Chapter 119 - She thinks that he is silly, cute silly. (3)
Old Mr. Wen hrumphed and said, “Alright, hand over the green bean cakes and I’ll get the money for you.”
Wen Rugui, “Grandpa, you’ve already eaten all the fish and probably hid the rest of the green bean cakes. The doctor said you should not eat so many sweets.”
“What do doctors know?” said Old Mr. Wen with a hrumph. “And you still haven’t told me why you didn’t give the girl the stuff?”
Wen Rugui said nonchalantly, “Didn’t you say to save her stuff so I will have an excuse to go look for her next time? I am saving them for next time.”
“……”
Old Mr. Wen returned to his room to retrieve the money with his hand over his forehead.
With the way his grandson was, he felt that he would never be able to see his great grandson in this lifetime.

Tong Xuelu took the bus back to Yanqing County.
By the time she got home, most of the stuff inside the house had already been packed.
The two brats Tong Jiaxin and Tong Mianmian were packing and pillow fighting at the same time. It looked like Tong Jiaming did most of the packing.
Tong Mianmian immediately abandoned Tong Jiaxin and ran over when she saw that her Big Sister was back. “Big Sister, you are back!”
Tong Xuelu picked her up right away. “Was Mianmian a good girl today?”
“Yes! Mianmian was a very good girl today!” The little bun nodded heavily and said in a milky voice,” Mianmian helped Second Brother fold the clothes!”
“Our Mianmian is so awesome!”
The little bun thrusted her chest out and nodded. “Mianmian is very awesome, as awesome as Big Sister.”
“Little Sister, since when have you become so brazen? Besides, was that really folding? It was more like rollin’!”
Tong Jiaxin couldn't help but tease her when he heard her bragging about herself.
Tong Mianmian’s little white face turned red from anger. “Third Brother is a meanie! Mianmian doesn’t want to talk to you anymore!”
Tong Jiaxin stuck his tongue out at her. “Fine. Don’t talk to me then. Little petty girl taking a drink……”
Tong Jiaming shouted at him, “Shut up, Jiaxin. Don’t bully your little sister.”
Tong Mianmian looked at Tong Jiaming with her large and limpid eyes. “Second Brother is the bestest. Third Brother is a meanie!”
Tong Jiaxin stuck his tongue out at her again, unphased by what she had said.
Tong Xuelu couldn't help but roll her eyes. She really wanted to beat this kid up.
After dinner that night, Tong Jiaxin was causing trouble again.
He announced that he would not be showering that night!
Tong Xuelu didn’t care either way. He wasn’t sleeping with her. Even if he was smelly, that would be Tong Jiaming’s problem.
Many people did not bathe daily in this day and age. Tong Jiaming didn’t care much that Tong Jiaxin wasn’t going to shower but he did request that he must wash his feet before climbing into bed.
By bedtime, Tong Jiaxin brought a bucket of water inside the house to wash his feet with. He twisted around as he stood inside the tub and washed his feet. “Mianmian is a petty brat. Petty brats like feet water.”
“Stupid Third Brother, Mianmian is not talking to you anymore!”
Tong Mianmian crossed her arms in front of her and sat down facing the wall, her lips pouted.
He was twisting around even more when he heard that. “Mianmian is a petty brat…. Oh oh oh……”
BAM!
He slipped all of a sudden and fell backward, hard, onto the floor.
He banged his head against the bucket and the bucket flipped and splashed its entire content onto his face.
“HAHAHA……”
Seeing that Tong Jiaxin ended up drinking his own feet water, Tong Xuelu couldn't help but busted out laughing.
That was what happened to a naughty child!
Tong Jiaming’s lips curved as he walked over to help Tong Jiaxin up.
Tong Jiaxin had a lump on his head. Pain was one thing but, mostly, he felt very embarrassed.
Staring at Tong Xuelu who was laughing at his misfortune, he was so angry that his cheeks puffed up like a pufferfish.
