I trade in both worlds

Second Aunt Xu shook her head and said angrily, "No, the whole family is full of ruthless people."

The Second Mistress looked down upon what the Yang family did. Because she was concerned about Xu Xu, she had to do things her way. Why would she want such a family of in-laws? She didn't know why Xu Jizu and his wife fell in love with Yang Erzhu.

Although that person is smart, his eyes are always moving around when he looks at people, and you can tell at a glance that he is cunning. It would be fine if he used his cunning in the right way, but looking at his family's attitude towards Xu Xu, you can tell that this person is not a righteous person at all.

The Yang family is putting the entire Xu family under their feet by doing this: "The Yang family does things so rudely and without courtesy. Who else in the surrounding area would do things this way? It's probably hard to get along with such a family. Xuxu probably won't have an easy time in her husband's family either."

Second Aunt Xu was also helpless. The family that seemed good when they proposed marriage had now done things that even the Xu family felt ashamed of: "Who said it wasn't true? That child always reported good news but never bad news."

Second Grandma Xu thought that there was no point in saying more now. The child had already been born, so she should think about what to do next: "I guess my in-laws are unreliable. Did Xuxu tell me what her plans are for the future?"

Second Aunt Xu was also very worried. She didn't know what Xuxu was thinking. She shook her head and said, "No, we haven't mentioned it yet because we've been busy with her mother's affairs recently. There's no point in worrying now. Let's see what Xuxu wants to do. We'll help her fight to the end. Besides, we have two younger brothers here, so we can still talk about it later."

Second Grandma also knew that Xu Xu probably didn't have the heart to think about this problem right now, so she said helplessly, "This is the only way. We'll take it one step at a time. I don't believe that God will block Xu Xu's path."

Second Aunt Xu didn't want to say too much. After all, she didn't know what Xu Xu was thinking. "That's right. Xu Xu is a blessed child."

At night, Xu Xu lay on the bed, staring at the bedpost with lifeless eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

Xu Jin carefully stayed close to Xu Xu, his heart feeling like a drifting boat, helpless and not knowing what would happen next.

Seeing my sister so sad, I didn't want to add to her burden, so I had to bear it myself. I have become more and more silent in the past few days. I used to quarrel and fight with my brother, but this has not happened recently.

After Xu Xu came back to her senses, she saw Xu Jin leaning against her in a panic, and asked in a low voice: "Xiao Jin, are you scared? That's mother, don't be afraid, mother will not hurt us no matter what."

Xu Jin pulled Xu Xu's sleeve and said, "I'm not afraid of mother. I'm not afraid of mother. I miss her."

Thinking of his younger brother who lost his parents at a young age and became insecure, Xu Xu hugged Xu Jin distressedly and comforted him: "Mom will be watching over us in heaven."

Xu Jin looked at Xu Xu in surprise: "Really? Then can I see my mother?"

Seeing the expectation in Xu Jin's eyes, Xu Xu sat up with Xu Jin, opened the window, pointed to the sky and said, "The two brightest stars are our parents. They will always be watching us from the sky."

Looking up at the stars in the sky, not knowing which one is my parents, Xu Jin asked Xu Xu disappointedly: "Sister, I don't know which star is the brightest, do you know which one is my parents?"

"Xiao Jin, you don't have to look for it. Just look based on your feelings. The one that makes you feel at ease and the one that you feel is the brightest is your parents."

Xu Jin looked up at the starry sky with a vague understanding. After a while, he pointed at the sky and said, "The brightest one is my parents."

"Yeah." Xu Xu touched Xu Jin's head and looked out the window. The stars in the night sky were twinkling with soft light.

Xu Xu seemed to see countless souls watching everything in the world. At this moment, Xu Xu's uneasy heart was soothed, or perhaps his parents really turned into stars and were silently watching over them at this moment.

Thinking of this, Xu Xu felt that his whole body had become a lot lighter, and the air that had been blocking his chest disappeared in an instant.

After thinking it over, his mood became lighter. Looking at Xu Jin, Xu Xu suddenly remembered his panic-stricken look. He reached out and hugged Xu Jin and asked, "Xiao Jin, what were you afraid of just now?"

Xu Jin curled up in Xu Xu's arms, with his head lowered. He bit his lip, looked up at Xu Xu, and then continued to lower his head. His two little hands were twisting like a dough twist, constantly stirring back and forth.

Xu Xu patted Xu Jin's arm and asked softly, "Can't you tell your sister?"

"No." Xu Jin shook his head, mustered up the courage to ask in a low voice: "Sister, can my brother and I follow you in the future?"

Xu Xu looked at Xu Jin in surprise: "That's for sure. If you don't live with this sister, who will you live with? Who said anything to you?"

"Really?" Xu Jin turned around and put his arms around Xu Xu's neck.

Seeing Xu Xu nodded, he continued happily: "No one said anything, it was my own idea. My brother and I want to follow my sister. Wherever my sister is, we will be there."

Thinking about how his younger brother had to bear so much at such a young age, and how he was only concerned with being sad and ignoring their worries, Xu Xu blamed herself and said, "Have you been worrying that your sister doesn't want you these days?"

"Yeah." Xu Jin nodded embarrassedly.

Pinching Xu Jin's cheeks, I found that his chubby little face was now covered with only a thin layer of skin.

Xu Xu said distressedly: "Xiao Jin, I'm sorry, I've been too busy these days and didn't have time to tell you, from now on my home is your home, you go wherever I am, and you eat whatever I eat."

Xu Jin happily responded: "Okay~"

Seeing his happy look, Xu Xu rubbed his head: "Okay, it's time to go to bed. Children won't grow tall if they don't sleep, and they won't be able to support their sister when the time comes."

Xu Jin quickly left Xu Xu's arms, crawled to his own position and lay down, closing his eyes: "I will grow taller, and support my sister when I grow up."

Xu Xu closed the window, lay down next to Xu Jin, and replied with a smile: "Okay."

The child was simple-minded and forgetful. Once he knew that he would live with his sister in the future, he felt at ease and began to feel sleepy. Not long after Xu Xu finished speaking, Xu Jin fell asleep.

The next morning, Xu Xu got up and tidied up Zhang Yunxiang's room, washed some rice and put it in the pot to cook porridge. After Xu Jin got up, he took him to Xu Jizong's house to pick up a few children.

As soon as he arrived at Xu Jizong's door, he heard someone calling him. Xu Xu turned around and saw that it was the clan leader's grandson Xu Jianli, who called out, "Brother Jianli, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Xu Jizong and Second Aunt Xu came out from the yard when they heard Xu Xu's voice. Second Aunt Xu asked, "Xu Xu, who are you talking to?"

Xu Xu pointed to Xu Jianli who was not far away and said, "Brother Jianli is calling me."

Aunt Xu asked Xu Jianli: "Jianli, what's up so early in the morning?"

Xu Jianli said shyly, "Uncle Jizong, Aunt Jizong, Xiaoxu, Xiaojin, good morning. Yesterday, Xu Laizi asked a few people to come to our house to talk about Uncle Jizong's land. My grandfather asked you to go there together after dinner."
