Seeing the four children not saying a word, Ning Qing was a little nervous.

She didn't want the children to hear the contents of the quarrel just now, especially Xiangjun and Xiangdang. It had been so difficult for the two of them to become dependant on their families, so after hearing what the Mrs. Lu said, what if there were to be a shadow over them?

Xiangjun stepped onto the second step of the stairs. Upon hearing his mother's question, he said worriedly, "I heard Aunt cursing at you, and the sound of you slamming the door. I was afraid that you would be bullied."

Xiangdang nodded, he took a few steps forward and heaved a sigh of relief, "Luckily, you were not injured."

Ning Qing walked to Xiangdang's side and embraced his shoulders, then said with a relaxed tone: "What are you thinking about, why would I quarrel with your aunt?"

Xiangjun: "Auntie, why are you looking so flustered and exasperated, is it not a quarrel?"

Usually, his parents would not be so noisy. At most, his father would not be able to eat.

But that was only a few years ago.

Ning Qing pinched Xiangjun's face, "I was discussing some matters with your mother, so my voice was rather loud."

"But …"

The woman interrupted Xiangjun: "Have you finished your homework? Show it to me. "

Xiangjun was startled for a few seconds, then begged for mercy: "I still have two questions, I'm going to write them now."

Xiangdang said: "Mom, I'm done."

"Bring it here."

Seeing that the two children were no longer asking about what just happened, Ning Qing heaved a sigh of relief.

The builder pulled Ranran and stood up, lying on the reclining chair that Ning Qing was sitting on.

"Mom, it's not like this when you and Dad are discussing problems in loud voices."

Ranran nodded in agreement, "That grandmother is very fierce, mother, are you really not being bullied anymore?"

Ning Qing looked at Xiangdang who was walking over, shot a glance at the two serious looking sprouts, and laughed helplessly: "Have you seen me being bullied before?"

With that thought in mind, yes, that's true, he relaxed and said to Xiangdang: "Big Brother Xiangdang, Ranran and I want to hear the story."

Xiangdang smiled and hugged Ranran who was begging in his arms, "You forgot, with an outsider here, we can't go to the cubicle, we'll be discovered."

Ning Qing was startled by Xiangdang's explanation. Hmm, that's right, Grandma should not know about the matter of 'picking up books'.

"I really forgot. Big Brother Xiangdang, I'm so bored, can you accompany me to play?"

Xiangdang choked. Usually, his suggestion would be rejected by the brat, so he could only ask for help.

Ranran: "How about we play poker?"

Xiangjun had just finished his homework and just as he got up, he heard his sister's words and couldn't help but laugh, "Girl, do you know how to play poker?"

The two children combined were not even ten years old. Wasn't he clearly going to be bullied?

"Sister and I will watch the two of you play."

Ranran shook his head, "I saw it."

She was not as stupid as the Third Elder Brother, she did not know how to look at it for a long time.

Her two elder brothers only played one type, she was already tired of it.

Xiangjun exclaimed in interest, he handed the homework book to his mother and pinched her cheeks, "Then your big brother and I will play with you for a bit."

Ning Qing heard the children discussing what they were playing at and couldn't help but laugh and shake his head.

Closing the door, Mrs. Lu walked down. Without even looking at Ning Qing, he walked out.

Ning Qing could still hear the Mrs. Lu snorting disdainfully. She helplessly pouted and continued to inspect the two children's homework.

When Mrs. Lu went out, Lu Guoyi was still sitting under the locust tree.

When he saw his wife coming over, he pretended to ask casually, "Do you agree?"

Mrs. Lu rolled his eyes, "The voice just now was so loud, didn't you hear it?"

He definitely didn't know exactly what she was talking about, but judging from his wife's expression and the actions just now, she definitely didn't agree.

Lu Guoyi laughed sinisterly, "Tell me, this daughter-in-law of yours, is it that easy to deal with people from the Ning Family?"

Mrs. Lu sat beside Lu Guoyi and took a deep breath: "I don't care, I will wait here for Qing Yao and I want to teach him a lesson. My wife dares to challenge my mother-in-law, rebelling against her!"

That's right, this was the place that angered her the most — other people's daughter-in-law only obeyed their mother-in-law, yet she still wanted to curry favor with her?

The two of them were not afraid of the cold. They sat straight under the locust tree, and all the people who passed by cast sidelong glances at them.

What happened to the Lu family? Sitting under the locust tree, the two old men would rather be blown away by the cold wind than enter the house.

When Aunt Liu went out to throw something, he saw that scene. With a raise of his heart, he put down what he was doing and went straight to the Lu family.

Just as Ning Qing finished checking the homework for the two children, he saw Aunt Liu rushing in anxiously.

"What happened?"

Aunt Liu looked at the location of the two children and shook his head towards Ning Qing.

Ning Qing said to the four children: "There's no one at home right now, so you guys go up and read the storybook first. When you come out, remember to put it back where you left it."

Hearing his mother say that he could go up and listen to the storybook, he got up from the bench first and urged the remaining three people, "Hurry, hurry, I want to listen to Journey to the West."

Ranran wore shoes, raised his head and looked at Third Elder Brother, and ridiculed him: "Third Elder Brother, I don't want to hear Journey to the West, I want to hear something else."

Zhang Jiale squatted on the ground and haggled with his sister in a serious manner, "There's no point in doing anything else. Shouldn't we go watch Journey to the West and listen to the monkeys?"

"Not good, Monkey heard too much." I like the one in the Water Margin carrying the big knife. "

"Little girl, it's not good for girls to fight and kill each other."

"But it isn't good to keep looking at monkeys."

The two children chatted and walked upstairs.

Xiangjun and Xiangdang helplessly looked at each other and followed.

Aunt Liu looked at the four figures and praised: "This girl is so young, she knows about the Water Margin?"

You know, not many four-year-olds know how to pick a storybook.

Ning Qing explained: "Construction is someone who likes listening to stories, pestering his two brothers and almost listening to the books I brought back a few times. Ranran being able to say it out loud does not mean that he can write it out."

Aunt Liu took the scented tea from Ning Qing, and said enviously: "Are you satisfied now, writing more? It's good enough for a four-year-old to know this much. "

If she had a grandson, she would be the same as Ranran or Han Wenqing, who wouldn't need to worry about anything anymore.

Ning Qing chuckled and asked: "Aunt, your expression was so serious earlier, did something happen?"

"Oh, yeah, you had a fight with your mother-in-law?"

The smile on Ning Qing's face gradually disappeared, "You heard it all?"

The Aunt Liu shook his head, "I can only hear the volume of your voice." Pausing, he continued, "Tell me, what is it? I went out and saw your father-in-law and mother-in-law sitting under a locust tree. They didn't even come back in such a cold weather, and they were spread around by a bunch of people with broken mouths. This isn't good for your reputation. "

Ning Qing held onto his cup of water and smiled with his head lowered, "Just now, my mother-in-law called me upstairs and then asked me …"

She explained the entire dispute between the two of them and concluded, "She brought back the child that I painstakingly taught with great effort to raise? I definitely won't. "

Aunt Liu must have been partial towards Ning Qing. At the same time that he thought that the Lu family's parents were useless, he asked, "Aren't you afraid that this will affect your relationship with Qing Yao?"
