Chapter 55: Humiliation



"Dog?" Bai An frowned when he saw there was a living creature in the bag, and reached out to take the gray puppy out.

But Lu Jinan blocked Bai An's hand from moving forward, shook his head at Bai An, and picked up the dog himself.

The puppy barked weakly a few times in Lu Jinan's hands and then fell silent.

Lu Jinan carefully checked the condition of the dog and saw that only its fur was a little dirty and there was nothing else wrong with it, so he handed the dog to Bai An.

"Be careful, don't get bitten."

Bai An nodded and carefully placed the back of his hand in front of the dog's nose. Seeing that the puppy sniffed forward and had no intention of attacking, Bai An felt relieved and held it in his arms.

"Brother, what should we do now?"

Lu Jinan glanced at the puppy in Bai An's arms, then looked at the village entrance not far away, hesitated for a while and said, "Let's go back first."

Bai An nodded.

"Mom." Bai An walked to the gate and called Wanqing. When Wanqing heard it, she stuck her head out of the kitchen and asked, "Is Dad back?"

...

...

Bai An shook his head and said, "No, my brother and I picked up a dog on the roadside and came back first."

Wanqing frowned, walked to Bai An's side, glanced at the gray and white puppy, and said disapprovingly: "This may be someone else's lost dog, and they just brought it here like this. How worried they must be."

Bai An heard this and looked up at Lu Jinan.

Lu Jinan shook his head, took the dog from Bai An's arms, and said softly, "Mom, when we picked it up, it was in a bag, and the bag was tied in a knot."

Wanqing was stunned for a moment, and then she said, "Feed it first. It must be too hungry to cry out now."

As he said that, he went into the house and made some softer food for the puppy. After cooling it down, he let Bai An feed it to it bit by bit.

Looking at the puppy wolfing down the food in front of him, Bai An held it in his arms with pity. After Bai An touched its little belly and saw that it was almost done, he returned the bowl.

Bai An, who was holding the puppy, kept looking towards the door hesitantly. Lu Jinan noticed and asked, "What's wrong?"

Bai An looked at the puppy in his arms and whispered, "I'm waiting for Dad to come back."

"Is this what you're worried about?" Lu Jin'an squatted in front of Bai An, touched her head and whispered, "Are you afraid that dad will come back and see the puppy and won't want to keep it?"

Bai An nodded hesitantly.

"Don't be afraid." Lu Jinan smiled, "Dad will agree."

Hearing Lu Jinan's assurance, Bai Anan calmed down and said in a brisk tone: "Then let's give it a bath with solar water tomorrow."

"The sun water is comfortable and soft."

Wanqing, who had just entered the room, heard Bai An's words and said with a doting smile: "I'm already thinking about giving it a bath, so let Dad make a small house for it later."

"Is it okay?" Bai An looked at the dog happily and said, "You are a member of our family now. On the first day after you take a bath, you can sleep with me."

As he spoke, Lu Demin walked in from outside and was stunned for a moment when he saw the puppy in Bai An's arms.

"Where did the puppy come from?"

"I found it on the roadside. Dad, you will agree to keep it, right?" Bai An approached Lu Demin and asked, "You will agree, right?"

Lu Demin looked at Bai An's expectant eyes and smiled, "Sure, but you have to take good responsibility for it."

"Of course." Bai An turned around with the puppy in his arms, then came to his father and begged, "Then Dad, can you make a little nest for it?"

Seeing that Bai An didn't come to him for this kind of thing, Lu Jinan, who was standing by, pulled her to his side with some amusement and said, "You can also come and ask me."

"Can you make a little nest for it?"

Lu Jinan nodded and agreed with a smile, "Just after dinner."

"Thank you, brother." Bai An gently picked up the puppy's paw and waved to Lu Jinan, and said softly again: "Thank you, brother."

“Ouch.”

Hearing the puppy's appropriate bark, the whole family laughed out loud.

"By the way, Bai An and I have finished harvesting the wheat today. Should we go thresh the wheat now?" Lu Jinan looked at the sky outside and asked.

Lu Demin hesitated for a while and said, "There isn't much wheat, so it may not take long, so Jin An, come with me later."

"good."

Seeing that they had just returned and were about to leave again, Wanqing quickly said, "There's watermelon left in the kitchen, remember to eat it."

Lu Demin nodded.

Bai An put the puppy down from his arms and let it run around in the yard by itself.

The yard is no longer what Bai An saw when he first arrived. Now, ivy has covered the entire wall, full of vitality. There is also a big tree planted in the yard. Under the tree is a stone table made of a large stone, and next to it are four wooden chairs for lying or sitting. Not only that, the entire yard is also blooming with various tender flowers.

It feels like a paradise. Bai An has spent year after year here, and now he has a puppy, which makes this place even more perfect.

"Mom, do you like it here?"

Bai An sat on a chair, looking at the scenery in the yard, and asked curiously, "Do you miss the good life in the city before?"

Wanqing chuckled, "It's not a question of like or dislike. I already take charge of this place, so of course I like it."

"Whether you miss it or not is another matter. I think each has its own merits."

"But, Bai An, I want you to go out, out of the village. The world outside is completely different from here."

Bai An certainly knew that life in the future would be completely different from here.

"Bang, bang, bang." The gate of the yard was knocked violently, and the dog nearby was frightened and barked and hid in the dark.

Wanqing frowned and opened the gate. "What are you doing?"

Before Wanqing could finish her words, Bai An saw someone grabbing her arm and dragging her out.

"mom!"

A large group of people were standing in front of her door, everyone holding something in their hands. Wanqing was standing in the middle with two people holding her arms. When she heard Bai An's voice, everyone else raised their heads and looked at her eagerly.

"Your mother made a mistake and has to come with us."

Bai An wanted to go over and take the other people's dirty hands away from Wanqing, but as soon as she moved, someone came to stop her.

"What did my mother do wrong? Why are you arresting her?"

Wanqing looked at Bai An and said in panic, "Bai An, don't come over yet. Wait until Dad comes back."

Bai An's eyes turned red and he struggled hard. Seeing Wanqing being grabbed by brute force, he felt very uncomfortable, "Why are you grabbing my mother?"

Tears fell from my eyes one by one, and my heart was filled with powerlessness.

"Mother!"
