Chapter 809: Chapter 810: The Orchid in the Room
"Pay money?" Chiang Baoguo immediately scolded, "I’ve just about spent my entire paycheck on rent and groceries for you. Do you think I’m made of money? We should have just stayed in the village for school. There’s no rent there. Why did we have to come here and join this chaos?"
Song Xiyun glared at him and said, "Aren’t Second Uncle and Second Aunt here? Just have Second Uncle front the cash for now. Besides, didn’t you say that the factory dorms can only accommodate wives and not children? So, why don’t we let Caijiao and Dongdong stay with Second Uncle for now, and I’ll move into the dorm with you? After your shift, we’ll just come over to Second Uncle’s place to eat. Isn’t that a good plan?"
Upon hearing her words, Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao were both dumbfounded.
They truly hadn’t anticipated that Song Xiyun would come up with such a scheme.
Chiang Songhai silently broke into a sweat and said without even thinking, "Little would definitely disagree."
Hmm, by now he had become accustomed to invoking Chiang Xiao whenever he encountered an unsolvable problem.
Song Xiyun had just been frightened by Chiang Xiao that day. Hearing his words made her heart shrink, but then she thought of Chiang Baoguo’s presence. She figured that although Chiang Xiao could intimidate the elderly and children, surely she wouldn’t dare to confront her own uncle, right?
Besides, if Chiang Songhai agreed, could Chiang Xiao really go against his wishes?
She quickly elbowed Chiang Baoguo and then said to Chiang Songhai, "Second Uncle, Chiang Xiao is really getting out of hand lately. If she disagrees, just clutch your heart and complain that it hurts, claim she upset you!"
Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao exchanged a look, both thinking that Song Xiyun was utterly crazy.
Why on earth should they scare Little?
Song Xiyun then said to Chiang Baoguo, "You, as her eldest uncle, really should teach her better. A child without parental guidance just won’t do. She doesn’t know any bounds now. I say, when a child doesn’t listen, a spanking is in order!"
Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao simply couldn’t bear to listen any longer.
Spank Little? They never had before, and now that Little was so capable and obedient, they couldn’t bear to do it.
Chiang Baoguo also felt that Song Xiyun was talking nonsense.
Could he actually discipline Chiang Xiao?
He pushed Song Xiyun aside and said irritably, "Enough, enough. Go stand over there! I need to have a proper talk with Second Uncle. You keep spouting useless nonsense!"
Song Xiyun’s face fell, and she huffed before walking away.
She might as well look around to see if there were any valuable items in the house.
Seeing Song Xiyun eying their possessions, Ge Liutao was about to follow her when Chiang Caijiao tugged at her sleeve and said in a coy voice, "Second Aunt, I heard there’s a big rooftop here, isn’t there? Does it have flowers planted on it? Can I go up to see it, please?"
Ge Liutao thought that the rooftop was simply a place with some flowers and vegetables, nothing special, so she led her out.
As soon as Song Xiyun saw she was unobserved, she immediately pushed open a room door and went inside.
Upon entering, she knew this was Chiang Xiao’s room.
A simple wooden bed with neatly folded bedding, a desk with a potted orchid on it, and the fragrance of flowers filled the room.
Song Xiyun’s eyes lit up.
Just the other day, when she had nothing to do, she overheard people gossiping about an old man in the county who loved growing orchids. Those flowers were so precious, more valuable than life itself, and out-of-town guests would come seeking his orchids to purchase. They said one of those orchids could sell for enough money to rival two years of their hard labor!
Now, seeing the orchid before her, Song Xiyun’s heart immediately itched uncontrollably.
