Chapter 280 They are all liars
Jiang Xiaoxiao took some time to go to the place where she bought groceries last time.
She was still thinking about Bai Yiyi.
Now that she has met him and has the opportunity to lend a hand, she will not give up Bai Yiyi.
I walked around for a long time but didn't see anyone.
Jiang Xiaoxiao was disappointed.
But there is no place to ask.
wrong!
The vegetable salesman that day seemed to know about Bai Yiyi's family situation from his words, so does he know where Bai Yiyi lives?
Jiang Xiaoxiao took a walk and went to the vegetable stall.
Sure enough, it was the same salesperson, wearing an apron and sleeves, arranging the dishes. The lunch rush had already passed at this time.
People go home to cook.
It’s time for them to close their vegetable stalls.
He had a look of despair on his face and was cleaning up the place in a perfunctory manner.
As soon as Jiang Xiaoxiao appeared, the man looked unhappy.
It's already this late and you're still here to buy groceries. Are you really trying to make yourself unhappy?
He rolled his eyes, "We're sold out today, please come early this afternoon."
"Comrade, I want to ask you something."
Jiang Xiaoxiao had long figured out that the person in front of her had a typical petty-bourgeois mentality of taking advantage of others. If she asked with nothing in her hands, she would definitely be turned away.
Sure enough, the man glared with an impatient look on his face.
"What's wrong with you? I'm a vegetable seller, not a policeman. If you have any problems, please contact the police. I don't have that responsibility."
She had to throw and smash her broken vegetables, which were mostly leftovers from people's pick and choose, and there was nothing good.
They will all feel depressed.
This is what is called a difficult little devil.
Jiang Xiaoxiao was not angry either. It would be really unfair to herself to be angry with such a person.
"Comrade, you've been tired for a long time. I just want to ask you a question. Where does Bai Yiyi, the girl who picked up vegetable leaves that day, live? I want her address. If you have it, tell me. I have fresh apples here."
When I picked up the net bag, there were indeed three big red apples inside.
This was just sold to Jia Shu, and now I have to give it to this woman.
The salesperson saw that he was getting three apples for free by asking a question, which was a good thing.
"Why are you asking Bai Yiyi what she does at home? Let me tell you, if you want to do something illegal, I can't help you."
He said this, but his eyes were fixed on the apple.
This is a good trick of playing hard to get.
Jiang Xiaoxiao has to admire him, she is not as good as him.
The elder sister is really experienced. Looking at her methods, I still have to learn from her.
"Comrade, you didn't know how to go! Forget it, don't go and waste my apples. I'll go ask someone else."
Jiang Xiaoxiao left so decisively.
The salesperson was anxious.
Her apple!
How can I let go of something that I got for free these days?
He hurriedly stopped Jiang Xiaoxiao and said, "Comrade, I know where Bai Yiyi's house is. I'm going home soon, so I'll take you there. You promised to give me all three apples!"
Jiang Xiaoxiao nodded. It was just three apples. It wouldn’t be a big deal.
I didn't spend much money.
If small favors can get things done, I'm willing to do them.
The salesperson immediately moved quickly, pushed the vegetable stall inside in a few seconds, took off her apron sleeves and left.
"Comrade! Come with me. Bai Yiyi's house is just two streets away from mine. I saw you helping that girl the other day. Who are you to her?"
Curiosity never dies.
"Sister, I don't know her!"
This is the truth, they don’t really know each other now.
You’re kidding!
The salesperson didn't say anything, just thinking that the other party didn't want to tell him. If he didn't want to tell him, then he didn't have to tell him. He was doing it for the peaches.
He took the person to the door and pointed to the yard.
"That's Bai Yiyi's house. Can you give me the apple?"
Thinking about apples.
Jiang Xiaoxiao was not stingy and handed it to the person.
I went to Bai Yiyi's house and knocked on the door.
The salesperson immediately left with the apples.
"Who is it?"
When the door opened, it was a middle-aged woman.
"Who are you looking for?"
Looked Jiang Xiaoxiao up and down.
Jiang Xiaoxiao saw the wreaths in the yard.
There are also black mourning bands on women's arms.
This is……
"I'm looking for Bai Yiyi!"
"Who are you? Yiyi, someone is looking for you!"
He looked at Jiang Xiaoxiao with confusion.
"I'm Feng Chun's distant cousin, and I'm passing by to see the child."
Feng Chun is the name of Bai Yiyi's biological mother. Since she can say the name, she must not be an outsider. The middle-aged woman obviously relaxed her guard immediately.
"I should have asked you to come in and sit for a while. What a coincidence! My parents-in-law just passed away and the funeral was just over. It's not appropriate."
Jiang Xiaoxiao smiled and shook her head, "It's okay! I'll burn some incense for the old man to show my appreciation."
The middle-aged woman should be Bai Yiyi's aunt. She has said it clearly, so she won't stop you from coming in.
I thought that this girl was still too young and didn't know the taboos.
Jiang Xiaoxiao saw Bai Yiyi, a child who was only two days old. She was so thin that she seemed like she would fall down if the wind blew.
I saw Jiang Xiaoxiao sway and then fall down.
Jiang Xiaoxiao hurriedly picked the person up.
After carefully feeling the pulse, he asked, "What's wrong? This child hasn't eaten since yesterday. He kneeled in front of the coffin without eating or drinking. The old lady and the old man are having a funeral today, and this child almost died from crying.
Nothing can happen!"
The middle-aged woman sighed and wanted to take Bai Yiyi over.
Jiang Xiaoxiao turned around and carried the person into the house.
The room was in a mess.
Everything was in a mess.
It seemed that before Jiang Xiaoxiao came, the middle-aged woman was tidying up things.
The middle-aged woman blushed when she saw it and said, "He is packing up. We want to take Yiyi back to the countryside. We don't want to live here anymore." Yiyi refused, but there was nothing we could do. We are all farmers and we can't survive here.
Her mother hasn't come out yet, and her father is nowhere to be found. There's nothing we can do."
They were also unwilling to take on this hot potato, but there was nothing they could do.
Jiang Xiaoxiao pinched the child's philtrum, and Bai Yiyi opened her eyes!
When he saw Jiang Xiaoxiao, he burst into tears.
He looked as if he had suffered a great injustice.
The middle-aged woman was left aside and looked embarrassed.
"This child has only seen us a few times and is not close to us. I'll go get her something to eat. You two can have a chat and try to persuade the child. We can't do anything about it."
Sighing, they didn't want to take Bai Yiyi back, but Bai Yiyi had no relatives now, and they, as her uncle and aunt, couldn't really just ignore her.
But the child was really not close to them and didn't say a few words to them in two days.
They really have no choice.
Jiang Xiaoxiao held the little child in her arms. The five-year-old child cried and put his arms around her neck. Jiang Xiaoxiao could feel the child's sadness.
yes.
Bai Yiyi said that in her previous life, she became what she was later because she could not bear the blow and was unwilling to follow her uncle and aunt to the countryside.
So he ran away secretly, but he didn't expect that he would end up in the hands of human traffickers.
Touching Bai Yiyi's hair, and patting her back gently.
"Don't cry! Don't cry. Grandpa and grandma are watching you in heaven. They will feel bad when they see you crying. Do you want them to be sad? Our Yiyi is a good child. She definitely won't bear to see grandpa and grandma sad, right?"
Bai Yiyi stopped sobbing, and her eyes, like water, were filled with expectation and hope.
"Sister, are you telling the truth? Are grandpa and grandma really watching me? Then why don't they come back? Yiyi misses them? I want them to come back."
She didn’t understand what the adults meant by death, but she just knew that her grandparents were gone.
They always said something she couldn't understand, saying that her grandparents didn't care about her.
Nope.
Her grandparents love her the most and would never ignore her.
They are all liars.
