Chapter 200 I'm Good at Teaching People a Lesson
Seeing that he had successfully shifted the blame, He Yunzhou glanced at He Jing as if watching a good show and readily replied, "Of course, it's absolutely true!"
His ulterior motives were written all over his face, hehehe.
He couldn't wait to see the stern-faced He Jing get his comeuppance; it would be very satisfying!
Unexpectedly, the next second, Ye Xiaoxiao jumped up and hit himself hard on the head with the picture book.
"Ouch!" He Yunzhou immediately covered his head, looking at Ye Xiaoxiao in disbelief.
"Sister-in-law, why did you hit me?"
"That's exactly what I'm going to do! You're trying to corrupt our Jing!"
After saying that, Ye Xiaoxiao knocked a few more times.
Seeing this, He Jing's eyes crinkled into a smile. Xiao Xiao believed him! That was enough!
He stepped forward and gently took Ye Xiaoxiao's hand: "Xiaoxiao, I'm better at disciplining people, just leave it to me, you go and rest over there."
Ye Xiaoxiao paused for a moment, then said, "Okay!"
As she turned around, she discreetly peeked through a small corner of her eye.
Stimulate!
He Yunzhou saw He Jing's smiling face suddenly darken, and knew something was wrong, so he immediately scurried three zhang away.
My life is over!
"Auntie, help!"
“Calling for your mother won’t help!” He Jing leaped into the air and swung his iron fist at He Yunzhou without hesitation.
"Help--"
"what!"
"Let's get this straight, don't hit someone in the face! Ah—"
"They're being so ruthless, I'm going to get serious now!"
"Ouch--"
Hearing He Yunzhou's screams, the others in the backyard rushed out to see what was happening.
Looking at the two brothers fighting so fiercely, Mrs. He asked anxiously, "What's going on? Why did they suddenly start fighting?"
Ye Xiaoxiao explained, "Mother, the two brothers haven't seen each other for a long time and said they wanted to have a friendly spar."
"Oh, that's alright." Mrs. He was relieved and went back to the kitchen in the backyard.
He Yunzhou, who had taken several punches, cried out: "Auntie, don't go! We weren't sparring, I was just getting beaten up!"
"You guys take your time fighting, I'm going to check the backyard." Ye Xiaoxiao stood up casually, patted her bottom, crossed the hall, and went into the backyard. Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention in the backyard, she dashed up to the second floor in a flash, looking extremely impatient.
One person went up to the large terrace on the second floor and was engrossed in looking at the picture book.
......
In the afternoon, Ye Xiaoxiao and He Jing went out to buy things for their new home, and He Yunzhou, sporting dark circles under his eyes, once again became a laborer.
"I said, you two really are a family, ordering me around without batting an eye."
He Yunzhou grumbled as he carried a large pile of things; it was the first time he had ever been treated like a servant.
"Speaking of which, why didn't you bring your little follower with you this time when you came to Qifeng Town?" Ye Xiaoxiao asked with a curious look.
Upon hearing him ask this question, He Yunzhou wilted like a frostbitten eggplant.
"Oh, don't even mention it. My little follower was so stupid and clumsy, I kicked him out."
To be honest, he didn't know where Tonglu had gone either.
In the capital, the two had a minor disagreement over a trivial matter, and Tonglu ran away.
Later, he sent people to search the entire capital but couldn't find him; it was as if he had vanished into thin air.
Afterwards, He Yunzhou selected several new personal servants for himself, but none of them could compare to Tonglu. In the end, he simply decided not to have anyone to serve him closely at all.
There was something even more important that he didn't say aloud, nor dared to say to anyone.
He seems to have developed different feelings for that kid Tonglu.
It wasn't the kind of affection between master and servant, but more like the kind between a man and a woman.
Thinking about this made He Yunzhou feel agitated, so he decided to travel all the way to Qifeng Town.
"Yunzhou, the way you look is a bit like a heartbroken young lover."
As Ye Xiaoxiao listened to He Yunzhou's thoughts, a knowing glint flashed in her eyes. It seemed that someone was troubled by love, and she couldn't help but tease him a bit.
"Nonsense! How could I possibly be the kind of person who gets troubled by love?"
He Yunzhou's originally carefree steps faltered, and he stammered to cover it up.
What the hell! How does my sister-in-law seem to know everything?
For three days in a row, the entire He family went to town to decorate their new home, and everyone was busy and happy.
"Finally finished!"
He Yunzhou's three days of hard labor finally came to an end.
He said excitedly, "I'm going to Shuiyunjian to move my things over, hehehe! I've reserved that room in the front yard!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he ran off in a flash.
When He's mother saw that he was still as mischievous as he was when he was a child, she couldn't help but laugh.
"Go ahead, go ahead, it'll be more fun with lots of people."
The decoration of the new home is finally finished.
As evening fell, the whole family rode in Grandpa Wang's oxcart, creaking and groaning, back to Dongyuan Village.
After a long day, everyone had a better appetite than usual. They washed up early and went to rest.
Silent all night.
The next day, Ye Xiaoxiao's family was having porridge around the table when they heard a commotion outside.
When He Jing went outside, he saw a lot of people around the courtyard.
"You all stay inside, I'll go check on things," He Jing said, turning to the others.
Through the kitchen window, Ye Xiaoxiao saw a group of villagers, led by the village chief, standing outside the yard.
"He Jing, are you eating? I hope I'm not disturbing you?" Village Chief Li Shanhai took a puff of his cigarette.
Ye Xiaoxiao instructed the children to stay inside and keep He's mother company, and then went to the courtyard and stood beside He Jing.
"What is it?" He Jing's indifferent eyes swept over the crowd.
“Well… He Jing, back when your family came to Dongyuan Village, I took pity on you, a widow and her orphan, and sold you this house. Now—”
"Get to the point," He Jing interrupted Li Shanhai's long-winded speech.
Li Shanhai's face stiffened. He hadn't expected He Jing to show such disrespect to him, the village chief, but he couldn't lash out because all the villagers were around.
"That's right. The house you're living in now belongs to Tiger's uncle. His uncle's family suffered a disaster years ago and didn't leave behind any children."
"Tiger's idea is that he can't let his uncle's branch of the family line die out, so I'll take the lead and register him in the family genealogy under his uncle's name, so that there will be someone to burn incense and paper money for people during festivals in the future."
"Tiger's idea is that he wants to keep this house for his uncle, so that his uncle won't be unable to find his home when he comes back during the Ghost Festival."
Li Shanhai rambled on and on, but Ye Xiaoxiao finally understood.
It means they can no longer live in this house!
