Li Sihui was fat and heavy, and when she ran she made a thudding sound. When the four people outside heard it, they scattered like birds and beasts and ran away.
When Li Sihui ran out of the yard, all she saw were people's backs. She knew her father and Liu Jingyun, and she was also familiar with the figure of that cheap mother-in-law. And there was also Sun Erya, whom she had just met today, so naturally she recognized her clothes.
What on earth are these four people trying to do when they get together? Li Sihui looked in four directions. Was this a tactic to divert attention from her?
I remember that this was a common tactic they used during the apocalypse. Several people would team up to find food, and when they encountered zombies, usually one person would lead the zombies away while the others would grab the food and then share it together.
Of course, people are greedy in many cases, and the person who finally leads the zombies away often fails to get any food and may even lose his life.
In the end, you still have to take care of yourself, so the success rate is very low.
These four people behaved suspiciously, so Li Sihui naturally thought of herself.
She touched her hair and found that her pigtails were loosened by Li Laogen, and a lot of hair fell out, which showed how hard Li Laogen hit her.
"Jianguo, what do you know?"
Li Sihui walked to her brother. He seemed to be hesitant to speak just now. Perhaps he knew their conspiracy.
"Sister, I went to look for Banzi before, and I heard Sun Erya calling stepmother and asking her for your hair."
Li Jianguo was still close to his sister. At least she was the one who protected him. He told his sister what he heard, but he didn't know what he wanted the hair for.
"Well, I'll go to Aunt Liu's house next door to borrow some fire, and you keep an eye on the rabbit meat."
Li Sihui couldn't figure it out, so she simply went to ask the old people in the village.
Aunt Liu is a kind person. She used to have a good relationship with the original owner's mother. After her mother died, she has always been very concerned about them. If we ask her, she should be able to tell us.
Li Sihui walked out of the yard with a long piece of wood. Fearing that her brother might not be able to protect the rabbits, she closed the gate, looked around, and made sure that Li Laogen and Liu Jingyun were not around before walking into the next yard.
"Auntie Liu, can I borrow a light?"
Li Sihui walked into Aunt Liu's room carrying a piece of wood and saw her busy cooking at the stove. She asked with a smile on her face and in a soft voice.
"Oh, that scared me."
Aunt Liu didn't expect someone to come in suddenly. Li Sihui was still holding the wood in her hand. She jumped with fright and looked at her with her hands covering her chest.
"sorry."
Seeing that Aunt Liu was scared, Li Sihui quickly put down the wood in her hand and apologized to her.
"It's okay. Auntie was just thinking about your family's affairs. I was too focused. Can I borrow a light? Give it to me!"
Aunt Liu smiled and shook her head, then reached out to take the tripod from Li Sihui's hand and put it directly into the stove. The fire was now burning brightly, and after a while the tripod made a popping sound and soon lit up.
"Auntie, there is something I can't figure out. Can you help me figure it out?"
Li Sihui glanced at Aunt Liu and saw that she had a kind face and there was sympathy in her eyes, so she smiled and spoke, explaining her purpose.
Aunt Liu reached out and took Li Sihui's hand, sighed, and nodded: "Child, just tell me what you want to say. Was your father snatching away the food at home? I still have some at home, take some back and eat!"
After she finished speaking, she turned around and went to the grain cabinet, intending to scoop some cornmeal for Li Sihui. She knew that Li Laogen and Liu Jingyun had robbed things during the day, but she could not do anything about it. She could only sympathize with the brother and sister in her heart.
"Auntie, you misunderstood. We have food at home, but something is strange today... I just want to ask, do you know why?"
