Dressed to be a grandmother

Chapter 4 Too Poor

"Okay." Bai Xi interrupted them, and said solemnly: "I'm coming, don't scold them, I'm just here to have a look and see how this year's harvest is going."

Her words made everyone stunned for a moment, and soon laughed.

Where did auntie hear this, she learned it, what else can she see.

But as if they were afraid that Bai Xi's laughter would make Bai Xi angry, the others quickly said, "Auntie, don't worry, the rice looks pretty good now. If there is no shortage of rain this year, the harvest will be good."

"Yes, auntie, don't worry."

In fact, Bai Xi has nothing to do. She just goes out and wanders around. It counts where she goes. Everyone doesn't let her stay at the field for a long time. She also thinks it's nothing to see, so she nodded her head pretending to be old and said. One word and left.

"Then you are busy and hard working."

After reacting to what Bai Xi said, the people working in the fields couldn't help but laugh.

"Where did your aunt learn the words, and how did they speak?"

"That's right, my aunt hasn't seen her for two days, but she's becoming more and more literate in her speech."

"Shh, stop laughing, be careful auntie is angry." Although the person who said this stopped everyone, he himself laughed happily.

Even though Bai Xi is only five years old, she has tried her best to look like an adult two years ago, so everyone is not surprised that she is like this.

Bai Xi listened to the laughter behind, although she knew that they were not malicious, she was still angry.

This little brat's body is simply too much.

However, she was a dignified nine-tailed fairy fox, and she couldn't compare herself to mortals. The main reason was that these people were full of kindness towards her, and Bai Xi was depressed.

"Auntie, where do you want to go?"

"go back!"

"Oh!" Chen Rui listened, not surprised, but she didn't leave, and followed obediently.

She had to send her aunt home before she could go.

On the way back, passing by the ancestral hall, Bai Xi asked curiously when he saw that the door of the ancestral hall was not locked.

"Why isn't the ancestral hall locked today?"

Bai Xi remembered that the ancestral hall was usually locked for fear of children in the village running in.

There are three surnames in Niuluo Village. They lived here hundreds of years ago and shared the same ancestral hall. It is said that the three surnames were one family hundreds of years ago, but they were separated later.

Chen Rui followed Bai Xi's words, looked at the ancestral hall, and answered obediently.

"There are Xiao Shunzi and the others in there."

Li Zhu, who had followed him all the way, said, "Auntie, they made you fall into the water that day and were punished to kneel inside."

"Oh." Bai Xi responded casually, took two steps and asked, "How long has it been?"

"Ah? Auntie, what did you say?"

Bai Xi took a deep breath and said in her heart, calm, she couldn't care about a ten-year-old kid.

She seemed to have forgotten that she was only five years old now.

"I asked, how long have they been kneeling?"

Chen Rui also found that she was a little stupid. She didn't understand what my aunt meant. She smiled embarrassedly and replied, "It's been two days."

Kneeling for two days?
The oldest of the children is only ten years old, right?
What's more, Hua Jing had to catch the shrimp in the water that day, and then accidentally fell into the stream. When the other children caught fish and snails found it, she had already fluttered to the deep water in the center, struggling. There was no strength left, so scared that Xiao Shunzi and the others hurriedly called for someone to come.

Speaking of this, Bai Xi couldn't help but despise the flower essence in her heart. Anyway, it's a elf, isn't it, so useless.

If Hua Jing knew Bai Xi's thoughts, she would definitely not be able to hold back her grievances. She came from practice, and after being reincarnated in this body, that little ability was trapped. Even if she knew something, her body was still a What can I do, kid?
"almost."

Bai Xi's words fell behind, and his stomach growled loudly.

Originally, Chen Rui didn't know what Bai Xi meant, but when she heard her stomach growl, she immediately understood that her aunt was hungry.

However, it's not even time for dinner.

But they are also hungry. This season's rice is still in the fields, and it will take more than two months to harvest. Even the adults who go to work are drinking porridge. Everyone is saving food, and they are afraid that they will not be able to support it. When it's time to harvest.

"Auntie, I'll give you the toffee." Chen Rui took out the toffee again, but she was reluctant to eat it just now.

Others looked at the toffee in Chen Rui's hand and swallowed greedily, but no one dared to ask for it. They all knew that aunt's things should not be asked for.

When did Bai Xi experience such an embarrassing scene, her delicate and beautiful face instantly turned red, and she shouted angrily, "I said not to eat, I'm an elder, how could I eat your child's things."

She wants to eat fish and meat. She doesn't want to eat any more vegetables fried in oil. She is a nine-tailed fairy fox, not a rabbit spirit.

After Bai Xi shouted, seeing that Chen Rui and his party stopped talking, she said: "Li Zhu, Xiao Shunzi and the others are almost kneeling, you go and tell the village chief, just say I said it, let Xiao Shunzi and the others Get up."

"However, I haven't kneeled for three days yet." Li Zhu hesitated.

Although Xiao Shunzi and the others were kneeling in the ancestral hall, they were not hungry. They just couldn't climb trees to look for bird nests or go into the water to catch shrimps.

Children in the village, climbing trees and rivers, rolling mud nests, and digging into caves, have very solid skin. They eat a meal of fried meat with bamboo shoots at every turn. Those who are beaten are used to it. It is no exaggeration to say that the skin is rough and the meat is thick.

Bai Xi put her hands on her hips and said angrily, "I'm an aunt, what I say is what I say, you go!"

"Oh, oh, well, I'll go right now."

Li Zhu ran off to the village chief's house, but Bai Xi's stomach groaned again.

Chen Rui hurriedly peeled off the toffee carefully, and when Bai Xi opened her mouth to speak, she quickly stuffed the toffee into Bai Xi's mouth and coaxed, "Auntie, eat it, it's very sweet."

Suddenly stuffed with toffee, Bai Xi's words were interrupted, and his cheeks suddenly bulged: "..."

"Auntie, isn't it sweet?" Chen Rui asked with a smile, with bright eyes.

Bai Xi nodded, it was really sweet, at least, her stomach didn't growl anymore.

When Chen Rui heard it, she grinned even more, as if she ate toffee.

Although the other little brats were also very greedy, they kept swallowing their saliva, but no one said anything.

Some older children wiped the corners of their mouths and looked away, pretending they didn't want to eat.

"Gollum..."

"Gollum..."

One after another, Bai Xi raised his trousers and tightened the belt of the coarse cloth. The faces of the people he had become accustomed to were filled with indescribable depression.

This place is too poor, and these people are living too miserably.

Bai Xi seriously doubted that the flower essence ran away because she couldn't bear the pain herself.
