He asked Xiaoxiao. But just as he finished speaking, her mom patted his head.
"That's how it should be. She's your second aunt, after all. Have you thought of the consequences if you had pushed her just now?"
"Second Brother?"
In less than a minute, she had become the shrew in the marketplace.
Xiaoxiao smiled slyly. "You're overthinking. Am I such a generous person?"
Just as Ning Erlang was sighing secretly that even chickens were more humane than the people in the old residence, he saw the fattest one shake its butt and lay an egg before them.
"What? A bowl of pickled vegetables?"
Ning Erlang was dumbfounded. He returned to his senses until he was called into the house.
"If their words are unpleasant, don't contradict them. Just listen to them casually."
If she went to the old residence at the moment, she would probably not be back for more than an hour. She could not let go of her husband's injuries.
Xiaoxiao calmly reached out and took an egg. At the same time, she nodded heavily. "Yes, I am."
However, since no one asked them to come back later and no one invited them to sit down and eat with them, they only could wait in the courtyard.
"How can it be a bowl of pickled vegetables?"
It didn't matter if she ate it or not. She was just unhappy.
Ning Erlang was indignant, angry, and aggrieved. His eyes were red.
As the representative, Old Madam Ning thought she was an old lady from a rich family, and she raised her chin.
Both of them were speechless.
"Are you angry?"
Xiaoxiao and Ning Erlang rolled their eyes and squatted outside the chicken coop to count eggs to pass the time. They took turns feeding the chickens at the old residence before. It was unknown if the chickens recognized them, but not only did they not hide, they even walked closer to them.
Taking a deep breath, they showed a surprised look together.
"I raise you guys difficultly back then. It's fine if I can't get filial piety when I'm old, but I must still be so disgusting. Do you want to anger me to death so I can be carefree?"
"They're your grandparents, after all."
Ning Dalang smiled dotingly and went to the kitchen to get a basin of hot water to change his dad's dressing.
Xiaoxiao was about to hit him.
"We deserve to be pissed off, then?"
If not for the fact that he was mentally prepared before coming, Ning Erlang felt that he would have flipped the table.
At this moment, Old Madam Ning's loud voice came from the dining room. "Hey, count the eggs at home later. Don't miss any."
Not long after, the old residence sent someone to invite them over, saying that they had a few questions to ask. Xiaoxiao and Second Brother immediately volunteered to go over on behalf of their mom.
"Are you stupid?"
Xiaoxiao was speechless.
However, she would not forget what she had to say.
Xiaoxiao was worried about Second Brother's acting skills, so the rest of the scenes belonged to her.
Old Madam Ning's curses were stuck in her throat. She narrowed her eyes. "What do you mean?"
Ning Erlang snorted. "Why did you pull me just now?"
Madam Song was worried, but even the eldest son, who had always been steady and doted on his sister, persuaded her. She looked at her husband, who had just removed half of the gauze, and then at her eldest son, who was holding hot water and could not free his hand for her. She then agreed.
"A room full of ungrateful ingrates. Why don't the heavens strike you to death!"
She looked panicked in Second Aunt Ning's direction, then quickly retracted her gaze and lowered her head to look at her toes.
Everyone in the old residence sat steadily after eating, looking like a master interrogating a criminal.
Only then did Xiaoxiao turn to Ning Erlang, but he did not want to look at her. He would rather face the wall than look at her.
Xiaoxiao nodded obediently as if she planned to listen.
Was she worried that the two of them would steal eggs?
"I heard that you guys got something good today. When I saw you sent it over, I thought it was rare. In the end, you sent a bowl of pickled vegetables? Who are you trying to send away?"
Ning Erlang gritted his teeth and complained to Xiaoxiao in a low voice, "Petty! Are we that kind of people?"
"Second Aunt can't wait to tell the village she's pregnant. If you push her, she'll immediately fall on the ground, say that her stomach hurts, and ask us to compensate."
Ning Erlang was even more depressed after hearing this. He knew that her words made sense, but he was just unhappy. f\reewebn ovel(.)com
Second Aunt Ning was a top-notch scammer.
"Back then, I shouldn't have given your dad a mouthful of milk. I should have pressed him into a bucket of feces and suffocated him to death!"
Madam Song wanted to persuade him again, but when she heard her husband's sound, she had no choice but to take care of him first.
As he spoke, he did not forget to call Ning Dalang, "Big Brother, help us to delay mom."
The family ate in the house when the two arrived at the old residence.
Ning Erlang ignored her. Xiaoxiao chuckled, "Don't tell me you think I'll let Second Aunt badmouth mom?"
Only then did Ning Erlang become interested? They stood together and began to mutter.
"No, nothing. I-I didn't say anything."
