Chapter 139: Don’t You Think My Sons Are Suitable for Your Daughter?
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
General Yang wanted to talk alone with Xiao Yao, so after exchanging a few pleasantries with Xiao Hongli, he called Xiao Yao to his study to talk with him.
Yang Muqing said with envy, “It’s an honor in our home to be invited by Grandpa to his study and talk with him alone. I remember Dad received this honor when he respectively became a lieutenant colonel, senior colonel and major general.” She looked at her two brothers and laughing added, “My second brother and third brother haven’t received this honor yet.”
Yang Muhua and Yang Mufeng were speechless and glared at Yang Muqing. Yang Mufeng said, “My sister, can you stop shaming your brothers when so many people are around?”
Yang Muqing curled her lips. “There are only our families and good friends here. What are you afraid of? Besides…” Yang Muqing gave a sly smile as she finished, “You’ve been shamed by me a lot already.”
Xiao Jing laughed, pointed at his two cousins and gloated. “Hey, cousins, I suggest you guys retire from the army as soon as possible. You’re busy at work all day long yet you’re just captains, while my brother is often on vacation and hang out with us, yet he’s already a lieutenant colonel and has a high salary too, even though he’s younger than you. Are you sure you chose the right job?”
Yang Muhua and his brother shot dark looks at Xiao Jing. God, how they wanted to drag out this little cousin, whom they had adored since childhood, and beat him up! Beat him so hard that even his mom and dad wouldn’t be able to recognize him!
As the youngest child of the Xiao Family, he had a cheerful personality and was very cute, so everyone loved him, and everyone would give him whatever he wanted. That was why he was not afraid of irritating his uncle and cousins at all. Seeing the Yang brothers get angry, he pointed at Yang Mukun and said, “Look at Mukun, he’s really smart. He bought some shares of Hexing Group and now he doesn’t need to work with those shares in his hand. He plays all day long and operates two small bars to earn some extra money. What a truly comfortable life! Why don’t you guys study from him and change your jobs?”

Yang Jingchao and Xiao Hongli had been chatting on the side, not paying attention to them, but upon hearing Xiao Jing’s words, Yang Jingchao looked up at Xiao Hongli and said seriously, “Why don’t you send Xiao Jing into the army? I’ll give him some good exercise.”
“Huh?” Xiao Hongli looked at his brother-in-law and asked, “Wouldn’t that bother you?”
Yang Jingchao sighed and said, “As a man, he gossips even more than women. He’s not manly at all. His mouth never stops all day long. Look at my sons. They can only surrender to his mouth.”
Hearing this, Xiao Jing shouted, “Uncle, what’s wrong with you? I have a good reason to say this and even your two sons are speechless. They know that the both of them added up aren’t as excellent as my brother, so they are too ashamed to refute me!”
Yang Jingchao glared at Xiao Jing, who shrugged as he leaned against Xiao Sa and asked him, “Sa, what do you think would be suitable for Eldest Cousin and Second Cousin if they changed careers?”
“Fu*k you.” Xiao Sa spat out two words and immediately ran away.
“Xiao Sa, we’re going to kill you!” Xiao Jing shouted.
Yang Jingchao looked at his brother-in-law with surprise and said with a frown, “How could you have educated your son into being like this?”
Xiao Hongli said calmly, “I didn’t educate him. Your sister did.”
Yang Jingchao was speechless as he gave Xiao Hongli a dark look. “That’s because you didn’t fulfil your responsibility, so my sister educated him into this. Gee, he really lacks manliness!”
Xiao Hongli: “…” Okay, it’s all my fault!
Sitting there, the Yang brothers exchanged looks and didn’t join the childish fight between Xiao Jing and Xiao Sa. Xiao Jing chased Xiao Sa around the Yang Family’s living room but failed to catch him. In the end, he collapsed on the sofa and looked breathlessly at the Yang brothers sitting on the sofa, asking, “What are you two doing here?”

“Sa didn’t offend us. Why should we help you?” retorted Yang Mufeng.
Yang Muhua nodded. “Yes, Sa said you were a sissy, not us. Why should we help you?”
Xiao Sa, standing in the middle of the hall, laughed out loud. “Well, when you were a child, Eldest Cousin and Second Cousin really wanted to…”
“Oh, my gosh!” Xiao Jing was furious. “Xiao Sa, shut up!”
“Don’t be angry, little cousin. To be honest, when you were dressed like a girl as a child, I was so attracted by you.”
Tang Xi looked at Yang Jingxian with glowing eyes. Feeling uneasy at her daughter’s stare, Yang Jingxian glanced at Xiao Sa helplessly before giving Tang Xi a smile and saying, “When I was pregnant with Jing, everyone thought he was a girl, so I bought a lot of princess dresses for him, even including those for four or five-year-old girls. But then I gave birth to a boy. It was a waste to throw these clothes away, so I dressed up your brother in them.”
“Mom! Shut up!”
Qiao Liang had been watching them fighting and quarrelling with great interest, but seeing that his girlfriend was so interested in another man’s childhood, he was immediately upset and even the air around him turned cold.
Tang Xi was not afraid of his anger at all. With shining eyes, she urged Yang Jingxian to go on. Xiao Jing hurriedly ran over to hug his mom and put his hand over her mouth to stop her from speaking, then he looked at Tang Xi and said, “Rourou, don’t listen to their nonsense. Look, look how strong and masculine I am! How could they call me a sissy?”
Tang Xi took a look at Xiao Jing seriously, clenched her fists, and said firmly, “But you are a sissy!”
“Rourou, are you still my sister?!”
Tang Xi winked while Yang Muhua laughed. “Little cousin, you know what, because Jing wore dresses for girls and had long hair when he was a child, your second cousin and I thought he was a little girl and almost fell in love with him. We were really sad when we found out he was actually a boy!”
Tang Xi’s eyes lit up. “It seems that Jing is more attractive as a girl than a boy!”
Yang Jingchao looked over at Tang Xi. Seeing that she got along well with his sons and spoke in a pleasant way, he gave a subtle smile and said to Xiao Hongli, “I like your daughter.”
Xiao Hongli also looked at Tang Xi, who happened to meet his gaze. She gave him a brilliant smile. Xiao Hongli smiled and agreed, “I like her too.”
Yang Jingchao nodded and remained quiet for a moment before making a startling remark. “Don’t you think my sons are suitable for your daughter?”
