Chapter 1861: Fooling?
The middle-aged man showed a look of realization.
Then his brows furrowed even tighter, "Isn't that matter over?"
"We have educated the children well."
"He also promised us that he would never abuse cats again..."
"He lied!"
The excitement made the old lady's voice a little sharp.
"Old woman."
The old man hurriedly grabbed the old lady's arm and said, "Calm down."
"I have something to say-"
"What happened?"
came a female voice.
Everyone looked at the sound.
"Little Li."
The old lady called out the other person's name.
It’s the child’s mother.
The woman looked at the middle-aged man's somewhat depressed expression, and then looked at the two elderly people.
His eyes stayed on the unfamiliar young man for a few seconds.
"Don't talk at the door if you have something to say."
"Go inside and talk."
The woman walked up the last step and signaled the man to open the door with her eyes.
The old lady shook her head, "No, let's talk in our room."
"The child is at home."
It's not okay to say those things in front of children.
"No, let's talk in our room."
The middle-aged man opened the door directly and asked, "Didn't you say that the child lied?"
"This needs to be confirmed with the child in person, right?"
There was a hint of anger in the polite words.
The old man smiled bitterly.
He knew it.
He said it all, such a thankless task...
"Then let's talk in your room."
The old lady was straightforward.
She anticipated the possible attitude of the child's parents from the beginning.
She doesn't care either.
She did what she thought she should do.
Just have a clear conscience.
As for the outcome, it is not up to her to decide.
She hoped...it would be a good result.
"Who is this?"
Seeing a strange young man following the old man into their house, the woman asked in confusion.
"This is Xiao Xiao."
The old lady introduced, "It is because of him that I have the nerve to tell you about Xiaoji again."
"Bang~"
It was the sound of a door closing.
"Xiaoji?"
The woman and the man looked at each other.
There was a look of confusion on his face.
What's wrong with this kid?
After their initial surprise, the two old men's faces showed some understanding because of their inner guesses.
"Maybe it's because I saw Xiao Xiao."
The old lady's words stopped the two of them from walking towards the child's room.
".What's the meaning?"
The woman pursed her lips.
She had a bad feeling in her heart.
She always felt that what she was going to hear next wouldn't be something that would make her happy.
"That's why we came to you."
The old lady felt a little relieved.
Finally, the topic has been opened.
Now that we have started, the rest will be easy.
"Let's talk in the living room."
Seeing that the couple were just looking at her with confusion, the old lady took the initiative and spoke.
"it is good."
The indifference in her heart disappeared, and the woman walked towards the living room first.
"No need to work anymore."
Seeing the woman was about to pour them some water, the old lady stopped her and said, "Sit down, everyone."
"Grandma Zhang"
The woman still poured water for several guests.
"Thank you."
The old lady held the water cup in both hands, and seemed to feel more at ease.
"The old lady came straight to the point."
"It won't take up too much of your time."
"I came to tell you about the child abusing the cat before." "Isn't that matter over?"
The woman frowned and interrupted the old lady.
Honestly, no parent wants to hear that from someone else.
Cat abuse?
To put it mildly, the child is just being naughty.
To put it more seriously, it may involve the child's character.
What's more, there is a stranger here.
The woman felt unhappy because the old man openly told outsiders about his child abusing a cat.
"not end yet."
The old lady shook her head.
Not to mention that she was mentally prepared, the man's attitude before also reminded her, so she didn't take the woman's attitude as an offense.
"Xiao Xiao. This young man saw Xiao Ji abusing the cat."
The old man's words made both the man and the woman open their eyes wide in surprise.
"Really?"
The woman didn't believe it.
That child obviously.
"Is this even fake?"
The old lady sighed.
She didn't want it to be true.
Just face it when it happens.
Solving the problem is the most important thing.
"How do you think the kid got his baseball bat in his hand?"
At this point, the woman let out a puzzled exclamation.
The man whispered a few explanations to her.
A look of realization soon appeared on the woman's face.
But soon, the woman's relaxed brows closed together, revealing a hint of gloom.
"Why do you think the child hid when he saw him?"
The old lady continued.
"Xiao Xiao stopped the child's behavior."
"Took the baseball bat out of the child's hand."
"When he asked the child why he did that, the child ran back."
"Xiao Xiao also chased after the kid in order to return the baseball bat."
"But the child wouldn't open the door for him."
"I ignored him."
"I saw him standing at your door. He was a stranger-"
The old lady smiled and said, "After all, we have been neighbors for so many years, and I am familiar with most of your relatives and friends."
“I went up to him and asked him who he was looking for.”
"I found out later on what happened."
The old lady looked at the couple seriously and said, "I thought I should let you know about this."
"You said before that the child admitted his mistake."
"Promise not to do anything like this again."
The old lady did not explicitly say the word cat abuse.
She knew the child's parents didn't like to hear it.
"But."
The old lady shook her head slightly.
"I don't think this is a big deal, but it's not a small deal either."
"It's still necessary to pay due attention."
"At least that's why the kids do it."
"You have to ask."
"So that we can prescribe the right medicine for the disease."
"Xiao Ji said he was possessed by a ghost and did this for no reason."
The woman murmured, "Maybe it was influenced by the TV series"
As for what TV series it was, they didn't ask in such detail.
"The child was very remorseful at the time."
"We have little recollection of ever seeing a child like that."
"That child has always been sensible. We don't need to worry too much about him, whether in study or life."
"I saw that the child really knew he was wrong. I talked to the child's father and the matter was over."
"Is he fooling us?"
The woman's voice was very soft.
Even the man sitting next to her didn't hear it clearly.
But Xiao Xiao heard it clearly.
"Why not ask yourself?"
"what?"
Except for the woman, everyone else was a little confused by Xiao Xiao's slightly abrupt words.
The woman was stunned.
Ask myself?
Yes.
The woman made up her mind.
Now is not the time to care about face.
