Chapter 190: Chapter 190: A Bloodshed Caused by a Stick of Sticky Rice Cake

Yun Xiaoxiao asked in confusion, "Why was he beaten?"

Children can’t be beaten without reason, right?

"It seems he was beaten because of the sticky rice cake Da Bao gave him."

What?

Sticky rice cake?

Yun Xiaoxiao turned to Da Bao, who finally began to explain slowly, "Yesterday at noon I went to call Grandpa over for lunch, and I ran into Da Zhu on the road. He was looking for worms to feed the chickens, so I gave him a stick of sticky rice cake."

Da Bao had not expected that because of the sticky rice cake he gave, Da Zhu was beaten.

And now he even has a fever.

"Tell me in detail....."

The little friend immediately gave a more detailed account.

It turned out that Da Zhu didn’t want to eat the sticky rice cake by himself and planned to take it home to share with his younger sister Xiao Hua. But when Da Zhu’s stepmother saw it, she thought he was hoarding food again, so she not only beat Da Zhu, but also didn’t let him eat lunch.

"Let’s go have a look." Yun Xiaoxiao frowned slightly. Was Da Zhu’s father a pushover?

Just believing whatever Da Zhu’s stepmother said?

Or thinking that letting his son suffer would bring prosperity to the family?

Wasn’t this just inflating someone else’s arrogance?

"Auntie, Da Zhu’s stepmother is kind of fierce." This little friend, whom Da Bao often gave food to and who frequently came to play with Da Bao, had also occasionally received a candy or biscuit from Yun Xiaoxiao. He was worried that Yun Xiaoxiao might get hurt.

"I’m not afraid."

Yun Xiaoxiao, along with Da Bao, Xiao Bao, and the little informant, went to Da Zhu’s house together.

The distance was not very far.

"Is anyone home?"

"Who is it?" came an impatient voice.

The little informant, Gou Dan, thought of something, "Auntie, Da Zhu’s stepmother is Wang Laowu’s cousin."

What?

"I forgot before."

Now they indeed had a conflict.

"Educated Youth Yun, why are you here?" Da Zhu’s stepmother looked at Yun Xiaoxiao with displeasure. She was indeed well nurtured by Zhao Laosan. What did she come to her house for?

"That stick of sticky rice cake belonged to Da Zhu. It was given to him by my Da Bao, so it’s his."

What?

At this time, some onlookers gathered around as well.

"Da Zhu, Da Zhu....." Da Bao slipped in to look for Da Zhu, but only saw Xiao Hua.

"Where’s your brother?"

"On the bed. Mom, won’t let brother go to the doctor, says it costs money." Xiao Hua was about the same age as Da Bao but looked a year or two younger.

Da Bao quickly slipped into the room to check on Da Zhu.

Outside, Yun Xiaoxiao’s gaze fell on Da Zhu’s stepmother.

"I thought Da Zhu’s stepmother must be really beautiful, to charm Da Zhu’s father into ignoring his son’s life or death. Now that I see you, it’s clear I thought too much. Dark skin, high forehead, you’ve really got the look of someone who brings harm to others. And to think that you have become the treasure in Da Zhu’s father’s arms, today has certainly been an eye-opener for me," she said without stopping for breath.

Xiao Bao looked on, his face beaming with pride.

Gou Dan’s eyes widened in amazement.

"You, a little wench, come to my house to insult us? I’ m going to fight you," Da Zhu’s stepmother retorted.

Yun Xiaoxiao glanced at her, "Come on....."

"Ahhh..."

Da Zhu’s stepmother really charged towards Yun Xiaoxiao.

"Xiao Bao, Gou Dan, step aside. Let me show you how to deal with people like her, no need to be gentle."

As the other woman rushed over, Yun Xiaoxiao slapped her.

"Don’t you know that a child who kills won’t be thrown in prison? What if I let Da Zhu stab you while you’re sleeping soundly—what would you do?" Yun Xiaoxiao bent down and whispered menacingly.

Da Zhu’s stepmother gasped sharply.

Since marrying into this family, she had been very displeased with her stepchildren, especially after she had a son of her own, finding them even more annoying.
