By early April, spring was in full bloom everywhere.
When Song Anmin wasn't busy at the factory, he would study to prepare for the college entrance examination. He bought all the books according to the list compiled by his high school teacher.
None of the younger generation in the Song family are not smart; it's just that the third son used all his intelligence to cheat and sly. It's not too late for him to start studying seriously now.
Song Jianmin was amazed by his third brother's earnestness in studying.
He patted Song Anmin on the shoulder: "Third Brother, you'll definitely get into university!"
Song Anmin glanced at him and said, "Thank you."
Song Jianmin coughed lightly and said, "But could you please wash the dishes we just ate from?"
Song Anmin: "..."
Song Jianmin cooked tonight. Song Anmin finished eating first and then went inside to read, telling Lao Wu to finish eating before calling him.
Song Anmin put down his pen and went to the kitchen.
Song Jianmin followed behind him.
"Third Brother, I didn't mean to rush you. It's just that you said before that whoever cooks, the other person washes the dishes. I'm just following the rules—"
"Fifth brother, why are you dawdling?"
Song Jianmin touched his nose. "I was just afraid you'd think I was deliberately interfering with your studies."
Song Anmin: "I'm truly impressed by you."
Song Jianmin chuckled, "Third Brother, remember to take out the trash after you wash the dishes."
"Get out! Get out! Get out!"
Song Anmin washed the dishes quickly, swept the floor in a few moments, and then went out with the trash.
When spring arrives, everything is full of springtime charm.
When the third son passed by the Song family, Xu Guiying and Aunt Wang were each holding a child in their arms.
Song Muchuan and Song Zhiyin are over ten months old. Besides the Song family, the twins also recognize Xu Songyuan, as well as the third and fifth children.
Song Anmin put down the trash, chuckled, and deliberately made a face to tease Song Zhiyin, "Little Zhiyin, Uncle's here, hee hee hee~"
Xu Guiying was speechless: "Third brother, how old are you? Don't scare Zhiyin."
Song Anmin: "Mom, no, look how happy Zhiyin is. She's not scared at all, is she? Zhiyin, come and call Uncle San."
Seeing Song Anmin's hand about to touch Song Zhiyin, Xu Guiying dodged to the side, "Get lost! You brat, don't touch her with the hand that just picked up the trash."
Song Anmin felt embarrassed and put his hands behind his back. "Then I'll go throw out the trash first."
However, after the third brother went out, he also went to other places.
After throwing away the trash, Song Anmin was about to buy some fruit to take home when he suddenly saw Wang Ya talking to a woman across the street.
Song Anmin couldn't see the person's back clearly and couldn't determine their age.
The two seemed to be arguing.
The woman left quickly.
Song Anmin crossed the road and called out to Wang Ya, "Wang Ya, what are you doing here?"
Wang Ya quickly wiped her eyes. "It's nothing, I was just passing by. What about you?"
Song Anmin chuckled, "Hey, I just came out to throw out the trash and bought some fruit, and then I saw you standing here."
Song Anmin seemed oblivious to anything, "Why are your eyes red?"
"Oh, the wind blew sand in."
Song Anmin smiled and said, "That's right, it's been windy these past few days. By the way, have you eaten yet? I'm craving some barbecue skewers."
Wang Ya: "Let's go, I haven't eaten yet, I'm going to have two bowls of fried rice with eggs today."
"Okay, the egg is mine!"
Throughout the journey, Wang Ya behaved no differently than usual.
Song Anmin sighed silently to himself.
Wang Ya: "I haven't seen you for a while. Is your factory very busy?"
Song Anmin: "No, I'm reading a book."
Wang Ya recalled the time when the female teacher came to the institute to deliver the book list.
"Keep going! You can definitely pass the exam!"
Song Anmin: "Thank you for the comforting words. I'll try my best."
The two passed by Phoenix Pavilion but did not go in.
Mao Cheng caught a glimpse of the two figures and whispered to Xu Songyuan, "I just saw Third Brother and Officer Wang walk into the night market!"
Xu Songyuan clicked his tongue: "Go away, stop gossiping!"
Mao Cheng chuckled.
Third Brother and Officer Wang got along well, so from now on Phoenix Pavilion will be protected by the police station. Let's see who dares to cause trouble!
It was the busiest time for the barbecue stall, and Song Anmin and his companion waited for a while before they finally got an empty table.
By the time the food was served, Wang Ya was starving! The owner had prepared fried rice with eggs first.
"Eat quickly."
Wang Ya first ate a plate of egg fried rice, picking at it as she ate.
Song Anmin simply picked up another bowl and started picking out the eggs.
Wang Ya's frustration subsided somewhat after all the skewers were served.
Watching Wang Ya eat meat with gusto, Song Anmin felt a slight sense of relief for some reason.
"Eat slowly, don't choke."
Song Anmin pushed the bowl he had chosen in front of Wang Ya, and then picked up the small bowl and began to eat the eggs.
"Wang Ya, the meals at your institute are so irregular every day, you need to be careful about your health."
"It's alright, we have a cafeteria, it's just that I sometimes crave food from outside."
The cafeteria aunties cook delicious food, but since it's the same dishes over and over again, Wang Ya can't eat much of it anymore.
"Then prepare some food in the office later, so you can have something to eat first."
Wang Ya couldn't help but laugh when she saw Song Anmin explaining the matter so seriously. "Song Anmin, very few men would act like you."
Song Anmin's ears burned. "Don't compare me to others! They're all stinky men!"
Wang Ya laughed even harder and gave Song Anmin a thumbs up.
Seeing her smile, Song Anmin smiled too, and casually asked, "By the way, have you had any cases at your station lately?"
"What's wrong?"
"It's for eating with rice."
"No, I have to protect people's privacy." Wang Ya took a bite of meat, chewed it twice, and swallowed. "What about your factory?"
"There's nothing fun in the factory. Oh, by the way, I have a pair of twins, a boy and a girl. I'll bring them to see you next time. They're so cute."
"I heard my master mention it, it's your second brother's?"
Song Anmin hummed in agreement. "Who told your master that? My dad?"
"It looks like your grandma."
