She Chose to Be Strong After Her Rebirth and Won Everything Back

193 Heidi

With a click, the smiles of the four people with white and black hair on the stage were fixed.

After Qu Zhi finished preparing for the engagement, she still had to stay for New Year’s Day.

At this time, Chuchu was looking forward to it again. She had a deep impression of New Year’s Day in Su City every year. Last year’s New Year’s Day, there were many lanterns of all sizes, like big stars in the night. Sometimes, they would even gather for a group meal, which was even more lively. The entire village would gather together to eat and celebrate tew Year’s Eve.

After eating, the village chief would often speak and talk about what to do for the next year. At that time, the adults would be busy, and Chuchu didn’t care about these things.

She tugged at Liang Wen and asked, “Dad, what are we doing this year on New Year’s Day?”

Liang Wen tapped her little nose. “Eat something delicious.”

It was a dinner party, but it was a whole roasted lamb with one on each table. The skin was crispy, but the meat was tender. Liang Wen tore off a piece of meat for her, and she held it in her hands for a long time but still didn’t finish it.

However, it really smelled good. Chuchu’s stomach was already full, and she started to regret eating too much of the previous dishes. She couldn’t eat any more mutton.

Xiao Yi was also hiccuping, but she was still looking forward to it. The next dish was osmanthus and lotus seed soup, and she would only be satisfied after drinking it.

Only poor Sisi, can only eat light food. Sisi’s little nose could smell the fragrance, but Aunt Hui only stuffed light soup and blanched vegetables into her mouth.

Chuchu felt that she was so pitiful that she could only eat a little bit of such delicious food.

After eating, Chuchu felt that her head was very heavy, and her eyelids were heavy. She ran over and hugged her mother. “I really want to sleep.”

However, the village chief was going to speak up soon. She would catch a cold if she slept outside. “Go and play with Xiao Yi for a while.” Qu Zhi felt the two of them seemed to have made up and were playing together.

“No, I’m so sleepy.” Chuchu let out a big yawn. It didn’t matter who came. She had been playing with Xiao Yi for the whole day before dinner, and she had no energy left.

Qu Zhi remembered that Chuchu had placed a book in her bag when she left Jiang City. It was “Heidi”, which she had been reading recently. However, the book was a little thick and she couldn’t finish it. She planned to bring it to her Grandfather’s house.

Qu Zhi touched it and found that the book was still inside. She placed the book in the dazed Chuchu’s hand. “Can you go and read with Xiao Yi? Don’t fall asleep, you’ll catch a cold.”

After reading “Heidi”, Chuchu was no longer sleepy! She bet that Xiao Yi had never read this book before. Otherwise, she would not be so stingy.

Chuchu happily ran over to Xiao Yi while Qu Zhihao continued to listen to what the village chief was saying.

After listening to a long New Year’s greeting, he finally got to the main point. The village chief had called for this gathering to talk about the reconstruction of the ancestral hall in the village. He said that if it was to be built in a grand manner, the villagers had to donate.

After all was said and done, it was still a matter of money. In fact, the village chief could have just mentioned it directly, but he had to spend so much time.

Qu Zhi glanced at Liang Wen. He was listening attentively and seemed to be thinking about how much to donate.

At this moment, he turned his head to look at Qu Zhi and mouthed the words ‘how much’.

Qu Zhi shook her head with a smile. She didn’t want to spend money on such meaningless things.

The crowd below the stage became restless as everyone discussed how much they should donate. At this time, Chuchu ran over with tears on her face. “Xiao Yi just said that we ate the little sheep from Heidi! This was too sinful.”

She burrowed into Qu Zhi’s arms and cried like a tear-stained face of beauty.

On the stage, the village chief began to ask how much each family had donated. Qu Zhi and Liang Wen both looked at the sad little one.

Liang Wen smiled and tugged at her pigtails. “They’re the wool sheep. We’re eating ordinary sheep.”

“Really?” Chuchu raised her teary eyes.

“That’s right, look at it, don’t you see that it doesn’t have any fur?” Liang Wen said, “And sheep meat is bitter.”

Chuchu stopped crying. She suddenly had the confidence to convince Xiao Yi.

The beautiful story in ‘Heidi’ was not ruined by the delicious mutton on the table.
