Chapter 259 If I get hit... I'll just die.
Shen Xuewei and her companion sat in the living room chatting casually with Grandpa Chu.
Xu Yue turned around and looked at Chen Fangli's busy figure in the kitchen, then suddenly bumped into Shen Xuewei's arm.
“Hey, Weiwei, your second aunt doesn’t feel like a relative to me, she feels more like your mother.”
She carefully examined Shen Xuewei's face. "To be honest, you two actually look a bit alike."
Shen Xuewei was in a very good mood.
Hearing her say that she looks like her second aunt made her feel even better.
Before she could speak, Grandpa Chu chuckled and said, "Weiwei was raised by Ali, so she's just like her mother."
At this moment, Chu Dexi woke up in the room, and Shen Xuewei quickly went in to help him out.
With Shen Xuewei taking care of him, Chu Dexi's grandfather continued to chat with Xu Yue, mostly about Shen Xuewei's childhood.
Chen Fangli and Chu Fu worked in the kitchen for nearly an hour before finally finishing the meal.
As everyone was eating, someone carrying a cardboard box passed by outside the door and greeted the Chu family.
"Hey, why are you guys eating so early today?"
"It's getting late, it's already eleven o'clock, it's time for lunch. You've come at the perfect time, come over to my house and have some too."
Grandpa Chu greeted the passing villagers.
The man waved his hand, "No need, I've already cooked at home, we can eat right away."
"Oh, by the way, there was another car accident at that spot. The driver died on the spot, but there are lots of tomatoes there to pick..."
He shook the cardboard box he was holding to his chest. "Look, I brought back a whole box. Brother Chu, you should go and get some too."
Although Grandpa Chu felt sorry for the driver, his eyes lit up when he heard that there were tomatoes to pick.
"Oh, what a great thing! Okay, I won't talk to you anymore, I'll go find a basket and carry some back."
The man left with a smile. Grandpa Chu didn't even bother to eat. He picked up the basket in the corner and went to fill it with tomatoes.
Chu Fu wouldn't let him go, saying, "Dad, eat first, then you can go."
Grandpa Chu glared at him, "You want to finish eating before you go? If you finish eating, will there be any left for us?"
"Don't worry about me, you guys keep eating."
He shouldered his basket, hurried away from home, and headed straight for the scene of the car accident.
Chu Fu watched his departing figure and decided to let him go, since nothing bad could possibly happen.
However, thinking about the car accident I witnessed today, I feel a bit sad.
"Ali, do you think that place is a bit eerie? There's been more than one car accident there. What if we accidentally hit someone?"
Chen Fangli fed Chu Dexi a piece of green vegetable with her chopsticks, then paused.
"What else can we do? If we get hit... we'll just die."
Xu Yue coughed suddenly, feeling that what Shen Xuewei's second aunt said had the flavor of a lame joke.
Chu Fu muttered, "They really can only die. Such a big car, and it's going so fast..."
Chen Fangli didn't want to hear about this anymore, so she patted him on the shoulder.
"Just eat properly and stop saying such unlucky things."
"oh."
Chu Fu responded in a muffled voice, then stopped talking and focused on eating.
Chen Fangli put a piece of cured meat on Shen Xuewei's plate, and then put a piece on Xu Yue's plate as well.
Xu Yue thanked her, feeling flattered. Chen Fangli smiled at her and continued looking at Shen Xuewei.
"Weiwei, are you adjusting well to the experimental class? Is the academic pressure heavy? I heard that your class is full of high-achieving students..."
Shen Xuewei answered whatever she asked.
Chu Fu finished his bowl of rice and was full.
He glanced at Chen Fangli, who had been trying to stop him from speaking but had been talking nonstop herself, and shook his head.
Chu Dexi took a few bites and then refused to eat anymore, putting a piece of cured meat in his mouth and chewing it haphazardly.
He chews it up and spits it out, refusing to eat it.
After finishing their meal, Chu Fu cleared the table, while Chen Fangli prepared to take Shen Xuewei and Chen Xuewei back to the county by car.
Xu Yue looked left and right, and finally reminded her, "Auntie, we drove back."
Chen Fangli was taken aback. "Drove back? Just the two of you? Who drove?"
"Auntie, I was driving."
Chen Fangli's expression gradually turned sour. Not wanting to criticize Xu Yue, an outsider, she turned her gaze to Shen Xuewei.
Shen Xuewei shrank her neck, realizing something was wrong.
really……
"Weiwei, come back to my room with me for a moment, I have something to tell you."
Xu Yue realized something was wrong, gave Shen Xuewei a look that said "good luck," and turned her head to the side, pretending not to see it.
Shen Xuewei slumped down and slowly followed Chen Fangli back to her room.
As soon as the door closed, Chen Fangli gave him a scolding.
"Weiwei, how old are you two? You dare to drive back by yourselves? Are you crazy? Huh?"
"Look at you, even if you wanted to come back, you could have waited for a bus. Your friend is still in his first year of high school, right? He doesn't even have a driver's license. Aren't you playing with your lives? What if something happens..."
This was the first time Shen Xuewei had ever seen Chen Fangli so angry, and she didn't dare to say a word in rebuttal.
Only after Chen Fangli finished speaking did she seize the opportunity to admit her mistake.
"I'm sorry, Auntie, I was wrong, I'll never do it again."
Chen Fangli looked at Shen Xuewei's lowered head, her whole body looking like a listless little grass, and finally couldn't bear to say anything more to her.
Ultimately, if she hadn't appeared in time and pushed them into the nearby field...
Realizing that her tone had been too harsh, she softened her voice and apologized to Shen Xuewei.
"I'm sorry, Weiwei. I was too emotional just now. I shouldn't have scolded you. Can you forgive me?"
Shen Xuewei looked up and, seeing that she really didn't intend to scold her anymore, smiled and threw herself into her arms.
"Yes, it wasn't Auntie's fault, I forgive you."
Shen Xuewei understood her feelings.
After all, what parent would remain indifferent to the fact that two teenagers drove home without a license for over an hour?
Chen Fangli is already quite peaceful and stable.
After Shen Xuewei assured her that it would never happen again, this matter was completely over.
After opening the door and entering the living room, the two of them resumed their friendly demeanor.
"Alright, you guys sit at home for now. I'll go find your Uncle Tang and see if he's free to help with the driving."
There are very few four-wheeled vehicles in the village, and naturally, very few people have driver's licenses.
Tang Jiangang was one of the few people in the village who had a driver's license and had a good relationship with the Chu family.
After Chen Fangli finished speaking, she hurriedly walked towards the Tang family's house.
Xu Yue craned her neck to look outside and saw that Chen Fangli's figure had already walked away. She then moved her stool to Chen Xuewei's side.
"Hey, Weiwei, did you just get yelled at?"
Shen Xuewei nodded quietly, "He just cursed a little, but it's all over now. By the way..."
"Thank you so much this time. I'll treat you to dinner this weekend."
Xu Yue helped her a lot this time, so she should at least treat her to a meal to show her appreciation.
