"How long are you going to stay?" Xiao Jie asked with a stiff face.
He really couldn't understand these people. He clearly had no feelings for them, and this was his uncle's home, which had nothing to do with them. Why were they staying here?
Not only was he tired from traveling such a long distance, but he also caused a lot of inconvenience to his uncle's family.
When Fang Liufu heard Xiaojie say that, his face immediately fell, "Hey! Are you kidding me for being in the way?"
"Your grandparents are just thinking about you and are worried about you. They want to come and see you! They traveled such a long way to see you at their age. Do you still have a conscience when you talk to them like this?"
At this point, Xiaojie's grandmother was already wiping her tears with her sleeves.
Cheng Jingmo quickly explained, "Brother Fang, you misunderstood. Xiaojie didn't mean that."
He then said to Xiaojie's grandmother, "Auntie, don't take it personally. Xiaojie isn't very good at talking. He just wants to know how many days you have left and whether he can still see you when he comes back this weekend."
Fang Liufu added, "We came here with you because we were worried about you traveling so far. We didn't mean to cause you any trouble, but we thought it would be a good idea to let you see the children more."
At this point, Cheng Jingmo could only express his understanding. "If the old man wants Xiaojie to stay at home for a few more days, Xiaojie and I have to go to class tomorrow and can't accompany you. You can go around the neighborhood by yourselves."
Cheng Jingmo winked at Xiaojie, and the two of them went upstairs and into the room.
After closing the door, Cheng Jingmo said, "Xiao Jie, let's go to class tomorrow. It's not easy for your family to come and see you, so let them stay at home for two more days."
Xiao Jie said dissatisfiedly: "I think they just come here to eat and drink!"
Cheng Jingmo said, "We don't need to worry about food at home. If they want to stay, they can stay for a few days."
Cheng Jingmo and Xiaojie went to school early the next morning and did not return home until Saturday afternoon. These relatives of the Fang family were still at home.
Maybe it's because I've been at home for a few days and have gotten familiar with the place.
When Cheng Jingmo and his friends returned home, Xiaojie's grandparents and uncle were sitting cross-legged on the sofa, eating melon seeds and chatting, with melon seed shells scattered all over the floor.
Xiaojie's uncle was leaning on the sofa and fell asleep, snoring. Xiaojie's cousin was playing with Anan's toys.
"Uncle Xiaojie, you're back." Xiaojie's grandmother saw them first. She wiped the white foam from the corner of her mouth from cracking melon seeds with the back of her hand and greeted them with a smile.
Looking at the dirty floor, Cheng Jingmo couldn't help but want to sweep and mop the floor and clean it up.
But if he did that, he would be embarrassing these people in the Fang family. He forcibly controlled his hands and forced a smile, "Well, I'm back."
Xiaojie's cousin was sitting on the ground playing with two children. After hearing the sound, she turned her head and looked. When she saw Yu Xiangyang, her eyes lit up, and then she turned back shyly.
As soon as An An and Ke Ke saw them coming back, they ran over. Ke Ke hugged Cheng Jingmo's legs and said, "Dad."
An An hugged Yu Xiangyang's legs and said, "Uncle, I want to go out and play."
After that incident, An An and Ke Ke could only play in the compound. They would only be taken out when Cheng Jingmo and Yu Xiangyang were at home.
Yu Xiangyang looked at the house full of people and the mess, and he didn't want to stay at home either. He bent down and picked up An An, "After dinner, uncle will take you out."
Fang Liufu was startled awake when he heard the voices. He opened his eyes and looked around. "Ah, his uncle, you guys are back."
The people from the Fang family quickly squeezed together and made some sofas for Cheng Jingmo and the others to sit down.
Cheng Jingmo and the others didn't want to sit either.
Cheng Jingmo said, "I'll go to the kitchen and take a look."
Yu Xiangyang: "I'm taking the kids to play in the yard."
The three children followed Yu Xiangyang to the yard, and Cheng Jingmo went into the kitchen.
Lin Yunyi came home from get off work early and helped in the kitchen. It seemed that she didn't want to stay in the living room.
Seeing Cheng Jingmo come in, Xiao Jiang complained and explained, "Comrade Cheng, it's not that I don't clean, it's just that it's dirty again after I cleaned it. How can you eat melon seeds and spit them on the ground casually?"
Everyone in the family knows that Cheng Jingmo loves cleanliness and can't stand any dirt.
The nanny helped explain, "That's true! It's so unhygienic! Just the day before yesterday, I told them to take a shower and change their clothes, but they said they changed into clean clothes when they came, so they weren't dirty. I don't even dare let them hold the baby."
Cheng Jingmo couldn't say anything to the people in the Fang family, so he could only say, "Forget it if you don't want to wash it. Don't buy melon seeds from now on."
"We didn't buy any," Xiao Jiang said. "They bought some for themselves."
The nanny continued, "They are really good eaters. They eat two pots of rice for every meal and can finish any dish."
In the past, Xiao Jiang had to cook by herself, but now there are so many people from the Fang family, and they eat so much, that even the nanny of the children has to help with cooking.
"And they don't flush the toilet even after using it!"
“······”
Xiao Jiang and the nanny complained about these people one by one.
Lin Yunyi lowered her voice and asked, "Jing Mo, when will they go back?"
Cheng Jingmo said awkwardly, "I don't know either. I'll ask during dinner."
At worst, I can buy them train tickets and send them on the train.
There were not enough seats for so many people to eat. Lin Yunyi, Xiao Jiang, the nanny, and the three children ate in the kitchen, while the others squeezed together at a table.
The Fang family ate very slowly during the first half of the meal.
Cheng Jingmo and Song Huaiqian had eaten several meals with them and knew that the Fang family was waiting for them to put down their chopsticks so that they could start eating.
The three of them didn't eat much, but ate quickly, then put down their chopsticks and said, "We're full, you guys take your time."
The Fang family began their big cleanup, with plates of food passing from one person to another.
When it was Fang Junyan's turn, she secretly glanced at Yu Xiangyang and said weakly, "I don't want it, I'm full!"
"Why are you full today?" Fang Liufu was surprised.
When he saw Fang Junyan lowering her head with her ears red, he guessed 70% of the answer.
Yu Xiangyang and Cheng Jingmo, two straight men, of course didn't pay attention. They didn't even remember what Fang Junyan looked like.
An An and Coco were full and came out of the kitchen.
"Uncle will take you out to play."
Yu Xiangyang took An An out of the house, and Fang Junyan raised her head and picked up a few pieces of food with her chopsticks.
"Dad, let's go hug the rabbit." Keke asked Cheng Jingmo to go see the rabbit again.
Fang Liucai's mouth was full of food, and he was still chewing the food. He said incoherently: "The rabbit can be killed and eaten. If it is kept for meat, it will become old!"
Keke got angry all of a sudden, pouted, and said angrily, "No one can kill them and eat them!"
When she was angry, she didn't look intimidating at all, but rather looked even more adorable.
Fang Liucai laughed, "You little bright light, you have quite a temper."
Coco has always been bothered by the fact that she is bald. She only reluctantly accepts it when her family members praise her for looking good with a bald head.
Now that people call me Little Bright Light, I get so angry that I start crying.
