Chapter 19: You Will Regret It
Chapter 19: You Will Regret It
Second Aunt Ning had learned her lesson. She did not slap it with her hands and only kicked it with her feet, avoiding her hand pain. "Is there anyone? Don't pretend that there's no one. I can see smoke coming out of the chimney. Open the door for me!"
Xiaoxiao finished the bowl in a few bites. The others followed suit and stuffed themselves with all the dinner that they could not bear to eat too quickly just now. Ning Erlang even sighed. "What a pity. I want to chew slowly."
The family tacitly cleaned the dining table without leaving any traces of delicious food. Even the used bowls and chopsticks were soaked in the pot. But even so, everyone still found it difficult to look at the two pieces of meat and two bowls of honey.
People thought Second Aunt Ning was about to kick down the door as the sound of the door opening got louder and louder. Xiaoxiao pushed everyone out. "You guys go first. I'll hide." Once everyone left, she waved her small hand and put the meat and honey into the space. She opened the window, opened the door, and waved to dissipate the sweet smell.
Xiaoxiao heard Second Aunt Ning shout in the courtyard unhappily, "Why did you take so long to come? The little girl went into the mountains today and found something good, right? Quickly bring it over. I'll bring it home for you to show filial piety to parents." Xiaoxiao clicked her tongue and thought something. She turned around and walked towards the basket she had placed in the corner.
Second Aunt Ning was certain that the Ning family had something good and did not care that this was someone else's house. She ran straight to the kitchen. When she entered, she saw Xiaoxiao suspiciously hiding the basket in her arms behind her.
"Second Aunt?" Xiaoxiao panicked and tried to use her body to block the basket behind her. "Why are you here?"
Second Aunt Ning put her hands on her hips proudly. "Why? Don't you welcome me? What's behind you?" As she spoke, she went forward to pull Xiaoxiao. Xiaoxiao pushed her a few times, but she was pulled away as if she couldn't win against Second Aunt Ning's strength. Hence, she used the force to retreat to the door and pulled Second Brother and the rest who were about to go forward.
Ning Erlang was filled with regret. He shouldn't have listened to his sister and let her stay alone. If he was here, he wouldn't have been caught red-handed just after putting the good stuff in the basket.
There was so much meat and honey. He hadn't even eaten, and it was already gone.
Their reactions gave Second Aunt Ning even more confidence. There must be something good in the basket! She was used to being impolite. She rolled up her sleeves and was about to open them.
Xiaoxiao exclaimed, "Second Aunt, don't! Please don't! That's not food. You have to believe me. You'll regret it if you open it!"
The more she said this, the more Second Aunt Ning did not want to hear it. This little girl still wanted to fool her? She had experienced more than this girl. This little girl was still too inexperienced to fight with her!
As soon as she placed her greedy hands on the side of the basket, Xiaoxiao pushed Ning Erlang and ran out.
Ning Erlang was a step slower. He happened to see a few bees buzzing out of the basket. There were not many, but more than ten of them. He was stunned but strongly desired to live and did not forget to run with his sister.
Ning Dalang also realized something. He ran out the door and asked his sister in a low voice, "What's in the basket?"
Without waiting for Ning Erlang, who was panting, to speak, Xiaoxiao said mysteriously, "Pretending to be retribution for Second Aunt."
Then, Second Aunt Ning screamed louder and louder, "Help! Help! Ah! There are bees!!"
If his mom wasn't here, Ning Erlang wanted to clap. However, Xiaoxiao still had time to tell her mom, "Mom, don't worry. I've already closed the door and windows of dad's room. Bees can't enter."
