Chapter 16: Coaxing Your Brother to Sleep is Big

In the evening, the sky was dyed red by the glow of the sunset. The old courtyard was bathed in the glow of the sunset and the kitchen was filled with smoke.

In the old and quiet kitchen, time had stood still. Only Qin Chuyang was eating with a bulging mouth.

The man's eyes were as dark as ink and his face was as cold as ice as he stared at Jiang Tang.

Jiang Tang swallowed and breathed more gently.

Qin Xiao, is this a later settlement?

But she clearly didn't run!

She covered her heart and stammered, "I don't want to run away..."

She wasn't the one running away, and she wasn't lying.

Qin Xiao didn't believe it. From the first night this woman was forcibly brought to his home, the disgust and hatred he saw in this man's eyes were not fake.

He didn't plan to care. As long as the woman ran away, he would go to the Jiang family to ask for her and get the money back.

To his surprise, the man did not run away.

Qin Chuyang was still very dependent on the other party, and the woman's eyes became clear and innocent.

It was as if he had really wronged her.

The man's eyes were like those of an extremely ferocious hungry wolf, wanting to devour her.

Jiang Tang couldn't bear the suffocating feeling.

She twisted her fingers and mumbled, "I...was just thinking about Mom and Dad before."

She said half-truthfully, "I'm telling you the truth."

"Since I returned to the Jiang family, the whole family has been guarding me and not letting me go out. They are like prisoners, afraid that I will run away. I am afraid that I will marry...marry you to leave the Jiang family and find a chance to return to the capital to find my parents."

"Why didn't you leave?"

Qin Xiao had no intention of letting her go and was ready to get to the bottom of the matter.

"I suddenly don't want to go back. They have done their best to raise me for so many years. Now I finally have my own child. I shouldn't go back and bring unnecessary trouble to everyone."

In the early stages of the policy, the adoptive father was a cadre and had to enforce it more strictly. It would be better for everyone if she didn't go back.

Qin Xiao didn't say anything else, as if he believed what she said.

Jiang Tang clasped his hands and couldn't help but speak, "You knew I wanted to run away, why didn't you refuse when the Jiang family sent me here?"

"Just run away. If you run away, I will settle accounts with the Jiang family."

The original owner was not brought back by Qin Xiao, but was forcibly sent by the Jiang family to replace Jiang Cui.

Such a ridiculous incident caused a lot of jokes in the village.

So this is what Qin Xiao thought.

She bit her lip and said, "Now that I'm not running away, has that disrupted your plan? How are you going to settle the score with them?"

Jiang Tang was a little cautious, "They were the ones who took your money, I didn't take any, you can't blame me."

Qin Xiao twitched the corners of his lips, feeling both timid and tough.

"Didn't you say you didn't take my money?"

Watching the woman nod obediently.

Qin Xiao sneered, "That money was for my wife. Since you didn't spend it, I can get it back."

Jiang Tang suddenly realized.

The guy next to him put down his bowl, and Qin Xiao stood up and cleared the dishes skillfully.

Jiang Tang stared at the man's back as he washed dishes, and thought quietly that if she said she didn't spend the money, Qin Xiao would be able to get it back for her.

The money that needs to be returned...

Can I give myself flowers?

Qin Xiao came back, and the task of giving the little guy a bath naturally fell on him.

After taking a shower, Jiang Tang went back to bed. Qin Xiao came back. He was tall and had a fierce face, just as she had imagined. But after a day of getting along, they got along fine. Jiang Tang breathed a sigh of relief.

Dudududu.

There was a knock on the door and Jiang Tang sat up straight.

I heard the man's calm voice outside the house, "She's asleep."

"Brother, sleep with sister-in-law."

There was silence outside for a while and the man didn't say anything.

"First Sun?"

Jiang Tang threw back the quilt, got out of bed, walked to the door and opened it.

Qin Chuyang and Qin Xiao were at the door.

The woman had her hair down, which fell obediently on her shoulders, and her face looked sleepy.

"Let him sleep with you." Qin Xiao reached out and pushed Qin Chuyang over.

Qin Chuyang was pushed forward, turned around and grabbed Qin Xiao's hand, looking at Qin Xiao with a smile, "Brother, you have to come too."

Qin Xiao had a cold face.

Qin Chuyang held his hand tightly.

Jiang Tang rubbed the boy's head and whispered, "Chuyang, the bed is too small. Your brother is too big to sleep in it."

The woman's words were righteous and Qin Xiao raised his eyebrows.

Qin Chuyang was confused, "But didn't brother sleep with us last night? That's enough!"

The young man fell asleep last night and didn't know that Qin Xiao didn't sleep with him.

Jiang Tang bent down and rubbed his head. "It was because your and your brother's house was leaking yesterday."

After saying that, she yawned softly, "I'm sleepy, Chuyang, why don't you sleep with your brother."

Jiang Tang yawned and turned around.

The hand was held by the little guy.

Qin Chuyang turned around awkwardly and said goodbye to his brother, "Good night, brother."

Jiang Tang turned around and closed the door in front of Qin Xiao with a smile.

The door closed in front of him, and the woman's triumphant expression as if she were a winner appeared in front of Qin Xiao, with a lively smile on her little face.

Qin Xiao curled his lips, turned back to the room, lay on the bed, and supported the back of his head with one hand.

He touched the extra space beside him with his rough hands, and recalled how the woman had just said that he was big, and his eyes became dim.

There were gaps in some places on the brick wall, and the sound insulation was very poor. I could vaguely hear the conversation between the woman and Chuyang.

"Sister-in-law, can you sing for me? Sing the song you sang yesterday."

"Well, just sing a song." It was the woman's voice, hazy and you could tell she was very sleepy.

Qin Xiao leaned on his arms, his dark eyes staring at the dim ceiling. Moonlight shone through the shabby transparent windows, and in his ears was the soft and ethereal singing of a woman.

"My sweet baby, I'll give you some sweetness so you can sleep well tonight..."

"Baaaaaaa, my baby, you have someone to accompany you the whole time. Oh my baby, let me know that you are the most beautiful."

It was quiet outside the house. The girl's singing seemed to weave a beautiful dream. Qin Xiao stared at the ceiling with his eyes gradually closing, but the singing was still lingering in his ears.

—

The next day, Jiang Tang got up early, pushed the door open, stretched his waist hard, covered his lips with his hands, yawned softly, and walked towards the bedroom.

Unexpectedly, I saw a tall figure in the bathroom before I even entered.

She was slightly stunned, staring at the spoon in the man's hand and blinked.

Qin Xiao was cooking porridge and put three eggs in it. For some reason he noticed Jiang Tang the moment she left the house. He noticed that the girl was stretching lazily, revealing her fair and tender waist, with tears in her dark eyes.

Jiang Tang tilted his head to look at the eggs in the pot and couldn't help asking, "Qin Xiao, have you washed the eggs?"

Is it really possible to cook the porridge with the shell?

Jiang Tang's face wrinkled into a ball.

Are you complaining that he didn't do it cleanly? Qin Xiao sneered, "No."

In fact, he had already washed it before cooking, but seeing the woman's nervous look, he changed his mind for some reason.

Sure enough, I saw her eyes widened with shock, then she pouted her lips in dissatisfaction but didn't dare to say anything, her courage was as small as a bean.

Qin Xiao prepared the meal and called Qin Chuyang.

After washing up, Qin Chuyang trotted into the kitchen. Seeing the porridge and eggs on the table, he widened his eyes in surprise, "Brother, there are eggs!"

Qin Xiao sat opposite him and said in a deep voice, "Well, let's eat."

He had already peeled the eggs and put them in Qin Chuyang's bowl.

Jiang Tang sat on the other side, wrinkled her nose, tilted her head and whispered to Qin Chuyang, "Chuyang, your brother cooked eggs and porridge together, and didn't wash the eggs, so the porridge is not clean."

The girl's voice was very low. Qin Xiao heard it, raised his eyebrows and said nothing.

Qin Chuyang heard what his sister-in-law said, and his big black grape eyes smiled slyly. He glanced at his expressionless brother, covered his mouth and turned to Jiang Tang, and whispered, "Sister-in-law, my brother must have washed it clean, he lied to you."

The young man said this, and Jiang Tang's eyes widened in surprise. She looked at the man who was eating breakfast calmly beside her in disbelief. He lied to her? !

Jiang Tang suddenly became bolder and stared at the man. Sure enough, he saw a smile between his brows.

!!!

It turned out that he lied to her.

How can Qin Xiao be so vicious, evil, and a liar!

Qin Chuyang covered his mouth and laughed, "Sister-in-law, you are so stupid. You cooked the eggs with porridge. How can you not wash them thoroughly?"

Jiang Tang snorted and took a big bite of the egg in his hand, as if he thought it was a wicked man and wanted to bite him to death.

She knew that this was unreasonable, but she was really scared when she saw Aunt Tian washing dishes like that last time at her house.

They had originally planned to go to Jiang's house after breakfast, but unexpectedly, before they arrived, members of Jiang's family came in early in the morning.

Bang bang bang!

The door that Qin Xiao had just repaired yesterday was slammed loudly, and the courtyard door was shaking. From outside the courtyard wall, He Sufen's sharp and piercing shouts were heard.

"Open the door! Jiang Tang, you damned little bitch, open the door for me!"

"Damn it, Qin Xiao is back, come out here!"

Jiang Tang was sitting in the yard digesting his food. When he heard the shouting and cursing outside the door, he immediately stood up and ran to the kitchen, hiding next to the man who was washing dishes.

Qin Chuyang ran to Jiang Tang with his short legs, held her hand with his little hand, and stared at the yard with a serious face.

Qin Xiao glanced at the frightened woman, and her brother who was trying to block the woman with his small body, and the corners of his lips twitched.

Regardless of the loud cursing outside, he only focused on the work at hand until he washed the dishes and put them in the cupboard.

She wiped her hands slowly, took her apron, and walked out.

Jiang Tang held Qin Chuyang's shoulders, and the two of them, big and small, followed closely behind Qin Xiao.

Qin Xiao glanced at the little tail behind him, said nothing, stood in front of the gate, raised one hand slightly and opened the gate with the other hand, then slightly turned sideways.

A strong body fell directly in, accompanied by a scream like a pig being slaughtered.

Jiang Tang looked at He Sufen who was lying on the ground and screaming, and patted her chest gently with her small hands. She was so scared that her heart was trembling with fear at how loud she screamed.

Qin Xiaoyu glanced over and a smile appeared in his eyes, but when he saw the woman lying on the ground, his face turned cold.

In addition to He Sufen, there was a man standing at the door. His face was bruised and swollen, making it unrecognizable. He stared at Qin Xiao with a pair of eyes filled with malice and hatred.
