Transmigrating: I Married the Male Protagonist's Uncle

Chapter 975: Swindled

Upon seeing that the situation was worsening, Su Xiyin hurriedly pulled Ling Sheng to her side. She looked at the small, skinny, and awfully obedient little girl, lowered her voice, and asked, “He tricked you into coming, right? Tell Auntie where your house is. Auntie will get someone to send you back.”

Look at what he had done. Daughter? How old was he himself? His coming-of-age ceremony had not even passed two days ago, yet he had dragged such a grown young lady over to tell them that she was a daughter!

“You’re not my auntie. You’re my grandma.” Ling Sheng shook her head and looked at the beautiful married woman in front of her seriously. “Grandma, I’m really your granddaughter!”

Su Xiyin looked at the child with distress. She was so young and looked quite quick-witted too. But how did she become mentally ill? Ci’er must have told her to say that to anger his father. She pulled her hand. “What did he tell you? How did he deceive you?”

“Grandma, look at my face. Look at my eyes, nose, and mouth. Don’t they look exactly like my father’s?” Ling Sheng pointed at her father, who was running everywhere around the house while being chased.

Ha ha ha! No matter what era it was, Grandpa would hit him whenever he wanted. There was no room for negotiation!

There was a lot of commotion in the living room. The third son, Huo Ji, and the fourth son, Huo Li, had returned to stay at the main residence for the weekend with their wives. Upon hearing that Huo Ci had returned and was being beaten up too, they all came out to watch him make a fool of himself.

Xiao Hui, who had been out for a while, had also heard Huo Ci’s shameful words. She looked at that tiny young lady in the living room, who looked like she was 14 or 15 years old. She already looked like a little vixen at such a young age. How dislikable!

Ye Ru was the last to come out. She walked over and stood beside Xiao Hui. She asked, “What did Sixth Brother do this time? To get chased and beaten by our father.”

“Do you see that?” Xiao Hui pointed at Ling Sheng. The corner of her eye raised as she swept her gaze over her haughtily from her peripheral. “That girl. I don’t know where he found that girl. He said she’s his daughter, his biological daughter.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Ru covered her mouth and laughed out loud. “Sixth Brother really is getting more and more outrageous! How old is he? Where did he get such a grown daughter? That girl must be here to swindle us!”

“Sixth Brother brought her over. A few days ago, he asked Father for money. He said that he wants to start a telecommunication company, produce electronic products, and do research and development. Shouldn’t he think about how much money that kind of thing will cost? Father didn’t give him the money and he even scolded him, saying that he wasn’t properly studying in school. Hence, he’s deliberately causing Father trouble!” Xiao Hui pursed her lips and looked at him sideways.

Tsk, he was just a small fry who was still wet behind the ears. How could he do business? Shouldn’t he see if he was suitable? Or whether he was worthy?!

“That’s right. Foreign companies have been researching for decades before they managed to build such products. He thinks he can create it just by fiddling around blindly. He takes it for granted that he’ll succeed.” Ye Ru really didn’t know that such a thing had happened. She took a look at the young lady standing in the living room. Actually, she really did resemble Sixth Brother a little. Who knew where he had found her.

Ling Sheng had discovered the duo a long time ago. They had become young and pretty, but their habit of watching shows had not changed at all through the years. She smiled while she looked at them and waved as a greeting. “Hi, Third Aunt and Fourth Aunt.”

Xiao Hui frowned. Pah! Who does she think she is? She doesn’t even know her own place! Who’s her aunt? What nonsense was she spouting?!

Ye Ru felt suspicious. Had Sixth Brother told her everything? How did that young lady know their identities and address them so accurately?

Su Xiyin had not expected Ling Sheng to greet her two daughters-in-law so naturally either. She thought that her son must have told her.

However, Huo Ci was stunned. While he was in a daze, he got beaten a few times. His handsome face contorted as he shouted, “Dad, it’s true! She’s my daughter! If you don’t believe me, let us do a DNA test immediately.”

“A test?” Huo Xiao’s anger rose. He grabbed him and refused to let go, beating him hard. He gritted his teeth. “How did you trick a nice young lady over?”

“I told you she’s my daughter! Who else would she follow, if not me? How could I let her sleep on the streets?!” Huo Ci sucked in a breath of cold air in pain and shouted, “Mom, aren’t you going to control my dad? He’s going to beat your son to death soon.”

Su Xiyin did not interfere, but Ling Sheng ran over to hold Huo Xiao back. “Grandpa, I’m sorry. I don’t have a home to return to, so I asked my father to bring me back here.”

With Huo Xiao’s temper, and he was in a fit of anger, no one could stop him. He raised the feather duster and lashed it toward Huo Ci.

However, he hadn’t expected the young lady to run over all of a sudden and stand in front of his son to block him. He only heard a pained groan before her small body trembled.

Huo Xiao could no longer continue swinging the feather duster in his hand down. He looked at the young lady who had taken a hit and sighed angrily. “Young lady, where’s your house? Uncle begs you to go home quickly. Don’t fool around with this scumbag from my home.”

When she saw that he had hit Ling Sheng, Su Xiyin ran over hurriedly. She tugged at Ling Sheng with a distressed look and asked if she was in pain. She pointed at Huo Xiao angrily. “Don’t you have eyes? Can’t you strike after identifying the right person clearly?!”

She did not know why either, but she simply felt a sense of familiarity and joy when she saw this little girl. Her heart ached so badly when she saw her get beaten up.

Huo Xiao had not expected her to rush up and take a beating for his son. He glared at Huo Ci ferociously, feeling quite apologetic too. “Girl, Uncle didn’t look carefully. I’m sorry. This scumbag from my family is used to causing trouble. If he did something wrong to you, I’ll apologize. You can ask Uncle for anything that you want.”

Ling Sheng had suffered a solid blow. Her clothes were thin too, and her wound was throbbing in pain. She looked at him with a pair of red eyes. “Grandpa, I don’t want anything. I just want to stay at our house. I don’t want to sleep on the streets or overhead bridges anymore.”

Upon hearing this, Huo Xiao thought, ‘So, this girl is actually an orphan.’ He glanced at his dastardly son and then, the pitiful young girl—who made one feel sorry for her, his heart softened. “Okay, okay, okay! Don’t cry. You can stay as long as you want.”

It wasn’t like they could not afford to raise a child at home anyway. She was also a girl. As long as this little b*stard Ci’er did not get any ideas about her, everything would be fine.

He did not want that scumbag to bring misfortune to the young lady.

Huo Ci looked at the girl and frowned slightly. F*ck, she was really too good at pretending to be pitiful. Just her teary look made one long to give her whatever she wanted, no matter what it was.

His father’s nasty temper had actually subsided in front of her. It was not like there were no girls at home; Huo Feifei was one. She tried to please Dad all day long and was honey-tongued. However, he had never seen his father show her a good attitude.

Su Xiyin’s heart ached as she pulled the child into the house. She touched her ice-cold hands. “Why didn’t you wear more clothing on such a chilly day?”

No matter who this child was, her son was the one who had gotten her involved in the end. They could not just chase her away on a snowy day and ignore her completely. Such a heartless act was not something they could do either.
