Chapter 242 This person... is bad, hit her!
Although Chen Fanglan was angry at Shen Xuewei for being disloyal, Grandma Xi scolded her for not taking good care of Shen Xuewei, but surprisingly did not mention arranging blind dates for her.
Chen Fanglan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that misfortune had turned into a blessing in disguise.
Before long, Chen Fangqiu returned, and Grandma Xi's attention shifted to him, leaving Chen Fanglan alone.
The once quiet and deserted home became lively again with the return of the three little ones.
Grandpa Chen rubbed his hands together, then went to the chicken coop to catch a chicken to kill, and Shen Xuewei followed to help.
The elderly couple went to the market early in the morning and bought a lot of things to bring back home for their family to eat.
Shen Xuewei and Grandpa Chen prepared the chicken, and Grandma Xi took it and cooked it.
The dinner was exceptionally plentiful, and everyone ate until they were burping.
Shen Xuewei and Chen Fanglan only stayed at home for one day. After lunch the next day, they left home and walked slowly along the road to Fuxing Village, to Chen Fangli's house.
Chu Dexi had already learned to walk, albeit unsteadily. When Shen Xuewei and the other arrived at the Chu family's door, they saw him slowly walking out, supporting himself on the door frame.
Chen Fanglan squatted down, clapped her hands, and beckoned Chu Dexi over.
"Kang Kang, Kang Kang, do you still remember your aunt? Come to your aunt, and your aunt will give you candy."
Kang Kang hadn't seen her for several months and probably didn't recognize her, so he hesitated and didn't go over.
Shen Xuewei also squatted down and looked at Chu Dexi gently.
"Kang Kang, do you still remember your sister?"
Chu Dexi tilted his head to look at her, and gradually remembered who she was. He then rushed towards her in a flash.
Shen Xuewei was startled and quickly stepped forward to catch him.
"Wow, you're quite the daredevil, aren't you?"
Chen Fanglan frowned. "How come he recognizes you but not me?"
Shen Xuewei lifted Chu Dexi by his armpits and put him back in the walker.
“I visited my aunt's house just last month and played with Kang Kang for a while. It's normal that he remembers me, isn't it? The last time you came was almost half a year ago. Expecting him to remember you is a bit of a misunderstanding about his memory, isn't it?”
This child is only a little over one year old. How can you expect him to remember so many people at such a young age?
Chen Fanglan thought about it and agreed. She stepped inside and went to tease Chu Dexi again.
Shen Xuewei brought the things she had just left by the door inside, placed them on the table, and shouted:
"Grandpa Chu, Second Aunt and Second Uncle, De'an, Auntie and I have come to see you!"
Chen Fangli's voice came from the restroom, "I heard you, I heard you. Weiwei, Alan, you sit down first, I'll be right out."
There was a noise coming from Chu De'an's room. The door opened, and Chu Fu came out holding a bamboo stick.
Upon seeing Shen Xuewei and the other person, his expression softened, and he forced a smile.
"You've arrived! Please have a seat. We'll have dinner at home later."
Glancing at the things on the table, he said, "You're already here, why bring a gift? It's too formal."
Chen Fanglan pushed Chu Dexi, who was trying to get out of the walker, back down. Seeing Chu Dexi sitting in the walker, yelling angrily at her, she smiled broadly.
"It's been a long time since I've been here. I just brought a little something that the kids like. Don't say anything about it being expensive or anything like that. I don't like hearing that."
Chu Fu was about to say that they were wasting money, but before he could say anything, Chen Fanglan's words stopped him in his tracks.
"Alright, I'll do as you say. But when your second sister comes out and sees this, she'll say you can't blame me."
He glanced at the room behind him. "De'an, aren't you coming out? Are you waiting inside to celebrate the New Year?"
Judging from his tone, Shen Xuewei knew that Chu De'an had probably gotten into trouble again.
Chu De'an moved slowly, taking small steps, until he finally managed to get out.
He cautiously stared at the bamboo stick in Chu Fu's hand, and when he made sure that the bamboo stick was not raised, he quickly hid behind Shen Xuewei.
Shen Xuewei turned to look at him and asked in a low voice, "What trouble have you gotten into this time?"
Chu De'an looked guilty. "I was playing with Xiao Pang and the others, and I accidentally crushed the grape trellis next to the house."
There are three grapevines next to the Chu family's house, with the grape trellis supported by bamboo and various kinds of wood.
Shen Xuewei had previously heard Chu Fu mention that these three grapevines seemed to have been planted by him and his mother when he was a child…
Shen Xuewei sighed, patted Chu De'an's hand off her shoulder, and replied with a single word: "Serves you right!"
Chu De'an's face scrunched up. "Sister, I really didn't mean to. Little Fatty pushed me, and I accidentally knocked over the grape trellis."
"He got away, but my dad caught me and beat me up. I was so wronged..."
Chu Fu appeared beside him at some point, the bamboo stick in his hand raised again, and said in a chilling tone:
"You mean I wronged you?"
Chu De'an screamed in fright and ran away.
Chu Fu gave a heavy snort. "If you don't discipline him for three days, he'll be climbing on the roof and tearing off the tiles. I thought he'd become more mature since he went to school in town, but it turns out he hasn't changed at all..."
When Chu Fu is angry, probably only Chen Fangli and Grandpa Chu can persuade him.
Shen Xuewei had known Chu Fu for several years, but this was the first time she had ever seen him so angry.
She gave a dry laugh, "Haha...maybe, maybe De'an really didn't mean it. Second Uncle, please try to hit him gently, he still has to go to school."
She didn't dare to tell Chu Fu to stop hitting him, she only dared to tell him to hit him less hard...
Chu Fu tried his best to suppress his anger. "It's okay, I've already hit him. I won't hit him again."
After Chen Fangli finished using the restroom, she looked at Shen Xuewei and Chen Fanglan with tender eyes.
"It's rare to see the two of you come together."
Chu Dexi tried to get out of the walker several times, but Chen Fanglan deliberately blocked him. He pointed at Chen Fanglan and complained to Chen Fangli.
"Mom, this person... she's bad, hit her!"
His words made everyone laugh.
Chen Fangli took him out of the walker and touched his face.
"No, we won't hit Auntie, okay? Kang Kang is a good boy, Auntie is a bad boy, we won't argue with Auntie."
When his beloved mother said this, Chu Dexi nodded reluctantly and said, "Okay."
Chen Fanglan was completely charmed by him and nudged Shen Xuewei.
Shen Xuewei picked up the schoolbag that she had just put aside and took out a bag from it.
Once the bag was taken out, the backpack, which had been stuffed full, instantly deflated.
Shen Xuewei emptied the two coats out of the bag.
"Second Aunt, these are the jackets that Little Aunt bought for De'an and Kang Kang. Little Aunt and I went to buy them together."
"Hurry up and let Kang Kang try it on, see if it fits."
Chen Fangli scolded, "Why did you bring so much stuff? It's such a waste of money."
Chen Fanglan was impatient to hear these words. "Alright, my brother-in-law has already said something unpleasant. Second sister, you mustn't say anything more."
She pushed Shen Xuewei over, "Hey, didn't you miss Weiwei? Weiwei is right here, isn't she? Look at her however you like, hurry up and look, we're leaving soon."
"We won't eat dinner; we won't have enough time."
