The little aunt naturally repeated her words before Zhang Moyan could.
"She asked me to bring her here to play. After she came in, she started rummaging around everywhere. Then I saw her touching the bottle. I wanted to tell her not to do that, but then she dropped the thing on the ground!"
The little person cursed at others but curled up crying, as if he was extremely frightened.
Zhang Moyan was so angry that her hands were shaking.
"Xiao Maner," Xiao Xingyu squatted down, holding the little aunt's shoulders so that they were level with her, "Look into my eyes."
The little aunt had cried so much that her eyes were blurry and her body was twitching. Ying Yan raised her face from her tearful eyes and looked at Xiao Xingyu.
Xiao Xingyu waited until her sobs subsided before he opened his thin lips and said, "Children shouldn't lie. Is this really the case?"
Zhang Moyan couldn't help but hold her breath. Was Xiao Xingyu questioning the little aunt?
I couldn't believe it, and the words I wanted to say were stuck between my teeth.
The little grandmother nodded heavily, tears as big as beans falling from her eyes.
Lin Yin pulled out a tissue, and Xiao Xingyu took it to help the little aunt wipe away her tears.
The little aunt was still humming, so Xiao Xingyu patted her twice to comfort her, but then asked sternly, "You said Mo Yan asked you to bring her here?"
Zhang Moyan's eyes were startled. Because of the word "Moyan" that he said so naturally, her heart jumped uncontrollably and her gaze involuntarily focused on him.
The little aunt continued to nod.
Xiao Xingyu's eyes darkened, and the slight softness on his face disappeared completely. "Let me ask you, how did Mo Yan know about Zhen Yunxuan?"
After she finished speaking, the tear-stained face of the little aunt suddenly showed a crack, and even Lin Yin, who was bending over to look at her, froze.
Xiao Xingyu raised his well-defined face and slowly glanced around. His jawline and neck line formed a superior curve.
"The infrared grating burglar alarm system here is only turned off when Lin Yin comes here on Tuesday afternoons. How could Mo Yan know this secret?"
The little aunt stopped crying immediately. Xiao Xingyu said, "Hmm?" and her legs went limp. Fortunately, Lin Yin was supporting her small back and held her up: "Little aunt..."
Xiao Xingyu stood up and his eyes met Zhang Moyan who was staring at him. The two looked at each other for a few seconds, and then Xiao Xingyu walked to the pile of red fragments.
He pulled up his trouser legs and bent over, taking a closer look. He asked Lin Yin, "Is this the Guanyin vase that Grandpa bought in Hong Kong in 2018?"
Lin Yin replied, "Yes." She said anxiously, "This is Grandpa Guotao's favorite. He always makes time to come and see it every month. He didn't come today, but maybe he will come next Tuesday."
"Oh, it's a pity," Xiao Xingyu said with regret, looking at the ground with regret, "Grandpa showed it to me at the time. This is something he cares about the most." He looked up and looked directly at the little aunt, "If he knew about this, I guess..."
"What do you think will happen?" The little aunt blurted out subconsciously.
Xiao Xingyu raised his eyebrows: "I guess he will be locked up in a small dark room with the big wolfhound for two days."
When the little aunt heard this, her eyes went dark and she fainted. Lin Yin hugged her and screamed, "Little aunt! Little aunt!"
Zhang Moyan was so scared that she squatted down and hurried to check with her.
"Brother Xingyu, this child is most afraid of dogs!" Lin Yin pinched the little aunt's philtrum hard. Fortunately, after a few seconds, the little aunt woke up in a daze.
"It's not me, it's not me... I didn't fall!" As soon as the little kid woke up, he turned his head away and buried it in Lin Yin's arms. He didn't dare to cry out loud. His whole body was shaking like a sieve, and he looked as pitiful as a small animal waiting to be slaughtered.
At this point, Lin Yin probably guessed the truth of the case. She looked at the child in her arms anxiously, then looked at Zhang Moyan helplessly. Not knowing what to do, she could only coax the little aunt: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. There's no big wolf dog at home!"
The little aunt sobbed and said, "They will go and buy one!"
Crying loudly.
Zhang Moyan couldn't bear to watch, so she took a deep breath, stood up, and walked to Xiao Xingyu. She lowered her head to look at the broken pieces on the ground for a while, and stammered, "How much does this bottle cost?"
The little aunt and Lin Yin both had the meal.
Zhang Moyan didn't get an answer from Xiao Xingyu. She looked up and saw Xiao Xingyu staring at her curiously: "Why are you asking this? Did you fall?"
Zhang Moyan was stunned for a moment, then just said, "I'll pay for it."
Xiao Xingyu's eyebrows were filled with a hint of displeasure. "Zhang Moyan, this isn't a matter of just paying for it. Once the porcelain is broken, it's gone. No amount of money can make up for it."
Of course Zhang Moyan understood this principle, but now the porcelain was destroyed and money was the only thing that could make up for it.
"Are you going to admit that you broke it?" Xiao Xingyu's voice was heavy.
Zhang Moyan remained silent.
It took him a long time to react. He looked up at Xiao Xingyu with a very conflicted expression.
The two of them faced off like this for a long time. Finally, Xiao Xingyu was defeated and sighed: "You just think I'm soft-hearted!"
He put his hands on his hips and his suit was bent up behind his waist.
Before Zhang Moyan understood what he meant, he nodded at Lin Yin with one hand and said, "That fellow Jiang Dazhu has one of these Guanyin bottles, right?"
Lin Yin seemed to have been reminded. She let the dazed little aunt stand up straight and walked over. "Yes, this Langhong Guanyin vase is a pair. Before Grandpa Guo Tao went to Hong Kong to buy it, Jiang Dazhu bought the other one in the UK!"
Xiao Xingyu pondered for a moment: "Lin Yin, do me a favor, don't tell anyone about this for now, I'll go find Jiang Dazhu!"
Lin Yin immediately gasped: "Brother Xingyu, are you going to look for Jiang Dazhu?!"
Zhang Moyan's excitement at hearing about the same piece of porcelain was dampened by Lin Yin's subtle tone, and she vaguely felt that something was wrong.
Xiao Xingyu said, "That guy is just a second-generation rich man with too much money to spend. He may not be interested in the Langhong Guanyin bottle. I will go to him and he should give me some face."
"Brother Xingyu..." Lin Yin stamped her foot slightly and stopped him, "Jiang Dazhu is a gangster! He's been coveting you for a long time. Now that you've taken the initiative to find him and have something to ask of him, he's definitely going to make some really unreasonable demands on you!"
When Zhang Moyan heard this, her eyebrows raised and her eyes opened wide.
A gangster who has been coveting Xiao Xingyu for a long time and making excessive demands?
"Xiao, Teacher Xiao," Zhang Moyan's eyes trembled, and her words were stammering, "It's better not to go like this. The price is too high!"
Xiao Xingyu looked at her with a hint of concern, but in the end, he slightly bent his eyebrows and said, "I know what I'm doing. Don't worry about it. Quickly clean up this place and take the child away first."
