Chapter 118: The spoiled Jin wants to marry a husband (29)

She looked at Little Twelve's uneasy eyes and said seriously, "Little Twelve is awesome. He caught such a big fish. My sister can't catch it!"

When Little Twelve heard this, his eyes opened wide and tears were about to fall.

She lowered her head again in embarrassment, the blush on her face deepened, and she said in a small voice: "Really? But my sister is better than me!"

Bai Nian chuckled: "When Little Twelve grows up to be her age, he will be as powerful as her!"

Xiao Twelve couldn't help but let his tears fall.

Her sister obviously didn't scold her, but she felt like crying.

Tears mixed with mud and water left a clear mark on his face, which was very funny.

Bai Nian hugged her and carried her ashore, stuffing a bag of hibiscus cake in her hand. Little Twelve's eyes flashed with surprise.

"Be good and don't cry. I'll catch you some fish."

She shrugged her nose and nodded, "I...I'll catch fish for my sister too!"

Bai Nian turned around and continued to catch fish with the net bag. In the deeper water, she could feel the fish running around in panic.

Use a net bag to net in the water, and the fish will...

ran away!

Bai Nian watched it flick its tail and swim further away, she pursed her lips a little unhappy.

At this moment, a sound of water breaking was heard. Bai Nian looked up and saw a harpoon stuck in the fish. The fish was struggling on the harpoon, and water splashed all over Bai Nian's face.

Bai Nian looked in the direction of the harpoon and found that it was Yu Xiao standing by the lake. He was holding the other end of the harpoon in his hand with clean and neat movements.

"Brother Yu Xiao!" Bai Nian shouted in surprise, threw down the net bag and threw himself into Yu Xiao's arms.

Yu Xiao caught Bai Nian steadily with one hand and raised the other hand high, fearing that the harpoon would hurt Bai Nian.

She raised her head and looked at the harpoon in Yu Xiao's hand. The fat fish was struggling on the harpoon, and her mood instantly became happy.

Yu Xiao put Bai Nian on the shore, put down the net bag, took the fish off the harpoon, picked up some grass and directly strung the fish in the net bag, and handed it to Bai Nian.

Bai Nian turned around and handed it to Little Twelve behind him, "Brother and sister will treat you to fish!"

Little Twelve looked at Yu Xiao, then at Bai Nian, and carefully held the skewered fish. A bright smile blossomed on his little face, and his voice was full of childish innocence: "Thank you, Brother Yu, thank you, Sister Bai!"

"Twelve, you stupid girl, I asked you to do some work but you just slunk away from me!"

A sudden sharp sound broke the quiet evening. Xiao Twelve's smile instantly froze on her face. Her body trembled slightly, and she looked very scared.

Bai Nian turned around and saw a middle-aged woman standing not far away with an angry expression on her face.

She strode over, her voice full of displeasure and anger, "You've been playing outside all day, look at you covered in mud, what a mess you've made!"

Little Twelve lowered his head, not daring to look into his mother's eyes.

"Your sisters all know how to help at home, but you just want to run away all day long!" Her words became more and more sharp. "How can you get married in the future like this? Who would want a girl like you! I'm counting on you to make the bride price!"

Bai Nian watched this scene and felt a surge of anger in his heart. Just as he was about to step forward to help Xiao Twelve, he was gently pulled back by Yu Xiao.

"If we intervene, Little Twelve might be beaten even more severely when he returns home." Yu Xiao said in a low voice, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

"Mom, I..." Xiao Twelve's voice trembled. She wanted to explain, but her words were interrupted by the woman.

"How dare you talk back?!" the woman's voice became louder and louder.

Little Twelve lowered her head, not daring to speak any more, her little hands tightly grasping the fish that Bai Nian handed to her.

Only then did the middle-aged woman see clearly the fish in her hand and reached out to grab it.

"You are still quite useful. You know how to catch fish for your brother! You can take the big fish to sell at the market tomorrow, and use the small fish to make soup for Jinbao!"

Xiao Twelve lowered his head, tears welling up in his eyes, and finally the tears fell.

"Let's go, there's still work waiting for you at home!" The woman's voice was cold. She pulled her hard, and Little Twelve was forced to follow the woman away. She looked back at Bai Nian and Yu Xiao from time to time, and whispered goodbye to Bai Nian.

The two stood quietly by the lake, watching Xiao Twelve and the woman walking away.

It was almost dark when the village chief finally divided the fish.

This time, the village set up more than a dozen nets, and each household got more than 50 kilograms of fish, which is considered a big harvest.

Before it got dark, Yu's mother picked up a small bucket, filled it with a grass carp weighing 3 or 4 kilograms and a few small crucian carps, and went back to prepare dinner.

Bai Nian wanted to get the remaining fish, but was stopped by Yu Xiao in a deep voice.

He quickly put the fish into a sack and prepared to carry it away.

He tied the mouth of the bag and made a firm knot. Then he waved his arm and threw it onto his back without changing his expression, as if he was just carrying some light cotton.

It was already dark at this time, and only the rough outline of Yu Xiao's tall figure could be seen.

Even so, Bai Nian's eyes were always on the man.

The burning gaze made it difficult for Yu Xiao to ignore it, and his body tensed up instantly.

"Nian Nian?"

When Bai Nian heard Yu Xiao's puzzled voice, he realized that he had been staring at the man for a long time.

She suddenly woke up from her dream, feeling a little embarrassed, and looked away as if avoiding it.

"Why did you come to see me today?" She tried to change the subject.

Yu Xiao did not expose her, and continued with her words: "Last night, Shinian Village was attacked by bandits, and most of the villagers were killed. The county magistrate led people to capture them. I was afraid that there would be some fish that slipped through the net."

bandit?

Or is it Shi Nian Village?

Bai Nian blinked, "So Li Feng was also arrested?"

After saying that, she pinched Yu Xiao's hand hanging by her side. His rough fingers stroked her skin, making her heart itchy.

Yu Xiao grabbed her hands and replied in a low voice, "Yes, they have committed many evil deeds. Each of them has killed a person. I guess they will all be beheaded."

Feeling the man's hot body temperature continuously transmitted from his wrist, Bai Nian listened to Yu Xiao's words somewhat absent-mindedly.

Only then did she realize that the current situation in Shi Nian Village was all because of Jia Yifan.

The last time Jia Yifan returned to the village, it was a huge scene. Everyone in the village saw him bringing back several carts of stuff.

The gossiper spread the news from one person to ten and from ten to a hundred, and there was also a relative of Li Feng in their village, Aunt Li.

Now everyone knows that he has made a fortune.

Li Feng had been holding a grudge since he escaped last time, so he immediately ran to the Black Bear Village to ask for help from the boss.

Since Jia Yifan has been caught, doesn’t that mean we still have his sister?

At the very least, there are still so many valuable things in Shinian Village.
