Chapter 667: From Now On, We'll Be Under the Same Roof
Chapter 667: From Now On, We'll Be Under the Same Roof
Another troublemaker has appeared. We don't even know how to deal with the one in front of us, and now another one has come along. It's no surprise that this little one's homework is just as bad as her older sister's. So Huang Xiaochuan frowned and asked irritably, "What's wrong?"
The little devil came to complain: "Pingping and Maowa were having a contest to see who could pee the farthest, and they peed into your fishpond."
"Pfft!" Huo Xinyuan couldn't hold back and burst out laughing.
Huang Xiaochuan was furious! He glared at her and said, "You still have the nerve to laugh!"
Then he said to the little devil, "Go and call them both in."
"Okay!" The little devil readily accepted the task, then turned around and led her ugly lackey to the yard to call for help.
"You go do your homework right now. I'll check it later. If you miss even one word, you'll be standing facing the wall in self-reflection. No TV tonight, stay in your room by yourself, understand?" Huang Xiaochuan drew a red line for Liu Jin.
Seeing that her uncle seemed really angry, and following the principle that a wise man doesn't fight a losing battle, Huo Xinyuan quickly and obediently went to do her homework.
Huo Xinyuan had just left when Yu Chengping and Maowa arrived.
"Uncle!"
"Uncle!"
Huang Xiaochuan first turned to the study with a stern face: "Xiaoduo, you go do your homework too! Hurry up, I'll check your homework first later!"
Then he instructed Tang Ruixuan, who was reading a book, "Xuanxuan, keep an eye on Liujin and Xiaoduo for your uncle, and don't let them slack off."
"Uncle, I understand!" Tang Ruixuan accepted this arduous task.
The little devil, with a sullen face, reluctantly led her lackey towards the study.
Only then did Huang Xiaochuan turn to Yu Chengping and Maowa and ask, "Who won?"
Upon hearing this, both men lowered their heads. After a long pause, Mao Wa pointed at Yu Chengping, indicating that Yu Chengping had won.
Yu Chengping raised his head and gave his uncle an embarrassed smile.
Huang Xiaochuan pretended to have a stern face: "You still have the nerve to laugh? You're two years older than Maowa, even if you win, it's not honorable. Tell me! Who came up with this idea?"
Maowa lowered his head and pointed dejectedly at Yu Chengping.
Yu Chengping was quite frank: "It was my idea, but..."
Huang Xiaochuan said irritably, "But what?"
Yu Chengping lowered his head and muttered, "I heard from my dad that you guys used to play like this when you were little, that's why..."
Although the voice grew softer, Huang Xiaochuan heard it clearly. He covered his face and thought, "Damn it, this unlucky brother-in-law, Yu Wei, is talking about this in front of the kids. He's made me lose all face."
He could only lift it high and then gently lower it: "You two are both adults, you're not allowed to play like that anymore, do you hear me?"
The two quickly replied, "We heard you!"
"I heard you!"
"Have you finished your homework?"
Judging from their expressions, it's obvious they didn't do it.
Huang Xiaochuan pointed at him with a stern face: "Go do your homework, everyone. I'll check each one later."
The two little ones went obediently, which shows that they are still afraid of this uncle (younger brother-in-law).
In the evening, "1990 I'm Back" received rave reviews and overwhelming praise! Zeng Xia, who hadn't seen her daughter for several days, came to the Huang family.
"Huh? What are you doing at home?" Zeng Xia looked surprised when she saw Huang Xiaochuan as she entered the room.
"Look at what you're saying!" Huang Xiaochuan said irritably. "Why can't I be at home?"
Zeng Xia burst out laughing: "Hahaha! I misspoke. I've been here several times, but this is the first time I've seen you at home."
Indeed, Huang Xiaochuan has too many things to do. For example, he has to review a large number of documents every day, and he also has to serve as a reviewer for several top economics journals. In addition, he has many children at home, which is always chaotic, so he can't do anything at home. Therefore, he leaves early and returns late every day.
Huang Xiaochuan asked with displeasure, "Who usually supervises Liu Jin's studies? What score did she get on her final exam last semester?"
Zeng Xia was stumped by the question. She blinked and thought for a moment. Huo Miao was busy at the factory, leaving early and returning late every day. Besides work, she had many leisure activities after get off work, such as shopping and eating with her girlfriends, getting her hair done, drinking coffee, etc. She rarely took care of her daughter.
Zeng Xia stammered for a while, then simply shrugged and said, "Nobody cares! She's all grown up, she takes good care of herself!"
Huang Xiaochuan was furious when he heard this! It was truly unbearable.
He angrily pointed at Zeng Xia with his finger: "You! I don't even know what to say to you! Is this how you raise a child? You only care about your own happiness and don't even care about the child's studies!"
Zeng Xia grumbled indignantly, "I'm very busy, okay!"
Huang Xiaochuan heard these words clearly. If she weren't his sister, he would have kicked her out immediately.
After sulking for a while, Huang Xiaochuan thought it over carefully. If Liujin continued like this, it definitely wouldn't work. Relying on his second sister, who only knew how to enjoy life now, seemed hopeless. Second sister's husband? Forget it, he wasn't much better. If Liujin said go east, he wouldn't go west; if his daughter wanted the moon, he wouldn't go to pluck the stars. Uncle and Aunt, Huang Xiaochuan shook his head. These two were getting on in years; they couldn't control this little rascal, Liujin.
After much thought, Huang Xiaochuan decided to keep Liujin at his home. At least Yu Xiang and he would be there to look after her, which was better than her living with this unreliable mother.
"Alright, alright, go ahead and do your thing, okay? Here's the arrangement: Liu Jin will be staying with me from now on. You want to take care of him? He'll just end up like you sooner or later." Huang Xiaochuan said, giving his second sister Zeng Xia a disgruntled glare.
Upon hearing this, Zeng Xia asked with a look of surprise, "Really?"
Then he immediately started making arrangements on his own: "That's great, okay, I'll have your second brother-in-law bring over all six pounds of stuff later."
She looked as if she actually wanted it that way. Huang Xiaochuan silently told himself, "Don't be angry, don't be angry," and forcefully suppressed his anger.
Seeing that her younger brother had taken over the care of their daughter, Zeng Xia left quickly after arriving. She greeted Yu Xiang, exchanged a few pleasantries, and then hurriedly left again. She needed to go home to help her daughter pack her things and then have Huo Miao bring them over later.
Yu Xiang had overheard the siblings' conversation. She knew about her husband's relationship with these two aunts who weren't his biological sisters, so she wasn't surprised at all by Huang Xiaochuan's decision. She also quite liked Liu Jin, the little girl. Apart from being a bit mischievous and not liking to study, she didn't have any major flaws. In some ways, she was quite similar to her own little devil.
However, her only worry was that if the two mischievous kings lived under the same roof, the house would be very lively!
