Chapter 142 Both Childish and Mature
Chu De'an muttered from behind her, "That's right, Cheng Bo started it. I just couldn't stand him shooting my sister with that crappy gun."
Upon hearing that Shen Xuewei had been hit by Cheng Bo, Chu Fu hurriedly asked, "Where did he hit you?"
Shen Xuewei pointed to her slightly reddened forehead.
"It hit me on the head. Right here. If it had been a little off, it would have hit my eye, and I might have gone blind."
alright.
This situation sounds rather serious, and Chu Fu's face darkened.
Liyun's wife originally thought she was right and had a valid point.
Seeing Cheng Bo's guilty expression, she guessed that Shen Xuewei wasn't lying.
Chu Fu put down his chopsticks and looked at Li Yun and her sister-in-law with a forced smile.
Two minutes later, amidst Chu Fu's barrage of curses, Sister-in-law Liyun led Cheng Bo away in a disheveled state.
As he walked, he muttered resentfully, "They're just kids, they didn't even hit hard, did they have to curse like that?"
Chu Fu chased after her and yelled, "What? Your eyes are almost blind, and you still say you didn't hit hard enough? Why don't you let him gouge out your own eyes and see what happens?"
"If you dare to blind him, I'll apologize! Let him go ahead and blind him!"
The mother and son in front of them didn't say anything more.
After leaving Chu Fu's house, he jogged away.
The first time I saw Chu Fu and his sister cursing at each other, I stared at the not-so-tall figure at the door.
I felt that he suddenly seemed taller, with a particularly imposing and reliable appearance.
After Chu Fu finished cursing and kept the two people out of sight, he turned back to the dining table, picked up his chopsticks, and started eating again.
Chu De'an remained hidden behind Shen Xuewei.
Seeing that Chu Fu didn't seem to intend to punish him, he stuck his head out and asked, "Dad, aren't you going to discipline me?"
Chu Fu glanced at him. "If you want me to teach you a lesson, come stand in front of me. If not, just eat your food."
Upon hearing this, Chu De'an dashed back to his stool, shaking his head like a propeller.
"No, I don't want to."
Chu Fu placed a piece of green vegetable on his plate and urged, "If you don't want to, hurry up and eat!"
Looking at the clump of greens in the bowl, Chu De'an looked at it with some disdain.
Chu Fu looked up and asked, "Hmm?"
Chu De'an held the bowl and obediently ate the vegetables in it.
While eating, Shen Xuewei kept glancing at Chu Fu.
Her second aunt's husband had always been quiet and polite, but she never expected him to have this side to him.
Grandpa Chu sat next to Shen Xuewei and noticed that she kept glancing at Chu Fu, so he knew what she was thinking.
He laughed and said, "I didn't expect your second aunt's husband to know how to swear, did I?"
Shen Xuewei shook her head, holding the bowl.
Grandpa Chu sighed and recalled, "When your second aunt's husband was young, he was in poor health. His mother was worried that he would be bullied by the children in the village, so she taught him a lot of swear words."
“She passed away early, I have a soft heart, and De’an is in poor health. Back then, people often owed me wages, and I was too embarrassed to go to their homes to ask for them. It was your second aunt’s husband who went to their houses, made a scene, and even threatened to hang himself, and got the money back…”
“He was in poor health, but he was a shrew when it came to cursing people. Many people in the village had been cursed by him before.”
"Later, people thought that my father and I were not to be trifled with, so they didn't dare to bully us as much and would even talk to us nicely... I haven't seen your second aunt's husband like this in many years."
He looked at Chu Fu and praised, "Ah Fu's skill in cursing is as good as ever!"
Chu Fu felt a little embarrassed to have his past brought up in front of his two children.
"Dad, we're eating. Why are you talking nonsense with the kid?"
Grandpa Chu chuckled and said, "Alright, I won't say anymore."
Chu Fu looked at the two siblings, coughed lightly, and said, "Don't worry about what your grandfather is saying. He's just talking nonsense. I'm not the kind of person who likes to curse."
"...Anyway, don't follow my example."
Shen Xuewei nodded in unison, "Yes, Dad/Second Aunt's husband, you're right."
After lunch, Shen Xuewei and Chu De'an took a nap.
After waking up, Shen Xuewei didn't forget her promise to Tao Yuting. She rummaged through Tao Yuting's room and found some of her snacks before heading to Tao Yuting's house.
Chu De'an wanted to come along, so Shen Xuewei simply slipped him two yuan, successfully coaxing him to go play with his friends.
Tao Yuting's parents were not home, and she was alone at home.
She made milk tea powder for Shen Xuewei and then made herself a cup.
The two held their cups, sipping warm milk tea and snacking, occasionally sharing their campus life; time flew by.
Shen Xuewei sometimes felt that her condition was a bit strange.
She prides herself on having the soul of an adult, but in recent years, she has gradually assimilated with her friends and classmates, and has many topics to discuss with them.
However, she can also have a lot to talk about with adults.
My personality right now is... both childish and mature.
In short: she feels she is now a multifaceted person.
The next morning, Shen Xuewei packed some important items and was sent back to Xiaoli Village by Chu Fu.
The Chen family's house had already been built and decorated.
After the renovation was completed and the workers left, Chen Fangyang acted without consulting the authorities and bought all kinds of furniture and appliances from the county.
Two trucks arrived with a rumble, carrying goods. Chen Fangyang directed them to place the goods in the appropriate locations.
When Grandpa Chen and Grandma Xi arrived from the old house upon hearing the news, all kinds of furniture and appliances had already been unpacked and put away.
Grandma Xi was both happy and heartbroken to see so many things.
"You silly child, why didn't you tell the family before buying so much stuff? Why did you buy this bed? We still have the ones we have. Isn't this a waste of money?"
Chen Fangyang sat on the hard sofa with his legs crossed and his hands outstretched.
"Mom, we've already bought them, so let's just use them. If we don't use them at home, we can't return them, and all that money will just be wasted, right?"
Grandma Xi hesitated for a moment and asked, "You must have spent a lot of money buying these things. What if Fang'er gets angry when she finds out..."
Chen Fangyang said with a grin, "Oh, Mom, a lot of these were bought by Fang'er. She already knew."
"She said she would stay at home for a few days during the Chinese New Year this year, and she wouldn't feel comfortable if she didn't have enough things."
Upon hearing that Zhao Fang'er had asked her to buy something, Grandma Xi fell silent again.
Shen Xuewei was sent back to the Chen family by Chu Fu. Before she could even settle in, Chen Fangyang pulled her into the new house.
He led her up to the second floor, past the living room, and into the inner room, where they stood.
Chen Fangyang gestured with his chin, "Hey, this is the room for you. Take a look and see if you like it?"
Shen Xuewei pushed open the door and was taken aback by the bright, clean, and well-furnished room that greeted her.
Chen Fangyang leaned against the door, pointing to the things inside, "This bed was chosen by your second aunt and me, and this wardrobe..."
"It's a pity the room isn't big enough, otherwise I could have bought a bigger wardrobe... You girls all love buying clothes. When your second aunt is in a good mood, she buys several outfits at once, and there's no room for me in the wardrobe at home..."
"Although the wardrobe isn't big, I specially bought a good one for your desk. It's by the window, so the light is good, and you won't need to turn on the light when you do your homework in the room during the day..."
