Chapter 213: Chapter 213: Bickering Chapter 213: Chapter 213: Bickering This little guy was truly warm, and if you really asked Kang Li which of the three kids he liked best, it was undoubtedly Milk Bun Ming Han.
The child was raised pudgy, always looking so well-behaved, and every ti Kang Li smiled and called “Hanhan,” the little one would always respond with a big smile.
As the four of them walked while talking, well, to be more precise, it was the twin brother and sister chatting with Kang Li along the way, as for their brother Min Rui, he adhered to his “silence is golden” approach.
“Mommy, mommy! Look, Auntie Su seems to be arguing with Auntie Loo!”
Unknowingly, when they had walked to a spot more than ten ters away from the Wen family’s house and the Zhang family’s house across the street, Xiao Ming Wei pulled her little hand out from her brother Min Rui’s palm. She waited for Kang Li to co closer, then tilted her little head up to look at her mom and whispered.
Kang Li bent down, touched the little girl’s hair, and with her other hand, raised her index finger to her lips and “shushed.” Xiao Ming Wei imdiately mimicked the gesture, “shushing” at her mom too, she blinked her big eyes, seriously nodding her little head to show she understood what her mom ant.
“What I’m saying, you know, don’t treat everyone as fools!”
Su Man had not intended to argue with Loo Ping, but a few minutes earlier, she felt claustrophobic at ho and decided to step out for so fresh air. Coincidentally, Loo Ping had also walked out of her house, and upon seeing Su Man, she initially intended to greet her, but before long, Su Man had lashed out at Loo Ping.
Although she did not explicitly state that Loo Ping had intentionally instigated her to cause trouble next door, her words were laden with implications that Loo Ping harbored ill intentions towards their family.
The implications were full of aning.
Loo Ping could clearly hear the accusations between the lines in Su Man’s words, and she was so angered that she was literally gasping for breath, unsure of how to counterattack, only able to feign ignorance repeatedly.
The root of it was nothing more than guilt.
“Xiao Su, you really are baffling. What exactly did I say to you to warrant such a big grievance, standing at my gate, accusing of wrongdoing with every sentence?”
Although there weren’t many onlookers, being made a spectacle of was still uncomfortable for Loo Ping, especially since Su Man showed no regard for her dignity, insinuating with every sentence, and she, feeling guilty, couldn’t directly confront her, feeling extrely suffocated at the mont.
Su Man: “Sister Loo, are you going to keep pretending? Fine, keep it up, I’m just laying it out here. I, Su Man, may not be very clever, but I’m not so foolish that I can’t read between the lines. If you don’t want to be pointed at and scolded by every day, then drop your scheming!”
“What sches could I possibly have? Xiao Su, your way of speaking is truly ridiculous. We are neighbors living door to door. Considering your young age, I will not hold today’s rudeness against you, but now, please imdiately leave my doorway, or else, don’t bla for driving you away!”
It was just like dealing with a shrew—whenever she saw her, she would co over and speak harshly. Was she indebted to her? Enough was enough!
Loo Ping was after all a teacher; she had to maintain her dignity. Moreover, many kids in the large yard were her students; being pointed at and scolded by a young wife today, who knows what her students might spread around the school.
Thinking this, Loo Ping’s complexion beca exceptionally ugly in a flash.
“This road isn’t owned by your family. I’ll leave if I want to, stay if I don’t, you have no say in it!”
Su Man stood still, and as she inadvertently saw Kang Li passing by her side, her eyes flickered, calling out to Kang Li:
