Chapter 17: I'll Play With You If You Kill Me


Looking at the eggs and pancakes in Xie Yuntang’s hands, Su Tao gulped involuntarily, and soon, her stomach made a "rumbling" sound.


Su Tao, "…"


For a while, she was embarrassed to look up. She had always felt that she should appear domineering in front of Milksop, instead of being embarrassed.


Otherwise, how would she be able to bully him?


Soon, she grabbed the things in an aggressive manner. "Why were you so late? Do you believe that I’ll hit you?"

"I couldn't find you. I'll walk faster next time." Xie Yuntang acted like he had done something wrong.


Su Tao, "..."


He didn’t even get angry at that? Something was probably wrong with this kid’s brain.


She finally understood the difficulty of the reverse strategy plot.


Milksop would instinctively explain people's malice away.


Darn it.


At this time, Su Tao’s stomach rumbled again, and she rubbed her belly. She would eat first, and figure out a way to bully Milksop after she was full.


The girl peeled the egg in a pretty rough manner. The egg surface was unsmooth, and she licked the shell while peeling.


Xie Yuntang took a brief look, and whispered, "Let me peel it for you."


Hearing that, Su Tao glanced at him. She wasn’t afraid that he would eat the egg. She stuffed it into his hand, and quickly started to eat the pancake.


That silly child, Su Zhi, wouldn’t get to eat it. She couldn’t take it home. She would be doomed if she took it home, and the wretched old woman found out.


The food would only be safe in her stomach.

Then she looked at Milksop in front of her, who was lowering his head and peeling the egg carefully. He peeled slowly, but the peeled egg was smooth. Everything this child did was as clean as his person.


If he wasn't the "key" to going home, she really didn't want to bully him.


She was a little dispirited. "Milksop, what will make you angry?"


"Why must I be angry?" Xie Yuntang looked obedient and ignorant.


Su Tao, "..."

She choked, pounded her chest, and enunciated, "You really annoy me."


Xie Yuntang wasn’t unhappy either when he heard that. He handed her the peeled egg. "Do you like eggs? I’ll give you one every day if you want to eat it."


"Stop stealing eggs, or you'll get beaten."


Being beaten would make you even crazier.


If it wasn't for the lack of food, Su Tao wouldn’t have been so crazy as to steal eggs. She gritted her teeth at him. "Can you feed me for a lifetime?"


It would be better to just kill her.

Xie Yuntang thought about it seriously, then nodded. "Yes, I can. I have a lot of money. It’s enough to feed you."


He probably thought that Su Tao had a large appetite, so he added, "My parents also have a lot of money."


Su Tao, "..."


Su Tao’s temper was subdued by his kindness. Forget it, I’ll eat the pancakes first. She sat down on the ground, then thought of something, and grabbed a handful of honeysuckle for him.


"Here, have these."

Xie Yuntang took them from her obediently, his eyes sparkling. "Thank you."


"Don’t thank me. Anyway, I’ll still bully you in the future.” On account of the fact that Xie Yuntang gave her pancakes, Su Tao issued him a warning in advance.


As soon as she finished talking, she saw that he had eaten the whole honeysuckle. Probably because it didn’t taste good, Xie Yuntang’s face scrunched up.


This wasn’t her fault. She really didn't have the intention of playing a prank on him.


She slapped his head snappishly. "You're so stupid. Pinch the back, pull it, and then suck its liquid."

Xie Yuntang was a little embarrassed. He blushed, and said softly, "I didn't know that."


Upon hearing that, Su Tao stuffed the egg into her mouth. Then she took a few honeysuckle flowers, and handed them to him.


Xie Yuntang reached out to take them. He carefully lowered his head to take a sip. His eyes lit up immediately. "It's sweet."


Seeing his reaction, Su Tao knew that he liked it. She swallowed the egg. "Do you have a sweet tooth?"


"I’m okay with sweet stuff."


"I'll pick a bunch of them for you later."


"Thank you."


In the end, Su Tao left an egg for Su Zhi. He probably didn't have any food to eat. After Su Tao hid the egg in her clothes, she got up to pick two handfuls of honeysuckles for Xie Yuntang.


"We are even now. Go back."


She left him alone after saying that. She started cutting the ragweed with a sickle.


She wondered how long it would take to cut two baskets full of ragweed. It was a hot day, even for someone who didn’t have to work. 


Xie Yuntang glanced at the sky. There was still some time before school started. He said softly, "I’ll accompany you."

Su Tao felt baffled. She glanced at him, a little wary. She couldn't possibly be friends with him. How would she be able to go home if they became friends?


"I don’t need your company. Don't even think of playing with me. I don’t have any games to play with you."


She paused for a moment. Thinking of something, her eyes lit up, and she added, "If you want, I can play with you. After I play with you, you’ll smash me to death. How about that?"


"I know a lot of games. I’m sure you’ll enjoy yourself. How about that? Kill me after playing."

She was going crazy again.


Xie Yuntang was afraid that Su Tao would hit herself again, so he quickly stepped back a few steps. "I'm going home. Have the water." After saying that, he put down the bamboo container, turned around and left.


However, he was worried about her. He turned back after walking a few steps, and he did this many times.


Su Tao would have to be a fool to not understand what he meant, "..."


"Milksop, if you turn around again, I’ll beat you!" After saying that, she raised her fist.


Xie Yuntang didn't dare to look back again, and went home obediently. After returning home, he put the honeysuckles in a bowl.

"Where did you get these?" It was the first time Mrs. Xie-Qin saw him bring these things back. Xie Yuntang liked to be clean and wouldn't touch these things usually.


"Su Tao gave them to me. They taste sweet. Mom, would you like to try one?" Xie Yuntang imitated Su Tao's movements, pinching the back of a honeysuckle, then handed it to Mrs. Xie-Qin expectantly. Then he said: "Suck it. "


Mrs. Xie-Qin didn’t refuse her son. She took it from him and sucked it. It was sweet, but it didn’t really taste that nice.


She said in surprise, "Did you go and play with Su Tao?"


"Yeah, I gave her the pancakes."

Xie Yuntang thought of something, and said seriously: "Mom, Su Tao isn’t bad. She’s just sick, and will get well."


If Su Tao knew that he was painting her in a good light, she probably would find a rock to kill herself. She didn’t want him to paint her in a good light. She wanted him to hate her to the core.

  ……


Sure enough, Mrs. Su-Qian didn't let Su Tao or Su Zhi eat for the whole day. She was probably still angry about the fish.


Fortunately, Lin Sanzhu picked some wild vegetables while collecting firewood. When she returned from washing the dishes in the main house, she started cooking for them.


It wasn’t that dark yet. Looking at the two swollen faces, she was a little exasperated. She pointed at Su Tao's head, and whispered: "Wretched girl, your brother is ignorant. Are you ignorant too? How many times have I told you to be good?"


"Will you only be afraid when your grandma sells you?"


Su Tao lowered her head and didn’t dare to make a sound. She knew that she shouldn’t have argued with Mrs. Su-Qian. If she was sold, she would be unable to do anything. "I know I was wrong."

"I don't think you know you were wrong!"


Lin Sanzhu wanted to say something else, but at this moment, Su Fu came in. He was obviously limping, and she quickly walked over to support him. "Why did you come out? Didn't I tell you to rest?"


"I’m fine."


Su Fu touched Su Tao's head, and said: "I won’t let your grandma sell you."

"Bear with it. After our family moves out in a few years, I’ll definitely let you live a good life."


Su Tao was touched, but at the thought that it wouldn’t happen until several years later, she didn't have the courage to stay here for even one more day.


If there wasn’t any food in summer, they could still pick wild vegetables to fill up their stomachs. But if there wasn’t any food in winter, they would probably die of hunger.


In ancient times, many people would die in severe winters.
