Chapter 35
Li Xu nodded, “Yes.”
“Then how long before the winter vacation?”
Li Xu calculated carefully. It was already the beginning of the winter month in the lunar calendar, and it was only a month away from the winter vacation.
“About a month and a half more.”
Hearing this, Ji Zi’ang’s face immediately turned bitter, “There’s still so much time.”
Li Xu found it strange, “When did you and Mucheng become so close? Are you so eager for him to come?”
Ji Zixuan understood his younger brother and immediately smiled, “He’s not looking forward to Mucheng coming. He’s looking forward to the chocolate.”
Li Xu instantly understood and shook her head helplessly.
Although they were born from the same mother, Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi’ang’s personalities were worlds apart.
Zixuan had been sensible since he was young. He studied well and was just like an adult. Most importantly, he was good-looking. Among his peers, he was outstanding in all aspects.
However, Zi’ang was the exact opposite of him. Needless to say, he was not good at studying either. He was always second to last in his class. Ji Zixuan had given him a lot of tutoring, but it did not work.
Call him stupid, but when it came to being mischievous, he was a headache. He was also dark and had a small nose and small eyes. Ever since he was born, he had never been praised for his looks.
His personality was also impulsive. A small matter could trick him. He also liked to eat secretly, especially sweet food.
At the thought of this, Li Xu’s head ached.
How could a child not have any good points? What would he do in the future?
He might not even be able to marry a wife!
Li Xu was not greedy. After selling the second batch, she brought the children home.
She took advantage of Sunday to wash the children’s clothes. If the sun was good, it would be dry in two days.
Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi’ang had just moved here and did not have any friends. They would play at home every Sunday, which was very boring.
Although the two brothers were close, they would get tired of playing together often. Ji Zi’ang looked downstairs eagerly.
All of a sudden, Ji Zi’ang’s eyes lit up.
A few children were playing with iron hoops below.
The tools were very simple. It was just an iron hoop and a hook.
The hook hooked the iron hoop and made it run forward.
The one which ran the furthest would win.
“Mommy, I want to go downstairs and play for a while,” Ji Zi’ang could not wait and shouted.
“Just go, remember to come back for dinner later. Don’t play crazily,” Li Xu said casually.
Ji Zi’ang quickly said, “I know.”
Ji Zi’ang still wanted to pull Ji Zixuan along, but Ji Zixuan was different from him. He declined his invitation and sat in front of his desk to do his homework seriously.
He came to call Ji Yuanyuan again, but Ji Yuanyuan was busy. Even if she was not busy, she did not want to play games with these little kids.
Ever since the land was upgraded, Ji Yuanyuan had been particularly interested in the space. Whenever she had time, she would run into the space to ponder.
However, up until now, she had not come up with any tricks.
However, Ji Yuanyuan was still working tirelessly.
Suddenly, Ji Yuanyuan seemed to hear Ji Zi’ang’s scream.
She was stunned for a moment and quickly came out of the space.
She ran to the window and stepped on the stool to look down.
Sure enough, something had happened. Ji Zi’ang was confronting a few children.
The children across from him were all taller and fatter than Ji Zi’ang.
Ji Yuanyuan hurriedly shouted, “Mommy, Second Brother was bullied…”
Li Xu heard his voice and hurriedly wiped her hands before she went downstairs.
Ji Zixuan was also a little anxious. He threw away his pen and was about to leave when he suddenly thought of Ji Yuanyuan. He turned back, took the key, and held Ji Yuanyuan’s hand. Only then did the two of them go downstairs.
When Li Xu and the others went down, a chubby girl stood in front of Ji Zi’ang and thumped her chest loudly, “He’s mine. If any of you bully him, you’ll be making things difficult for me!”
“Pffft…” Ji Yuanyuan could not help but laugh.
This girl was actually her desk mate, the chubby girl.
Ji Zi’ang stood behind the chubby girl and felt that his self-esteem had been insulted.
Being protected by a girl…
When the children saw Li Xu, they glared at the two of them and ran away.
When the fat girl saw this, she shouted at them proudly, “Remember, this is the person I, Yang Jingyi, am protecting.”
Li Xu could not help but laugh. Just as she was about to speak, she saw Yang Jingyi look at Ji Yuanyuan and ask proudly, “Ji Yuanyuan, if anyone bullies your brother in the future, you can tell me.”
Yang Jingyi was a little chubby, and she was a little taller than her peers.
Although she was only in first grade, she was almost as tall as Ji Zi’ang when she stood next to him.
In addition, she was big, so she looked stronger than Ji Zi’ang.
Hearing this, Ji Zi’ang looked as if he had been struck by lightning, “You two are classmates?”
...
Yang Jingyi looked at him strangely, “Don’t you know me? I’m Ji Yuanyuan’s desk mate. Don’t you always come to our class?”
After saying that, she sighed in disappointment.
It turned out that he didn’t remember her.
Seeing this, Li Xu hurriedly said, “Jingyi, right? Come over and play for a while. Auntie will bring you some delicious food.”
Upon hearing the delicious food, Yang Jingyi’s eyes instantly lit up, “Thank you, Auntie.”
She was also a foodie, and she was a perfect match for Ji Zi’ang.
Li Xu brought Yang Jingyi home and brought some peaches and snacks for her. She placed them in Ji Yuanyuan’s room and let the two sisters talk in private.
Ji Zi’ang, on the other hand, was chased back to his room to do his homework.
In the room, Ji Yuanyuan asked curiously, “How did my second brother offend those people?”
They had only gone down for a short while, so why was there a fight.
Yang Jingyi’s eyes were very innocent. She took a bite of the peach, and her eyes were so sweet that they were sparkling.
...
“Your second brother played well with the iron hoop and outplayed those people. In the end, they called your second brother a bastard without a father, and your second brother got angry…”
Yang Jingyi did not react at all. This sentence hurt Ji Yuanyuan as well. After saying that, she looked at Ji Yuanyuan naively.
If it was the young Ji Yuanyuan, she might have been hurt by these words. But now, Ji Yuanyuan had a mature soul in her body. How could she be hurt by these words?
She pursed her lips helplessly.
It had to be said that sometimes, children’s words were also very hurtful.
Yang Jingyi suddenly leaned over and stammered, “Ji Yuanyuan, your Big Brother is really good-looking.”
As she spoke, her saliva dripped out. She hurriedly raised her hand to wipe it off.
Ji Yuanyuan found it a little funny. Such a young child could actually be seduced by beauty.
“My second brother will also be very good-looking when he grows up,” Ji Yuanyuan said deliberately.
