Chapter 25 Good Looking

Chapter 25 Good Looking

When Wang Fang entered the house, the family members had varying reactions. Wang Gang's reaction was the most exaggerated. He frowned at Wang Fang, looking her up and down before whispering to Liu Meilan, "What are you wearing? Are you afraid others won't know her husband is dead?"

Liu Meilan slapped the back of Wang Gang's hand in an angry tone. On the surface, she wanted to stop Wang Gang from saying these things, but in her heart she really liked to hear them.

Anyway, the worse the relationship between the two siblings, the more she can take action and the more she dares to speak.

"Does your sister need to ask you before she wears anything?"

Wang Yuxiu was sitting nearby. When he heard Wang Gang's words, he turned around and glared at him.

Wang Gang immediately laughed and said, "No, no, I was just saying, wearing a skirt in this cold weather will freeze your knees."

"I won't care how much you quarrel or make a fuss," Wang Yuxiu warned Wang Gang sternly. "But there's just one thing: don't cross the line."

After Wang Yuxiu finished speaking, he stared at Wang Gang. Wang Gang was originally smiling playfully, but when he saw his father's expression, he didn't dare to be arrogant anymore and slowly retracted the corner of his mouth.

Wang Yuxiu stared at him and finally said, "Your brother-in-law is the bottom line!"

Wang Gang paused for a moment, then nodded quickly. He glanced at Liu Meilan awkwardly, but Liu Meilan pretended not to notice what had just happened and headed for the kitchen. "Mom, I'm going to go make dumplings."

"Cook it." Xie Mei stood up from the sofa and saw Wang Fang watching Wang Gang being scolded with great interest. Her big red lips were red, and her eyes were purple, as if she had been beaten.

Xie Mei passed by the three of them, glanced at Wang Gang, and said, "It's your turn!"

Then he looked at Wang Fang, still dissatisfied, and said, "Wash your face quickly."

Xin Tianyi watched Wang Fang wash her face with a smile, and finally understood how his unkempt and freedom-loving ideas were formed in his previous life.

In her daily life, she was used to seeing her mother wearing heavy makeup, high heels and short skirts all day long, so Xin Tianyi had the urge to rebel against it. To the point that in her previous life, she had never bought a lipstick or a pair of high heels.

But now looking at Wang Fang, she lived so freely, never afraid of what others said. What was the difference between her and her previous life?

It's just a slight difference in appearance.

"What are you looking at me for?" Wang Fang asked Xin Tianyi with a smile, "Go, go, get me a thermos. Your grandma told me to wash my face!"

Upon hearing this, Xin Tianyi went to the kitchen to get a thermos, and stood in front of the washbasin rack to pour hot water on Wang Fang. Wang Fang said, "Just put it on the ground. I need it later."

Xin Tianyi didn't leave, but stood aside and watched her mother wash her face.

Wang Fang is 42 years old this year and looks younger than most people of her age.

Because she is very beautiful, this age has a different flavor. She is keen on dressing up, wearing whatever clothes are fashionable and getting whatever hairstyle is fashionable. She is on the road of beauty every day of the year.

But only Xin Tianyi knew that her mother was not like this originally.

In Xin Tianyi's memory, Wang Fang has always been a beautiful but simple mother.

She always wore the work clothes of the cotton mill, with a pair of black leather shoes on her feet that were polished very clean. Her hairstyle was also the simplest, with no jewelry on her body.

She dressed simply and smiled simply at that time. In the small family she and Xin Ziqian had formed, she lived a leisurely life of her own.

All the changes happened after Xin Ziqian passed away.

When everyone thought that Wang Fang would never recover, shed tears forever, and have a sign with the word "miserable life" engraved on her body, she was silent for a month, put on heavy makeup, high heels, and walked out of the house.

In his previous life, Xin Tianyi hated Wang Fang like this.

She didn't understand why Wang Fang should be happy when her father was gone.

She went to work as usual, lived her life as usual, chatted and laughed with neighbors as usual, and occasionally cared about Xin Tianyi's grades as usual.

Her living conditions are exactly the same as when Xin Ziqian was alive, and even better than then.

She learned how to dress, how to put on makeup, where to get the most fashionable hairstyles, and what color lipstick is most suitable...

At that time, Xin Tianyi transferred all the pain of losing his father to Wang Fang.

She felt that Wang Fang shouldn't be like this, she should...

Xin Tianyi looked at Wang Fang who had washed her face and changed the basin of water, and silently sneered at his own thoughts in his previous life.

What should we do?

Spend the rest of your life in misery?

Will the days that follow be spent in the memory of Xin Ziqian?

"Give me some more hot water." Wang Fang suddenly said, "The water is not hot enough."

Xin Tianyi quickly picked up the thermos and added hot water to Wang Fang, then watched her soak the towel in the hot water, waited until the towel was completely soaked, took it out and wrung it half dry, and finally spread it directly on her face.

"It's so comfortable!" Wang Fang said to herself.

When she took off the towel, Xin Tianyi was holding a thermos and looking at her with a smile, "Mom, do you want more?"

Wang Fang shook her head. "No. I tell you, when you're tired, you can also use a hot towel to warm your face. It's very comfortable."

"Okay." Xin Tianyi responded.

Wang Fang looked at Xin Tianyi in surprise. This child has been different since he moved to his grandmother's house.

In the past, no matter what I said, she would go against me.

Now every word is good.

Wang Fang was a little surprised and asked Xin Tianyi, "What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing serious." Xin Tianyi said.

Wang Fang smiled and frowned, "I have to change my clothes quickly, or your grandpa will be angry soon."

Xin Tianyi stood aside and said, "No need to change, I think it looks good. And today is New Year's Eve, and our family tradition is that we don't quarrel or hit children on New Year's Eve!"

"Hahaha." Wang Fang laughed out loud, her eyes brightening as she looked at Xin Tianyi: "Is it really beautiful?"

"real."

"It takes me a long time to wash my face."

Xie Mei came out of the kitchen, holding dumplings. She glanced at Wang Fang and said, "Hurry up, it's already on the table. Why don't you eat it?"

"Okay, let's eat!" Wang Fang hurried to the dining table.

The whole family sat down and dumplings with two kinds of fillings were served.

Liu Meilan deliberately placed the leek dumplings with veins showing in front of Wang Fang, and added: "Sister, these are your favorite leek and egg dumplings, specially made for you."

Wang Fang was very surprised and asked, "And they packed it specially for me?"

She couldn't believe Liu Meilan would be so kind, and she said, "Thank you, you've worked so hard. I'll wash the dishes after dinner tonight, so don't bother to grab them."

Liu Meilan also smiled and thought to herself, what's there to be afraid of washing dishes? As long as you pay me, I can wash them every day.

The words were on the tip of his tongue, but he forced himself not to say them. Seeing that everyone was half full, he took out the note from his pocket.
