Chapter 1240: Chapter 1242: Fighting is Fun_1
There wasn’t much in the family except for daughters, who numbered six in total without a single son.
If you praised daughters in front of others, saying how wonderful and caring they were, you were directly assumed to be mocking the family for only having daughters and no sons.
In ancient times, where males were valued over females, families with only girls were already sensitive. With such remarks, hatred took root in their hearts.
They seized an opportunity in town and, with the offer of some silver, abducted someone.
"To think, that person was really dumb. Couldn’t even find the right target for revenge, and instead dragged innocent people into the mess."
That was the only thought Yang Chuxia had after hearing the whole story. If you felt others were mocking you, you should seek revenge from them, not involve the innocent girls. It was simply senseless.
"In her eyes, a sister-in-law and younger sister-in-law are all the same, part of one family. Making life hard for any of them is all the same," Ye Zi’an said, shaking his head.
"But by doing this, since the person abducted was from the same village, the news couldn’t be suppressed, and the girl’s reputation was ruined. Reputation is such a dangerous thing, many suffer because of it.
"There’s nothing that can be done about it, let’s not talk about this matter anymore. By the way, why haven’t I seen the two boys all day?"
Ye Zi’an looked at the darkening sky outside. He had returned after lunch and hadn’t seen his sons at all.
"Linyu and Xia Yun took them out to play."
"You really trust them, don’t you?" Ye Zi’an shook his head helplessly. "Those two girls are still children themselves, and you let them take the boys out. Aren’t you afraid they might lose the children while playing?"
Upon hearing this, Yang Chuxia rolled her eyes, as if she were an insensible mother.
"Both Nanny Li went with them, and they had guards following. Ye Er isn’t here either, didn’t you notice?"
"Brother-in-law, do you really distrust us that much? Even if we were to lose ourselves, we wouldn’t be able to lose your two precious sons," Yang Chuxia had barely finished speaking when Yang Xiayun’s loud voice came from outside.
Then the patter of two little boys running inside could be heard, shouting as they entered, "Dad, Mom!"
"Is it because us cousins seem so irresponsible to you? Could we not take good care of them?" Luo Linyu followed behind with her mouth pouted and dissatisfaction on her face from feeling untrusted.
Ye Zi’an touched his nose. He had misspoken and the two girls had overheard him.
"Dad, Dad..." Yangyang was holding a small wooden sword, "Look at me!"
"Did you buy it outside?"
"Mmm-hmm, it’s fun outside." Yangyang was visibly excited.
Compared to him, Lele was much calmer.
"You’ve been out several times, how come you still find it fun outside?"
"Fighting is fun!" Yangyang suddenly said, making Yang Xiayun and Luo Linyu’s faces change color instantly.
"Fighting is fun?" Yang Chuxia’s eyes narrowed slightly, "Did you go out and fight?"
Otherwise, why would Yangyang say fighting is fun?
"Fight, fight!" Before Yang Xiayun and Luo Linyu could speak, Yangyang exposed them again, gesturing with his hands and feet, "Mom, look at me, look at me, like this, huh... huh..."
Yangyang’s imitation of throwing punches and kicking almost made Yang Chuxia burst out laughing. The little rascal had learned to punch and kick.
Lele covered her face at the side, thinking her brother was too foolish. Auntie and Little Auntie told them not to tell their parents, and yet he went ahead and spilled the beans. They surely wouldn’t take him out to play anymore.
