Chapter 533: Little Kids in a Row
Chapter 533: Chapter 533: Little Kids in a RowMing Qin’s seeds still showed no signs of sprouting, and even the original clean soil was slowly starting to smell.
Just when she was about to give up, Nanzhi burst through the courtyard door, excitedly clutching a bag of soil.
"Nanzhi, slow down!"
Ming Qin had just dealt with the foul-smelling soil when she saw Nanzhi striding towards her.
Seeing her walking so briskly with her swelling belly, Ming Qin’s heart leapt into her throat.
"Here, this is for you!"
Nanzhi was bearing quite a load, and even a short walk left her exhausted.
Sweat beads were even forming on her forehead.
"What is it that made you rush like this?"
Ming Qin took the bag with a puzzled expression, but her eyes widened in surprise when she smelled the fresh aroma of the soil.
This was fresh soil!
"Nanzhi, where did you get this from?"
Ming Qin had a look of disbelief on her face, but the heavy bag in her hand reminded her that this was real!
"Don’t worry about where it came from. I’ve given it to you now. I need to go back, I can’t stand any longer."
Nanzhi waved her hands as she spoke.
Looking at her near-term pregnancy, she was running out of breath after only a few steps.
Her belly was simply too heavy.
"Go back slowly!"
Ming Qin was scared just looking at her stomach.
Was her belly this big when she was pregnant with Little Yuanbao?
Ming Qin tried to recall, but it had been so long she shook her head, left everything behind, and ran back to the house as if she was carrying an unparalleled treasure.
This soil suggested there were still clean places outside!
They were sure to be able to grow crops successfully!
Nanzhi’s previously low and doubtful mood was relieved, but the children in the residence had been persistently depressed for a long time.
Six little children sat huddled, each of them with a gloomy expression.
Yuanbao was the smallest, but everyone was subconsciously protecting Yueyue, trying to prevent her from remembering those unpleasant things.
But today, Yueyue suddenly started crying again.
"What should we do then? Should we go out?"
Xiaomi, the eldest among the children, and also a little spy helping Shen Wenchen quietly watch over these children, asked.
"No need to go out, Zhuzi’s grandmother has already been driven out. Now we can’t find her."
Little Yuanbao shook her head, seriously saying.
Her father didn’t tell them to drive Zhuzi’s grandmother out of the village, but the people from Datian Village were afraid that he would sue them. They took advantage of the night to drive Zhuzi’s grandmother out.
She knew that Zhuzi’s grandmother was mad, and there was nothing to eat outside. She wouldn’t survive long.
Maybe she has already died.
Little Yuanbao had seen too much life and death. For those who weren’t close to her, she didn’t have much feeling.
"I think Xiaoqi might be fine."
Shen Zhiyu pressed his lips together and voiced his thoughts.
These words were not a casual remark to comfort Yueyue.
It was his real thought.
"Why? Xiaoqi fell into the river. Didn’t Uncle Chi and others
Shen Zhiyu also froze, as if he had never considered this question before.
Only Lin Zihan tugged at Xiaomi’s sleeve, asking him not to say more.
Miaomi’s words hit Yuanbao hard, and she was slow to respond.
What if, what if that person is not Xiaoqi?
Could they have mistaken someone else for him all along?
The next moment, Yuanbao couldn’t hold it anymore and started sobbing.
She was afraid, if Xiaoqi wasn’t her husband, was he in trouble?
Yueyue took Yuanbao into her arms and gently patted her back.
"Don’t cry, Yuanbao, my brother will be okay."
Yueyue’s voice was soft and soothing, bringing comfort.
She knew that the matter with Zhuzi wasn’t due to Zhuzi’s grandmother making up false accusations.
Her brother had always been a very smart person.
He knew how to protect them.
He had been thinking of ways to take care of her from when they were still in the village. Later, on the run, after parting with Wang’s family, it was him who had led her all the way in their escape. Many times, they were on the brink of being caught by the refugees, but it was her brother who led her to escape each time.
Zhuzi wasn’t a good person.
At least for them.
She knew that her brother always cherished Yuanbao.
Her brother was usually indifferent, but he could never accept that those he cared about were harmed.
Zhuzi had almost hurt Yuanbao, and nearly hurt Brother Zhiyu, and that was why he attacked Zhuzi.
She also knew that her brother could originally have stabbed him with a dagger, but he didn’t because he saw Yuanbao.
He didn’t want Yuanbao to see his other side, and she also helped him keep it a secret.
Looking at Little Yuanbao, who was crying and gasping for breath, Yueyue softly consoled her.
Xiaoqi, Brother Xiaoqi, will be, will be okay- waaaah-"
When one child starts crying, it throws the whole group into chaos and they can only hastily comfort her.
While Xiaomi, the troublemaker, remained awkwardly on the side.
