Chapter 450: Chapter 450: The Zhang Family Arrives

“Don’t think about it anymore, it’s all in the past. Your life is getting better now, so don’t dwell on those unhappy things.” Seeing the frown on Qiao Xiaomai’s face and her reddening eyes, Zhuang Jia quickly chimed in to comfort her.

Hua Xiaofeng also huffed, “It’s in the past, don’t think about it. In the future, we’ll find your mother and your family can live a peaceful life.”

“Okay.” Qiao Xiaomai’s face mustered a forced smile, “Uncle, grandma, it’s almost noon, let me cook.”

“Cook, cook, I’ll take care of the fire.” Zhuang Jia exclaimed in excitement.

From a young age, he was spoiled by Zhuang Lühe and Hua Xiaofeng, which resulted in him being lazy and having a carefree attitude. Even when they were poor, he did not find life difficult and was always cheerful.

Honestly speaking, he is not a good man with such traits.

But, all he does is eat and laze around, with a gentle temperament, causes no trouble, carries a smile for everyone.

In Qiao’s family, where eccentric people are everywhere, he was a rare good person.

Moreover, he had helped out Zhuang Lühe before. Although he only gave a few pennies each time, it was a great help to the Qiao family at that time.

Therefore, Qiao Xiaomai was willing to accept him with a smile on her face.

“You sit down, it’s so hot; I’ll handle the fire.” Hua Xiaofeng held him back and said irritably, “You are only hardworking when it comes to eating, you lazybum!”

“No need, mother, rest. This sour plum soup is so good. Have some more.” Zhuang Jia stood up, saw the pile of firewood in the shed, walked over and took some to the kitchen.

Hua Xiaofeng got up and started to wander around.

Seeing the wooden box used for sprouting beans, she asked Qiao Xiaomai what it was for.

Qiao Xiaomai explained about the bean sprouts, “Perfect, there are some at home, you can try them later.”

Hua Xiaofeng agreed, “Okay.”

So the three of them chatted casually and started preparing lunch together.

Soon after, Qiao Changshun and Qiao Dami arrived back home.

Upon seeing Qiao Dami first, Hua Xiaofeng smiled but then started to curse Qiao Changshun.

Words like coward and weakling were thrown at Qiao Changshun as if they were free. Pointing at Qiao Changshun’s face, she splattered him with her spittle.

Qiao Changshun lowered his head and rubbed his hands, letting Hua Xiaofeng shout at him.

He owed Zhuang Lühe too much; this was something he deserved to bear.

“Enough, mother, come eat, Changshun didn’t do it on purpose.” After watching Hua Xiaofeng’s tirade go on for a while, Zhuang Jia interrupted her and coaxed Hua Xiaofeng to sit down.

“Humph, I just want him to know that our Zhuang family isn’t weak, he shouldn’t think about bullying your sister. I’m telling you Qiao Changshun, when Xiaohe comes back, not only are you not allowed to despise her, but you must also compensate her!” Hua Xiaofeng stated.

Qiao Changshun nodded, “As long as she comes back, I will definitely treat her well.”

“That’s more like it!” Satisfied with the answer, Hua Xiaofeng stopped arguing and sat down at the table with Zhuang Jia’s coaxing.

Qiao Xiaomai looked at Qiao Dami and watched as he tilted his little face to look at Hua Xiaofeng, smiled, and said, “What’s all this talk about despising or not despising? My mother went out to work to earn money. When she comes back, my dad will only cherish her more.”

It was only then that Hua Xiaofeng realized she had spilled the beans and quickly slapped her face lightly. Then turned to glared at Qiao Changshun, “It’s all your fault not standing up for yourself! You make me look like a fool!”

“Alright, Father, come and eat.” Qiao Xiaomai ruffled Qiao Dami’s hair and called for Qiao Changshun.

Qiao Changshun acknowledged and walked to the well to wash his hands with his limp.

Just then, the courtyard door rang, “Hello, is Qiao Xiaomai here?”

“Who is it?” Qiao Changshun responded.

“It’s me.” The courtyard door opened, revealing the figure of Zhang’s family at the entrance.
