Chapter 148 Confused
He told Hao Ling to sit down and let An Xin serve their young master well. Ding Niazi didn't care what her mother said, so he went straight to the yard.
This big house is where her mother and Ding Rou live. There are not many rooms in the Ding family. In addition, Ding Xiaohu is a boy and has reached a certain age. It is not easy for him to sleep in the same room with Ding's mother or Ding Rou, so that he can sleep alone in the vacated utility room. Although it was a utility room, it was easy to pick it up under the insistence of Ding's page, which was not much worse than the next room.
Now that Ding Xiaohu is not in the hall, he must be outside.
"Little tiger, little tiger..." Ding Page amplified the volume and shouted loudly.
"Page, I asked Xiaohu to cook tea. Don't call him. When the tea is cooked, he will naturally come over. Don't worry about it. The second aunt Tong took Ding Yizi's arm and dissuaded him with a faint smile.
Ding Shizi frowned and quietly dodged Tong's outstretched hand. She didn't like to have too much intimate physical contact with people she didn't know well. What's more, it was Tong who asked to cook tea just now. Why did he change to Ding Xiaohu in a blink of an eye?
With her understanding of Xiaohu, what he wants to do most at this moment should be to catch up with her sister and have a good talk, right?
Barely pulled a smile on his face. Ding Niazi didn't want to shake his face with Tong, but the smile was obviously three points of alienation. "Second aunt, I'll go and see Xiaohu. Anyway, Xiaohu is also my brother. Today, I have to have to have a good talk with him about the past."
Tong Shi said casually, "It's still the page. Your child has a good heart. What's your brother? It's just living in your house. Page, it's not the second aunt who has bad thoughts about looking at people, but you have to be careful. This is not a family. After all, it's not a family.
The smile on Ding Xiaozi's face gradually couldn't be maintained, and it finally got cold.
"Second aunt, I respect you as my elder. I won't say anything unpleasant, but I hope you know that Xiaohu is my younger brother. Even if we don't have a blood relationship, Xiaohu knelt in front of my father's card. He is my brother, and he will always be. As long as he is still in my Ding's house for a day, he is my younger brother. Please ask my second aunt to pay attention to what he says in the future. I don't want Xiaohu to hear these words. He is still a child, and it's easy to think too much.
Without these words, Ding Page still stubbornly walked to the kitchen.
Tong Shi quickly dodged in front of Ding Page. She still has something to ask for Ding Page today. She seemed to be a little unhappy just now. Wouldn't she be annoyed?
Tong rubbed his hands and smiled awkwardly, but he still said stubbornly, "Page, it's not your second aunt. I talk too much. I also know that it's not easy for you to hold on in this family after your father's absence, but it's not easy to be more careful. What's the saying? You can't have the intention of harming others, and you can't have the intention of preventing others. Second aunt, I'm also for your own good. Do you think so?
Taking advantage of the time just now, Ding Page also made a rough idea. Although she didn't know what had happened, thinking about what Tong said and her mother's reaction just now, there was no doubt that Xiaohu's life at home in the past few days was not good at all.
Before she got married, in order to prevent family trouble, she specially held a meeting and made arrangements for the distribution of family property. Unexpectedly, Ding's mother's soft ears still did not listen to her.
"Second aunt, I know what you said is true, but I don't know if you have heard a saying that you don't doubt people? You'd better ask your second aunt to get out of the way first. I'll see Xiaohu before I talk about it.
Ding Baizi bypassed Tong's body and strode into the kitchen.
As an elder, Ding Baizi actually doesn't take her words like this. How can Tong not be angry? What's more, she has always been a strong person. She usually makes the decision on things in the family. Even her mother-in-law dares not give her half a look on her face. How dare Ding Yizi not listen to her?
Tong Shi was so angry that he raised his thick eyebrows and stared angrily at the figure of Ding Page in the kitchen.
Ding's mother is the most old man. Seeing that her second sister-in-law is so angry, thinking of her great achievements in the past, she hurried forward to hold her arm and persuaded her kindly, "I said her second aunt, she is still a child on the page. Let's have something to say. Don't be angry with her."
Tong deliberately lowered the volume and tried not to let Ding Zhizi hear it. He snorted coldly and whispered, "How dare I be angry? Now your daughter is well-developed. My second aunt is just a decoration. It's okay if she is disobedient.
"Look at what you said. No matter what she is, she can't escape the fact that you are her elder. Go to the room quickly and don't be angry here."
Ding's mother pulled Tong slightly and advised her to sit in the room. There was really no need to vent her anger with a child.
But Ding Niazi went to the stove and saw Ding Xiaohu sitting silently behind the stove to burn the fire. His face was extremely lonely and lost. His whole body seemed to have added a sense of loneliness. The little tiger who laughed all day before was gone.
Ding Xiaozi's heart tightened and he was reluctant to feel sad. In the final analysis, Ding Xiaohu is still a child and an orphan without a father or mother. She once had a deep understanding of his current situation and thoughts. It is because he understands his situation that he has always regarded him as his own brother and let him know that this is his home, and it will always be his home in the future. Who would have thought that she had spent so long thinking that she was broken in three days.
In the final analysis, maybe she is too naive. She can sincerely treat Xiaohu as her own family. Can her mother and Ding Rou really do it?
Looking at Ding Xiaohu, who only lowered his head and didn't raise his head, Ding Xiaozi apologized and said, "Xiaohu, I'm sorry, I didn't know these things would happen."
Ding Xiaohu still didn't look up. He folded a few branches and put them in the stove. He whispered, "Sister, I'm fine. I'm just burning a fire. There are still many relatives in the hall, and the eldest brother-in-law is also here. You'd better hurry up and accompany them.
Ding Page ** heard that Ding Xiaohu's voice was very wrong. Without a moment's hesitation, he stepped forward and reached out to lift Ding Xiaohu's chin, but he saw that his eyes were red, there were tears in his eyes, and his teeth tightly bit his lower lip, as if he was afraid of making a bad sound.
Ding Page never thought that the naive and cheerful Ding Xiaohu would have such a scene today? Thinking of my past, a kind of pain arises spontaneously. She bit her lower lip and looked at Ding Xiaohu guiltily, "Xiaohu, tell me, what's going on? Is it that I'm not here, and my mother and Rou'er bully you? Tell me the truth, don't worry, I recognized you as my younger brother, and you have been my younger brother all your life! If others treat you unfairly, I will definitely get justice for you!"
Ding Xiaohu shook his head stubbornly, pulled his nose, reluctantly pulled up the corners of his mouth and smiled, "Sister, I'm fine. My mother and second sister are very good to me. Don't worry."
"Little Tiger!" Ding Yizi frowned and shouted harshly, "Do you think I'm a fool? Can't I see this little thing? If you don't tell me again, I'll ask my mother and Rou'er to go!"
Ding Xiaohu lowered his head silently and didn't say a word. He reached out and broke a few branches and threw them into the stove, making the fire inside a little bigger.
Ding Yizi stood up, took a deep breath, and said in a low voice, "Okay, since you don't say it, I'll ask my mother now."
After saying that, Ding Page hurried to the hall.
In front of so many relatives, Hao Ling and some of Hao's subordinates are also there. Naturally, Ding Page will not say something to her mother face to face. Isn't that just hitting himself?
"Mom, come with me." Ding Yezi took Ding's mother's hand and asked her to go to the east room to talk with her.
The atmosphere in the hall was very good. Everyone sat around both sides of Hao Ling, with a flattering smile on their faces and didn't know what they were talking about. Even Tong, who was sulking in the yard just now, is full of smiles at this moment, as if there is sugar in his mouth.
Ding's mother has lived with Ding Page for so long, and she also knew her temper. Although she saw a smile on her face, her eyes were very cold. She nodded quickly and followed Ding Page to the East House.
As soon as the mother entered the room, Ding Yizi closed the door.
"Mother, tell me the truth, how do you and Rouer treat Xiaohu after I'm not in this house?"
Ding's mother's face stiffened, her eyebrows tightened, and she said angrily, "Did Xiaohu say something to you?"
Seeing Ding's mother's reaction, Ding Page was more and more sure that Xiaohu's life at home must be a bad life.
"Mom, do you think Xiaohu is the kind of person who can complain? He didn't tell me anything, but you also heard what the second aunt said just now. If it hadn't been for you and Rou'er's attitude towards Xiaohu, would the second aunt say something like that? Xiaohu is the one who knelt in front of his father's card, and he is also recognized by the clans. Then he is my own brother, and there will be no other problems. Ding Zizi suppressed his anger and said righteously.
Ding's mother was quite sad and said, "Page, I know what you mean, but Xiaohu is not your own brother."
After getting a definite reply from Ding's mother, Ding Page asked angrily, "Mom, why are you so confused?"
Ding's mother blinked her eyes at a loss and asked puzzledly, "Why am I confused? Your uncles said it should be like this."
Ding's page sighed disappointedly. It's all because she didn't think of the mouths of those relatives in advance. Ding's mother is a soft ear, and Ding Rou is nothing more. If those relatives say it, it's no wonder that her mother is not confused.
