I used to see him as quite shrewd, how come he's turned out like this after just one Chinese New Year?
Ye Beiping and Su Xinyi couldn't help but laugh again when they thought of Ye Xiaoxin's troubles in Pingba Village.
Su Qingwen and his wife frowned, wondering if their daughter and son-in-law also had some serious illness.
In the end, Su Xinyi laughed until her stomach hurt and she couldn't laugh anymore, so she recounted Ye Xiaoxin's experience in Pingba Village.
This amused Su Qingwen and Min Yuehua, making them laugh.
Min Yuehua, in particular, exclaimed in surprise, "No way, how could someone in their twenties be tricked into buying firecrackers by a bunch of kids?"
Su Qingwen, however, had a different opinion.
"You underestimate little kids. Have you forgotten how many times Xinyi and Xinwan fooled you when they were little?"
"This..." Thinking of her children when they were little, Min Yuehua laughed until tears streamed down her face. The tears were mostly filled with emotion that her children had grown up and she was beginning to miss the days when they would chase after her every day calling her "Mom."
However, Min Yuehua realized something and, looking at Su Xinyi's belly, another thought came to her mind: "Mom won't call me that anymore, but it would be nice if a little one could call me Grandma. I must get along well with this little one and try to recapture that feeling from before."
If people knew what Min Yuehua was thinking, their first reaction would probably be that she had masochistic tendencies.
Anyone who's been through it knows how difficult it is to raise a little kid. Min Yuehua actually wants to go through it a second... well, a fourth time, after all, she already had three children.
Ye Xiaoxin, who took Su Xinwan to buy firecrackers, was overjoyed.
But when she got to the entrance of the convenience store, she realized that she had been fooled every day in Pingba Village. No, this time she would try to fool someone else.
She had just seen Ye Beiping give Su Xinwan a red envelope.
Ye Beiping was never stingy with his spending; as long as Beiping's products were of the highest quality, Ye Xiaoxin said while picking out firecrackers, "Xinwan, it seems like Sister Xiaoxin didn't bring any money, what should we do?"
"It's okay, I have one," Su Xinwan said generously, not caring at all.
She cares about who plays with her, not who pays her.
You should know that the current Su Xinwan is not the Su Xinwan of the past; she has over a hundred yuan in her secret stash.
As she spoke, she opened the red envelope Ye Beiping had given her, saw the neatly arranged 100-yuan notes inside, waved them in front of Ye Xiaoxin, and said with a smile, "Sister Xiaoxin, my brother-in-law gave me a generous red envelope, probably a hundred yuan."
oh?
Ye Xiaoxin glanced enviously at the money in the red envelope. She estimated there was indeed a hundred yuan. She subconsciously touched her pocket and thought: Am I being a bit too much? I actually cheated a sixteen or seventeen-year-old child out of money.
In the blink of an eye, she was picking out different firecrackers, her eyes dazzled, and she instantly forgot about the problem.
Indeed, as Ye Beiping said, the firecrackers in Hangzhou are more varied than those in his hometown.
One person picked out four or five items.
When Su Xinwan was about to pay, she noticed that Ye Xiaoxin had already quickly taken out a ten-yuan note from her pocket and handed it to the shopkeeper.
This scene left Su Xinwan stunned.
Didn't you just say you had no money?
Ye Xiaoxin noticed that Su Xinwan was standing still and urged her, "Come on, it won't be fun if it gets dark."
"Oh, they're here." Su Xinwan's lips twitched, feeling that Ye Xiaoxin had just been testing their friendship.
I can't believe someone in their twenties would still be playing these games.
What a brat.
After silently grumbling to herself, Su Xinwan and Ye Xiaoxin started setting off firecrackers all over the neighborhood.
It made some of the older people in the neighborhood want to start cursing.
Upon realizing it was Su Xinwan and another girl he didn't recognize, he immediately snapped out of it and decided to just bear with it.
And so, by nine o'clock, Su Xinyi had already started to doze off, and Ye Beiping finally suggested that they go back.
As everyone was leaving, Su Xinwan secretly walked up to Ye Beiping and recounted what had just happened.
This made Ye Beiping laugh out loud again.
Everyone looked at Ye Beiping and Su Xinwan in confusion, wondering what was so funny.
Ye Beiping could only suppress his laughter and patted Su Xinwan's head, saying, "Your little sister Xinwan wasn't testing you, she was trying to fool you, but she didn't succeed."
"Huh?" Su Xinwan didn't understand Ye Beiping's words.
Ye Xiaoxin, the only one who understood, blushed to the roots of her ears and glared at Ye Beiping, feeling extremely annoyed. She had been having so much fun that she had completely forgotten about it.
After Ye Beiping left.
Su Qingwen then asked Su Xinwan what had happened, and she naturally told him the truth.
This amused Su Qingwen and Min Yuehua greatly, because they immediately thought of Ye Xiaoxin's misfortune in Pingba Village.
Now I understand why Ye Xiaoxin would fall for even a little kid's tricks, and why she could scheme against Su Xinwan so thoroughly, only to be exposed in the end.
Hahaha.
Su Xinwan, who prides herself on her excellent grades, is indeed among the top three in her class, so why doesn't she understand Ye Beiping's words?
The adult world is so complicated.
It's the same principle as being ostracized when your brother goes to jail.
But one thing is certain: she is very happy today.
