Little One Tears the Villain’s Script
Chapter 45

Moved to Tears (1)

Jiang Xiumei who heard the sound rushed over and saw that the two children were crying. She immediately asked, “What happened? Did you guys get into a fight?”

Jiang Xiaoman sobbed and shook her head.

Jiang Xiumei looked at the mouse that was still squeaking in her hand and immediately snatched it.

“Oh my god. My little ancestor, what are you doing with this thing?” Jiang Xiumei immediately took the mouse away to deal with it.

Once he couldn’t hear the shrieking sounds anymore, Yu Qingshi finally hiccupped and ceased crying.

His eyes and nose were red, and he bewailed crying. He looked back at Jiang Xiaoman and saw that her eyes and nose were red as well, and felt a bit liable

Yu Qingshi struggled a few times and slipped out from Yu Wencheng’s arms.

“Don’t cry.” Yu Qingshi told Jiang Xiaoman in a very low voice.

“Then why were you crying?” Jiang Xiaoman still didn’t understand why he was crying.

Such a shameful thing, of course he could not say it.

He hesitated and said nothing, alternately staring at the sky and the ground, avoiding her sincere gaze. Hearing that she was still sobbing a little, he couldn’t help fiercely saying, “Don’t cry anymore!”

Yu Qingshi was not a well-tempered kid, on the contrary, he had a really bad temper. No one at home could stop him whenever his stubbornness arose.

This little girl was really bad; she smashed his luban lock and scared him with a mouse. He also didn’t want to care about her much, but… he felt a little guilty when he saw her cry.

There’s no other way, children are such a handful.

Since she was younger, he’ll give in this once.

He continued in a low voice. “Don’t cry, I’ll give you candies.”

As soon as she heard it, Jiang Xiaoman immediately snorted and stopped crying. She vigorously asked him, “Really?”

“Really.”

And thus, the two children made up again.

Jiang Xiaoman happily took Yu Qingshi’s little hand. Although he secretly wanted to shake it off, she just pulled him tight.

She was stronger than him.

Jiang Xiaoman promised again. “Uncle Yu, don’t worry, I will take care of this little brother.”

It was really hard to be confident when she guaranteed that while still hiccupping after crying.

Yu Wencheng didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, and corrected her. “Xiaoman, he is a little bit older than you. He’s four years old.”

“Me too.”

“…” Yu Wencheng rubbed her head and looked at his son again, advising him, “Get along well with Xiaoman, okay?”

Yu Qingshi blushed and said, “En.”

The adults went into the mountain in the afternoon, while Jiang Xiumei and the children stayed home. Jiang Xiumei was busy and let Xiaoman play with Yu Qingshi.

Xiaoman had never eaten the kind of candies Yu Qingshi gave her before. The taste was very unusual, and just two of them were already enough to coax her.

After having her fill of meals and drinks, Jiang Xiaoman felt that she was alright again. A great person must be magnanimous, she decided to let it go and forgive Yu Qingshi.

Jiang Xiaoman said. “There’s no need to be afraid of mice. Grandma said that they’re the ones who are afraid of people. They are very timid. If you pass by, they will run away in fright. Have you heard of the idiom, timid like a mouse? It means that a person’s guts are very, very small.”

She used her fingers to show the size of a mung bean, and sighed after making the comparison. “Forget it, you probably don’t understand. Only a smart kid like me can go to school and read letters at such a young age. There’s no way about it, I’m just really smart. The system said that I’m the quick-witted kid in this village. If there’s anything you don’t understand, you can always ask me.”

“…” Yu Qingshi wanted to roll his eyes. He still didn’t want to care about her, but she was so bothersome that he couldn’t bear saying, “I’m already in school!”
