Xu Qing grabbed one of them and asked, “Xu Mao, where are you guys going?”
Xu Mao was the youngest son of Xu Jiangnan, the second son of the Xu family. When he saw Xu Qing, he immediately tried to break free from Xu Qing’s grip. However, he was small and didn’t have enough strength, so he could only scold fiercely, “You shameless little slut, let go of me!”
Xu Qing’s expression instantly turned cold. What could a child know? It must be that the Xu family was still scolding her at home!
“If you dare to scold me again, I’ll tear your mouth apart.” Xu Qing’s gloomy voice instantly frightened Xu Mao. However, he thought of something and immediately said disdainfully, “My aunt is back. Let’s see how she deals with you!”
Xu Qing raised her eyebrows. Eldest Aunt… This person was Chen Qiulian’s eldest daughter. When Xu Qing was young, she married into a middle-class family in the neighboring county. It had been more than ten years and she had never returned. She didn’t know why she had returned now.
However, Xu Yunfang wasn’t a good-tempered person. Like Chen Qiulian, she had bullied their family many times.
Xu Qing was thinking when Xu Mao broke free from Xu Qing’s hand and scolded her again. Then, he turned around and ran.
“Miss, I’ll kill him!” Xun Fen’s expression darkened.
“There’s no need to waste time on him,” Xu Qing said in a low voice. After saying that, she brought Xun Fen back. Along the way, she had heard a lot about Xu Yunfang. It turned out that she had taken a luxurious carriage back home this time. She had deliberately stopped for a long time and given candy to children everywhere. Xu Qing only wanted to laugh when she heard it. It seemed like she had to go back quickly because Chen Qiulian would definitely bring Xu Yunfang to her place to show off.
As expected, during dinner time, the entire Xu family came out again. Unfortunately, Xu Qing had long expected them to come back and had dinner early. Dinner was finished by the time they came.
Chen Qiulian and the others thought that there would be a table full of fish and meat, but in the end, there wasn’t even any vegetables. Instantly, their faces turned livid.
“Father, Mother.” Xu Jiangxi pushed his wheelchair over to greet them.
“Yes,” Old Master Xu replied calmly, but there was displeasure in his voice.
Xu Jiangxi braced himself and asked, “Why are Father and Mother here?”
“Your sister is back,” Old Master Xu said calmly.
Xu Jiangxi looked at the most eye-catching person in the crowd. He saw Xu Yunfang wearing gaudy clothes and she was covered in jewelry. Those who didn’t know better would think that she was selling jewelry. Her aged face was covered in thick foundation. She was frighteningly pale and her lips were bloody red. She probably thought that she looked good and kept showing off her jewelry.
Xu Qing really wanted to use a scalpel to cut open the brains of the Xu family’s members to see if there was a single normal person. That’s not right. Her father was very normal.
“Sister.” Xu Jiangxi still had some affection for this sister of his because he had brought Xu Yunfang up. However, after Xu Yunfang grew up, she distanced herself from him like the others in the Xu family.
Xu Yunfang fiddled with the jade bracelet in her hand and said in a mocking tone, “Third Brother, I came all the way here to see you, but I didn’t even get served a meal. Looks like you’ve become more and more unfilial during my absence. Do you still care about this family?”
Xu Jiangxi was already numb. No matter who it was, everyone in this family addressed him rudely and anyone could trample on him!
“You guys came to freeload? That’s really unfortunate. We’re done eating. By the way, I heard from the village that Eldest Aunt brought back a lot of fresh food from the neighboring county. Our family has never eaten it before. I wonder if Eldest Aunt can give us some to try?” Xu Qing smiled.
However, the expressions of the Xu family changed. Xu Yunfang said angrily, “Is your family worthy?”
Xu Jiangxi didn’t hold it in anymore and said in a low voice, “Since you didn’t think of your brother, sister-in-law, niece, and nephew, it’s no wonder we didn’t think of you.”
Xu Yunfang choked. When did her third brother become so good at scolding people?
“Alright, we’re here today for your eldest nephew, Xu Nai’s marriage. Are you guys going to take the two hundred thousand yuan or not?” Old Master Xu looked at his third son and felt that he was becoming more and more annoying.
Qu Feng said directly, “Father, our family has already left a few months ago. We’ve also paid for Xu Nai’s dowry. Now, the money for his wedding is going to be paid by our family? Go out and ask around. In these eight villages, which family does things like this?” This might be the first time Qu Feng had rebelled against the Xu family so fiercely, and her hands couldn’t help but tremble. However, this family was really too much. Look at how well-off they were. They actually asked for hundreds of thousands! How could a farmer’s family earn tens of thousands a year?
Chen Qiulian and the others immediately glared at her. Qu Feng was rich now, so she had become bolder! They looked at Qu Feng, who looked graceful now. Her skin was fair and tender, and there were servants serving her. They were so jealous that they gritted their teeth!
