Chapter 69: 69
“Jingting, do you just hate me so much?”
“Cousin-in-law, don’t put on that complaining look, otherwise people may think that I’ve betrayed you. In fact, our love has never been started yet.” Xiao Jingting replied indifferently.
Looking at Xiao Jingting’s leaving back, Sun Miaomiao felt her heart filled with an unspeakable sense of emptiness.
……
In Xiao Jingting’s secondary house.
Xiao Xiaofan held his feet and rolled about in the bed.
“I hit him with a brick and made him cry like a baby, ha ha…” Xiao Xiaofan said happily.
Looking at Xiao Xiaofan, Xu Muan happy as well, but had a sense of worry at the same time. “Alright, stop laughing. Thanks to your father’s showing up in time, you wouldn’t be prisoned into the ancestral hall by your grandparents.”
Zheng Pei’er 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.
“My father becomes so nice now.” 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.”
Xu Muan lowered his head and was glad in mind. ‘It’s nice. Fortunately, Xiao Jingting is not the one before.’
“Is Xiaofan falling asleep?” Xiao Jingting asked.
Xu Muan nodded, “He is in the bed, but he may be awake and excited now.”
“He should be excited. He wants this revenge for long.” 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.
“What are you talking?” Xu Muan looked around. Walls have ears! Xiao Jingting was just talking nonsense.
“Parents are still partial to the big brother!” Xiao Jingting said.
Xu Muan nodded, “Yeah!” Although the parents hadn’t pursued the issue much this time, Xu Muan saw that Wang Lu was dissatisfied with Xiao Xiaofan’s beating Xiao Yuerong.
Xiao Qingyan had been always favored by Xiao Linfeng and Wang Lu, that couldn’t be changed so easily.
“Let’s hang out with our son in the fair tomorrow,” said Xiao Jingting.
Xu Muan hesitated, “Tomorrow? Is that OK? Xiaofan has just made such a trouble, should we bring him to hang around?”
“What are you afraid of? I used to be that unruly anyway, never like Xiao Qingyan,” 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.
“You’re right.” Xu Muan said.
“We can ask second brother for company,” Xiao Jingting said.

Xu Muan noded, “OK.” It was due to Xiao Jinfeng and Mu Shuyu’s help that Xiao Xiaofan could be okay this time.
“Did you meet Sun Miaomiao when you made inspection of the fields today?” asked Xu Muan.
Xiao Jingting nodded, “Yes. And I met her just now.”
Xu Muan surprised, “Just now?”
“Seems to be a coincidence, but I think she had waited for me there on purpose,” Xiao Jingting said.
Xu Muan laughed. If it weren’t 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.
“Sun Miaomiao is a proud one. She must have married to Xiao Muhong by believing that she would handle the power as the main wife,” said Xu Muan.
Xiao Jingting said with his arms crossed, “Who cares! After a while, I will request the father to move out.”
Xu Muan nodded, “That’s good.” Xiao Jingting’s jade space couldn’t be exposed under the light. But there are so many ears and eyes in Xiao’s family, it’s hard to hide the secret in front of those sharp-sighted old guys.
…………
“What are you thinking about?” Looking at Xiao Jinfeng, Mu Shuyu asked.
Xiao Jinfeng shook his head, “Nothing. Only feeling that our parents are too partial.” Without third brother’s 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, “I think so. It’s Xiaofan’s 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 Xiaofan’s still so young, he could get hurt by Xiao Yuerong’s bullying. But your big brother just let it go.”
Xiao Jinfeng shook his head and said, “They don’t care. In fact, big brother’s two kids used to bully Xu Muan’s two kids, so Xu Muan must have born them much grudge.” Before, he was usually not at home and didn’t have a strong relationship with Xu Muan, so he couldn’t do much for them.
Mu Shuyu took a breath and said, “I’ve heard your third brother’s old story, too. It’s nice for him to turn into a different person.”
Xiao Jinfeng nodded, “Yeah!”
