Chapter 149
I’ll Die in Front of Your Eyes (1)
The villagers were simple and honest people, and everyone was closely related. Just by crossing the road, you could probably bump into a relative. It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that you didn’t need to lock your house at night.
Jiang Xiaoman was the only one in the Jiang family right now, and she did not have a habit of locking the door during the day.
When she heard that voice, the person was already inside and she couldn’t prevent him from entering.
Jiang Xiaoman glanced cautiously at him and loudly said, “What do you want? Grandma will be home soon!”
“Don’t be nervous, don’t be nervous.” Hong Xingguo gave what he felt was a friendly smile, but in reality he looked like the Wolf in “Little Red Riding Hood” who pretended to be Grandma. He was also carrying a bag on his back which looked to be packed to the brim.
To dispel her cautiousness, Hong Xingguo put the bag down and took out a lot of miscellaneous trinkets from it.
“This is a windmill that Granduncle made himself. Here, for you.”
He really made the windmill himself. Jiang Xiaoman believed him with just a glance because the windmill looked crude and ugly. Teacher Yang had also taught them how to make one in the handicraft class.
Cut a piece of paper into four, then put a nail and stick it to a wooden stick.
The one she made was even better than this.
She showed a disgusted look and said, “I’m not playing with it!”
The one Yu Qingshi made and gave to her was very pretty!
Rejected by the little girl, Hong Xingguo’s face twitched a little, but he soon calmed down and took out other things.
“Come, this is the souvenir that Granduncle brought you. It’s really delicious, you know?” What he was holding in his hands was a bunch of wild fruits.
Jiang Xiaoman gave it a glance and showed the same disgusted expression again.
“You can find this everywhere here.”
She had already eaten a lot of them!
Hong Xingguo took a deep breath and stared at her.
“Xiaoman, Granduncle is tired after traveling on the mountain road for a long time, let Granduncle go inside to rest?” Hong Xingguo was still in the yard. It was very wide and open, and passerbys’ could see what was happening inside.
The place was bright and open, not suitable for committing a crime.
Jiang Xiaoman refused. “No. Grandma said that you can’t let strangers enter the house. Go away quickly, or I will call Grandma.”
“Granduncle is not a stranger, we have met before, right?”
Jiang Xiaoman replied, “Yes, I’ve seen you twice. But every time you come, you always come to fight with Grandma.”
“…” Why did this brat have such a good memory?
A long time had passed, how come she still remembered it so clearly?
Hong Xingguo was very angry, but pretended to smile again. He took out a handful of colorful candies and tempted her, “Granduncle hasn’t come to your place often and does not know his way around here. After eating my candy, can you show me the way around? I won’t enter your house, I just want to look for someone.”
This person was very evil.
If she was a regular kid, she would’ve been coaxed long ago and have forgotten anything else!
But it was his misfortune that she wasn’t just any regular kid!
Jiang Xiaoman put her hands on her hips and bluntly said, “I don’t believe you. Do you think I’m still three-years-old?”
She stretched out five fingers, “I am five years old this year!”
“…” Hong Xingguo was furious.
He ran out of patience.
Hong Xingguo laughed coldly and took out a piece of cloth. Then, he covered her nose and mouth without saying anything.
The cloth was drugged.
Jiang Xiaoman’s eyes went wide open, as if she didn’t expect him to still have such a trick. She struggled a few times, but soon there was no more movement.
She had fainted.
Hong Xingguo placed her in a bag without saying a word, and walked away while carrying her on his back.
System: “……”
It had wanted to remind its host not to reason with bad guys, because bad guys do not need a reason to do bad things.
But it didn’t expect Hong Xingguo to be so quick and ruthless, to work so nimbly and cleanly.
He took her away without saying anything else.
Jiang Xiaoman didn’t even get the chance to make any sound.
Many people in the village knew Hong Xingguo, and of the grudge between him and Jiang Xiumei. They knew that their two families did not communicate often, and they were considered to have broken their relationship.
Seeing him come again during New Year’s Eve, they thought he was looking for freebies again and ridiculed him, “Oh, this… Isn’t this that… Who was it again? Did you come here to cause trouble again? Aren’t you a man, have you no shame? Unfortunately people don’t want you, this poor relative anymore. Why don’t you have some shame.”
Hong Xingguo’s eyes were shifty, and he quickened his pace as he walked with a guilty conscience. He tried explaining, “Who is here to cause trouble? I’m here to bring some gifts, but she wouldn’t even let me come in. So cruel!”
The group of people laughed and watched him leave.
