Chapter 85 The Little Scoundrel's Dark Moonlight Educated Youth 20
When Shen Xinran and Wei Ping'an returned home, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon, just in time for dinner.
Wei Rong frowned when he saw the two of them coming back, and said in a deep voice, "Now that you're both back, we can talk about the division of the family."
Wei Ping'an said with a playful smile: "Dad, why do you want to divide the family as soon as I come back? I'm only twenty now, you and mom should support me for a few more years, otherwise Mingzhu will be under too much pressure!"
Wei Rong's expression suddenly darkened. "Don't you know why I want to split up the family?"
Wei Pingan shrugged, looking nonchalant. "Okay, as long as you're happy."
Shen Xinran stood behind Wei Ping'an, remaining silent. She wasn't surprised by this scene. Because in the plot, Wei Rong also proposed a separation shortly after Wei Ping'an and Li Mingzhu got married.
Wei Rong panted heavily and said seriously, "The only things we can divide up at home are the house, food, and money. Most of the house was built by your two brothers, so we'll only give you the room you live in now. As for the food, you didn't contribute much, so giving you fifty kilograms of rice is already a great favor. As for the money, your two brothers didn't spend much on their wives, so I won't give you any money."
When Wei Pingan heard this, he laughed out loud, "How can this be called a family division? This is clearly about separating me."
Wei Rong nodded and said seriously, "I'm just separating you. Do you have any objections?"
Wei Pingan pursed his lips, "How dare I have any objection!"
He turned to look at Shen Xinran and sighed, "Mingzhu, you will suffer if you follow me."
Shen Xinran's eyes curved, "No, my parents only gave you away, not me."
Wu Chunhua, who was still standing by, nodded and said, "Yes, that's what we mean."
Wei Ping'an's mouth twitched as he asked, "Can it be like this?"
Wei Rong glanced at Wei Ping'an and snorted coldly, "So, from today on, you'll be eating your own food. If there's no food left, then you'll starve to death!"
Seeing Wei Ping'an lowering his head and remaining silent, Shen Xinran quietly walked up to him and whispered, "Don't worry, I won't let you starve to death. I can save you a small amount of food from my rations every day."
Wei Pingan looked up at Shen Xinran, and suddenly felt warm in his heart, "Mingzhu, you are still good to me."
But the problem is, even a small bite is not enough!
…
Ever since Wei Rong mentioned the separation of the family, Wei Ping'an seemed to be isolated from the Wei family.
He didn't care, he just ate and drank as he pleased. At night, he and Shen Xinran would be affectionate and play games that only two people could play.
Seeing Wei Ping'an approaching again, Shen Xinran frowned and said coldly: "Get lost, I don't want to move today."
Wei Ping'an's mouth stretched, a smile spreading across his face. A smile even reached his eyes. "Just lie still, I'll do the moving."
Shen Xinran glared at Wei Ping'an with a red face. Ever since he had his vasectomy, this bastard has become more and more unrestrained.
After everything was over, Wei Pingan had eaten and drunk his fill. He lay flat on the bed. He complained to Shen Xinran, "Mingzhu, don't you think Dad went too far this time?"
Shen Xinran was so sleepy that he could barely open his eyes. He whispered, "I think it's okay. Otherwise, why would they only send you out and not me?"
Wei Pingan: "..."
Why do I suddenly feel so depressed?
After Shen Xinran finished speaking, he closed his eyes and prepared to go to sleep. Wei Pingan began to reflect on whether he had really done anything wrong over the years.
After two hours of contemplation, Wei Pingan finally came to a conclusion. He shook Shen Xinran awake and said seriously, "I don't think I did anything wrong. It's this world that's wrong."
Shen Xinran was woken up by Wei Pingan just as she was falling asleep. She rolled her eyes at him. The male protagonist's ability to resist internal friction was quite impressive. She turned over and continued to sleep.
But Wei Pingan asked her: "Mingzhu, do you also think I should go to work?"
Shen Xinran yawned, his eyes hazy. "I don't know. I only know that you still owe me a watch."
Wei Pingan: "..."
What's this sudden pressure?
The next morning, when Shen Xinran opened her eyes, she saw Wei Ping'an staring at her intently. The dark purple bruises under his eyes were hard to conceal, and it was obvious that he hadn't slept all night.
As Chen Xinran put on his clothes, he smiled and said, "I told you not to indulge yourself, but you refused to believe me. Now you can't sleep, right?"
Wei Pingan sat up from the bed. "That's not the reason. I just spent the whole night thinking about it."
Shen Xinran turned around, glanced at Wei Ping'an, and asked, "Have you figured out anything?"
Wei Ping'an walked up to Shen Xinran, his eyes shining as he asked, "Mingzhu, what do you think of me doing business?"
Shen Xinran raised an eyebrow, "You want to sell things on the black market?"
Wei Pingan shook his head. "That's too dangerous. I mean supplying goods to the black market. Anyway, I have a bicycle now, so it's convenient for me to travel around the streets."
Shen Xinran frowned slightly, "You mean to be a middleman and make a profit from the price difference?"
Wei Pingan laughed directly, "Yes, that's what I mean."
Shen Xinran patted Wei Ping'an's shoulder and said seriously, "I think it's okay. I believe you."
…
Although Wei Ping'an was lazy, he was quite active. After talking to Shen Xinran, he rode his bicycle out to inquire about the market. He didn't return until the evening.
Seeing this, Wei Rong thought that Wei Ping'an had gone out to play again. He couldn't help but shook his head and sighed. He really didn't know when his son would grow up.
As soon as Wei Ping'an came back, he went back to his room and gulped down a large mouthful of water. "I haven't eaten anything all day. Is there anything I can eat to fill my stomach?"
Chen Xinran opened the cabinet and handed Wei Ping'an a piece of peach cake, "This is the only one we have, you'll have to make do with it for now!"
Wei Ping'an ate with big mouthfuls, complaining as he ate, "You have no idea, I'm almost dead tired today. I went to two black markets, and the people there were more difficult than the other. I told them I could supply them, but they didn't believe me and insisted that I send them a batch tomorrow to see how it goes."
After watching Wei Ping'an finish his meal, Shen Xinran handed him another piece of peach cake and said with a smile, "It's not easy to be a middleman. You just have to get used to it."
Wei Ping'an's eyes instantly moistened. He had wanted to give up, but after hearing what Shen Xinran said, he instantly became full of fighting spirit. He stood up straight and said seriously: "Mingzhu, don't worry, I will work hard to make money and buy you a watch."
That night, Shen Xinran had already fallen asleep when someone suddenly woke her up. When she opened her eyes, she saw Wei Ping'an, who had already dressed.
Wei Pingan smiled at her and said, "I plan to go to the next village to buy some vegetables and send them to the black market."
Shen Xinran frowned and asked, "What does this have to do with you waking me up?"
Wei Pingan blinked and said, "I won't be back until dawn. I will miss you."
Shen Xinran was so angry that his eyelids twitched violently. So, this is the reason why you woke me up in the middle of the night?
Wei Ping'an tilted his head, "Don't you have anything to say to me?"
The more Shen Xinran thought about it, the angrier he got. Wasn't it just a few hours away? If someone didn't know, they would think it was a life-or-death farewell!
She took a deep breath and said through gritted teeth, "Then be careful."
Wei Ping'an originally wanted Shen Xinran to give him a farewell kiss, but Shen Xinran obviously realized it.
He bent down and kissed Shen Xinran on the forehead. "Then I'll leave first. You should take good care of yourself at home."
Looking at Wei Ping'an's leaving back, Shen Xinran was almost furious. He just delivered the goods, but he had to wake her up. Is she that kind of person?
Wei Ping'an rode his bicycle forward in the cold wind. This was all due to the pressure of life!
But for the sake of being able to eat and drink well, and for Mingzhu's watch, everything is worth it.
