Chapter 463: Putting On A Show
Especially Wang Qiuhua and Miao Cuilan – they were not exactly well-off. They were still scrimping and saving to make up for all the things they had given earlier!
So when Jiang Yingqiu mocked them, it hit a sore spot.
Jiang Yingqiu was not afraid of them at all. She said, “Well, I’m talking about whoever did such things! Everyone knows what happened in the brigade at that time.”
She was no pushover.
All these years, she had lived alone and raised her two sons. If she were so easily bullied, she would have been bullied to death.
She had no reason to fear these people. The Mo family were poor peasants by birth, and they were good elements. Her older brother was the leader of the Southern Lake Brigade. Her son was very successful and had many connections. Why would she need to be afraid of these old gossips?
They were all furious after being mocked. Just at that moment, Jiang Xun ran over and stopped before Jiang Yingqiu. He spoke carefully and ingratiatingly. “Grandma, the house is tidy. It’s almost the new year now and the house needs to be cleaned. Do you have any clothes that need washing? It’s best to wash all the blankets and bedsheets in time for the new year. I’ll wash them for you!”
Jiang Yingqiu’s expression did not improve. She still looked worried, a little helpless, and rather undecided, as if she could not bear to make a difficult decision. “I’ve already washed all the sheets and blankets. But I haven’t washed Little Rui and Little Xu’s clothes yet. You can wash those. You don’t need to do anything else.”
Jiang Xun was so frightened that he kept waving his hands. “It’s all right, it’s all right. Grandma, I’m used to doing lots of work. I… I’ve always taken care of my younger brothers. Don’t worry, if you have anything that needs to be done, you can just tell me. I can do anything.
“Then… besides clothes, what about shoes? I noticed that Little Rui and Little Xu’s shoes are a little dirty. I’ll go and scrub them now!”
With that, he immediately ran back before Jiang Yingqiu could stop him.
“Sigh…” Jiang Yingqiu’s mouth moved as if she had not had time to speak.
She looked at Jiang Xun’s disappearing figure for a while, then sighed and lowered her head without a word.
Mu Mu had come out with Jiang Xun, and now he came over to hug Jiang Yingqiu. His expression was cautious and pleading.
“Grandma, my older cousin is very clever and he knows how to do anything. In the past, he always took care of me. Can he… live with us? Without him, Mu Mu would not have made it until now!”
Jiang Yingqiu looked at Mu Mu’s face, her expression a little stiff. Then she sighed again and lowered her head without speaking.
When the others saw Jiang Yingqiu’s response to Jiang Xun, they all understood.
It was clear that Jiang Xun wanted to stay. He had no home. Of course, he longed for one.
So he was trying his best to please Jiang Yingqiu.
But what about Jiang Yingqiu?
It was a heavy burden to care for so many children. But the child was so pitiful, and with her grandson pleading for him, she was too embarrassed to abandon the child, so she could not make up her mind!
Mo Beihan and Gu Qingyao had been there for some time and saw what Qin Yufeng and the others had done. Gu Qingyao was astonished when she saw Jiang Xun and Mu Mu put up such a good performance!
Damn!
This child was brilliant!
But when she looked at Qin Yufeng, Gu Qingyao’s expression grew frosty. She brought forward her previous decision to get all their things back from the Sun family.
She looked at Mo Beihan. Fortunately, Mo Beihan was home now. It would be easier to get things done when he was around to help.
