"What did you say? Who is your aunt?"
When Wang Xiao'e heard the title "Auntie", she immediately became alert.
Shitou suddenly remembered that he had promised his grandmother not to tell his mother about his uncle's marriage, although he didn't understand why his grandmother was afraid of his mother knowing about it.
But he has listened to his grandmother since he was a child and thinks that whatever his grandmother says is right and he just needs to do as she says.
Shitou covered his mouth and refused to speak.
Wang Xiao'e saw this and yelled at him, "Hurry up and tell me!"
Seeing his mother was about to get angry, Shitou trembled with fear all over, and even Choudan, who was lying on the ground, was frightened and quickly climbed up from the ground, fearing that he would get slapped on the butt if he got up too late.
"No... no, I was wrong, there is no auntie..."
As Shitou spoke, his eyes rolled around, preparing to find the fastest escape route.
Children are not good at hiding their thoughts, and Wang Xiao'e could tell from his little face that he was going to run away.
Often when he was naughty and did something wrong and we were about to beat him up, he would act like this and run away when no one was paying attention.
Wang Xiao'e anticipated his prediction. Just as Shi Tou was about to slip toward the door from her right, Wang Xiao'e rushed over and grabbed his arm.
Then Wang Xiao'e grabbed one of the stones' ears in her hand.
"It hurts...it hurts...Mom, please stop pulling it, it hurts..."
Shitou grimaced in pain and begged Wang Xiaoe for mercy.
"Tell me what's going on, or I'll twist your ears."
After all, he was just a child, and Shitou was frightened by Wang Xiao'e's fright.
"Mom, please stop twisting it. Isn't that enough? Wuuuu..." Shitou cried in pain. He hugged Wang Xiaoe's arms with both hands and tried his best to stop Wang Xiaoe from exerting force.
"Then speak quickly."
"Okay, let me tell you, some time ago, my uncle wrote back saying that he got married..."
"What? Your uncle got married?" Wang Xiao'e was immediately furious when she heard that.
"Who is he married to?"
In fact, when she asked this question, she could already guess who it was.
Didn’t Shitou just say that his grandma went to Gou’s house to visit his little aunt?
Wang Xiao'e remembered that she hadn't seen the fairy-like Su Wan for a long time. Could it be that the two of them were really...
At this time, Shitou spoke with sobs, "My uncle... my uncle married 꺘狗's sister."
Although she already had a guess in her mind, when she heard Shitou say it, she felt as if all the blood in her body was flowing backwards, cooling from top to bottom, and from inside to outside.
He...he got married? He got married without telling her?
All of Wang Xiao'e's hopes were shattered at this moment. She powerlessly loosened her hand that was clutching the stone, and a deep sense of loss completely enveloped her.
As soon as Shitou got himself back, he turned around and ran out quickly. Suddenly, Wang Xiao'e remembered something.
"Shitou, when did this happen? How come I didn't know about it?"
Shitou had already run out of the gate. Knowing that his mother couldn't catch up with him, he retaliated by yelling at Wang Xiao'e, "Of course you don't know. You went to my grandmother's house that day. My grandmother said that you couldn't know. Humph, if I hadn't let it slip just now, you would never know in your life."
After saying this, Shitou turned around and ran. After running a few steps, he bumped into Lu 놌놂 who had just returned from taking a shower.
"Shitou, who are you yelling at?"
Lu 놌놂 straightened Shitou's body and reached out to rub his little head, but suddenly he found that one of Shitou's ears was so red that blood seemed to be dripping out.
"Shi Tou, what happened to your ears?" Lu 놌놂 said as he reached out and touched it.
"It hurts, Grandpa, don't touch my ear." Shitou pushed his grandfather's big hand away.
"What happened? Did you have a fight with someone and got picked on? Who picked you on? Come on, I'll take you to find him."
Shitou pursed his lips and said, "My mother pinched it."
"Why did your mother pull your ears? Are you being disobedient again?"
Lu Xiaoxiao said as he pulled up the stone and walked into the yard, "Come on, apologize to your mother. Your mother has to take care of you and your sisters all day long, and she also has to do housework. You are so old now, you should be sensible, why do you keep making your mother angry all day long?"
As Lu 놌놂 talked to his grandson, he reasoned with him. Shitou said nothing and followed his grandfather into the yard.
In the yard, Choudan and Yaya were staring blankly at the door with anger. They had seen Wang Xiao'e getting angry with their brother just now.
Normally, Wang Xiao'e was at home during the day. She was not used to children and would beat them if they provoked her, so they were still very afraid of her.
Seeing Wang 놌놂 coming back, the little stinky boy waved his two little hands and rushed towards his grandfather.
"Grandpa, Grandpa, Grandpa..." Stinky Egg flapped his little arms and kept shouting, just like a cute little duck.
Lu 놌놂 squatted down, waiting for Choudan to throw himself into his arms, and then he lifted him up high.
The shadow that had just gathered in Stinky Egg's heart disappeared immediately, and he burst into laughter.
Yaya watched with envy from the side, walked up to her grandfather, hugged his legs and shook them, although she didn't say anything, she was extremely envious in her heart.
Lu and Li Dani never favored boys over girls and treated all their children equally.
Seeing that his granddaughter also wanted to play, he lifted her up a few times and then let her go. When he was pinching Yaya's armpits and was about to lift her up, Wang Xiao'e suddenly came out of the house.
She had a large bag wrapped in a bed sheet slung over her shoulders. Her face was stretched out and her eyes were red. She walked straight past him as if she didn't see Lu 놌놂.
When Lu saw that something was wrong, he quickly let Yaya go.
"Xiao E, what are you doing?" Lu 놌놂 said as he chased after her.
Wang Xiao'e continued to walk out without saying a word. Lu 놌놂 was a man, and he was also a father-in-law, so he couldn't reach out to pull her back. He shouted to Shitou and Yaya, "You two, go and pull your mother back."
Shitou still remembered that Wang Xiao'e had pinched his ears just now, so he was a little reluctant, but he finally went up with a pout.
After all, Yaya was a girl, and she was still attached to Wang Xiaoe. She ran up to her, grabbed her arm, and cried to her, "Mom, don't be angry. Go back. I will never make you angry again."
She thought her mother was angry with her brother Shitou, and kept trying to persuade her.
Shitou pursed his lips tightly and heard what his sister said. Although he knew that his mother was not leaving because of him, he still apologized to her.
"Mom, I was wrong. I will never make you angry again. Please don't leave."
When Choudan was still young, he couldn't live without his mother. Although he was still young, he could see clearly that his mother was going to leave him. He immediately felt uneasy and rushed towards Wang Xiaoe, shouting.
"Mommy, mommy, hug me, mommy, hug me..."
The two older children each held one of her arms, and the younger one hugged her legs.
Wang Xiao'e was also very upset. These were all flesh that fell from her body, so she naturally felt sorry for them, but...
When she thought about the fact that the whole family knew about the second son's marriage, even the children knew about it but kept it a secret from her alone, she threw the bag on her shoulders to the ground, sat down on the ground and started crying.
She didn't dare to cry too loudly, she just sobbed quietly, mainly because she was afraid that the neighbors would hear her. She thought that the villagers didn't know that she was missing her brother-in-law.
"Xiao'e, what happened? Did you have any quarrel with your mother? Don't cry, tell me what happened first. I'm here at home. If it's really your mother's fault, don't worry, I will give you justice."
After Lu 놌놂 finished speaking, he shouted into the house, "Dani, Dani, come out here."
