The Villain In the Novel Reborn As His Own Daughter

Chapter 40 The Mystery of Persimmon (2)

Seeing that Shu Yue was silent, Bai Lie raised his brows slightly as he straightened his features, "There are also dried sweet potatoes and peach cakes here, and there are still some leftovers from the rice cakes we brought back yesterday." He brought the things to Shu Yue's hand one by one.

Shuyue said oh, but she didn't move these two things. The peach cakes occupied one space, a bag of dried sweet potatoes was placed directly on the largest space, and the rice cakes were still outside. They had to eat this as soon as possible.

Bai Lie saw that she was looking into the kang cabinet, looking at the clothes, so he simply took them out one by one. Unexpectedly, he only got the second single piece of clothing, and a persimmon rolled out of it.

They are round and yellow-orange in color, and they look delicious.

Shu Yue felt her saliva secreting continuously and was so frightened that she immediately covered her mouth.

 It’s just a persimmon, why is she so greedy...

Bailie paused. This thing was given to him by the neighbor next door.

On the way back to pick up Shuyue, he helped Chunhua drive away a few gangsters. This thing was brought as a thank-you gift from their family later, and Shuyue was also present at that time.

Obviously it was given to her to eat at that time, but she disliked the pain in her gums due to the hard skin, so she refused to eat it, so she just stuffed it into the cupboard.

But at this moment...seeing her little hands covered with flesh and bones tightly covering her mouth, with longing in her eyes, I felt a little sad in my heart.

 Why is Shuyue greedy now?

When a person is extremely hungry, if he suddenly eats something that is considered normal, he will feel that it is probably the most delicious thing he has ever eaten in his life.

There were originally two persimmons left, but there was only one here. The other one must have been eaten when Shuyue was very hungry.

 “Want to eat?” He just handed the persimmon over.

Shuyue moved her eyes, and then shook her head firmly. A gentleman never takes away from others. Her father hid this persimmon so well, how could she take it so casually?

Furthermore, she always felt that the persimmon in front of her was no ordinary persimmon, so Shuyue became even more vigilant.

Bai Lie: “…”

Bai Lie was thinking about how pitiful Shuyue was, and felt very sad, but now he saw her staring at the persimmon as if she was guarding against thieves, as if something terrible would happen if she ate it. Like, there was silence for a moment.

Fine!

 If you don’t want to eat, don’t eat!

 “Then this persimmon…”

"I don't want it." Shu Yue interrupted quickly, as if she had seen a hot potato and wanted to throw it away immediately.

Bai Lie: “…”

Bai Lie gave Shu Yue a strange look, and suddenly thought of the ambiguous words Chun Hua had said when he stopped them on the road.

“Do you remember this persimmon?”

Obviously, my daughter wants to eat it so much, but she refuses to eat it. Maybe it’s because the spring flowers have made her resist!

 Shu Yue: “…”

 Do I know this persimmon?

I don’t remember this persimmon, but I think it is inedible. Now that I see my father’s reaction, I feel that I shouldn’t eat it.

 Shu Yue had a firm attitude and a look of resistance.

Bai Lie didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he put the persimmon aside and will talk about it later.

He then handed the collected money from Shuyue's cabinet to Shuyue's hand to divert his attention, "You are in charge of our money."

as expected-

Hearing this, Shuyue's eyes lit up, "Am I in charge?"

You can do it with such a smart baby!

"Yeah!" Bai Lie laughed, "It was originally a total of seventy-nine yuan and thirty cents, and I spent six yuan to buy dried meat. Yesterday, I took it myself while you were sleeping, and there was still seventy-three yuan and thirty cents left."

Bai Lie showed her one by one and asked her to recognize them.

Shu Yue generously took out a ten-dollar bill, and handed five pieces of money to Bai Lie. She raised her chin and said, "Here you are, pocket money."

It’s so pitiful for a man to not have any pocket money in his pocket!
