Chapter 22 Chen Jiusi, You Are Too Bold
As soon as he got home, Chen Jie saw Xiao Douding sitting at the door watching a few children playing with pig bones.
That is the pig's kneecap, which is the favorite toy for children of this age.
If a child of this era could have a pig's crutch like this, it would be like a child having a set of Transformers nowadays, and he would be envied by all the other children.
At this time, the little kid looked enviously at the children outside who were selling pig bones. There were both boys and girls among them, the oldest was no more than six or seven years old, and the youngest was only about four years old.
At this time, he was squatting on the ground playing with pig bones.
Only the little girl was sitting alone at the door, no one paid any attention to her, and she looked very pitiful.
Chen Jie walked over, looked at the little kid and asked, "What's wrong? Why don't you play with them?"
The little bean pouted and said, "I don't want to play with them."
After hearing this, the child not far away said, "We are the ones who don't want to play with you."
"You are talking nonsense. I don't want to play with you..."
The little kid shouted anxiously, but the other kids said, "We just don't want to play with you!"
After hearing this, Chen Jie looked at the children and said, "Why don't you play with Ruirui?"
When Chen Jie asked this question, the children stopped talking and ran away.
Chen Jie looked at the little kid and asked, "Why are they..."
"It's me who doesn't play with them."
Xiao Douding argued. Chen Jie touched Xiao Douding's head. The little guy was quite stubborn, so he squatted down and said, "Then why don't you take them to play?"
"They, they said my sister is a jinx, and I am a little jinx. Playing with me will bring bad luck..."
Listening to the little kid's words, Chen Jie sighed. A child would never think of such vicious language. It must have been taught by an adult. From this, we can see how much the Su sisters had suffered in the past.
The little kid said this, but his eyes were fixed on the rhubarb apricots in Chen Jie's hand.
"Brother-in-law, what is this?"
Chen Jie couldn't help laughing when he saw her greedy look. How could she not know that these were apricots?
You're asking this question even though you already know the answer, it's obvious that you want to eat it.
"Apricots, but they're a little hard and sour."
"Baji~ Can I have a taste?"
The little kid smacked his lips and looked at Chen Jie expectantly.
"If you don't mind the sourness, just eat it."
I gave the apricots to the little kid. He took one, took a bite, and his expression changed immediately because it was sour.
Chen Jie thought she would give up, but unexpectedly, after just a while of adapting, she took another small bite, followed by a grin, but Shao Huan took another bite.
Just like that, one bite after another, feeling sour and happy, I actually ate most of it.
This child is really not picky about food.
Chen Jie thought about taking the little kid home. The meal was already ready at home. They would have rice with lard residue for lunch today.
The refined meat oil has been packed into a sealed jar. This time, a whole jar of meat oil was refined. If you use it sparingly, it will be enough for two or three months. However, Chen Jie doesn't want to eat too vegetarian food, so this amount of meat oil is only enough for one month.
The lard residue has been served out and chopped into small pieces while it is still hot. Then the freshly steamed sorghum rice is served out, and the lard residue is added, along with some chopped wild onions and a little soy sauce.
A bowl of rice mixed with lard residue is ready.
"dinner time."
Su Yunjin called out, and then brought the meal to the table. The little kid couldn't wait any longer, and now he was staring at the rice mixed with lard, drooling.
Chen Jie filled a large bowl for her and another large bowl for Su Yunjin. When he handed them to Su Yunjin, he said, "Thank you for your hard work, my lady." Su Yunjin's body paused, and blushed.
It's an amazing feeling.
Chen Jie served himself a bowl, and then said to Su Yunjin, "Madam, serve Ruirui a bowl of lard residue this afternoon."
"Ok?"
Su Yunjin looked at Chen Jie in confusion.
Chen Jie smiled and said, "Rui Rui, in the afternoon, you move a small stool and take the lard residue to the door to eat. If there are children who want to play with you, give them a piece and let them play with you in the future."
"Ah? Why give such good lard to those annoying people?"
The little kid looked at Chen Jie in confusion.
Chen Jie smiled and said, "Rui Rui, you have to remember one thing, people must have friends. Only when you have more friends can you live a good life. You don't want to play alone every day, listen to your brother-in-law, I promise that in the future, you will be followed by a group of children."
The little bean blinked and said, "Really?"
"Listen to my brother-in-law, that's right."
Chen explained, while Su Yunjin said, "Isn't this too... our family is not rich."
Chen Jie smiled and said, "It will be fine. With me here, our family will never lack food."
As he spoke, Chen Jie touched his arms and said, "By the way, my lady, I redeemed this for you."
Chen explained and took out an old hairpin.
When Su Yunjin saw the hairpin, her body shook noticeably. She stared at it blankly and tears came down.
This hairpin was the only relic her mother left her, but unfortunately she pawned it at a pawn shop.
That day, she was beaten by Chen Jiusi again. She was so desperate that she saw no hope. She took her hairpin to the pawnshop and pawned it for 200 coins. Later, she used the 200 coins to buy a packet of arsenic and two kilograms of fine rice.
I poisoned Chen Jiusi, but he found out...
I thought I would never see this hairpin again in my life, but I saw it again today.
She held back her tears and cried so sadly.
She held the hairpin in her hands against her chest and sobbed.
The little kid looked at his sister in confusion, but his hands were still putting the pork dregs rice into his mouth. Why was his sister crying again? Was it because the pork dregs rice was so delicious that she was crying?
Chen Jie looked at Su Yunjin. He could feel the woman's mood. Then he reached out and held her hand.
Su Yunjin felt her hands being wrapped by a big hand, and her heart was shaken. The slightly warm feeling was something she had never felt before.
Chen Jie came to her ear and said, "It's over. Everything is over. From now on, I will let you and Ruirui live the best life in the world."
Su Yunjin looked up and met Chen Jie's eyes. At that moment, she melted in the man's gentle eyes. She had never thought that this man would be so gentle.
"Eat, let's eat."
Su Yunjin and Chen Jie looked into each other's eyes, and she lowered her head shyly for a moment. From Chen Jie's perspective, her ears were red, like an attractive peach. He really wanted to take a bite of it.
Bang!
When the love reached its peak, Chen Jie kissed her directly. Su Yunjin covered her face in surprise and looked at Chen Jie in disbelief with a blushing face. The child is still there, you are too bold.
The little kid seemed to have heard something. He looked up at the two of them, his mouth moving like a hamster, and then he lowered his head to continue eating, ignoring the two strange adults!
