Xiao Jingting was hurriedly packing up. Xu Muan asked Xiao Jingting who was as busy as a bee, “Are we leaving today?”

Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “Yes! The sooner, the better. Our son is more troublesome than any other boy.”

As long as he was not watching, Xiao Xiaofan could fight with the others. Although Xiaofan was innocent, it would not be allowed if he always fought like this. He could protect his son once or twice, but he would be helpless if his son kept fighting.

Xu Muan nodded and said, “You’re right.” It was clear that Xiao Linfeng and Wang Lu were very impatient to their younger son. Xiao Linfeng and Wang Lu had played favorites for a long time, which was not easily changed.

“Hurry up. We’re leaving,” said Xiao Xiaodong.

Xiao Xiaofan was rolling on the bed excitedly. “It’s cool. We won’t stay in this lame place anymore.” he said.

Xiao Xiaodong looked at joyful Xiao Xiaofan, and said in an ironic way, “Yes, it’s cool! Otherwise, you’ll be beaten all day in this place.”

Xiao Xiaofan turned himself over depressingly, raised his fists and said, “That bastard Xiao Yuerong! I must beat him as I grow up.”

Xiao Xiaofan smiled coldly, and said, “You can beat him if you are strong, otherwise he can beat you if you’re not.”

Xiao Xiaofan looked at his brother with depression, and said, “Brother, you’re really bothersome. You always leave me frustrated.”

Xu Muan came in and said, “Hurry up to tidy up. We are leaving very soon. Everything will be left behind if you have no time to pack them up.”

Xiao Xiaofan jumped up from the bed, “Wait for me, wait for me! I have too many toys and I can’t leave them behind.”

Xiao Xiaodong snorted and said with disdain, “A little kid is a little kid, who only cares about playing with toys.”

Xiao Xiaofan took a look at Xiao Xiaodong. He curled his lips and said, “Brother, I saw you secretly playing with my toys.”

Xiao Xiaodong’s face turned red slightly. He said unhappily, “You’re wrong.”

Xiao Xiaofan frowned and argued, “Am I wrong? My little toy duck was broken, but I didn’t play with it very much. It must be you who broke it.”

Xiao Xiaodong’s face turned rose red and he said, “It’s you who do not take care of it. I have nothing to do with your broken toy.”

“No, it’s you who broke it,” said Xiao Xiaofan in a gloomy way.

“You broke it and forgot it,” said Xiao Xiaodong.

Looking at Xiao Xiaodong as an unredeemable boy, Xiao Xiaofan said, “My memory is not so bad. Don’t humiliate me as you think I am stupid.”

Xiao Xiaodong hit back, “Your memory has always been very bad.”

Xu Muan looked at the two little ones helplessly and said, “Stop it, don’t say a word any more. You will have to leave your things behind later if you have no time to tidy them up. We’re leaving here soon.”

Xiao Xiaofan was frightened and said, “Slow down please!”

Xiao Xiaofan turned to Xiao Xiaodong and said, “Brother, I don’t haggle over the toys with you, but you must help me tidy up the toys.”

“I never played with your toys, but since you are so pitiful, I will help you tidy them up,” said Xiao Xiaodong with complacency.

Xiao Xiaofan nodded and said in a helpless way, “All right, all right, you have won. Please help me move the toys to the chart.”

Outside the door did Xiao Jingting look at his two sons coming in and out as busy as two little bees. He said to himself, ‘I don’t know Xiaofan has had so many toys already. A kid is a kid, who cares noting but the toys when making a move. Xiaodong really has brotherly love! He is usually tough to Xiaofan, but he has brotherly love at a critical moment’.

…………………

“Are they really leaving?” Xiao Qingyan asked Zheng Pei’er.

Zheng pei’er nodded and said, “Yes!”

“In such a hurry,” said Xiao Qingyan with some suspicion. He had thought that Xiao Jingting would stay with his parents for a while to please them.

Recently, a lot of people had come to visit his parents, praising Xiao Jingting as a prodigal son, with fewer people praising himself. He has been a level 5 Qi practitioner for a long time, which was not a fresh news any more.

It seemed that his parents had a better attitude toward Xiao Jingting after they received many compliments for their son.

Xiao Qingyan squinted his eyes, deep in thought. He had been a level 5 Qi practitioner for too long. It was likely that he would not keep his status if he could not make a breakthrough to the next level, although a lot of people were likely to be a level 5 Qi practitioner for a long time.

“Perhaps they want to make concessions in order to gain advantages,” said Zheng Pei’er in a gloomy voice. Father and mother would feel more ashamed and uneasy for Xiao Jingting if he left the family.

“Ten thousand taels of silver for one month. Xiao Jingting is a real madman. I don’t believe that he can pay back the money from farming. When the time comes that he has no money to pay, I’m afraid he will have to cry for help from my parents,” said Xiao Qingyan in an ironic way.

“Exactly,” Zheng Pei’er said, “his down payment must be earned from selling Heaven Wealth and Land Treasure.” She did not know how precious the spiritual plants were, which must be extraordinary, worth so much silver.

“A heartless man.” Xiao Qingyan felt heartache as he heard Heaven Wealth and Land Treasure as mentioned by Zheng Pei’er.

“Qingyan, is it the time for you to go back to the academy?” asked Zheng Pei’er.

Xiao Qingyan nodded, and said, “Yes.” He had been away from the academy for some long time. It would have adverse impact on him if he was away for too long, although a student was allowed to be away from the academy for some time. He had been away for so long that he could hardly stay at home any more.

“I have to ask the parents for some more silver, because it will be necessary when I am at the academy,” said Xiao Qingyan.

Xiao Qingyan said to himself, ‘I suffered a lot for being penniless when the parents suddenly disappeared. The guys at the academy are all snobs. I will lose my status at once if I do not have money.’

“We will be able to earn some money every month if the farmland is rent to others given by your parents,” said Zheng Pei’er.

Xiao Qingyan shot a cold glance at Zheng Pei’er and said, “You can make a decision for yourself. But, you must report the accounts to me every month.”

When his parents disappeared, Zheng Pei’er tried to make a divorce with Xiao Qingyan, so Xiao Qingyan was estranged from Zheng Pei’er. But after all, she gave birth to two sons for him, he still had more or less some love with her. Xiao Qingyan had no other appropriate person to entrust, so he could only entrust Zheng Pei’er.

Zheng Pei’er nodded and said, “You have my word.”
