Translator: 549690339 |

Second Maternal Uncle’s family had just created a scene as if they were here to cause trouble, but after being stopped by Yu Minglang, they immediately became the “victims”. Looking at them now, it was really hard to imagine how arrogant they were just moments ago.

“Quick, call the police! This family is so unreasonable! Hurry and arrest them all! Ah, I’m done for, my whole body hurts, they’ve beaten me up!” Second Maternal Aunt shouted incessantly, as if she was running out of breath.

Jia Xiufang was a bit worried, this looked like a scam.

Xiao Qian watched with amusement, like watching a monkey show. It was truly eye-opening.

Second Aunt, your family’s acting skills are really impressive! Seriously! With such great acting skills, why not perform on the streets instead? You’re all too focused on coveting the elder’s money, there’s no future in that.”

Xiao Qian squatted down in front of Second Maternal Aunt and said this.

Second Maternal Aunt pretended not to hear her, her face covered in snot and tears, rolling around and shouting, “Second Brother, hurry up and call the police, have them arrested, this family, they want to steal money, they kidnapped your Grandma and hurt our family! Ah, I’m in so much pain…” Seeing the other party about to call the police, Jia Xiufang became anxious and wanted to step forward to stop them. What would they do if the police got involved?

Xiao Qian and Yu Minglang each held Jia Xiufang, not letting her go forward.

Qian’er! Brother Lang! Quick, don’t let these people make a scene!” Jia Xiufang said seriously.

“Mom, why are you panicking? It’s not like we did anything wrong. Calm down, calm down!” Xiao Qian patted Jia Xiufang.

“That’s right, Aunt, let them call the police.” Yu Minglang didn’t worry at all. Second Cousin really called the police. He dialed the phone while cautiously watching Yu Minglang, afraid that he would rush over and snatch his phone. Yu Minglang acted like nothing had happened, with one hand in his pocket and the other touching Chen Zilong’s face.

“Brother-in-law, it hurts!” Chen Zilong grinned in pain.

“Look, how brutal, doing this to a child. Xiao Mei, go get the iodine.’¹.

Xiao Qian grinned and went to find the medicine box.

She walked right over Second Maternal Aunt’s body…

The powerful acting skills of Second Maternal Aunt were still in full motion as she rolled and wailed on the ground. At this moment, even though no outsiders were present, she rolled at a consistent pace and her cries were spot on.

If not for witnessing the whole truth, an outsider would truly think that Xiao Qian’s family had caused them such grievance.

“Stand up! What are you lying there for!” Jia Xiufang tried to pull her up, but as soon as she touched Second Maternal Aunt, the woman screamed like a pig being slaughtered.

“Ah! You’re hitting me! Ai Ma, you’re killing me! Ahhh!”

Jia Xiufang was dumbstruck. How did this even work?

Xiao Qian carried the medicine box back and casually stepped over Second Maternal Aunt again. Second Uncle leaned against the stairwell, nursing his waist and wailing as if he were dying.

“Mom, don’t bother, let her perform. Honestly, my Second Aunt is an inspirational figure who could have made a living with her acting talent but instead insists on being a shrew and trying to swindle the elder’s money. Ordinary people don’t have her acting skills or thick skin.”

Yu Minglang was treating Chen Zilong’s wounds, shamelessly seeking advice. “Xiao Mei, from a psychological perspective, can you analyze what’s going on with this family?”

Clear water has no fish, and a shameless person is invincible. I can’t analyze it either.” Xiao Qian shook her head.

Yu Minglang laughed, “Just look at you, you clearly didn’t learn anything in university. Isn’t she just a ruthless shrew? Even this, you can’t analyze? What have you been doing at school for the past six months?”

Xiao Qian gently pushed him, “How is that my fault? Psychology is used to analyze people with mental problems. Look at this family, it’s all about money and not about face. Other than their thick skin and layers of fat, they seem to have no heart. What should I analyze?”

“True, you can’t be blamed for this. To study them, you’ll need a couple of butchers to cut through all that fat. Not even an X-ray can see through their thick skin.”

“Hahaha, Sister, Brother Lang, are you here to do a comedy act?” Chen Zilong laughed heartily, his face smeared with green and yellow medicine by Yu Minglang.

Xiao Qian shrugged her shoulders, “Life has provided us with plenty of material, right, Xiao Qiang?”

“Yes, whatever Xiao Mei says is right.”

Jia Xiufang was originally very nervous, but she was now caught between laughter and anger due to Xiao Qian and Yu Minglang’s comedy act.

“Can you two be more serious? The police have been called, what are we going to do now? And what’s up with your names?”

What was with these Xiao Mei Xiao Qjang names? They simply got together, but even changed their names?

“Mom, what are you worried about? It’s not that big of a deal.”

“Right, Aunt, let’s go out for dinner after we deal with this. My brother’s chef made a soup, let’s have a taste. Just look at how skinny Xiao Mei has become, her little face almost looks like a monkey’s.”

Yu Minglang took the opportunity to openly touch Xiao Qian’s face again.

Chen Zilong was speechless, “Brother Lang, how shameless can you be? How can you say she’s skinny? She’s gained several pounds!”

Anyone with eyes could see that his sister had thrived at university, her face red and plump.

Xiao Qian glared fiercely at Chen Zilong, “Do you want Brother Lang to finish the rest of his punches on you?”

Chen Zilong immediately shut up. He didn’t want to get hit. Brother-in-law’s punches were too fast.

Yu Minglang wasn’t satisfied with just touching Xiao Qian’s face in front of her mother, and he liked the thrill. So he grabbed her hand and held it in his own, speaking earnestly.

“Xiao Mei is perfect in every way, she’s just too skinny, Aunt. Just look at her current figure, she’d be blown away by a gust of wind. We need to fatten her up.”

“This girl just looks skinny, but she’s secretly putting on weight. Her bones are small and she’s growing meat secretively.” Jia Xiufang seriously commented.

Yu Minglang shook his head in dissatisfaction, “Even so, she’s still thin. She’s a picky eater too. Aunt, you need to keep an eye on her. She’s already like this and still being a picky eater, not eating this or that. She won’t eat onions, green peppers, or tofu. Even dishes cooked with ginger have to have big pieces of ginger, otherwise she won’t eat them. This is unacceptable!”

“Brother Lang, weren’t you at your unit? How do you even know my sister’s picky eating habits?” Chen Zilong curiously asked.

Yu Minglang smiled but said nothing. Future brother-in-law, this assist was well done.

Xiao Qian rolled her eyes at this shameless man who tried everything to make a presence in front of her mother.

Sure enough, Jia Xiufang’s face was full of satisfaction. Yu Minglang was really caring towards her daughter. How nice.

Second Maternal Aunt and Second Uncle were still putting on a performance for their lives, while Xiao Qian and Yu Minglang chatted with Jia Xiufang about daily life.

This left the two chubby cousins feeling quite awkward.

They couldn’t stop their parents, it wasn’t appropriate. They couldn’t challenge Yu Minglang to a fight, they couldn’t beat him. Their skin wasn’t as thick as their parents’, so they were too embarrassed to sit on the ground and wail along. But their mother said they had to take Grandma back today, otherwise, there would be no money for them.

They decided to go outside for a smoke. As soon as they lit their cigarettes, several people came in..
