the old residence
Madam Xie had cooked the meal early in the morning, waiting for Xuexue to come back so they could eat. However, despite her intense looking, there was no sign of her return.
As the sky gradually darkened and the moon silently climbed atop the tree branches, Xuexue still hadn't returned, leaving Big Bull extremely anxious. He had thought about going to town to find her several times, but was stopped by Madam Xie each time.
Xuexue not returning late at night made her anxious too, but thinking about Big Bull, who wasn't very bright, and the possibility of losing him as well, what would she do? Madam Xie was frantic. The Mo family was unreliable as well, and she didn't know where else to ask for help, so she could only lie on the locust tree at the entrance of the village and weep bitterly.
"Mom, don't cry. When you cry, Chuner wants to cry too," Chuner said with a pouting mouth, and then burst into loud tears. The scene was very tragic.
