Chapter 1305: Chapter 1305: Mother and Child Unalike 3

Having heard Zhao Xiaolan’s words, Zhang Xiaobao turned to look at her, his face unable to hide his fury.

"When did I get a partner? How come I don’t know about it? Do you realize I’m not even of age? Even if I had a partner, getting married is my own business, there’s no need for you to worry about it! If I had to exchange my elder sisters’ whole lives for the expenses of my wedding, then I’d rather not get married at all because I would feel ashamed!"

Zhao Xiaolan opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but Zhang Xiaobao interrupted her, "If you say one more word, if you come to disturb Erya’s life again, I will not provide for you and Dad in your old age, and let you fend for yourselves!"

"Xiaobao..." Zhao Xiaolan became anxious, grabbing him, "Xiaobao, you can’t do this!"

What’s the point of having a son? Isn’t it for having someone to rely on and to provide for you in your old age?

Everyone who heard the mother and son’s conversation felt deeper disgust towards Zhao Xiaolan, but some goodwill towards Zhang Xiaobao.

He knew to protect his sister, knew to stop his mother’s vile actions; his character was commendable!

Zhang Xiaobao then addressed his mother, "I can! Anyway, you only have me as a son now! If you want me to care for you in old age, come with me now and don’t come here anymore!"

With that, he shook off his mother’s hand once more and turned to walk outside.

Zhao Xiaolan glared fiercely at Erya, then chased after him, "Xiaobao, wait for me, wait for me!"

Erya thought for a moment, lifted her foot wanting to follow and ask Zhao Xiaolan how she knew to find her here. Without resolving this doubt, she wouldn’t be at ease. But she felt a firm grip on her hand and, turning around, saw it was Jiang He holding her, "Jiang He?"

Jiang He shook his head at her, "There are still guests at home."

When they used to live in the ruined temple, the Zhang family and Guan Cheng’s stepfather’s family lived on the same street; they must have shared information between them.

Erya then remembered that today was her own wedding, and not everyone had left, so she promptly apologized to the guests.

"It’s alright," Feng Qingxue said, a faint smile appearing on her face, "Although the appearance of outsiders today made the wedding less than perfect, I still want to congratulate you. Just as your brother said, the two of you living well together is the most important thing; you must also keep your promise to weather the storms together."

Jiang He earnestly replied, "Auntie Xue, rest assured, we definitely will."

Erya nodded in agreement, "Right, Auntie Xue, our lives have not been easy to come by, we will cherish our current life and not allow anyone to destroy our happiness."

Everyone laughed, adding their encouragements, "Exactly, living well is the most important thing, everything else is trivial."

Back at home, Feng Qingxue said to Guan Cheng, "Remind Jiang He when you have time one day."

"Remind him of what?" Guan Cheng, who was carrying Xiongxiong on his neck, paused in confusion.

"It’s necessary to guard against those who wish us ill!" Feng Qingxue poured some warm water for Dundun and Zhuangzhuang without lifting her head, "Although Zhang Xiaobao seemed to have a good attitude today, his mother is no easy person to deal with! Not knowing what sort of person Erya’s father is and how they found this place, we naturally have to stay cautious."

In comparison with Guan Yu’s complicated family background, Erya’s was simpler to handle and wasn’t as problematic. However, Feng Qingxue always felt uneasy, suspecting that the Zhang family might have other moves up their sleeve, but she wasn’t clever enough to guess their intentions.

Guan Cheng pondered for a moment and nodded, "I will."

... With the two rascals at home, I’ve overcome countless difficulties to write up to this point. I’ll update for now; otherwise, I fear I won’t be able to.
