Chapter 211 Nothing tastes good
Chu De'an was feeling sullen and was about to complain about Shen Xuewei when a series of crackling sounds suddenly came from inside the room, immediately drawing everyone's attention.
It's unclear what conflict Chen Fangqiu and Chen Fangdong had, but the two men, their faces flushed, were wrestling.
While blocking and striking, Chen Fangdong shouted, "What, did I hit the nail on the head? What do you mean the money for this house was all paid by your family, and you didn't take a single penny from your grandfather? Who would believe that!"
"He's only been gone for less than three years, and your family already has the money to build a house. How come your family never had the money to build a house all these years ago?"
"Before he died, he must have secretly left you something, which is why you had the money to build this house!"
Chen Fangqiu was too lazy to waste words with him, and responded with punches that were even stronger than the last.
Chen Fangdong was young and impetuous, but Chen Fangqiu was younger and better at fighting, and always had the upper hand.
The crowd screamed and tried to rush forward to break up the fight.
Chen Fangyang, who was the most enthusiastic to break up the fight, was accidentally punched by Chen Fangqiu as soon as he went up.
It hit his nose, and blood gushed out.
He covered his nose, groaned as he lay down, still trying to break up the fight: "Stop...stop hitting me! My nose is bleeding, and it feels like it's been broken. Take me to the hospital first..."
The fight between Chen Fangqiu and Chen Fangdong ended with Chen Fangyang, who tried to break it up, ending up in the hospital.
After leaving the hospital, Chen Fangyang didn't go back to the Chen family home. Zhao Xiannan drove him back to the city.
The elderly couple wanted to go to the hospital with him, but Chen Fangyang refused to let them go, telling them to stay home and keep an eye on Chen Fangqiu, and not let him go out and beat people again.
Chen Fangqiu sobered up and sat by the fire pit with a sullen face.
He glanced at the elderly couple occasionally, wanting to ask them something, but was too embarrassed to speak. Finally, his gaze fell on Shen Xuewei.
Having just witnessed the power of her own uncle, Shen Xuewei cautiously retreated when she saw him looking over.
Chen Fangqiu beckoned to her with a stern face, "Come here."
Shen Xuewei shuddered and slowly walked towards him.
"What's wrong, Uncle?"
Chu De'an squatted on a small stool in the corner. Seeing Shen Xuewei's bitter face, he sensed something was wrong and quickly went to the door to pull Chen Fangli inside.
As Chen Fangli entered the room, she saw Shen Xuewei slowly walking towards Chen Fangqiu. She quickly stepped forward and separated Shen Xuewei and Chen Fangqiu.
"What do you want with Weiwei? What could she possibly know at such a young age?"
She looked down at Shen Xuewei and gently nudged her, "Weiwei, you and De'an go find Yuhong to play. Later, go home with your second aunt for a couple of days."
Shen Xuewei glanced at Chen Fangqiu, feeling uneasy about leaving Chen Fangli there.
Chen Fangli called out towards the door, and Chu De'an ran inside, then dragged Shen Xuewei out quickly.
"Sister, let's go find Aunt Yuhong to play."
Chen Fangqiu was speechless as he looked at the men's tense expressions.
He doesn't just fight anyone he sees. Chen Fangyang came to break up the fight, but he didn't see who it was and didn't have time to pull his fist back.
He called Shen Xuewei... just wanting her to call Chen Fangyang for him and ask how he was doing...
Shen Xuewei was taken to Wu Yuhong's house by Chu De'an.
He was talking to Wu Yuhong, but he was always absent-minded.
After only a dozen minutes, he hurriedly ran back to the Chen family home.
Back at the Chen family home, apart from the sighs of Grandpa Chen and Grandma Xi, the house was quiet.
Shen Xuewei leaned close to Chen Fangli and asked softly, "Second Aunt, are you alright?"
Chen Fangli brushed her wind-blown hair back, "It's nothing, your uncle just asked me to call your second uncle to ask how he is."
Shen Xuewei breathed a sigh of relief, then, remembering Chen Fangyang's exaggerated nosebleed earlier, she secretly glanced at Chen Fangqiu's room.
"Second Aunt, how is my second uncle?"
Chen Fangli sighed softly, "His nose is broken. He went into the operating room for surgery, and it will probably take a few weeks to recover."
Shen Xuewei looked at him with sympathy.
Her second uncle was really unlucky; he tried to break up the fight, but ended up getting hurt the most...
However, upon closer reflection, it seems that around this time in his previous life, Chen Fangyang and Chen Fangqiu had a fight that ended with Chen Fangyang falling into a coma.
Although the two didn't fight in this life, and Chen Fangqiu fought Chen Fangdong instead, Chen Fangyang still took this hit...
...Shen Xuewei felt that perhaps her second uncle was destined to suffer this calamity.
When Chen Fangli and her family were leaving, they asked Shen Xuewei to come along.
Shen Xuewei remembered that she was supposed to visit the Zheng family for the New Year the next day, so she declined.
Chu Fu gave Chu De'an a look, and Chu De'an went around behind Shen Xuewei and pushed her out.
"Come on, sis, stay at my house for one night. My dad will bring you back tomorrow. It won't interfere with your New Year's visit."
Chen Fangli also took her hand and walked out. "De'an is right. Your second aunt's husband will bring you back tomorrow. It won't interfere with your New Year's visit to your godfather's house. I've already told your maternal grandparents about it."
Seeing that they had all made up their minds, Shen Xuewei stopped resisting and followed them.
The family of three had come by bicycle, but now that Shen Xuewei was with them, the bicycles were difficult to ride, so they simply walked back slowly, chatting all the way.
After returning to Fuxing Village, the couple didn't keep the two of them confined, letting them go to the village to play with other children, and told them to come back for dinner around six o'clock.
Chu De'an cheered and called Shen Xuewei out. He played with the village children until after seven o'clock, and no matter how much Shen Xuewei urged him, he was unwilling to go home.
Shen Xuewei stood guard to the side and witnessed Chu Fu appear at the intersection with a feather duster in hand and a dark expression on his face...
She stayed at the Chu family's house for one night. The next day, after breakfast, Chu Fu rode his bicycle and took her back to the Chen family's house.
Grandma Xi had already packed the gifts to take to the Zheng family. Around 10 o'clock, she led Shen Xuewei toward the Zheng family.
Shen Xuewei saw Zheng Feng at the Zheng family home, whom she hadn't seen for more than half a year.
Zheng Feng, who had just entered the workforce, was still under the legal age, but he borrowed a relative's ID card to work in a factory, and he seemed much more composed.
He remained largely silent at the dinner table.
After lunch, I managed to chat with Shen Xuewei for a few minutes.
A little while later, some villagers of similar age came to invite him to play cards. He ignored Shen Xuewei and ran off to play cards with the other man.
After having lunch at the Zheng family's house, Shen Xuewei and Grandma Xi sat for another hour. There was another round of familiar polite refusals, and in the end, Grandma Xi accepted the things they had returned and left with Shen Xuewei.
After the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, it will be the sixth day.
Shen Xuewei packed her things early and waited by the roadside before boarding the bus to the county.
Chen Fanglan was so busy she barely had time to breathe, but she still asked Shen Xuewei what time her car was expected to arrive so she could pick her up at the county bus station.
After bringing Shen Xuewei home, she went out, leaving Shen Xuewei to make her own arrangements.
Shen Xuewei did not open her stock account, since it was still a market holiday and there was no need to.
She enjoyed good food and drinks in Luli County for a few days, but after Chen Fanglan took her to the hospital and she got braces, she felt that nothing tasted good anymore.
