The Green Tea’s Crushing Victories in the ’70s

Chapter 420 - She ran a high fever that night. (4)

Tong Xuelu had no idea what Cai Chunlan had done to herself. She saw Tong Jiaxin’s cheeks reddened from excitement that moment that she stepped foot at home.

She looked at the siblings and asked, “What happened? Why are you all so happy?”Tong Xuelu quickly pulled out is examination paper. “Big Sister, I got 61 on my math examination and 60 on my literature one. I passed!”Tong Xuelu took over and took a look. He barely passed the examination but he passed, nonetheless.Tong Xuelu returned the examination paper back to him and said, “Very well. You won’t have to be sent away and you will be able to have meat during your winter break and new year.”Tong Jiaxin felt that it had been a long and arduous journey.He had done so much just to have meat!Tong Xuelu said, “You need to keep it up. Our wager continues if you ever fail your examinations.”Tong Jiaxin, “……”This was when he recalled that there was no time limit on the wager. Meaning that his sister would be able to hold him to it whenever she wanted.He had been tricked!!!Tong Jiaming got full marks again. As a reward, Tong Xuelu gave him 2 yuan.Seeing that both of her two brothers had been praised, Tong Mianmian quickly pulled out her drawing from earlier in the day. “Look, Big Sister. Mianmian drew this!”Tong Xuelu took the drawing from her. She noticed three blurbs that one could sort of made out as humans. She counted a total of three of them.Tong Xuelu rubbed her on her head and asked, “What is this that Mianmian had drawn?”Tong Mianmian said in her milky voice. “Big Sister, Second Brother, and Mianmian. Then there are Third Brother, Mooncake, and Xiao Lu.”Tong Jiaxin poked his head over. He looked and looked but was not able to locate himself. “Didn’t you say I am in this drawing, Mianmian? Where am I?”Tong Mianmian pointed at a blob with her chubby little finger. “This is Third Brother.”Tong Jiaxin’s lips twitched. “Why do I look like the rest of you. And what are those two other blobs next to me?”Tong Mianmian, “Mooncake and Xiao Lu.”Tong Jiaxin cried out loudly, “Why do I look exactly the same as Mooncake and Xiao Lu? What is going through that head of yours? I’m a human! I’m not a dog or a chicken!”Tong Mianmian touched her fingers together, “But Third Brother is ugly!”Subtext: You are ugly. Therefore, you are not human.Tong Jiaxin felt like he had been stabbed. “…………”Tong Xuelu couldn't help but busted out laughing. The little bun was getting better and better at stabbing others with words.Tong Jiaming’s lips, too, curved upward.***It was way less harmonious over at the Wen’s.Old Mr. Wen tossed a bunch of stuff onto the floor and threw his cane at them. “What was that woman thinking? Did she really think that I would not take care of her?”Uncle Zong quickly comforted him. “Relax, Commander Xiao. You don’t want to let someone like that get to you.”The post man dropped something off today. It was from City Jian.There were no Wen family members in City Jian. That woman was the only one there.Never mind that she would send over packages from time to time. She sent over a letter this time as well. On top of that, there was a photo in the letter. It was said that the girl in the photo was Wen Rugui’s little sister.The woman even shameless said that she wanted to mee tup with Wen Rugui and that he should meet his little sister.Never mind about Old Mr. Wen. Even Uncle Zong was livid when he saw the letter!How did she have the audacity to face Rugui after what she had done to the Wen family?!Old Mr. Wen’s face was dark. “Xiao Zong, go and place a call to her tomorrow and remind her to behave herself. Else I can’t promise what I won’t do to her.”They had been putting up with her over the years only because she was Rugui’s mother.Considering what she had done back then, the Wen had been more than nice to her. If she insisted on trying things, they would have to take care of her then!Uncle Zong brought over a glass of warm water. “Okay, I will go tomorrow. Have some water, Commander Xiao. I will go and burn these.”Old Mr. Wen nodded. His brows furrowing.What a mess!
