C28 Uncle Is a Thief

Yun Xiao bought a lot of rice, but didn't need any meat. Xishan Village depended on hunting for a living, so buying them at a cheaper price was easier for their own village.

The meat from the village is sold in Fengxian County, and you ran back to the county city to buy it before bringing it back to the village?

How stupid was that?

He also bought some seasonings and a lot of scattered items.

Yun Xiao was happy to buy it, but Huang had a question, was it really enough?

Ten taels of silver was not a small sum for rural people. It was enough for a large family to eat for a year.

However, Yun Xiao's appetite was five apiece, so it was very expensive to use the ingredients. Plus, it was almost winter and there was nothing in that small broken house to withstand the cold, so which one of them didn't need to spend money on?

Yun Xiao's explanation to Old Man Wang was that she found a job, but according to what Little Yellow said, there was no such thing!

What are you going to do after you've eaten your fill?

Little Yellow was not the only one worried, even Old Man Wang was stunned by Yun Xiao's crazy purchasing, "Xiaoxiao, what kind of rich job did you find? Why don't you just spend money and not go soft?"

"I'll tell you in secret. Actually, I have a pair of magical hands with healing powers." Yun Xiao said in a low, mysterious voice, "I can go and treat her ailment. She should be able to eat for three years just by opening her mouth once."

Hehe, do you believe us or not?

"You're making me happy again." Old Man Wang laughed, "Alright, alright, I won't ask you anymore. You just have to count for yourself."

Yun Xiao shrugged her shoulders.

Once we reach the Xishan Village, Old Man Wang said: "You have quite a lot of things, I'll take a detour to your house."

"Thank you, Uncle Wang." Yun Xiao didn't hesitate, but after she saw the person in the distance, she changed her explanation, "Wait, Uncle Wang, I'll come back to your house later to get these things. This is a bit inconvenient."

Old Man Wang looked over and saw Liu Zhi wandering around Yun Xiao's front yard from afar.

Since the owner was not here, he went over the fence and poked his head into the yard. He suddenly understood why Yun Xiao asked him to buy the lock a few days ago. "Do you need my old man's help?"

"No, it's nothing. Thank you, Uncle Wang." Yun Xiao tactfully refused to leave the oxcart with Little Yellow.

This time, Yun Xiao saw Liu Zhi enter the kitchen with her own eyes. When he came out, he had an empty hand and a face full of disgust while mumbling to himself.

When he got closer, he heard her say, "I told you, how could you all eat and drink so much at once? Last time, you clearly looked through everything but good stuff."

Unexpectedly, her uncle didn't feel surprised or sad at all when he found out that she had stolen all the remaining grains. After all, he wasn't a relative.

However, there was still anger. This was bullying.

"Little uncle, what are you doing in my kitchen?" Yun Xiao purposely shouted loudly.

Her voice startled Liu Zhi, who was caught off guard. At the same time, it attracted the attention of a few villagers nearby. Liu Zhi, who was thick-skinned, felt a little humiliated at the moment. "I'm your uncle, what's wrong with going into your kitchen to take a look?" Instead, why did you buy a lock for? Do you dislike people from our Xishan Village? "

"How could that be? Wasn't it just a few days ago that I didn't know anyone. Just like uncle, you took advantage of the time when I wasn't home to casually come into my house and take away all of my remaining food." Yun Xiao purposely said, "I nearly starved to death. You shouldn't lock a door, or else if I get a little crazy and even roll up my tattered clothes and bedding next time, wouldn't I freeze to death? "

Liu Zhi felt a little guilty, "What nonsense are you spouting? Don't you have any difficulties? Don't you still have our ancestor's house? There's nothing to keep you hungry or cold. "

Oh, that sounds good. Yun Xiao snorted inwardly.

Yun Xiao couldn't be bothered to unlock the door, so she asked him from the courtyard, "Then little uncle, why have you come specially today? What's the matter?"

"It's the thing I told you about last time. Your father's number seven has already passed, so he doesn't have any other concerns this time around, right?" Tomorrow we'll go to the Village Head's house and let everyone know. "

To have the village chief act as a witness and inform the villagers, this was something that he valued greatly.

Take care of the younger ones and the younger ones to support the older ones. But she, Yun Xiao, was a girl. Sooner or later, she would be married off.

Yun Xiao didn't understand, but now that the land deed had been settled half-way through, she became much more confident. "I really don't have any concerns now. I just don't want to acknowledge you as my godfather."

"What?" Say that again? " Liu Zhi instantly turned hostile as he glared fiercely at Yun Xiao, "Don't be so polite. We have good intentions to raise you. You really don't know what's good for you."

Thank you, but I don't need you to raise it.

"I said, I don't want to be your godfather." In his heart, he was still somewhat angry. Since you asked me sincerely to say it again, then I will satisfy you. Yun Xiao told Liu Zhi word for word calmly.

It was even more infuriating to see such an expression on Yun Xiao's face. Liu Zhi was so infuriated that he raised his hand to slap Yun Xiao.

Could Yun Xiao just stand there and give him a call? This is the house my mother left me, you can't kick me out of it, I don't have a father or mother, if I don't have a house now, I won't be able to live. "Wuwuwu, little uncle, don't hit me, don't drive me away."

The surrounding people looked over once again. Yun Xiao's voice wasn't soft. Everyone could hear her clearly. They didn't mind the commotion, but all surrounded and scolded Liu Zhi in a low voice.

"Uncle? So heartless."

"That's right. Xiaoxiao just lost her parents and became an orphan. It's already difficult enough, yet she wants to occupy my house."

"You're so wicked. Aren't you afraid that you'll lose your butt if you give birth to a son?"

"That's right. Maybe she's too dark, so she can't give birth to her son. She's just a little girl."

The surrounding villagers' discussions reached Liu Zhi's ears. It was heart-wrenching. Having no son was his biggest sore spot. They had been married for more than ten years and already had a daughter. She was about the same age as Yun Xiao, and she was also 13 years old this year.

"Stop, shut up." Liu Zhi was flustered and exasperated. He wanted to tear Yun Xiao's mouth apart.

Unfortunately, the more vicious Liu Zhi was, the more Yun Xiao cried pitifully and louder. The two of them chased each other around the yard, what a farce.

Liu Zhi could not stay any longer, if not he would be furious beyond belief. He spat: "What are you looking at, this is my Liu Family's house, why is it occupied by an outsider's child?" He threw down those vicious words and ran off gloomily.

The villagers comforted Yun Xiao a little before dispersing. Yun Xiao patted her sleeves and said to Little Yellow, "Aww, your throat is so thirsty. We won't be making spicy dishes tonight. Let's eat congee."

At last, he didn't need to smell the porridge. He felt gratified and said, "En, I like to eat porridge."
