Space Spirit Spring: Farmhouse Qiao Jun’s Wife

"Su Haitang, you are going too far!"

Peng Xin roared angrily and raised his palm to hit someone.

Su Haitang grabbed her wrist and threw her aside without any force!

"Do you really think I'm a soft persimmon? I used to think you were pitiful, and I tried to persuade you a few times. But now it seems that I might as well feed my good intentions to a dog. At least it will wag its tail at me!"

Peng Xin fell heavily to the ground, and what hurt even more was her self-esteem!

"You're calling me worse than a dog?!"

Su Haitang didn't even roll his eyes and walked away without looking back.

It's not worth wasting your time on such a confused person.

"Why did you bully my aunt?"

The child's voice was weak, not as if he was trying to show off, but as if he was confused.

Su Haitang paused, looked at Xu Congrong who looked at a loss, sighed and squatted down, touching his tight little face.

"She scolded me first and then wanted to hit me. Did you see that?"

Xu Congrong hesitated for a moment and nodded slightly.

Su Haitang took out a White Rabbit toffee and stuffed it into his hand.

"I'm just self-defense. I don't want to bully anyone, let alone let others bully me. Adults will take care of matters themselves. You just need to eat enough, sleep well, and study hard. You will understand everything when you grow up."

Xu Congrong glanced at her, lowered his head to peel off the candy wrapper, and muttered softly.

"My dad said that I am already so old and it is time for me to learn to be sensible; but you said that I have to wait until I grow up to be sensible. What you adults say is not reliable at all."

Su Haitang laughed and pinched his little face which was red from the cold.

"Adults are busy with many things, so they often forget what they have said. Children should be more considerate."

"You are still young, don't rush to grow up. When you grow up, you will also catch the same problems as adults."

Xu Congrong stuffed the candy into her mouth, holding the candy wrapper in his hand instead of throwing it away casually.

"Adults always teach us to keep our word, but you said they will forget; you always like to lecture others about things you can't do yourself. You are so hypocritical."

Su Haitang also peeled off a piece of candy and gave it to him, gesturing with his fingers and shushing.

"Remember the story about the Emperor's New Clothes? There are many things that can't be told openly, which will embarrass many people. Your Excellency, you didn't mean it, please forgive me."

Xu Congrong nodded seriously.

"I understand. Ah Miao once said that you can't be strict with others and be lenient with yourself. It's too much to deserve a beating. I don't want to offend others."

Su Haitang adjusted his oversized hat, blew his nose, and gave him a handkerchief.

"Did your dad read you a story again? You remember it right. You have to be broad-minded as a person. Living with worries is too tiring."

Xu Congrong held the flowered handkerchief, and his eyes flashed with unhidden admiration.

"Well, Awang said, the human heart is only as big as a fist. If you pretend to have too many worries, happy things will not come in. You must learn to forget unpleasant things."

Seeing such a sensible child, Su Haitang's heart softened again, and she slowly held his hand and went back. "Are you looking for your aunt?"

"No." The child grasped her finger tightly, with a real smile on his face, without saying that he actually came to see her.

"My aunt will only hold me and not let go when she goes to see my dad, Uncle Nian and Uncle Lu."

"My aunt doesn't like me anymore. She used to smile at me, but now she only hugs me and cries to others. She said that my father and I harmed my mother."

The child's voice dropped and his head hung listlessly.

Su Haitang's palms began to itch again, and she really wanted to wake up Peng Xin, who was doing things in a confused way.

"Xu Congrong!"

Su Haitang knelt down, called the child's name, and looked him in the eyes.

"Your mother has been sick, very seriously. She fell ill and died in the hospital. It has nothing to do with you or anyone else. Remember?"
