Daniu and a group of children deliberately spread rumors to isolate the Huzi brothers.
Huzi tried to reason with them at first and tried his best to explain to them that Xiao Niannian didn't know any magic at all.
But they didn't listen to his explanation at all and didn't allow him to get close.
Huzi was lying when he said he wasn't sad. After all, he was his childhood friend.
But in order not to worry his parents, he originally wanted to hide the matter, but Tuanzi couldn't help but tell it.
Li Rulan took out a handkerchief to wipe away Huzi's tears, and said distressedly: "No wonder you looked so unhappy yesterday and you even missed half a bowl of porridge for dinner."
Shen Zhengwen frowned and thought. Although under Cheng Sheng's influence, no adults gossiped about his family, but he did not expect that these rumors would spread among the children.
Children are naive and don't think so much. They must be influenced by adults.
That day, many villagers saw the scene of thousands of bees besieging Mrs. Shen and the others. People were in awe of the unknown power, and it was normal to feel scared.
In this situation, how could he take Huzi to seek justice?
"Huzi, we don't need to care about what they say, as long as we have a clear conscience." Shen Zhengwen comforted Huzi by touching his head.
"A truly strong person doesn't care what others say or do. Let's work together to become stronger, shall we?"
"Well, okay!" Huzi nodded vigorously and said, "I will definitely become stronger!"
"Quick! You all come in quickly!"
There was a sound outside the courtyard. Huzi turned around and saw Daniu, Mumu and other friends being led into their yard by their mother.
Huzi felt happy and was about to call them, but after thinking about it he held back.
Huh, he won't forgive them easily for what they did to him yesterday.
Daniel and Mu Mu were dejected, looking like they had made a mistake.
Da Niu's mother, Mrs. Guo, led Da Niu to Shen Zhengwen and Li Rulan, and said apologetically: "Shen Er, Ru Lan, are you all at home? That's good, I'll let my child say to Hu Zi in front of you.
Sorry."
Guo said, pushing Daniel forward.
"Quickly, apologize to Huzi. What nonsense did you say yesterday? You even hit Huzi with a stone. If you hit Huzi out, let's see how I deal with you!"
Daniel looked at Huzi sheepishly and said: "Huzi, I'm sorry, I saw a lot of bees stinging people in your house that day. I was really scared. I was afraid that I would be stung by bees too, so I did that to you."
.”
"But my mother told me that your sister is a lucky star and can only teach bad people. As long as I don't do bad things, I won't be stung. I was wrong. I shouldn't have treated you like that, and I shouldn't have said that to your sister."
As Daniel said, he stepped forward and took Huzi's sleeve and said sincerely: "I'm sorry Huzi, can you forgive me? Can we still be good friends in the future?"
"Me too, Huzi, can you also forgive me? I will definitely treat you well in the future, and I will never believe other people's nonsense again."
"And I and I, I shouldn't have driven you away yesterday. I'm sorry Huzi, you must forgive me. I will be your little follower from now on."
...
The children swarmed around Huzi to apologize and ask for forgiveness.
Seeing everyone apologizing so sincerely, Huzi raised his head and said with a proud face: "Then I will forgive you this time, and I won't play with you next time."
"That's right!" Mrs. Guo sighed as she saw the children playing lively together again, "We are fellow villagers, and the children should naturally be united and friendly. I don't know where my little bastard heard about those bastards.
He actually did this to Hu Zi. If I hadn’t heard Sister Zhou tell me, I wouldn’t have known it.”
Sister-in-law Zhou smiled and shook her head, "I also listened to what my family said. The children's matters are not big or small, but we can't let Huzi suffer in vain."
"You guys are really thoughtful. My Huzi was still crying about this just now." Li Rulan said happily, "Huzi is a child who values feelings and accepts death in everything. It's good that they have reconciled now."
Mrs. Guo nodded and said: "The children's matters are their own matters. We are all of the same mind, so naturally the children cannot have any discord."
"That's right," said a woman next to her, "now that Rulan's family has a little lucky star, life is much better than ours. From now on, we have to rely on Huzi to take care of our brothers."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
"It's natural." Li Rulan smiled and said nonchalantly, "When my family ran out of food, it was only through your help that we could survive. If my family's life becomes better, I will definitely repay everyone."
"No, no, no." Sister-in-law Zhou waved her hand, "Your Shen Er also helped us a lot in the past, not to mention you gave us so many eggs a few days ago. This reward is already very generous."
"Yes, yes, no need." Several other women also responded.
Shen Zhengwen walked out of the back room, carrying several long benches on his arms.
"Come on, everyone, come and sit down for a while. This weather is perfect for basking in the sun in the yard."
He placed the benches in the yard and everyone sat down one after another.
Aunt Zhou chose a seat closest to little Niannian and sat down, then took out a pair of exquisite tiger-head shoes from her arms and placed them in little Niannian's cradle.
"You girl, I liked you very much the first time I saw you. I didn't expect you to be a little lucky star. The gift my aunt brought you last time was a bit shabby. This time, my aunt made you a pair of beautiful shoes with her own hands.
Do you like it?"
Little Niannian reached out and picked up a tiger-head shoe and played with it, touching it curiously.
This tiger head shoe is bright red, and several different colors of silk threads are used for the tiger head. There is no thread left at all. It looks like a lot of thought has been put into it.
Li Rulan saw that Xiao Niannian liked the tiger head shoes very much, so she did not refuse and turned to thank Zhou.
"Thank you so much, Sister-in-law Zhou. The silk thread and fabric of these tiger-head shoes are of the highest quality, especially the tiger head. The embroidery is so beautiful. I must have put a lot of thought into it. Sister-in-law Zhou is really thoughtful."
Mrs. Zhou waved her hand and said with a smile: "These shoes cost only a few dollars, and they are not as valuable as the eggs your Erlang gave you last time. I have nothing to repay, I just have some embroidery skills, so I thought of giving them to your Xiaoliu."
Make a pair of tiger-head shoes.”
"Oh, Sister-in-law Zhou, look at the tiger head shoes you made." Mrs. Guo pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "They are so beautiful, but they are inferior to the things we gave you."
Mrs. Guo smiled and took out a small bellyband embroidered with a little tiger from her arms and put it next to Xiao Niannian. "Although my craftsmanship is not as good as Mrs. Zhou's, I still make it with my heart. Little Lucky Star, don't dislike it."
"And me. When my husband went to the city two days ago, I dragged him back with a new rattle and gave it to little Lucky Star to play with."
A few more people handed over small clothes and some small toys they had made. Little Niannian held a rattle and tiger-head shoes in her hands, and the cradle was almost filled with these enthusiastic aunts. This chapter has been completed!
