Xie Jian heard the anger in the other's tone, didn't argue with him, nodded and was about to go to work.
"How does it feel to split from the family? Do you feel like a headless fly, not knowing what to do?"
Xie Jian glanced at him, with an expression of pity and disdain in his eyes, which made Xie Guo feel blocked in his heart.
"Splitting the family is pretty good."
"Isn't it better to eat and live together with parents and brothers? Now that you've split out, there's one less person in the Xie Family, it's not lively even when we eat."
"It wasn't lively before either."
Xie Jian was indifferent, speaking three sentences without getting a reply, Xie Guo didn't want to upset himself, so he walked away with his sickle.
Back to work, Xie Jian was full of energy, working more swiftly, finishing a row by noon. In the middle of the day, Jiang Lai came with a basket to deliver lunch, and Xie Jian stared at her from a distance.
