Before Hua Shi could ask, Mrs. Li from the side room heard the loud crying and started cursing at the top of her voice.
“Wu, wuwu…wuwu…”
The crying sounds coming from the next room were obviously being muffled, suppressing the sound of the crying that was about to burst out loudly.
"Don't cry, don't cry! Don't cry!!"
The little girl's voice was deliberately lowered, and it was faint, but Hua Shi heard it clearly.
"Ouch, ouch...my stomach...hurts..."
The response from behind was too vague, and Hua Shi couldn't hear it clearly. It was as if someone was holding him down and preventing him from speaking.
Li's cursing voice could be heard through the wall. "Are you crying at this hour? What are you crying for? Stop crying, you idiot! If you cry again, I'll pull out your tongue!"
After Li scolded and cursed, the room next door suddenly became quiet.
After waiting for a while, the noise in Li's room finally quieted down.
Hua Shi frowned slightly, thought about it, stood up, opened the door, and walked over quietly.
"Knock knock—" There were two muffled knocks on the door.
Hua Shi lowered his voice and asked, "I just heard Xiaoying crying? What happened?"
Xiaoying is usually very well behaved. Unless something happens, she won't cry like this...
The room was silent for a moment, and Hua Yu's cold voice came from inside, "...It's none of your business!"
Hua Shi said lightly, "I didn't ask you, I asked Xiaoying."
"Xiaoying is none of your business!"
Hua Shi: “…”
After waiting for a while, there was no other sound in the room, so Hua Shi walked away embarrassedly.
What kind of thing is this? It's like putting your best foot forward and getting rejected...
I don't know if Huaying ate raw bamboo shoots this morning and now she has a stomachache...
The night was dark, with cicadas chirping and frogs croaking outside, mixed with the barking of dogs. The round moon hung high in the night sky, dotted with stars.
Around four o'clock in the morning...
Hua Shi was sleeping soundly when she heard the muffled crying of a child coming from the next room.
“Wu, wuwu…wuwu…”
There was a faint voice mixed in with the crying. Although the voice was lowered, it was still audible. The tone was not very good, as if someone was scolding.
“Wuwuwu…”
The crying became clearer and clearer, and Hua Shi suddenly woke up.
The sound came from the next room. It must be Huaying crying...
"Stop crying... What are you crying for..."
There was another vague sound coming from the next room, accompanied by an impatient rebuke.
"Creaky--" The old wooden door next door was pushed open. In the silent night, the sound was particularly harsh.
After a burst of hurried footsteps, the wooden door of the courtyard was gently pushed open, and the baby's muffled crying gradually faded away.
Hua Shi hurriedly got up, pushed open the door to check, and asked in a low voice, "What's going on?"
The little figure guarding the gate shuddered in fear when he heard the sudden sound, turned his head and glared over, and his childish voice rang out crisply, "What's it to you?!"
Hua Xiao imitated the tone of his second brother Hua Yu, and his childish words were full of coldness.
Hua Shi waited until his eyes adjusted to the darkness before groping his way over.
In the second half of the night, the originally round moon was hidden behind the dark clouds. There was no other light in the sky and earth except for a few stars.
It was not easy for Hua Shi to see Hua Xiao's little face clearly. The little girl snorted coldly, and her eyes, which were shining with a faint light in the dark night, were full of resentment.
The little girl said, "It's all your fault! Xiaoying said it all. He had a stomachache because you gave him poisonous bamboo shoots. That's why he kept crying in pain..."
The little girl said this with tears in her eyes and choked up as she uttered a cruel word, "If anything happens to Xiaoying, I will definitely kill you!"
Hua Xiao gritted his teeth, his tone of resentment growing stronger and stronger.
When Hua Shi heard it, he understood instantly.
As expected, eating those raw bamboo shoots this morning caused trouble...
Hua Shi helplessly held his forehead and asked, "Where's Xiaoying?"
No matter how you look at it, this was negligence on her part. She had left a five-year-old baby, who knew nothing, to be skinned where she couldn't see. The starving little one definitely didn't know what was edible and what wasn't, so she stuffed everything into her stomach...
Hua Xiao looked at Hua Shi with an even more ferocious and frightening look. His pupils dilated little by little in the darkness. He looked at Hua Shi in horror without saying a word.
Some of the things she just said were deliberately meant to deceive her!
Xiaoying didn't say much, and he never said that it was this bad woman who made him eat the poisonous bamboo shoots. He just said that he kept complaining of stomachache after eating the bamboo shoots.
But today, only this bad woman and Xiaoying were at home. She guessed that apart from this bad woman, there was no one else who would do such a vicious thing.
It can't be the grandpa lying in the master bedroom who can't get out of bed!
She hadn't necessarily accepted that this vicious woman was responsible for Xiaoying's death, but when she tested her just now, the expression on her face and her tone of voice, without any denial, proved that Xiaoying had become what she was now! It was all done by this vicious woman!
Hua Xiao gnashed his teeth in hatred, "Hua Shi! I will never let you go! You have a black heart! You just want to kill us! You made Big Brother's leg lame, and made Xiaoying unable to speak! And now you want to poison Xiaoying to death!"
The eight-year-old girl has clear language logic, has her own certain judgment ability, and knows the difference between right and wrong.
As far as she could remember, the person she hated the most was this vicious sister, followed by that sarcastic old woman, especially Hua Shi. She wanted to make this vicious guy pay the price.
Just like what it says in the book, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth!
