Chapter 101 Can I Have a Word With You
Ma Yan rolled her eyes at her husband. “Yun Lin, don’t mount on the high horse in front of me. You’d better mind your own business. Let me tell you, it’s useless to put this money in the child’s hands. Why don’t you give it to us adults? We can even keep it for him. In the future, when he gets married and starts a family, he will need the money!”
Ma Yan made herself seem considerate for Yun Qiao’s sake.
“Boy, you are already 20-years-old this year. It will be a waste of time to study. You can just live by a few words. In another two years, mom will find you a good girl. You will be able to live happily ever after then.”
“You shouldn’t trouble yourself, mum.” Yun Qiao said coldly.
“Big brother, don’t worry. I’ll definitely study hard in the future. When the time comes, I’ll take care of you.”
Yun Zhu did not forget to sprinkle some salt on Yun Qiao’s wound. Yun Xi looked at her little brother and sighed in her heart once again.
She was really fortunate to have Yun Yang, and she did not know what kind of virtue she had accumulated in her previous life to have a little brother like him.
“Mom, let’s go back. I don’t want to stay here any longer.”
Seeing that the matter had been settled, Yun Zhu held Ma Yan’s hand and urged her to hurry home.
Every second that Yun Zhu stayed here reminded him of the humiliation just now. He did not want to experience such helplessness again. Children would always choose to escape realities.
“Alright, mom will bring you home now.”
Ma Yan looked at Yun Zhu, and she did not want to stay any longer either. She turned around and was prepared to leave.
“Wait.” Yun Xi looked at Ma Yan and called out to her.
“You really don’t know shame. You even want to take your own son’s money for yourself. Did you not hear what he said? He said he doesn’t want you to interfere with his matters. Why don’t you return all the money to Yun Qiao?”
Yun Xi recalled that Yun Qiao had helped her many times before. She decided to stop Ma Yan and spoke up for Yun Qiao.
“Who do you think you are? You’re just an outsider, what right do you have to lecture me? This money belongs to my son, so what if I want to take his money? What does it have to do with you? You better mind your own business.”
When Ma Yan Heard Yun Xi’s words, she immediately became angry and pointed at Yun Xi as she scolded her.
Yun Xi was very helpless, but Ma Yan’s words were not wrong. That was her son, and Yun Xi indeed had no right to interfere.
Seeing Yunxi become speechless after the scolding, Ma Yan felt overjoyed. She had also released some anger that she had been holding back just now.
“Alright, Mom. Stop talking. Let’s go.”
Yun Zhu was afraid that if Ma Yan and Yun Xi quarreled, his mother might suffer more. Hence, he hurriedly pulled Ma Yan’s hand and walked out.
“Sister, let’s go too. There’s no need to be angry with them.” Yun Yang sensibly held Yun Xi’s hand and comforted her.
“Okay, let’s go home.”
Yun Xi smiled and patted her younger brother’s head.
The few of them walked out of the village chief’s house. Ma Yan and Yun Zhu walked in the front while Yun Lin followed behind her.
Yun Yang and the Yun Xi walked side by side. Yun Xi turned her head to look at Yun Qiao.
Yun Qiao followed the three people in front of him with a desolate expression. It was as if the three people in front of him were a family, while he was just a bystander.
“Yun Yang, I have something to discuss with you. Will you agree to it?”
Yun Xi asked for Yun Yang’s opinion.
“Sister, if there’s anything, just say it.”
Yunyang nodded his head sensibly.
“I want to have a word with Yun Qiao. Yun Yang, go home and wait for me, okay?”
Yun Xi’s attitude towards Yun Yang was always the most gentle.
“Yes, okay. Then I’ll go back and wait for your good news.”
Yun Yang nodded obediently and ran towards his house.
Yun Qiao looked up and saw the young boy running back home. A gratified and bitter smile appeared on his face. Perhaps only when he was young could he have such a happy time with Yun Zhu.
He was unsure when he started becoming a little unfamiliar with Yun Zhu. He had never seen Yun Zhu smile like that in a long time, nor had he walked into Yun Zhu’s heart.
“Cousin, wait a minute.”
