Chapter 145: Tang Can

Wulongcha, this unreliable one, how come Ji Xiaoling showed up at the banquet without telling her?

"That aunt, haven't you never gone to school? Family shame shouldn't be aired, but what's being aired now isn't the Ye family's shame!"

【Wulongcha still hasn't come back? If I can't win the argument, I'll have to Draw card to deal with Ji Xiaoling!】

Su Xi gazed softly at Su Yu's nape, "Why aren't you feeling sorry for the money at this moment? What a grudge is this? You tell me!"

Liang Yan says Xiao Yu's little sister makes sense!

"Exactly, you never went to school! I get it!"

Liang Yan, proud, shouted loudly, and nearby guests gathered to watch the drama.

Ji Xiaoling was about to retort when she heard another child's voice.

"You are the ones who never went to school!"

Ji Xiaoling straightened her back, about to mock Su Yu, when the child's voice shouted, "Ask the adults here, which one can't tell she's standing with those two naughty kids? Even if those two kids were pooping here, she'd take a bite and say the poop is tasty!"

【Wow—, what a good insult! Hero! If you say that, I'll have to admit I never went to school!】

Liang Yan, a sincere child, turned to Zhu Xueheng and asked, "Dad, does that ugly aunt really eat the poop the Lin family's two kids pull out and say it's tasty?"

Zhu Xueheng: "…Sweetie, how am I supposed to answer? He was just giving an example, making a comparison!"

The people present gradually dispersed. It wasn't that they didn't want to enjoy the fun; they were just struggling to hold back laughter! Which family has such mischievous kids?

"Why aren't you answering me? Didn't she say all the adults know?"

Liang Yan pointed at the child who just spoke, her face full of confusion.

The child, hands in pockets, sounding old, said, "Everyone says you two never went to school! This kind of thing should be asked privately to adults. By doing this, how are the hypocritical adults supposed to answer? Speaking honestly would offend people!"

【You know it offends people and you still say it, truly a warrior! Hahaha! Ji Xiaoling's face twisted in anger!】

"Ugly aunt, why is your face crooked?"

Su Yu felt ecstatic inside, but it didn't show on her face; she pretended to look puzzled, stared at the slightly twisted‑faced Ji Xiaoling, and shouted loudly!

Liang Yan looked up at Ji Xiaoling's face, startled, "Huh? So scary! Dad, how can her face move? My doll's face doesn't move piece by piece!"

Liang Yan, a bit frightened, curled up behind Su Yu, and Zhu Xueheng had to step forward, standing between the two kids to smooth things over, "Children's words are harmless! Children's words are harmless!"

To punish the child, you first have to get past this hurdle. He believes that the timid‑and‑fearful Ji Xiaoling won't lay a hand on this man.

Guests who had been hiding to stifle laughter, not having gone far, turned back and saw Ji Xiaoling's slightly ferocious face. Some people planning marriage alliances with the Ji Family also reconsidered. If you faced such a face every day, one's lifespan might be shortened!

Ji Xiaoling glared fiercely at Zhu Xueheng. Just as she was about to speak, she saw more and more people gathering, so she hurriedly covered her face and ran away!

Her face must not have any problem!

The guests, seeing nothing entertaining left, gradually left to share the gossip with their companions.

Su Yu blinked her moist big eyes, curiously watching the girl wearing overalls, almond eyes, pink cheeks, with two cute braids, looking somewhat frail. When she didn't speak, she exuded a special, delicate aura.

But as soon as she opened her mouth, she spoke with a bandit's tone and manner, "You're so fat!"

The girl, about the same age as Liang Yan, walked over without a hint of shyness, reached out and patted Su Yu's face.

Liang Yan, angry, stepped forward and waved the girl's hand away, "You can't randomly rub little sister Xiao Yu's face!"

After speaking, Liang Yan also rubbed Su Yu's face, as if using her hand as a tissue to wipe away the marks the child left on Su Yu's face.

Su Yu, having her face rubbed twice: …

【If you weren't so pretty, I definitely wouldn't play with you!】

"Tang Can?"

Su Xi called out the name uncertainly.

"How? Do you know me?"

Tang Can's gaze stayed fixed on Su Yu's face. It felt so soft! Softer than the cats her mother and aunt raise, and yet a different feeling!

Su Xi paused a moment, "I remember you weren't like this before!"

He had indeed seen Tang Can a few times, but only at banquets. Her face hadn't changed much, but her personality shifted dramatically, from a delicate rabbit to a punch‑ready monkey.

He was curious about the Tang Family's child‑rearing methods and thought to discuss them next time he saw her.

She practices by example, forging a wrong path of raising children. Su Xi wanted to ask clearly; when he raises Su Yu, he'll be especially careful. Avoiding the wrong answer might be the right one?

Tang Can looked at Su Yu holding Su Xi's hand, guessing this chatterbox adult was a relative of the Soft Dumpling.

She was blind to faces, couldn't recognize who was before her, but since the Soft Dumpling was pleasant to touch, she gave a little concession, "Oh! Can't?"

Zhu Xueheng stroked his chin; this child felt too much like a person. But the age didn't match; that person had only been married a few years, couldn't have such a big daughter.

Su Xi didn't reply, but Su Yu tentatively asked, "Of course it's fine, do you speak like that at home too?"

Tang Can shook her head, "I usually don't speak at home."

"Why?"

【Is it because you'll get hit?】

"My grandparents have heart disease; they can't stand hearing me speak."

Tang Can is selectively respectful to elders and caring for the young. Her grandparents treat her well; having seen them faint from her words several times, she no longer likes to speak. But her uncle's grandparents are good, and no matter what she says, they don't get angry.

【6!】

Tang Can answered whatever was asked, making Su Yu even more curious, "You spoke very well just now, but the adults who heard you will definitely go complain; won't the adults in your family punish you?"

Su Yu actually wanted to say "hit". She felt quite pleased hearing Tang Can scold Ji Xiaoling. But putting herself in Ji Xiaoling's shoes, being so petty and being mocked by a child in front of many people would make her want to complain. Her and Liang Yan's adults were present, so they couldn't be punished, but Tang Can's situation was different; her own adults weren't here!

Liang Yan, beside her, nodded vigorously, "If I say the wrong thing I won't get hit, but my mother will call me reckless. If I mess up again next time, I'll be punished. If an adult complains, I'll also be easy to punish!"

Tang Can poked Su Yu's face; when Liang Yan extended a hand, she angrily rebuked her before she could speak.

"Not at all, because they all punish my uncle, saying my uncle taught me badly."

Su Xi silently lit a candle for his brother! Ye Shu at least takes the blame for his own wife, while Ren Tiandu, however, takes the blame for his own niece!

【6! Your uncle actually doesn't beat you!】

"I've answered so many of your questions; you have to go home with me!"

???

The two adults and two children present all felt their brains weren't enough.

Su Yu repeatedly pondered, "You are voluntarily answering my questions; I didn't mention any other conditions, okay!"

【This won't cause any problems, right?】

Tang Can lowered her eyes somewhat disappointed; the soft dumpling is hard to deceive! If the soft dumpling says to go home with her, she can snatch it back home.

My family has lots of dried fish; I can buy you many things; I want to raise you.

Anyway, Mom and Aunt have raised a fluffy cat; she raising a fluffy person shouldn't be a big problem.

Unfortunately, the fluffy she likes is smarter than the house cat; you can't deceive it back with dried fish.

Su Yu hadn't figured out how to answer yet, and Tang Can had already left her sight.
