Lu Li reluctantly handed the child back to Xiang Man. Strangely enough, the child calmed down instantly when he was back in her arms.
Although Xiang Man didn't say anything, her face showed: Look what I just said.
Lu Li felt embarrassed and frowned, "What's wrong with the child? Why is he crying all the time?"
Xiang Man glanced at Aunt Liu and lowered his head, "No, nothing."
Chen Hongjiang's eyes were sharp. "Speak."
Xiang Man bit her lip, tears welling up in her eyes. "The child was frightened. Yes, it was Aunt Liu who frightened him."
"You're talking nonsense!" Aunt Liu raised her voice. "It's obviously you who didn't raise the child well, why are you blaming me?"
Seeing Aunt Liu being so arrogant, Chen Hongjiang frowned and said, "What are you yelling about? Don't you know the child will be scared?"
Aunt Liu was used to bullying Xiang Man, and she got carried away for a moment and quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, sir, I was too anxious."
Chen Hongjiang ignored her and said, "You go ahead."
Xiang Man didn't dare look at anyone, her eyes darting around. "It's nothing, actually. It's just that Aunt Liu pushed the door open yesterday, and I said something wrong. I told her to knock on the door next time she came in..." At this point, she looked like she had done something wrong. "I wasn't being pretentious on purpose. I just thought the baby might be scared in my room."
Seeing her trying so hard to explain, anyone with a discerning eye could tell how much injustice she had suffered.
Chen Hongjiang frowned, "Go on."
Xiang Man lowered her head again. "Aunt Liu said I was too pretentious. She's been in this house for over twenty years, and there's no place she can't enter. She was so angry that she slammed the door and left. The baby was scared and kept crying. Even when Junjie came later, the baby kept crying. And just now, when Aunt Liu came in and called me, her voice was a little loud, and the baby woke up and kept crying. I had to hold him and comfort him, so I didn't come over."
Chen Hongjiang turned to look at Aunt Liu, "Xiang Man wanted to take care of the children, why do you say she deliberately didn't come?"
Aunt Liu was still quibbling, "I didn't do that. She was the one who was talking nonsense, not me."
Chen Hongjiang got angry and pointed at Xiang Man who was holding the child. "Didn't you see it yourself? The child started crying non-stop as soon as she left him. Do babies lie?"
Aunt Liu looked at Lu Li in panic, hoping that she could speak for herself. Lu Li did not disappoint her and spoke directly, "Hong Jiang, these are just trivial matters. Don't make a fuss about them."
