Yoshida Mii

Chapter 89 Pride
"Yo!" Dong Bao wiped the water splashed on his face by the little boy, and said with a smile, "Little boy, you know a lot!"

Mrs. Li came out of the kitchen and saw two girls "bullying" a little boy, she shook her head helplessly and said with a smile: "How old are you two? Don't bully him, he is younger than you, he is a younger brother, let it go!"

The little boy who was cleaned by Dongbao and Zhang Xiuyu changed into Dongbao's clothes, and sat in the yard basking in the sun with wet hair hanging down. He was a beautiful and lovely boy with a fair bun face and big black eyes. Boy, just bruises on the face and legs.

Dong Bao threw his clothes into the basin to soak, the clothes were covered with dried black mud, and he didn't know if he could wash them off.Looking at the young Zhengtai who looked upright, Dong Bao sighed slightly in his heart. He didn't know if the child's injuries were all caused by his father. If so, his father was too cruel. There is a domestic violence father, but Not a good thing.Thinking about it now, although Song Xiucai was not a very good father, at least he never beat her or Li Shi.

Li Hongqin came over at this meeting, looked at the little boy sitting in the sun drying his hair, and praised him, "What a handsome boy!"

The little boy's face was flushed, a little proud and a little shy, and he proudly puffed out his small chest.

"What's your name? How old are you?" Dong Bao asked him.

The little boy looked left and right, pretending to look around the yard, and asked Dong Bao, "What's your name first?"

Dong Bao moved a small stool to sit in front of the little boy, and said with a smile, "My surname is Song, and my name is Dong Bao. How about you?"

The little boy's bright black eyes stared at Dong Baogulu. Such an expression might be a mischievous look on others, but he is so cute, it would be weird on him.

While they were talking, Xiao Hei came over to join in the fun wagging his tail, wandering around Dong Bao's legs, making coquettish groans from time to time, and raised his head to beg for petting.Dong Bao stretched out his hands to scratch his head and chin, Xiao Hei lay on the ground with his eyes closed, unable to enjoy himself.Compared with when he first arrived at Dongbao's house, Xiaohei has grown up a lot, and his black fur is shiny. Dongbao has never been short of his food, and Xiaohei is also stronger than dogs of the same age.

Farmers feed their dogs, and there are very few people who prepare food for the dogs. They either let the dogs eat pig food and drink pot water like pigs, or let the dogs go out for food by themselves.Dong Bao is unwilling to treat Xiao Hei like this. In her opinion, Xiao Hei has taken on the responsibility of looking after the house. There is no cat in their house. With Xiao Hei around, the mice are gone. Xiao Hei is a member of their family. .

Looking at the cute and cute little black dog under Dongbao's hands, the little boy was filled with envy, and wanted to reach out to touch him, but just as he stretched out his hand to get close to Xiao Hei, Xiao Hei immediately glared, bared his teeth and growled fiercely. He was so frightened that he didn't dare to reach out to touch him anymore, and sat there well-behaved.

"My name is Xiaoxu, and I am six years old." The little boy scratched his head and said.

Dong Baohu blushed, "Is that your real name? If you dare to tell lies, I'll kick you out!" It takes a long time to say a name, which is weird!
The little boy was anxious, "My name is really Xiao Xu!"

"Okay then." Dong Bao nodded, this kid is smart and clever at first glance, I hope he didn't lie.

Xiao Xu could see that in this house with only women, the two adults, Li Shi and Li Hongqin, had no discernment, they believed whatever they said, Zhang Xiuyu was also honest, only this Dongbao was not easy to fool.As soon as he spoke, Dongbao's sister had an expression of "Go ahead and fool the ghost!", which really made him dejected.

Therefore, in order to find himself a long-term meal ticket for food, clothing and housing, Xiao Xu decided to focus on Dongbao.

No matter where Dong Bao goes, Xiao Xu follows behind, calling her sister sweetly.Dong Bao squatted on the ground to pick up beans, Xiao Xu immediately went to move the small bench and stuffed it under Dong Bao's buttocks. He was extremely attentive.

Dong Bao sat comfortably on the stool that Xiao Xu stuffed in, picked up beans and said to him: "Xiao Xu, you have also seen that our family is very poor and owes a lot of foreign debts, if you are in my house Living here is definitely not as comfortable as your home, think about it carefully!"

Xiao Xu shook his head, and mumbled: "If I don't go home, my father will kill me..." As he spoke, two tears fell from his bright black eyes.

Dong Bao's heart softened immediately, and he waved his hands and said, "Forget it, you can stay here if you don't want to go home." It's as if she was a bully who bullied the little daughter-in-law.

For lunch, Dong Bao cooks a dish, one homemade tofu and one fish head tofu soup.It was the first time for Xiao Xu to eat tofu, and after Mrs. Li picked up a chopstick dish for him, he no longer had to pick up any more.

"Look how hungry this kid is." Li Hongqin sighed from the side.

After lunch, Lin Shi came over with Quan Zi, and they were both taken aback when they saw Xiao Xu.Before Lin Shi could say anything, Dong Bao pulled Lin Shi aside and said, "Brother Da Shi, we picked this child up from the market."

Lin Shi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, a real child could be picked up, Dong Bao was really not an ordinary person.

"Where's his family?" Lin Shi asked in a low voice.

Dong Bao shook his head and said, "I don't know, let's go to the market tomorrow to find out who's child is missing."

Lin Shi thought more than Dong Bao, thought for a while, and said to Dong Bao: "If his family members are not kind, don't try to be brave, come to my house quickly and find me and my father."

The last time this little girl went to find Er Gou's scoundrel theory, she really scared him, so she had to tell her several times.

In order to widen Lin Shi's heart, Dong Bao nodded solemnly, with a sweet heart, God was kind to her, and gave her a childhood sweetheart big brother, caring and gentle, so kind!Lin Shi and she wanted to go together. If they really met someone looking for trouble, she would definitely go to the Lin family to rescue soldiers.

After lunch, it was always time for the children to study, and they still studied the book "Children's Learning Hongmeng" in Lin Shi's hand. After so many days, Dong Bao had basically read the characters in the book.Quanzi and Zhang Xiuyu's progress was not as fast as Dongbao's, and they also finished reading half of the book.

Dong Bao originally wanted to ask Xiao Xu to learn to read together, but after thinking about it, he saw that Xiao Xu's clothes did not look like poor people, so he didn't speak again.

A few people were seriously practicing calligraphy on the ground with branches. Xiao Xu pretended not to be interested at all, looking up at the sky, but glanced over from time to time, and finally couldn't hold back his curiosity, and walked over.Seeing the words written by several people on the ground, Xiao Xu rolled his eyes and read out one word after another with his hands behind his back and his chin raised.

Quanzi looked up at Xiaoxu in surprise. This kid is only a few years younger than him, yet he can recognize all these characters. "You are so amazing!" Quanzi admired him and praised him sincerely.

Xiao Xu blushed, and raised her chin even higher. She caught a glimpse of the book in Lin Shi's hand. The book was all old and the cover was damaged. Only the words "Xue Xue Hong Meng" could be seen.

"Why don't you teach something else?" Xiao Xu asked curiously.

Lin Shi shook his head gently, "I have only studied this book." He only studied in a private school for one year, and he stopped studying after being enlightened by his master.

Xiao Xu looked at Lin Shi with contempt immediately, and his small chest was tall and tall, "You are so old that you only studied the elementary school Hongmeng? When I was four years old, I finished memorizing the elementary school Hongmeng! "The implication is, you are so stupid!

Lin Shi lowered his head and smiled. If his family had the conditions to study, he would definitely be willing to continue studying. Back then, his master praised him for being smart, so it would be a pity to go home and work.However, he wasn't angry. He was a gentle and kind person, and Xiao Xu was just a child, so he didn't need to be as knowledgeable as him.

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Dong Bao got angry, jumped up from the ground and cursed.Just because Lin Shi isn't angry doesn't mean she doesn't care about it. Dong Bao can see that she doesn't want others to say that Lin Shi is bad.

Dong Bao's voice was sharp and serious, Xiao Xu took two steps back in fright, and looked at Dong Bao blankly, this sister was smiling most of the time, with curved eyebrows and a dimple on her cheek, She is very pretty and kind, but she never thought that she would be so intimidating when she got angry and stared at her eyes.

"I...I can also teach you how to read!" Xiao Xu said aggrievedly after a while, pointing to Lin Shi and said: "I can read many more characters than him!"

Lin Shixiao's eyes were bent into crescent moons, and she pulled Dong Bao to signal her not to lose her temper, which scared the children.He also couldn't explain why, but seeing Dong Bao annoy Xiao Xu because of him, he felt warm and happy.

With Lin Shi begging for mercy, Dong Bao couldn't get angry anymore, and said flatly: "Our farmer's family can't afford a master like you!" After that, he ignored Xiao Xu and continued to review with Lin Shi I knew the characters before, but I was planning to go to the bookstore in the town to buy two books in two days and come back.

Xiao Xu stood by the side with his fingers wrenched for a long time, but Dong Bao didn't see any response to him. He felt very boring, so he cheekily rubbed up in front of Dong Bao, and read aloud the words written by Dong Bao.Dong Bao lowered his head, couldn't hold back his smile, so he simply turned his head, pretending that there was no such noisy person beside him.

This child is smart because he is smart, but he has an unpleasant personality, tells a lot of lies and looks down on others. He must have been spoiled by his family.Dong Bao thinks about it, and thinks that children should be like Quan Zi, obedient and cute, how wonderful!

Xiaoxu can't hold back anymore, no matter how smart he is, he is only a six-year-old child. When he arrives in Tagouji, where he is unfamiliar, the only person he can rely on is his sister Dongbao, who feeds him bean curd, but she is angry with him and ignores him. What he did just now was actually just to attract Dong Bao's attention.

Scared in his heart, Xiao Xu simply started to cry, sobbing and choking, he was so wronged that he didn't dare to sit down because of the pain in his buttocks, so he squatted on the ground and cried, shrugging his little shoulders.

Now I can't pretend I can't see it anymore, Dong Bao threw the branch in his hand, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Why are you crying? None of us bullied you."
