Chapter 271 They are children
Ma Junjie, with a stern face, walked to the car, opened the trunk, and said...
"Bring your things up and get in the car!"
Liu Dongmei's eyes widened again when she saw the car.
"Ah Jie, this...this is your car?"
"Is it...new? Wow, Ah Jie, you...you've struck it rich?"
Ma Junjie shook his head, revealing an expression of disgust.
He noticed that Ma Dazhu was having trouble carrying Huahua and just wanted to leave as quickly as possible.
So he walked over to Liu Dongmei, intending to pick up the two plastic bags and put them in the trunk.
When Liu Dongmei saw Ma Junjie approaching, she showed absolutely no intention of helping him.
He glanced at Ma Junjie with a grin, then ran over to the car and touched and examined it.
Ma Junjie bent down, grabbed the plastic bag on the ground, and prepared to lift it up.
Upon lifting it, I found the bag was quite heavy; I couldn't lift it with one hand at all.
Ma Junjie asked Ma Dazhu in confusion,
"Brother, what's in here?"
"The corn and sweet potatoes we ate on the way, and our clothes and shoes..." Ma Dazhu replied.
Upon hearing this, Ma Junjie found it utterly incomprehensible and put the bag down.
Then he noticed the two children next to him, and realized they were staring at him without moving.
Ma Junjie asked,
"Brother, are those two... with you?"
Upon hearing this, Ma Dazhu's face showed some embarrassment.
Nod.
"Yes, that's right."
"They are..."
Before he could finish speaking, Liu Dongmei walked over with a smile.
He glared at Ma Dazhu, interrupted him, and began to introduce himself enthusiastically.
"Ah Jie, come here, let me introduce you."
"These two are both family members."
"This little girl is my sister's daughter. She is 13 years old and her name is Tang Die."
"This boy is also my sister's child. He is 14 years old and his name is Tang Feng."
Ma Junjie looked them up and down. They were both dark-skinned and thin, and significantly smaller than their peers.
If he hadn't been told their ages, Ma Junjie would have thought they were both only 10 years old.
"Isn't it summer vacation and school just started? Why are they here?" Ma Junjie asked.
Upon hearing this, Liu Dongmei burst out laughing.
"Studying? What's the point of studying!"
"Even if you graduate from school, you still have to work. So it's better to start working sooner and earn money sooner."
"They both only graduated from primary school; being able to recognize characters is enough!"
Ma Junjie shook his head.
Looking at the two children who still looked so young, I felt a pang of sympathy.
He felt sorry for them both.
Because he understood that the parents of the two children probably shared the same thoughts as Liu Dongmei.
They believe that studying is useless and send them into society at a young age.
This is practically a form of stifling for children.
"Tang Feng, right?" Ma Junjie smiled at the boy, trying to get closer to him.
"Come on, give me a hand, let's put the bag in the car together."
Tang Feng glanced at the plastic bag expressionlessly.
Ma Junjie still had a smile on his face, thinking that he would probably bend down and lend a hand.
To everyone's surprise, the next second, Tang Feng turned around and strode towards Liu Dongmei.
Finally, he simply hid behind Liu Dongmei.
Ma Junjie was stunned when he saw it.
What exactly does this child mean?
Does he not understand what I'm saying?
Next second,
With a "snap",
A loud slap rang out.
Ma Junjie suddenly came to his senses and looked ahead.
Liu Dongmei, enraged, raised her large, thick hand and slapped Tang Feng hard across the face without any mercy.
He cursed viciously.
"You son of a bitch, Tang Feng, what the hell are you doing? Didn't you hear what your Uncle Ma said?"
"He asked you for help and you're hiding? Are you fucking looking to die?"
"Useless thing, I'll kick you to death..."
Liu Bingbing was standing quite close.
Seeing this scene, I was completely stunned.
Seeing Liu Dongmei raise her foot again, she quickly pulled Tang Feng away and rushed to protect her behind her.
He advised,
"Sister-in-law, let it go, he's just a child..."
"He...he probably didn't hear me, or he's just shy because we're not close. Never mind, don't hit him..."
Liu Dongmei was still furious and had no intention of letting Tang Feng off the hook.
He was still pointing at him.
"Tang Feng, you fucking come here yourself, I'll beat you to death..."
Ma Junjie couldn't take it anymore.
With a roar,
"Sister-in-law, stop arguing!"
"He's just a child, is it really necessary to get so angry?"
"Stop talking and get on the bus!"
Seeing Ma Junjie's serious tone, Liu Dongmei didn't say anything more.
She squinted and pointed a finger at Tang Feng, glaring at him while muttering curses.
He turned around and got into the car.
Liu Bingbing breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.
She bent down and looked at Tang Feng with concern.
She couldn't help but touch his face, her expression filled with heartache as she spoke.
"Tang Feng, are you...are you alright?"
"That slap was so hard! I was terrified just hearing about it. It must have hurt a lot!"
"Sigh, how could you be so cruel to a child? It's really..."
As they were talking, Liu Bingbing suddenly felt something was off.
Because Tang Feng didn't speak, but her eyes were fixed on him.
Liu Bingbing was surprised.
He paused, then looked in the direction Tang Feng was looking.
Looking down slightly,
Good guy,
Tang Feng's gaze seemed to be fixed on her own chest.
She was now bending over to comfort him, the loose straps of her tank top slightly revealing a patch of her snow-white chest.
Was Tang Feng spying on me?
In that instant, Liu Bingbing felt a rush of heat to her head.
I quickly stood up straight, covered my chest with my hand, and felt a chill run down my spine...
"You...you...?"
Tang Feng wore a half-smile, her eyes still fixed intently on Liu Bingbing.
Suddenly, he licked his lips again.
After a while, it opened its mouth as if it were saying something.
"Wow, it's huge!"
"It smells good?"
Liu Bingbing was incredulous, feeling like she was about to explode.
By this time, Ma Junjie had already put the two bags into the trunk.
He urged,
"Bingbing, don't just stand there, get in the car and let's go!"
"If you don't leave now, the car will stay here and the traffic police will come to tow it away!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Dongmei let out a loud shout.
"Tang Feng, are you fucking deaf? Get in the car!"
"And Tang Die, don't just stand there like an idiot, come up here!"
Tang Feng grinned, then raised an eyebrow at Liu Bingbing before turning and getting into the car.
Liu Bingbing's mouth dropped open in disbelief.
I even wondered if I had just imagined it.
Visual or auditory hallucinations?
"Bingbing, hurry up, the traffic police are coming!" Ma Junjie urged again.
Liu Bingbing responded with a numb "Oh."
Lifting my foot, it felt like my feet were floating.
Finally, he walked to the car, opened the passenger door, and got in.
Ma Junjie started the car, made a turn, and sped away.
Liu Bingbing's face was ashen; she slumped in her seat, her mind still blank...
"Brother, let's go straight to the hospital now and get Hua Hua treated first!" Ma Junjie said.
Ma Dazhu hesitated, unable to make up his mind for a moment, and looked at Liu Dongmei.
Liu Dongmei cursed without any politeness.
"Useless junk!"
Then he started laughing again and said to Ma Junjie...
"Ah Jie, don't rush..."
"Look, we've been eating corn and sweet potatoes all the way here, we're completely out of energy and exhausted..."
"We adults are fine, but the children are the problem; they're pitifully starving..."
"How about you... Ah Jie, treat us to a meal first?"
