Chapter 516 Huiniang's Plea

Mo Qianrui's first reaction was that the answer was settled.

Although he was not very confident in his method of forcing questions, and was also afraid of inadvertently revealing what he knew, Mo Qianrui was hesitant about how to speak.But when facing Hui Niang, you need to think twice, but when facing Xiao Xi, you don't need it at all.

"Come on, let's talk first."

Quickly pulling the two of them in, Mo Qianrui was extremely enthusiastic.

Seeing this, the embarrassment on Hui Niang's face decreased slightly, while Xiao Xi, who was following behind her, followed in with a bewildered expression, as if she didn't know what happened at all.

Although there are not many servants in the family, there is still a sweeping woman and a servant.

That young man is no one else, but the little fruit who was summoned by the Mo family's grandma yesterday. Of course, this is just a nickname, and his big name... probably even worse, the young man is reluctant to say it out.

Asking Xiao Guozi to go to the kitchen to bring some tea, Mo Qianrui looked at Huiniang inquiringly after picking up some refreshments.

Hui Niang smiled at Mo Qianrui, but the smile was not very natural.

After holding the teacup for a long time, he turned his head weakly to Xiao Xi and said, "Xiao Xi, I have something to tell the big girl, otherwise, why don't you go to the yard for a while?"

Before Xiao Xi could speak, Mo Qianrui answered, "Let's go to the next door and look for Erya, and help me see if that girl is playing tricks or not."

Xiao Xi didn't doubt that there was him, and ran out in response.

"Okay, everyone has left. If you have anything to say, Hui Niang, just speak up." If Mo Qianrui was only skeptical at first, seeing Huiniang's attitude just now, he became even more suspicious.Even she, who has only met Xiao Xi a few times, knows the girl's temperament, so how could Hui Niang not know?
Knowing that Xiao Xi had no intentions, she still insisted on pushing her away.Either something big is happening, or it has something to do with Xiao Xi herself.

Or, it's simply A Lin's business!
Mo Qianrui's guess was right, but unfortunately, the result was completely wrong.

As if she had finally summoned up her courage, Hui Niang put down the teacup she had been holding for a long time, took a deep breath, and said, "Girl, can you take Xiao Xi as your apprentice?"

……

In Mo's kitchen.

"Xiao Xi, are you coming to play with me? You can't do it today. My elder sister is very bad. She herself dislikes being tired during this time, but she has assigned me a lot of homework. I have been busy since early in the morning. I'm afraid I'll have to work until the second half of the day to get it done."

Erya was very happy to see her long-lost friend.

Although her relationship with Ling Niang is better, she has never had any bad feelings with Xiao Xi.Even if those things happened before, Erya understood what happened.Besides, those things really didn't have much to do with Xiao Xi.Because, if Xiao Xi really had to choose, she would prefer Ling Niang as her sister-in-law.

However, it is no longer necessary to say these things.

Hui Niang is engaged to A Lin, and Erya herself is also engaged to Li Sandun. From now on, everyone will be in-laws who are beating around the bush, so naturally they have to give each other some face.

However, Xiao Xi obviously didn't think so much at all.

"Ah, you are so amazing, did you do all of this? God, just now your elder sister told me that she wanted me to come over and help her see if you were slacking off, but you have already done so much Work? That's amazing."

Xiao Xi stared intently at the small square table by the stove, the rudiment of the cake that had already been molded, and suddenly her nose twitched.

Before Erya opened her mouth to answer her words, she said in surprise, "It's the smell from yesterday, but... where did it come from?"

The cake Tang Dian on the table is just a prototype, it has not been put into the oven yet, although it has some fragrance, it is extremely faint.But there was clearly a long scent in the air, Xiao Xi walked around the stove, and was quickly attracted by the oven against the wall: "Is it here?"

"Yes, this is an oven. A few days ago, my elder sister had someone build it. It is specially used to bake these donuts and biscuits." Erya's temper is much better than Mo Qianrui's, Moreover, she has known Xiao Xi for a long time, and she also knows that Xiao Xi is just a little curious and has no evil intentions, so she immediately opened her mouth to explain.

"That's great, Erya, why are you so capable?"

Turning around in the kitchen again and again, Xiao Xi showed obvious envy and admiration on her face.

She, Er Ya and Ling Niang are all young girls of the same age, but unfortunately, the family circumstances of the three are too different, and their temperaments are also very different.Don't look at the past when they were in the village, the three of them seemed to be inseparable, but it was Er Ya and Ling Niang who really had a good relationship.Xiao Xi knew very well that it would be more appropriate to say that she is not so much a playmate as a little follower.

However, she is not jealous, she is just envious, and occasionally feels inferior.

"capable?"

Unexpectedly, after hearing Xiao Xi's words, Er Ya immediately became depressed.

"What's wrong?"

"Oh, you think I'm capable, but my elder sister hurts me every day." Sighing and shaking her head, the corner of Erya's eyes caught sight of the figure of Mo's grandma outside the kitchen. Get to work.

On the contrary, Xiao Xi, who was completely confused about her status, was at a loss.

After waiting for quite a while, Erya stretched out her hand, and explained helplessly while shaking her arms.

"Xiao Xi, you don't even know how miserable I am. In fact, I shouldn't speak ill of my elder sister. It's a good thing she's just stricter. Besides, she doesn't stop hurting me. Brother Sandun is often bullied by her. My grandma is much more scary, she likes to scold me, and when she gets angry, she even pinches and pinches me! Xiao Xi, look..."

Er Ya lifted up her sleeves to show Xiao Xi.

There were indeed a few bruises on her arm, and it didn't look like the injury was serious, but Er Ya's skin had become much fairer in the past two years, and it was quite obvious.

Xiao Xi was surprised. In her world, although there was a lot of work to do, her family was not well-off, she was not good-looking, and she was not as smart as Er Ya and Ling Niang, but she was beaten... …

"Does it hurt?"

Stretching out her hand tremblingly to touch it, the surprise on Xiao Xi's face turned into sympathy and heartache.

Erya, on the other hand, put down her sleeves nonchalantly. Seeing the expression on Xiao Xi's face, she seemed to feel that she had gone too far, and quickly explained: "Actually, it's nothing. My grandma doesn't torment me every day. It doesn't hurt. It's my father, you didn't see, my grandma beats my father every day. The beating is very hard, sometimes with a stick, sometimes with a door. By the way, once it was just He picked up two kitchen knives to hunt down my father!"

Xiao Xi's eyes widened, her face was full of disbelief, plus... terrified.

"Erya, help me tell your elder sister that I don't want to learn cooking!"
