“Did you bring that little brat here again?”
Jiang Li was stunned for a moment before realizing that Yue Ji was talking about Fu Jiuxiao. She felt a little helpless. She did not know why her adoptive father had such a prejudice against Fu Jiuxiao.
Jiang Li nodded, and Yue Ji had a sad expression.
His daughter had grown up, and she was going to run away with another man.
“Dad, he is very good to me. You should put aside your prejudice and observe him. You will know how good he is.”
“Look, you haven’t even married yet, but you’re already speaking up for him.”
Yue Ji pretended to be a little dissatisfied.
“Is it very busy at home? Why isn’t mom accompanying you?”
Knowing Yue Ji’s personality, Jiang Li planned to skip this topic. Otherwise, Yue Ji might keep asking Jiang Li about Fu Jiuxiao.
It was better to leave this to time. She believed that Yue Ji would know about Fu Jiuxiao in the future.
At the mention of Kong Xia, Yue Ji felt a little disappointed.
The couple had always been very close, and they had never been apart before. However, there was nothing he could do this time.
Something happened at home in the herbal field. Kong Xia had been busy with that matter for the past two days, so she did not have much time to visit Yue Ji. Although he felt a little uncomfortable, he was at least so old that he could not be as willful as before.
When she heard that something had happened to the herbal field at home, Jiang Li was a little surprised and serious.
Jiang Li still knew how important the herbal field was to Kong Xia. That herbal field was simply Kong Xia’s third child.
Yue Ji did not want Jiang Li to worry at first, but he accidentally let the cat out of the bag and became a little flustered. If Kong Xia knew that Yue Ji had let the cat out of the bag, she would probably nag at him for a long time.
Under Jiang Li’s direct gaze and interrogation, Yue Ji finally spilled the beans.
After that, Yue Ji even told Jiang Li to tell Kong Xia that Yue Qing told Jiang Li about it when Kong Xia asked.
Jiang Li felt a little helpless, but she still agreed.
Yue Qing, who was dozing off outside, sneezed for some reason. He looked at Fu Jiuxiao reflexively, but Fu Jiuxiao was still resting with his eyes closed, which made Yue Qing frown.
Yue Ji told Jiang Li what had happened in the past two days.
It turned out that Kong Xia’s rental of the herbal field had expired, and she forgot to renew it because of Yue Ji’s car accident. The seller gave the herbal field to a developer at a high price.
This was undoubtedly digging Kong Xia’s heart.
Both sides were still anxious, and Kong Xia had been dealing with the developer for the past two days.
“Why don’t you let Yue Qing handle this?”
“Ah Qing has been very busy recently. If we can handle this matter ourselves, then let’s do it ourselves. Don’t cause trouble for our children.”
“What’s there to be busy about?”
Jiang Li frowned. ‘Didn’t Yue Qing just stay at home and write every day?’
“I’ll handle this matter.”Jiang Li was also a little angry. “What’s there to hide from us? Mother has just recovered. How can we let her work so hard?”
Then, Jiang Li said a lot of reasoning, which made Yue Ji unable to think straight. He was taught a good lesson by Jiang Li.
When Jiang Li came out, she did not look very good, which made Fu Jiuxiao and Yue Qing feel a little strange.
“What’s wrong?”
Fu Jiuxiao was a little worried.
“What’s wrong with you again?”
Yue Qing asked in a bad mood.
Jiang Li glared at Yue Qing, but she only returned to Fu Jiuxiao.
“I have to go back to the countryside to see my mom’s herbal field.”
“What’s wrong with mom’s herbal field?”
Yue Qing heard Jiang Li’s words and felt that something was wrong. He was worried that something had happened to Kong Xia.
“It’s okay. I’ll take care of it. You just take care of dad!”
“What do you mean?”
Yue Qing was very angry when he heard that. “She’s my biological mother. Why can’t I take care of her? What are you pretending for?”
“I’m too lazy to explain it to you.”
As Jiang Li was about to take Fu Jiuxiao away, Yue Qing grabbed her arm.
“Speak clearly, or else don’t even think about leaving!”
Fu Jiuxiao glanced at Yue Qing’s hand that was holding Jiang Li’s arm, and he frowned.
“You’d better let go of your hand.”
The three of them were in a stalemate for a while.
In the end, seeing that the atmosphere was about to drop to the freezing point, Jiang Li spoke first.
“Something happened at mom’s herbal field. The couple didn’t want to tell us. I have to go and see what’s going on. You stay and take care of dad.”
Yue Qing was still a little unhappy.
“Why should you go? Why can’t I go?”
“What do you think?”Jiang Li rolled her eyes. “You don’t know anything about property rights disputes. You only know how to write your books every day. Can you solve the problem if you go?”
“…”
Yue Qing’s words were stuck in his throat, and he could not say anything.
Fu Jiuxiao could not stand it anymore, so he pulled Jiang Li’s hand away and held it.
Yue Qing, “…”
