Chapter 323 Don't Go Soft
Chapter 323 Don't Go Soft
Hearing the familiar voice, Hua Niang immediately went to open the door and saw the two people outside: "Weren't you going to look for someone? Why are you back so soon?"
"Weren't you all on the mountain? How did you all end up here?"
Hua Niang knew from Hong Lin's words that they had already gone up the mountain, and then frowned: "Did you make things difficult for them?"
This question was directed at Red Phosphorus because Flower Girl knew that only Red Phosphorus would make things difficult for them, while Scarface would never do such a thing.
And he has no need, or the inclination, to do such a thing.
"What do you mean I made things difficult for them? They're capable of doing it, so why would they care what others say?"
"You're so kind-hearted. They kicked you all out, can't I even say a few words to scare them a little?"
Honglin was in a particularly bad mood, and her words were sharp and sarcastic. When Hua Niang heard this, she pulled Honglin to sit down next to the stove.
"I didn't say you did anything wrong, it's just that they... Anyway, let's just let this matter go and not cause them any more trouble in the future."
Honglin pursed her lips upon hearing this: "I haven't caused them any trouble, and I won't. As for the future..."
She wouldn't care whether they lived or died unless they came to her door on their own initiative.
After this matter was explained, Hua Niang asked them about the search for the person. Scarface told Hua Niang that the person had been found, but they couldn't go there yet.
Once the person was found, Hua Niang was relieved. Scarface said he wanted to go back to Linjiang City and asked if they would like to go with him.
Hua Niang was silent for a moment, then looked up at Scarface: "We won't go with you. Give us the address, and we'll go find Lin Cai ourselves."
He just said that he himself cannot go now, but that doesn't mean others can't. Besides, they are using different identities than before, and as refugees, no one should suspect anything.
Scarface didn't stop her after hearing this. He told Hua Niang the address and then told her what she should be careful about after she got there.
After the two of them discussed it, Scarface took Cui Dazhu back to the mountain, while Hua Niang and the others packed up and went to Linjiang City.
When they got back up the mountain, Cui Dazhu asked Scarface, "Aren't you afraid of causing trouble by just giving out the address like that?"
"It's much easier for them to go there under a different identity than for me to go there; there shouldn't be any trouble."
Cui Dazhu thought it was unlikely, because those girls were too conspicuous. Unless they all turned themselves into crazy women, how could they escape other people's eyes!
The people on the road were all bad news. Even the three of them had encountered a lot of problems before. Now, only Hua Niang and a few other women were on the road.
If we encounter anything else on the road, there's no guarantee that no problems won't arise.
But then I thought about it again, and those women were no pushovers. With their skills, if any fools dared to run into them, they probably wouldn't get away with it.
Scarface and his group left, as did Flower Girl and her group. Since Red Phosphorus had already been there once, their trip there went smoothly this time.
Several girls dressed themselves up like beggars, their whole bodies, including their faces, were slovenly.
Red Phosphorus disliked this outfit because it was too ugly and dirty, but her protests were useless.
The others agreed, and if she didn't agree, she would have to stay here!
"You're bullying us. We're looking for people, not actually fleeing famine. Do we have to make ourselves look like this?"
"If you don't want to, then fine. If you don't want to, then stay here and don't come with us."
Upon hearing this, Honglin was instantly furious, and she glared angrily at Hua Niang.
Then he smeared the black soot from the bottom of the pot onto his face, and even his neck and hands were covered in it before he stopped.
She had just finished applying the face cream when Hongxiu handed her a set of clothes. Looking at the tattered clothes, she really didn't want to wear them at all.
Honglin's unhappy look startled Hongxiu, who threw the clothes at her directly: "This is what Huaniang said. If you don't want to wear it, you can go to Huaniang."
Hearing this, Honglin gritted her teeth. Did she say she didn't want to wear it anymore?
She's just having trouble accepting it right now.
Besides, it's just a piece of clothing, what's the big deal!
They dressed themselves up, packed their things, and prepared to set off. Little did they know that before they even reached Yangjia Village, they would encounter another group of people.
Everything was fine until some people just happened to be inconsiderate, like right now...
"Oh my, where did this young lady come from? Why is she so fierce? Can't she even play with us for a little while?"
"You know, it's so cold outside, and we don't have anything to keep warm. Wouldn't it be nice if you played with us, young lady, to warm up a bit?"
Little Bell went to collect some snow, but since she couldn't find any clean snow, she went straight into the woods.
There was still a lot of snow on the tree branches. Little Bell picked it all off and carried it back when she ran into two men.
Seeing the two men blocking her way, Xiaolingdang's face turned ugly. Just as she was about to ask them to move aside, she heard what they had just said.
She stood there with her head down, making it impossible to read her expression. Having lived with Hua Niang and the others for so long, Little Bell was no longer the same Little Bell.
She knew how to protect herself, and what to do when faced with danger. Now that they were in danger, she threw the snow in her hand at their faces as the two men approached.
"I told you to leave, but you wouldn't leave, so don't blame me for taking action against you."
The two men, hit by the snow, yelled and took a few steps back, wiping the snow off their faces.
"You bitch, do you have a death wish? How dare you hit me? Do you know who I am?"
One of them glared at Little Bell, looking as if he wanted to devour her.
But Little Bell wasn't afraid of the two men at all. Seeing their fierce expressions, she simply took two steps back, then bent down and picked up the dry branches from the ground.
"Who you are and what does it have to do with me? Why should I know you?"
"Sister Hongxiu said that you should not be soft on those who harass you, because being kind to others is being cruel to yourself."
