Chapter 750: A Family Of Three (2)
Joy was stunned for quite a while before he finally understood. His small mouth twitched. Just when Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng thought that he was going to cry, they saw him snort coldly and pick up a snowball that he had just kneaded on the ground. He threw it directly at Mu Tingfeng.
There was a muffled sound. The child was not tall enough, plus his strength was relatively weak. The half-sized snowball was originally thrown at Mu Tingfeng’s face. However, it took a dip in the air and fiercely smashed into Mu Tingfeng’s shiny leather shoes. It created a very beautiful snowflake.
Zhao Youlin was stunned. When she realized what her son had done, she could not help but burst into laughter.
While laughing, she walked towards Joy and hugged her son and kissed him. “Hahaha… son, you’re so cute! Do you want to fight back? Come, mom will help you.”
When Joy heard that Zhao Youlin wanted to help him, he immediately cheered up and complained, “Mom, dad bullied me!”
Mu Tingfeng was speechless. Your mom also bullied me just now.
“Yeah, I will help you teach him a lesson,” Zhao Youlin replied happily while secretly praising him in her heart. This little brat is really getting better at complaining.
Mu Tingfeng was speechless.
Therefore, the snow-viewing event suddenly turned into a snowman activity and then a very magical snowball throwing battle.
This time, Zhao Youlin and Joy stood together, while Mu Tingfeng was pitifully reduced to cannon fodder.
Mu Tingfeng was at an absolute disadvantage.
Although it was impossible for him to lose with his fighting strength, the two “enemies” five meters away from him were his son and his pregnant wife. No matter which one, he could not bear to exert force into his throws. Under such circumstances, Mu Tingfeng’s fate could be said to be tragic.
On the other side, Zhao Youlin was squatting down, holding snowballs and handing them to the slow-moving Joy. She asked him to throw them one by one, and occasionally she would throw one or two snowballs to cheer him on.
Joy also threw the snowballs with great joy. Although with his lacking size and strength, most of the snowballs could not hit Mu Tingfeng. He still played with them until he giggled, occasionally, Mu Tingfeng deliberately threw one or two snowballs that deviated from the trajectory, so it was impossible for them to hit him. He was so scared that he cried out. After dodging and dodging, he would continue to throw the snowballs. He was having a great time.
What should have been a particularly boring matter became interesting because the person who was playing with them was the other party. The huge courtyard was filled with laughter and laughter. Just by looking at it, people could not help but feel happy and warm for them.
The three of them only had eyes for each other. They did not notice that the servants in the house had stopped their work at some point in time and were collectively looking at them.
Seeing the wanton laughter from the few of them, they could not help but reveal a kind smile.
Alice stood at the edge of the walkway and saw that the curve of the corners of their lips could not be restrained. Suddenly, a low cough came from behind her.
Alice turned her head and saw the butler standing behind her, staring at her with a serious face. The hair on her back immediately stood on end. Other than the former master and his son, the person she was most afraid of was the butler!
Although the butler did not look fierce to Alice, or more accurately, he was a very gentle elder, Alice could not help but be afraid of him. If she had to describe the person in front of her with one word, it would definitely be a smiling tiger!
“Er… uncle… Uncle Zhao, why are you here? Is… is there something wrong?”
The butler glanced at Alice calmly and asked casually, “Alice, you’ve been in the Mu family for quite a while, haven’t you?”
Alice couldn’t figure out what the butler wanted to say and could only laugh, “Yes… Yes, it’s been a year without me noticing.”
“What have you learned in this year?”
The butler’s tone was still indifferent, but Alice instinctively sensed the danger. She quickly stood up straight. With a serious expression, she said, “After coming to the Zhao family, I learned a lot of things and made a lot of friends. Everyone… including Uncle Zhao, you have taken care of me very well. I am very grateful, very…”
“Don’t play this game with me.” Before Alice could finish, the butler had already interrupted her. He snorted and said, “Do you still remember what I told you when you first got here?”
Alice seemed to have suddenly remembered something and shivered. She stammered timidly, “I… I remember.”
“You remember? What did I tell you at that time?”
“You said… you said that after entering through the Mu family’s gate, you must serve the master well. You must not harbor any disloyalty to the master. You must be respectful to the master, not rude to them, not talk back to them, and not display violence. You must do your job well and not complain or speak ill of the master willfully.”
“Then do you think you’ve done all this today?”
Alice had a mournful look on her face as she said weakly, “… No.”
“Today, you cursed those two relatives of the Mu family in front of so many people. If it weren’t for your Uncle Ye holding you back, you would have almost gotten rough with them. Have you realized your mistake?”
“They were the first ones…” Alice was a little unconvinced and wanted to defend herself. However, under the butler’s stern gaze, she forcefully held back and said helplessly, “I’ve realized my mistake.”
“You should be punished for doing something wrong,” the butler said with a straight face. Alice’s head sunk even lower.
Just when she thought she was going to be in big trouble, she heard the butler cough again and said in a low voice, “But…”
“Huh?” The sudden turn of events made Alice a little confused. She looked up at the butler with some confusion.
“However, since you were standing up for the Young Madam and Young Master Joy this time, the former master did not say anything. It was an offense, but at the same time, it made up for itself. This time, we can let it slide. However, there can not be a next time.”
Alice was stunned. She thought that it was over for her. She did not expect that at the last moment, things would turn out as expected. It was really a pleasant surprise!
“Yes, yes, yes. I swear, there will not be a next time, definitely!”
The butler glanced at her. He did not seem to believe her words. “Anyway, I have already said what needs to be said. You can do as you see fit. This time, you were lucky. If it had been any other Mu family members, no one would be able to protect you!”
