Walking into the village, Di Tou got a couple of odd gazes as he was returning to the village with a lost child in the afternoon after asking around about village drama in the morning, but seeing that Xiao Ai wasn't particularly struggling, nobody bothered to say anything.
Instead, the majority of the disgusted and suspicious gazes were directed at Xiao Ai, who couldn't help but hide closer to Di Tou to hide away. Looking at Xiao Ai's eerily pale skin and his small stature, many of the people in the village couldn't help but whisper and wonder if Xiao Ai had secretly been sold by his mother or if he had some odd sickness.
Not knowing what to do, Xiao Ai couldn't help but wonder if it was his fault, and he tugged lightly on Di Tou's robe and said in a soft voice, "Uncle, we don't have to get fried chicken. We can just go find mom."
