This push seems to have widened the distance between the two.

Not only did Xiao Ruoqing show a look of loss on her face, but even Bai Mushuang was embarrassed.

She didn't want to do that, and she didn't know how to suddenly do something to him.

"Xianggong, I'm playing around with you, don't mind too much."

"It doesn't matter." His expression darkened a little, and he pushed his wheelchair around.

Seeing that his back looked very thin, Bai Mushuang suddenly became very sad in his heart.

Originally, he wanted to catch up with him and make things clear again, but at this time, a patient suddenly came to the door for consultation, and Bai Mushuang could not directly push the patient out of the door, so he could only snub him for the time being.

When she finished her work in Asakusa Hall and returned to the backyard, she didn't see Xiao Ruoqing.

Bai Mushuang chuckled in her heart, and when she saw that Nian Nian was there, she called him over to ask.

"Nian Nian, have you seen your father?" She gestured back and forth, looking a little anxious.

"I didn't see it." Nian Nian said while chopping wood.

"He's gone again?" Bai Mushuang suddenly felt a little lost in her heart.

I just came back, and I didn't say a few words, why did I leave?? Even if you really want to leave, you should tell her anyway, right? left inexplicably like this, and Bai Mushuang couldn't accept it.

Even if you really want to leave, you have to tell her before leaving, right?

Thinking that Xiao Ruoqing might have left with negative energy, Bai Mushuang felt very uncomfortable.

"Aunt Bai, what's wrong?"

Xiao Jingnian stopped what he was doing and looked at her with a puzzled expression.

Bai Mushuang didn't want to be seen by the little doll in front of her, so she hurriedly said: "It's nothing, I just asked where your father went, why did you chop firewood every year, isn't the firewood at home enough?" ”

"I just happened to be fine, Aunt Li next door said let me help chop some firewood, and she would give us some silver as a payment."

I didn't expect Xiao Jing to have a business mind at such a young age, and I don't know if I learned it from her.

Bai Mushuang looked at him, just about to boast. Suddenly, I found that Xiao Jingnian's palms and the tiger's mouth were actually worn out by the machete, especially in the tiger's mouth, the new injuries and the old injuries made people feel a little frightened.

"Nian Nian, what's wrong with your hand?" Bai Mushuang hurriedly pulled his hand.

Xiao Jingnian was a little embarrassed, and after saying nothing, he wanted to pull his hand away.

Seeing that he was about to withdraw his hand, of course Bai Mushuang refused, and she deliberately increased the force of her voice: "Is it chopping wood?" You don't have enough strength at a young age, and you still chop so much firewood, don't do it. ”

"But I promised Aunt Li, didn't you teach us to be honest? Since I promised her, I can't lie, right? ”

"You rest, I'll do it."

is still a child, and her hand has already been injured like this, although Xiao Jingnian is not born to Bai Mushuang, but she is distressed, this injury is touched, no matter which child is injured, she will definitely feel distressed.

"Aunt Bai, I'm fine."

"Don't carry it with me here." Bai Mushuang took out the gold sore medicine and gauze that she carried with her, and helped Xiao Jingnian treat the wound, "There is not much firewood left, you rest with me." ”

"You're a woman, how could I let you do it."

"When you're young, you still know that it hurts." Bai Mushuang was greatly pleased, "Let's rest, you haven't grown into a man yet, with your stepmother here, is it possible that you still have to work all over your body?" ”

She waved her hand again, and Xiao Jingnian handed the machete to Bai Mushuang, and she stood aside.

Taking the machete, Bai Mushuang helped Xiao Jingnian chop all the remaining firewood.

After the split, I happened to run into Li Yuxiang next door to come and get it.

I saw Li Yuxiang wearing a group of broken flowers, and her body twisted and twisted when she walked, as if she was a soft snake.

"Oops, the firewood was chopped so quickly." She didn't see Bai Mushuang when she came, and thought that Xiao Jingnian was the only one there. "You're a pretty good boy."

"Aunt Li, firewood for you." Xiao Jingnian tied up the firewood and handed it to the woman.

The woman took it with a smile, praised Xiao Jingnian a few more times, turned around and left.

Xiao Jingnian saw that she didn't mean to give money, so he panicked a little, and hurriedly stopped her: "Auntie, did you forget to give something." ”

The woman who was smiling like a flower just now heard the three words "give something", and her face collapsed directly: "What are you talking about, little thing?" Didn't you volunteer to help? Did your father and mother teach you how you can casually open your mouth and ask someone for something? ”

"It's not what I want, it's what you promised to give it to me, but I didn't ask you for anything." The first time he worked hard to make his family live a better life, he didn't expect to encounter this kind of incident, Xiao Jingnian was angry and ashamed, and his whole face turned red directly.

Li Yuxiang looked extremely fierce: "I don't want this firewood, how can there be such a slander, I saw that you were diligent in your work at a young age, so I asked you to help chop some firewood, why did you still lie to me." ”

"I'm not slandering."

"I heard you moved from a remote country, right? The ancestors must have been farming for generations, how could a peasant live in the town? Maybe some kind of despicable means were used, such as an honest person like tricking me. ”

"Sister Li, isn't that a bit too much for you to say?" Bai Mushuang suddenly appeared in front of Xiao Jingnian and directly protected him behind him.

At this time, Li Yuxiang found out that there were still others in the yard.

"Yo, who should I be, it turned out to be Dr. Bai." Li Yuxiang said angrily at Bai Mushuang, "Doctor Bai came just in time, why don't you take care of your children?" Deceive people to the neighbors, it's good to say that it's too young, how can it be good to wait until you're older, are you still deceiving people by him here? ”

"I believe my kid can't do something like this." Bai Mushuang took it for granted and said, "Today I want to get justice for my child." ”

"Jing Nian, you should explain the ins and outs of the matter now, and don't say that we are bullying a weak woman at that time." Bai Mushuang protected Xiao Jingnian and said softly.

Xiao Jingnian was not stupid, and soon described the whole thing clearly in front of Bai Mushuang.

"It's this aunt who said that when I finish chopping this firewood, she will give me a reward of thirty yuan, and I will start to help her chop firewood." Xiao Jingnian looked at Li Yuxiang angrily, "What I said was all the truth, and I didn't hide it at all." ”

"This ...... I never promised him anything, how can you just listen to a kid talking nonsense here? Li Yuxiang probably didn't expect that Xiao Jingnian would remember things so clearly, and her face immediately changed and became extremely ugly.

"Just thirty dollars, just let my children do rough work for you? After you finish it, you still pay off your debts, Li Yuxiang, you can really do it. Bai Mushuang held a machete in her hand and approached Li Yuxiang step by step.

Looking at the things she was holding in her hand, Li Yuxiang was so frightened that she immediately trembled and took a few steps back, and said tremblingly as she stepped back, "You...... What do you want to do? ”
