Chapter 30 My Mom Likes
"Meet us?"
Xie Mei was so surprised that she didn't know how to respond. She was originally worried about Wang Fang's matter, but at this moment, she suddenly smiled.
Her eyebrows and eyes were curved, and she stretched out her right hand to stroke Xin Tianyi's hair.
It wasn't until the short hair danced in her palm that Xie Mei felt a sense of reality.
I don’t know why, but at that moment, Xie Mei suddenly felt very unfamiliar.
It seemed as if he didn't recognize Xin Tianyi in front of him.
"Silly child, aren't we together?" Xie Mei smiled and said, "And we see each other every day, right?"
"Yes." Xin Tianyi looked up at Xie Mei.
As the two were talking, there was a rustling sound in the yard outside.
Xie Mei then said, "What is your grandpa doing? Let's go and see."
Xin Tianyi stood up, supported Xie Mei, and walked into the yard together.
Wang Yuxiu was dragging two woven bags with great effort.
"What are you doing?" Xie Mei asked.
"It can't be left in the yard," Wang Yuxiu said. "I'll put it in the storage room for her."
A small storage room was built in the yard to store coal briquettes and other items in winter.
At the beginning of spring, the coal briquettes were almost all used up, so Wang Yuxiu just happened to put these woven bags in.
"Grandpa, let me help you." Xin Tianyi hurried over to help.
Wang Yuxiu said, "I don't know how your mother managed to pull it back. It's so heavy and so much."
Xin Tianyi was carrying a woven bag, which was indeed very heavy. She held it with both hands, but the bag kept falling down.
Wang Fang was brought from the far south, so far away.
Xin Tianyi and Wang Yuxiu were dragging bags to the storage room when Wang Gang and Liu Meilan came back.
Wang Gang was very surprised when he saw it and asked quickly, "What is this for?"
"Your sister imported the goods," Xie Mei said quickly. "Go and help your father."
"So many!" Wang Gang asked, "Can we sell them all?"
"Why can't they sell out?" Xie Mei was very protective of Wang Fang at this time. "You're the only one who talks too much. Why don't you go and help!"
With Wang Gang, the woven bags were quickly stuffed into the storage room. After a while, he emerged, walked over to Liu Meilan, and whispered, "I opened them and took a look. They were all women's leather shoes. Judging by the leather, they were quite expensive."
"Really?" Liu Meilan curled her lips. "Anyway, whether it's cheap or expensive, I can't afford it."
"My sister is selling shoes, why do you still need to spend money to buy them?" Wang Gang nudged Liu Meilan with his shoulder and raised an eyebrow, "What are you thinking!"
Xie Mei heard this from the side. Without looking at Liu Meilan, she said to Wang Gang, "Don't touch your sister's shoes. This isn't her business; it belongs to her friends as well. Don't embarrass your sister or cause her any trouble."
Wang Gang rolled his eyes: "Okay, got it!"
Wang Fang left and did not come back at night. She did not return home until midnight the next day.
Xin Tianyi heard the noise, sat up from the bed, turned on the desk lamp, and saw Wang Fang standing at the door, looking at her apologetically.
"Did I wake you up?" Wang Fang whispered as she walked in and closed the door quietly.
"No. I just lay down too."
"Why are you sleeping so late?" Wang Fang walked to the bed and found her pajamas first.
"I took a nap at noon. I don't usually sleep, so I couldn't sleep at night."
Xin Tianyi watched Wang Fang change her clothes. The clothes she took off were covered with dirty paint spots.
"Mom, I'll go get you a glass of water." Xin Tianyi got off the bed.
"No need." Wang Fang quickly stopped him, "Don't wake up your grandma and grandpa. I see there's some in your cup. I'll just drink a little."
While Wang Fang was talking, she had already changed her clothes. She walked to the desk and picked up Xin Tianyi's water cup.
Wang Fang picked up the cup of water and just put it to her lips when she suddenly stopped.
She looked at Xin Tianyi and asked, "Do you mind?"
Xin Tianyi smiled: "Of course."
Wang Fang then said, "Your Aunt Hong said that kids nowadays are so nosy, demanding independence and respect. Especially at your age, you're in your rebellious phase. They have to ask about everything. Otherwise, they'll say they don't respect you."
Wang Fang had already gulped down all the water while she spoke. She wiped her mouth with the back of her hand and waved to Xin Tianyi, "Go to sleep quickly. You have to get up early tomorrow."
Xin Tianyi nodded: "You lie down first, I'll turn off the lights."
After Wang Fang lay down on her side, Xin Tianyi turned off the desk lamp.
After turning off the lights, Xin Tianyi wanted to ask Wang Fang if she was renovating the shoe store. Before he could open his mouth, he heard snoring coming from Wang Fang's direction.
She has fallen asleep.
Xin Tianyi turned his head to look at Wang Fang and pulled the quilt over her shoulders.
Wang Fang has a bad shoulder and it hurts when it gets cold.
Xin Tianyi didn't know when he fell asleep. He lay on the side, listening to Wang Fang's snoring gradually turning into gurgling. Xin Tianyi knew that Wang Fang was really exhausted these days.
She thought about a lot of things again. Every single thing flashed through her mind and came back again, like a movie, but she couldn't catch it.
It was not until the movies changed from color to black and white that Xin Tianyi finally fell asleep.
When she woke up, Wang Fang was gone.
It was only when Xie Mei saw the clothes drying in the yard that she realized Wang Fang had returned.
She asked Xin Tianyi, and Xin Tianyi honestly said that he didn't know what time her mother left, and he didn't know if she had time to wash the clothes.
Xie Mei's eyes were filled with heartache. As she made breakfast, she kept muttering, "Why not just put the clothes down? She'll wash them when she sees them." He came back so late, left so early, and still washed his own clothes. He didn't want to do such a good job, but was willing to work hard and cause himself trouble! He was over forty, why was he still struggling? Did he think his life was too long?
Xin Tianyi was washing up on the side, and his eyes became wet as he listened to Xie Mei's muttering.
In her previous life, she also heard Xie Mei talk a lot.
But at that time, she just felt annoyed when she heard it, and felt that her grandma was despising them and hating them.
The more Xie Mei complained, the more uncomfortable she felt. She thought her life was too hard as she was living under someone else's roof.
Listening to it again now, Xin Tianyi realized that a lot of love, the love of many people, is expressed in different ways.
The blue woven bag in the storage room, Wang Fang who always slept on her side, and Xie Mei's concern but lack of knowledge about how to help...
"Okay, stop it. You keep grumbling in front of Tianyi." Wang Yuxiu, already dressed, stood at the kitchen door to stop Xie Mei. "I'm going to the morning market. What are you buying today?"
"It's up to you to buy." Xie Mei snorted.
"Then I'll buy a chicken," Wang Yuxiu said to Xie Mei. "You soak the mushrooms."
"Okay." After Xie Mei finished speaking, she turned around and went to the cupboard to grab a handful of mushrooms and put them into the bowl.
After pouring water into the bowl, Xie Mei thought for a second, then went to the cupboard and grabbed a handful of mushrooms and put them in.
Wang Yuxiu wanted to say something, but after seeing Xie Mei's actions, he stopped talking, turned around and left with peace of mind.
Xin Tianyi was sitting at the dining table eating breakfast and could just see everything in the kitchen.
She curled her lips slightly and finished the last mouthful of porridge in the bowl.
A voice outside just then rang out: "Xin Tianyi, it's time to go to school!"
Xin Tianyi quickly got his schoolbag, put it on his back, said goodbye to Xie Mei, and rushed out.
As soon as she went out, three people were waiting for her at the entrance of the alley.
Xin Tianyi smiled as he left, and Yuan Dabao asked, "Did your grandpa go to the morning market again?"
"Well, let's go buy a chicken. We'll stew chicken with mushrooms for lunch!" Xin Tianyi said.
"Shiitake mushrooms?" Yuan Dabao frowned. "I hate shiitake mushrooms the most. Oh, that smell. You look so happy. Do you like shiitake mushrooms?"
Xin Tianyi ran out too fast and didn't tidy up his bag, so the strap circled several times behind him.
Zhang Yang was behind Xin Tian and saw it, so he reminded her, "Hey, bring your schoolbag."
"Ah?" Xin Tianyi looked behind him and quickly straightened the strap of his schoolbag. His hair gleamed in the sunlight.
"My mother likes to eat it." She said with a smile.
