Chapter 103
Shen Shun silently took note of Chen Guifeng's words and immediately went out.
Chen Guifeng watched Shen Shun leave, shook her head and sighed: "This child is not like his two brothers at all, so innocent. Maybe I spoil him too much."
Ye Fuyue smiled and said, "Chen Shun has always had someone protecting him, so his mind is simpler."
Chen Guifeng sighed again.
After a while, Shen Shun came back.
Chen Guifeng asked him, "Have you returned the money to Fan Hua?"
Shen Shun nodded: “I paid it back.”
He took out three eggs from his pocket: "Aunt Fan gave me three more eggs."
Fan's mother didn't know that Fan Hua had paid Chen Shun to buy meatballs until Chen Shun came to pay her back.
Fan's mother understood what Chen Guifeng was worried about. She did not scold Fan Hua in front of Shen Shun, but accepted the three cents and gave Shen Shun three eggs.
After all, Fan Hua ate five of the other person's meatballs. It was impossible for her to remain silent and let Fan Hua take advantage of him.
Chen Guifeng nodded with relief: "Your Aunt Fan is a reasonable person."
Chen Guifeng knew Fan's mother's personality, so she tacitly allowed Shen Shun to get close to Fan Hua. If Fan Hua's personality was similar to Liang Tianxiong's, Chen Guifeng would never agree to Shen Shun playing with such a person.
"Don't do this again in the future. Be more careful and don't let yourself end up in jail!" Chen Guifeng warned Shen Shun sternly.
Shen Shun nodded honestly: “I understand.”
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the gate.
Shen Shun ran over to open the door and shouted into the yard: “Mom, it’s Aunt Cui!”
Chen Guifeng went over and saw Cui Yongfang standing outside the courtyard gate.
Cui Yongfang smiled at Chen Guifeng and said, "My son Tianxiong smelled you making frying meatballs and clamored for some. I knew plain ones weren't good, so I thought I'd ask you to buy some for me."
Chen Guifeng smiled and said, "We don't have enough food at home, so we can't share it with your family. You can make it for Tianxiong yourself some other day."
"But I just saw Fan Hua asking Chen Shun to buy meatballs!" Cui Yongfang said.
The smile on Chen Guifeng's face faltered.
She knew that Cui Yongfang was idle all day and had no good intentions. He was gossiping about other people and had a lot of bad intentions.
"You must have read it wrong. Fan Hua didn't ask Chen Shun to buy meatballs. Chen Shun saw that Fan Hua liked them, so he gave him a few, but Fan Hua exchanged them for eggs." Chen Guifeng said.
"Yes! Fan Hua exchanged three eggs with me!" Shen Shun pointed to the eggs in his hand.
Cui Yongfang didn't believe what Chen Guifeng said.
She saw with her own eyes that Fan Hua gave Chen Shun three cents, and then Chen Shun gave the bowl of meatballs to Fan Hua. Otherwise, she wouldn't have come to test Chen Guifeng.
Chen Guifeng added, "But, that's because Fan Hua and Shen Shun got along so well, so we gave him a few meatballs. We couldn't share the rest, so we had to eat them ourselves."
After saying that, Chen Guifeng smiled and closed the gate.
After closing the door, the smile on Chen Guifeng's face disappeared, and she glared at Shen Shun with a gloomy face.
Shen Shun, who once again witnessed the dangers of the world, silently lowered his head and reflected on himself.
Chen Guifeng entered the kitchen, and Ye Fuyue, who had heard everything clearly, said to her, "Cui Yongfang really is always watching other people's affairs. She probably saw Fan Hua giving money to Shen Shun, so she deliberately came to buy meatballs."
Chen Guifeng snorted coldly: "She is a black-hearted person who wishes everyone a miserable life."
At this time, Cui Yongfang, who left the Shen family, went to the Fan family.
She said to Fan's mother directly: "My Tianxiong smelled that the Shen family was making meatballs and clamored to eat them. I just went to the Shen family to ask them to buy some, but they were unwilling to sell them to me. But I clearly saw your Fan Hua asking Shen Shun to buy meatballs."
Fan Hua, who had just been scolded by Fan's mother, lowered his head silently.
Mother Fan smiled and said, "You're mistaken. Fan Hua did ask Shen Shun for meatballs, but he exchanged them with Shen Shun for eggs. I was the one who gave the three eggs to Shen Shun."
Cui Yongfang was confused, and then he understood.
She guessed that after Fan's mother and Chen Guifeng knew what their son had done, Shen Shun returned the money and Fan's mother gave him eggs, which is why the two families' stories were so consistent.
Cui Yongfang suddenly felt bored.
She said, "I see. But even if I'm willing to trade the eggs with Aunt Chen, she won't give them to me. She says her family doesn't have enough to eat."
"If your Tianxiong wants to eat it, you can make it for her some other day. It's not like you don't know how to cook." Fan's mother said with a smile.
"That's right." Cui Yongfang agreed and left.
On the way home, Cui Yongfang sighed softly.
Even if Fan Hua really asked Chen Shun to buy meatballs, they were only three cents, and a few meatballs probably wouldn't cause much trouble. It would be better to keep an eye on Fang Ping, a distant relative of Aunt Liu's.
…
Soon it was the day of Yu Tong and Chen Che’s wedding.
Shen Yao drove Ye Fuyue to Yu Tong's house.
Ye Fuyue gave the storage box she had made to Yu Tong: "Your wedding gift."
Yu Tong, who was wearing a red dress and waiting for Chen Che to come and pick her up, saw the storage box and her eyes lit up: "What an exquisite storage box! Where did you buy such a beautiful storage box? I haven't seen anything like this even at the supply and marketing cooperative."
Ye Fuyue said proudly, "I designed it, and then asked a furniture factory to make it."
Yu Tong gave her a thumbs up: "Beautiful! I love this gift so much!"
"Cousin, I wish you and Chen Gongan a happy wedding, a long and happy marriage, and a baby soon." Du Huiling came over and blessed with a smile.
Shen Yuhong followed behind her and said to Yu Tong with a smile: "Yu girl, you are so beautiful today."
Yu Tong smiled at them perfunctorily without even saying hello.
Shen Yuhong didn't take it to heart, because when she saw Shen Yao, she quickly pulled Du Huiling over to Shen Yao's side.
Yu Tong finally had time to whisper to Ye Fuyue, "I asked my mother not to invite Du Huiling's family, but she said Shen Yuhong is my aunt after all, and our two families haven't reached the point of breaking off relations, so how can we not invite them for such a big event? I really don't want to see Du Huiling's family at all!"
Ye Fuyue understood Yu Tong's feelings, but she couldn't say anything.
She looked at Du Huiling and Shen Yuhong who were surrounding Shen Yao.
"Chen Yao, I haven't seen you for a long time. You look more energetic." Shen Yuhong said to Chen Yao with a smile on her face.
Shen Yao glanced at Shen Yuhong coldly and was about to leave when Shen Yuhong stopped him.
"Chen Yao, did your mother and your wife tell you about the last time Hui Ling and I went to your house to look for you?"
"You want me to introduce you to someone?" Shen Yao said indifferently.
"Yes!" Shen Yuhong's smile was a bit flattering: "Huiling is getting old, it's time for her to find a good husband. Your factory..."
Shen Yao interrupted her directly: "My mother has already told you very clearly last time. The opinions of my mother and my wife are my opinions."
