Financial crisis, big salary cuts, fresh graduates fighting fiercely for a job paying only 1,200 yuan. Fresh graduate Chen Feng couldn't stand the gap and became a loafer at home, smoking and d...
As soon as I stepped outside, I saw two cars in the yard, and a pretty girl got out of the other car.
"Xiaofeng...is this your friend?" Liu Ping asked, somewhat surprised.
"No, she's your daughter-in-law," Chen Feng said with a grin.
Xia Yingying took several gift boxes from the passenger seat, came to Liu Ping, and said with a slightly awkward smile, "Hello, Auntie. I didn't know what you liked, so I just bought a few things."
Xia Yingying specially bought this when she went to the county town.
"Daughter-in-law?" Liu Ping was shocked upon hearing this, but then she couldn't hide her smile.
She approached Xia Yingying and grew to like her more and more. This young lady was so beautiful; where did Chen Feng find such a pretty wife?
"Alright, alright, come on in. You said you were coming, why did you even bring anything? Hahaha." Liu Ping slapped her thigh happily and quickly ushered them into the house.
Xia Yingying went inside to change her shoes, but Liu Ping let her go first. Liu Ping looked at Chen Feng from behind and asked him in a low voice, still unsure, "What's going on? Is she really my daughter-in-law?"
"Of course, I can still make you laugh." Chen Feng smiled.
"Hahaha, good, good, you little rascal, you've finally done something serious." Liu Ping was overjoyed, patted Chen Feng, and quickly took a few steps to catch up with Xia Yingying.
"Child, just put the things on the ground. I didn't know you were coming. There's not much fruit left, just some grapes. You can eat these first."
Liu Ping took a bunch of grapes out of the refrigerator and quickly went to wash them.
"No need to trouble Auntie." Xia Yingying quickly waved her hand and smiled. Liu Ping's enthusiasm eased her nervousness a little.
"It's alright, it's alright, come and eat." Liu Ping picked the grapes off the plate one by one and put them in front of Xia Yingying.
"Mom, has the food been cooked? We haven't eaten yet." Chen Feng stood next to Xia Yingying and picked up a grape as he spoke.
"The vegetables are all washed, all that's left is to cook them."
After saying that, Liu Ping glared at him and said in a low voice, "Eat less. There aren't many grapes left. You ate them all. Don't you know how to leave some for others? Go to the county town tomorrow and buy more fruit."
"No, I just ate one, how did you let me eat them all?" Chen Feng said, pointing to himself in shock.
Why did the treatment change so quickly? Before, I was the darling of the family, and I could eat all the good food first.
How come I've suddenly become the lowest-ranking person after Xia Yingying arrived?
Xia Yingying couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh when she saw this. It turned out that there was someone who could handle this guy.
"One isn't enough? If I didn't tell you, you would have eaten it all in a bit."
"I'll cook. You take her for a walk first. The food will be ready soon."
"I don't even know your name, young lady."
Liu Ping seemed to change her expression constantly. Just a moment ago she was glaring at Chen Feng, but when she looked at Xia Yingying, her face instantly became very bright.
"My name is Xia Yingying, Auntie." Xia Yingying's hands were twisted together under the table; she was still nervous.
"What a lovely name! Where are you from?" Liu Ping said, pulling up a chair to sit down and chat.
"Mom, let's cook first. Why are you nagging?" Chen Feng smiled helplessly and rubbed his forehead.
"Right, right, I'll go cook first. I was so excited I forgot about it," Liu Ping said, patting her apron as she realized her mistake.
Ever since Xia Yingying entered the house, her smile has never stopped.
"Take her for a walk and see the flowers I planted. They've grown so big now, and some of them are already in bloom." Liu Ping was worried that Xia Yingying would be bored, so she asked Chen Feng to take her for a stroll.
"OK."
Taking advantage of Liu Ping's inattention, Chen Feng picked up another grape and put it in his mouth before taking Xia Yingying out the door.
"Why are there so many people around your house?" Xia Yingying asked Chen Feng in a low voice as soon as she stepped outside. She saw several people standing outside the yard, all looking in her direction.
"Hey, isn't that how it is in the village? It's like news, especially since you drive such a nice car and are pretty. I bet the whole village will know by tonight."
"These are the village's intelligence team; they're going to show off their inside information at the store later."
Chen Feng was already used to them, smiled indifferently, and called out to the few people outside the door.
"What the hell are you looking at? You're craning your neck like a turtle. If you want to look, just be open about it. You're looking around like a thief, thinking I can't see you!"
Upon hearing this, the people outside the door looked somewhat embarrassed and gave awkward smiles.
"Fengzi, when did you get back?" the group of people asked.
"Just got back?" Chen Feng said, lighting a cigarette.
"Is this your friend?" the man asked gossipy.
"My wife, get out of here. You're all following me like stalkers." Chen Feng waved his hand, dismissing them.
Xia Yingying, standing beside him, blushed slightly upon hearing this.
"Wow, that's impressive, Fengzi. I've always known you'd amount to something. We're off then," the man said, his eyes full of admiration.
They actually wanted to watch a little longer to see if anything was going on, but Chen Feng had already chased them away, so they didn't dare to watch any longer.
As long as Chen Feng isn't really angry, things are fine. But if you really anger Chen Feng later, then things will be really bad.
"You're just as domineering in the village, aren't you?" Xia Yingying said with a sly laugh after they left.
"Hey, you guys need to stand up for yourselves. Otherwise, do you really think everyone in the village is honest and kind? The saying 'poor mountains and bad waters breed wicked people' isn't just for show."
"My current position is all earned through hard work. You think I'm joking?" Chen Feng said with considerable pride.
"Who have you slept with?" Xia Yingying asked as she followed him to the backyard.
"Old Wang's wife next door, that girl made me do it, she was screaming all over the yard. And that big fat woman, I did it with her too."
"Hey, let's not talk about the past, it's all history." Chen Feng waved his hand, acting like a hero who doesn't dwell on past glories.
"Why do you keep sleeping with other people's wives?" Xia Yingying asked with a strange smile in her eyes.
"That's because I didn't have anything to do before, so I could only do what others did." Chen Feng couldn't hold back his words after he finished speaking.
"No, can you please stop thinking such things? I'm fighting with them." He said, looking at Xia Yingying with a wry smile.
Chen Feng understood exactly what Xia Yingying meant.
"I didn't say anything else. You're just thinking the wrong thing. Why did you hit Old Wang's wife? Didn't her husband hit you?" Xia Yingying asked with a smile.
"Because I stole her chickens," Chen Feng said, casually brushing aside a flower bud.
Xia Yingying: "???"
Why does she suddenly seem confused? You hit her because you stole her chicken?
"Aren't you saying the wrong thing? You mean she stole your chickens, right?" Xia Yingying tilted her head and asked in confusion.
"No, it's just that I stole her chickens and then I beat her up," Chen Feng shrugged.
Xia Yingying: "..."
Dude, are you even being reasonable? You stole her chicken, and now you want to beat her up?
What's wrong? Didn't you get any comfort?
