"Ah...ah...ee-ya...eat..."
Deng Xuan's mouth watered, but Jiang Xile had no experience feeding children and would never do it casually.
Besides, their own parents are right here. She doesn't want to meddle in other people's business. If she causes any problems, they might hold a grudge against her for life.
"Cousin, you've almost finished eating, so hurry up and take care of the baby. I don't know how to feed him!"
Deng Jingming had just let out a burp when he heard Jiang Xile's words. Although somewhat displeased, he still shouted at Lü Xiuping:
"Xiuping, hurry up and tell your son to stop eating!"
"I'll just have two more bites, it'll be ready soon!"
Jiang Xile rolled her eyes. Although the Deng family's exoneration did not bring back all their property, it shouldn't have left these people starving like this. Anyone who didn't know better would think they hadn't eaten for three days!
"Ah... Ahh..."
Unable to get any food, the child kept making a fuss. Seeing that Lü Xiuping was eating non-stop, Jiang Xile impatiently shoved the child into her arms.
"Stop eating, hurry up and comfort your son. I have to go to work this afternoon, so I'll be leaving now. You guys should go home after you finish eating!"
"Why..."
Ignoring Lü Xiuping's shouts, Jiang Xile left the restaurant directly. She really regretted bringing them here. Not only did they not have a good meal, but she also felt quite uncomfortable.
"Cousin, Xile, wait a minute, Jiang Xile!"
Jiang Xile hadn't gone far when Deng Jingming and Deng Jingyang caught up with her. Both of them had grease on their lips, and it was clear they were extremely anxious.
"Jiang Xile, wait a minute..."
Hearing the commotion, Jiang Xile chose a relatively spacious spot to stand, turned around, and asked the two people who had caught up:
"Cousin, is something the matter? I need to go back to the factory; I've been quite busy lately!"
"Cousin, why are you leaving so suddenly? We still have things to tell you!"
"Tell me? What do you want to tell me?!"
Deng Jingming looked at Deng Jingyang, and Deng Jingyang looked at Deng Jingming again. The two hesitated for a while, but in the end, Deng Jingming had no choice but to bite the bullet and say it:
“Cousin, it’s like this. You see, your cousin’s wife and I have been married for so long, but her family is still living in the mountains.”
I figured my uncle was so capable, so I'd help them get their household registration transferred to the capital as well.
This way, it will be more convenient for your sister-in-law to visit her parents' home in the future, and Xuanxuan will be more well taken care of as he grows up!
Jiang Xile sneered, then said sarcastically:
"Oh, Uncle? What uncle? Cousin, although my mother is your aunt, my father and she are not married. If you want to find your uncle, you should go find Jiang Wanmin!"
The mere mention of Jiang Wanmin stirred a surge of anger and irritation in Deng Jingming, naturally making his tone somewhat stern.
"Jiang Xile, why are you bringing him up! If it weren't for him, our Deng family wouldn't be in such a miserable state!"
Jiang Xile rolled her eyes at him casually.
"I wasn't telling the truth. Alright, you can go back now. My dad can't help you with what happened earlier."
He already went to great lengths to keep you in the capital in the first place, and now I can only say that there's nothing more I can do to help!
Deng Jingming assumed Jiang Xile was angry because of what had just happened, so he took a deep breath and softened his tone, saying:
“Cousin, we are all family after all. You are Aunt’s bloodline, and we also treat you as our own sister. I know that your brother was a little emotional just now.”
"But I didn't do it on purpose. You're all capable and competent people, so why not help us? Why are you making all sorts of excuses?"
"Deng Jingming, I made it very clear just now that neither I nor my father can help you with this matter. You can't just transfer your household registration whenever you want."
"My dad already pulled a lot of strings and used his connections to get you registered in Beijing. Do you think we can just call the shots in Beijing and send whoever we want?"
Hearing Jiang Xile's repeated refusals, Deng Jingming became unhappy and started to argue unreasonably:
"I don't care about that. Anyway, since we can settle down here, your cousin's family can too. Go back and talk to your dad, ask him to help out. He'll definitely find a way!"
Jiang Xile frowned, almost laughing in anger at Deng Jingming's self-righteous expression.
"I'll talk to my dad? Surely there'll be a way? Haha, Deng Jingming, I call you cousin, and you really think you're someone important."
If it weren't for my grandparents' sake, do you think I would bother with you? I advise you to stop daydreaming; if you don't have the ability, don't go around making promises.
No matter how much you plead, it won't change anything. Go back now, I need to go to work, I don't have time to argue with you!
When Jiang Xile pointed her finger at him and berated him like that, Deng Jingming could no longer contain his anger and became furious.
"Jiang Xile, how can you talk like that? Don't you want to end things with us anymore?!"
"So what? I don't want to be together anymore, what can you do about it! Cut ties? Go ahead, I don't care."
Don't try to threaten me with that. You'd better think carefully about what you can and can't do!
"you!"
Deng Jingming was so angry his eyes were practically blazing, but he couldn't do anything about Jiang Xile. No matter how angry he was, he knew he couldn't resort to violence. If he did, they would never be able to remain relatives again.
"Cousin, please help us out. Consider it a favor we two cousins owe you. From now on, no matter what happens, just call on us and we'll do anything for you, even if it means going through fire and water!"
Receiving a meaningful look from Deng Jingming, Deng Jingyang had no choice but to chime in:
"Yes, brother is right. Cousin, please help me out. As long as you ask, Uncle Jiang will definitely agree!"
"I've already said, we really can't help you with this. Stop bothering me and go back now. Don't come looking for me at the factory again, and even if you do, I won't come out!"
Jiang Xile turned to leave, but Deng Jingming stopped her.
"Cousin, you can't leave, otherwise we won't be able to explain it to your cousin's wife!"
"What do you mean? You're not going to imprison me!"
"How could that be? But cousin, if you don't agree, you can forget about going to work today. My brother and I will stay with you and chat here. It's quite nice!"
"Ha, trying to play the rogue trick on me? You've picked the wrong target!"
Originally, out of consideration for her maternal grandparents, Jiang Xile didn't plan to take action, but now...
"I'll ask you one more time, are you going to move aside or not!"
"No way!"
"Fine, you asked for it!"
After Jiang Xile finished speaking, without waiting for Deng Jingming's reaction, she stepped forward and threw him to the ground with an over-the-shoulder throw.
Ouch!
"Big brother...are you alright! Cousin, how could you hit me!"
"Since he's blocking my way, I can only clear the obstruction. Let me give you a piece of advice: don't come looking for me again, or next time it won't be as simple as an over-the-shoulder throw!"
Jiang Xile shook his hand and then strode away, leaving only Deng Jingming lying on the ground and Deng Jingyang looking shocked.
