70s Delicate Girl: A Guide to Being a Rich Woman-Chapter 194: Annoying Brat

Xu Mumu twitched the corners of her mouth, hoping this girl wouldn’t say anything to embarrass her cousin in front of him.

"My aunt found out I got the first place, and then she beat up my brother." The little girl was gloating immensely.

Xu Mumu felt a bit helpless. This girl really might get her cousin to hate her to death.

On the fourth day, Xu Qingxing brought Qin Liang and Qin Dongdong back early and brought quite a lot of things.

By the time Xu Chunmei and the others arrived, it was almost noon. Xu Qingxing was in the kitchen helping her mother and sister-in-law make lunch. This time, Xu Chunmei only brought her younger son, Tian Shun.

Madam Chen’s face turned a bit unpleasant when she saw Xu Chunmei and just her son return.

"Sis, where’s brother-in-law?" Xu Qingxing also didn’t look pleased.

"He... he has someone at home." Xu Chunmei lowered her head. Tian Zhuang didn’t dare to come back with her. He hadn’t even dared come back this time after being beaten by her brothers last time, leaving him bedridden for a long time.

"Aunt, Shunshun, have something to eat." Xu Mumu brought out some snacks, all kinds of seeds and candies.

When Tian Shun saw the food, he immediately stuffed it into his clothes pockets.

Xu Mumu raised an eyebrow slightly and didn’t say much. Suddenly, she felt her family’s kids were quite polite.

Of course, Xu Hai and others noticed as well but didn’t say much. They knew about Xu Chunmei’s family situation, but they still looked down a bit on Tian Shun’s behavior.

Tian Shun was the same age as Xu Tao and Xu Jiaojiao yet not as mature as they were.

"Shunshun, why don’t you play with your brother and sister? Mom is going to help grandma with cooking." Xu Chunmei gently comforted her son; he was her everything.

"Okay." Tian Shun nodded and didn’t care what Xu Chunmei was going to do. He just kept eating nonstop, quickly stuffing into his mouth the snacks Xu Mumu brought out, wishing he could have more mouths.

Xu Jiaojiao was sitting on Xu Mumu’s bed, speaking softly to her, "Big sister, I don’t like Tian Shun."

"Why?" Xu Mumu asked with a light smile.

"He didn’t greet anyone when he arrived and snatched our food to eat." The snacks Xu Mumu brought out were meant for several children, but now Tian Shun hoarded them. If it weren’t for them being hosts and Tian Shun being a guest, she would have wanted to drive him out.

"It’s fine. I have more snacks. Shunshun doesn’t come around often." Xu Mumu smiled. Her elder aunt only came back on New Year’s if there was a special occasion.

The younger aunt often returned, and no matter what, every time she brought something. But the elder aunt, Xu Mumu didn’t know what to say. She came for New Year’s greetings empty-handed, and her uncle didn’t even come.

Lunch was quite abundant, and seeing all the meat on the table made Tian Shun’s eyes light up as he reached out to grab it.

"Little sister, aren’t you going to manage your child? Luckily, this is our family. If he behaves like this outside, it’s not just the Old Xu Family’s face he’s losing." Xu Hai tapped Tian Shun’s hand with his chopsticks, his eyes full of disdain. This brat was vastly different from his children.

"Waaah!" Tian Shun burst into loud cries after his hand was hit.

"I want to eat meat, I want to eat meat." Tian Shun cried out, hitting Xu Chunmei with his hands and kicking his feet. If Xu Chunmei wasn’t holding him, he’d be rolling on the ground.

"If you want to throw a tantrum, take it outside, brat." Madam Chen held a broom, itching to move, staring at Xu Chunmei. After seeing her own grandchildren who were well-behaved, clean-loving, Tian Shun with tears and snot all over, wanting to roll on the floor, made Madam Chen’s face quite displeased.

Seeing the broom in Madam Chen’s hand, Tian Shun didn’t dare to cry anymore; he was afraid of his grandma.

"Shunshun, wait and eat." Xu Chunmei felt frustrated; in Tian’s family, if you didn’t grab quickly, you wouldn’t get any meat, and now it has become a habit. "Mom, I’ll watch over Shunshun."

"Hmph, you better watch him." Madam Chen was very unhappy. A perfectly fine New Year’s visit was ruined, and in comparison with the still younger Qin Dongdong, Tian Shun’s behavior was downright annoying to everyone.

Although things were a bit unpleasant, during lunch, Tian Shun didn’t dare go overboard but only ate food Xu Chunmei dished out.

Xu Mumu watched indifferently; the elder aunt too doted on her child, but to this extent? Tsk tsk, Tian Shun was spoiled rotten.

After lunch, Xu Chunmei was a bit embarrassed to stay, and due to the long distance to home, after greeting Madam Chen, she left with Tian Shun. Of course, when leaving, Madam Chen gave her half a basket of sweet potatoes.

Seeing off Xu Chunmei and her son, the Old Xu Family resumed their routine.

Xu Qingxing and the others stayed till after dinner before heading back, as their departure made them have an early dinner.

At home, they tutored Xu Minghui for several days. By the time he had to go back to work, Xu Minghui almost fled out the door; being tutored daily by his sister was so painful.

When Xu Minghui left, he carried with him some high school notes Xu Mumu gave him.

Seeing her brother flee, Xu Mumu smiled lightly. This is not over yet; next time he’s on vacation, he’ll have to catch up, as his basic knowledge was too lacking to improve without hard work.

The next day, Xu Mumu went to the county, bringing some dried mushrooms from home, heading toward Du Yu’s house.

Having promised Qin Jie a couple of days ago, she naturally had to visit.

Soon after Xu Mumu left, the team leader hurriedly brought police officers to Xu Mumu’s home.

"Team leader, nobody in our family did anything wrong," Old Xu trembled when he saw the people Zhao Guodong brought, fully dressed in police uniforms.

"No, no, this is a good thing. The man your Mumu caught a few days ago, this comrade Mr. Gong here has come to present a banner to Mumu. Where is she?" Zhao Guodong said with a big smile, immensely gratified inside. He didn’t expect Xu Mumu to be so capable, but this was definitely a huge advantage for the team. The Red River Team might even stand a chance as an exemplary team this year.

"Mumu went to the county to see her friend. Please come in." Old Xu immediately breathed a sigh of relief, warmly inviting Zhao Guodong and Officer Gong inside.

"Please, comrades, have a seat. Minglei, go to the county and call your sister back, hurry up." Xu Hai said excitedly.

"Got it, Dad, I’ll go right away." Xu Minglei nodded and quickly headed to the county with Tiedan. They already knew the shoe factory’s location, so finding Xu Mumu would be easy.

Madam Chen made some tea for Zhao Guodong and others, then began talking about the human trafficking incident.
