Chapter 65 Doubt - Back to 18, I became rich by spending money
When Wen Yan got home, she hurriedly asked Wen Yi to pack up quickly because she was going to start cooking!
Poor Wen Yi hadn't even had a chance to sit on the sofa or drink a sip of water before he was ordered to work. Well, the novelty of his sister coming back was enough for him now, and he was looking forward to her going to school quickly.
"Wen Yi! Hurry up, my parents will be back soon. Come over and help me peel the garlic when you're done."
Wen Yi lay on the sofa and said weakly, "I know."
He put the things that belonged in his parents' room there, packed up the snacks, put the melon seeds, peanuts and nuts on the coffee table in the living room, and quickly stuffed the refrigerator with the things that belonged in the refrigerator. Finally, he went into the kitchen to help peel garlic and wash vegetables. Wen Yi felt that he had taken on too much at such a young age.
Wen Mingxiu came back by bus today. When he got to the bottom of his building, he ran into Aunt Wang who lived downstairs. "Xiao Wen, you're back. Go home and take a look. You don't know. Wen Yan brought Wen Yi back with her today. I think they almost emptied the supermarket. They carried everything up and down the stairs two or three times. Are you having a party? You bought so many things!"
Wen Mingxiu didn't know how much they had bought today to make Aunt Wang downstairs say that, so he could only casually say, "Maybe you think it's a lot. Wen Yi must have been around his sister and bought a lot of snacks. Auntie, you continue playing, I'll go back and take a look."
The Wen family lived in an old residential complex without an elevator. As soon as he reached the third floor, Wen Mingxiu could smell the aroma of cooking. Following the scent, he returned to his home. As soon as he entered the house, he saw his son, his butt sticking out, peeling potatoes next to a trash can.
"Dad, you're back." Wen Yi didn't even raise his head. He knew it was his dad from the sound of footsteps. He had been completely defeated by his sister, one after another.
Wen Mingxiu nodded and looked around. He saw several boxes of mooncakes piled up at the door, the coffee table was full of fruits and dried fruits, there was an extra box of drinks and a box of milk, and there was nothing else. He said that the aunt downstairs must be exaggerating. Where did all those things come from?
"What did your sister take you to buy today? I think you are just counting on your sister to come back, and you indulge yourself when she comes back." Wen Mingxiu said to his son while taking off his shoes.
Wen Yi looked at his father and sighed, "Alas, if possible, I would rather not accompany my sister to go shopping. It's too terrible. I haven't rested since I came back."
Wen Mingxiu glared at him angrily, "Your sister is a girl and can't do heavy work. You're already complaining about being tired after doing such a small job. You're a grown man, but you're useless."
Wen Yi did not refute him, but nodded twice casually. Okay, you are right. You will know when you experience it later.
When Yu Qiu returned, he saw Wen Mingxiu standing at the door, glaring at his son. "What's going on? Why are you standing there?"
"This kid complains of being tired after helping his sister with some work. I was just talking to him." Wen Mingxiu turned around and diligently carried the bag for his wife and took out the slippers.
Yu Qiu took a look at the potatoes his son was scraping and thought, "Tsk, what a clumsy guy! He can't even scrape a potato properly."
Yu Qiu first went into the kitchen to look at the soup his daughter had cooked and the dishes she was frying in the pot. He stroked her hair and said, "My daughter is so kind. She cooked for us as soon as she got home, and it was such a rich meal. She's worked so hard."
"I'm not tired, not tired. Mom, change your clothes quickly. Dinner will be ready soon!" Wen Yan's last dish was ready soon, and the other dishes were covered on the side.
Wen Yi looked at the couple's backs as they entered the room. Tsk, you have no idea what my sister did today. You'll know when you see it.
When Yu Qiu entered the room first, he saw a pile of shopping bags on the floor, at least more than twenty of them. Wen Mingxiu came in later and asked his wife why she was standing at the door without moving. But when he came in and saw the things on the floor, he was also shocked!
The couple flipped through the clothes casually and saw that they were all bought for the two of them. They looked at each other and ran to Wen Yi's room. Sure enough, there was still a pile of clothes and a pile of snacks on the bed. Wen Yi hadn't had time to clean it up yet. Before he had time to think, he heard Wen Yi shouting, "Dad, Mom, dinner is ready!"
Even when they sat at the dinner table, the couple still hadn't recovered. Wen Mingxiu was thinking about buying so many things. Why did Wen Yan buy so many things for them? He didn't even think about buying some for himself. Yu Qiu was much more thoughtful. After Wen Yan finished serving the two of them, before Wen Mingxiu could say anything, he said directly, "Yanyan, you don't have much money on you, do you?"
She had almost looked through it. She could tell from the shopping bags that the clothes in the pile were not cheap. The cheap clothes had different packaging. There were also shoes in the pile of clothes, plus the ones in Wen Yi's room. She saw the new things in the kitchen when she just entered, and the vegetables and fruits she bought were not cheap either. All in all, it would cost at least 10,000 or 20,000 yuan, not to mention that this was the lowest. She also saw the cosmetics bag. Wen Yan thought she had never seen it before. In fact, the owner of the restaurant where she worked had bought it before, saying that it was recommended by someone else. She was reluctant to buy it herself, and she felt distressed for a long time before buying a set of basic lotion and milk, not to mention that Wen Yan also bought several big bags. The total amount was not small. She didn't even dare to calculate how much Wen Yan spent today.
The key thing she was afraid of was that Wen Yan was so beautiful, and she'd only been going to school for a month, and she was already spending so lavishly. She wondered if she'd learned bad habits. She'd seen the news reports, and the more Yu Qiu thought about it, the more she felt something was amiss. She knew her daughter well. If she had a 100,000 yuan scholarship, she definitely wouldn't spend most of it at once. Only when she had a considerable amount of money would she be willing to spend so much at once without feeling bad.
Wen Yan saw that her mother's expression was not right, and knew that she had spent too much today and was suspected of being a threat. She knew how smart her mother was. She had once gone out in the summer and secretly eaten a popsicle. Her mother knew at a glance that she had eaten something cold, and sometimes she could even tell what it tasted like.
She was annoyed but didn't show it. She had already thought of what to say but didn't explain it first. "Mom, don't think too much. Let's eat first. Look, I specially stewed pig's trotter soup that you like today. Drink a bowl quickly. I'll tell you the rest later. Don't worry. Don't you still believe that your daughter is definitely a good comrade with a good family background and a positive attitude?" He scooped a bowl of soup and placed it in front of his mother, looking at her and said.
Yu Qiu looked at his daughter and mostly believed what she said. He picked up the bowl and took a sip without saying anything else, but he still felt a little heavy in his heart.
The father and son watched the mother and daughter going back and forth, but they were too thick-skinned to notice anything. However, when they saw Yu Qiu pick up the bowl and drink the soup, they felt relieved and started to eat happily. Such a sumptuous meal would not taste good if it got cold.
