Xiao Moran could figure out whose handiwork it was even with his toes. "Mo Xi is actually very kind. As long as you don't provoke her, she won't treat you like this. I really don't understand why you two always argue whenever you meet. Now it's escalated to the point where you fight even when you're having a meal. You're like this no matter the occasion. You're really sworn enemies."
"Enough with the nonsense!" Jiang Yi yelled at him. "Hurry up and take me to wash. Do you want me to die of pain? I'm always unlucky when I run into you two siblings."
Xiao Moran was already in a bad mood after sending Xiao Nuan away.
If Xiao Nuan washes his face and eyes, he can endure the pain.
That scenario would definitely be one of bittersweet joy.
Now it's that annoying Xiao Moran's turn, and he's already furious. It's no wonder he's taking it out on him.
Xiao Moran patiently led him into the bathroom.
Afterwards, Mo Xi realized that she had been a bit rude. After all, Jiang Yi was a guest, and she was, at the very least, the host.
He got up and made a cup of tea for each of the elders at the table.
"Uncles and aunts, please have some tea. This is this year's new tea."
"Thanks!"
After a big meal, a cup of refreshing tea is especially good for cutting through the greasiness.
Then, the group forgot about the little incident and started talking about the new tea again.
Moshi then vividly recounted the situation in the village, adding that the villagers' improved lives were all thanks to his sister-in-law.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him expectantly, Moxi told them all about Xiaonuan's experiences in the village.
The adults were very excited to hear this.
"I never expected our Xiaonuan to be so amazing," Ye Mei said, wiping away her tears. "This child has really suffered."
"Ye Mei, you've raised a wonderful daughter," Jiang's mother said enviously. "She's your pride. We'd be satisfied if Jiang Yi were even a tenth as good as your Xiao Nuan. That brat really needs to find a girlfriend soon; someone keeping him in check might help. Otherwise, he'll never be serious."
"Aunt Jiang, doesn't Xiang Qiuyun like Jiang Yi?" Mo Xi had the same thought now. As long as Jiang Yi had a girlfriend, he wouldn't interfere with his brother and sister-in-law's relationship.
"Sigh!" Jiang's mother sighed. "Don't mention that woman!"
“Yes, don’t go to Xiang Qiuyun.” Ye Mei reminded Mo Xi. “If you run into that woman in the future, stay away from her. The whole story about your brother and sister-in-law has been the talk of the town, and it’s all because of that woman gossiping behind their backs.”
"It really is that wicked woman!" Mo Xi said hatefully. "No wonder she gave my sister-in-law such an old-fashioned and dowdy dress as a birthday present last time. You can never judge a book by its cover. My sister-in-law used to treat her so well."
...
Just as they were having a great time chatting, a scream came from the bathroom.
It was Jiang Yi's voice.
They thought Jiang Yi had poor eyesight and had fallen in the bathroom.
When he ran to the door, he saw that Xiao Moran had hit him again.
"Mo Ran, why did you hit Jiang Yi again?" Su Ming was too ashamed to face his old comrade-in-arms.
“This guy has delusions,” Xiao Moran said angrily. “He said he wants to compete fairly with me for Xiao Nuan, and he wants me to give him a year. He wants to become a big boss within this year, and during this time, I am not allowed to touch Xiao Nuan. Xiao Nuan and I are a legitimate couple. This guy is shameless.”
"Well done!" Jiang's mother clapped her hands in delight. "During the time when Xiaonuan was hurt, you didn't take good care of her. Instead, you got together with a bad woman like Lanyin. If I were Xiaonuan, I definitely wouldn't accept a man like you again."
"Mo Ran, if this kid dares to have such thoughts again, beat him to death!" Jiang's father was also furious. "So I don't have to do it myself."
After saying that, he grabbed his wife and stormed off, his good mood ruined by his good-for-nothing son.
Ye Mei and Su Ming followed after them.
"Old Jiang, what are you doing?" Su Ming pulled Jiang's father aside. "We parents shouldn't get involved in the children's affairs, lest it ruin our harmony."
"Exactly, why are you so angry?" Jiang's mother didn't seem to want to leave. "If you ask me, we need to let that brat get a few more punches so he'll know what's what. We've tried so hard to reason with him, but do you think he'll listen? Let Mo Ran and his sister teach him a lesson a few times, and he'll definitely behave."
“It’s all your fault for spoiling her like this.” Father Jiang pointed at her nose.
"Why is it my fault?" Jiang's mother retorted. "If anyone's to blame, it's your parents. If they hadn't spoiled this kid like this since he was little, would he be like this today? By the way, I heard he's been going to the sanatorium a lot lately. Is he up to something again? You should ask your dad. The old man spoils this kid too much; he always grants his every wish."
“Okay, I’ll go to the sanatorium now.” Jiang’s father strode towards the jeep.
“Then you go, I won’t go. I want to talk to Ye Mei for a while longer.” Jiang’s mother stood still, partly because her son was still there, and partly because she really wanted to talk to Ye Mei for a while longer before leaving.
"Whatever!" Jiang's father stormed off.
"This person is really something. He's already in his fifties, and he still has such a bad temper. He dares to give you attitude in any situation." Jiang's mother shook her head helplessly.
“Men are all like that, just ignore him!” Ye Mei took her arm. “Come on, let’s go inside and have some tea!”
The scene in the living room left them both stunned.
Xiao Moxi actually wiped the wounds off Jiang Yi's face herself.
Jiang Yi closed his eyes, and Mo Xi gently applied the medicine to his face.
This scene is so heartwarming.
Jiang's mother pulled Ye Mei aside, signaling her not to go over and disturb them.
But as soon as Moxi opened his mouth, this beautiful scene changed.
"You're really overestimating yourself. You can't beat my brother in a fight, and you can't argue with me, yet you insist on doing something so stupid, like throwing an egg against a rock, and doing something shameful like destroying someone else's family. You're a disgrace!"
"Xiao, Mo, Xi!" Jiang Yi suddenly opened his eyes and roared angrily.
"Why are you shouting so loudly? I'm not deaf." Mo Xi ignored his anger and continued to apply the medicine to his face. "But your face, if you don't apply the medicine, it will leave marks. Your only advantage is that you have a good-looking face. If you ruin it, you'll have nothing left to rely on."
Her words infuriated Jiang Yi even more, yet he was helpless against her.
Her words struck a chord with him. He absolutely couldn't let any marks be left on his face. His eyes were blazing with anger, but he had to obediently let her little hands rub and massage his face.
Upon seeing this, all three of them almost burst out laughing.
Jiang Yi has really met his match. No one in his family has ever been able to control him since he was a child.
After Moxi finished applying the medicine, just as she was about to discipline the wild girl, she turned to Su Ming and said, "Uncle Su, help him to the sofa over there. Let's make room here for tea."
Su Ming really came over, ready to take action.
"Don't touch me!" Jiang Yi was furious.
Su Ming ignored him and didn't even look at him, reaching out to help him up.
Moshe is right. This kid is taking up everyone's tea-drinking space. We need to help him to the sofa in the corner to rest.
"I don't want you to help me up," Jiang Yi struggled. "Stop! Stop!"
"Let me help you," Jiang's mother said to Su Ming, helping him up on the other side.
