After Bai Wenjing finished speaking, Xue Baijun grumbled impatiently, “Mother, are you muddle-headed? This matter isn’t our fault, and it wasn’t Yao Lai Fu who suggested it. Even if it’s wrong, it’s Yao Lai Fu’s fault. Xiaohua, don’t you think so?”
As Xue Baijun spoke, he glared fiercely at Xue Xiaohua. Xue Xiaohua quickly nodded and echoed, “Y-yes, it was all instigated by Yao Lai Fu. It has nothing to do with me and Big Brother.”
“Nothing to do with you? Hehe!” Bai Wenjing sneered, she asked in return, “Then let me ask you if you had listened to me, how would such a thing have happened? I don’t know about others, but Xue Baijun, I don’t know what kind of character you have. Tell me, if it wasn’t for you, would Yao Lai Fu have dared to dig up his ancestral grave?”
Xue Baijun did not speak. He clenched his small fists and glared at Bai Wenjing fiercely. This look that seemed like he was going to eat her made Bai Wenjing feel guilty.
She could not help but sigh in her heart. A villain was indeed a villain. This was just a ten-year-old little doll, yet the murderous aura that erupted from her actually made her back feel cold.
At the same time, she was secretly rejoicing. If not for Xue Baijun’s young age, would his clenched fists have already greeted her face?
No, no, she had to teach this brat a lesson. It was not easy for her to live again, how could she die such a cowardly death?
Bai Wenjing swallowed her saliva and shifted her gaze to Xue Xiaohua, asking, “Tell me, is this the truth?”
Xue Xiaohua had a mournful look on her face. She timidly glanced at Xue Baijun and softly said, “I, I don’t know.”
What should she do?
Why was it so hard to be a mother? Could these two devilish children be remade?
No, if she did not take down these two devilish children today, what dignity would she have in this family in the future?
Kill the chicken to make an example of the monkey. Bai Wenjing glanced at the three children. The bowl of vegetable porridge that Xue Bainian was holding had already been finished. At this time, her little tongue was sticking out to lick the bowl. Xue Baijun was also a tough person, so the only thing that was easy to handle was Xue Xiaohua.
She swept her gaze over and happened to see that Xue Xiaohua seemed to be holding something in his hand. She immediately raised her voice and asked, “What are you holding in your hand?”
“Nothing.”
Xue Xiaohua’s hand instantly tightened and hid behind his back. Bai Wenjing directly pulled Xue Xiaohua’s hand out and opened it with her fingers. She saw a pair of beautiful pearl earrings.
Bai Wenjing’s head instantly grew bigger. These two devilish children had stolen someone’s roast chicken when she opened her eyes. Ever since the baby’s father had left, her family had been extremely poor. Not to mention such pearl earrings… even two such white grains of rice could not be found now.
It was very obvious that the pearl earrings in Xue Xiaohua’s hands were stolen.
Bai Wenjing covered her chest and took a deep breath. She pinched the pearl earrings and asked, “Honestly speaking, where did you get those things?”
Xue Xiaohua did not speak. She looked at her with tears in her eyes and kept shaking her head.
“You’re not going to tell me, are you? Fine, I see that all of you are itching to be taught a lesson. Do you think that your mother is easy to bully?”
Bai Wenjing said angrily as she looked around. At that moment, she saw a wooden stick in her hand. She walked up to Xue Xiaohua with two or three steps, she questioned loudly again. “I’m going to ask you one last time, where did you get that thing!?”
Seeing the wooden stick in Bai Wenjing’s hand, Xue Xiaohua finally knew that she was afraid. At that moment, she burst into tears. While crying, she said, “The thing is Ernie… yes, I stole Ernie’s…”
“You!”
Bai Wenjing raised the wooden stick in her hand in exasperation, in an instant, Xue Xiaohua pounced on Bai Wenjing’s leg and hugged it tightly as she cried, “Mother, I was wrong. I was really wrong. Don’t hit me anymore. I won’t dare to take other people’s things anymore… sob sob sob…”
Xue Xiaohua cried until her heart was torn apart. Bai Wenjing finally understood that the devilish brat still needed to be greeted with a wooden stick. The method of reasoning would not work at all.
Thus, she struck while the iron was hot and said sternly, “You know your mistakes?
“Hmph, I see that you guys have really grown up. I even told you guys last time that you can’t take other people’s things. Each and every one of you ignored my words!
“And you, Xue Baijun. Don’t think that the responsibility this time is all on Yao Laifu. Without your instigation, he, Yao Laifu, wouldn’t be able to succeed either…”
“Ah!”
Before Bai Wenjing could finish her words, Xue Baijun suddenly shouted loudly and lowered his head to collide with her. She did not notice that this brat had hit her heavily on the stomach with his head.
Xue Baijun, who was shoulder-high, was already quite strong. This collision caused Bai Wenjing to stagger a few steps.
It was truly heaven-defying. This devilish brat had bitten her previously, and the wound on the back of her hand had not recovered yet. Now, he actually used this move again!
If she did not subdue him this time, would he be using a kitchen knife to slash her next time?
No, she had to teach this little brat a lesson today.
“Little brat, I’ll teach you a lesson today!”
Bai Wenjing said as she raised the wooden stick in her hand and walked towards Xue Baijun, who was currently glaring fiercely at her, Xue Xiaohua once again pounced in front of her and stopped her. “Mother, don’t hit big brother. Big brother did not do it on purpose. Big brother, quickly comes and begs mother. Just say that you’re wrong…”
Xue Xiaohua shouted until her voice cracked. She knew that her mother was really angry this time. She also knew that if she did not stop her mother, this big brother would have to settle the score with her later on.
At this moment, there was a dong sound. Bai Wenjing heard the sound and looked over. She did not know when Xue Bainian had climbed onto the table. At this moment, his foot slipped and the back of his head fell to the ground. He instantly burst into tears.
This time, he was really hurt from the fall. His small face was blue from crying. Bai Wenjing could not care less. She pushed Xue Xiaohua away and picked Xue Bainian up.
What Bai Wenjing did not know was that Xue Xiaohua was whispering something into Xue Baijun’s ear at that moment.
When she gently comforted the crying Xue Bainian, Xue Baijun and his sister actually knelt down in front of her and cried, “Mother, I’m sorry. We were really wrong. Please don’t hit me. I won’t dare to do it again next time…”
Xue Bainian even took a step forward and asked while crying, “Mother, are you alright?”
After being tormented, Bai Wenjing’s heart softened again. She sighed and said, “Forget it. It’s good that you know your mistake. Remember, there won’t be a next time.”
“Yes, yes, yes. There won’t be a next time.”
The siblings nodded as if they were pounding garlic.
Look, this trick still worked.
Bai Wenjing revealed a gratified smile on her mother’s face and said gently, “Alright, you guys must be hungry too. I’ll go cook for you.”
Seeing Bai Wenjing walk into the kitchen, Xue Baijun immediately wiped away his tears and revealed a sly smile at Xue Xiaohua. “Xiaohua, this move of yours really works. We’ll use it again next time.”
In the kitchen, Bai Wenjing turned a kg of white flour into dough. Suddenly, a beeping sound rang out in her mind —
“Red alert, red alert. Due to the kindness of the host, the difficulty of the ultimate mission has increased!”
