Because Xu Yi and Xu Wen both returned, the entire Xu family gradually came back as well.

Cheng Song stared in shock at the Xu family's house, even though Xu Yi had just said they were going back to the village.

When he entered the village, he thought it was just an ordinary village, but when he got to the east side of the village...

Seeing such a large house, he always felt it was out of place in this village.

"Go inside, my family is very kind," Xu Yi said to him as he turned around.

Cheng Song quickly followed, giving Xu Yi a meaningful look, "Your house is excellent even in town."

In their spare time, people inevitably talk about their own families. Xu Yi always said that his family was from the village and that his family ran a small restaurant.

Cheng Song even showed off a bit, saying that his family owned some property in the town, several shops facing the street.

Since our family isn't cut out for business, we rented out the storefront. The rent alone is enough for us to live comfortably each year.

Looking back now, I realize I was a bit too arrogant; truly wealthy people are very low-key.

On his way back, he also heard that the famous Fumanlou restaurant in the area was actually owned by Xu Yi's family.

Original text from Tower Reading Novels

Fu Man Lou has several branches, and to exaggerate a bit, you could say they make a fortune every day.

"It's just an ordinary family's house." Their family's assets might be among the best in the village.

But if you look further ahead, it's nothing special.

"Brother, we're having fish for dinner. What kind would you like? Boiled fish, braised fish, or sweet and sour fish?"

While the two were talking, Fu Man'er had already run to the kitchen.

Because she had been clamoring for fish during the day, she went to the pond and caught one herself.

Now that Xu Yi is back, we definitely need to ask him what his taste is when it comes to fish.

Xu Yi has never been picky about food; he simply says, "I like whichever flavor is the best."

"In winter, boiled fish fillets are the best choice. In the hot summer, steamed fish and braised fish are more suitable."

"But I want to eat fish that's crispy and crunchy. If I had to choose, braised fish would be the best."

When the cook in the Xu family makes braised fish, she first fries the fish, giving it a crispy exterior and tender interior.

Just imagining the scene of the soup coating her mouth made Fu Man'er swallow hard.

"Then let's have braised fish," Xu Yi said.

"Okay, I'll go tell the kitchen." Fu Man'er only realized something was wrong halfway there.

Didn't she just ask her brother what flavor he wanted? How did it turn into her own favorite flavor later?

Xu Yi only looked away when Fu Man'er's skirt disappeared around the corner.

Turning around, I saw Cheng Song with a dazed look on his face. "Ahem."

Xu Yi coughed twice, and Cheng Song finally came to his senses, feeling slightly embarrassed.

There was no way around it; Fu Man'er was indeed too beautiful and very lively. Cheng Song had never seen such a beautiful woman in his entire life.

"Xu Yi, your sister is a real beauty."

What was meant to be a compliment made Xu Yi feel very uncomfortable. "My sister is still very young."

In his eyes, Fu Man'er was still the same as when she was five or six years old, needing to be coaxed, cared for, and pampered.

The two hadn't exchanged more than a few words when dinner was served. As guests, Grandma Xu and Grandpa Xu inevitably had to give him a few extra words of advice.

"Grandpa and Grandma, you're too kind." Cheng Song was a very nice person; his words were pleasant to hear and he knew how to behave appropriately.

Even on the first time we sit down to eat together, we can still exchange a few words.

On the contrary, Xu Yi basically doesn't speak unless he's called by name.

He was sitting next to Fu Man'er, busy serving the little girl food.

After finishing a bowl of rice, Fu Man'er couldn't eat anymore because Xu Yi kept putting food on her plate. By the time she finally finished eating, her little belly was bulging.

"You only ate this little bit?" Xu Yi looked at the empty bowl she was holding protectively with displeasure.

"I'm full." The little girl's voice was still soft and sweet, especially now that she was drawing out the last syllable.

"That's too little. Look how thin you've become." Xu Yi thought the reason she was so thin was because she wasn't eating enough.

"That's right, little sister, you need to eat more. You used to be able to eat three bowls of rice by yourself."

After gulping down a few mouthfuls of food, Xu Wen said that he always felt that martial artists had big appetites.

"I'm really full, look." To prove that she was really full, Fu Man'er leaned back in her chair and put her hand on her stomach.

A clearly visible, slightly bulging belly immediately appeared, and three people at the dinner table instantly changed their expressions.

Two of them were Liu Fang and Old Lady Xu. They went to great lengths to make Fu Man'er resemble a lady from a respectable family.

Normally it wouldn't matter, and people would even tease her a bit, but today there are guests at home.

"Man'er." Liu Fang called out once, and Fu Man'er immediately understood. She stuck out her tongue guiltily and slowly sat up straight.

As for the other person, that would be Xu Yi. How could a young lady like her let her belly swell up so easily?

He subconsciously leaned forward a little, blocking Fu Man'er from view.

"Since you're full, then don't eat anymore. We'll have the kitchen staff get you some fruit later."

Xu Yi didn't want to force her anymore, but without serving Fu Man'er food, he felt that his meals were rather tasteless.

The meal was eaten quickly, as the Xu family considered that the children had traveled a long way and there were outsiders present.

Even if there were a thousand or ten thousand questions in my mind, I kept them to myself first.

"Man'er, don't disturb your brother's rest today." Liu Fang came to Fu Man'er's room to give her this instruction after arranging Cheng Song's accommodations.

Given how clingy Fu Man'er is to Xu Yi, this little girl will probably pester him with all sorts of questions.

I just heard Xu Yi say that the group had rushed back overnight without resting along the way.

There was also a dark spot under his eyes, which showed that he really hadn't been sleeping well lately.

"Mother, I know." Fu Man'er sat in front of the dressing table, took off the hairpin in her hair, and her long black hair fell down like a waterfall.

This is what Xu Yi saw when he passed by the door.

He suddenly realized that the chubby little girl he had brought home had really grown up.

In the candlelight, her graceful figure could still be vaguely seen.

Wait, what is he looking at?

Xu Yi felt a rush of heat to his head and quickly looked away.

"Brother?" Fu Man'er turned around and saw Xu Yi standing at the door. Her eyes instantly lit up with excitement.

"Brother, aren't you asleep yet?" She clearly remembered that her brother had gone back to his room with the older brother who had come with him.

Xu Yi felt that since he came home, he had been frowning more and more often.

For example, in the summer, the clothes we wear are already thin, and after Fu Man'er finished washing up, she was only wearing a thin dress.

The neckline was quite low, and Xu Yi could see her fair and jade-like skin as soon as he looked down.

"Brother?" Fu Man'er only reached Xu Yi's chest. At this moment, she tilted her head and looked at Xu Yi with an innocent expression.

Xu Yi quickly grabbed her shoulders and pushed her inside, saying, "Go inside and go to sleep."

"Shuangxi, how can you serve Miss like this? It's getting chilly at night, why don't you give her an extra coat?"

Xu Yi had already spoken, so Shuangxi hurriedly went to the wardrobe to get clothes, even though it was still very hot at night.

However, since the young master feels it's cold, then it is cold.

Before I could even say "I'm not cold," Xu Yi had already taken the coat from Shuangxi and draped it over Fu Man'er's shoulders.

"From now on, put on your coat after washing up. Also, close the door after washing up. Why are you sticking your body out?"

Xu Yi's face had matured considerably, and he spoke with such seriousness that no one dared to refute him.

Fu Man'er's eyelashes trembled slightly. Why had her brother become so long-winded? She understood these words without him saying them.

After finishing his rambling, Xu Yi finally went back to his room. He had just finished tidying up when a soft knock came at the door.
