Huo Chen, who was stubborn and refused to admit defeat all his life, still couldn't make a decent fish even after Changsheng was beaten and Aunt Chi and the others returned.
Chi Tang urged him to eat first: "Everyone has their own expertise."
"Chen Yi, eat first."
"Exactly, if we can't make it right today, we can make it again tomorrow." Xingxing didn't understand.
What's the big deal about a lump of mud?
Little Lockhead whispered softly, "Maybe it's because Auntie praised me for my skill in sculpting, and said I'm amazing."
Others: ...
"Seriously, Chenyi? You're really going to get worked up about this?" Xingxing was speechless.
Aunt Chi and the others didn't think much of it, they just laughed and teased, "Chen Yi still loves Tang Tang so much, he wants to give Tang Tang the best of everything."
Little Fifth Brother was staring intently at Huo Chenyi.
Why did he feel that this kid had ulterior motives?
But this kid is only ten years old, and his sister is only five. Is he thinking something lewd?
"It's okay, I just want to get it done."
Although Huo Chenyi's hands were covered in mud, apart from his hands, there wasn't a single mud spot on his entire body.
This obsession with cleanliness is truly something else.
“We should eat first.” Chi Tang frowned.
Why is my wife so stubborn?
Xingxing understood him best and knew that Huo Chenyi wouldn't listen to reason at this point, so she simply stopped trying.
"Alright, let him be. Tell the kitchen to keep the food ready; he can eat it whenever he's done cooking."
Xingxing could tell at a glance that Huo Chenyi was just being stubborn.
Seeing Huo Chenyi's serious expression, Chi Tang said nothing more.
"Grandma, someone has come from outside. They say they are our new neighbor who moved in next door. They know An'an and learned that An'an was injured, so they came to visit."
Shiro's voice rang out from outside.
Aunt Chi was somewhat surprised: "Who is it?"
They did know that new neighbors had moved in next door, but they were too busy with An'an and Changsheng's affairs and then went out to buy land to keep track of it.
Chi Tang knew this, so she said, "It's Shen Nanxun from the Yongchang Earl's Mansion, the young master who helped save An'an back then."
"Ah, Young Master Shen? Please come in quickly."
The Chi family members were overjoyed and ran out to prepare to welcome him.
That person is my benefactor.
How can we be negligent?
Chi Tang followed slowly behind, preparing to catch up.
Unexpectedly, Huo Chenyi suddenly said, "Tangtang, I want to change my clothes. Do you have any clothes for me at home?"
"Oh? Yes, there is. Come on, I'll take you there."
Chi Tang said without any hesitation.
It's just a bit strange. How come someone who wouldn't budge no matter how much they were called suddenly agreed?
A man's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea.
Huo Chenyi concealed the starlight in his eyes and followed Chi Tang.
The Chi family bought a large courtyard this time, and specially reserved a small courtyard for Huo Chenyi.
Although it is small, it has bedrooms, guest rooms, and a flower room.
Tian Niangzi also kept cleaning.
“Look, this wardrobe is full of your outfits. Every year when the seasons change, when Mom and Dad buy clothes for us, they’ll prepare two sets for you and Xingxing.”
Because they didn't know when Xingxing and Huo Chenyi would return, they prepared every quarter.
The dimensions were also estimated.
"Tangtang, help me pick out an outfit," Huo Chenyi said softly, his eyes lowered.
At the same time, he took Chi Tang's chubby little hand and tickled her palm.
Chi Tang immediately giggled and ran to the front to pick out a lake-blue long gown.
The color is clean and clear, almost ethereal.
Chi Tang was the one who chose it, thinking that Huo Chen would look good in it.
“Brother Chenyi, you’ll definitely look good in this.” Chi Tang pointed at the clothes and said as if showing off a treasure, “I was the one who picked out these clothes.”
Huo Chenyi's gaze suddenly turned sharp, startling Chi Tang.
Huo Chenyi stretched out his slender fingers, picked up the clothes, and asked casually, "Why doesn't Tangtang call me wife anymore?"
“We’re both grown up now, we can’t call each other that anymore.”
Chi Tang shook her head and said.
Previously, her wisdom was sometimes present and sometimes absent; in moments of confusion, she would occasionally revert to being like a true child.
That's why he would casually call someone his wife.
She rarely does that now, so she's still spoiled by her parents and brothers and often acts like a child, but she won't do things like that anymore.
Huo Chen felt a chill in his heart, a deep, indescribable discomfort.
He felt as if something particularly precious and unique no longer belonged to him.
"Go change, Brother Chenyi. I'll wait for you outside."
Chi Tang, being sensible, ran out.
With no one around, Huo Chen no longer concealed his true feelings; his cold gaze was incredibly sharp.
It felt as if there wasn't a trace of warmth in his entire body.
He sneered, changed his clothes, and went out.
Chi Tang was waiting for him outside. When she saw him come out, she picked a small yellow flower from somewhere and presented it to him like a precious treasure, calling out:
"Brother Chenyi, let me put it on you."
She didn't know if it was just psychological, but she always felt that the vegetables and fruits she grew in her small courtyard tasted better.
She washed and ate the small cucumber with its flower and thorns still on top, but didn't want to throw away the little yellow flower.
"Do all the handsome guys have this little yellow flower?" Huo Chen asked.
Chi Tang blinked: "No."
There's no one else here.
Huo Chenyi's expression brightened slightly, and then he asked, "You only gave me this, which means that I'm not an ordinary little brother to you, so Tangtang, you should still call me wife."
