Chapter 148 Xue Hongrui Doesn’t Want a Young Wife
"What little wife? I don't want one! When I grow up I'm going to be a soldier, fighting bad guys on the battlefield. I don't have time to play with little wives!"
Zhong Tingting had just entered the military compound when she saw Xue Hongrui standing at his door from afar. She immediately jumped over, hoping to improve his favorability. However, as she approached, she received news that made her panic.
The Xue family had met the Liu family? But how was that possible? The Liu family all lived in Linjiang Village. According to the memories of the previous life, shouldn't they still be in the village at this time?
"You little bastard, you know nothing! The Liu family's granddaughter is so precious. If I, your grandfather, hadn't risked my skin and stubbornly clung to Xiao Xinxin, our granddaughter-in-law might have been gone again!"
Old Xue had a look of indignation on his face, and it was obvious that he was very unhappy that his grandfather had broken the original agreement and gave the warm treasure to Qin Zheng.
"What? The Liu family actually dares to look down on me? Why?"
Xue Hongrui couldn't believe it. He was the most popular little boy in his family compound. Every girl in the compound, from fifteen to five months old, loved him. Hearing from his grandfather that he was being disliked, Xue Hongrui wondered if he was hallucinating.
"Yes! But compared to that boy named Qin Zheng, you, well, there's no comparison!"
Mr. Xue sighed sincerely, which immediately made Xue Hongrui's face darken.
"Master, am I your biological father? How can you boost others' morale and destroy mine? I'm going to be angry!"
Seeing that Xue Hongrui's fighting spirit was aroused by his few words, Old Master Xue smiled slyly in the corner where no one was paying attention.
"Grandpa Xue, Brother Xue, why are you all standing outside? Have you eaten yet? These are dumplings made by my grandma. They're so delicious. Try them. Oh, and these pickles. Grandma said they're a hot commodity at the supply and marketing cooperative. You can't even get them if you queue up early!"
Zhong Tingting pulled open the cotton cloth covering the small basket slung over her arm, revealing a plate of plump dumplings and a can of kimchi underneath. She spoke to the two of them with a sweet smile.
The grandfather and grandson looked at each other, their eyes silently communicating the two words "you come".
Mr. Xue: You have attracted bad luck in love, you have to solve it yourself.
Xue Hongrui: I won't. I'm always following my own daughter around. It's so annoying. I hate this girl the most. You are a member of the family, you should entertain the guests.
Mr. Xue: Me neither! There’s too much stuff in this girl’s eyes. It hurts my eyes if I look at them for a long time.
Xue Hongrui: I believed your lies. You are such a bad old man.
"Grandma Tingting is so polite. I'll shamelessly accept these things. Come on, Mrs. Zhang, go get those apples and oranges."
The Xue family's apples and oranges were all specially allocated to Mr. Xue from above; they were all premium fruit, incomparable to any ordinary apples on the market. A plate of steamed buns in exchange for half a basket of fruit—the Zhong family definitely made a killing.
The Xue family was so polite and courteous that Zhong Tingting couldn't find fault with them. However, she felt very reluctant to leave like this. She could only pretend not to notice that the Xue family was trying to entertain guests, and she approached Xue Hongrui, trying to be intimate with him.
"Forget it, it's just a child. If he wants to play at home, then he can play at home!"
Mr. Xue stopped his wife who was about to chase them away and said indifferently.
