Chapter 1242: Chapter 1064: Xiao’ai, Dabao, Xiaobei

"Hey, I’m just unlucky, stained my quilt," Xia Dabao laughed, she often heard the girls from the village calling it "bad luck," so she mimicked them. After saying that, Xia Dabao then asked Axiang, "What about you? Did you get your period? I got mine for the second time yesterday."

Axiang quickly nodded, "Yes, I got it the year before last, been two years now."

"Maybe, it seems you’re a bit older than me, right? I’ll be fifteen after the New Year, and you?"

"I’m sixteen," Axiang said with a smile.

With the efforts of the two girls, the quilt was finally wrung out dry, making it much lighter to carry back. Xia Dabao placed the quilt back in the basin, then turned to thank Axiang, "I really owe you one today, otherwise if I had carried this quilt back myself, there would definitely be half a basin of water left."

"No need to thank me, I just happened to pass by," Axiang said, somewhat embarrassed, then turned around and picked up her wooden basin.

Just as she bowed her head, Xia Dabao saw the wooden hairpin in her hair and couldn’t help asking, "Axiang, did Zhao Datu give you that hairpin?"

Axiang suddenly became shy, "Umm... yes."

"Are you and him dating now?" Xia Dabao asked further.

"Not really, nothing official yet, how could we be dating," Axiang said shyly, lowering her head.

Xia Dabao persisted, asking "Then, do you like Zhao Datu?"

"I... not really, but... Datu is quite nice to me, he... often helps me chop wood," she said.

"So, Zhao Datu is always pestering you, right?" Xia Dabao couldn’t just stand by and watch, she felt she had to step in and warn Axiang, hence she opened up, "Axiang, I think this Zhao Datu isn’t a good person. He came to my house to propose a while ago but I turned him down. Haven’t you noticed he always bullies the weaker ones around the village? You’d better stay away from him, otherwise, you won’t know how he will trick you in the end."

After Xia Dabao finished speaking, Axiang took a couple of steps back.

Really? Was Zhao Datu really that kind of person? But, he had been quite nice recently. Giving her perfumed powders and hairpins, often helping her, and yes, he just kissed her a moment ago.

So, Axiang was hesitant to believe Xia Dabao’s words.

"Axiang, don’t you believe me?" Seeing that Axiang had no response, Xia Dabao asked anxiously.

"I... I need to go hang the clothes," Axiang said, then hurriedly picked up the wash basin and left.

Xia Dabao watched Axiang’s retreating figure, shaking her head involuntarily.

It seemed that naive Axiang had already been bewitched by Zhao Datu.

If Zhao Datu were sincere, that would be good, but if he was just teasing Axiang, then she was truly in danger.

But, Xia Dabao couldn’t always intervene in other people’s affairs, otherwise she would become known as a meddling busybody. Better just mind her own business.

However, Xia Dabao never expected that just two days later, trouble would befall Axiang.

...

That day, Zhao Datu came looking for Axiang again.

But it was in the evening, and Zhao Datu climbed up to the top of Axiang’s wall, seeing her gathering clothes in the courtyard, he called out to her.

Following the sound, Axiang saw Zhao Datu lying on top of the wall. She panicked internally, her grandmother and mother were in the kitchen, if they discovered him, the little secret she cherished would be revealed.
