Meanwhile, Long Yi left immediately after dropping Xiao Heng off at Bishui Alley, but before leaving, he ran into Little Jing Kong and exchanged a manly fist bump with him.
"Liulang!"
Xiao Heng was about to enter the house when he heard someone call him from behind. He turned around and politely asked, "Aunt He, is there something you need?"
Aunt He handed him a jar with a smile and said, "I just pickled some vegetables, take this."
"No need, we still haven't finished the ones you gave us last time." Xiao Heng politely declined.
Aunt He firmly shoved the jar into his arms, refusing to take no for an answer, "Just take it! You have a big family, and it'll be finished in no time! Besides, it's just a jar of pickled vegetables, not something expensive!"
Xiao Heng wasn’t good at rejecting such pure kindness, so he shyly accepted it, "Thank you, Aunt He."
As soon as Aunt He left, Uncle Zhao from the next door also came over and called out to him. He then handed Xiao Heng a basket of eggs, explaining that last time, Gu Jiao had made salted duck eggs and had given some to the neighbors. Since he didn't have much to reciprocate with, he was giving Xiao Heng eggs from their own chickens.
That's right. After a year of Little Jing Kong's persistent efforts, Bishui Alley had gradually started raising poultry.
"Liulang——"
Yao shi called him from inside.
"Coming!"
Xiao Heng entered the house with the jar and the basket.
No one in the family had changed the way they addressed him to Xiao Heng. Xiao Heng thought this was also good. He still didn't have a courtesy name, so "Liulang" would be his courtesy name. He was Xiao Heng, and he was also Xiao Liulang.
He would complete the rest of Xiao Liulang's life for him.
He would see the scenery that Xiao Liulang hadn't seen.
Xiao Heng's clothes had become too small for him, so Yao shi had bought him new ones. When he tried them on last time, the cuffs were a bit tight, so Yao shi had them altered.
Xiao Heng tried on the new clothes again, and they fit him perfectly. He thanked Yao shi and told her about Aunt He and Uncle Zhao bringing gifts.
"Oh my, they are too kind." Yao shi chuckled and asked Yuya'er to put away the items.
Xiao Heng returned to the west room. Little Jing Kong had finished school early today and was currently rummaging through his large box, tossing things out of it as he searched for something precious.
Xiao Heng was quite exasperated. He had just organized it for him the day before.
Xiao Heng poked Little Jing Kong's small bottom with his cane and asked, "What are you doing?"
Little Jing Kong stopped searching and pulled his little head out of the box. He turned to look at Xiao Heng, panting, and said disappointedly, "I knew it was you, bad brother-in-law!"
JiaoJiao would never poke his little bottom!
Xiao Heng questioned, "Why is everything so messy again?"
"I'm looking for something! JiaoJiao's birthday is coming up, and I want to surprise her!"
Gu Jiao's birthday was next month, and it was less than forty days away from the current date.
Xiao Heng, looking at the little one sweating profusely, suddenly said with a mischievous smile, "It just so happens that I want to give JiaoJiao a surprise too."
Little Jing Kong patted his little chest and declared, "Then my surprise will definitely be more amazing than yours!"
Xiao Heng raised an eyebrow, "That's not necessarily true."
Little Jing Kong put his hands on his hips and stomped his foot, "JiaoJiao likes me the most!"
Xiao Heng smirked, "But she will definitely like the surprise I give her the most."
Little Jing Kong widened his eyes and nervously asked, "What is your surprise?"
The little guy suddenly got anxious.
Princess Xinyang was right. Little Jing Kong and Xiao Heng indeed resembled each other a lot when Xiao Heng was still young. For example, their strong competitive spirit was almost identical.
Xiao Heng bent down to be eye-level with Little Jing Kong and imitated his usual expression, proudly shaking his little head, "I'm not telling you, hehehe."
Little Jing Kong was annoyed!
Little Jing Kong clenched his small fists tightly.
He wouldn't lose to his bad brother-in-law!
The biggest and most amazing surprise would definitely be the one he gave to JiaoJiao!
As the art of war says, ‘know the enemy, know yourself, and you shall win hundred battles.’ He had to find out what his bad brother-in-law's surprise was in order to defeat him!
Where did his bad brother-in-law hide the surprise?
He would definitely find out!
……
On the carriage, Princess Xinyang revealed the entire truth to Marquis Xuanping.
Marquis Xuanping's face turned ice-cold. He wasn't someone who got angry easily, but right now, he was struggling to contain his emotions.
He forced himself to calm down. He wasn't accustomed to losing his temper with women. "Qin Fengwan, do you see this Marquis as utterly useless? You think this Marquis can't even protect my own son? This Marquis hasn’t even fought with the other party, how do you know I can’t beat them?"
Princess Xinyang responded, "See, look! I knew you would react like this. You haven't encountered them, so no matter how much I say, you'll just think I'm exaggerating. Fine, let's just say that I hate Ah Heng and didn't want to see him, so I intentionally sent him away!"
Marquis Xuanping furrowed his brow, "What do you mean, 'let's just say'? It either is or it isn't! You scholars always speak in circles, spouting one sentence with seven or eight meanings. This Marquis can't understand."
Princess Xinyang turned her head away, saying, "If you can't understand, then forget it. After all, that woman from back then was brought by you. You harmed Ah Heng, and you caused the death of my son."
"Regarding Xiao Heng, I won't defend myself, but your son's death..." Marquis Xuanping paused, realizing the inaccuracy of his words. After some contemplation, he continued, "Our son's death isn't something I'm responsible for. This Marquis doesn't think you can blame me for that."
Princess Xinyang's voice was icy as she said, "Why isn't it your responsibility? If it weren't for you bringing that woman back, how could my son have been poisoned?"
Marquis Xuanping's brow furrowed even deeper, "You believed that the assassins who poisoned our son were after her?"
"Wasn't it?" Princess Xinyang countered.
Marquis Xuanping fell silent.Raz P.'s Thoughts
