Everyone gathered at the entrance of the village to watch the excitement, with smiles on their faces.
"Great! We can go to school soon."
The happiest ones are the children. They didn’t go to work today and gathered here to watch the fun.
Because of the groundbreaking ceremony, the village chief specially asked people to prepare some cooked peanuts and fruit candies to distribute to the onlookers, hoping for good luck.
It was almost noon and the food was ready, but the children gathered around and refused to leave, insisting on having a bowl of braised pork each and drinking some soup.
Because there were too many people, we couldn't chase them away.
In the end, the village chief had no choice but to ask Fugui's wife to add more water to the broth and cook it in two pots.
On the first day of work, let the children try something new.
When it was time to serve the food, the village chief personally sat in charge and scooped a large spoonful for each person who came, while reminding them: "Eat your fill and work hard in the afternoon."
Everyone agreed happily, their faces beaming.
Afraid that it would not be enough, the workers and children were allowed to eat first. In the end, there was still half a pot left, so the village chief had it sent to the village committee so that everyone could have a share.
I didn't expect something to happen.
When Li Qiuju heard that the braised pork was for them, she immediately took a large basin and scooped it full, including two spoonfuls of meat.
Everyone was unhappy when they saw this and started to attack her.
"Li Qiuju, you're the only one who can eat this much. This is all you can eat. How can you eat so much by yourself?"
"Fubao bought this meat. I've raised her for so many years, why can't she eat more?"
Li Qiuju ran with the basin in her hand, but because she ran too fast, she accidentally tripped and fell out with the plate.
As luck would have it, Xinxin and Zhuangzhuang came over and a basin of hot soup spilled on Tian Xin.
"ah!"
Tian Xin screamed and then burst into tears.
Everyone was shocked and rushed out to check what happened. When they saw the soup on Tian Xin's trouser legs, they all blamed Li Qiuju.
"You got greedy, and now you've hurt a child. How can you possibly make it up to him?"
Li Qiuju felt sorry for her soup and cried out in pain. She sat on the ground and cursed at those people.
"It's all your fault. If you hadn't said so much, would I have been able to run so fast? If I hadn't run so fast, I wouldn't have fallen, and I wouldn't have burned the child."
"You are a unreasonable person. I filled such a big basin myself, and I haven't come to you yet, but you are talking about other people's faults. Who made you greedy?"
However, Li Qiuju did not realize her own greed.
Yelling and cursing at everyone.
Tian Xin's tears fell in pain, but no one cared about her.
When Tian Chengcheng walked in, she happened to see this scene. She couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so she hurriedly picked up the bucket next to her and asked Tian Xin to put her legs in it.
"No, it hurts too much." Tian Xin refused and cried.
"Put it in quickly, otherwise it will leave a scar." Tian Chengcheng said, and directly lifted her leg and pressed it into the bucket.
A cool feeling came over me and the burning sensation disappeared.
"How is it?" Tian Chengcheng asked.
Tian Xin continued to cry without saying a word.
At this time, Li Qiuju finally reacted, rushed over and pushed Tian Chengcheng aside.
"What are you doing? Xinxin is already injured, and you asked her to put her leg in the water. Won't that leave a scar?"
Tian Chengcheng was originally thin, and Li Qiuju pushed her casually, causing her to stagger and fall to the ground.
She simply couldn't stand it anymore.
It’s terrible to be uneducated.
The next second, Li Qiuju took Tian Xin out of the bucket and asked, "Daughter, how is your leg?"
"It hurts so much." After leaving the cold water, the burning sensation came back again, and Sweetie said crying.
Li Qiuju got furious when she heard this and started to blame Tian Chengcheng, "Look at what you've done. If Xinxin gets a scar on her leg, I'll never let you go."
Someone had already picked up Tian Chengcheng and was standing in front of her, cursing at Li Qiuju.
"Why are you mad at the kid? You fell down yourself."
"I'm not talking to you, why are you meddling in my business? Get out of here!" Li Qiuju cursed angrily, pointing at Tian Chengcheng's nose. "Just wait, if Xinxin gets a scar, it'll be your fault."
"Hurry up and put her legs in cold water, otherwise it will leave scars."
Although Tian Chengcheng was very angry, she didn't want to see a child suffer.
Li Qiuju didn't listen to her at all. "I think you have bad intentions and you deliberately want to leave a scar on Xinxin."
At this time, Tian Fuhua rushed in and yelled at Li Qiuju, "What are you arguing about? If you get burned, you should put your legs in cold water. This is common sense. If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense. Hurry and put Xinxin's legs in the bucket."
Tian Fuhua was very strong and he grabbed Tian Xin and pushed her back into the bucket.
That action was rude.
Tian Xin almost couldn't help it.
Li Qiuju stood aside and cursed, but seeing that Tian Fuhua was really angry, she didn't dare to say anything.
It’s a good thing that Xinxin is okay. If she was injured, she would definitely not let these people off.
The village chief rushed over after hearing the news, "Kid, are you okay?
"Village chief, you have to make the decision for us. I just served some soup, and they kept scolding me. If I wasn't angry, I wouldn't have fallen down. It wouldn't matter if I fell down once, but Xinxin is still a child. If anything happens to her, how can I face the Tian family?"
The village chief got angry when he heard her words.
"You don't have to cry to me. There are so many eyes watching. You don't have the final say on what happens. It's your fault that the child is suffering."
"How can it be said that I did this? Village chief, you have to be reasonable."
"Be a human being first." The village chief was very angry and drove her aside.
