Jiang felt sorry for her son but couldn't help scolding him. Even now, when Cheng Yue and the others had moved the things back and started cleaning, she was still scolding him.
Cheng Wu held the child with a dejected look on his face, letting his parents scold him.
Cheng Yue might be the only one in the family who knew that his second brother had probably gone to Wei County to look for news about his second sister-in-law, but at this moment Cheng Wu obviously didn't want to talk.
"Who are you trying to show off to? If you're unhappy, then don't eat anything grown in my fields! Don't let your mother cook for you!"
"You're running around all day, neglecting your children and your parents. I think you might as well not come back. You look like someone owes you two hundred and fifty thousand. Who are you going to bother by coming back?"
"The wife ran away. Did our family mistreat her or what? Who are you showing this to?"
"When I was your age, I had to support a whole family. Look at you..."
“…”
Cheng Shun was sitting opposite Cheng Wu and he never stopped talking.
Jiang would also interject a few words from time to time.
Cheng Wen and Gu Xuelan were washing dishes together. They took the plates used to hold the skewers on their stall home to wash.
Cheng Jinyan and Cheng Jinxing went back to their room, fearing that the fight between their grandparents would spread to them.
"Dad, my second brother went to work, not to play. Why are you scolding him?"
Cheng Yue didn't notice Gu Xuelan winking at her, but in the end she couldn't help but say a few words to help Cheng Wu.
"What's your business? Are you just standing there with nothing to do? Then go help your mother, or your eldest brother and his wife!"
Cheng Shun glared at Cheng Yue and yelled.
"father!"
Cheng Yue sat down next to Cheng Shun with a smile.
"Look, even though you're scolding your second brother, you still feel bad for him not having a meal, right? Don't be so harsh on your words but kind on your heart. We brothers and sisters all know that you care about us!"
Cheng Yue said.
"What a pity! If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten! Why should my Cheng family's food be fed to this useless thing? Old woman, stop it, you are not allowed to cook for him!"
Cheng Shun was so angry that his face turned red, and he told Jiang not to do it anymore.
"Come on, old man, Fatty is right. You should stop swearing. Ah Wu just came back from Wei County, and his beard has grown back. He must not have eaten or drunk well these past two days!"
Jiang rolled her eyes at Cheng Shun and said.
"Daddy, let me tell you something! I want to go out and play tomorrow. Do you think our stall is still open?"
When Cheng Shun was about to start scolding again, Cheng Shun quickly took his arm and changed the subject.
He couldn't continue talking about Cheng Wu, otherwise his second brother might not be able to eat tonight.
Her second brother was kicked out the night before.
"Go play? Where to play?"
Cheng Shun's attention was indeed diverted.
"Hasn't Jinyan finished his exams? He wants to go to the Wanfo Temple to worship Buddha. I'm worried about him being alone, so I'm going with him! I'll also bring Shanshui and Mingzhu with me. Come back the day after tomorrow, okay?"
Cheng Yue thought of a good excuse.
When she went out with Cheng Jinyan and her niece, she would take Mingzhu and Shanshui with her. This would not make Cheng Shun think that Cheng Jinyan wanted to take the little girl out to play, nor would it make Cheng Shun think that she wanted to play with Shanshui.
Kill two birds with one stone!
"Jin Yan wants to go! Well, that's fine. I'm really worried about him being alone, so you can come along!"
Cheng Shun thought about it, felt that Cheng Yue was right, nodded and said.
