Tianfu Tianji was startled, dropped the basket and ran away. Lin Laosan was so angry that he scolded him from behind: "I'll tell you when I get back and see how she deals with you tonight!"
Looking at his daughter who was lying in Aman's arms, unable to even stand up, Lin Laosan was so distressed that he poured the rotten leaves in the frame into the pit. He found that the basket was also dirty, so he could only hold his daughter for a while. examine.
However, he discovered that there were traces of insect bites on the daughter's exposed wrists and ankles.
Xiangyun's skin is fair, and a small red rash is particularly noticeable. In addition, she feels itchy and keeps scratching it, so the redness on her wrist becomes a patch. At first glance, it looks quite scary.
Even though the poor girl was feeling uncomfortable, she just grunted aggrievedly, neither crying nor fussing, which made him, a father, feel uncomfortable.
Lin Laosan carefully blew the itchy spot on his daughter, "If you scratch it, it will leave a scar. Let's go home to grandma and ask grandma to apply ointment to us."
Seeing that Ah Man was in the same situation, he quickly picked up the two of them and went down the mountain.
Mrs. Lin had just finished giving an injection to a villager at the hospital. When she saw her precious granddaughter coming back, she laughed so hard that her eyes were gone. When she saw that she was dirty and her face and clothes were covered with black mud, her face immediately dropped. .
"What's going on? Didn't you look clean when you left? What happened? Did you fall?"
Mrs. Lin hurriedly picked up her granddaughter. She was very angry when she saw that she kept moaning and scratching her hands. There were dense red rashes on the back of her hands, and there were obvious traces of insect bites on them.
He hurriedly found some ointment and applied it on his granddaughter, then he stared at his son and started scolding him.
"Didn't I tell you to take good care of A Bao? There are so many people, why do you make my good grandson like this? Is the land more important or your daughter?"
She lowered her head to check again and made sure that except for the redness and swelling, everything else about Bao was fine, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Grandma Lin, it's not Uncle Lin's fault. It was Tianfu who took away the basket, and Sister Abao was bitten by the bug."
Aman found an opportunity and started to complain.
I heard that the naughty grandsons took away my sister's basket and made her sit on the dirt floor for a long time, getting very angry.
"Bring those bastards in for me!"
After speaking, Mrs. Lin stretched out her hand to lead Ah Man to her side, and gently applied plaster on Ah Man's skin: "Good boy, don't go to the mountain. It's the same as playing with sister Ah Bao at home."
Ah Man nodded obediently, it was indeed not fun, the wind was strong and there were bugs, so she didn’t want to go there anymore.
Tianci and his brothers didn't know they had made a mistake. A group of children chased each other home, laughing and joking, and they were extremely happy.
As soon as I stepped into the yard, I suddenly felt that something was wrong in the atmosphere. Mrs. Lin was gouging them out with a sharp eye knife, and the smile on her face suddenly disappeared.
That night, all four boys were beaten with five hands and one heart each, until they howled and screamed.
Even Lin Silang, who was always the favorite of Mrs. Lin, was not spared. The reason was very simple. He had always taken care of his younger brothers. If his younger brothers made mistakes, he would also be beaten and punished, and the punishment would be heavier.
Lin Silang saw that his normally fair and fair niece had turned into a dirty clay doll with red and swollen body. He blamed himself endlessly and did not refute a word.
The bamboo board hit Lin Silang's palm, making a loud "snap" sound, and his palm quickly turned red. Seeing that grandma didn't mean to stop, Xiangyun couldn't stand it anymore.
Fourth uncle's hands are used for turning and writing, so what if they get damaged?
She grunted and climbed up to Mrs. Lin's neck, shouting "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh", and stretched out a hand to stop her grandma's hand that was about to hit her again.
The family soon understood that Abao was begging for mercy from his fourth uncle.
Lin Silang lowered his head guiltily: "Abao, it's your fourth uncle's fault. Your fourth uncle didn't take good care of you. You should be punished."
Xiangyun shook his head, as if he understood, and stretched out his arms to get into Lin Silang's arms.
Lin Silang was afraid that she would fall and quickly caught her. The burning feeling in his palms continued, so he could only use the strength of his arms to wrap his arms around his little niece.
Seeing my niece put her hand on his palm to comfort him, it was less than a quarter of the size. At this moment, her little hand was red, and I felt more and more guilty.
The four crying boys gathered around her and apologized to their sister one after another, crying louder as they talked.
Xiangyun comforted each one, wiping the tears of one and blowing on the palms of the other. He was very busy.
Lin Laosan and Zheng were very angry at first, but seeing the scene in front of them, no matter how much anger they had, they disappeared.
Only Old Mrs. Lin warned her grandchildren over and over again: "Bao is young, please remember that no matter where and whenever you go, you must put her safety first. If I find you just having fun again, Ignoring my sister is not as simple as just a few rulers today!"
The boys lowered their heads, with red eyes, and spoke in unison.
"I know, milk, we were wrong."
Xiangyun was carried by Zheng into the barrel and took a bath with Aman.
The two female dolls were soaked in water vapor, and their skin became pink and tender, like two pink dumplings.
After taking a bath, I carried her to the bed. Fortunately, when Lin Laosan was making the wooden bed, he made it bigger considering that his daughter would grow up quickly and would be restless when sleeping.
At this moment, it was just right for Aman and Xiangyun to lie on the small bed.
Zheng reapplied ointment to the two of them and told them not to scratch their itches at night.
Ah Man nodded in agreement: "Auntie, I will keep an eye on Ah Bao. Don't worry, I will hold her arm as soon as she grabs me."
Mrs. Zhang suddenly knocked on the door and called Mrs. Zheng away.
After she went out, she discovered that the men were also in the yard.
Boss Lin was the first to speak: "Today on the mountain, Tianfu told me that Aman didn't like to eat egg custard at home, but he liked to eat something made from swallows vomiting blood. I didn't take it seriously at first. The more I thought about it after I came back, the more and more something was wrong. Yanzi Isn't it just blood swallows that vomit blood? If Po can often eat blood swallows, he can't be a child from an ordinary farmer's family!"
Zheng also recalled some fragments of the conversation at this time: "If Ah Man is really a child of a wealthy family, then she said before that there is a stream at home and there are fish in the stream. Could it be the carp in the pond in the garden at home?" The lion in front of the door is a lion made of stone?”
The more she thought about it, the more likely it seemed that they were going in the wrong direction from the beginning.
