Chapter 201
201 Street Girl
After lunch, there were two hours of rest.
Wang Dalang originally wanted to bring his siblings to the courtyard to see the freshly planted flowers.
In the end, no one was very interested. Even Little Ah Yu said, “Big Brother, I don’t want to look at flowers now. I’ve seen too much!”
There were wild flowers everywhere at home now. They were of all colors and styles. Little Ah Yu dealt with these flowers every day and was a little tired of looking at them.
Wang Sanlang wanted to go out and play, so he threw a hint at Wang Wulang with his eyes.
Wang Wulang said, “Big Brother, let’s go shopping on the streets. It’s rare for you to come to town. I’ll buy you food!”
They had just received their monthly allowance. Other than Wang Liulang and Wang Qilang, who had already spent all their money on food, the others still had some left.
Wang Wulang did not want to buy anything for the time being and still kept his.
Wang Liulang thought of his empty bag and whispered, “Don’t we have pastries at home? Don’t spend money wastefully.”
Wang Qilang looked at Little Ah Yu. “Little Sister Ah Yu, go and ask Fourth Aunt for the pastries. Let’s bring the pastries out. Otherwise, Grandma will be unhappy if she finds out that we’re spending money outside.”
“If you want to eat, go get it yourself. Don’t instigate your sister.” Wang Dalang frowned and looked at Wang Qilang. “Don’t be so gluttonous for a day, lest you suffer a loss. Don’t always think of tricking your sister when I’m not here. How can you be such an elder brother?”
Wang Qilang shrank his neck in guilt. “But only Little Sister Ah Yu can get the food. She won’t be scolded…”
Compared to Wang Dalang’s seriousness, Wang Erlang was all smiles. “Big Brother is right. If you want to eat, fight for it yourself. Otherwise, Grandma will think that you’re a glutton.”
Wang Qilang was originally a little aggrieved. In their family, only his sister would not be scolded.
Even Grandpa was often scolded.
However, when he heard Wang Erlang’s words, Wang Qilang immediately remembered that seriously speaking, Little Sister Ah Yu was actually not their family’s child, but they already treated her as their family.
In any case, the seven brothers had already decided that Ah Yu was their sister. They had long discussed in private that everyone had to protect their sister in the future.
However, the adults’ thoughts were so complicated. What if they realized that Sister Ah Yu had flaws and felt that she was gluttonous and ate too much?
What if they chased their sister out?
At the thought of this, Wang Qilang immediately wilted. He even felt that it was not good to encourage Ah Yu to take the food for them.
Wang Sanlang was a little impatient. Seeing that Wang Liulang and Wang Qilang were still hesitating, he squatted down and carried Little Ah Yu out.
“Take your time and think it through. Let’s go shopping first.”
Wang Dalang and the others hurriedly followed.
“Sanlang, walk slower. Don’t drop Little Sister Ah Yu.”
Little Ah Yu giggled and grabbed Wang Sanlang’s shoulder tightly. “Don’t be afraid, I’ll hold on tight!”
The few of them quickly arrived on the streets. It happened to be a market day, and the three streets were especially lively.
Little Ah Yu was extremely excited, but her brothers were very nervous because they remembered that she had almost gotten lost previously.
Wang Sanlang was tired from carrying her. Little Ah Yu was about to get down and walk when Wang Erlang took her.
Little Ah Yu was carried by Wang Erlang for a short while before Wang Dalang picked her up. Wang Dalang said, “You still have to study in the afternoon. Don’t tire yourself out. Let me do it.”
In any case, he was strong and used to doing work. Even if Little Ah Yu had gained some weight, it did not matter.
Little Ah Yu liked to watch the fun, so everyone wanted to bring her to the sideshow first.
At this moment, someone was putting on a show of spitting fire. The air gradually became hot. The person who spat the fire was half-naked and his body was painted reddish-brown. When he spat out the fire, the heat roasted him until he broke out in sweat.
Little Ah Yu was originally very excited as she watched, clapping her hands from time to time.
However, as she watched, Little Ah Yu was not too happy.
Wang Silang noticed her expression and asked, “Ah Yu, do you not want to watch anymore?”
Little Ah Yu was a little sad. “Is that uncle very hot? He looks a little uncomfortable.”
“I was wondering what it was. This is his ability! Don’t think that he’s so tired. He knows how to earn money. Look, after one performance, they’ll come to collect money.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the fire-spewing performer temporarily stopped.
A girl dressed in dirty clothes beside him, holding a broken clay pot, began to walk towards the crowd.
“Those who are rich can support financially, while those who are poor can support with your spirit. Uncles and aunties, elderly seniors…”
The little girl’s voice was not loud, but everyone around her could hear her. When they saw her pick up the pot, everyone pretended not to see her and turned to leave.
“Forget it, forget it. There’s nothing to see.”
“Aiya, I still have to buy white flour. I almost forgot!”
“You reminded me. My sister is still waiting for me over there-”
Soon, the crowd dispersed. The children of the Wang Family also turned around.
Only occasionally did a few people throw a few copper coins into the pot. The crisp sound indicated that there were especially few copper coins.
Little Ah Yu turned her head and saw the little girl purse her lips, as if she was used to it.
When she carried the pot back, the other man in charge of sorting out the tools took a look and realized that there was not much inside. He slapped the little girl.
The slap was very loud.
“You’re simply useless trash! You can’t even do such a simple thing well!”
The little girl’s face was red and swollen. She quickly lowered her head without any reaction.
Someone at the side could not stand it anymore. “You’re just performing. Why are you hitting a child?”
The man glared at the passerby. “It’s none of your business! If you have the ability, pay up. You only know how to watch for free. Doesn’t it cost me money to raise her? If you’re so capable, come and raise her!”
The man was obviously a martial arts practitioner. The passerby whispered a few words and left in a hurry.
From beginning to end, the little girl did not react at all.
“You’re not allowed to eat today!” The man scolded her angrily. The commotion had scared the crowd away. He was still angry and pinched the little girl’s ear fiercely, as if he wanted to tear it off.
The little girl remained silent.
“Uncle, let go of her! You’re hurting Big Sister!” A girl’s voice sounded angrily.
The man subconsciously looked at the ground, but he did not see any little girls.
He turned his gaze and saw a few boys. On the neck of one of the boys sat a little girl.
With her pink face and white teeth, it was obvious that she was a girl raised by a good family.
The person who spoke was naturally Little Ah Yu.
The children of the Wang Family all felt a headache. They originally thought that they could just bring Ah Yu away. They did not expect her to speak up directly.
Although they were just a group of performers and consisted of only two men and a little girl, look at their ability to breathe fire and their firm muscles.
The few of them were no match for them.
Everyone complained in their hearts.
They were still rookies in martial arts, but what could they do if their sister was too righteous?
The boys did not notice that the moment the man saw Little Ah Yu, a dark glint flashed across his eyes.
He even looked at the fire-spewing man. The two of them had a tacit understanding.
“Little girl, you’ve misunderstood. We were just acting. How was Uncle’s villian act?” The man forced a smile.
Perhaps it was because he had been cultivating for a long time, but when the man smiled, the original ferocious look on his face completely disappeared, making him look especially intimate.
The little girl, who had been silent, suddenly raised her head.
The way she looked at Little Ah Yu was filled with extreme disgust.
The little girl said, “Scram!”
