Chapter 209: Chapter 209: Raising a White-eyed Wolf
In Zhang Caidie’s mournful cries, Zhang Xingjie finally sighed and helped her up.
He looked at the three Yue children with a face full of guilt.
“This was our fault, I’ll take Caidie back first, and then I’ll personally come by to apologize later.”
Yue Xingxing held her notebook, its cover smeared beyond recognition, and tears fell like broken pearls onto the ground.
Yue Qingqing also picked up her own notebook and, without paying any attention to the siblings, helped Xiaohu leave.
Xiaohu glared fiercely at Zhang Caidie before limping in the direction of home.
Yue Qingqing could not believe a child could harbor such malicious thoughts.
If Zhang Caidie had stolen it simply out of envy, that would have been one thing.
But seeing how she had ruined the cover, it was clear this was a case of spite that hurt others without benefiting herself.
Make her own life miserable, and make sure the Yue family didn’t have it any better.
Zhang Xingjie seemed decent enough, but with such a sister…
After the Yue sisters returned home, the household was angry when they heard what had happened.
Wang Xiaoni used safflower oil to massage her son’s ankles, unusually scorning harshly.
“Dad’s no good, and that girl has an even worse heart, truly what a bad seed from bad breeding!”
Yue Xiaohu screamed in pain, crying out, “Mom, gentler, gentler, it’s my foot, not Zhang Caidie’s!”
Yue Jianxi scolded, “Feeling pain now? That Zhang boy is a head taller than you, didn’t you size up yourself before acting?”
He rarely lectured his child, and Xiaohu didn’t dare to complain about the pain again, only quietly defended himself after a while.
“But I couldn’t just watch my sisters being bullied.”
Yue Jianxi and Wang Xiaoni exchanged a look, and it was not appropriate to criticize him at this point.
“Protecting your sisters is good, but you also need to think about how you do it.”
Yue Qingqing came running from the kitchen, her hands holding a steaming enamel jar.
“Xiaohu, drink some honey water.”
Yue Xiaohu took it, blew on it twice, and eagerly gulped it down.
It was so hot that his tongue almost felt numb, yet it tasted sweet in his heart.
“Hehe, thanks Sister Qingqing.”
Yue Xingxing sat morosely on the bed, still upset.
“It was a gift from Teacher Sun, the original cover was so beautiful.”
Yue Xiaohu wanted to scoff, it was just a cat and a mouse, what’s beautiful about that?
Seeing his sister’s expression, he ultimately didn’t dare to speak his mind.
At that moment, Yue Xiaofang came over holding two notebooks, smiling brightly, “Xingxing, Qingqing, guess what this is?”
The children turned to look, and Yue Xiaofang held the notebooks, now covered with a new layer of kraft paper.
The cover was redrawn to replicate the original design and had been colored before being left to dry.
She even added some flowers and grasses girls liked on the sides.
Yue Xiaofang was skillful, and she had nearly replicated it perfectly.
Yue Xingxing’s eyes widened, and she took the notebook, blowing on it carefully.
“Thank you, Auntie!”
Yue Qingqing took her notebook and thanked her, while Yue Xiaohu beside them just beamed foolishly.
For the children, the matter was thus settled.
After dinner, Butcher Zhang personally brought his son and Zhang Caidie to apologize.
In front of Lin Chunju, he gave Zhang Xingjie a slap on the head.
His hand was like a fan, the slap turning Zhang Xingjie’s head slightly to the side, and he didn’t dare to complain of pain.
“This little bastard told me everything, we’re terribly sorry, it’s all our fault, consider these as compensation to help the kids calm down.”
Zhang Qianhai’s face appeared honest, and Lin Chunju, giving face, accepted the meat.
“Conflict among kids is one thing, if there’s any mistake, it’s on us adults who didn’t teach them properly, we can’t indulge them this way.”
Zhang Caidie furtively glared at Lin Chunju.
This old widow only knew how to stir the pot, surely there wasn’t a single good person in Yue family.
Zhang Qianhai bowed in response and then had Zhang Xingjie and Zhang Caidie apologize to the three Yue children.

Zhang Xingjie apologized shamefully, and Zhang Caidie also obediently admitted her wrong.
She merely said she envied the notebooks Teacher Sun had gifted Yue Xingxing and Yue Qingqing, having never seen such beautiful items, which led to her ill thoughts.
Listening, Zhang Qianhai’s heart softened; after all, the child had lost her father, and He Zhenzhen didn’t show enough love to Zhang Caidie.
He resolved that, next time he went to the market, he must look for, and buy Caidie an even more beautiful notebook.
Certainly, she wouldn’t covet others’ possessions then.
Yue Qingqing’s eyes keenly observed this father-daughter duo.
Zhang Qianhai was quite a good-natured and naive man, but unfortunately good intentions don’t always lead to good results.
Zhang Caidie bore the same traits as Wang Jinshun.
The Zhang family had to be cautious not to raise an ingrate.
