Chapter 554: Be on Guard Against Others
Xiao Wu looked at the eyes of several people staring at him. Although he was still angry, he calmed down after walking all the way. He couldn't ruin the reputation of a girl just because of impulsiveness.
Fortunately, that girl Xing'er didn't do anything else, except for meeting him by chance, saying hello and then leaving. But he's not stupid. When he goes out on his own, he always makes up his mind which way he takes. In this way, he can meet her again and again. It's hard not to think too much.
There was also his cousin's step-sibling, who was staring at him strangely. In short, he had to stay away from that mother and daughter in the future.
After making a decision in his heart, Xiao Wu's expression recovered and he cleared his throat.
"It's okay, I'm going to read a book."
Looking at Xiao Wu's back, Bai Yunxi pursed her lips and squinted her eyes. The purpose of that woman Chen Jiao was already obvious.
How dare you take Xiao Wu's idea, it's a shame she could think of it.
Why, it's not enough for her to marry into the Bai family, she also wants to marry her daughter into the family?
If nothing else, this brain circuit is really amazing.
Bai Yunxi squinted her eyes, a cold light flashed in her eyes. If she let the mother and son succeed, she wouldn't have to hang around here anymore.
As for how to defend herself, she had to think carefully and make sure no one took advantage of the situation.
Do you want to play with her on the waterfront or not? Do you want to see if she agrees?
Mrs. Du looked at her mother-in-law and narrowed her eyes slightly, feeling suspicious. Doesn't her mother seem angry?
"Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Even Mrs. Li noticed that her mother-in-law's mood was not right, and asked cautiously. Ever since Xiao Wu came back with a dark face, her mother's expression had changed.
"It's okay, it's just that some ladies don't like it."
Bai Yunxi looked at the two of them, then turned to look at the girl who was doing embroidery work.
"Xiao Jing, when Xiao Wu goes out from now on, whether it's to the fields or for a walk when he's tired of studying, you'll go with him. Xiao Wu has a bad temper, so he won't be anxious when something happens."
"Hey~, Xiaowu doesn't go out very often, so he only goes to the fields occasionally."
Bai Jingjing was stunned for a moment, then smiled, her fifth brother was very good, no better than that monkey Xiao Si who jumped up and down every day.
Mrs. Li looked at this, then that, but finally couldn't hold it back.
"Mom, why do you let the third sister follow the fifth brother?"
Looking at Li's big eyes, Bai Yunxi smiled.
"Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, our four and five are also fifteen-year-old young men. If it weren't for the filial piety period, Mom would probably have people coming to propose marriage. Mom doesn't want Xiao Wu's marriage to be arranged too early. So as not to delay his study and progress."
As soon as the mother-in-law said this, not only Mrs. Li was stunned, but even Mrs. Du looked confused.
She could understand not letting Xiao Wu get engaged early, but what was the point of letting her sister-in-law go out with her fifth brother?
Are you still afraid of being robbed?
When this thought came to her mind, Du Shi herself found it funny, lowered her head and secretly curled the corners of her mouth.
Listening to Du Shi's thoughts, Baiyun Xi raised his eyebrows, you guessed it right.
Looking at the two of them, Bai Yunxi thought for a moment. Neither her daughter-in-law was a gossip, so there was no harm in telling them. Let's protect Chen Jiao and her daughter together. With an extra layer of protection, Xiao Wu would have an extra layer of protection.
"Ahem~, I guess Xiao Wu is being taken care of. Someone wants to get closer to the water and get the moon first. Mom doesn't want to be succeeded, so let Xiao Jing follow you and be careful."
Xiaowu's matter is related to the future of J's family, so there is nothing to be careless about.
As soon as these words came out, several people were surprised. Du Shi suddenly realized that this was the case.
"Mom, you mean there is a girl in the village who has fallen in love with the fifth brother?"
