"You're not mistaken." Liang Qi saw the child slowly testing the door, and couldn't imagine what made the child afraid to leave the house.
Liang Qi slowly stepped forward and whispered, "Yaya, auntie sees you, can you come out for a moment?"
After all, the adults were still inside, and you couldn't just go into someone else's house casually. Liang Qi coaxed the child gently.
"Yaya! Why have you become so dark? Where is your mother?" he asked in a loud voice, and walked towards the main house.
"Don't come over!" A delicate shout came from the room. It wasn't as full of energy as usual, but seemed to carry a hint of illness.
Sun Huimin heard a scolding voice in the room. Isn’t this Chen Xiuying?
The child's cry gradually grew louder: "Woo woo, Mommy, I'm so hungry and my stomach hurts. Just drink a little water and it will be fine."
The child's crying sounded weak and feeble, like a sick cat.
"Chen Xiuying, what are you doing hiding in the house? The child is crying with hunger. How can you be so cruel? When did you become a stepmother?"
"Auntie Liang, can you give me some water?" The child wanted to break through the door and was about to rush out.
Chen Xiuying pulled him back, and the child's dark hands held on to the door tightly, but a child's strength was no match for an adult's, and his hands were forced to slide down little by little.
The door was locked directly by the people inside.
"Mom, I'll just drink a little bit, just a little bit. I won't go out. I won't go out sick. Woo woo, mom."
The child's repeated cries of "Mom" are so heartbreaking that they make one cry.
"Chen Xiuying, let go of the child. Is there any mother like you? Huh? Did you hear that?"
Sun Huimin yelled angrily, not noticing the illness the child was talking about, but Liang Qi noticed it.
Just ignore it and run away.
Sun Huimin looked at Liang Qi running away. What's wrong with this woman? Didn't she see the hungry child crying for his mother?
She is also a cruel woman.
He continued to knock on the door and refused to give up until the person inside came out.
Liang Qi ran back home. There was still food at home, and they had just made a big vegetable pancake for lunch.
She hurriedly opened the door and the daughter circled around the chickens, watching her mother hurried into the kitchen.
"Mom?" the girl shouted at Liang Qi.
Liang Qi didn't notice his daughter either. He just hurriedly picked up the vegetable pancakes on the chopping board, left one piece for his daughter, and put the rest into a small basket woven from wheat straw.
He took the bucket again and scooped half a bucket from the water tank with a ladle.
After thinking about it, he found some boiled water prepared for his daughter in the kitchen, so he found a bottle that had previously contained glucose injection, removed the rubber stopper, rinsed it, filled it with boiled water, and put it in the basket.
He hurriedly carried the half-filled bucket of water and the small basket out the door.
Go straight to Chen Xiuying's house.
Chen Xiuying refused to let Sun Huimin enter the house.
Sun Huimin said all sorts of things, but the person inside didn't move at all. In contrast, she herself was already pulling her own hair impatiently.
"Chen Xiuying, you can handle not eating or drinking, but the child is so young and screaming with hunger. Can you bear it? Ah!"
Chen Xiuying listened to her friend's words outside the door, looked at the child who was lying on the crack of the door and yelling, "Mom, just a small bite, okay?" A trace of pity flashed across her numb eyes, but it was just a flash.
The first thing he said was a hoarse voice: "Hui Min, hurry up and leave! Don't stay here."
"If you don't explain clearly, I won't leave. We're the only three of us in this village who have grown up together. If we just leave like this, do you think we're still human?"
