Take a Sip of Milk to Calm My Nerves, the Whole Family is Waiting for Me to Save Them – Chapter 45

Ch 45: Chou Chou is Furious

Chou Chou was lying peacefully on the ground, surrounded by three handsome young masters. Little Fish expressed on the spot that her fish life was complete.

Most importantly, Eldest Brother’s study wasn’t actually used for studying!

【The fluffy blanket was perfect for Chou Chou to show off her agile figure, the tiger-head doll was Chou Chou’s little pillow, and the bamboo woven trinkets were Chou Chou’s sleep-inducing artifacts…】

【This isn’t Eldest Brother’s study, this should be Chou Chou’s study!】

Chou Chou’s constant nagging made her two brothers’ faces turn red. Not liking to study and hiding these things in the study was one thing, but being dragged out and flogged by their young Younger Sister was another.

Su Xiucheng: “Stop talking, it’s impolite to continue.”

Xue Zheng, who was observing the Su family siblings’ daily interactions, was stunned: “I didn’t say anything.”

Su Xiucheng glanced at him: “I wasn’t talking about you.”

Xue Zheng: Is there anyone else talking here?

Su Jingwen tried to smooth things over, giggling foolishly: “He was talking about me.”

Xue Zheng’s expression was subtle: “Then you two brothers really have a telepathic connection, no wonder you’re twins.”

“Hehe!” The brothers didn’t know what to say, so they just gave an awkward laugh.

Chou Chou’s arms had strength, she propped herself up to look around, then shivered and shrank back. Her round eyes stared at Xue Zheng, her gaze never leaving him.

After Xue Zheng’s mother passed away, he didn’t have a good life in the Xue Family, and his body suffered. Although he was taken to the Prince Ying’s Mansion in the Capital City and cared for for a few years, he still didn’t like to eat, and he was thin. Even standing next to Su Jingwen, he looked much thinner, not to mention being made to look like a thin bamboo pole by Su Xiucheng.

Chou Chou touched his bony hand: 【Young Master, you’re so pitiful~】

Xue Zheng poked a dimple on Chou Chou’s face, but the expected crying didn’t come.

He was puzzled, doesn’t this child cry? For so long, she only fake-cried twice just now and didn’t even squeeze out any tears.

“Does she cry?”

【I don’t like to cry.】

Chou Chou sniffled, looking like a brave baby. But this Young Master will cry often in the future.

She patted Xue Zheng’s leg again, earnestly asking with her eyes: 【Young Master, won’t your leg break?】

【I’ll secretly tell you, that bad person is in my house, I’ll take you to catch him later!】

Su Jingwen stopped his movement to pick Chou Chou up. The person who wanted to harm Xue Zheng’s leg was actually in their house?

Xue Zheng was a little unaccustomed, seeming a little uncomfortable with the overly familiar Chou Chou. He asked the brothers: “Is she this familiar with everyone?”

Su Xiucheng pressed Chou Chou’s little chubby hand. Xue Zheng looked at it and “tsk”ed softly, “So chubby!”

Chou Chou: 【@##！%……*&◈◈◈**！】

Su Xiucheng wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and quickly turned Chou Chou to face the other direction.

The little baby’s cursing is quite foul too!

He said to his friend with a serious face: “My Younger Sister doesn’t like people saying she’s fat.”

Xue Zheng had already seen it, the three-month-old baby had even learned to roll her eyes, it seemed she really didn’t like it.

Su Xiucheng added: “But you can say she’s plump.”

Xue Zheng: “???”

What’s with this weird family?

Su Jingwen coughed lightly to interrupt their conversation, he was still concerned about Xue Zheng’s leg. He wanted to know who the culprit was!

“By the way, Xue Zheng, what exactly happened with the frightened horse in East of the City?”

The smile on Xue Zheng’s face faded instantly, “It’s just that little thing.”

“Someone from the Xue Family?” Su Jingwen was surprised, the Xue Family was thousands of miles away from the Capital City, how could they have such long arms!

It wasn’t a secret in the Capital City that Xue Zheng was at odds with his Xue Clan. Back then, the Xue Family’s Heir died tragically in the Capital City, and the culprit was suspected to be Jin Yunsheng, the hostage from the neighboring country, but they couldn’t act due to the lack of solid evidence.

When investigating the matter deeply, Xue Zheng’s birth mother was implicated. Talented men and beautiful women were most eye-catching, and the County Lord couldn’t defend herself. When rumors spread throughout the Capital City, the Xue Family’s Second Son, who came to the Capital City to collect his Eldest Brother’s body, actually brought the Xue Family’s Dan Shu Iron Coupon to propose marriage to the County Lord.

◈◈◈

In order to quell the rumors, to appease the hearts of the aristocratic families and consolidate imperial power, Prince Ying could only marry his youngest Daughter to the Xue Family.

It’s just that the Xue Family’s Second Son already had a concubine and a son born of her. Proposing marriage to the County Lord was only to humiliate her. Unfortunately, the County Lord suffered for ten years in the Xue Family and eventually died in childbirth…

And the Xue Family, fearing that the Imperial Court would blame them, promised that everything in the Xue Family would be inherited by Xue Zheng in the future, and he would be the only Heir.

So, if Xue Zheng doesn’t die, some people’s hearts won’t be at peace!

“My Dad legitimized the Aunt, if I don’t die, his precious son can only be a Son Born of a Concubine for the rest of his life. If he enters the Imperial Court in the future, he will only invite ridicule and exclusion from his colleagues.”

Even Su Xiucheng, who didn’t like to use his brain, was dumbfounded, “But your Maternal Grandfather is Prince Ying! If I remember correctly, your Aunt’s Eldest Brother is a Hanlin Academician, your Dad he…” Is he out of his mind!

After all, he’s his own Dad, so some things are hard to say directly.

It can only be said that Xue Zheng’s Dad isn’t afraid that Xue Zheng’s brother’s official career will be too smooth, but rather hopes that he will be demoted and sent back to his hometown as soon as possible!

He has to offend the people he shouldn’t offend!

“He doesn’t even have as much sense as our Chou Chou!”

【Eldest Brother, what are you making up about me again?】

Chou Chou didn’t understand, and felt that her brain was full of paste.

How did it become Xue Zheng’s Eldest Brother’s Dad harming him again?

He’s clearly the Male Lead!

Xue Zheng crossed his arms, and when he looked up again, he had an arrogant posture: “So my Dad’s wishful thinking failed. The frightened horse didn’t trample me to death, but his precious son who drugged the horse is going to be finished!”

How could the Young Master raised with golden spoons in Prince Ying’s Mansion be easily damaged by the sinister methods in the backyard!

Your Majesty summoned Uncle into the Palace yesterday to appease him, and will reveal this matter after the Spring Examination, and then shatter the Xue Family’s beautiful dream.

Killing people is nothing more than that!

“Master He has found out that before we went to the riding and shooting class, he poured a packet of Mixin Cao into the trough. Now there are witnesses and physical evidence, waiting for Xue Hui to climb to the highest point after the Spring Examination and then fall heavily!”

The Xue Family all said that Xue Hui had the style of his Granduncle, I wonder if the Granduncle knew under the springs that his family compared him with a villain like Xue Hui, would he be so angry that he would come back to life.

“Mixin Cao?” Su Jingwen found this thing a bit familiar.

Xue Zheng: “Yes, it is said to be a unique plant from Jiangnan. Whether it’s people or animals, as long as they take a large amount of it, they will lose their minds. What, do you also know Mixin Cao?”

It’s unclear whether Su Jingwen knows, but Chou Chou knows very well!

【Harmful grass!】

【Wants to harm Mother, and also wants to harm Third Uncle, and now also harms Young Master Xue Zheng!】

【Burn it all, burn it all! Chou Chou is so angry! Burn it all ahhhhh!!!】

Xue Zheng couldn’t hear Chou Chou’s inner voice, he only saw this little baby suddenly clenching her fists and making herself half dead with anger, her face was flushed.

“She, what’s wrong with her?”

Is she hungry or did she poop?

Su Jingwen calmly glanced at Chou Chou: “Oh, she’s indignant for you!”

Xue Zheng heavily patted Su Jingwen’s shoulder: “Brother Jingwen, your Younger Sister is really loyal! Don’t worry, your Younger Sister will be my Younger Sister from now on! Hehe, I don’t have a Younger Sister yet!”

He’s the youngest in Prince Ying’s Mansion.

Su Xiucheng reminded him: “You have four or five Younger Sisters in the Xue Family, you’ve been in the Capital City for a few years, maybe there are several more.”

“That doesn’t count!”

Su Xiucheng felt that this guy was just coveting his Younger Sister, and was about to flare up when Dongxiao ran in panic, “Three Young Masters, quickly come with me to an open space!”

“The backyard is on fire!”
