Chapter 229 - 229 Crying Little Girl
In addition to Li Shun, Luo Ziyang also surprised everyone.
Previously, after Li Xiaoran made boiled fish, Luo Ziyang developed an affinity for eating fish.
As long as it was a fish, it wouldn’t escape Luo Ziyang’s hands.
!!
Big fish, small fish, those with many bones and those with few bones.
Boiled, fried, and dried.
Sliced or whole.
Anyway, there was nothing Luo Ziyang couldn’t do with fish, unless he didn’t think of it.
Today, there was a large plate of crispy dried fish on the dining table.
Surprisingly, this crispy dried fish wasn’t fried in oil at all. It was roasted.
They sprinkled a layer of dry chili noodles before they ate the crispy fish.
The dried fish gained popularity as soon as it appeared. Even the children at the table liked it.
“Brother, look at the dried fish I made. It can be used as dry rations! If it’s inconvenient for us to eat when we’re outside, we can take out some dried fish and eat them anytime. You don’t have to spit out the fish bones inside. Just chew them into pieces and swallow them!” Luo Ziyang looked at Luo Cheng happily and said.
Luo Cheng looked at the dried fish in his hand and thought of the taste from before. He then looked at Li Xiaoran.
“Looks like we’re going to start a big business again! We can’t let go of any fish!”
Li Xiaoran naturally understood what Luo Cheng was talking about and nodded in agreement.
“That’s a good idea! But it’s not easy to get fish!” Luo Ziyang frowned and said.
“Don’t worry! I’ve already arranged for people to raise fish!” Luo Cheng said with a smile.
When Luo Ziyang heard this, he stopped discussing it.
After lunch, dinner was the main event.
The main courses were all served at night.
Everything had been prepared in the morning. Now, they just had to wait for the evening to arrive before cooking.
Therefore, during these four hours, everyone could take a nap and relax.
It was rare for Li Shun and Zhao Xiu to have a chance to relax. They simply went to the village to talk to some friends.
Li Xiaoqing also went to play with Little Huzi and her other friends.
Luo Ziyang brought Big Yellow and the others out to run around in the fields.
It had been a long time since he had brought the few furry children out to have fun. He happened to have time today, so he brought them out to play.
Only Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran were left in the entire house.
Li Xiaoran took an afternoon nap every day, so when she woke up, the entire house was quiet.
After walking out of the room, Li Xiaoran called Luo Cheng’s name.
Strangely, Luo Cheng didn’t answer Li Xiaoran.
After looking around the house, Li Xiaoran didn’t see anyone.
“Where did everyone go? Did Luo Cheng go take a walk with Big Yellow and the others?” Li Xiaoran muttered as she came to the courtyard.
At this moment, Li Xiaoran suddenly sensed sadness from the corner of the wall. At the same time, she could vaguely hear the sound of a little girl crying.
Li Xiaoran thought for a moment, grabbed some candy from the central room, then walked towards the place where the crying was coming from.
When she walked in, Li Xiaoran saw a little girl curled up in the corner while crying.
Perhaps she was too sad, so she buried her head in her hands and didn’t notice Li Xiaoran approaching.
Feeling the little girl’s sadness and despair, Li Xiaoran felt a sense of heartache for some reason, as if she had seen the original owner of her body before she had transmigrated.
After taking out a candy from her pocket, Li Xiaoran softened her voice and tried her best to say in a kind tone, “Do you want to eat candy? I have one here! It’s a sweet candy!”
When the little girl heard Li Xiaoran’s voice, she looked up at her.
Her long eyelashes were still stained with tears, and her eyes were red from crying.
“Can I really eat it?”
“Sure! But you have to tell me why you’re crying.”
The little girl hesitated, but remained silent.
“I love stories. Tell me your story. As repayment, I’ll give you six candies!” As Li Xiaoran spoke, she took out the candies from her pocket and counted six of them before placing them in her palm.
Perhaps she wanted to try the sweet candies too much, but the little girl finally nodded and agreed.
Li Xiaoran peeled a candy and handed it to the little girl.
“Try them first. Tell me your story as you eat them! Someone once told me that when you’re sad, you’ll be happy if you eat candy, because candy is sweet, and eating sweet things makes you happy!”
The little girl seemed tempted by what Li Xiaoran mentioned. She reached out to take the candy and placed it in her mouth.
Although the little girl’s clothes looked dirty, her hands were very clean.
She carefully licked the candy with her tongue and a smile appeared on her little face.
“It’s sweet and delicious!”
“See, I’m not lying to you! Hurry up and eat them! You’ll be happy after eating them!” Li Xiaoran smiled at the little girl and said.
The young woman nodded, put the candy in her mouth, and ate it.
...
Li Xiaoran felt that she had already won the little girl’s trust, so she handed over the remaining five candies.
“Here, these are the candies I promised you. Take them!”
The young girl nodded and carefully put the five candies away in the pocket of her shirt.
After she put away the candies and tasted the sweetness, the little girl’s mood improved.
“They didn’t play with me! I was clearly having fun with Little Yu, but when Little Quan came, she didn’t let Little Yu play with me anymore. Little Quan said to Little Yu that she was her friend and could only play with her. She said that if Little Yu played with me again, she wouldn’t play with Little Yu anymore. Then, Little Yu really refused to play with me anymore!” The little girl remembered what she had promised and her eyes became sad.
“Do you have any other friends?” Li Xiaoran asked.
The little girl shook her head and then said, “The others are the same. They all bully me. My mother made me something delicious. When they saw it, they wanted to snatch my food. I didn’t give it to them, so they scolded me. I couldn’t outargue them. A girl who’s older than me said that I deliberately tripped her with my foot, but I didn’t. She was the one who tried to trip me, but no one listened to me. Everyone said that I deliberately tripped that girl!”
With that, the little girl’s tears fell again.
“Other than these incidents, is there anything else that is making you sad? How else did they bully you?” Li Xiaoran had already realized something and asked seriously.
