Chapter 18 Bug Race



After Xiao Cunyu finished speaking, he looked at Xiong with an extremely admiring look.

There seemed to be a dazzling light shining in those eyes, which could melt people's hearts.

She is only sixteen years old now, at the prime of her life, full of vigor and vitality. She is so young and energetic that she is so pitiful that even Xiong almost couldn't bear it. Her mind was shaken and her eyelids twitched twice.

"Aunt, it's all my and my brother's and my fault. Let's go back to our hometown!" Dong Qiaoxin spoke in time, looking even more pitiful than Xiao Cunyu.

Xiao Cunyu scratched his ears, sat down, and fiddled with the thing in his hand. "Tsk, what a great pen! How much silver would it cost to buy it?"

"Aunt... I don't know how we offended my seventh cousin. My younger brother is only ten years old. How could he endure such great suffering? He lay on the bed crying in pain all day today. If my mother knew about this, she would definitely blame me for not taking good care of my younger brother..." Dong Qiaoxin was extremely sad.

When talking about her deceased mother, Xiong thought of her half-sister.

Even though he was born out of wedlock, she had watched him grow up...

Now that people have left and the Dong family no longer cares about these two children, if she doesn't take care of them, the two children will suffer a lot.

"How could you have such a heavy heart? It's just a quarrel between children. Yu Ge'er is not a cruel and vicious child. He didn't intend to drive you away. You can stay here peacefully. I have already informed your father. He is willing to let you find a good husband in the capital. I will check it out for you when the time comes. Your life will definitely get better and better. As for Jin Ming..."

Xiong was also a little disappointed. "This child is already ten years old, yet he still bothers the Master. It's indeed wrong of him, but it's fine as long as he admits his mistakes and corrects them. Apologize to Master Liang sincerely, and your cousin won't be angry with him anymore."

These words made Dong Qiaoxin furious.

Yes, her brother shouldn’t have teased the teacher, but Xiao Cunyu was not much better!

They are both living under someone else's roof, but his younger brother is ten years old and ignorant, but Xiao Cunyu is sixteen years old and still young?

No one is so biased.

"I apologized to my cousin this morning, but... he still looked very angry. I know it was my fault, and I can't blame my cousin..." Dong Qiaoxin lowered her head.

The hands were tightly grasping the handkerchief, and the fingertips were slightly blue.

"Your eldest cousin is just like that, you know that." Xiong laughed, "Brother Yu, your uncle and eldest brother are always busy and away from home. You are the only capable man in the family. The burden of taking care of guests should be shouldered by you. Be nicer to Jin Ming in the future!"

"Hey! Aunt, whatever you say is what I will do!" Xiao Cunyu raised his eyebrows and said to Dong Jinming, "My cousin likes to play with insects. Why don't I take him out tomorrow and spend some money to ask farmers to catch some big ones. I can also invite the playful young men in Beijing to come along and let these insects race..."

The more Xiao Cunyu talked, the more interesting it became. He even became excited: "Let's win their money!"

"Bang!" Xiong's teacup hit the table.

Xiao Cunyu was so frightened that his heart skipped a beat: "How about asking my eldest cousin to play with us?"

"You little bastard!" Xiong clutched her chest in anger. "How could you possibly think of that? I asked you to teach him well, but who told you to think about gambling?!"

"Aunt, why are you angry? Don't be angry. I see that the dark circles under your eyes mean you must be having nightmares often. If you get angry, it will get worse, and then it will be my fault!" Xiao Cunyu's words sounded nice, but he still deserved a beating.
