Although Xia Mian was not good at guessing people's minds, she knew that these two beasts had evil hearts, so she should think of everything in the worst way. These two people must be thinking of dealing with her.
She ignored Huang Xiaojuan and took Xiaofeng to the bathroom to wash up. Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of her red frizzy hair in the mirror, which made her eyes hurt. She had to deal with her hair today no matter what! She wanted to continue being her little fairy.
After washing up, Xia Mian went straight to the refrigerator.
Huang Xiaojuan, who had treated them as invisible, finally spoke up, "What are you going to do?"
Xia Mian took out the four remaining eggs and said, "Cooking, what's your business?"
Huang Xiaojuan saw that she still dared to take so many eggs and sneered, "Of course I care! Put them down."
"Aren't you going to sue me?" Huang Xiaojuan simply stood up and grabbed it, "If you have the guts, don't eat my food!"
Xia Mian raised her foot directly. Huang Xiaojuan stopped walking reflexively and said angrily, "You dare to hit me again?"
"Why not?" Xia Mian raised her chin. "You want to try?"
Huang Xiaojuan certainly didn't dare to try. Xia Mian impatiently walked around her and headed for the kitchen. "I'm suing you because you're committing child abuse. What does that have to do with us eating?"
"Besides, this house was bought with my sister's compensation. Whether it belongs to your family is still unclear."
Huang Xiaojuan's voice suddenly rose eight degrees when she heard her bring up the matter again. "I borrowed the money from my parents. It has nothing to do with your sister's compensation. Don't let your imagination run wild!"
Hei Guo had already thought it over for Xia Mian. "You said that, don't you just want to occupy our house? You are so young, but you have bad intentions. We will send you back in two days!"
"Whatever." Xia Mian rolled her eyes. When she passed by the dining table, she saw a bottle of milk on the table, half full, so she took it directly to the kitchen.
"That's Xuanxuan's!" Huang Xiaojuan said angrily, "Do you want to be kicked out right now?"
Xia Mian put the eggs and milk on the chopping board, looked at Huang Xiaojuan's exasperated expression and said with a smile, "I have to ask you this. If you let me stay here and study hard, then I won't sue you for abuse."
"But if you kick me out right away, I can't go to school anyway, and I can use the tuition money to hire a lawyer. But then it won't just be a case of child abuse. I'll also sue you for murder."
Xia Mian took advantage of Huang Xiaojuan's lack of understanding and lied to her in a relaxed tone, "It might not be easy to investigate a case from four years ago, but you and Zhang Qiming are criminal suspects. You'll have to stay in prison for as long as the investigation lasts..."
"You know for yourself whether what I said yesterday is true or not. Ordinary people might not bother to inquire about it, but the police will investigate it seriously. By then, even if you are released from prison, your past will be thoroughly investigated."
"Even considering the Huang family's situation, it will be absolutely impossible for you to pretend to be stupid by then."
Huang Xiaojuan's face changed, and for a moment she felt that Xia Mian seemed to have seen through their plan.
Looking at her ugly face, Xia Mian knew that she had grasped his weakness. She didn't expect that Huang Xiaojuan cared so much about her family background.
She said seriously, "So, are you going to kick me out?"
Huang Xiaojuan gritted her teeth for a long time before finally coming up with something. "If you sue me, I'll sue you too. The assault you committed yesterday constituted minor injuries. Minors can't go to jail, but they'll still go to juvenile detention!"
Xia Mian sneered, "Did the police give you a note for a medical examination yesterday? Your injuries today were all caused by Zhang Qiming, right? You screamed so miserably yesterday, everyone in the building heard you. Don't slander a good person."
Huang Xiaojuan was so angry that she clenched her fists. After a long while, she couldn't find anything that could threaten Xia Mian, so she could only drag Xuanxuan back to the bedroom angrily.
My ears are finally quiet, and Xia Mian concentrates on cooking.
She mixed milk, eggs and flour into a paste, intending to make a milk and egg omelet for Xiao Feng. After a while, a rich aroma wafted over. Xiao Feng couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and his stomach was rumbling.
Xia Mian carefully tore off a piece and handed it to him, "Be careful of the heat. Once you finish this, you can eat the other half directly."
When Xiao Feng was eating, the bedroom door suddenly opened. It turned out that the fragrance was spreading out. Xuan Xuan came over. He was not as cautious as Xiao Feng, and he was used to bullying Xiao Feng. He directly grabbed it, "You bastard, this is mine!"
Xia Mian pushed his hand away and looked at Huang Xiaojuan who was standing at the bedroom door, "Are you sure you don't care about your son?"
"You dare to hit him?" Huang Xiaojuan raised her eyebrows.
Huang Xiaojuan hadn't won the argument before, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt suffocated. She spent a long time thinking about how to deal with Xia Mian, and now she had a plan in mind. Didn't Xia Mian like to make trouble? Then let her make trouble!
Worried that the effect wouldn't be enough, she went straight over and picked up an omelet Xia Mian had just made and stuffed it into Xuanxuan's mouth. "That milk originally belonged to us, Xuanxuan, and the eggs are also ours. Don't even think about having a bite!"
She flung the door open. The security door couldn't block out the noise from outside. It was rush hour in the building, and people were coming and going. Huang Xiaojuan shouted, "Go ahead and hit him if you dare! Bullying a child is nothing!"
Xia Mian rolled her eyes. She was so hungry that she didn't have the energy to argue with her. She simply picked up Xiao Feng and went out.
Huang Xiaojuan was stunned for a moment, a little confused by Xia Mian's sudden patience. Until she saw her knocking on the door opposite, she thought she was about to complain again. Huang Xiaojuan cleared her throat and planned to cry her heart out.
However, across from her, Xia Mian put on a helpless look at Old Lady Liu who opened the door, "Aunt Liu, I remember your Zhuangzhuang also ordered milk, right?"
"I ordered it, what's wrong?"
Xia Mian said, "Let me lend you a bottle of milk for Zhuangzhuang first, and two eggs. I'll return them this morning when I go out and buy some." At this point, he touched Xiao Feng's head distressedly and said, "Yesterday the doctor said the child is severely malnourished and it's best for him to eat more eggs and milk to supplement his nutrition."
When Old Lady Liu looked over, she saw Xuanxuan across from her holding something and eating it with relish, while Xiaofeng's stomach was rumbling.
She was immediately furious and shouted at the Zhang family, "Xiao Huang, are you really going to be stubborn? Someone from the Women's Affairs Office of the Union came to ask yesterday if your Xiao Zhang is currently being evaluated for excellence."
Huang Xiaojuan didn't expect that Xia Mian, who was rushing around recklessly, was actually trying to gain sympathy. All the strategies she had prepared were useless, and she was suddenly confused.
Seeing her staring at Xia Mian with hatred, Old Lady Liu angrily said, "Xiao Feng is malnourished, and you won't let him eat? You don't dare to fight anymore, and you want to starve the child to death, right?"
After what happened yesterday, everyone upstairs and downstairs was very concerned about Xiao Feng. When Mrs. Liu spoke loudly, many people, except those who were in a hurry to go to work, stuck their heads out to see what was going on. Even the gray-haired Teacher Mi came up the stairs, holding on to the stairs and asked, "What's going on?"
Before Xia Mian could say anything, Old Lady Liu said, "Xiao Feng is hungry, Xia Mian came to borrow milk and eggs from me, but the guy opposite is eating so much that he's full."
Huang Xiaojuan reacted and hurriedly said, "How could I stop them from eating? She's just deliberately trying to humiliate me! She's picking on me this early in the morning, trying to use the neighbors as a weapon to punish me."
When everyone heard this, they were a little hesitant.
Xia Mian sneered, "You want us to eat? Then take out something else to eat, go get it now! If you can take out a bowl of porridge, I'll admit that I did it on purpose!"
Huang Xiaojuan naturally couldn't take it out. She had decided to get rid of Xia Mian yesterday, so naturally she didn't leave him a single bite of food today.
And there was Xuanxuan, the assist. Although he didn't understand reason, he knew how to act according to the adults' attitude. At this moment, he came out from under his mother's arm, holding an egg roll and eating it with relish, and proudly shook it at Xiaofeng, "These are all mine, the bastard has none!"
Everyone looked at Huang Xiaojuan with mockery and disgust. A fifth-grade kid upstairs put the egg in Xiaofeng's hand and said, "Brother, eat first. Mom said children can't go hungry."
Xiao Feng glanced at Xia Mian, and Xia Mian taught him, "Thank you, sister!"
Xiao Feng said in a baby voice, "Thank you, sister." He cleaned up neatly today and was very lovable.
He was really hungry at this time. Although the boiled eggs had no taste, they made him swallow his saliva continuously.
Everyone was heartbroken, some even scolded him bluntly, "Xiao Huang, have you lost all your dignity? Not only did you not feed the child, but you also framed Xiao Xia. You're really capable of that."
"Alas, I used to think she was good at speaking, but now I know she's the worst at twisting right and wrong."
Mrs. Liu's daughter-in-law, Li Xinmei, said to Xia Mian, "We are eating too. Let Xiaofeng and Zhuangzhuang eat together. Don't let the children go hungry."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Mian's stomach rumbled in response. She scratched her head awkwardly and pushed Xiao Feng, saying, "Go ahead and have dinner with Brother Zhuangzhuang. Auntie will come find you later."
Old Mrs. Liu felt distressed. This child always took care of the younger one. With Huang Xiaojuan's behavior, she didn't know how to treat her. "You should go eat with us too. Eat first, and we can talk about other things later!"
"Alas, I'm not saying anything." Sister Wang looked up from upstairs and said to Huang Xiaojuan, "You're also a mother, aren't you afraid of retribution for doing this?"
"There will definitely be retribution. Xuanxuan is so young, isn't it obvious that he has already been corrupted? From now on, keep the children away from his Xuanxuan."
Huang Xiaojuan was furious when she heard this. Old Lady Liu pointed at her from a distance and said, "I'll go find the women's director right away. I don't believe I can't cure you!"
"No, I really didn't mean to stop her from eating," Huang Xiaojuan said anxiously, her mind working a little slowly. "She needs four eggs to cook a meal and also drinks Xuanxuan's milk. I just said a few words..."
"Oh, Xuanxuan's milk, you really have never treated Xiaofeng as a human being, right? Xiaofeng can't even touch the milk at home?"
"What's wrong with four eggs? The 40,000 or 50,000 yuan compensation you took from her sister isn't enough for her to eat an egg?"
When someone brought up the issue of compensation, Huang Xiaojuan immediately shrieked in defense, "I already said the money was borrowed from my parents! There's no such thing as compensation! I already said it was this girl who was talking nonsense. Why do you believe this thug and not me?!"
Xia Mian spoke loudly, "Dear uncles, aunts and cousins, thank you for today, but please don't talk about her anymore. Please listen to me."
As soon as she spoke, everyone fell silent.
"As for me, I don't want to argue with her anymore. My ex-brother-in-law also told me yesterday that I have to go to school eventually, and I still won't be able to take care of Xiaofeng after I go to school. If I anger her now, Xiaofeng will be the one who suffers in the end."
At this point, she sighed, "He also said that he would use money to find connections to get me into Huagang No. 1 Middle School. Huagang No. 1 Middle School is close, which is convenient for me to go to school every day. Then I can come back every day to look after Xiaofeng and let me not get too upset with Huang Xiaojuan, so I don't plan to sue her."
It is said that old people become more cunning. When Mrs. Liu and Teacher Mi heard this, they knew there was nothing they didn't understand. This was a combination of intimidation and inducement to fool the little kid Xia Mian.
From Zhang Qiming's point of view, if he doesn't want to divorce Huang Xiaojuan, there is certainly nothing wrong with doing so. But it still makes people feel chilling to hear it. He obviously does not intend to pursue the matter of Huang Xiaojuan abusing Xiaofeng.
Old Lady Liu cursed, "Bah! I thought Zhang Qiming had taught me a lesson yesterday, but how dare he go back to his old ways today? It turns out he's so confident!"
"After all, she's a stolen woman," one man joked, "I thought Zhang Qiming was a good person, but I didn't expect him to be so confused."
Huang Xiaojuan couldn't help getting anxious when she saw the topic turned to Zhang Qiming again. She could be scolded, but Zhang Qiming's reputation could not be ruined.
As expected, some people were just looking for fun, "Xia Mian, you're a silly child. Your ex-brother-in-law is just trying to trick you. If you don't tell her, they might just get worse. Don't be fooled by these two black-hearted people..."
Huang Xiaojuan looked at Xia Mian secretly raising the corner of his lips towards her, and couldn't help but feel angry. It was obvious that Xia Mian didn't need to threaten her by suing, but now she said this, as if she was threatening Xia Mian not to sue!
What a distortion of the truth!
