Chapter 642: Jealousy
When Xiao Lingyu knew that her son was still searching for a husband for her, she could not help but rub her forehead.
This child was so nosy. When his father woke up, he would be punished severely.
Xiao Lingyu subconsciously began to worry about the future relationship between her husband and her son.
The entire village knew that Xiao Lingyu’s son, Xiao Letong, was trying to find a new husband for Xiao Lingyu.
The whole village, “…”
This child is only a little over one year old. Why would he do something that doesn’t even fit his age? If he were their child, he would have been beaten at least half to death already.
However, Xiao Letong was different from the other children since he was young. Other than being beautiful and cute, he was also smarter than any other child. Oh, he was even smarter than some of the adults. Sometimes, it was impossible to treat him as a one-year-old child.
However, no one could figure out why this child was so obsessed with his mother’s marriage and wanted her to find another husband.
..
“Xiao Letong, what’s wrong with you?” Xiao Lingyu asked again. “Didn’t you promise your mother that you wouldn’t make a fuss over this matter anymore?”
Xiao Lingyu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at her son’s actions. She really didn’t know whether to hit him or scold him.
She knew her son very well. Her son might act up once in a while, but he was someone who knew his limits.
There must be a reason why he was tormenting her on this matter again and again.
In order to avoid embarrassment, Xiao Lingyu specially brought her son into the farming space for questioning.
Seeing the serious and beautiful face on his mother’s face, Xiao Letong’s small face could not help but feel wronged.
His life wasn’t easy either!
In his previous life, he didn’t receive his mother’s love, so it was fine.
In this life, he finally got his mother’s love, so why should there be a man who suddenly appeared to compete with him? Although his biological father was still unconscious in the hospital, he had already noticed his mother hiding under the blanket and crying several times. She even repeated Gong Tianhao’s name over and over again.
He felt a sense of crisis! It was also not a good thing for his mother to hide under the blanket and cry. That was why he tried to divert his mother’s attention.
When Xiao Letong did not say anything, Xiao Ling said very honestly, “Master, Little Master said that there are children in the village who call him a bastard without a father. So, Little Master wants to find a father now.”
“What?” Xiao Lingyu’s expression changed. “Son, is there really someone who scolded you like that?”
She had been busy with work recently and completely neglected her son.
But she didn’t expect that her son would suffer such grievance.
Xiao Letong pursed his lips tightly and looked at Xiao Lingyu with a forbearing and aggrieved expression.
He didn’t want to tell her that he was actually a little jealous when he saw her crying for that man.
This made Xiao Lingyu mistook Xiao Tong’s grievance as him being hurt by those children’s words. She squatted down and hugged her little son in her arms.
Her heart ached as she said, “Son, I’m sorry! I’ve been busy with work recently and neglected you too much. I don’t even know that you’ve suffered! I’m sorry!”
Xiao Letong shook his head and said, “Mommy, this is not your fault.”
Xiao Lingyu thought of something and asked, “Come, tell Mommy. Who are those people who called you a fatherless bastard?” Her son was her bottom line. No one had the right to insult him. Moreover, it wasn’t that her son didn’t have a father. It was just that his biological father was currently in the hospital.
Xiao Letong wasn’t a tattletale. He shook his head and said, “It’s okay, Mommy. I took revenge on the spot. I beat them up until they cried for their parents. They’re so useless!”
Xiao Lingyu, “…” Her son was so violent!
Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “Yes, my son is so great! It’s not good to go around beating people, but if they offend us, we have to take twice the revenge. However, son, you’re still so young. How did you manage to beat them up?”
Xiao Lingyu did not feel that there was anything wrong with her son beating someone up. It who those people who offended him first. But his son was so young. How did he manage to beat up the older kids?
Xiao Letong wanted to roll his eyes at his silly mother. He said, “Mommy, why would I do it myself? I’m the King of the children in the village. With a single order, people will complete my demand.”
Xiao Lingyu, “…”
She suddenly realized that her child had a personality similar to his father’s.
Xiao Letong looked at Xiao Lingyu in confusion and asked, “Mommy, what’s wrong? Did I do something wrong?”
Xiao Lingyu took a deep breath and said, “You didn’t do anything wrong, but fighting doesn’t…” it didn’t solve the problem.
Xiao Letong waved his hand and said, “Mommy, this is a matter between children, so we’ll use a children’s method to resolve it.”
There were occasional fights and arguments between children. It was very simple. However, arguments between adults involved human relationships and capital.
Xiao Letong said again, “Mommy, we’ll solve this ourselves. Adults shouldn’t get involved!”
Xiao Lingyu, “…” How come it feels like my son is persuading me?
Xiao Lingyu patted his head and said with a smile, “Okay, I’ll listen to my son. But Son…” she paused for a moment, “You have to tell mommy about problems that can’t be solved between children, okay? You have to know that mommy can’t bear to see you suffer any grievances.”
Xiao Letong immediately smiled and said, “Hehe, Mommy, I don’t want to be a child who only knows how to complain behind people’s back.”
Xiao Ling listened to their conversation and felt that something was not right. ‘Shouldn’t they be talking about Little Master trying to find a new husband for Master?’
However, Xiao Lingyu was too focused on people calling her son a fatherless bastard.
She said very seriously, “Son…”
However, Xiao Letong seemed to have guessed what Xiao Lingyu was going to say, and he immediately gave Xiao Ling a look.
Xiao Ling was confused at first and soon received his little master’s divine sense. Then, he immediately said to Xiao Lingyu, “Master, there seems to be someone outside looking for you!”
Xiao Lingyu frowned. Sure enough, there was the sound of someone knocking on the door. Therefore, she had to end the conversation with her son early. Xiao Lingyu told Xiao Letong, “Son, you stay in the space for now. Mommy will go outside and take a look.”
“Okay. Mommy, you go ahead.” Xiao Letong nodded.
After Xiao Lingyu left, Xiao Ling asked curiously, “Little Master, why did you interrupt master?”
Xiao Letong held his chin and puffed his cheeks. He was obviously a little jealous, “My mother clearly wants to tell me that I’m a child with a father and not a bastard child who doesn’t have a father! So, she wants to use this to comfort my young soul!”
Xiao Ling said in puzzlement, “Isn’t that great?”
Xiao Letong waved his hand in front of his mouth and said with an unfathomable expression, “You don’t understand!”
He knew that the man was about to wake up, so he had to take this opportunity to create problems for him.
How could he steal his mommy from him?! He had to find a few love rivals for him!
Xiao Lingyu, who had gone out, naturally did not know her son’s secret thoughts. Or rather, she never imagined that her son would be competing for her love with her husband.
Xiao Letong knew that the man was about to wake up soon and his days of being alone with his mother were about to end, so he had to do something about that.
Xiao Lingyu opened the door and saw Mother Xiao standing outside. She said with some confusion, “Mom, it’s so late. Why aren’t you asleep yet?”
Mama Xiao said anxiously, “Yu ‘Er, something happened!”
“What happened?” Xiao Lingyu asked immediately.
Mother Xiao said, “Yue Lai Inn called just now. They said that a tourist had been separated from his family and hadn’t come back yet. He can’t be contacted either. His family is very anxious!”
Xiao Lingyu’s expression changed. “What? Mom, I’ll go to the inn now.”
It was already past ten o’clock in the evening. They were afraid that this would escalate into a missing person’s case!
In the past, there had been cases of people being separated, but they were eventually found.
Mother Xiao looked around the room and asked, “Where’s Xiao Tong?”
Xiao Letong was with Xiao Lingyu, but she didn’t see Xiao Letong in Xiao Lingyu’s room.
Xiao Lingyu, who had just stepped out of the door, quickly returned. Then, she let Xiao Letong out and said, “Mom, take care of Xiao Tong. I’ll go take a look now.”
Mother Xiao hugged Xiao Tong and nodded. “Okay, okay. Go. Your Dad and the others have already rushed over.”
Xiao Letong looked at his mother’s hurried expression and asked curiously, “Grandma, what happened?”
Mother Xiao looked a little flustered as she said, “A tourist has disappeared. The family of that tourist is very anxious.”
“A tourist has gone missing?!” Xiao Letong asked in surprise. This could be a serious issue. How did the tourist go missing?
Xiao Letong immediately said, “Grandma, can you take me to take a look?”
“No,” Mother Xiao shook her head. “It’s already very late. You have to go to bed. You’re still a child. You can’t stay up too late!”
Xiao Letong immediately said, “Grandma, just take me there. Think about it. I may be young, but I’m extremely smart. Maybe I can help?”
Mother Xiao was a little hesitant. Her grandson was indeed very smart. The previous missing-tourist incidents were all solved after her grandson’s analysis.
Xiao Letong added, “Grandma, it’s just one night of sleep. It won’t affect my growth.”
Mother Xiao Thought for a moment and said, “Okay, Grandma will bring you there now!”
A missing person was a big deal. One more person meant more hope. Plus, the later it was, the more danger the missing tourist would be in.
With her young grandson’s intelligence, he might really be of great help.
When Grandma Xiao brought her child to the inn, there were many people gathered in the inn. There were tourists and villagers staying there.
But at the door of the inn, it was noisy and chaotic.
