Chapter 150 The Junior Can’t Even Get Involved
They had walked almost halfway, but Erzhuzi still had that troubled look on his face. Even Xiao Jingnian couldn't help but look at him frequently, then poked Xiao Li's shoulder, "Daddy?"
"Hmm?" Xiao Li looked up at him.
Little Jingnian leaned on his shoulder and looked at Erzhuzi behind him, "Him."
Xiao Li kept walking and glanced back, "Erzhuzi."
"Hey! What's wrong with Fourth Brother Xiao?" Erzhuzi responded subconsciously before his brain could react, then quickly walked to his side, waiting for him to speak.
Seeing this, Xiao Jingnian turned his head back and watched his reaction curiously from the other side.
Xiao Li weighed him with amusement, "Does Niannian also like gossip so much?"
Little Jingnian blinked and looked at him with a confused look on his face, obviously not knowing what gossip meant.
Xiao Li naturally wouldn't tell him, but just smiled and coaxed him, "Praise Niannian! Our Niannian is a little kid who loves to be lively, right?"
The little guy blinked his eyes and nodded slowly: "That's right."
Xiao Li was amused by his gullible appearance and lifted him up high several times.
Little Jingnian's reaction was slower than others. Before he could even react to his fear, he was already sitting in his arms again.
Xiao Li touched his forehead to his, "Why isn't Niannian talking? Are you unhappy? Or are you scared?"
The little guy shook his head and said, "No." After a pause, he said in a baby voice, "Nothing at all."
His well-behaved and obedient appearance made people feel soft-hearted, and they coaxed him with a lot of words in a gentle voice.
The water slave who was following beside them was so shocked that he didn't know what to say. Seeing that the two of them really looked like father and son, he was surprised and happy, but at the same time, he couldn't help feeling a little worried.
If Young Master Xiao is willing to adopt the young master, then the young master will be able to live a good life like before and will not have to worry about being hungry or not having warm clothes.
But he was also worried that Xiao Li already had two children at home, and his husband would dislike the adopted little boy. He was also worried that the two children would bully the little boy...
While he was lost in thought, Xiao Li next to him finally turned his gaze to Er Zhuzi and asked, "Do you have something to say to me?"
In fact, his expression was no different from usual, but probably because he felt guilty, Erzhuzi's gaze became vague when he looked over.
Xiao Li didn't like trouble, nor did he like beating around the bush. Seeing that he was hesitant, he simply looked away and said, "If you have nothing to say, go find Fifth Grandpa."
"Yes, I have something to say!" Erzhuzi hurriedly explained, "Brother Xiao Si, the reason you weren't at the ancestral hall is this..."
I told the whole story again. Although the process was a bit confusing, at least I explained it clearly.
It turned out that they had no say in the handling of the refugees. The villagers were talking at once, and their saliva was enough to drown them out. How could they dare to continue speaking?
Yang Quan wanted to speak, but he was younger than the others, and the elders didn't give him a chance to speak. They just asked him to listen quietly, and there was nothing he could do.
Everyone was a little anxious at that time, but every time someone tried to speak, the elders would tell them to be quiet. They couldn't even get a word in, so how could they tell the villagers and the clan leaders and elders what Xiao Li had told them in advance?
Although Xiao Li was not sure about this matter, he could probably guess a little. It was simply because their generation was too low, so their words were not taken seriously and the elders did not listen to them.
However, things have already happened and have been resolved. He did not intend to delve into the reasons behind it. The other party's explanation only confirmed his guess.
So he just patted Erzhuzi on the shoulder and said, "It's good that the problem has been solved. It's okay now. Go and see how those refugees are dealt with. You should also want to vent your anger, right?"
Er Zhuzi was deeply moved by his understanding. "Fourth Brother Xiao, you are so kind. I'll go right away! If you need any help, just call me. I will definitely come."
Xiao Li nodded, "Go ahead."
