When Xu Muan came home and heard Xiao Xiaodong talk about Wang Erhu, he immediately felt agitated.

Xu Muan had also heard of the recruitment of young servants in the Zhou family. He heard that the young master of the Zhou family had a bad temper, and many of the children who entered the Zhou family had disappeared without a trace, and even their bodies couldn’t be found.

The Zhou family was so powerful that most of the young servants recruited were from poor families with no power. When the children entered the door they signed the deed of sale and when these children disappeared, those adults did not dare to ask the Zhou family to give them an explaination.

Thirty silver, a third level tooth-piercing pig was not worth this price. If the Zhou family spent such a large sum to recruit children servants, he was afraid that there was a big problem!

“Your father didn’t promise that man.” Xu Muan asked.

Wang Erhu and Xu Muan had also met each other, In Xu Muan eyes, this man was slippery, cunning, and hypocritical. He was really not a good person, but he was used to pleasing people and had a very good relationship with Xiao Jingting.

“No, but father said he would consider it.” Xiao Xiaodong said.

“In future take good care of your brother. Don’t let your brother be alone with him and neither do you.” Xu Muan ordered.

Xiao Xiaodong nodded solemnly and said, “Mother -Father, I know.”

Xu Muan pursed his lips and thought of Xiao Jingting’s gambling debt. Even if Xiao Jingting didn’t want to sell his children now, it would be hard to say what would happen when the people from the gambling shop came to ask for gambling debts.

When Xiao Jingting got up, he found that the door next door was locked. Xiao Jingting called the two kids to eat, but there was no response.

“Brother, he’s asking us for dinner.” Xiao Xiaofan licked his lips.

Xiao Xiaodong glared at Xiao Xiaofan and said, “Eat, eat, you only know how to eat, and you are not afraid that he will catch you and sell you.”

Xiao Xiaofan bulged his cheek and said, “Dad is not that kind of person. Dad is very kind to me.”

Xiao Xiaodong said angrily, “A little favor can buy you off. You are really useless.”

Xiao Xiaofan climbed to the wooden table in front of the window and secretly peeped through the window to see the movement outside.

“Ah!” Xiao Xiaofan exclaimed.

“What did you see?” Xiao Xiaodong asked.

“A lot of grapes.” The grapes had been bearing fruit before, but they were all green and small. Xiao Xiaofan picked two of them and ate them but they were very sour so he stayed away from grapes for several days.

“It’s just grapes. There were a lot of them before.” Xiao Xiaodong didn’t care.

Xiao Xiaofan blinked his eyes and said, “it used to be green before and now they are purple.”

Xiao Xiaodong rolled his eyes and said, “Even if it becomes purple, it is still sour.”

Xiao Xiaofan blinked and said, “But it looks delicious now.”

Xiao Jingting

Xiao Jingting spawned the grapes and went out.

Xiao Xiaodong watched Xiao Jingting leave and became relieved.

Xiao Xiaodong was distracted and sat by the bedside. Xiao Xiaofan was scratching the window and only staring at the grapes outside drooling.

Xiao Xiaofan slipped out to pick a bunch of grapes while Xiao Xiaodong wasn’t paying attention.

Xiao Xiaodong looked at the grapes Xiao Xiaofan picked, and his face becomes livid. “Why are you picking his grapes?”

“It doesn’t matter. Dad is not here, and there are so many grapes. He won’t find out.” Xiao Xiaofan doesn’t care.

Xiao Xiaodong said hopefully, “He may find out when he came back.”

“Dad loves me the most. He won’t hit me.” Xiao Xiaofan said.

Xiao Xiaodong said hatefully, “You only remember when he give you stuff to eat but not when he hit things, or how he beat you in the past, forget it.” In most serious ones, Xiao Xiaofan was almost was killed by Xiao Jingting.

Xiao Xiaofan flattened his mouth and burst into tears.

Xiao Xiaodong saw Xiao Xiaofan crying pitifully, and comforted Xiao Xiaofan in a soft voice.

When Xu Muan came back in the evening, he found that the food he left for Xiao Xiaofan and Xiao Xiaodong was not touched. There were grape skins on the ground of the room and two clusters of grapes on the table.
