"Big sister, did you know? Today is the first time I've spoken to my mother from the bottom of my heart. I've always wanted to talk to her before, but I couldn't find the time to do so. From morning to night, she's always very busy.

Squatting on the stone floor, Qiao put down the wooden stick she was using to beat her clothes. With her white, soaked fingers, she tidied up the broken hair hanging by her cheeks and turned her head to look at Qimu.

"But today, I've said so many things to her. It feels like I've spent my whole life talking to her. I've said them all today."

"Actually, originally, when my mother entered the room, she didn't even look at me and directly told me to go do something. However, at that time, I also didn't know what had happened to me. *

"My mother thought I hadn't heard her, so she called out to me a few more times. I still didn't respond. She panicked and rushed in front of me. She pointed at my nose and scolded me."

"She scolded me so harshly, she scolded me with her little hoof and slut. I didn't cry, she scolded me enough just like that. Anyway, I was born to her. If she wants to beat me up or curse me, what can I do?"

"She's my mother. Even if my mother strangles me, I can't blame her for coming to the underworld."

"But my mom was cursing... She suddenly stopped scolding. Frowning, she touched my face and asked, "Little girl, what's going on? Why is it so red? Who hit you! Tell your mother! 'See if I tear him apart, who dares to hit my little girl! '

As Qiao spoke to here, her eyes blinked a few times as if there were tears flashing through them. She looked at Qimu with a faint and moving smile. Taking a deep breath, she continued:

"After that, I told my mother what happened this morning, and did as my big sister taught me. Unexpectedly, after hearing it, my mother got especially angry, and didn't even have the work to do anymore, so she kept asking me if there was anything else … "This is the first time my mother has taken the initiative to talk to me …"

"Big sister, today at noon, my mother pulled me to the main house to make a ruckus with my grandparents. In fact, I'm actually a little happy in my heart because my family has been in a mess lately, but I don't know why, but I'm still happy. Am I not that bad?"

Looking at Qiao's lowered head, guilty and uneasy expression, as if she had done something immoral, Qimu slightly smiled and gently advised.

"Coincidentally, little sister isn't bad at all. I understand that. The reason you're happy is because today, your mother said a lot of things to you and even wanted to uphold justice for you."

"You don't have to feel bad about this matter. Even if you didn't do anything today, our family would still have caused a ruckus. There is no difference between the left and the right."

How often did Zhang Chuncao ignore Qiao? Just because she said a few more words to her own mother, Qiao was so happy inside?

"Yes."

Qiao timidly answered and picked up the blackened wooden stick to start washing her clothes. However, she only knocked a few times before turning her head to speak to Qimu.

"Big sister, I'm almost done bathing. I'll help you wash after I'm done."

"Mm. Alright."

Today, she always felt that Qiao had talked a little too much. She still remembered the last few times when she had asked her questions, she had always kept her head down, timid and afraid of speaking out loud. She always had to endure her heart's guidance before she was willing to spit out half a sentence.

On the yellow river bank, Yangyang and Ran were sitting on the mud while digging. Their small hands were dirty and funny.

Qimu looked at Yangyang affectionately. From time to time, she would wipe Ran's face with the back of her hand, but instead, she would wipe Yiran's white face until it was dark. Yangyang himself saw it and peeked at it, showing a cute look of guilt.

Qimu pursed her lips slightly. As long as the two children were having fun, it was good enough. She turned around and imitated Qiao, patting her clothes time and time again.

"..."

"Big sister, I'm done washing. Let me help you."

After Qiao packed her things, she took her wooden stick and moved her body closer to Qimu. She grabbed an unwashed shirt and started to hit Qimu with it. "Pa, pa, pa."

Seeing this, Qimu smiled and pursed her lips, casually patting the clothes in front of her somewhat absent-mindedly. After a moment of hesitation, she finally raised her eyes to look at Qiao, seemingly a little embarrassed. She poked Qiao's arm lightly with her finger, lowered her voice, and said:

"Little sister, I'm feeling anxious. Is there a latrine here?"

"Huh?"

Qiao didn't seem to hear him clearly. She looked at Qimu with a puzzled expression and asked straightforwardly:

"Big sister, what did you just say? What is it? "

Qimu pursed her lips, blushing a little. She felt like crying but had no tears. She thought to herself, I shouldn't have drank so much water today. I didn't feel anything when I came here. He really couldn't hold it in any longer!

"Is there a latrine here?"

This time, Qiao listened seriously. Upon hearing this, she also smiled in embarrassment and softly said:

"Big sister, where did this toilet come from?"

"Everyone, we all go there to solve our problems."

Qiao stretched out her hand and shyly pointed in a direction. Qimu looked in the direction Qiao was pointing in. That small forest was filled with dense vegetation and was quite remote. It could be considered an excellent place to resolve the internal emergency.

"Sis, I'll be back soon. Please help me keep an eye on Yangyang and Ran."

"Alright."

Qimu put down Mu stick and covered her stomach. She didn't have time to say goodbye to the two little guys before she slipped away into the woods. Her expression was solemn. There were three emergencies for people, and internal emergencies were a big deal!
