Chapter 47 -47 He Belongs to Her Alone!_1

It was Gousheng’s wife, Hehua, Xiao Changyi’s brother.

After giving birth to Xiao Changyi, Xiao Chen’s also had two more children, a second son, Xiao Gousheng, and a third daughter, Xiao Xiaomei.

Gousheng was lazy and gluttonous, and he always beat his wife Hehua. Being timid by nature, she had been beaten so often that she now dared not speak loudly and was always timid.

Meanwhile, Xiao Xiaomei had married into the town and seldom returned home.

Having a daughter married off to the town was indeed a prestigious matter that brought honor to the family in the village, and everyone thus regarded Mrs. Chen a bit higher.

However, Xiao Xiaomei rarely visited her parental home.

As for why Xiao Changyi’s younger brother was called Gousheng, An Jing planned to wait for Xiao Changyi to return and ask him about it. Xiao Changyi? Xiao Gousheng? Such a disparity in names!

“Is Big Brother here?” Hehua stammered timidly, her voice so low it was pitiful.

Had An Jing not had excellent hearing, she wouldn’t have understood what Hehua was saying.

“He’s not here, he went to fetch water. Are you looking for him for something?” An Jing asked indifferently.

“Then… then could you tell him that mom wants him to come home for a bit?” Hehua mumbled quietly and, without waiting for An Jing to respond, she hurried away as if this place were the Underworld hell, not looking back even once.

An Jing knew that Hehua was afraid of being inadvertently harmed by Xiao Changyi, and her usually expressionless eyes suddenly turned cold.

They said that Xiao Changyi was born under an unlucky star, harming his elders and siblings? As a modern person who upheld science, could she believe such a thing? Absurd! Her man was doing fine! Her man was a treasure, and if they didn’t want him, she did! She alone wanted him! He was hers alone!

As for Mrs. Chen asking Xiao Changyi to return home, it was likely because she had heard that Xiao Changyi had made some money and wanted to ask him for some. Otherwise, given Mrs. Chen’s self-preserving nature, she would never have contacted Xiao Changyi voluntarily.

Back in the day, each household had to send one man to serve in military service, and this service meant marching to one’s death, not civil service. Villagers had never seen anyone return alive. Mrs. Chen, not wanting Gousheng to go and die, had called back Xiao Changyi to serve instead.

After being abandoned for many years, to summon him back to be sent to the battlefield… Mrs. Chen truly had a heart of stone and was utterly unworthy of being Xiao Changyi’s mother!

Her man had no such mother!

As her feelings for Xiao Changyi deepened, and she cared more about what he cared about, she held him completely in her heart. At that moment, An Jing despised Mrs. Chen so fiercely she wished she could scatter her ashes to the winds.

An Jing rarely hated anyone.

The only other time she had hated someone like this was when her parents were caught by a cruel gang leader during a mission. That gang leader was extremely ruthless and had dismembered both her parents. She watched her parents’ bodies, so fragmented they couldn’t be pieced back together, unable to even cry.

At that time, her hatred for that gang leader reached the ultimate extreme.

It wasn’t until she later became a special forces soldier and took revenge with her own hands by slaying that gang leader that she was able to cry, weeping aloud in front of her parents’ grave.

Her grandparents had passed away when she was in high school, and then her parents died too; her parents had only had her, and then it was just her alone until she sacrificed herself for her country and came here.

Things were better now; she was no longer alone, she had Xiao Changyi, and Xiao Changyi would always be with her.

Thinking that Xiao Changyi would always accompany her from now on, An Jing’s eyes slowly warmed up.
