Chapter 37 - Scorpion

Tang Huai: …

Did he see her obvious?

Tang Huai took a deep breath and smiled, "Jing Peng-ge is overthinking it. I was scared by your dog."

She was just like all the other children in the village, calling him Jing Pengge.

The way she suddenly smiled was like a flower that suddenly bloomed. It was very pretty.

Jing Peng looked at her, "You look better when you smile."

Moreover, when she smiled, her eyes were curved and she looked very sweet.

Tang Huai looked at Jing Peng and thought to herelf, "How come there are so many changes to the things and people of this life?" The only thing that doesn't change is that my uncles and aunts are together with my grandmother. "

Tang Huai took a wooden stick and left the Village Head's house.

Halfway there, she met his Second Uncle, Tang Youxin.

Tang Youxin asked her, "Tang Huai, where did you go?"

"At the Village Head's house."

"Why did you went to the Village Head's house?"

"Tang Li is at the Village Head's house watching TV." Tang Huai evaded the crucial point with a light voice.

Tang Youxin looked at the small steamer in her hand. "What's this?"

"Little steamer."

"What are you doing with that little steamer?"

"Steamed thing to eat." What an annoying question.

"Why aren't you watching TV at the Village Head's house?"

"I want to go home and read." On September 1st, she was about to enter middle school. After two generations, she had forgotten a lot of knowledge. She needed to review it.

"If you leave Tang Li at the Village Head's house watching TV, would she dare to return home alone?"

Tang Huai looked at Tang Youxin. "Second Uncle, I'll come pick her up in a bit."

Hearing Tang Huai's words, Tang Youxin seemed to have some sort of plan in his heart.

After a moment of silence, he asked again, "Your mom is currently recuperating, so she went to bed early, right?"

Tang Huai nodded her head. "Yes, she is very weak. If she goes to bed too late, she will lose her spirit the next day."

Tang Youxin no longer asked Tang Huai and went straight home.

Moreover, he was walking very fast.

Tang Huai looked at his back and slightly frowned. Tang Youxin was really weird ….

Back home, Tang Huai took out the sixth grade elementary school math textbook to read.

Her math results weren't as good as her Chinese ones, so she had to put in more effort.

She was a very positive person, both in her previous life and in this life.

She read the book and did the questions very seriously.

Liu Xiaoyu didn't bother her. After eating a few mouthfuls of pig feet, Liu Xiaoyu's breasts were full and she could feed Zihan.

Zihan, who had eaten her fill, was much more obedient than someone who ate milk powder. When she was full, she would sleep, and when she woke up, she would open her eyes and look at everything in front of her with curiosity.

Liu Xiaoyu slept during the day and slept at night. She was still in high spirits.

She couldn't sleep, so she simply got up and took out the clothes of Tang Huai and Tang Li to mend them.

Their clothes, sewn and mended, had been worn for a long time.

Time passed minute after minute, and Tang Huai was finally willing to put down his textbook.

Outside the room, she saw Liu Xiaoyu mending her clothes. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Mama, it's already so late. Why are you mending our clothes?"

"Since I'm free, I might as well. You have to wear some clothes when you go to school."

"When we reach the county town, I'll buy two new sets." Tang Huai said.

"Alright, You're in middle school now. You have to add new clothes, or else will be laughed at by your classmates." Junior high school, grown up.

"Let me make up for it." Tang Huai took the needle and thread and clothes from Liu Xiaoyu's hands.

Liu Xiaoyu sat in front of the bed looking at Tang Huai, her face full of gentleness and benevolence.

Although she had always hoped that she could have a son, she did not think highly of the son. As long as it was her own child, whether it's a son or daughter, she would love them so dearly.

She watched Tang Huai mending her clothes. Tang Huai didn't speak, and Zi Han fell asleep again. The room became very quiet.

The light from a flashlight outside the window quickly dimmed.

Liu Xiaoyu sat beside the window and closed it even in the summer. A light flashed, and she subconsciously looked outside.

At this moment, it was pitch black outside and he could not see anything.

Tang Huai, on the other hand, acted as if she hadn't seen anything and continued to mend his clothes as if nothing had happened.

In fact, she heard some movement outside the window.

After a few acupuncture points, Tang Huai raised her head and looked at Liu Xiaoyu.

Liu Xiaoyu also heard the commotion outside the window. She was about to ask if there was anyone outside when Tang Huai put her index finger next to her mouth and made a silencing gesture.

Liu Xiaoyu took a look and did not dare to say another word.

Then, Tang Huai raised up two fingers.

Liu Xiaoyu didn't understand. What was the meaning behind putting up two fingers? Was it two people outside the window?

Thinking of this, Liu Xiaoyu panicked. There couldn't be a thief, right?

Her family was already so poor, how could they even attract thieves?

Wasn't this thief too stupid?

Seeing that Liu Xiaoyu didn't understand, Tang Huai stood up and stood next to her. She whispered into her ear, telling her the truth.

When Liu Xiaoyu heard this, the panic she felt earlier turned into anger.

She gritted her teeth and glanced angrily at the window.

"Mom, it's getting late. Hurry up and go to sleep. I'm going to mend this clothes, so I'll go pick up Tang Li." Tang Huai pointed out.

"Ha …" Liu Xiaoyu yawned and lay down on the bed. "I'm so tired."

Five minutes later, Liu Xiaoyu who had her eyes closed seemed to be asleep. Tang Huai put down the needle and thread, took out a flashlight, and went out of the room to pick up Tang Li.

After she had gone far, the two people who were lying outside the window sneaked into her house with their stooped bodies.

Tang Huai deliberately left the door unlocked and turned on all the lights in the room.

After the two entered the room, they saw Liu Xiaoyu and the baby on the bed sleeping soundly. Only then did they slip into Tang Huai's room.

There was a worn desk next to Tang Huai's bed, and one of its drawers was locked.

"The passbook must be in this drawer. Tang Youxin, quick." Su Lin Fang lowered her voice.

In the entire room, only this table had a drawer that was locked. Only this table was a little better, and it had drawers.

Where else can a passbook be kept if not in it?

"I'll see if I can find the key." Tang Youxin was rummaging through Tang Huai's desk. His movements were fast, but he didn't dare to put down his weight, afraid that he would wake Liu Xiaoyu outside.

"I'll help too." Su Lin Fang opened an unlocked drawer and rummaged through it.

There were a lot of things in the drawer, all kinds of random things. There were also iron nails, screws …

Seeing so many things piled up in the drawer, Tang Youxin felt sure that the key must also be in the drawer.

He reached his hand in and fished around inside.

Suddenly, his finger hurt, causing him to gasp.

He thought he had been pricked by a needle and wasn't paying much attention to it. He continued to rummage through.

At this moment, a scorpion crawled out of the drawer, and when Tang Youxin saw it, he shouted, "Poison Scorpion! Scorpion! "

When Su Lin heard this, she was shocked and hurriedly jumped back half a meter.

The room was very small, and Su Lin's jump knocked over the wooden chair Tang Huai was sitting on.

The alarm in the room "awakened" Liu Xiaoyu, who was lying on the bed.

Liu Xiaoyu suddenly sat up. At this moment, Tang Huai also rushed in.

Tang Huai had known for a long time that it was Tang Youxin and Su Lin Fang.

She didn't pick up Tang Li at all. When she saw them enter from a distance, she came back and stood in front of the door for a long time.

She was just about to call the Village Chief over so that he could catch Tang Youxin and lock him up in the police station for a few days, but when she heard him shout that there was a poisonous scorpion, she was afraid for Liu Xiaoyu and Zihan, so she rushed in.

"Oh no, I got stung by a scorpion!" Tang Youxin looked at his index finger and shouted.
