Chapter 72 I'm Cannon Fodder 15
"Big chicken leg, smells delicious!"
Xiao Xiao Wa took a big bite and ate it.
"Meat---meat--spicy..."
Egg is still small and can only eat minced meat. He is learning to talk by following his older sister.
Wang Xiue looked at the two children with a smile, feeling a warm glow in her heart.
If business continues like this, she'll give her child extra chicken legs every day.
The children will no longer have to envy others for eating meat behind their backs.
That day, it was market day again, and people were coming and going.
"This is the lowest price I can offer, little sister. You'll definitely look good in it, I'm not kidding you."
After several days of practice, Wang Xiue has become adept at engaging in several rounds of negotiation with customers.
Niu Genzhu saw Wang Xiue's stall from afar as he pushed his bicycle, and he shamelessly came over.
Yesterday, people from the same village said that Wang Xiue's business was doing very well, so he observed it for a while.
It was indeed very good; several items were sold in just a short time.
This can earn quite a bit of money in a day; it's much better than farming.
Most of this money should belong to him.
If this woman hadn't taken more than two thousand yuan from her family, where would she have gotten the capital to start a business?
Wang Xiue only had eyes for the customers and didn't even see him.
Niu Genzhu pushed the car under the tree and slowly made his way to Dandan and Xiaoxiao.
"Egg, do you miss Daddy?"
He was just about to pick up Niu Dandan, who was eating chicken cake, when Xiao Xiao suddenly blocked his way and shouted at Wang Xiue.
"aunt!"
Wang Xiue, who was negotiating with a customer, turned around and immediately grabbed a clothes pole and smashed it down on Niu Genzhu's head.
"Don't hit me---Don't hit me---Xiue, I know I was wrong, please don't hit me..."
"Get out! Get away from me!"
Wang Xiue slapped him hard a few times and pointed at his nose while cursing him angrily.
"Wang Xiue, don't push your luck. Let me tell you, you have to give me half of the money you earn, or I'll come and bother you every day."
Enraged by the beating, Niu Genzhu blurted out his true feelings.
"You beast, stop dreaming! Get out of here!"
Wang Xiurong was furious. How could there be such a shameless person in this world?
She picked up the clothes pole and swung it at Niu Genzhu again.
People buying the stirrup pants all looked on with gossip in their eyes, watching with great interest.
"Everyone come quick! This woman has taken money from the house..."
Niu Genzhu stood in the middle of the road and began to smear Wang Xiue.
Wang Xiue was so angry she was trembling. Xiao Xiao immediately jumped up and let out a scream that drowned out Niu Genzhu's voice.
"Uncle, please stop gambling."
You've lost twenty or thirty thousand yuan in total, and you've sold your cow and your house.
You sold Brother Da Bao to human traffickers for 800 yuan.
Before the Spring Festival, you sold Sister Hongjuan to Zhang the Cripple in the next village for three thousand yuan.
Now that you've lost everything, you want your money back? We have no money.
Wow! The passerby was shocked.
Niu Genzhu's eyes widened in anger, and he opened his mouth to spew out:
"You little brat, what nonsense are you spouting? When did I gamble?"
"You've said you don't gamble, you've said it eight hundred times, but which one time counts? If you hadn't lost, why would you be coming here asking for money?"
Without blushing or skipping a beat, she questioned him with righteous indignation.
Oh open!
The passerby looked at Niu Genzhu again, his face asking for an explanation.
"I've never gambled, you brat, stop talking nonsense."
Niu Genzhu was furious; he was practically ready to curse the heavens and the earth.
Xiao Xiao didn't care about his explanation; she just kept spouting nonsense.
"Not only do you gamble, but you also secretly touched Widow Chen's hand behind my aunt's back."
You two are still hugging each other and biting each other like you're gnawing on chicken legs! Ugh--how disgusting...."
The young man made a vomiting motion.
Wow! That's so exciting!
Everyone's eyes lit up, and they all stared at Niu Genzhu.
Look how much fun this man has!
Gambling, whoring, and indulging in food, drink, and entertainment—that's the epitome of all vices.
Wang Xiue tried to open her mouth several times, but swallowed it back in the end.
As soon as their own child opens their mouth, they immediately throw a scapegoat at them.
Niu Genzhu was so angry that he lost his mind and was absolutely furious.
"You're talking nonsense, you're talking nonsense, I'll beat you to death, you little brat."
Seeing this, Wang Xiue grabbed a clothes pole and rushed over, beating her mercilessly.
I felt better after the injection.
Not only was Wang Xiu'e comfortable, but Niu Genzhu was comfortable too.
The rat scurried away with its head in its hands.
"Who taught you all this?"
After Niu Genzhu ran away in a sorry state, Wang Xiue stroked his little head and asked with a smile.
"Auntie, do you think I'm slandering Uncle?"
Wang Xiue hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
"I'm slandering him! Because he's always slandered you like this before!"
It's a mix of real and fake, and outsiders simply can't tell the difference.
As soon as he opened his mouth, I knew he was going to slander you again, he would definitely say that you stole money from the house, etc.
We cannot let the enemy speak first, whether they are strong or weak, we cannot let them make the first move.
Because it's easy to spread rumors, but difficult to refute them later.
Since we are currently the weaker party, we need to strike first to gain the upper hand.
After the system auntie gave Xiaoxiao a story-like explanation of historical events, such as the Tumu Crisis, Xiaoxiao was able to understand them better.
Originally, Crown Prince Li Jiancheng had the strongest power in Chang'an, while Li Shimin only had eight hundred men.
However, by gaining the upper hand, he ended up killing Li Jiancheng, whose power far surpassed his own.
After watching the animation, Xiaoxiao understood part of it herself and explained it to Wang Xiue in this way.
Wang Xiue was very surprised when she heard this, and the hand that was touching the little head stopped.
This child is way too precocious!
They're incredibly smart.
If selling Zhang Cuihua, the human trafficker, before made her think the child was exceptionally clever, things are different now.
You can't understand these principles without experiencing hardship in society and in life.
But this child?
This child must have seen her suffer injustice and secretly wipe away her tears, and figured it out all by himself.
She hugged Xiaoxiao tenderly.
I must become strong.
She's not worried about herself now, only about her child.
Is this child really that smart?
As the old saying goes, early wisdom is often followed by hardship.
People shouldn't be too clever, or Heaven won't approve.
"Auntie understands. Don't worry about it anymore. Auntie will stand up for herself."
You little one, just grow up happily with Egg.
Xiao Xiao nodded. She was exhausted after giving such a long explanation.
"Auntie, shall we go to the county town?!"
Xiao Xiao glanced up at the middle-aged couple in the crowd.
The two of them had been keeping an eye on it for several days. Yesterday, just before they were about to close up shop, they even came over to ask about the cost price of the leggings.
It's obvious that their competitors at the market are just jealous.
Wang Xiue was taken aback, but then thought it made sense.
Since I don't have many pairs of pants left, I might as well go to the county town, where there are more wealthy people, and I'm sure I'll sell them there better.
It also allows you to avoid the trouble caused by Niu Genzhu.
After making her decision, Wang Xiue began packing up her things after closing her stall.
In these six days, they have earned nearly a thousand yuan, which is pure profit!
Before, farming for a whole year only yielded eight or nine hundred yuan.
Xiao Xiao and Dan Dan lay side by side on the headboard, watching Wang Xiu'e pack her luggage.
Just then, the system suddenly issued a red alert.
Xiao Xiao immediately became alert. Before she could even warn Wang Xiurong, she heard a loud bang as the door was kicked open.
Three adults rushed in, and amidst Wang Xiue's terrified screams, she was kicked to the ground.
The other two adults picked up Niu Xiaoxiao and Niu Dandan, one in each arm, and ran outside.
"Auntie, the stun gun, give me the stun gun--"
Xiao Xiao got anxious and immediately called out in her mind.
