Chapter 220: Reluctant to go home

"My mother doesn't know."

Xiao Si shook her head. She heard her stepfather say this when he was drunk. He also said that he had contacted Ya Zi and would send her there tomorrow.

She was so frightened that she ran away that night without even taking her clothes.

While running alone, she received the kindness of her kind-hearted uncles and aunts, and had a bite to eat so that she would not starve to death on the way.

She ran forward without daring to look back.

She relied on her own legs and ran for nearly half a month before staying in this village.

She didn't know how far this village was from hers. She only remembered that she had been running for a long time. When she stopped, her tattered shoes were completely broken, her feet were covered with blood blisters, and it hurt even if she took a step.

"But my mother will not refuse my stepfather's request."

Xiao Si added in a low voice.

She understood this, so after hearing what her stepfather said, she ran away without looking back.

"My mother said that husbands are a woman's heaven, and we women must obey what they say."

"When my stepfather would occasionally hit me when he was in a bad mood and drunk, my mother would never stop him. She would let me just endure it and let him go."

"How in the world could there be such a confused mother?"

He Zhixin cursed in a low voice.

After all, she was born in her tenth month of pregnancy, and she was a blood relative, but because of a bastard man, he allowed his daughter to endure it.

How old is she?

She is still a child!!

When an adult is in a bad mood and is drunk, he hits a child to vent his anger. The attack is neither gentle nor serious. If something bad happens, it will be too late to regret it.

"Xiao Si, my aunt already knows about your affairs."

"Auntie, I just want to ask you, do you want to go home?"

"If you want to go home, aunt will contact your parents. If you don't want to go home, you can stay here safely."

He Zhixin took a deep breath, looked up at Xiao Si, and said with gentle eyes.

After all, he was a child. He was afraid of running away at the time. Now that he has been away from home for too long, what if he misses home and runs back by himself?

Originally, you shouldn't meddle in other people's affairs.

But this child is thin, small, and very timid. If her voice is even slightly louder, her body can't help but tremble.

He Zhixin is also a mother, so she is naturally extremely patient with her children.

Even if she is someone else's child and knows that the other person has experienced something bad, she can't help but worry about her.

He Zhixin wanted to help her within her ability.

If Xiaosi wants to go home, he can help her beat her parents. After all, after returning, they will not dare to sell their children to such a dirty place.

"I...I don't want to go home!!"

When Xiao Si heard that he was going to send her home, he immediately expressed his excitement.

She doesn’t want to go home!!

"Okay, I'm not going home."

From the look on Xiaosi's face, one could tell that she was extremely resistant to going home.

He Zhixin didn't persuade her and just agreed.

"Then you stay at your aunt's house. Taotao's brothers all need to go to school and there is little time to play with Taotao. You can live with Taotao for the next few days."

There were also free yards, but He Zhixin felt that this timid child might be very scared if he lived alone in a strange place.

Thinking of Xiao Si, who was holding Su Taotao's hand when she came in and hiding half of her body behind Su Taotao. She thought that she was very dependent on Taotao, so let her live with Taotao.

"Really?"

Xiao Si, who was still a little nervous and frightened at first, heard He Zhixin's words and instantly looked up at He Zhixin excitedly.

She can live with Taotao.

"real."

He Zhixin gently stroked Xiaosi's head.

"Taotao, please take care of my sister. Can you two live together?"

He Zhixin looked at Su Taotao and asked with a smile.

"Okay, Taotao will live with my sister."

Su Taotao had no objection, stepped forward, took Xiaosi's hand, and said with a bright smile.

She and her sister are both girls, let alone living together, even sleeping in the same bed is fine.

Besides, she brought the person back and she can take care of him.

"I am a sister, I can take good care of my sister."

Xiao Si blushed and said softly.

How can a younger sister take care of her older sister?

"Then let Xiaosi take care of Taotao."

He Zhixin smiled slightly and gently stroked Xiaosi's head.

Xiao Si lowered his head shyly and said nothing. Seeing that the matter was settled, Su Taotao and Xiao Si held hands and left together.

"Mom, let someone check it out."

After He Zhixin watched the figures of the big one and the small one leave happily, she took back the smile on her face and gave orders to Aunt Qian beside her.

"Let's see if what Xiaosi said is true or not. By the way, let's see how Xiaosi's parents reacted after she got lost."

He Zhixin only believed half of what Xiaosi said. The remaining half had to wait until she found out that what Xiaosi said was true before she could trust Xiaosi with confidence.

After all, Xiaosi is not Su Taotao's senior brother or sister and can be trusted.

No matter how pitiful a child of unknown origin is, He Zhixin still needs to stay vigilant to ensure that Xiao Si can be trusted.

"Yes, ma'am."

Aunt Qian nodded, turned around and went out to arrange for people to investigate the village that Xiao Si just mentioned.

"Who is this?"

Su Silin went out to play wildly all afternoon. When he came back, he heard people in his yard saying that Su Taotao came to see him not long after he went out.

Su Silin, who was only thinking about having fun, was silent for a while. Later, he remembered that when he was at home, he and Taotao had agreed to play together.

As a result, when I came to the countryside and had too many playmates, I accidentally forgot about this matter!!

Thinking that he had forgotten such an important thing, Su Silin immediately came to Su Taotao and wanted to apologize to Su Taotao.

Either he forgot about it on purpose, or there were too many fun things to do, and his playmates kept urging him, so he accidentally forgot about it.

However, when he went to find Su Taotao, he found that Su Taotao had not returned yet.

He waited in Su Taotao's yard for a while, and finally heard movement at the door. As soon as he came out, he saw Su Taotao walking in with a strange person in hand.

The other party's clothes were in tatters, with several patches on them, and the shoes on his feet had a hole in them. His exposed toes were slightly curled up, looking nervous and uneasy.

Su Silin took a step forward and tilted his head to look at Xiaosi curiously.

Is this someone from the village?

I know most of the children in the village, but it seems I have never seen this one before.

"This is my new sister, her name is Xiaosi, one, two, three, four."

When Su Taotao saw Su Silin here, she introduced them to each other.

"Sister Xiaosi, this is my second brother."
