Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Although she had never seen him before, Xue Yan knew who he was talking about.
Zhang Meili was quite close to her eldest sister’s family and often kept in touch with her. Her eldest uncle had naturally come over many times. Zhang Meili was his fourth aunt, so it was difficult for him not to know her.
Perhaps it was because Zhang Meili favored her eldest son, Xue Zhuzi, and didn’t like her youngest son, Xue Gouzi. She realized that Xue Gouzi was very timid and she did not like that. This made her family not like Xue Gouzi very much. This uncle of his was one of them.
In fact, Xue Zhuzi wasn’t particularly favored by Zhang Meili’s maiden family. He was just a little better than Xue Gouzi. Only his uncle was especially good to Xue Zhuzi.
According to this uncle, it was because he hit it off with Xue Zhuzi. He didn’t have any sons and only had daughters, so he treated Xue Zhuzi as his own son.
Xue Yan wasn’t very good at comforting people, but Xue Gouzi was in such a low mood that he only said one sentence after considering it for a long time, “If you want to go out next time, you can look for me.”
“I won’t dare to go to your house anymore… ” Xue Gouzi lowered his head even more, “I’m afraid… I’m afraid that my mother and brother will go to your house and cause more trouble again.
“Although my father forbade them from causing trouble, they still cursed and hated you all. Now, it’s Grandpa who asked me to come and help you, so that’s why I’m here.”
Xue Yan wasn’t worried that Zhang Meili and Xue Zhuzi would come to his family again. After all, his father had made up his mind and would never change it. If Zhang Meili and Xue Zhuzi came, they would be asking for a beating from his father.
He was just worried that if Xue Gouzi got too close to his family, Zhang Meili and Xue Zhuzi would dislike Xue Gouzi even more and think that Xue Gouzi was not of the same mind as them.
Xue Dagui didn’t really care. He rarely took care of children and only cared about major matters.
Thinking of this, Xue Yan said, “Then you can secretly come to find me and Jiang Yue.”
Xue Gouzi finally raised his head, his eyes still shining, “Can I?”
“Of course, you can,” Xue Yan said.
Jiang Yue nodded in agreement. Since Xue Yan cared so much about this guy, he must be a good person.
“T-that’s good.” Xue Gouzi was finally a little happy.
Although Xue Gouzi was already 10 years old, in the eyes of Xue Yan and Jiang Yue, Xue Gouzi was still a child.
Xue Dabao and Xue Xiaobao were considered babies.
Even their 14-year-old brother, who was like a monkey digging for raspberries everywhere, was still a child.
After they were done digging by the river, Jiang Yue and the others went to the dam to dig. As the silly Xue Xiaobao was tired from shouting and acting coquettishly, Jiang Yue and the others accompanied him to the dam to rest.
The six children sat in a row on the field with baskets on their backs. On both sides of the field were tall, green paddies. From a distance, it was a beautiful scene.
When someone sees the view, they would definitely stay for several glances. They felt that it was rare and that it was beautiful for no reason.
Xue Wufu, the big boy, couldn’t sit still at all. He got up and jumped here and there. In the end, he got tired and sat down again. He crossed his legs and still didn’t know his place, swaying back and forth.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were the two most well-behaved ones.
As they talked, even the timid Xue Gouzi was laughing. He felt that this was the happiest day of his life.
“Xue Gouzi, you also dug a lot.” Xue Xiaobao said as he leaned on Xue Gouzi’s basket. “Other than Xue Yan and Jiang Yue’s basket, you dug the most.”
