"Tangtang, who bought you this junk book? Was it your fifth brother? You're not allowed to read it anymore."
Aunt Chi scolded him with a dark face.
What is all this nonsense?
Cheng Weibai became even more enraged, abandoning all pretense of being dashing and debonair. He immediately closed his fan and bared his teeth as he roared at Chi Tang.
"Look at my innocent appearance, do you think I'm the kind of person who would abuse people? Besides, do you think I'm that stupid? To buy two girls in public and then take them back to abuse them?"
This little girl is quite pretty, but why does she have such a mean mouth!
"If you don't want to ruin it, why don't you give it to me?"
"No, what do you mean I have to give it to you just because I don't want to ruin it? Why should I?"
"Oh, if you won't give it to me, I'll cry. Waaaaah..."
Cheng Weibai: ...
The twelve-year-old boy's first encounter with such an "unusual" little girl left him with considerable psychological trauma.
What kind of people are these?
"Then go ahead and cry. If you can cry a snot bubble out of your nose, I'll agree to let you have it."
This time, Chi Tang was speechless.
Who is this person?
Aunt Chi, though puzzled, quietly tugged at her daughter and whispered, "Chi Tang, you already have two maids serving you, so don't insist on fighting over them."
"Mother, I'm worried that these two young ladies will be bullied if they're bought as maids. Anyway, I need help, so please let me buy them."
"But the young master won't budge..."
Just as Aunt Chi was hesitating, a young boy's voice suddenly rang out.
"Cheng Weibai, if your mother knew you bought two women, I wonder if you'd be forced to kneel or get beaten up?"
Upon hearing this sound, Chi Tang suddenly looked up.
Three and a half years can change a person a lot.
Even after several years, her stunningly beautiful, aloof face and her breathtaking violet eyes still make her instantly recognizable.
"daughter in law!"
Chi Tang shouted excitedly, stood on the carriage shaft, and waved to Huo Chen.
The smile on his lips was so radiant, and he waved frantically, extremely excited.
Huo Chen tightened his grip on the reins, barely managing to control his urge to go any further.
Her eyes shone brightly, filled with longing, all of which culminated in one sentence:
"I'm back."
There was no deliberate intimacy, nor any overly excited expression.
A simple "I'm back" was enough to express all his feelings.
"Auntie!"
Just as the two of them were looking at each other, Chi Shuxing, who was now twelve years old and had obviously grown taller and stronger, dismounted, ran over, picked up Chi Tang, tossed her up and caught her again.
"Ahhh!"
Chi Tang screamed in fright, but Xingxing thought her aunt was excited and tossed the toss several more times.
Aunt Chi was so frightened that her face turned pale: "Xingxing, quickly put your little aunt down."
"Okay."
Xingxing caught Chitang steadily and put her down. Just as she was about to bow to her grandmother, she saw her dizzy little aunt sit down on the ground with a thud.
That's not all; he was lying sprawled on the ground, completely swaying from side to side.
"Hahaha."
Cheng Weibai burst out laughing.
He was laughing so hard he almost died.
That's so stupid.
As she was laughing, she suddenly felt a chill on the back of her neck. Looking around, she saw Huo Chenyi's cold eyes, which startled her so much that she stopped laughing abruptly.
This guy is getting scarier and scarier.
“Xingxing, you’ve grown so tall and tanned, but you’ve also become strong.” Aunt Chi got off the carriage, hugged her grandson, and looked him over from all angles.
They only stopped when they were sure there wasn't a single scratch on their body.
Then he let Xingxing go, walked up to Huo Chenyi's horse, and said, "Chenyi, get down, let me take a look."
"You old woman, Huo Chenyi is the most rebellious person, how could he possibly listen to..."
Before he could finish speaking, Cheng Weibai's eyes widened as he watched Huo Chenyi obediently dismount and stand before Aunt Chi, letting her touch and look at him all over.
"Why aren't you gaining weight? You're so skinny, it won't do. When you come to your aunt's house, I'll cook you something delicious to help you recover, and also to help with your injury..."
Aunt Chi looked at Huo Chenyi's wrist and saw a particularly noticeable scar about an inch above it.
Judging from the looks of it, the injury must have occurred this year.
"It's so dangerous to be injured here! Have you taken good care of yourself? What happened? How could someone so young get injured like this?"
Aunt Chi's tears fell down her cheeks.
Can a child this young go to war? How did he get injured?
Upon hearing this, Chi Tang ran over, stood on tiptoe, and grabbed Aunt Chi's hand, anxiously saying, "Let me see, let me see."
Huo Chenyi: "Auntie is fine, she's all healed. It's just that the scar looks scary."
"Nonsense, do you think I'm stupid? This is clearly..."
"How can you say you're fine? Didn't you take good care of your injury when you were injured? Do you know your body isn't strong? You need to take good care of yourself. You can't do this. In a bit, I'll... In a bit, you'll come with me to the carriage."
Chi Tang almost let it slip.
She had just taken her pulse and it was clear that her daughter-in-law's health problems stemmed from overwork and constant activity after her injury.
How could someone so young have health problems that can develop lasting health issues?
Huo Chenyi, who had intended to say that he felt no pain, felt a warmth in his heart from Aunt Chi and Chi Tang's concern, swallowed all his words, and obediently nodded.
"Okay, I understand."
"Alright, let's not stay on the street anymore. Let's find somewhere to wait for a while," Old Man Chi said, coming closer.
