An Yi's face darkened completely. "Look at what you're saying. My family isn't exactly strangers to my aunt and uncle, but we have absolutely no connection to your family!"

What's the deal with you coming to my house to help out?

When my parents come back, I'll have to trouble you to see us. We kids will probably get a beating!

"If you're not feeling well, you should go somewhere cool and stay there."

Anjing secretly tugged at Anyi's sleeve, and Anyi shut up.

Anjing gave an awkward smile and said softly, "Grandma Wu, my younger brother has always been so disrespectful in his speech, please don't mind him."

However, you don't need to worry about the affairs of this shop.

If we're really too busy, we'll just ask Grandpa to come over.

There's really no need for you to worry about this."

"Grandma, I want to eat that too!" The little guy stared intently at Ankang, yelled at Hong Lanzhi, then plopped down on the ground, his eyes brimming with tears, and refused to get up.

Those two wet, teary eyes looked like they'd been bullied.

Anle felt a chill run down her spine; these kinds of wailing children were the most annoying, so noisy.

"Little brother, let's go play in the back."

Anle ignored him completely, holding Ankang's sticky little hand, and prepared to bypass the noisy little guy to go to the backyard for some peace and quiet.

I never expected that my little cousin would pounce on me and try to steal food from An Kang.

Caught off guard, An Kang was suddenly tackled to the ground by the little guy, and was so frightened that he burst into tears!

Suddenly the two children started crying, and now there was no more peace and quiet to hide away.

Anle looked at Ankang, who had been tackled to the ground, with a headache, grabbed his younger cousin by the back of his collar, and tried to pull him away.

The little guy, who was putting all his strength into clinging to An Kang and refusing to let go, was not someone An Le could pull away. The two were not much different in age, and there was a huge difference in physical strength between men and women, so the result was predictable.

Anle failed to pull the person up; instead, the little guy, who was rolling around wildly, struggled and fell to the ground with him.

The three of them huddled together and twisted into a ball.

An Ding's expression changed, and he abandoned his sullen cleaning and hurriedly pulled the person away.

An Ning also got angry, threw down the handkerchief in her hand, and started cursing at Hong Lanzhi.

"Grandma Wu, is your grandson a robber or bandit? Why did he even try to rob us?"

Hong Lanzhi wasn't surprised at all. This kind of thing happened all the time in her neighborhood, otherwise she would have been bullied to death by other people's children!

It's also because her grandson has been raised to be unruly and has taken advantage of others quite a bit.

It's not a big deal. As long as you can eat it yourself and get the benefits, that's a skill.

In Hong Lanzhi's mind, her grandson had to be raised this way. He couldn't be wronged. Even if someone else's child got beaten, she couldn't let her own grandson be bullied.

So much so that a perfectly good seedling was ruined and turned into a bully and tyrant among the children.

"Oh dear, isn't it normal for kids to fight and roughhouse?"

"Which of you didn't go through this process?"

Hong Lanzhi's casual remark infuriated the twin siblings An Yi and An Ning, turning their faces ashen.

Anning: "We would never do something like robbing someone else's things."

An Yi: "Pah! Don't compare me to this little bandit leader. My family would never produce such a troublemaker."

Meanwhile, the troublemaker on the other side was happily clutching the half-eaten macaron he had snatched, stuffing it into his mouth and wolfing it down until his cheeks were bulging, ignoring An Kang who was crying loudly beside him.

"Waaaaah... Waaah..."

An Ding held An Kang in her arms, wiped his dirty little face, and wiped away his tears.

"Don't cry, your second brother will go get it for you."

An Kang looked at Wu Changhao with teary eyes, seemingly a little afraid.

Anle was also in a bad mood because of the commotion. This little cousin was simply a rotten kid who had sprung up from a bandit's den.

If they don't give it to you, you'll just steal it.

Look at that face, eating with such a carefree and self-righteous expression; he's probably done this kind of thing quite a few times.

He glanced again at Hong Lanzhi, who remained unmoved. Indeed, what good could she learn from a grandmother like that?

Even the most upright and promising children can be corrupted.

"Second brother, let's go to the backyard."

An Ding picked up a can of milk from the coffee table and handed it to An Kang in her arms.

The little guy, clutching his milk jug and sucking on the straw, was taken to the backyard by An Ding.

Wu Changhao watched as An Kang was carried out of the back door by An Ding, and then followed after him as if nothing had happened. An Yi blocked his way and glared at him fiercely.

"You can't go into the backyard. Either go out or stay here obediently."

If it weren't for the fact that this little guy is his cousin, his younger cousin, he would have thrown him out long ago.

How can we let him bully his own family here?

The little guy, unafraid of strangers, glared fiercely back at An Yi, even deliberately kicking An Yi's shin and pointing at the back door with an arrogant and self-righteous shout.

"Um, I want some too."

An Yi was stunned for a moment, then realized what was going on. This little brat had his eye on the milk in his little brother's hand again, and was about to jump up and try to snatch it.

After figuring it out, An Yi was both angry and amused.

“If you want to eat, go home and ask your dad for money to buy it. If you dare to try to take food from my little brother again, I’ll beat you up and throw you out. I’ll never let you into my house again.”

Hong Lanzhi glared at An Yi protectively, "Even your parents wouldn't dare say such harsh words in front of this old woman."

An Ning was so angry that she laughed instead.

"Grandma Wu, does your grandson think he's in the right to come up and snatch things from people?"

"Is this an outsider? Isn't this your little cousin?"

Why are you arguing with such a young child?

"They've wasted their years; these older cousins ​​are so petty, their hearts are smaller than the eye of a needle."

Hong Lanzhi confidently nudged her grandson.

"Haowa, go on, go to the backyard and play with your little cousin."

An Jing frowned slightly. "Grandma Wu, you really can't go into my backyard."

Even if my little cousin gets in, there won't be a place for him to stay and play.

There's just so much stuff behind us; it would be bad if we bumped or knocked anything over.

No sooner had Anjing finished speaking than a woman rushed in, her eyes fixed on Hong Lanzhi.

"Oh dear, Liang Dong's mother, you really brought your grandson here? Don't just stay here eating, hurry back home, something's happened to your family!"

Hong Lanzhi, with her hands tucked into her pockets, glanced at the woman and said, "Don't talk nonsense. What could possibly happen to my family?"

"Your grain shop is in complete chaos right now, even your in-laws have come knocking on the door!" the woman said, glancing warily at An Jing and the others.
