Chapter 9: Mother, You Can’t Lock Me Up!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Pretty Brother, why are you here? Are you staying at Auntie Wu’s house from now on?”

Zhao Yan nodded. “The village chief got us to stay here.”

The little girl danced with joy. “Then I can see you every day from now on!”

Zhao Yan nodded and was about to speak when he saw the youth who was about his age suddenly run over with big strides. He carried Su Ling and ran into his house.

If he wasn’t mistaken, the young man had looked at him guardedly.

It made sense. As an outsider, it made sense that he would be wary of him.

However, that little girl was really an exception. She was actually so close to him.

When Su Ling was carried into the room by her third brother, her legs were still kicking randomly, as if she was very resistant.

Xiaodong immediately felt even angrier. Thinking of what his mother had just said to him, he felt that the kid next door was an eyesore.

His sister was only a few years old. How did she know if he was beautiful?

That kid was definitely not a good person.

He put her on the bed and saw that she was still trying to escape. He quickly took off her shoes and threw them far away.

Now she couldn’t run even if she wanted to. The weather was so hot now that walking barefoot would cause blisters.

Su Ling was furious and waved her arms. “Third Brother!”

At this moment, Xu Fengqiao walked in. Seeing how angry her daughter was, her heart did not soften.

“It’s useless to call your Third Brother. I asked him to bring you back.”

Xiaodong glanced at Xu Fengqiao in shock and disbelief.

His mother was actually speaking up for him.

This was really the first time.

Su Ling was still puzzled. She placed her hands on her hips and remained silent.

Xu Fengqiao had always been soft-hearted towards her. Seeing her like this, she felt that she had been too harsh.

She sat next to her and picked her up.

“Girl, Mother is doing this for your own good and for the good of our family. Those two people came from unknown origins and suddenly came to our Ancient Tree Village. Who knows what they’re here for? You can’t get close to that little brother just because he’s… good-looking. This might harm you and our family.”

Su Ling tilted her head and listened to her mother. Her eyes flickered as she suddenly raised her hand.

“Mother, what do you mean by unknown origins?”

Xu Fengqiao’s expression froze. How could she know what this meant? She had learned many words from Su Changsheng.

Xiaodong spoke with great pride. “It just means we don’t know where they came from.”

The girl nodded as if she understood. When she looked up, she still looked puzzled.

“The fortune-teller uncle said so. They’re from a neighboring country, and they don’t look like bad people.”

Xu Fengqiao looked at her innocent and ignorant face and gave up trying to reason with her.

She climbed out of bed and shouted orders at her youngest son.

“Xiaodong, watch her closely. Don’t let her run out, and don’t let her go to Auntie Wu’s house next door!”

Xiaodong agreed quickly. “I understand, Mother!”

The two of them echoed each other, leaving the confused little packrat behind.

She was about to wheedle her mother into changing her mind when she saw that she was already striding out the door.

The little girl’s cries shook the sky. “Mother, you can’t lock me up!”

Xu Fengqiao closed the door expressionlessly and did not forget to look at the courtyard next door.

The courtyard next door was empty now. Xu Fengqiao thought about what had happened in less than half a day and found it unbelievable.

Why was her daughter’s fate tied to that boy for no reason? Furthermore, he had moved in next door to them.

She hurried toward the field, thinking about discussing countermeasures with her husband and two sons.

No matter who the two people next door were or what they were doing, as long as her girl was involved, it was out of the question.
