The girl still shook her head, but looking at Guan Yao'er's miserable appearance, she said kindly: "Sister, if you don't mind, you can rest at my house for a while."
"really?"
Guan Yaoer almost laughed out loud when she didn't expect such a good thing to happen. But then she remembered that the girl's father had turned into a ghost. She asked naively, "Little girl, is there a ghost in your house?"
The normally serious little girl couldn't help but roll her eyes at Guan Yao'er's words. She clarified, "There's no such thing in my family. And even if there is, that person is my father. My father was very kind when he was alive. He always helped others, so I believe he wouldn't hurt you."
"Okay, okay, I'm just saying this casually, don't take it seriously. Now, have you finished burning the paper money? If you're done, I'll go home with you.
By the way, kid, what's your name?"
"My name is Xiaohua, sister, what's yours?"
"I?"
Guan Yaoer felt a little guilty about having lied about her identity, so she just gave a fake name.
"My name is Wang Xiaotu, you can call me Sister Xiaotu."
Xiaohua took Guan Yaoer in her belief and gave her a look. She praised her sincerely, "Little Rabbit Sister, you are very pretty, and you are wearing a white dress. You look just like the rabbit of Chang'e in the sky. You must like little rabbits too, right?"
"I'm good-looking and I look like a rabbit?"
Guan Yaoer touched her face in surprise. When she touched her smooth face, she realized that the scarf she used to cover her face was gone.
With an embarrassed smile, Guan Yaoer patted Xiaohua's shoulder.
"This little girl is really thoughtful. Hahaha, yes, I really like rabbits. You like them too, right? How about I give you one when I have the chance in the future?"
"Send it to me?"
The excited face just a moment ago dimmed in just a second, and Xiaohua refused in a low voice.
"No need, I... I can't even support myself now, how can I raise a rabbit? Sister Rabbit, I'm done here, I'll take you back to my house to rest."
With her head lowered in frustration, Xiaohua walked ahead.
Guan Yaoer didn't notice Xiaohua's unhappiness. With a curious expression on her face, she walked into this strange village.
When the two returned to Xiaohua's home together, Zhao Chunlian got a bag of millet from somewhere and put it on the platform to dry.
Upon seeing Xiaohua, Zhao Chunlian immediately said, "Little girl, look at what this is! This is pure white rice, weighing a full 100 kilograms. Tell that weird sister of yours to stop saying we're eating your rice for free. Your uncle and I are definitely capable of supporting you."
Xiaohua had no idea how to respond to Zhao Chunlian's words. She stood timidly behind Guan Yaoer.
Only then did Zhao Chunlian notice Guan Yaoer's presence.
After looking her up and down, Zhao Chunlian asked Guan Yaoer a series of questions: "Who are you? Are you from this village too? What brings you to my house?"
Guan Yaoer didn't know what Zhao Chunlian's identity was, but she could tell that this somewhat mean-looking woman also lived in this house.
Out of politeness, she smiled and replied, "Big sister..."
"Wait, you call me Big Sister. How can you tell that I'm older than you?"
Zhao Chunlian stood side by side with Guan Yao'er, unwilling to accept the situation. She tugged at her skirt and said with displeasure, "It seems we are about the same age. I don't want to take advantage of you!"
