Chapter 455

Seeing her little aunt's sad expression, Bai Ningxiang couldn't help but took her hand and patted it.

"There are only four members of my little aunt's family, and there is nothing to help me, isn't it difficult?"

"People suffer when they live, and my aunt is used to it."

Bai Huixia held her niece's hand behind her back, looking at the white and tender little hand, she was reluctant to use force,
"My aunt didn't expect to meet such a caring niece like Sister Xiang. My aunt is very lucky."

Listening to her little aunt's tone, Bai Ningxiang couldn't open her mouth to keep people. If my little aunt was used to that kind of ordinary life, wouldn't it be contrary to her father's original intention if she insisted on keeping people here?

The moment she hesitated, sister Qiao ran over with Le Sheng, "Mother, cousin, we can help with the work."

"You are still young, my cousin has someone to work on, so I don't need you to do it."

Seeing that the two were sweating profusely, Bai Ningxiang poured them a cup of fruit tea, "Drink a glass of water to moisten your throat, and you'll be sweating profusely from running."

"Cousin, can I read this book?"

Le Sheng handed a book hidden behind him to Bai Ningxiang, and opened his mouth cautiously.

After seeing the book in her son's hand, Bai Huixia's expression immediately dropped.

"Le Sheng, where did you get this book? Didn't Mother tell you that you can't rummage around at uncle's house."

"Mother, I was wrong. I saw that the door of my cousin's study room was ajar, so I went in and took a look. This book was on the table. I thought it was the same as what the teacher taught in the private school, so I brought it to my cousin."

Bai Ningxiang took the book, "Thousand Characters, these are a few books I bought a while ago, and I plan to enlighten Brother Xing."

When Bai Huixia heard this, she stretched out her hand and patted Le Sheng's arm, "Le Sheng, from now on, I'm not going to casually look through my cousin's things, especially books, they are the most precious items, you can't touch them, and you can't even touch them."

Listening to his mother's instruction, Le Sheng looked at the book in his cousin's hand, his bright eyes gradually dimmed.

"Le Sheng, tell cousin, why are you holding this book?" Bai Ningxiang held his hand with a gentle tone.

Le Sheng raised his head, his face was flushed, he hesitated for a moment, and then he spoke, "The master of the private school taught me that the little chubby in the village often took out his books. I have seen it."

"Le Sheng studied in a private school?"

Bai Ningxiang smiled, and touched the small knob on his head. He is ten years old, and his hair is still sparse and dull.

"No, I saw it from the window." As soon as Le Sheng said this, Bai Ningxiang noticed that her little aunt quickly lowered her head, and even Sister Qiao kept her mouth shut.

"Does Lesheng like reading?"

"I like it...but I have no money at home..."

Hearing her son's pitiful tone, Bai Huixia blushed, "Sister Qiao, take my brother to play there, be careful not to fall."

Seeing the two children walk away, Bai Huixia gave a smug smile,
"Don't listen to children's nonsense, how many families with a good life can't afford a student, let alone a family like ours who have eaten their last meal and never finished their meal. It's good to be alive."

Bai Ningxiang didn't comment on her aunt's remarks. Ordinary people's lives are hard, she already knew this, otherwise, Xu Maocheng, that scoundrel, wouldn't have tried to plot her dowry.

"Little aunt, what are your plans for Qiao'er and Lesheng?" It's fine for the adults to suffer a bit, but if they force the children to suffer together, honestly, she can't stop them.
