Fragrance Thief (1)
“Is it Fragrance?” Jiang Xiaoman asked with eyes clouded with tears.
“It’s a pig, a black and white pig!” The security guard didn’t know who Fragrance was.
“Fragrance is a black and white pig!”
So it turned out that Fragrance had been stolen. Jiang Xiaoman was very sad.
She felt that it was her responsibility. If she didn’t hate on Fragrance earlier, it wouldn’t have gotten stolen.
That said, who would steal a pig who did nothing but eat?
Jiang Xiui looked gloomy as she thought of sothing. She planned to go deal with the pig thief herself, but Xiaoman really missed her pig and didn’t want to leave, so she had to allow her to co.
When they ca to the place where the pig thief was held, they saw Fragrance there when they reached the door.
Another security guard tried to hold it down desperately, but it was shy towards strangers, not to ntion it almost got kidnapped. Right now, it reacted really strongly and kept howling, trying to escape.
The person and the pig competed with each other, making the scene chaotic.
When Xiaoman arrived, tears flowed from Fragrance’s eyes. It was as if it saw its mother, and it ran towards her.
Fragrance rubbed Xiaoman’s legs with its nose, acting spoiled.
Jiang Xiaoman was very distressed and held it in her arms tenderly, crying, “My dearest, I almost never saw you again. Don’t run around in the future, alright? The world has really gone bad now; the bad guys won’t even spare a pig!”
Fragrance oinked a few tis, rubbing against its little master, acting spoiled and aggrieved.
It had really suffered, wuu wuu wuu.
It was just a pig, why couldn’t it live its life happily. It had to endure so much torture; why was its life so bitter!?
Fragrance raised its legs pitifully, looking to be comforted, and Xiaoman looked at it with tears on her face.
As she looked at it, she suddenly said, “There are so many white and fat piglets in the pigpen, why did they choose to steal you? You are not delicious.”
“…”
Fragrance cried even more aggrievedly!
Jiang Xiaoman expressed her heartfelt feelings to Fragrance, and then rembered that she was going to punish the thief who stole her pig.
She looked inside and found Grandma raging at the pig thief, her posture looking like she was ready to fight and kill.
And that pig thief, unfortunately, was soone she happened to know.
It was the uncle who had once planned to kidnap her.
Wasn’t he in prison? How could he show up here and steal her pig?
Jiang Xiaoman counted; oh right, it had been almost 6 years. He was probably released after serving his sentence.
Teacher Tang said that knowing when you’re wrong and making ands was a good thing. Since her granduncle had already accepted his punishnt, she didn’t plan to care about his matters anymore. But she didn’t expect that he wouldn’t change his ways, just like how a dog couldn’t stop eating shit; as soon as he was released from prison, he ca to kidnap her pig!
Jiang Xiaoman couldn’t bear it anymore.
She patted Fragrance on the back, put it down, and then rushed in while cursing, “You big villain, I’m going to punish you!”
Hong Xingguo glanced at Jiang Xiaoman shyly. His arrogant deanor like he did not know the imnsity of heaven and earth had been gone for a long ti.
Six years of jail ti left him looking no longer like a human. Before he went in, he was a lazy person who only knew how to eat and sleep. Plus, he was younger than Jiang Xiui, so he looked quite healthy. But now after he ca out, he looked a decade1 older than Jiang Xiui, as if he could return to the dirt at any ti.
His back was hunched and his face was full of wrinkles. He looked very old.
Although Hong Xingguo hated the little girl inside, his six years in prison had long worn down his courage. After going through all that suffering, he was now really scared.
He would never dare to have any bad thoughts anymore.
He was already this old, and was finally able to co out of prison alive. Hong Xingguo would never think of going in again.
While he was scolded by Jiang Xiaoman right now, the little girl pointing at his nose, he didn’t dare to say anything and could only accept it.
The suffering he received in prison was akin to being in purgatory. In comparison, this was nothing at all. Hong Xingguo clenched his hands, shrank his neck and chuckled, “Xiaoman, don’t say that. Please persuade your grandma. Granduncle didn’t an to, I really do not have any bad intentions. I, I, it’s not easy getting out of prison. I haven’t eaten a full al, so I ca to see your grandma, but she turned away from and drove out… I didn’t have any other options, I just thought that there were so many pigs here, it’s alright to take one, right? I won’t dare anymore, I won’t dare.”
Hong Xingguo just ca out; he was released a bit early. One reason was because he was getting older and they were afraid that he would die inside, and the other was because he had been behaving well, so his sentence was slightly reduced.
But when he ca out, Hong Xingguo was just waiting to die.
Six years ago, he was just a trash in society who did nothing but idle. Now that six years had passed, he turned from trash into trash that was about to be buried, even more useless.
His son was a disappointnt and unfilial.
Knowing that he had co out, his son only told him to go ho by himself, not caring about him at all. In the past few years, his son basically never even asked about him, and left him to fend for himself inside.
Hong Xingguo had no choice but to co to Jiang Xiui, although he had known for a while that Jiang Xiui would not let him comfortably stay here.
But he didn’t expect her to be so cruel, that cutting off their relationship really ant cutting off everything. She wouldn’t even give him a mouthful of hot rice!
Today, Hong Xingguo had fallen into a situation where he had no relatives, no one to rely on.
“Ptooey! I spit on you! You deserve it! If you knew from the beginning that this is how it would turn out, why even bother trying?” Jiang Xiui didn’t give him any face at all. She looked at him pretending to be pitiful and cursed, “I’ve already told you what needed to be said. Our families can only be enemies, we’re not relatives anymore. If you don’t want to call soone, then quickly get out of here! Otherwise, I’ll call the police!”
Jiang Xiaoman also imitated Jiang Xiui, spitting with her hands on her waist, looking very proud and angry at the sa ti.
