Chapter 137: The Little Fool of the Times 26 Made another friend
The lamb did not doubt it and asked, "What shall we have for breakfast?"
"What do you want to eat? I'll take you downstairs for a walk."
"it is good!"
The two of them went downstairs to have breakfast again. They waited until the lamb was full before going back. Transportation in the village was inconvenient, so it was already noon when they got home.
There was nothing to do today, so after lunch, the two of them took a basin of clothes to the river to wash.
There were a few people squatting by the river, all of them were women, either ladies or little girls. In short, there was not a single grown man like Chen Linye.
The lamb had some candy in its mouth, and a sweet smell wafted out as it spoke.
"elder brother."
Chen Linye was inexplicably dazed again and said nothing.
The lamb gently pushed him and said, "What on earth are you doing? You ignored me again, I'm really angry!"
Chen Linye came back to his senses and hurriedly coaxed her with a guilty conscience, "Don't be angry, I'm thinking about opening a store in town."
The little sheep pouted and washed the clothes slowly, a little unhappy, "Okay, but you have ignored me many times today..."
"Then I'll apologize to Guaiguai. As a punishment, I have to wash my clothes by myself today, okay?" Chen Linye pulled out her hand and wiped it clean.
"Okay!" The lamb did not refuse and happily let him wipe it dry. Who would be willing to do anything if they could avoid doing anything?
So she sat aside and watched the tall man squatting by the river washing clothes.
Not far away was a girl who looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old. Next to her was a large basin of clothes. It looked like she had washed clothes for the entire family.
The lamb noticed that she looked over here from time to time, with some envy in her eyes.
"Hey, I seem to know her!" The lamb finally remembered and said to the system.
System: "How do you know her?"
"In the original owner's memory, she helped the original owner. When the original owner was bullied by those children, she drove those children away." Xiaoyang said.
System: "Then she is pretty good."
Xiao Yang hummed, turned to Chen Linye and said, "I'll be back in a minute."
After saying that, without waiting for his answer, she ran towards the girl.
The girl Yu Guangzhong saw her running towards her, but did not dare to look up and continued washing clothes in silence.
"Here, have some candy!" The lamb squatted beside her, took out a handful of candy from his pocket and handed it to her.
The girl looked at her awkwardly, then looked at Chen Linye not far away, and then said, "Thank you, I don't want to eat..."
The lamb didn't take his hand back, and pouted, "Eat it. I remember you. You helped me."
The girl then hesitantly wiped her hands on her clothes repeatedly, carefully took one and held it tightly in her hand, "Thank you."
The little sheep stuffed all the candies in his hand into her hand and said, "All for you. I have more."
"No, no, it's too much. I, I can't have so much..."
The girl seemed a little flustered, and looked a little helpless holding a hand full of candy.
The little sheep liked her very much. He tilted his head and asked her, "What's your name? My name is Li Xiaoyang."
"My name is Chen Pandi." The girl was not very old after all. After filling her pockets with candies, joy was revealed in her eyes.
Hearing the name, the lamb frowned, "How old are you?"
"I'm 16."
"Then you are younger than me, you should call me sister."
Chen Pandi pursed her lips and smiled shyly, "Sister."
The lamb happily agreed. She made a new friend!
After the lamb finished eating the candy in his mouth, he took out another candy of a different flavor from his pocket and put it in his mouth, mumbling, "Eat it, it's very sweet!"
Chen Pandi said while washing clothes, "I'll go back and eat with my brothers and sisters!"
She wiped her sweat, turned to look at Chen Linye, and asked Xiaoyang: "Is he your brother now?"
The lamb nodded and said, I guess so.
"That's great. Your brother is so good to you. I also want to have a brother..." Chen Pandi showed a look of envy.
Xiao Yang didn't know what to say. He felt that she must not be very happy at home, so he could only comfort her: "In fact, he is sometimes very mean to me."
Chen Pandi smiled and said like an adult, "Sometimes I'm mean to you, but it's probably for your own good."
Ever since the brother and sister came to the river, she couldn't help looking at them. It was obvious that the brother doted on his sister more when they got along. He didn't even let her wash her clothes. She probably wasn't that fierce to him normally.
She still remembered that Li Xiaoyang was once called a fool, bullied by other children, and depended on her mother for survival.
Now that she had Chen Linye, not only her life had improved, but no one in the village dared to bully her anymore, and even the children avoided her when they saw her.
Of course she was envious, but she knew that she was not destined to have such a fate.
The two chatted about some random things and somehow ended up talking about studying.
"You can also count?" The lamb was a little surprised.
Chen Pandi showed some confidence at this time, "I am very good at math. I was in the top three in the class at that time! My parents sent me to school at first, but after I gave birth to several younger sisters, I dropped out of school and started working on the farm."
"You are so great, why don't you try to find a job outside?" asked the lamb. With a little education, he could find a job outside that would not just be physical work.
Chen Pandi lowered her eyebrows and said, "There are so many fields and so much farm work at home. How can I finish it if I'm not at home? Besides, I don't have the ability to find a job outside."
The lamb didn’t know what to say. She seemed to accept her fate, but not quite. She was bound by her family and life. She convinced herself not to fly away, but in her heart she was yearning for it.
Conflicting emotions are the source of her pain.
After Chen Linye finished washing the clothes, he asked her to go back, and he hurriedly said goodbye to Chen Pandi.
Chen Pandi looked at the backs of the two people leaving, then touched the bulging candies in her pocket. After a while, she pursed her lips into a faint smile.
The little sheep peeled a candy and stuffed it into Chen Linye's mouth, "Is it sweet?"
"Sweet." Chen Linye nodded, "Do you know her?"
"She used to help me chase away kids who bullied me."
"Really? You're a good kid." Chen Linye felt distressed when he saw her talking nonchalantly about how others bullied her, but he couldn't free his hands to touch her head.
"Yes, I am friends with her now, and she even calls me sister!"
"You've become my elder sister?" Chen Linye laughed at her.
"What's wrong? You're so annoying!" The lamb glared at him and ran to the front.
-
In two or three days, we will have to start weeding. These days are the only days of leisure. The lamb stays at home every day, doing housework with a few small animals, going out to play with Chen Pandi, or going to the town to play with Chen Linye.
It just so happened that during these few days, Chen Linye would go to the town every day to discuss the issue of opening a store, but he would come back every night to accompany Xiaoyang and would not let her sleep alone.
After running back and forth like this, Chen Linye is visibly tired these days.
