C547 Taking Him in
Second Xue didn't come alone. He was carrying a child in his arms. The child did not cry and did not make a fuss. He did not know his future fate. He only babbled and waved his arms, trying to use his hands to reach his father's face.2
Xue Xue'er did not go close to take a look. She did not need to think to know that this was given to her by Wang Zhaodi. She was not a stone-hearted person so it was best to avoid it. This way, she would not be soft-hearted.
Second Xue had been kneeling on the ground for a period of time and did not say anything. He just kept kneeling and even Old Lady Xue did not know. He did not say anything. If Xue'er did not come back, he would probably kneel until the night.
Old Lady Xue also didn't go out to welcome her granddaughter. She just waved for her to go in, and then took the things from her hands. The grandfather and grandson happily went into the house.
She completely treated Second Xue as an invisible existence.
After entering the house, Xue Xue'er tactfully did not mention about Second Xue. She just put the television on the ground and patted her chest to ask Old Lady Xue, "Milk, what do you think this is? This was bought with the money I got from the award. It was also helped by Fifth Uncle and Eldest Uncle."
Old Lady Xue was so smart. When she heard this, her heart was almost full.
"This is a television, right? How expensive is it? You guys should return it. Milk doesn't need these things."
"No way!"
She rejected it immediately and told Old Lady Xue all the things that she had prepared to decline.
"Milk, I won't return this TV if I buy it. Besides, I bought it with the money I got from winning the award. It's not a waste of money at all. I can watch it at home and so can my brother. Why isn't it good?"
Old Lady Xue frowned and still felt that this thing was too expensive. She waved her hand and still could not accept it. "No, no, this thing is too expensive. There are not many people in this village who have it."
"Milk, you just agree. Yiming and her family also have it. I am really envious."
When Xue Xue'er acted coquettishly, Old Lady Xue could not bear it. In the end, she still tapped her nose and helplessly agreed. This round could be considered to have barely passed.
Xue Xue'er cheered happily and almost stood up and jumped a few laps.
"Second Elder Brother, why are you here?"
It was Third Xue's voice. His voice was loud and clear, and everyone in the room could hear it. Xue Xue'er originally wanted to go out when she heard this, but Old Lady Xue did not move at all and just sat there, so she stopped thinking about it.
It seemed like her grandmother was still suppressing the anger in her heart.
It was just that she knew that Grandmother's sharp tongue and soft heart would definitely be the first one to soften her heart at that time.
Third Xue beckoned Second Xue to go in. After all, it was not a big deal for a big white rabbit to kneel at the door. Besides, that child would not be able to take it. What if the sun was so hot that it broke?
"Second Elder Brother, just follow me in. Mother will definitely be waiting for you inside." Third Xue tried his best to persuade him before pulling Second Xue in. However, Second Xue had been kneeling for a long time, and his legs were a little numb. For a moment, he couldn't stand up. He had to rely on Third Xue's body to barely stand up.
He limped as he carried the child into the main house.
The moment they entered, Old Lady Xue and Xue Xue'er sat on the bed and did not move. Old Lady Xue did not know what she was thinking and did not look at Third Xue either. Third Xue saw that Xue Xue'er was not convenient here and quickly signaled her to go out.
Pouting her lips, in the end she still went out.
The matter in this family was still decided by milk. She was just a child, it would be fine if she enjoyed it well. She left in a hurry yesterday and actually did not go to Ouyang Qing'an's school to take a stroll. Those girls must have stuck to him again.
She also hoped that Fifth Uncle could pass a message to Mr Qing'an saying that she had left. Otherwise, he would think that she was in the city. What if she came to find him on Saturday?
Once Xue Xue'er left, the atmosphere became even more awkward. Old Lady Xue did not want to say anything, but Second Xue was a dull gourd again. In the end, it was Third Xue who broke the situation. "Mother, since Second Elder Brother is here, why don't you give him a cup of water and a meal before leaving?"
"If you like it, give it to me. I don't care."
Old Lady Xue had a childish temper. She turned around and actually had her back to everyone. Third Xue was even more helpless. Old Lady Xue had a childish temper as she grew older.
