Chapter 25
“Hiss, this…” said the Eleventh Young Master, “It seems to make some sense.
Sixth brother, you are such a fool! I didn't react, but you just agreed with him.
Don't blame this or that, the Eleventh Young Master is a straightforward person.
Xue Lang: ...After pretending to be a good sixth brother for so many years, can he say that he has forgotten whether his brother's mother is dead or alive?
Of course not!
Just laugh it off.
"You are confused yourself, but you tend to blame others."
Xue Lang ignored him and turned his head and said, "The relic is fake, but the broken thing is real. I will take you to buy a better one later. Don't be polite anymore."
"Thank you, Sixth Brother."
"Thank you, Sixth Brother."
Like an echo, Xue Lang frowned and looked at Eleven: "Are you going too?"
"Why can't I go? He is your brother and I am not? Why should you buy it for him and not for me?" The Eleventh Young Master argued.
Xue Lang: "What are you fussing about? Your jade pendant isn't broken."
"If it's not broken, you're giving it to him and not giving it to me? What's the logic behind this? If it's not broken, you're not going to buy me anything for the rest of my life?"
The Eleventh Young Master asked angrily.
Xue Shun: "Brothers, stop arguing. It's all my fault..."
"It's none of your business," Xue Lang soothed him, looking at Eleven impatiently, "What the hell are you fussing about? I don't give you enough on a normal day, and you're fighting for a jade pendant."
The Eleventh Young Master clutched his chest as if hurt, his eyes widening as he said, "Brother is partial, how come it's my fault?"
Swords and bows are drawn, so nervous.
Although Shen Jiao couldn't lift his head, his ears were almost not enough.
At this moment, Xue Shun suddenly reached behind his back and handed over a small plate with two pieces of dessert.
Shen Jiao understood what he meant and took it, gave a piece to Qiongzhi, and then stuffed it into his mouth.
Then he put the plate back in his hands.
Xue Shun took the plate without even turning his head and put two more orange slices on it.
Xue Lang was annoyed by this third wheel and just wanted to get rid of him quickly: "Xue Shiyi, you've really been spoiled and become more and more unruly. You still have to argue over such a small matter. Seventeen is only a year old. How old are you? And you're still so ignorant."
"I'm immature? Sixth brother, how can you say such things? When we were little, you promised me that if the other brothers had anything, I would definitely be included. Now, you can't even bear to give up a jade pendant? Am I immature, or have you changed?!"
Eleven roared with a red face and thick neck.
Xue Lang couldn't hide his disappointment: "Look at you, yelling and screaming over such a small thing, do you still look like a child of the Xue family?"
"You're talking nonsense! I look exactly like my father, how dare you say I don't look like a member of the Xue family!" Eleven was furious and swung his fist down.
Xue Lang didn't expect that this idiot would actually dare to fight him.
This caught him off guard, but he was still agile and leaned back. Xue Shun quickly picked up the two plates of food and stepped aside. The next moment, the table was kicked to the ground by Xue Lang.
He stuffed the plates into Shen Jiao and Qiong Zhi's arms, saying, "Eat quickly!" Then he stood in front of the two and calmly tried to stop them from fighting: "Sixth Brother, Eleventh Brother, stop fighting!"
The sound was drowned out by the clashing of fists and kicks and the exclamations of the men. Xue Lang wanted to stop, but the furious Eleven kept pressing him, which made him really angry. His remaining rationality said, "Don't break their things, hit the roof!"
Xue Shiyi said angrily, "That's exactly what I want!"
The two men flew out of the window and jumped onto the roof.
Shen Jiao and Qiong Zhi took off their hairpins and ate the food, whispering, "Young Master, would you like some?"
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Xue Shun immediately turned around and said, "Come on."
He took out the chopsticks hidden in his sleeve and said thoughtfully: "What a loss, it's my turn to grab the meat."
"It's good to have it," Shen Jiao said contentedly, "Young Master is really quick to act."
Xue Shun was proud: "That's right."
Qiongzhi was worried: "With such a big commotion, will anything happen?"
Xue Shun: "Who cares? It's not me who asked them to fight."
He just wanted to get some free food and drinks, and hopefully get a jade pendant.
Who knows what's wrong with these two people? They are usually so nice to each other.
Xue Shun was still puzzled.
However, these words did serve as a wake-up call for him, and he quickly ate a few bites. Then Xue Shun started to act up, trying to climb out through the window to stop the fight and yelling for a ladder.
He looks useless and troublesome, but he seems quite sincere.
When the two brothers came down, he looked at the scars on their faces and burst into tears out of sadness and self-blame. He did not forget to compensate the restaurant for its losses. Naturally, he failed to rob the two brothers, but the people around who were watching the excitement had a better impression of him.
No matter whether it is useful or not, at least it makes sense.
Some people also retorted: "How could someone be so kind as to sell articles behind the master's back?"
The one who was trying to pick a fight was also a polemicist: "So according to what you said, the young masters of Tongcai Villa are also not on good terms with each other, otherwise why would they fight?"
The two men looked at each other, gasped, and felt a little scared and excited, both feeling that they had discovered something extraordinary.
Xue Lang was very sharp-eyed and could hear the discussions. He cursed inwardly and looked at Xue Shiyi with a dark look. Then he put on the appearance of a good brother and said loudly, "This is my fault. Shiyi, don't be angry anymore. It's just a jade pendant. If you like it, I'll give you one too. Why are you arguing with Shiqi?"
As he spoke, he took off the jade pendant from his body and handed it over.
Xue Shiyi didn't think much of it. After hearing his brother admit his mistake, his anger subsided a little. He took it and put it on without any pretense, muttering, "That's more or less the same. We are both younger brothers, so why should I favor one over the other?"
Shen Jiao looked at the crowd and instinctively felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it. His mind kept recalling what he had learned, but it didn't make sense.
Xue Shun understood much more than her, and he knew what Xue Lang was doing just by listening.
Isn't it just stepping on other people's reputation to protect yourself?
What brotherly love is all bullshit, they bully fools!
The group gradually dispersed and set up another table in the restaurant. Before the meal was halfway through, someone came to look for Xue Shiyi.
It is said that the Shi family and the Liu family started fighting over land again.
Xue Shiyi was unhappy when he heard this: "Didn't I persuade them this morning? Why are you unhappy again in the evening? The street is so small, how could they possibly put up two lantern mountains at the same time? Where should they put them? On my head!"
He twisted his body, wailed, kicked over the stool, his heart was dead, and he floated out like a wandering soul.
"Sixth Brother, what's happening with Eleventh Brother?"
"Don't pay any attention to him. It's not a big deal. It's common for two families to fight over the territory of the lantern mountain. The shops of the Shi and Liu families are opposite each other, so they are close to each other. No one wants to give in. They quarrel every year, from the time they put up the lantern mountain to the time they tear it down.
Nothing happened in the past few days. Tomorrow is the Sea God Festival, so nothing can happen today. Eleven just doesn't have that kind of patience, so Mother gave this matter to him to temper his temper. Now it seems that it's useless. He even dared to attack me."
Xue Lang smiled bitterly and touched his face. He said something bad about Eleven without leaving any trace, then cheered up and said,
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Have you eaten well? If you are, I will take you for a walk."
"Okay, that's it." Xue Shun nodded.
Xue Lang patted his head and sighed, "You are so obedient. If everyone was like you, I wouldn't have to worry so much."
You talk as if they all have no parents, so why should you bother with them?
Xue Shun felt awkward, but he still smiled cooperatively and said carefully, "Eleventh Brother didn't mean to anger Sixth Brother."
"Well, let's not talk about him anymore. As his brother, how can I argue with him? Little Seventeen really underestimates my brother's magnanimity."
Xue Lang felt that he had acted well. Seeing Xue Shun lowering his head with an embarrassed smile, his gentle face looked a little delicate, he suddenly had an idea:
[System, do you think he likes me a little bit?]
How do you know?
[Is that even a question? Look at his other brothers. They either ignore him out of curiosity or are just plain irritated. And then look at me. Every time I see him, I always prioritize him, even going so far as to turn against my brothers for him. How could he possibly dislike me? Check his favorability rating.]
-10
Xue Lang: ...
[Mr. Duo? Did you see that?] He was almost shouting in his heart.
System: [Wait, let me check... Okay, that's right, -10.]
Xue Lang shattered lightly, thought for a moment, and then asked: [How much does he like Eleven? ]
[10,] the system quickly said before Xue Lang's defense was broken, [Wait, I read it wrong, it's +10, a total of 20, this time it's correct.]
