Chapter 156 Little Green Tea

"You're right. I'm indeed petty and intolerant. Didn't Aunt Jiang know this a long time ago?"

"Besides, I really hate this kid!"

"Let me tell you a joke. Thanks to this good baby, Pao Ye and I are still a couple in name only."

"Every time we're bored and want to play a couple of pokers, this child will get sick at the perfect time. Burns, fever, colds, hunger strikes. Even when there's really no reason, her nanny mother can predict that the child is seriously ill, even in danger of death, and only Yuqian can cure her."

"We just moved into a new house, and she got sick at just the right moment."

"I know. It's common for children to get sick. All I can say is that this child and I are incompatible. I can't afford to offend him, but can't I just hide away?"

"So that if the child has any accidents, bumps, or headaches in the future, it won't be blamed on me, and I won't be branded as someone who mistreats a martyr's orphan."

"Youqian, quickly bring the sweet child to the bridal chamber and pamper him! I won't delay your role as a loving father!"

Qi Xu didn't mention tea in any of his sentences, but every word was piercing, tearing the child's innocent and harmless disguise to pieces.

The old sisters-in-law who had previously accused Qi Xu began to turn against him again, looking at the child on the ground with contempt and whispering.

"Tsk tsk tsk, this kid is really annoying. He's so young, but he has so many little tricks up his sleeve."

"That's right. Who would like someone who keeps doing good things for the bad guys?"

"What do you think? Will Master Pao and his young wife be able to consummate their marriage today?"

"It's hard to say! They've been married for so long, they should have consummated their marriage long ago. How could it still go smoothly if it was delayed until now? If I had been interrupted time and time again, I'm afraid it would have been a problem long ago!"

…….

After complaining, Qi Xu deliberately paused and pretended to sigh.

"Hey, it's getting late. Yiyi, let's go check out my second brother's house. And buy a couple of poker cards so we can play together?"

"I'm such a grown-up, and I can't even play poker. How embarrassing!"

Lu Shixu raised the corners of his lips and supported her in a deliberately arrogant manner.

"Okay! Second brother is pretty good at playing cards, let me teach you!"

Lin Youqian's eyes were bloodshot, like an angry leopard about to go crazy. He clamped Qi Xu's wrist tightly and snatched her away from Lu Shixu.

"Come home with me. You want to play poker? I'll teach you right now!"

Qi Xu tried to escape with his arms and legs bared, but was held tightly by Lin Youqian's powerful arms and forcibly carried on his shoulders.

"Ah! Help!"

Qi Xu screamed very loudly, but in this situation, who would dare to go up and take care of such trivial matters?

Lu Yiyi nudged Lu Shixu. "Brother, hurry up! Qiqi is crying for help. We can't let that scumbag bully her!"

Lu Shixu said coldly.

"Don't worry, he doesn't dare. He's just talking nonsense. If he really dares to use force, Qiqi will probably perform a section of amputation on him on the spot."

Seeing the bitter forced smile on Lu Shixu's face, Lu Yiyi felt distressed. She couldn't help but tease him.

"Second brother, you're an old monk. I'm afraid you've never even touched a playing card before? How dare you say you're good at playing cards just now? I'm embarrassed for you. If it were Third Brother, it would be almost the same."

Lu Shixu wanted to punch her to death.

"I'm naturally gifted, and I'm invincible the moment I start. You know shit!"

Lu Yiyi leaned over to his ear and gave him a suggestion with a smile.

"Brother, why don't you find a woman to date? I think the second daughter of the Xue family I met last time is pretty good. You're a bit of a nerd, and she's pretty good too, so we'd make a perfect couple."

She didn't think Xue Jing was good at all, she clearly hated her to death. The reason she encouraged her brother to be with Xue Jing was to eliminate her rival and help herself.

Only when Xue Jing falls in love with another man can Ouyang Jiashu give up. Only then will she have a chance to win over her idol.

"Lu Yiyi, if you're full, go cool off. Don't meddle in my business."

Lu Yiyi continued to preach.

"Humph! Who wants to care about you? I'm doing this for your own good. There's a saying, if you're good, I'm good, and she's good too! Even that scumbag from before would probably applaud!"

Lu Shixu started to get angry.

"Lu Yiyi, you're a traitorous idiot. Am I your brother, or is he your brother?"

Lu Yiyi answered with a playful smile.

"Of course you are my brother? But he is my brother-in-law, so he is almost like a biological brother."

Lu Shixu didn't say anything.

He finally understood why Lu Shiyu had to beat his sister every day since she was little. Because this stupid and brainless sister really deserved a beating.

"Brother, am I wrong? Could it be that even today, you still harbor hatred towards Qiqi?"

"Don't make me upset. Even if I don't give up, what can I do? I won't steal her away. It's enough for me to stand outside the wall and protect her silently."

Lu Yiyi leaned her head on Lu Shixu's shoulder and sighed.

"Brother, why is our relationship so hard?"

Lin Youqian carried his wife to study the artillery firing, and the banquet continued. Old man Li personally stepped forward to maintain the situation and clean up the mess for him.

We can't let a banquet to reward the entire army turn into a comedy show.

By then, Mr. Pao will lose face and no one will invest money in new military scientific research projects.

What's more, the Lu family kid might seem to be at odds with Master Pao, but in reality, their relationship is incredibly complicated. They're like enemies, but also like friends. Who can really see through them?

"Today, Master Pao is celebrating his new house, and all the soldiers are eating and drinking well. As for the poker jokes, you can play as many as you want on New Year's Eve."

"After this banquet, everyone, be careful with your words and actions, perform your duties, fulfill your responsibilities, and devote yourself to your work. No one is allowed to cause trouble for me. Do you understand?"

"yes!"

The commander had spoken, and no one dared to play around anymore. All officers and soldiers, with their own bowls in hand, buried their heads in their meals. Any table that didn't finish their meal would have to pay for it themselves.

After eating for about half an hour, people began to leave. Everyone was busy going to their own work, and no one paid attention to Tongtong, who was sick with a fever.

She quietly ran to Old Man Li and pulled his sleeve to beg him.

"Grandpa, can you help me and take me to find my dad?"

At this moment, Old Man Li didn't dare to offend anyone.

He had already interrupted that kid once before, leaving him heartbroken. If he continued to do that, he would probably bring a cannon and blow up the entire arsenal.

"Little boy, your father is out on some serious business. Grandpa will ask another uncle to take you home, okay?"

Tongtong refused. "No, no, I want my daddy. I don't want anyone else except my daddy!"

"It's all that vixen's fault. She took my dad away. I hate that bad woman—woo woo—"

Everyone finally understood why Qi Xu would rather bear the blame than accept this child. In fact, it was too annoying.

Who would like you if you always call others vixen?

Lu Yiyi pinched her cheeks lightly with her fingers to scare her.

"Shut up, you little green tea. With your ugly appearance, you still want to compete with our Qiqi for affection. You're dreaming."

"Lin Youqian, he's our Qiqi's son. Go wherever you want, you naughty kid!"

Tongtong was brought up in a pampered state. Whenever she went out, people would praise her for being pretty, cute, sensible and well-behaved. The first time she was called ugly and a naughty child, she was so scared that she burst into tears.

"Woo woo, you bad guys, you bullied Tongtong, you and that vixen are both big bad guys!"

She ran out crying with her short legs.

Yang Nier chased after him. "Miss, don't run, wait for me!"

Old man Li instructed the guard beside him.

"Go over there and take the child to the hospital and take good care of him."

"Yes!" Guard Xiao Xie quickly caught up.
