Chapter 8
After eating, it was not completely dark yet, Ah Li thought of something.

She ran to the kitchen to take a look and found that there was still a bowl of brown rice left.

So he ran up to Mrs. Pei in a "squeaky" manner.

"Mom, can you give me the leftover rice?"

"Is it because the carp is not full for the leftovers?"

Ah Li shook his head, "Sister Zhaodi has no food tonight, she will be hungry."

Pei Shi was a little surprised, she didn't know when Ah Li became so familiar with Li's Zhaodi girl.

After all, she and Liu Cuihua did not get along, and the children of the two families rarely played together.

So she called Dalang to her and asked what happened.

Lin Dalang told Pei Shi what happened during the day.

Mrs. Pei sighed, "This Mrs. Huang is as bad as her mother-in-law. My daughter doesn't feel sorry for her at all, and the girl Zhaodi is also pitiful. With such parents, Dalang, you go and let your third uncle accompany you." Let's go and have a look together!"

She thoughtfully kneaded the leftovers into rice balls, and put some leftover meat in them.

It's not easy for their family to eat a meal of meat. Generally, if they don't finish the first meal, even the leftovers are left for the next meal.

She cooked a lot tonight, otherwise there might not be leftovers.

Ah Li took a rice ball in one hand, and walked happily with Lin Sanrong to Li's yard.

"Why is Lili so nice to Zhaodi?" Lin Sanrong asked with a smile behind her.

"Because Sister Zhaodi is my first friend!"

"Then aren't we your friends?"

Ah Li stopped and turned around, looking at Lin Sanrong with a pair of bright eyes.

"No~ third brother, you are my favorite relatives!"

Lin Sanrong squatted down, and lightly squeezed Ah Li's soft cheeks.

"Where did you learn it, little girl, to speak so nicely?"

Ah Li smiled with crooked eyebrows, "I heard what mother said, hehe~"

As expected, she was still a cute little girl, and he was thinking that if he married a wife in the future, he would definitely have a daughter as cute as Ah Li.

Li's house is not very far from Lin's house, and Lin Sanrong soon arrived with Ah Li in his arms.

Their purpose was to see if Li Zhaodi was outside, and if not, they would go home.

Lin Sanrong and Ah Li walked around the fence, and found Li Zhaodi who was crying in front of the haystack.

She was a little dark at first, and the sky was a little dim, if not for hearing her crying, Lin Sanrong and Ah Li probably wouldn't have been able to find her.

The skinny little man is curled up in the haystack, the thumbs of the shoes on his feet are all exposed, the picture looks really pitiful.

Ah Li called out "Sister Zhaodi" in a childish voice.

Only then did Li Zhaodi realize that someone was coming, and immediately raised her head to see that it was Ah Li.

"Why are you here, Lili?"

"Sister Zhaodi, do you have no meal tonight? We brought you rice balls, so you don't have to go hungry."

Hearing these words, Li Zhaodi, who had been suffering so much, lost her defenses all of a sudden, and tears fell down in big ones.

"Sister Zhaodi, don't cry, don't cry."

After Ah Li finished speaking, he put the two rice balls into Li Zhaodi's hands.

Lin Sanrong felt uncomfortable watching from the sidelines.

"Don't feel bad, hurry up and eat something. When your mother finds out, you probably won't be able to eat it. It will be dark soon, so we will go back first."

Hearing this, Li Zhaodi quickly wiped her tears with her sleeve, and said "thank you" to Ah Li and Lin Sanrong.

Looking at the backs of them leaving, they ate the rice balls with big mouthfuls. When they tasted like meat, their eyes became moist again.

When she came back today, she was scolded by her mother and asked her to go to the mountain to collect a basket of firewood before going home.

When she came back, the family was eating, and no one called her to eat.

When she went to get a bowl of rice for herself, her mother pushed her to the ground and scolded her.

"What to eat, your brother isn't full in my stomach yet! Get out of here quickly, don't eat tonight, you won't die of hunger."

Her father Li Daniu and her grandmother Liu Cuihua glanced at her in disgust before going to eat on their own.

Li Zhaodi got up without crying and walked to the haystack outside the yard. She has long been sensible in such a family environment.

Because such things happen almost every few days, just because she is not a boy.

Ah Li's actions warmed her heart, and she smiled with tears streaming down her face as she ate.

……

The next day, Lin Darong and his wife took Da Lang and Shi Lang to their grandmother's house.

Some time ago, their natal family asked someone to send a letter telling them to go, and then they made time to visit relatives.

They just left.

Li Dazhuang and several children in the village stood outside the Lin family's yard and shouted to Erlang Saburo in the yard.

"Erlang Saburo, today we are going to catch fish by the river, are you going?"

Erlang and Saburo also want to go to the river to play.

"Wait, I'll tell my mother."

Then went into the house.

At this time, Mrs. Yan was combing Ah Li's hair and braiding it.

"Mother, can Saburo and I go catch fish?"

Yan raised her head and glanced at him, "The riverside is too dangerous, besides, if you leave, who will Lili play with, it's better not to go, let Da Zhuang and the others play in the courtyard!"

"Sister-in-law, I also want to catch fish. The fish is delicious."

Hearing what Ah Li said, Yan pampered and scratched her little nose with her fingers.

"If Lili wants to go, then go! I will go with you to see."

Erlang was flustered by the wind.

"Mother, you are really my own mother."

"Stinky boy, don't be poor, go get the wooden barrel and let's go! I have to come back early to cook for your grandma and send it to the field."

Lin Erlang happily called Sanlang to get the barrel.

After Yan locked the door, he took Ah Li's little hand and walked to the river with a group of children.

The weather in September is still a bit hot when the sun is shining.

Yan Shi was looking at the river to see if there were any edible wild vegetables.

Erlang Saburo took off his shoes and speared fish with branches in shallow water.

Ah Li also took off his shoes, and sat on a rock, dangling his two fleshy little feet in the water.

She likes this place and the water so much, she even wants to plunge into the river and swim around.

But Mrs. Yan told her thousands of times not to go into the water, she is a good child and must be obedient.

I had to play with the water with my feet and have a good time.

After a while, Li Dazhuang and the others had already caught half a bucket of fish.

Erlang Saburo and the others forked for a long time and failed to catch a single fish, so they were a little discouraged.

It seems that today's fish is not available.

Seeing that they didn't catch a single fish, Li Dazhuang planned to give them two, but Erlang refused.

People finally caught it, so how could I have the nerve to want it.

The two men lowered their heads and were about to find Ah Li to go home.

When they walked up to Ah Li with the empty wooden barrel, they were stunned again by the scene before them.
