Chapter 85 Poor Little Girl



Those who don't like her are all mentally ill. In any case, Lin Xuanjiao will never reflect on herself. She thinks she is great every day and refuses to waste herself.

He put the pig feed into the backpack, carried the basket out of the yard with one hand, and locked the gate as usual.

Lin Xuanjiao walked towards the pigpen. She didn't see anyone along the way. And rightly so! It was the busy farming season, so few people would be out and about.

I'm afraid there's no one in the village who's more leisurely than her! Lin Xuanjiao thought silently.

The way to the pigpen is much faster than going up the mountain. After all, you don’t have to climb a mountain, you just have to walk on a flat road. The pigpen is built at the end of the village, so you can just go through the village.

Lin Xuanjiao observed as she walked. Most of these people's houses were the same, adobe houses covered with black tiles. This made Lin Xuanjiao curious. Wouldn't this structure leak when it rains?

With these questions in mind, Lin Xuanjiao arrived at the pigpen.

This time, Zhang Hongmian didn't say a word when she saw Lin Xuanjiao, and she didn't sit there eating melon seeds. When she saw Lin Xuanjiao coming, she started cleaning the pigpen as if she was busy.

Lin Xuanjiao didn't care about Zhang Hongmian's actions. She simply poured the pig grass in the backpack next to the pigpen, then turned and left.

Zhang Hongmian behind her stared at Lin Xuanjiao with resentment in her eyes. She hated Lin Xuanjiao so much now. She had thought that the girl from the city would be easy to control, but unexpectedly, this little bitch controlled her instead. She had no way to deal with this little bitch. Good luck would not always favor people. She just watched this little bitch get into trouble one day.

Lin Xuanjiao sneezed twice while walking down the street. Looking at the bright sunshine, she touched her nose. She didn't necessarily think she'd catch a cold in this weather! Someone must be scolding her. She knew who it was without even having to think. She had just been to the pigpen, so who else could have been scolding her if not this old acquaintance?

It seems that the conclusion that the first sneeze means thinking and the second sneeze means cursing is quite reasonable, at least that is her current situation.

Lin Xuanjiao didn't care about this matter. As long as Zhang Hongmian didn't make a fuss in front of her, she wouldn't care.

Holding the backpack, Lin Xuanjiao was about to go back to the Youth League Home to put it down, when she met someone on the way back.

To be precise, it was a little girl. The little girl looked very thin, not even reaching Lin Xuanjiao's waist. She was wearing someone's clothes, which were covered with pudding and dirt, and were loose on her body. On her feet were a pair of shoes that belonged to someone else. They were very worn out, making Lin Xuanjiao feel that such shoes might not be found even in a scrap yard. Wearing them, the little girl looked like she was wearing adult shoes, and she had difficulty walking.

It just so happened that this skinny little girl was struggling to carry a bucket of water with both hands, and she was twisting and turning, as if she would be knocked over by the bucket of water at any time. Lin Xuanjiao's heart tightened when she saw this scene, and she hurried forward to take the bucket from the little girl.

There was only half a bucket of water in the wooden barrel. Looking at the traces left by the little girl, Lin Xuanjiao guessed that it might be the little girl who spilled the water as she walked. It turned out that there was only a bucket of water.

Gu Chunni was startled when she saw Lin Xuanjiao suddenly appear. She was still struggling to carry water, but suddenly someone came out to help her carry the water. Gu Chunni didn't know who this beautiful sister in front of her was. She rarely had time to go out to play, and she had endless work to do all day long.

Because she had endless work to do every day and she had no friends, she was very introverted. Seeing Lin Xuanjiao helping her carry the bucket, Gu Chunni wanted to say thank you but she couldn't open her mouth.

Gu Chunni lowered her head sadly. No wonder she was not liked by her family. She even hated her own temper.

Lin Xuanjiao didn't care about these things. She just felt so distressed seeing the little girl carrying a bucket of water at such a young age, so she helped her. But since she had already helped, she might as well be a good person and help the little girl return the water.

So Lin Xuanjiao spoke first: "Little sister, where is your home? I will help you go back."

Hearing Lin Xuanjiao's words, Gu Chunni's first reaction was to refuse. How could she trouble others again? Even though she usually didn't speak, she spoke at this moment: "No... No need, I will go back by myself."

As she spoke, Gu Chunni was about to take the bucket. Lin Xuanjiao looked at the rough, cracked hands and felt a little uncomfortable. How old was this little girl? Her hands had already become like this. It was the first time she had seen so many cracks on such a young child's hands.

Just now, the little girl was carrying the bucket with her cracked hands. Lin Xuanjiao couldn't imagine how painful it was. After all, her feet were just scratched and it hurt so much.

How could she possibly let this person continue carrying the bucket with these injured hands? Seeing the little girl coming to get it, Lin Xuanjiao deliberately raised the water level a little higher, making it impossible for the little girl to reach it. She urged, "Hurry up, hurry up, lead the way, I have things to do! Don't waste my time."

Lin Xuanjiao said this on purpose because she wanted the little girl to know that she was in a hurry, so that the little girl would not insist on snatching the bucket from her.

As expected, after hearing Lin Xuanjiao's words, Gu Chunni no longer insisted on grabbing the bucket, but just walked in front and led the way silently.

Lin Xuanjiao couldn't sit still, so she tried to strike up a conversation with the little girl again: "Little sister, what's your name? How old are you this year?"

The result was only silence. Lin Xuanjiao shut up helplessly. She just thought she had become the king of children, but a child came and broke her fantasy. It seemed that God was against her, right?

Lin Xuanjiao originally thought that the little girl would not be able to answer, but then she heard a childish voice: "Gu Chunni, five years old."

Lin Xuanjiao frowned when she heard this answer. "You're only five years old, and your parents have the heart to let you fetch water by yourself?"

This question did not receive an answer from Gu Chunni for a long time. After waiting for a while, Lin Xuanjiao knew that the little girl would not answer.

But Lin Xuanjiao felt more and more upset. This was the first time she had seen such a miserable child. The children she had met before were considered strong compared to this child.

Lin Xuanjiao thought that since she couldn't bring herself to ask this question, she could try asking other questions. She wanted to find out which family treated their daughter like this. "Little sister, who are the people in your family?"

Gu Chunni finally answered: "There are grandparents, parents, older sister and younger brother."
