Hearing Xiao Chenxing’s reprimand, he felt a little guilty. The hand that was pulling the little girl’s hair imdiately loosened, "What are you shouting about? I’ll tell my mom, you’re already so grown-up, yet you still bully !"
Xiao Chenxing akimbo, "Why are you pulling her braid?"
"I didn’t!" Tian Jinbao stubbornly denied, "Who said I was pulling her braid? I was just playing with her."
"Well, you have to see if she wants to play with you."
The little girl’s braid was released, and she almost instantly jumped away, "I don’t want to play with you; you have no manners at all!"
The hair her mom had combed was all ssed up now.
She huffed, turned her head, and didn’t forget to thank Xiao Chenxing, "Thank you, Sister Xingxing, I’m going to another place with Xiao Wei."
"Go on," Xiao Chenxing patted Miao Miao’s head, "Stay safe."
After scaring Tian Jinbao, the mischievous little chubby kid, Xiao Chenxing finally let him be.
Watching the children gather by the creek, she couldn’t help but remind them again, "Don’t run around too wildly, okay? The riverside is dangerous."
"We know!"
The kids scattered with a shout, running off to play in another area.
In a blink of an eye, Tian Jinbao was back beside Miao Miao and Xiao Wei, playing and laughing together.
Of course, little Miao Miao still found Tian Jinbao quite annoying.
Xiao Chenxing sighed, "That little tyrant from the Tian Family, really..."
Seeing that Xiao Chenxing wasn’t paying attention to the kids anymore, Wen Ran turned her head, calmly continuing to ask Bao Wenxuan, "Hmm? What happened next?"
No choice, she just loves a good gossip.
"What?"
Bao Wenxuan looked a bit dazed; Xiao Chenxing’s interruption made her forget what she was talking about.
Xiao Chenxing still rembered, leaning over, "Did sothing happen again at the Knowledge Youth Courtyard?"
The word "again" used here was just right.
Bao Wenxuan looked at Xiao Chenxing, slapped her forehead, and recalled.
She said seriously, "Co to think of it, this matter is sowhat related to your family."
Xiao Chenxing: "?"
Her watery eyes widened in surprise, "Huh? How did our family get involved? What’s it got to do with us?"
Wen Ran helplessly gave a simple explanation about the prior matter when the knowledge youth visited, with Bao Wenxuan assisting on the side. Xiao Chenxing understood, imdiately shocked.
"This, even in daydreams, I wouldn’t dare imagine this."
Xiao Chenxing complained, "Those two big fat pigs are being cared for with the neighbors, planning to use them for visiting relatives by the end of the year.
Thinking about them, I really am..."
"Who wouldn’t think so~" Bao Wenxuan rolled her eyes but then thought of their current predicant, covered her mouth, and chuckled nonstop, "Guess what happened later when they didn’t make any more moves."
Wen Ran, the mastermind behind this, remained quite calm, with just the right amount of curiosity, tilting her head, "Why?"
"The pigs are gone."
Wen Ran: "?"
Her eyelids jumped; she had fed the pigs the Poisonous Herb back then to give them diarrhea, not expecting such fatal toxicity.
This is really ssed up!
Her hands weren’t clean anymore, carrying the weight of a pig’s death on her conscience.
"How are they gone?"
"After they dealt with your matter, the rain started falling intermittently. They were all filled with frustration and thought since soone was feeding them, they’d just abandon them.
In the end, nobody fed them, and the pigs starved to death," Bao Wenxuan lanted, "In my life, I’ve never seen pigs so skinny, like bags of bones."
So, even if Wen Ran hadn’t sneaked in and thrown the two Poisonous Herbs, those pigs were destined to be gone.
Hiss~
Feeling uneasy, like her plans had fallen short, punching into cotton.
Wen Ran opened her mouth, wanting to say sothing, but gave up, only muttering internally—well well, this has nothing to do with , Piggy, if you seek justice, go after them!
The young girls were chatting away aimlessly, enjoying so schadenfreude for a while before throwing away this topic, moving on to discuss their anticipate plans for winter.
Xiao Chenxing sighed, "This year I want to make a new cotton coat, just not sure if it’ll be possible."
Cotton isn’t much of a problem, as this area is mostly mountains.
Randomly finding a hidden spot on the mountains to cultivate so fields, plant cotton, fruits, or sothing like that, basically, no one would say anything.
People tacitly kept secrets, farming and harvesting quietly.
Even if others discovered it later, so what? Who can prove whose it is? At worst, just a year’s harvest wasted.
Fabric is what’s scarce.
Sigh~
Xiao Chenxing lanted.
Wen Ran saw this, looking thoughtfully.
