Too pitiful, this girl is really too pitiful. How did she end up with such parents?
"Is there more?" Their voices were all choked up.
Their children, what were they doing at that time? Whining to them, asking to buy toys, to buy snacks.
It was hard for them to imagine, such a small girl carrying a large basket of pigweed, walking on the path.
Even more unimaginable was the fact that the little girl had needles inside her body.
"Uncle, I know too. Everyone in our village knows that my second uncle is sick, he has no love for his own kids, doting on a stranger instead.
You don’t know, they just need to wear little skirts, dig up fish mint on the hillside, and they think they’re working. They even feel wronged, with Bai Zhi playing at home.
What’s so hard about that, wielding a hoe, who can’t do a bit of digging? Let them go cut pigweed, feed pigs, and try that?
And then there are the tasks in the fields, digging the ground, weeding, and carrying stuff.
Which one do you say is exhausting?
Even adults aren’t as tired as her, if this isn’t abuse, then what is it?"
Bai Fei was particularly indignant as she spoke, yet those few people still felt as if Bai Zhi was taking advantage of them, which made her feel even more disgusted, what a bunch of trash.
Sick in the head, completely insane.
"Okay, we get it, but do you remember when your father was good to you?"
Actually, there was no need to ask, of course not, right?
"Maybe I just thought he was quite good when he didn’t scold me. But now, I don’t care. I have my grandfather, my cousin, and Wu Wa, I don’t need them anymore."
Bai Zhi lifted her head, and once again, there were specks of starlight in her eyes. She didn’t need them anymore.
"Right, you’re such a good girl, and your mother? We still need to go ask your mother."
For some reason, they felt a stinging in their noses. Facing such a sensible little girl, their eyes were somewhat sore.
"She went to the doctor’s office."
The traditional Chinese medicine doctor had already arrived, so she went to the doctor’s office.
In the office, Ye Xiu sat anxiously on a chair to the side, waiting for someone.
Because Li Mo had said that the person was in a hurry to return and didn’t know if they would agree, after all, the person had left the medical field many years before, and it was only because his master had connections with them that they were able to get in touch.
Bai Xin was anxious too. Li Mo had said, even if that person didn’t come, they would have to make up their minds about the surgery for Xingxing’s foot. They couldn’t wait any longer.
Just then, the door opened.
Bai Xin and Ye Xiu craned their necks to look.
The moment they saw who it was, they were all stunned.
"Ye Xiu, Bai Xin, what are you doing here? Bai Xin, didn’t I tell you to stay home and take care of Xingxing? What are you doing here making a fuss?"
Bai Dan was surprised to see Bai Xin and Ye Xiu as well. They were supposed to go straight back, but who knew someone had asked Old Han for help.
"No way. That girl is Xingxing, isn’t she..."
Bai Dan thought of this possibility, and his face darkened instantly.
Bai Dan gazed sternly at Bai Xin, hoping she would say it wasn’t so, that the person wasn’t Xingxing, just someone they all knew.
But Bai Xin looked down and spoke quietly.
Bai Dan was shocked, unable to believe what he had heard, how could it be Xingxing.
"Old Han, you come here. Right now, immediately. Get in here, and stop eating for once."
Yes, the reason Old Han hadn’t come in was because he was eating a sesame pancake.
