Chapter 185 Feeling Uncomfortable All Over

Even his maternal grandfather didn't stand by his side, and Chen Fangyang, with a resentful face, was pushed aside.

When Shen Xuewei returned from the restroom, she glanced at him sideways and even wanted to stomp on his foot, but Chen Fangyang, who had anticipated this, dodged it.

The TV stayed on until 10:30 before finally being turned off, and Shen Xuewei was finally able to put down her homework and go back to sleep.

The next morning, when Shen Xuewei woke up, she opened the door to find Chen Fangyang grinning and waiting outside her room.

The thought of that stack of test papers and workbooks that she didn't know how long it would take to finish made Shen Xuewei instantly angry, and she didn't want to talk to Chen Fangyang at all.

She acted as if she hadn't seen Chen Fangyang, and lifted her foot to continue walking.

Chen Fang raised his hand and held up a red banknote in front of Shen Xuewei.

Shen Xuewei smirked, her eyes showing disdain, and then... the banknotes blocking her way changed from one to ten, and she also put on a gold bracelet.

The goods have already been purchased, and the matter is settled. Who would turn down money?

Under Chen Fangyang's generous financial offensive, the uncle-nephew relationship between the two not only returned to normal but also reached a new level.

Chen Fangyang stayed at home for several days, and Chu Fu also specially brought Chen Fangli and Chu De'an back to stay for two days.

With Chen Fangqiu having been at home for the past few days, the house has become much livelier.

Aside from the Lunar New Year, it's rare for the Chen family to have so many people together.

As a result, the elderly couple has had smiles on their faces almost constantly these past few days.

After the Chu family and Chen Fangli returned, Chen Fangqiu, having probably borrowed money from someone, also rode away on her motorcycle.

After they returned, the Chen family became much quieter.

After a brief moment of disappointment, Grandpa Chen and Grandma Xi went back to doing their own things.

Shen Xuewei was writing her assignment with a pained expression, while Chen Fangyang was in his room, sleeping in with a cool and carefree attitude.

At dinner that evening, Shen Xuewei, who had just finished her homework, looked exhausted; while Chen Fangyang, though unkempt, was full of energy and radiant, creating a stark contrast with Shen Xuewei.

but……

“Ah Yang, it’s good that you’re back. We have a car. Tomorrow is the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, which is market day. Your dad and I were thinking of taking some things to the market to sell and earn some money. You can take your dad, me, and Weiwei to the market tomorrow and sell things with us.”

Shen Xuewei, who was eating with her head down, suddenly perked up, looked up, and smiled happily at Chen Fangyang.

Chen Fangyang's face stiffened, and he could no longer smile.

"Mom, we shouldn't be short of money at home, so we don't need to sell things anymore, right?"

Grandma Xi looked disapproving. "Just because we don't need money doesn't mean we don't need to earn it! You and your third sister have teamed up to make your father and me work so much less land. Are we just going to stay home all day with nothing to do? Shouldn't we do something else?"

"You can't expect your dad and me to just stay at home and do nothing all day long, can you?"

"Don't always think that just because Fang'er is supporting you and you have no worries about food and clothing, you don't need to earn money. In any case, you still need to rely on yourself to some extent, and not depend on others for everything..."

Grandma Xi's ability to talk about people was something everyone could see.

Chen Fangyang looked pained by her words and couldn't get a word in edgewise.

When Grandma Xi finally stopped and looked at him, Chen Fangyang nodded helplessly with a dejected expression.

"Okay, okay, I'll go with you. I'll do whatever you say, alright?"

He knew that if he stayed at home for too long, nothing good would happen.

Grandma Xi smiled with relief at first, then remembered his past offenses and warned him:

"You promised, but you're not allowed to drive away secretly! If you dare to run away today, you'll never come back."

Chen Fangyang, who did indeed have this plan in mind, twitched at the corner of his mouth and made a promise to her.

"Mom, those things happened several years ago. I haven't done anything like that in recent years. If you don't believe me, ask Weiwei."

Shen Xuewei looked up at him, but gave an innocent smile.

"I don't know either. Maybe I do, maybe I don't. I can't remember."

"Hey, you little Wei..."

Shen Xuewei tugged at Grandma Xi's sleeve, leaned against her leg, and accused Chen Fangyang.

"Grandma, look at Second Uncle, he's so fierce..."

Grandma Xi slapped Chen Fangyang in displeasure, "Speak properly, don't bully Weiwei."

Seeing Chen Fangyang's setback, Shen Xuewei finally cheered up and started working on the pile of exercise books and test papers that Chen Fangyang had bought, no longer feeling miserable.

The next morning, before Shen Xuewei and Chen Fangyang had even gotten out of bed, the elderly couple got up very early, packed their things early, and even cooked breakfast before going upstairs to knock on the door and wake the two up.

Shen Xuewei responded and, after hearing the footsteps fade into the distance, got out of bed.

After folding the blankets, she opened the door and came down from the second floor.

As I passed by Chen Fangyang's room, he hadn't gotten up yet, and Grandma Xi was still knocking on the door.

After brushing her teeth and washing her face, and applying some sunscreen, Chen Fangyang, yawning, with a tear still hanging from the corner of his eye and his hair a mess, finally came down from the second floor.

He glanced at the newly brightened sky outside, then at the watch on the back of his hand, and let out a wail.

"Mom, it's not even seven o'clock yet, is it really necessary to get up so early and go so fast?"

Grandma Xi squeezed the toothpaste into his hand and then stood on tiptoe to press down his sticking-out hair.

"If you don't go early, how will you get a good seat? Going at this time is already considered late; any later and there won't be any seats left. Go brush your teeth and eat breakfast."

Chen Fangyang sighed as Grandma Xi pushed him to brush his teeth.

After brushing his teeth and washing his face, he was urged by his grandmother to drink a couple of mouthfuls of porridge. He then wanted to go upstairs to fix his hair and face before setting off.

However, Grandma Xi and Grandpa Chen couldn't wait any longer.

Seeing that he was dawdling, Grandma Xi stopped arguing with him and pulled Grandpa Chen over directly.

Grandpa Chen shoved the object in front of him, staring at him with a stern face.

"What else is there to do? We're just waiting for you to open the car door so we can load the stuff onto the vehicle."

Chen Fangyang shrank his neck and replied, "I won't bother anymore. I'll open the door for you right now. I'll help you with whatever you want to put up."

He grabbed his car keys and quickly went outside to open the car door and trunk.

Grandpa Chen kept stuffing all sorts of things into the car, and when he saw that there were even several chickens, his eyes twitched even more violently.

"Mom and Dad, we've taken all these chickens to sell. What will we eat then?"

Grandma Xi smiled broadly when this was mentioned.

"It's alright. A lot of chicks have hatched at home in the past few months, and they'll be big enough to eat in a few months. I've also bought some ducklings, and they're being raised on the hill behind our old house."

"Don't worry, when you come back for the New Year, there will be no shortage of chickens and ducks to eat. The ones we're selling now are the ones we raised before."

After her access to farmland was restricted, she became enthusiastic about raising chickens and ducks, while her maternal grandfather was enthusiastic about raising pigs.

Otherwise, after finishing the work in the fields, I would stay at home with nothing to do and always feel itchy, both physically and mentally, and would feel uncomfortable all over.
