Chapter 22: Blight
Li Yao saw that Li Qiaohui seemed reluctant to say more, so she didn't continue to ask.
At this time, Li Yao's clothes were also washed, so she said goodbye to Li Qiaohui and prepared to go back.
The corners of Li Qiaohui's lips moved, and she didn't say anything about wanting to invite Li Yao to her home as a guest.
Even if Li Yao is not afraid of her, but now the people in the village regard her as a beast, no matter who gets close to her, it is inevitable that she will be implicated and gossip.
"By the way, your name is Niu Erni, right?" Li Qiaohui asked.
Although Li Qiaohui does not communicate with the people in the village, she is still deeply impressed by Niu Erni.
After she came to Niujia Village more than three years ago, she often saw the little Niu Erni coming to the river to wash clothes, and there had never been such a young child in the village to wash clothes, which reminded Li Qiaohui of her childhood memories that were about to fade.
Speaking of which, Li Qiaohui had such a miserable time when she was a child, if she hadn't seen Niu Erni, she would have been forgotten by her.
"Hmm." Li Yao nodded.
"If you need any help, you can go to me." Li Qiaohui thought for a while, and added: "You can come secretly, don't let others see it." ”
Li Yao smiled at Li Qiaohui and nodded generously, "Okay." ”
Saying goodbye to Li Qiaohui, Li Yao returned home with a wooden basin.
The door of Niu Dani's room was still closed, and Niu Erbao didn't seem to wake up.
Li Yao has some black lines, these two people are really good at sleeping.
Don't you say that people in ancient times got up early? She saw that it should be eight or nine o'clock now, and these two goods still hadn't gotten up, so the rumors were really not credible.
Li Yao didn't care about them, she shook off her clothes and hung them on the rope.
After drying her clothes, Li Yao casually glanced under the tree, and was a little surprised to find that the white orchids, which were still blooming vigorously before, were withering like dead things at this moment.
If she hadn't remembered that she had buried the white orchid again, she would have thought that a dead grass had grown there.
Li Yao frowned, how did she feel that the white orchid was in full bloom, as if it was just to give herself a hint?
Or is it that the white orchid bloomed because of the energy in the jade pendant before, and now that the jade pendant has been taken away by her, the white orchid is like losing its nutrients?
Li Yao was a little puzzled, and then shook his head again, shaking this matter out of his mind.
It's good that the flower is withered.
If the lotus jade pendant was really buried by Niu Cuihua and Niu Erzhu, without the conspicuous white orchid, the two of them probably couldn't remember that something was buried underground for a while.
Li Yao didn't feel guilty at all about taking other people's things.
For such parents, she can't feel guilty at all.
Besides, this lotus jade pendant was buried in the ground and no one cared about it, these two people must not know what the function of the jade pendant is, and it is estimated that it represents some money for the two of them.
After drying her clothes, Li Yao glanced at Niu Dani's closed door, thought about it, carried a bamboo basket from the yard and went out again.
Niu Erbao's stinky boy is probably waking up soon, and she doesn't want to take him.
She planned to go up the mountain to have a look, mainly to find a place where no one was there to study her space, and carrying a bamboo basket was to go up the mountain to pick up some wild fruits and firewood or something.
Along the way, Li Yao met many villagers, and some enthusiastic villagers greeted her one after another.
Knowing that Li Yao was going up the mountain to collect firewood, they praised Li Yao for her ability, and some kind-hearted people also cared about her injuries.
Li Yao replied politely and obediently one by one, her thin little body carrying a big bamboo basket, and she gained the sympathy of middle-aged and elderly women along the way.
After walking for more than a quarter of an hour, Li Yao came to the foot of the mountain.
