Chapter 59 Grabbing the candy corner
  "Mom, Xiaoxiao is looking energetic. Maybe you have eaten enough at home. You can keep this piece of grain cake for yourself." Zhao Tiezhu drank and said.

He knew that his mother hurriedly came to deliver food to the father and son after cooking. He had not eaten yet, and he had given away his own food for the two pieces of grain cakes he had just given.

"Okay, I understand, food can't stop your mouth." Qiu Lianniang glanced at her son, knowing that her son felt sorry for her, she smiled and cursed, then took a bite of the multigrain pancake in her hand.

Just after chewing two mouthfuls, her eyes suddenly widened.

She naturally knows what the multigrain cake she made herself tastes like.

This pancake is baked to a crispy texture and is full of fragrant aroma when you bite into it. You definitely didn’t make it yourself.

Qiu Lianniang looked at the multigrain cake in her hand, which was even bigger than when she gave it away, and she gradually understood what was going on.

She didn't say anything, but broke the cake into three parts, one for her son and one for Zhao Youcai.

"Mom, just eat it yourself. This is enough for me..." Zhao Tiezhu was about to refuse, but the pancake was stuffed into his mouth without any refusal.

He subconsciously took a bite, and then his eyes widened suddenly.

He can still tell the difference between multigrain cakes made of buckwheat flour and sesame cakes made of fine white flour. After all, this is white flour, and it is a good thing to only eat during the Chinese New Year!
  "Stop talking and eat your food." Qiulian Niang warned.

Zhao Tiezhu nodded hurriedly, couldn't help but chew a few more mouthfuls, and then looked at his father. Zhao Youcai ate the cake silently without saying a word. He just divided half of the paste in his bowl and poured it to Qiu Lianniang.

"We have to share every piece of cake, and the whole family is like reincarnations of starving ghosts!" Aunt Wang, who was not far away, looked on with ridicule and disdain on her face.

After saying that, she couldn't help but glare at her man and said bitterly: "Every man knows how to love his wife, but you are the silent one. I have been married to you for so many years and you haven't shown anything at all!"

Wang Dachui ate his big pot cake silently without making a sound.

There are some black spots on the cake, which is due to uneven heating of the cake when frying.

He thought silently in his heart, his mother-in-law is gentle and considerate, and her cooking is delicious. Who would be like him marrying a talkative tigress...

Aunt Wang got angry when she saw Wang Dachui's bored look, so she simply got up and walked somewhere else.

As soon as he walked away, he saw several children surrounding Jiang Xiaoxiao not far away.

Today, some women came to the mountain to deliver meals. Some women brought their children with them. After a long trip to the mountain, they naturally had to pick some wild vegetables. The children at home can't do heavy work, but they can still pick some wild vegetables.

But he is a child after all, and he is very playful. He was attracted by other things after picking it for a while and slipped away to play.

At this moment, several half-year-old children gathered around Jiang Xiaoxiao, their faces full of curiosity.

Most of the children in the village are free-range and often play together. They are covered in mud here and ashes there. They are usually dusty and don't like to be clean. Some even have snot and eye excrement on their faces, wearing straw sandals. The big toes are exposed.

Today I met Jiang Xiaoxiao, who was cleanly dressed, delicate and fair-looking, on the mountain. She stood out among all the little kids and immediately attracted a lot of attention.

"Sister Xiaoxiao, where is your home? Can Brother Ergou and I come to play with you from now on?"

"Sister Xiaoxiao, why don't you play with me too? I'll lend you my slingshot!"

"Sister Xiaoxiao, you and I can play together. I can help you pick wild vegetables!"

"Sister Xiaoxiao..."    …

Jiang Xiaoxiao looked at the bunch of little kids around her, listening to "Sister Xiaoxiao" repeated again and again, and looked helplessly at the sky.

Although children are young, their basic aesthetics have already been formed, and they will subconsciously play with good-looking children.

Just like children in kindergarten get together to play house, those good-looking children are often vying to be the groom or bride...

But her mental age is already over 20, so naturally she can't play with these children.

Jiang Xiaoxiao thought, silently putting the freshly picked wild vegetables into the basket, and was about to sneak back to her mother to avoid it, but the next second, several pairs of dirty little hands also handed over a few wild vegetables.

"Sister Xiaoxiao, my mother said these wild vegetables are delicious!"

Jiang Xiaoxiao glanced at them a few times. Although these children were usually careless, they often helped their families with work. They could still recognize the wild vegetables. So he showed his small white teeth and smiled gratefully at the children opposite: "Thank you."

A few little kids with big snot bubbles giggled and scratched their heads, then dispersed in a swarm, and after a while they picked a few more wild vegetables.

You can’t take other people’s things for nothing...

Jiang Xiaoxiao thought for a while, took out a piece of candy from the pocket on her waist, broke it open, and divided a small piece between each person.

When the child saw Tang Jiao'er, his eyes instantly lit up. He didn't care about picking wild vegetables anymore. He hurriedly stuffed Tang Jiao'er into his mouth and said, "It's delicious, sister Xiaoxiao, your mother bought this for you." Is that so? Your mother is doing well..."

"Xiaoxiao, do you still have it? Give me another piece." Zhao Ergou, who was still unsatisfied after eating a piece, licked his lips and stared at the small cloth pocket around Jiang Xiaoxiao's waist.

"No more." Jiang Xiaoxiao spread his hands. These are candy candies that he bought in town before. He never ate them. He accidentally put a few candies in before going out today.

"I don't believe it, you must still have it!" Zhao Ergou stretched out his hand to grab the small cloth pocket on Jiang Xiaoxiao's waist.

Jiang Xiaoxiao quickly stepped back and looked at him with a frown, "If I say no, it's gone. Do you still want to come and snatch my things?"

Zhao Ergou is eleven years old this year and is the oldest of the group of children. He usually takes advantage of his strength and grabs whatever he wants. No one dares to disobey him.

Jiang Xiaoxiao tightly closed her little cloth pocket and refused to give him anything, which obviously made him very angry, and said angrily: "Will you give it to me! If you don't give it to me, I'll beat you!"

"Brother Ergou, you didn't even help sister Xiaoxiao pick wild vegetables, why should I give it to you!" The child next to him stood up unconvinced and stood up to speak for Jiang Xiaoxiao.

Like his father, Zhao Lailai, Zhao Ergou is used to cheating and bullying the weak. He is not even willing to help pick his own wild vegetables, let alone pick wild vegetables for Jiang Xiaoxiao. He came over just now after seeing Jiang Xiaoxiao sharing sugar.

Jiang Xiaoxiao treated everyone equally and gave them candies, but she didn't expect that Zhao Ergou would target them.

"You are not allowed to snatch sister Xiaoxiao's things!" Wang Goudan is eight years old this year. He is usually bullied by Zhao Ergou, but now he stood bravely in front of Jiang Xiaoxiao.

Before Jiang Xiaoxiao said anything, a sharp voice suddenly sounded not far away: "Goudan, get back!"

Aunt Wang looked at Wang Goudan who was standing in front of Jiang Xiaoxiao, and gritted her teeth in anger, "You little brat, what kind of prestige can a young scholar show off!" If someone wants to rob something, let them rob it. What does it have to do with him?

Thinking about it, Aunt Wang's eyes flashed across Jiang Xiaoxiao's body. She was so well-dressed and deserved to be robbed!
  "Mom!" Wang Goudan turned around and immediately complained: "Brother Ergou wants to steal sister Xiaoxiao's candy corner, come here and help her!"
