âJingting, do you just hate me so much?â
âCousin-in-law, donât put on that complaining look, otherwise people may think that Iâve betrayed you. In fact, our love has never been started yet.â Xiao Jingting replied indifferently.
Looking at Xiao Jingtingâs leaving back, Sun Miaomiao felt her heart filled with an unspeakable sense of emptiness.
â¦â¦
In Xiao Jingtingâs secondary house.
Xiao Xiaofan held his feet and rolled about in the bed.
âI hit him with a brick and made him cry like a baby, ha haâ¦â Xiao Xiaofan said happily.
Looking at Xiao Xiaofan, Xu Muan happy as well, but had a sense of worry at the same time. âAlright, stop laughing. Thanks to your fatherâs showing up in time, you wouldnât be prisoned into the ancestral hall by your grandparents.â
Zheng Peiâer had suggested prisoning him into the ancestral hall for several days to reflect on what he has done, till Xiao Jingting came.
The ancestral hall was a cold and humid place, and giving Xiao Xiaofan was still so young, how could he bear to stay there for days! However, the issue was, if it were not for Mu Shuyu who helped to reason with them, Wang Lu might have agreed with the punishment at that time.
âMy father becomes so nice now.â Xiao Xiaofan said happily, rubbing against the quilt in his arms. Father has never so cared about me before, even when I was pushed into the river by that bad fatso.â
Xu Muan lowered his head and was glad in mind. âItâs nice. Fortunately, Xiao Jingting is not the one before.â
âIs Xiaofan falling asleep?â Xiao Jingting asked.
Xu Muan nodded, âHe is in the bed, but he may be awake and excited now.â
âHe should be excited. He wants this revenge for long.â In impression, it seemed that Xiao Xiaofan was always being bullied by Xiao Yuerong and his brother. Since he beat Xiao Yuerong this time, he certainly was excited.
âWhat are you talking?â Xu Muan looked around. Walls have ears! Xiao Jingting was just talking nonsense.
âParents are still partial to the big brother!â Xiao Jingting said.
Xu Muan nodded, âYeah!â Although the parents hadnât pursued the issue much this time, Xu Muan saw that Wang Lu was dissatisfied with Xiao Xiaofanâs beating Xiao Yuerong.
Xiao Qingyan had been always favored by Xiao Linfeng and Wang Lu, that couldnât be changed so easily.
âLetâs hang out with our son in the fair tomorrow,â said Xiao Jingting.
Xu Muan hesitated, âTomorrow? Is that OK? Xiaofan has just made such a trouble, should we bring him to hang around?â
âWhat are you afraid of? I used to be that unruly anyway, never like Xiao Qingyan,â said Xiao Jingting.
Xiao Qingyan looked down upon Xiao Jingting before, and Xiao Jingting felt that Xiao Qingyan had robbed of his resources, so these two brothers had always been in a bad relationship.
âYouâre right.â Xu Muan said.
âWe can ask second brother for company,â Xiao Jingting said.
Xu Muan noded, âOK.â It was due to Xiao Jinfeng and Mu Shuyuâs help that Xiao Xiaofan could be okay this time.
âDid you meet Sun Miaomiao when you made inspection of the fields today?â asked Xu Muan.
Xiao Jingting nodded, âYes. And I met her just now.â
Xu Muan surprised, âJust now?â
âSeems to be a coincidence, but I think she had waited for me there on purpose,â Xiao Jingting said.
Xu Muan laughed. If it werenât for the fact that Xiao Jingting was not the one before, he could have given her a hug when encountering Sun Miaomiao. However, since Xiao Jingting had changed to be a different one, Sun Miaomiao would surely be very disappointed. The Xiao Jingting right now loved men.
âSun Miaomiao is a proud one. She must have married to Xiao Muhong by believing that she would handle the power as the main wife,â said Xu Muan.
Xiao Jingting said with his arms crossed, âWho cares! After a while, I will request the father to move out.â
Xu Muan nodded, âThatâs good.â Xiao Jingtingâs jade space couldnât be exposed under the light. But there are so many ears and eyes in Xiaoâs family, itâs hard to hide the secret in front of those sharp-sighted old guys.
â¦â¦â¦â¦
âWhat are you thinking about?â Looking at Xiao Jinfeng, Mu Shuyu asked.
Xiao Jinfeng shook his head, âNothing. Only feeling that our parents are too partial.â Without third brotherâs arguing, Xiaofan could have been confined into the ancestral hall. Xiao Jinfeng had got along with Xiao Xiaofan for some time before, and thought that although that boy was not that smart, he was a reasonable and obedient.
Mu Shuyu nodded, âI think so. Itâs Xiaofanâs fault to hit Xiao Yuerong with the brick, but how could Xiao Yuerong demand to ride Xiaofan on his head and treat him like a horse? So disrespectful Xiao Yuerong was. Since Xiaofanâs still so young, he could get hurt by Xiao Yuerongâs bullying. But your big brother just let it go.â
Xiao Jinfeng shook his head and said, âThey donât care. In fact, big brotherâs two kids used to bully Xu Muanâs two kids, so Xu Muan must have born them much grudge.â Before, he was usually not at home and didnât have a strong relationship with Xu Muan, so he couldnât do much for them.
Mu Shuyu took a breath and said, âIâve heard your third brotherâs old story, too. Itâs nice for him to turn into a different person.â
Xiao Jinfeng nodded, âYeah!â
