The next day, as the sun rose, Chu Fang and his family of three prepared to leave.
The eldest uncle and aunt saw the three off. Chu's father turned around and said, "Eldest son, that's enough. Yongquan also has a house in Shanghai. If you don't feel comfortable living in Chengdu, you can move to Shanghai."
"Then let's leave it at that." The uncle stopped being coy.
Qian Liyan said to Chu Fang, "Xiao Fang, you should tell Yiyi to find a boyfriend as soon as possible. It's not right for her to be single all the time. The entertainment industry is such a mixed bag, it would be good to have someone to rely on."
Chu Fang nodded: "Understood."
Then Chu Fang and his family of three left.
It was already 1 p.m. when I got back home in Shanghai.
Upon seeing Chu Fang and his two companions, the family's housekeeper rushed over.
"Mr. Chu, you're finally back."
Chu Fang smiled and said, "My parents will be staying here this time, so please tidy up the house."
"It's been cleaned up a long time ago."
Thank you.
Leaving her hometown, Chu's mother was still reluctant to leave. Fortunately, Aunt Li had made preparations in advance and took out a kite from the house. Chu's mother immediately abandoned her hometown and began to play with the kite.
Aunt Li has already figured out that Chu's mother has a childlike mentality.
Seeing Chu's mother shouting and yelling, Aunt Li couldn't help but feel a sense of disappointment.
Aunt Li is a little younger than Chu's mother, and she is still working for others and busy all day long; while Chu's mother plays all day long, and their lives are worlds apart.
The fact that Chu's mother can maintain such a good mindset shows that she has never experienced any major storms, a state that countless people dream of.
Seeing that his mother's mood had improved, Chu Fang breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at his father: "Dad..."
"I'm going to see some old friends." With his hands behind his back, Mr. Chu slowly left the villa.
Chu's father also made several friends in the area.
After arranging everything, it was almost 3 p.m.
Chu Fang drove to pick up his two children from school and happened to run into Xu Yuexin at the kindergarten gate.
"Mr. Chu," Xu Yuexin said as she approached, "It's been a long time."
"I stayed in my hometown for a while," Chu Fang replied. "My wife is a rather aloof person, please don't mind her."
During the time he was away from Shanghai, Zhong Tingyue was the one who picked up and dropped off the children. Sometimes when he ran into Xu Yuexin, Zhong Tingyue treated him coldly.
"It's nothing," Xu Yuexin waved her hand. "Your wife is very beautiful."
These words came from Xu Yuexin's heart.
Zhong Tingyue was the most beautiful woman she had ever seen, without exception.
Not only is she outstanding in appearance, but she still maintains her charm even after turning thirty; moreover, Zhong Tingyue exudes an extraordinary temperament. Xu Yuexin considers herself to have a bit of a noblewoman's temperament, but compared with Zhong Tingyue, she is inferior.
Moreover, she learned from her son that at home, Chu Fang was in charge of internal affairs while Zhong Tingyue was in charge of external affairs, which made Zhong Tingyue even more charming in her eyes.
"Thank you," Chu Fang replied with a smile.
The two chatted idly as the school bell rang, signaling the end of kindergarten and the children slowly walking out.
Upon seeing Chu Fang, Chu Jin immediately ran over at lightning speed, her voice drawn out as she called out, "Father~~~"
She threw herself into Chu Fang's arms, tilted her head back, and looked at him: "Dad, I missed you so much."
"I miss you too." Chu Fang combed her daughter's hair.
"To what extent?"
Chu Jin tilted her head and replied, "These days, I've been constantly thinking about you. As I think about you, you turn into a deep-fried chicken leg."
At this point, Chu Jin swallowed hard.
Chu Fang: "..."
So they're treating me like a chicken leg.
However, this does reflect Chu Yi's longing for Chu Fang.
For a foodie, this is the highest praise.
Chu Zhiye slowly walked over: "Dad."
Shao Xiang bowed and said, "Father-in-law, it's been a long time. Your son-in-law greets you."
Chu Jin stood in front of Shao Xiang, hands on her hips: "I've said it countless times, I don't like you."
“But I like you,” Shao Xiang said. “Chu Jin, please give me a chance. I really like you, I like playing with you, and I want to be with you, watching every sunrise and sunset, walking through every street and alley…”
Before he could finish speaking, Xu Yuexin quickly covered Shao Xiang's mouth and smiled awkwardly at Chu Fang.
Chu did not react much to this.
Kids are just kids, they don't understand things, that's normal.
Back when Chu Fang was a child, he had three wives and four concubines, lovers and sweethearts. He would have to pay respects to heaven and earth and enter the bridal chamber several times a day.
"Alas, time never returns," Chu Fang lamented inwardly. "How did I end up so hopelessly infatuated with Zhong Tingyue?"
After picking up the two children, Chu Fang took them home.
As soon as I got home, I saw Gao Ruoyun and Chu's mother arguing.
"If you don't know how to eat houttuynia cordata, then don't talk. It makes you look low-class. Houttuynia cordata is so delicious. Cold pig's head salad is a delicacy. Do you Central Plains people understand such a delicacy?" Mother Chu said, hands on her hips.
Gao Ruoyun curled her lips: "Oh dear, you people from Chengdu just love to eat these strange and unusual foods, like you're savages."
The two mothers-in-law launched attacks on each other, focusing on the delicacies of their respective provincial capitals, and neither gave an inch.
"My dear, tell me, isn't houttuynia cordata delicious?" Chu's mother asked.
Gao Ruoyun also looked at Chu Fang.
Chu Fang: "..."
How should I put it?
He shoved his daughter, saying, "Chu Jin is the most qualified to speak on this matter. You should ask her."
After saying that, he hurried to the vegetable garden, not wanting to get involved in the argument between the two, otherwise he would become cannon fodder.
The two looked at Chu Jin, who touched her stomach and said, "Grandma, Granny Wei, I'm hungry."
Upon hearing this, the two of them couldn't bear it and quickly went into the kitchen to cook for Chu Jin.
... ...
Chu Fang arrived at the vegetable garden and looked at the vegetables he had planted. He hadn't been home these past few days, but the housekeeper had been taking care of them, and they were growing quite well.
"Mr. Chu, why do you like growing vegetables?" Zhong Tingyue stood to the side with her arms crossed.
“I not only enjoy growing vegetables, but I also enjoy cooking.” Chu Fang raised an eyebrow.
"Are you sure you can do it?"
"A man can't say no!"
"Tch~~~"
