Hearing that, Feng Wu took the two kids’ hands and headed for the woods.
According to Little Phoenix, in order to let Feng Wu pretend that she found the bundle by accident, it didn’t hide the bundle very well.
When Feng Wu and the kids walked into the woods, the two men were already gone.
Feng Wu ignored them and headed for her destination.
There were quite a few fruit trees in the woods, and there was even a persimmon tree covered with ripe persimmons.
“Persimmons!”
Sanya was the first to notice it, and she was so excited that she tried to climb up the tree.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLi noticed it as well. She immediately took off her outer robe and spread it out on the ground to hold the persimmons.
They were so close to the edge of the woods that everyone outside could hear them.
Persimmons?!
Hearing the noise, the wife of the third son tossed the wok to her sister-in-law and rushed in.
Seeing that Li had taken off her outer robe, the third daughter-in -law took off hers as well. They had been wearing all the clothes they had, so taking off a layer didn’t really matter.
As she picked, the third daughter-in-law shouted at her three sons, “Jinzhu, Yinzhu, and Tongzhu! Do you want some nice persimmons or not? Give me a hand!”
Unfortunately, most of the persimmons had been destroyed by the wind and rain, and only a few were still edible.
While they were picking the persimmons, Feng Wu said, “I’ll go have a look and see if I can catch a pheasant or a hare.”
Li smiled bitterly. “You’re making things up again. Don’t go too far.”
Feng Wu nodded. “I’ll walk around and get some firewood.”
Only then did Li agree.
As the third daughter-in-law fought over the persimmons with Li, she teased the latter. “Sister-in-law, your niece is so funny. Why did she have to look for a rabbit instead of picking all the persimmons? Haha, what kind of rabbit can she possibly find? Even if she can find it, will she be able to catch it?”
Li was a little displeased, for she really thought of Feng Wu as her niece now.
The third daughter-in-law was elated to see that Li was upset, and she said deliberately, “Sister-in-law, she’s such a poor girl. She’s brought so much bad luck to you all.”
Li threw a dirty look at her sister-in-law. “That’s bullshit!”
Her sister-in-law said, “I’m not. Look at her ragged clothes. She looks like a beggar. She can’t have a good life. I’m telling you…” Just then, they heard a surprised cry a short distance away.
It was Feng Wu!
“What’s going on?! What’s going on?!”
Thinking that Feng Wu had been bitten by a snake, Li slid down the tree and tripped.
It hurt…
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLi was almost in tears, but the girl’s safety was at stake and she couldn’t care less about the pain.
She shouted, “Mingjiang! Mingjiang! Come here!”
She ran toward Feng Wu as she shouted, so fast that her shoes flew off.
“Mom! Mom!”
Her two children followed her in a hurry.
However, the third daughter-in-law panicked a little… Was there a snake over there? Well, she wouldn’t go, then. That was so scary…
Now that Li was gone, all the persimmons were hers!
Hence, she went back to picking the persimmons. Li panicked when she saw that Feng Wu wasn’t there.
“Little Feng! Little Feng!”
Li was worried sick.
Hearing her voice, Feng Wu stuck her head out of the tree.. “Aunt, I’m right here!”
