"You shameless, lazy old woman! You ignored the medicinal meal the young mistress wanted, and went off to eat, drink, and steal money!"
She grumbled as she filled the water tank, hesitated for a long time before finally grabbing her handkerchief and running outside as if she had made up her mind.
"You, come here!"
"girl."
"Where are the old women and maids from the kitchen?!"
"I...I..."
"What do you mean, 'what ...!' Get back to finding it!"
"Yes, yes..."
"You're all asking for it! None of you will give me a moment's peace!"
The shouts faded into the distance, and the small figure darted into the kitchen.
One by one, they carefully examined the steamer.
Ah, found it.
A sinister glint flashed in her azure eyes. Without hesitation, she pricked her index finger, and the eerie black blood fell into the stew pot, instantly blending into the fragrant medicinal dish.
She grinned smugly.
"Oh dear, you're bleeding."
Her lips twitched slightly as she looked at the person who had suddenly appeared. "You..."
"It's me." The person blinked without realizing it. "Ah Hui, you're so careless."
His blue eyes narrowed slightly.
"Huh, don't you recognize me? Ah Hui, you're so forgetful. We even exchanged secrets."
She smiled innocently. "How could that be? Ah Hui would never forget Sister Ah Niu, no matter who she forgets."
"Mmm, mmm." The other person nodded with great satisfaction, then took her small hand in their hands. "Does it hurt, Ah Hui?"
Her eyes darted around, and she frowned. "It hurts, it hurts so much! Sister, please lick it for me. Mother always does this when I hurt myself."
As she said this, the man did it without even looking at her; what a kind-hearted fool!
A mocking glint flashed in his blue eyes.
Her blood is a form of poison, each drop a "spirit branch." This fool, sucking it like this, probably won't see tomorrow's plum rains.
"Okay, it's stopped."
"Thank you, Sister Aniu!" she said affectionately.
"It's nothing, it's nothing."
This idiot actually thinks he's done a good deed.
She sneered inwardly, but her face remained completely innocent. "Sister, you didn't come here for...?"
The man licked his lips sheepishly. "I overslept again, and couldn't stand the hunger, so I came to find something to eat. Where's Ah Hui?"
Just as he was about to speak, a commotion erupted outside the door. "Grandmother is waiting to eat, why haven't you sent it over yet!"
"Someone's coming." She pulled the stunned person along and quickly hid behind the woodpile.
"Ah Hui, you're so clever."
"Don't talk." She rolled her eyes at the person beside her, then fixed her gaze on the stove.
"Which one?" the little girl asked, turning the steamer over.
"You silly girl, your grandmaster is a vegetarian!"
I was right.
He watched with delight as the little girl took away the bowl of medicinal food, a smug look on her face.
"Finally gone." Someone casually picked up a steamed bun and began to eat it with relish.
"Sister, sister."
"Hmm?" I mumbled a response.
"Sister, let's play hide-and-seek with Ah Hui."
"Hide and seek?"
"Hmm!" The little head nodded heavily, looking quite innocent and carefree. "Sister will be the Taoist, and I'll be the ghost. Let's see when sister can find me!"
"Hehe, what I'm best at is catching ghosts."
"Let's have a competition until one of us catches the other."
"good!"
The man actually covered his eyes and started counting seriously.
"One, two, three, four... Ah Hui, are you gone yet? Hide well. Five, six..."
