Chapter 135 Big Brother Likes Xiaoju
Chapter 135 Big Brother likes Xiao Ju very much
However, what Mu Daiyao said just now still had a certain impact on Ling Qiao'er. At least now when she saw the children of the Ji family walking towards her, she didn't know what expression to show on their faces.
Ji Xiuping was the first to notice that someone's eyes were always on him.
He raised his eyes quietly at first, and after searching around, he soon knew who it was.
He was his stepmother's best friend, but why was he looking at them with such strange eyes? Was there something that happened that they didn't understand?
"Brother, what's wrong?"
The fourth brother Ji Xiujing saw that his eldest brother had slowed down his pace, so he also stopped and asked curiously.
"Nothing, I just saw an acquaintance, let's go over and say hello."
Ji Xiuping responded calmly, then faced Ling Qiaoer's unavoidable gaze and walked up to her, saying hello politely: "Sister Ling, are you here to pick up Xiaoju from get out of class? I was already here when I came out. I haven’t seen Xiaoju anymore.”
"Ah? No, no."
Ling Qiao'er didn't expect Ji Xiuping to come over directly like this. This was her first time dealing with the Ji family's children head-on, and she was a little at a loss for a moment.
Xiaoju, who was beside her, stuck her head out to help. She smiled shyly at Ji Xiuping and said in a low voice: "Brother Xiuping, I'm here."
Ji Xiuping couldn't resist Xiaoju's timid temperament. He was surrounded by either those with a tough temperament like the third sister, or those with an eccentric temperament like the fifth sister.
Even his stepmother was so submissive at first that she had no personality of her own, but now she seems to have become a completely different person, as hard to fathom.
So every time he saw Xiao Ju, Ji Xiuping couldn't help but feel his heart soften.
His voice became almost imperceptibly gentle. He looked at Xiao Ju and said, "Xiao Ju, you left the school too fast today. I didn't see you in the blink of an eye."
Xiaoju's face turned slightly red. She was embarrassed to say that it was because she saw too many people surrounding Ji Xiuping and she couldn't squeeze in, so she simply left in despair.
"I'm afraid my mother has been waiting for a long time."
But Xiaoju still wouldn't lie after all. After muttering this excuse in a low voice, she touched her hot earlobes and hid behind her mother.
"Xiuping, you seem to have a good relationship with my Xiaoju."
Ling Qiaoer reached out and touched Xiaoju's head behind her, then smiled at Ji Xiuping and said.
In fact, if it weren't for her good friend, Ling Qiaoer would have a very fond impression of a well-behaved and smart kid like Ji Xiuping.
Especially Ji Xiuping's handsome appearance made him even more special among a bunch of little brats.
"There's more than meets the eye."
The corner of Ji Xiu Ping's mouth raised, as if he had corrected Ling Qiao'er's words unintentionally, and then before Ling Qiao'er could realize what he meant, he changed the topic and said: "By the way, Sister Ling, since you have received the
Xiaoju, is there something else going on? I just saw you looking into the school."
Hearing this, Ling Qiaoer suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
She was not looking into the book school just now, but when she saw the children of the Ji family walking out, and thought of what Mu Daiyao said to herself, she felt a little guilty inexplicably, so she was raped by Ji Xiu.
By discovering something strange.
"I, I just..."
Ling Qiaoer stammered for a long time without uttering a complete sentence, but Xiao Ju behind him blinked. Thinking of what his mother had just said to him, he mustered up the courage to poke his little head out and look at Ji Xiuping.
He said, "My mother met Sister Yao just now and gave her a lot of candied haws-alongs. However, Sister Yao seemed to have something to do and was in a hurry to go back, so she gave all the candied haws-alongs to my mother."
Speaking of this, Xiaoju also pulled her mother's sleeves and reminded her to distribute the candied haws to Brother Xiu Ping and the others.
Ji Xiuping, who was still a little skeptical at first, heard Xiao Ju's explanation and didn't think much about it. Instead, he nodded and chose to believe what she said.
"I see."
Seeing her daughter's clever reply, Ling Qiaoer quickly reacted and distributed the candied haws in her hand to several children of the Ji family one by one.
Soon her hands were empty, and the smile on her face became natural: "Ah, that's right, that's it. Sister Yao specially asked me to bring these candied haws for you to eat. Come on, come on, one for each of you."
Ji Xiukai and Ji Xiuyun didn't think too much. They were happiest when they ate some.
It doesn't matter who bought it.
Although Ji Xiujing also took the candied haws, he looked at Ling Qiaoer's obviously relieved look and became a little confused.
Although their stepmother was good friends with Sister Ling, in his impression, they seemed to have not been in contact with each other for a long time.
Why did their relationship suddenly become so close and they even asked her to stay and bring them candied haws to eat?
Ji Xiujing couldn't understand. He was just about to take his eldest brother aside to ask for clarification, but he saw his eldest brother staring at the candied haws in Xiao Ju's hand and suddenly said something to her.
"Xiao Ju, you can't eat too much sweet food, it will hurt your teeth."
"But brother Xiu Ping, I don't usually eat sweet things." Xiao Ju was obviously not fooled. She hid her candied haws behind her with some vigilance, shook her head and said to Ji Xiuping: "And brother Xiu Ping, you
You can eat what you have, and you can’t eat mine secretly.”
"Xiao Ju, our relationship is so good, how can we say it's a secret? You leave it to me for safekeeping now, and I will return it to you tomorrow, so you can have sweets today and tomorrow, right?"
Ji Xiu preached to Xiao Ju in a serious manner. If Ji Xiujing didn't know his elder brother very well and saw the smile flashing in his eyes, he would have thought that his elder brother was telling the truth.
"But, well, brother Xiu Ping, you must return it to me tomorrow. You can't lie to others."
Xiaoju hesitated for a moment, then looked up at her mother, and found that her mother didn't raise any objections, so she honestly handed over the candied haws in her hand to Ji Xiuping.
"Of course I won't lie to you, Xiaoju."
At this time, Ling Qiaoer saw that her daughter had such a close relationship with her friend's stepson, and she didn't know what to say for a moment.
But out of selfishness as a mother, she also wanted her children to have a good relationship with the children of the Ji family. After all, the eldest son of the Ji family was so outstanding that everyone in the school wanted to sit with him.
If Xiao Ju can learn even a little bit from him, my husband will be very happy, and maybe he won't always dislike Xiao Ju for being a girl in the future.
"Brother, don't you have a good relationship with Xiaoju?"
When the children of the Ji family said goodbye to Ling Qiaoer and walked home, Ji Xiujing found an opportunity and asked his eldest brother softly.
