Chapter 33

But he didn’t expect that the trouble came the next day, when he had just thought that they would have a more comfortable life.

The family was having breakfast. Xu Ran planned to put the chilli sauce in the bamboo tubes today. It had been more than twenty days since he made the chilli sauce.

Before the breakfast was finished, someone outside asked them to get out rudely.

As soon as Xu Ran heard the voice, he could tell that it was from Elder Daddy Xu.

He hadn’t paid any attention to the news of the Xu Family ever since they left the family. Firstly, he was busy and didn’t have time to pay attention to it. Secondly, he didn’t want to waste time on it. The condition of the Xu Family had nothing to do with them, but he didn’t know why they came to their place today.

He still remembered the pain from last time. He put down the bowl and said to Liu Tong, “Tongtong, stay inside with Tangtang and Guoguo. I’ll go out and take a look.”

“Ran, I’ll go with you! It upsets me if you go on your own.” Liu Tong was worried, since he was really afraid that the Xu Family would do something bad to Xu Ran.

Xu Ran patted his hand to console him and replied, “Tongtong, don’t worry. I’m no longer a fool and they can’t do harm to me. I’ll call you when I need your help later.”

“Sure. Ran, be careful.” Although he was worried about Xu Ran, Liu Tong also knew that everything in his family should be handled by him since he had got back to normal, otherwise they would be in trouble. So Liu Tong had to do as Xu Ran said.

After getting out of the room, Xu Ran saw many people standing outside. It was so lively.

He walked out and opened the door to the courtyard, and then looked at Elder Daddy Xu and Xu Cheng outside. He asked, “Daddy, how can I help? Why do you come to my place so early?”

As soon as he saw Xu Ran, Elder Daddy Xu got angry. He pointed at his nose and said, “You are such a ungrateful person. You haven’t come home to see me and your dad for so long since you lived apart. We have been really busy with the farmwork, but you haven’t come back to help us. How dare you ask me why I am here? Of course I am here to teach you a lesson.”

Hearing his words, Xu Ran sneered. “Heh! Daddy, have you forgotten that I was driven out from the Xu Family? I haven’t been fully recovered at that time. My spouse takes care of two kids and me, a fool back then. We were beaten up before being driven out of the family without any property. Luckily, some nice people took us in, otherwise we would definitely be dead and you could only see our tombs.”

It had only been two months, and many people saw Liu Tong kneeling with his two children and Xu Ran who had been injured. After hearing Xu Ran’s words, they looked really sullen .

“Brother, you are wrong. Though we don’t live together, we are still a family. We are really busy now while you don’t have any land. Why don’t you come home to help us?” Seeing Elder Daddy Xu was choken on Xu Ran’s words, Xu Cheng couldn’t wait to stand out.

Elder Daddy Xu followed Xu Cheng and said, “What your younger brother said is right. You’d rather go help others than help your own family. What’s wrong with you? I gave birth to you and raised you, but you are totally ungrateful.”

“Daddy, I respect you because you are my elder, so I can’t blame you. I remember what life I lived in the Xu Family even if I was a fool. At that time, my father wanted to give us a piece of land, but you didn’t allow. You really wanted my family to have nothing to eat. Daddy, Tangtang and Guoguo are your grandsons and they are only five years old. Why are you so cruel? How can you treat us like this?” As he was talking, Xu Ran’s eyes became red.

“Xu Houcai’s spouse, I’ve never seen someone as shameless as you. Your younger son snatched his big brother’s previous significant other, but you also want to starve your elder son to death. I want to ask you what the hell you’re thinkning. They are both your sons, but why are you so cruel to Xu Ran?” Hearing that Elder Daddy Xu and Xu Cheng came to Xu Ran’s place to make trouble, Wu Mei was worried and came over in a hurry. When he arrived, he heard Xu Ran’s words, so he could not help but speak for him.

Xu Cheng and Elder Daddy Xu didn’t expect that Wu Mei would suddenly appear.They did snatch Xu Ran’s previous partner. Although they told others they did not want the other party to have a tough life with Xu Ran, they knew exactly what their intention was. Thus, they felt diffident now.

Finding the people around him pointed at them and said something bad about them, Xu Cheng raised his head and said to Wu Mei, “Who do you think you are? This is our family affair. Why are you an outsider here to criticize us?”

“Who am I? Heh,” Wu Mei sneered and answered, “Without me, Xu Ran and his family has died long ago. Now you tell me who I am?”

“He deserves it!” Hearing Wu Mei’s words, Elder Daddy Xu suddenly said.
