, "When you returned to the classroom, was your bracelet still in your desk?"
"I... I don't know, I didn't look at it. I just came back to drink some water and then left." Yu Xiaohui didn't dare to look at Xu Nianbai when she spoke.
Xu Nianbai was an adult after all, and he knew immediately that the problem lay with Xiaohui. Her coming back to drink water was nothing special, but her guilty behavior clearly indicated something was amiss.
After all, Yu Xiaohui was only a few years old and her mind was still immature. Before Xu Nianbai could ask a few questions, she broke down and cried as she told the whole story.
"I... I saw Song Yunlai walking towards this side, and I... I followed her, and then put my bracelet into her schoolbag... Wuuuu, I'm sorry, I... I just..." Yu Xiaohui cried particularly hard. After all, she admitted what she had done in front of the whole class. She didn't need to think about how everyone would look at her in the future.
However, what she is experiencing now is just what Baoya almost went through when she was slandered.
The classmates looked at her, their brows furrowed. However, none of them said anything. But the younger Song children were different. Seeing how she had deliberately framed Baoya, putting her bracelet in Baoya's bag and claiming she had stolen it, they were furious.
"Why do you treat my little sister like this?"
"How can you be so evil that you can do such a thing!"
"If she hadn't been discovered, what would happen to my sister in the future?"
"You know how to cry now, but what were you doing when my sister was crying? What did my sister do to provoke you that you would do such a thing to slander her!"
The children were furious. Even seeing Yu Xiaohui crying miserably, they didn't show any sympathy. Yes, she was crying now that she'd been caught, but what about before? What about when Baoya was wronged and slandered? Just thinking about that made them feel no sympathy for her.
Yu Xiaohui cried so hard that she couldn't speak.
However, although the whole story of the theft was now clear, Xu Nianbai still didn't understand why Yu Xiaohui did these things.
Things are targeting Baoya. After all, the school has just started and Baoya is very sensible and well-behaved in class. Logically, she should not do anything to offend Yu Xiaohui. So, Xu Nianbai asked:
"Then why did you do all this to make everyone think Song Yunlai stole something?"
Yu Xiaohui didn't say anything for a while. Xu Nianbai continued to ask twice, and the younger ones also asked: "Tell me, why are you slandering my sister?"
Finally, Yu Xiaohui sobbed and finally said: "Because, because she is popular, everyone likes her, no one pays attention to me... and, and tomorrow we will be selecting class monitors, I want to be the class monitor, but... Song Yunlai is popular, I'm afraid she will be the class monitor, wuwuwu..."
Yu Xiaohui started crying again: "Wow, I didn't intend to do this, but I couldn't think of any other way, and then... then I thought that as long as I let everyone think that she stole something, she wouldn't be elected as the class monitor tomorrow. Wuwuwu, I, I didn't expect..."
Hearing that this was the reason, everyone in the room frowned even more tightly, and even Xu Nianbai didn't know what to say.
Only Yuanbao was furious. He shouted, "You can't compare to my sister, so you do this on purpose. No wonder no one likes you. No one will like to play with someone like you, let alone choose you as class monitor!"
Yu Xiaohui just covered her face and cried without saying a word.
Xu Nianbai sighed inwardly, looked at Baoya, whose eyes were red, and said, "Yu Xiaohui, you were wrong about this matter. You almost wronged Song Yunlai. You have to apologize to her."
Although Yu Xiaohui felt awkward, she had no other choice but to apologize to Baoya: "I'm...I'm sorry."
Baoya looked at Yu Xiaohui and pursed her lips to suppress the urge to cry. She wanted to speak, but the words were a little hard to come by. She felt really wronged. Thinking about what had just happened, she couldn't help but want to cry. So, even though Yu Xiaohui apologized to her now, she couldn't say the words of forgiveness.
Baoya turned around and hid behind Tianen, burying her face in Tianen's back. Boyu Wenjie and the others felt distressed when they saw this.
Seeing that it was getting late, Xu Nianbai said, "It's already late today. You all should go home quickly. We will deal with the rest tomorrow."
Then everyone in the class left, and Boyu and the others also left with Baoya. Li Qingyan was waiting at the door.
, when I saw them coming out, I took them home together.
On the way, Yuanbao was still a little angry when he thought about it, and the children kept comforting Baoya. Baoya was very upset at first, but gradually she saw that Yuanbao and Tianen were very worried about her and were trying to make her happy, so she gradually stopped thinking about it.
After returning home, Yuanbao went to Feng Guizhi to tell her about this matter, and hoped that Feng Guizhi could fry an egg for Baoya to comfort her.
"That person is so mean. He was jealous of Xiaobao's popularity, so he deliberately hid the bracelet in Xiaobao's schoolbag and said that Xiaobao stole it. It really makes me so angry."
Feng Guizhi and the others all looked unhappy after hearing what happened today. However, the other party was only a child after all, and as adults, they couldn't say anything harsh.
Chen Xiuxiu sighed and said, "How old is she? How could she do such a thing?"
"I hope this incident will teach her a lesson and she will correct her mistakes in the future."
"Yuanbao, Tianen, you brothers did a great job today. Little sister Xiaobao is still young, so you have to take good care of her in the future."
"Yes, today is really thanks to Yuanbao and Boyu. Otherwise, our little girl Baoya would have suffered so much."
Yang Yulan didn't say anything. She looked in Baoya's direction, her eyes full of heartache. Although she didn't see it with her own eyes, just hearing it made her feel very uncomfortable.
Especially since she had done nothing wrong but was forced to go through this.
"Little Sister Bao, you like to eat this, here you go, eat more."
"Grandma also fried you an egg today, come and try it and see if it's delicious."
"Little Sister Xiaobao, do you want to eat anything tomorrow?"
The younger brothers, considering Baoya's mood, couldn't help but take care of her. Baoya's sadness had dissipated at this moment. She smiled softly at her brothers and then buried her head in her food.
The next day, Xu Nianbai lectured Yu Xiaohui again. After all, the impact of this incident was indeed not good. She must deeply understand her mistakes and avoid making the same mistake again in the future.
Afterwards, the class leadership elections continued as usual, though neither Yu Xiaohui nor Baoya took up any positions. Xu Nianbai had originally said that everyone would vote, but the final decision would be made by him after comprehensive consideration.
Even though there are really many today
Everyone had chosen Baoya as the monitor, but he probably wouldn't agree. She was too young, and her well-behaved personality made her unsuitable for the role. As for Yu Xiaohui, it was more her own fault. If it weren't for what happened yesterday, she might have had a chance.
Xu Nianbai handled the situation well, and Baoya gradually forgot about it. However, she stopped interacting with Yu Xiaohui after that. The classmates all knew what Yu Xiaohui had done, and they gradually distanced themselves from her.
Xu Nianbai was also aware of this matter, but he couldn't do anything to intervene. After all, this was Yu Xiaohui's own mistake, and she had to bear the consequences herself.
......
The days after that returned to normal. The people in the Song family went to work and school as usual, and their lives were simple and comfortable.
Back in the Hongqi Production Brigade, everyone was living their own lives, going to work every day and chatting in their spare time. However, every time they did, they would inevitably talk about the Song family.
"It's almost October now, and there's been no movement from the Song family. Are they living well in the county town?"
"Yeah, if he was really having a bad time, he should be back by now, right?"
"I think we should stop worrying about them. After all, they are getting paid in the county town, and we only rely on the food from the fields."
"yes."
As he spoke, the others nodded in agreement. It was useless for them to say more, as they had no idea whether the other person was living a good or bad life.
However, at this time, one of the wives lowered her voice and whispered, "By the way, do you think the Song family's improved luck seems to be related to the girl they bought?"
"What do you mean?" As soon as these words came out, the wives and mothers-in-law around were stunned and came up to ask.
"Haven't you noticed? The Song family's life has improved since they bought that girl from her family."
