Chapter 95
"That's true," Aunt Liang mused. "But sometimes when we're chatting together, Fang Ping always takes the initiative to greet Aunt Liu when he comes back. After all, they're distant relatives, so it's normal that they're not very close."
"I think he might not be a distant relative of Aunt Liu's family..." Cui Yongfang was interrupted by a loud shout before he could finish his words.
"Liang Tianxiong—what are you doing—"
The person who scolded Liang Tianxiong was Wu Zhenzhen, but Liang Tianxiong had no idea what he had done, and had already run back to Cui Yongfang and Aunt Liang with a smile, hiding behind Aunt Liang.
Wu Zhenzhen was so angry that her face turned red. She pointed at a spot on her clothes and said to Cui Yongfang and Aunt Liang, "Your Liang Tianxiong wiped his nose on my clothes!"
Only then did Cui Yongfang and Aunt Liang see Liang Tianxiong's "masterpiece" on Wu Zhenzhen's clothes.
Aunt Liang backhandedly protected Liang Tianxiong, who was hiding behind her. Cui Yongfang said, "It will be clean after washing. What's the point of making such a fuss?"
"Is this something that can be solved by just washing it off? How disgusting!" Wu Zhenzhen frowned in disgust.
"What's so disgusting? You make it sound like you've never had a runny nose." Aunt Liang said.
"If you don't feel disgusted, let Liang Tianxiong wipe his snot on you or himself!" Wu Zhenzhen said.
"Then what do you want to do? You don't want me to wash your clothes, do you? I tell you, don't even think about it. Your clothes are already extremely dirty and should have been washed long ago." Cui Yongfang rolled her eyes.
"I have no objection if I let Liang Tianxiong wipe his snot on himself, or if you, as his mother, wipe your own son's snot on yourself!" Wu Zhenzhen said.
Although Cui Yongfang doted on her son Liang Tianxiong, she still disliked his snot. She felt uncomfortable just imagining herself wiping Liang Tianxiong's snot back.
"It's not a big deal. Is it necessary to do this? Just wash it yourself." Cui Yongfang said.
But Wu Zhenzhen refused to do so. She hurried over and tried to pull out Liang Tianxiong who was hiding behind Aunt Liang.
Cui Yongfang and Aunt Liang stopped Wu Zhenzhen from catching Liang Tianxiong. Liang Tianxiong hid behind Cui Yongfang and Aunt Liang, giggling as if he was playing a game of eagle catching chickens and finding it so funny.
"Wu Zhenzhen, are you crazy? Is it necessary to argue with a child over such a trivial matter?" Cui Yongfang stopped Wu Zhenzhen and yelled at her.
"Stay away from me! Do you think our Liang family is as easy to bully as your Wu family? If you hurt my grandson, I will never forgive you!" Aunt Liang also protected Liang Tianxiong and yelled at Wu Zhenzhen.
But Wu Zhenzhen ignored them. She was determined to get even with Liang Tianxiong today! If she didn't teach Liang Tianxiong a lesson, Liang Tianxiong would definitely make fun of her again in the future!
When the two sides were in a stalemate, Liang Tianxiong suddenly cried out in pain, "Ah--!"
Cui Yongfang and Aunt Liang quickly turned around and saw that Ye Fuyue, who had clearly left the compound, had returned at some point. She was grabbing Liang Tianxiong's ear and pushing him directly in front of Wu Zhenzhen.
"If you do something bad, you must have the courage to face the consequences. There's no point in hiding behind adults." Ye Fuyue said lightly.
Wu Zhenzhen grabbed Liang Tianxiong who was pushed over by Ye Fuyue, and rubbed the snot that Liang Tianxiong had rubbed on her back onto Liang Tianxiong.
There were still some that she hadn't rubbed back, so Wu Zhenzhen turned around and rubbed them against Cui Yongfang.
Cui Yongfang was so angry that she screamed "Ahhhhh——" Liang Tianxiong was also confused by this series of actions and started crying loudly.
"You two are teaming up to bully us, right?" Aunt Liang was so angry that her face turned black. She put her hands on her hips and yelled at Wu Zhenzhen and Ye Fuyue.
"Aunt Liang, what you said is not right. There are three of you, and there are only two of us, Wu Zhenzhen and I. If we talk about bullying, you are three bullying two!" Ye Fuyue said calmly.
"It was your Liang Tianxiong who rubbed his snot on me first. I'm returning it to you now, what's the problem? How does that count as bullying you? If we talk about bullying, it was you who took advantage of Liang Tianxiong's young age and ganged up on me first!" Wu Zhenzhen said angrily.
Cui Yongfang couldn't think of any rebuttal, so he could only direct his criticism at Ye Fuyue.
"Tianxiong didn't rub his snot on you, what's it got to do with you? Why are you pulling my Tianxiong's ears? Do you think you can pull my Tianxiong's ears? Who do you think you are!"
"You can't even manage your own son, and you let him bully the people in the compound all day long. Who do you think you are?" Ye Fuyue retorted without giving in. "He didn't rub his snot on me this time, but who knows if he'll do it again next time? He's teased so many people in the compound like this, and have you ever done anything about it? I just want to take this opportunity to tell him that if he rubs his snot on his mom, his grandma, or himself in the future, he can just eat it himself. Don't disgust anyone!"
"You—you—" Cui Yongfang and Aunt Liang were almost having trouble breathing because of Ye Fuyue's words.
Ye Fuyue ignored them and said to Liang Tianxiong, "Did you hear what I said just now? You will know what to do if you have runny nose next time!"
Liang Tianxiong's face was covered with tears, and he looked at Ye Fuyue with grievance, fear and anger.
Ye Fuyue nodded to Wu Zhenzhen, then turned and walked home.
She was originally going to the furniture factory, but she had just walked out of the slum and not far away when she realized that she had forgotten to bring something, so she turned back. That's when she happened to see the scene between Wu Zhenzhen and the Liang family.
Although Ye Fuyue disliked Liang Tianxiong, the naughty kid, and the Liang family, she was not one to meddle in other people's business. If Liang Tianxiong hadn't been teasing Wu Zhenzhen, and Ye Fuyue had some good feelings towards Wu Zhenzhen, she wouldn't have stood up.
The last time Liang Tianxiong teased her, Wu Zhenzhen stood up for her. This time, she can be said to have repaid Wu Zhenzhen's kindness.
…
As the end of January approaches, the atmosphere of the New Year in the streets becomes increasingly intense. This year, the New Year's Eve is later, not until February 10th.
Ye Fuyue received two pieces of good news at this time.
First, because her latest dresser and wardrobe designs were selling well, her January bonus was over seventy yuan. Although Director Li still mocked Ye Fuyue for this small bonus, saying it wasn't as good as the original buyout payment of one hundred yuan for each piece of furniture blueprint, Ye Fuyue knew that soon, her monthly bonus would exceed one hundred yuan, or even more.
The second good news is that Yu Tong and Chen Che are getting married.
Yu Tong told Ye Fuyue the good news in person when she went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy vegetables.
Upon hearing this news, Ye Fuyue was a little surprised: "You guys are pretty fast."
