Chapter 404 After regaining consciousness, five years of marriage with a sickly Miao boy (Part 4 of 1)

Lin Xianghuai gave him a cold look: "Are you crying so loudly to wake your mother?"

Xiao Bao immediately shut his mouth, large tears still hanging on his reddened eyes. He sniffled pitifully, glanced at his mother who was still sleeping, and whispered, "Then I won't cry anymore."

"Ha," Lin Xianghuai was speechless, feeling that these two were there to bring him bad luck.

I shouldn't have been so foolish as to snatch that idiot back in the first place.

After lunch, Xiao Bao climbed onto the bed and took a nap while hugging Yuan Jiang's arm. Lin Xianghuai kept Yuan Jiang's food warm in the pot, then picked up his basket and walked out of the stilted house.

Yuan Jiang was half asleep, her head was still foggy, when suddenly, she felt something small pressing on her arm and wriggling around. She frowned in annoyance, then opened her eyes and tilted her head to look.

It turned out to be her little fox cub.

Little Bao, being young, slept soundly, clinging to Yuan Jiang's arm. His chubby little face was flushed, and he pouted, whimpering, "Bad Daddy..."

Lin Xianghuai...

Yuan Jiang blinked. She had originally planned to rest for a bit, but she hadn't expected to fall asleep without realizing it. Where was Lin Xianghuai? Where did he go? And where was her roasted rabbit?

She looked around and nudged Xiaobao's shoulder: "Xiaobao, where's your dad?"

"Hmm..." Xiao Bao opened his eyes sleepily, sat up blankly, and thought for a moment: "Dad went to find food for Xiao Bai."

Who is Xiaobai?

“Xiao Bai is indeed Xiao Bai!” Xiao Bao stood up and got out of bed, saying in a strong voice. He brought a pair of pink cloth shoes and placed them by the bedside: “Mom, put on your shoes, I’ll take you to eat.”

Yuan Jiang frowned, realizing that Xiao Bao was only three years old and she wouldn't be able to get any information out of him. But this little white thing didn't sound human. She muttered something suspiciously to herself, put on her shoes, and led Xiao Bao out of the stilted house.

The kitchen was built in the courtyard. It was made of loess, three meters high, and about twenty square meters in size. It was a traditional earthen stove, and people cooked with firewood. There were small flames burning in the stove. When you lifted the lid, you could see a plate of vegetables and rice.

The dish was arranged neatly, with two roasted rabbit legs, some stir-fried rabbit meat cubes, and a few green vegetables.

Yuan Jiang put out the fire, brought out the food and placed it on the wooden table in the yard to eat. Xiao Bao stared intently at the rabbit leg, swallowing hard.

Normally, he and his mother would each have one rabbit leg, but today his mother was being clever; he wanted to share his rabbit leg with her!

Thinking this, Xiao Bao reluctantly looked away.

"Xiao Bao, here you go." Yuan Jiang smiled and gave Xiao Bao a roasted rabbit leg. Afraid that he wouldn't accept it, she sighed dramatically, "I didn't have much of an appetite when I woke up. I feel like throwing up when I see roasted food."

Xiao Bao panicked: "Mom, don't throw up! I'll finish the roasted rabbit leg!"

Xiao Bao eagerly grabbed the roasted rabbit leg, rushed to a corner, and began to eat it heartily. Only after finishing did he return to his stool, satisfied, and smiled: "Mom, the roasted rabbit leg is so delicious!"

Yuan Jiang remained silent, thinking that once her wounds had healed, she would take Xiao Bao into the mountains to catch rabbits.

She had a big appetite, but she couldn't finish more than half of the rabbit meat and rice. Xiao Bao, who had a big appetite, had just eaten a rabbit leg after lunch and couldn't finish the rest either.

The two, one big and one small, stared at each other.

Suddenly, the sound of silver ornaments jingling rang out, and Yuan Jiang lifted her eyelashes to look in the direction of the sound.

A beautiful young woman with a head full of silver hairpins walked gracefully towards them. She was wearing a white Miao-style dress with a front opening, and her phoenix eyes were cold and arrogant. She walked into the courtyard in black cloth shoes, looked around and saw no one, before turning her hostile gaze to Yuan Jiang.

She raised her chin and asked, "Where is Ba Daixiong?"

The Miao people place great importance on bloodlines. They believe that the blood of outsiders will taint the purity of the Wuling Miao bloodline. From ancient times to the present, they have strictly prohibited their members from intermarrying with other ethnic groups. Anyone who violates this rule will be killed without exception!

The villagers had always strictly adhered to their clan rules, but at this time, Ba Daixiong actually picked up a Han Chinese girl from outside the village and, disregarding the villagers' objections, married her! They became husband and wife!
