The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

Cheng Youning didn't want to see Hong Yunrang look embarrassed, so he touched the jade pendant on his waist and said, "Here, I'll give it to you. It has a good meaning."

Hong Yuncong said: "No, I have many jade pendants."

Cheng Youning suddenly saw the cricket jar on Hong Yuncong's waist, and then an idea came to her mind, "How about I give you a cricket?"

Hong Yuncong's eyes lit up: "You brought crickets?"

Cheng Youning nodded.

Hong Yuncong took out the cricket jar from his waist and said, "Let's see whose crickets are the best."

"Okay, my cricket is one in a hundred." Cheng Youning said confidently.

"My cricket is always victorious in every battle." Hong Yuncong showed no sign of weakness.

So several people lay on the ground and started fighting crickets.

At this time, Hong Jiutong's maid Jingjing ran back to tell Hong Jiutong, "Miss, Miss, your little husband is lying on the ground fighting crickets with our young master, and he is accompanied by our eldest son. Miss, do you want to go and see for yourself and get up close and personal with your future little husband?"

Hong Jiutong's tears rolled in her eyes, and she couldn't swallow them no matter what. She had just seen this person, a six-year-old kid, an age that didn't know anything, and would only lie on the ground fighting crickets.

"I'm not going." Hong Jiutong's voice was choked with sobs.

"Miss, why don't you go and take a look? See if this young master of the Wan family is smart or stupid."

Hong Jiutong said: "Between intelligence and stupidity, do I have any other choice?"

The maid said quietly: "Miss, don't be too sad. The man you want is a fool. Miss, just regret the engagement."

Hong Jiutong said nervously, "Keep your voice down. There are so many people from the Wan family here today. If they hear us, our Hong family will be finished."

Jingjing lowered her voice and said nervously, "Miss, is it as serious as you say? I think the Wan family is very polite, not unreasonable."

Hong Jiutong said: "What status does the Wan family have now? Do they need to reason with others? Don't you see that my father, who has always been upright, is now trying to curry favor with the Wan family?"

Jingjing said, "That's right. They are going to send the eldest son to the Marquis again. What does our master think?"

Hong Jiutong said: "It's all for my brother's future, so as long as the Wan family doesn't back out of this marriage, our Hong family won't back out. It's not easy for our Hong family to marry into the Wan family. In the eyes of my parents, they are particularly satisfied with this marriage, and they also hope that I can help the Hong family after I marry into the family."

Jingjing said: "But the lady is not satisfied."

"It's my parents' orders and the matchmaker's words. I'm a girl, so how can I have a say? What right do I have to say whether I like it or not, whether I'm satisfied or not? I can only let them arrange it. If I can help the Hong family in the future, it won't be in vain that their parents gave birth to me as a daughter." Hong Jiutong couldn't hold back her tears and fell.

Jingjing said, "Young lady is now of marriageable age, and it is a good age for her to get married. The young master of the Wan family is only six years old, and he is still playing on the ground. When will he grow up? If you wait another ten years, you will be so old. You have turned me into an old maid. Jingjing is really worried about me!"

After a while, Jingjing ran out again to secretly observe Cheng Youning, but she came back soon, "Miss, something bad has happened, the young master is crying?"

"Whose little master is crying?"

Jingjing said: "Of course it was our little master who was crying."

Hong Jiutong's tense face relaxed a lot at once. She thought Cheng Youning was made to cry by his brother Hong Yuncong. If that was the case, it would be troublesome. "Why is he crying?"

Jingjing said: "It's all because of the young master of the Wan family."

Hong Jiutong asked: "Aren't you lying on the ground and playing happily?"

Jingjing said, "It was all good at the beginning, but the young master's beloved cricket was bitten to death by the cricket of the young master of the Wan family."

Hong Jiutong said: "There are winners and losers in cricket fighting. Today, a distinguished guest has come to our house. Go and comfort him, tell him to stop crying, and ask him to catch another one."

Jingjing said, "Why are you still trying to comfort her? She's already making a scene in the hall."

Hong Jiutong's face turned a little grim when he heard this. "Then go and listen. Daddy won't punish your brother, will he?"

After listening quietly, he ran away again.

The people in the hall were drinking tea and talking when a few children rushed in. The one leading them was Hong Yuncong. He was the first to rush in, crying as he ran towards Wan Lianxing, "My Lord, your grandson bit my cricket to death."

At this time, Hong Zhekai shouted sternly: "Cong'er, everyone is talking to the Marquis, what are you doing here, get out now."

How could Hong Yuncong agree to this? His IQ was not very high to begin with, and now that he had suffered a loss, he was even more unwilling to obey discipline. He opened his cricket jar and showed it to his father and Wan Lianxing, "Look, my crickets are a rare and good variety, and they were bitten to death by Cheng Youning's crickets in just a few bites."

Cheng Youning and Qiao Rong stood aside in silence. They knew that it was impossible to reason with this abnormal Hong Yuncong, so they didn't even say a word.

Wan Lianxing glanced at the cricket jar that Hong Yuncong held out to him, "Oh, it's really bitten to death, Cheng Youning, how could you let your crickets be scared to death."

Cheng Youning felt aggrieved: "My cricket was too brave. It wouldn't let go once it bit me. Besides, before the cricket fight, he said his cricket was always victorious, so I believed him. I didn't know his cricket was so weak. It was bitten to death in a few bites. As a result, he started crying non-stop after he lost."

Hong Yunrang said: "This is not brother Youning's fault, it's Yuncong who can't stand losing, so he cries when he loses."

Hong Yuncong retorted: "No, I have defeated good crickets before and have always been invincible."

Wan Lianxing had heard from Ge Dongqing in the past that the youngest son of the Hong family was almost in trouble. Now that the case had been brought to him, it seemed that he had to administer justice and could no longer "favor" Cheng Youning.

"Cheng Youning, I think this is all your fault for not taking good care of your cricket. Since your cricket killed the cricket of the little princess of the Hong family, you should compensate her with a better one."

Cheng Youning looked at Wan Lianxing, and after staring at each other for a few seconds, Cheng Youning chose to compromise. There was no point in arguing. He stretched out his hand, and Qiao Rong handed him a cricket jar. He handed it to Hong Yuncong and said, "This one is also very powerful. I'll give you this one as compensation."

After Hong Yuncong opened the cricket jar and took a look, he burst into tears again, "This is not the one that killed my cricket."

Cheng Youning said, "I didn't promise you that I would bite your cricket to death."

Hong Yuncong said: "I don't want this one. I want to bite the one that killed my cricket."

Cheng Youning explained: "This one is also much more powerful than the one that died."

Hong Yuncong shook his head and said he would do nothing.
