When Ye Fangxuan got up, breakfast was already over, and Fang Jie was busy with a thorough cleaning.
They were extremely busy, both inside and outside the house.
Song Darong still had social engagements even though the Chinese New Year was approaching, and he went out after breakfast.
Song Yaohua was sent by Fang Jie to deliver something to the pig farm and was not at home.
Song Fanxing went to see Zhou Zan off but hasn't returned yet.
Ye Fangxuan was hungry, so she found Fang Jie and asked, "Auntie, is there anything to eat?"
Fang Jie stopped what she was doing and said, "There's porridge and dumplings in the pot. See if they're still hot. If not, you can heat them up yourself."
After saying that, he went back to doing his own thing.
She's been so busy lately that she hasn't even finished cleaning the house yet. The Lunar New Year is just around the corner, so she has to hurry; there's still so much preparation work to be done.
Ye Fangxuan was stunned for a moment.
What does that mean? Her aunt is telling her to heat up her own food? She's only been here two days and she's already being told to do it herself? Is this really her aunt?
However, judging from Fang Jie's expression, it was impossible for her to heat it up.
She had no choice but to start the fire herself.
My aunt's family always has great food; they even have dumplings.
She ate a large plate of dumplings and drank two bowls of porridge, patting her belly with satisfaction.
Arriving in the courtyard, I looked around.
"Auntie, where's that handsome man from yesterday?"
Fang Jie was taken aback. "Which handsome man?"
"It's the one who lives at home, the one that's quite tall."
Fang Jie realized she was referring to Zhou Zan, and her eyes narrowed.
"Going home."
"I'm home..."
Ye Fangxuan looked disappointed.
She was still hoping to make a good impression on him; she was beautiful, and that man would like her.
"Auntie, where is he from?"
Fang Jie became suspicious. "Why are you asking this?"
"Just asking casually."
"I don't know, those are friends of the stars."
Ye Fangxuan pouted. She knew Fang Jie had lied to her; she definitely knew, she just didn't want to tell her.
She deliberately rubbed her waist.
"Auntie, my back hurts so much."
"What's wrong?"
"The wooden board is too hard, it hurts all over my body. Auntie, could you talk to my cousin and let me sleep in the bed?"
Fang Jie: "No, your cousin is too delicate to sleep on a wooden board. How about this, I'll put another blanket under your bed tonight."
Ye Fangxuan's face turned ugly. How was Song Fanxing delicate? But what could she say?
"Okay...okay."
Fang Jie turned and went inside to tidy up other things; she didn't want to say a word to her niece.
If you don't see eye to eye, even half a sentence is too much.
Ye Fangxuan was furious when she saw Fu Yichen standing in the neighboring courtyard.
Her eyes lit up.
Standing on this side of the wall, he shouted, "Brother Fu!"
Fu Yichen turned his head and saw her. He walked over and his eyes lit up when he saw Ye Fangxuan's clothes.
Ye Fangxuan naturally noticed the change in his eyes.
"Brother Fu, is that your home?"
"Yes, my dad is a military commander. I lived here for many years before I left when I joined the army."
"Commander? Is that a very high-ranking officer?"
"My father is next to Commander Song."
Ye Fangxuan was excited, never expecting that Fu Yichen was actually the army commander's son.
If she could marry Fu Yichen, that would mean marrying into the military commander's family, then a good life would be waiting for her.
"Brother Fu, what is your position in the army?"
Why are you interested in these things?
"Brother Fu, did I ask too much? It's alright, Brother Fu, it's fine if you don't tell me, I was just asking out of curiosity."
Ye Fangxuan acted as if she were gentle, weak, and understanding.
Fu Yichen was about to answer.
Song Fanxing pushed her bicycle in.
They came over here.
Song Fanxing always has a powerful aura, making her the center of attention wherever she goes, and no one can ignore her.
Fu Yichen just stared at her.
Ye Fangxuan was furious when she saw this.
Song Fanxing stopped not far from them and smiled softly.
"Ye Fangxuan, let me explain. Fu Yichen is the second oldest in his family, so it's not appropriate for you to call him 'eldest brother.' He's a company commander in the army, in charge of my second brother and Zhou Zan, among others. By the way, Zhou Zan is the one who was at my house yesterday, understand?"
Ye Fangxuan, her eyes red-rimmed, said, "Cousin, I won't ask around anymore, I..."
Then she said to Fu Yichen, "Brother Fu... I'm sorry, I didn't know."
Fu Yichen said angrily, "Song Fanxing, are you sick? You have to nitpick at everyone. Fangxuan just wants to know my position, it's not like it's something that can't be said, why are you acting like that? What did she do to you? Can't you stop being so condescending?"
Song Fanxing blinked, looking completely innocent. Her intention was simply to help Ye Fangxuan understand Fu Yichen's situation so that they could quickly become a couple.
Fu Yichen didn't appreciate it and instead criticized her.
"Fu Yichen, am I wrong? Aren't you all being too sensitive? What's wrong with me introducing you to her? Is that not allowed? Fine, fine, you introduce yourself."
"Song Fanxing, stop being sarcastic."
"I didn't!"
"You are! You've always looked down on me since we were little, and you've never even given me a second glance."
Why should I even look at you?
Fu Yichen was so angry he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
"See? You've already admitted it."
Song Fanxing was too lazy to talk to him. "Alright, alright, you two talk it over. I'm going in."
After Song Fanxing left, Ye Fangxuan said, "Second Brother Fu, my cousin has always been like that since she was little, don't take it to heart."
Fu Yichen took a deep breath.
"I won't hold it against her. You're so understanding. If only she had half your personality."
Ye Fangxuan lowered her head and smiled smugly.
"Second Brother Fu, I'm new here and don't know this place well. Could you show me around?"
"sure."
Fu Yichen agreed without hesitation.
Song Fanxing watched the two leave together from inside the house, humming a song in a good mood.
Turning around, I saw Fang Jie picking up the bowls and taking them to the kitchen to wash.
"Mom, did Ye Fangxuan eat and not wash the dishes?"
Fang Jie looked unwell.
"Yeah, they just left it on the table after eating, it makes me so angry."
She can't stand a messy house, so she washed the bowls and pots and put them away neatly.
Song Fanxing said, "Mom, next time make her wash it, don't spoil her."
"Yes, I will. I won't spoil her."
"Mom, what other places in the house need cleaning? I'll help."
"Okay, could you help me re-cover the windows with new newspaper? The new newspaper is in our room. I've already prepared the flour paste."
"Okay, I guarantee I'll complete the mission!"
Fang Jie was happy when she looked at her own daughter, but she couldn't help but feel annoyed by her niece.
The two were working.
Sister Liu has arrived.
"Hey sis, have you seen our second son?"
Fang Jie was unaware that Fu Yichen and Ye Fangxuan had gone out.
"I didn't see it."
Song Fanxing then came out and said, "He and Ye Fangxuan went out."
Upon hearing this, Sister Liu said a few words and left in a hurry.
Ye Fangxuan didn't return until lunchtime, just in time for everyone to eat.
Without saying a word, she picked up her bowl and started eating.
