There was no impenetrable wall in the world, and the news of Xu Muan’s going back to his family spread like wildfire two days after Xu Muan left.

In the absence of Xu Muan, many matchmakers poured in, disturbing Xiao Jingting.

Xiao Jingting was annoyed, and Xiao Xiaodong looked like he was facing an archenemy, fearing that someone would wreck their family by taking advantage of Xu Muan’s absence.

When Xiao Xiaodong saw those matchmakers bring people to their door, he would take his younger brother to stare at those people, but the stare of a child did not have much intimidating power so the people who came completely ignored Xiao Xiaodong and Xiao Xiaofan.

People were coming and going, and some of them even came to their door early in the morning, which made them delay their work in the fields.

Xiao Jingting was forced to think of a solution. In the end, Xiao Jingting made two simple water guns for Xiao Xiaofan and Xiao Xiaodong by using bamboo.

The childhood of Xiao Xiaofan and Xiao Xiaodong was very boring and they didn’t have any toys so after getting the water guns, they instantly loved them.

The next day, Xiao Jingting went out early in the morning. Xiao Xiaofan and Xiao Xiaodong in the courtyard played with water guns. When they encountered someone who came to their door, they would spray those individuals with their water guns, making all of them drenched. At the end of the day, the results were remarkable as girls and boys who came with fancy clothes and makeup become embarrassed, so the number of guests who came to their door the next day was sharply reduced by half.

…..…

On the other side, Xiao Jinfeng’s whereabouts were uncertain. Xu Muan managed to find Xiao Jinfeng’s trail by chance seven days after he went out.

When Xu Muan found Xiao Jinfeng, the latter was in bad health. Xiao Ping said in the letter that Xiao Jinfeng was injured but Xu Muan found that Xiao Jinfeng was not injured, but poisoned.

The poison of the Colorful Phoenix Spider that Xiao Jinkeng was poisoned with, would gradually erode the Qi in his body, gradually turning him into a useless person without any spiritual energy at all.

The poison of the Colored Phoenix Spider would require a fourth-grade antidote, the Bixin pill. The market value of Bixin pill was one thousand taels of silver, which was a large sum of money for small families. However, for the big Xiao family which ran equally big businesses, it was not a large sum.

If the original owner’s parents were still around, detoxifying Xiao Jinfeng’s poison wouldn’t be a difficult task, but now the one in charge was Xiao Jinfeng’s uncle’s family.

After Xiao Jinfeng returned to Xiao family, Xiao Chengfeng pretended to be very concerned about Xiao Jinfeng’s case, and even asked people to find out the whereabouts of the antidote but secretly repeatedly delayed Xiao Jinfeng’s treatment. When Xiao Jinfeng was accused of raping Xiao Muhong “wife”, Xiao Chengfeng scolded Xiao Jinfeng for being ungrateful and shameless.

Xiao Jinfeng could not explain so he was expelled from the Xiao family.

“Second Brother, come back with me. Jingting asked me to pick you up. As to your poisoning, when we meet with Jingting, we can figure a way out, all right?” Xu Muan said and secretly thought: Xiao Jingting’s current abilities were good. If he was willing to help, giving Xiao Jingting a few months’ time, it shouldn’t be too difficult for him to collect a thousand taels of silve.

Xiao Jingfeng shook his head and said, “I understand Xiao Jingting’s temperament, he can’t even manage his own life, how will he care about me? You must have a hard time living with him, even if my brother had some conscience to shelter me for the sake of the brotherhood, I will only drag you down now.”

“Second Brother, don’t underestimate yourself and lose heart just because you are wronged by others. If you’re cured of this poisonous wound, then you’ll be an expert again.” Xu Muan said.

When he was in the Xiao family, Xu Muan actually admired Xiao Jinfeng. Although Xiao Jinfeng was born into a powerful family, he didn’t have the pompous air of a young master and joined the mercenary team early to become self-sufficient. Seeing that arrogant Xiao Jinfeng had become like this now, Xu Muan felt sorry for him.

Xiao Jinfeng smiled bitterly, this poisonous injury of his hadn’t been treated timely, so he was afraid it would be hard to heal now.

“Brother Jinfeng, just listen to Xu Muan. Go find your brother first, or at least find a place to settle down. Brother Xu came all the way here out of good intentions. Don’t let him down!” Mu Shuyu was silent for a long time as he faced Xiao Jinfeng

Xiao Jinfeng looked at Mu Shuyu for a second and smiled bitterly. A few months ago, he was the young master of the Xiao family and a small captain of the mercenary team, with friends all over the world. But now he had become a street rat, all of those old friends dodged him faster than others. It was Mu Shuyu, who had always been indifferent to him, who took care of him since his downfall. It was true that you could only know your true friends when you were in need!

“Yes! Second brother, Xiao Jingting is really different from before. When he heard that you were injured, he even gave me all the silver in the family before I left so that I wouldn’t need to be stingy in buying medicine for you.” Xu Muan said.

Mu Shuyu looked at Xiao Jinfeng and said again, “Brother Jinfeng, your brother has good intentions, just go with him. After all you are still his brother and share the same blood.”

Xiao Jinfeng nodded and said, “All right.” After the accident, Xiao Jingfeng contacted his eldest brother Xiao Qingyan, who was studying at Bifeng Academy. Unfortunately, Xiao Qingyan was probably busy with his studies and after the letter was sent, it sank in water like a stone and he didn’t hear from him again.

“After meeting my younger brother, if Jingting isn’t happy to see me, don’t force him.” Xiao Jinfeng said with some regret.

Xu Muan looked at Xiao Jinfeng and said, “Second brother, Jingting has really changed a lot. You haven’t seen him. No matter what I say, you won’t understand. When you see him, you will know.”

Xiao Jinfeng nodded lightly and said, “All right.”

Mu Shuyu knew that Xiao Jinfeng didn’t hold much hope for his younger brother from his disheartened tone, “Jinfeng, don’t be discouraged! Things will eventually sort themselves out.”

Xiao Jinfeng looked at Mu Shuyu with a wry smile and thought secretly: Mu Shuyu was so simple that he was expecting something from that brother of his, little did he know that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

When Xu Muan brought Xiao Jingfeng and Mu Shuyu back to the courtyard of the Xiao family in Mound Village, Xiao Jingting was bathing Xiao Xiaofan in the courtyard.

Xiao Xiaofan was sitting naked in a large wooden basin and Xiao Jingting was holding a big ladle to give him a bath. Xiao Xiaofan was full of excitement as he played in the water. Xiao Xiaodong kept a straight face as he looked at this “disgraceful” scene with an unhappy face.

Xiao Jingting quickly wrapped Xiao Xiaofan in a towel and asked Xiao Xiaodong to take Xiao Xiaofan in to get dressed.

Xiao Xiaofan intentionally kicked him with his slippers and reluctantly followed Xiao Xiaodong into the house.

Xiao Jinfeng looked at the two small kids leaving, slightly stunned in his heart. In Xiao Jinfeng’s impression, Xiao Jingting had never been nice to his little sons but just now he saw the happy scene between father and son.

Xiao Xiaofan entered the room and rolled around in bed, avoiding Xiao Xiaodong’s hands.

“I won’t wear it. I won’t wear it.”

“You are not ashamed to be naked and you are not ashamed to take a bath in broad daylight.” Xiao Xiaodong’s tone was full of frustration.

“No, I’m not afraid. Father says I’m still young, it doesn’t matter. Brother, you should also ask father to help you bathe ah! Father’s bath is very comfortable.” Xiao Xiaofan rubbed his feet and said.

Xiao Xiaodong blushed and said, “I will wash by myself.”

“Oh.” Xiao Xiaofan lay on the bed and crawled around. Xiao Xiaodong couldn’t help but feel a little jealous as he looked at Xiao Xiaofan’s lazy appearance.

The atmosphere was a bit tense as the brothers met in the courtyard.

“Second brother, let’s go into the house first.” Xiao Jingting was a little embarrassed.

Xiao Jinfeng nodded, and after the two brothers exchanged pleasantries for a while, Xiao Jingting settled Xiao Jinfeng in his room. Then he looked for Xiao Xiaodong and Xiao Xiaofan as he gave Xiao Jinfeng and Mu Shuyu a lot of food.

Seeing that Xiao Jinfeng was a bit tired, Xiao Jingting did not ask any more questions and directly urged Xiao Jinfeng to rest.

“Didn’t you go to pick up the second brother? How did you come back with two people? ” Xiao Jingting asked in puzzlement.

“Mu Shuyu saved your second brother and he has been the one taking care of your second brother all this time.” Xu Muan explained.

Xiao Jingting rolled his eyes and thought in his heart: There is a saying on the earth that if you wanted to repay your lifesaver, just marry him. Something must be going on between them!

“What are you thinking about?” Xu Muan looked at Xiao Jingting’s pensive appearance and asked.

“I was thinking that there are only three rooms in the house. I was going to give up my room to second brother and squeeze in with you and two children, but now there is an extra person.” Xiao Jingting was a bit embarrassed.

Xu Muan couldn’t help but blush a little when he heard Xiao Jingting wanted to squeeze into a room with him and the children. Although he and Xiao Jingting were husband and wife, and even had two children, their relationship was very rigid. He only had sex with Xiao Jingting twice, and both times when Xiao Jingting was drunk.

“That Mu Shuyu is a Ger! It doesn’t seem to be a good idea to let him share a room with second brother!” Xiao Jingting said.

Xu Muan blushed and said, “Actually, when I found second brother, he was already living with Mu Shuyu.”

Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “Is that so? Then it is okay for them to share the same room.”

“What’s going on with the second brother, anyway? When I saw that second brother’s state isn’t very good, I didn’t ask for details.” Xiao Jingting said.

Xu Muan said, “Your second brother’s mercenary team spent a lot of effort to kill a fifth level demonic beast but Zhou Kangqi came over to pick it up saying he was the one who saw it first and wanted the mercenary team to give it to him. The demonic beast was hunted by the mercenary team with great efforts so naturally it was impossible for them to give it up. The two sides got into a fight, your second brother got impatient and beat Zhou Kanqi but got seriously injured.”

“The two sides parted unhappily. After Zhou Kangqi was injured, he held a grudge against your brother and found someone to poison him. Your brother was already injured and then poisoned, so his strength is not as good as before.”

“At this time, the Zhou family first put pressure on the mercenary team, making them expel your brother. When the mercenary team saw that your brother had no backing and could not compete with the strength of the Zhou family, they lied that your brother robbed the prey of young master Zhou and expelled your brother from the mercenary team.”

“Shameless!” Xiao Jingting angrily said.

Xu Muan shook his head and said, “The mercenary team was unanimous so your brother wouldn’t be able to explain even if he had a thousand mouths! Besides, your second brother was never a person who was good with words.”

Xiao Jingting gave a cold smile. It was because the original body owner’s parents were no longer here so they lost their power. If the parents of the original body owner were still there, the mercenary team would still try to curry favor and would not let Xiao Jinfeng be framed.
