Chapter 440: Chapter 441 Aunty, did Uncle Bully You?

Xiaoxiao, who had been tormented by Yang Ming all night, really slept at home all day; whether she went out or stayed in, she was met with laughter. It seemed best for her to opt for being an ostrich for now.

When Yang Ming returned from the lowlands, he saw his wife lying there, sleeping peacefully. He approached, sat on the edge of the Kang bed, and looked at his wife as if he could never get enough of her, his eyes filled with indulgent affection.

He used his hand to gently brush aside the hair scattered on his wife’s face, corners of his mouth carrying a sweet, sticky smile, finally holding his wife in his arms.

Awoken by Yang Ming’s action, Xiaoxiao opened her eyes and saw her penny-pinching husband gazing at her, "Husband, you’re back."

"Mhm."

"Why so late?" They had agreed he would be back shortly, yet it was almost dark already.

"Went to the lowlands," Yang Ming replied.

"Husband, are you tired?"

"Not tired."

"..." He isn’t tired, but why does she feel especially tired, the kind that gets worse the more she lies down, feeling like her whole body is falling apart?

Sitting up, Xiaoxiao started to get dressed. Worried that his wife was still very tired, Yang Ming quickly said, "You should keep resting in the room; I’ll bring the food in, and we can eat here together."

Xiaoxiao hurriedly waved her hands, "No need, no need, let’s just go eat over there."

It was as if she was some patient, downright embarrassing. Resting for a day was enough; she couldn’t just stay indoors forever.

As Xiaoxiao continued to get dressed and got off the bed, Yang Ming considerately handed her the shoes, "Just wait for me a moment. I’m covered in mud. Let me wash up quickly, then we can go together."

"Mhm."

By the time Yang Ming and Xiaoxiao arrived, the meal was already prepared. Everyone saw them but said nothing. Old Master Yang spoke up, "Let’s eat."

Everyone then started to eat their meal, minding their own business, and no one brought up why Xiaoxiao hadn’t gone to the lowlands.

She thought the meal could be eaten without incident, but things often turn out unexpectedly.

A childish voice piped up, shattering the room’s silence, "Third Auntie, did Third Uncle bully you?"

As these words came out, everyone turned to look at Yang Liuliu, the second brother’s child.

The second brother’s wife immediately scolded, "Liuliu, don’t talk nonsense."

But the world of children is very pure; she felt she wasn’t talking nonsense, "I’m not talking nonsense. Yesterday, Third Auntie kept crying out very loudly; wasn’t it because Third Uncle was hitting her?"

The second brother’s wife quickly covered her child’s mouth and took the child outside, saying awkwardly while walking, "Hehe, the child is talking nonsense; please don’t take it to heart, everyone."

At that moment, Xiaoxiao’s face had turned beet red, and Yang Ming also felt his face heating up, not expecting to be called out by a child.

The dining table fell silent for a while; everyone understood what the child was implying, so they all bowed their heads and continued eating without a word.

Xiaoxiao thought the matter was over, but then another voice rang out.

"Big Brother, did you hit your wife?"

"Cough cough." As soon as these words came out, Xiaoxiao completely choked. Yang Dong was just unbelievable. What to say about him? She stood up, "I’m done eating; you all take your time."

Too embarrassed to stay, Yang Ming saw that his wife had stopped eating and quickly followed her back to their room.

After the two left, Old Master Yang scolded his son, "Are you stupid?"

Yang Dong still didn’t sense the mood, "Dad, who did you say is stupid?"

In unison, the family members said, "You’re stupid."
