Chapter 148: Chen Tang, the pen holder, speaks in a set way
Fan Yang's attitude towards her was also very strange. He ignored everyone else, but this woman, he took the initiative to greet.
The woman didn't explain anything, just talked and went home.
Chen Tang suddenly remembered the information He Xu gave her. There was a very special family in the compound. If it weren't for this family who had been taking care of the Fan family, Mrs. Fan would not be able to support her two children.
The family's surname is Xiang, and the head of the family is the driver who went on the mission with Fan Yang's father that year.
Shen Tang was not surprised that this family would take care of Mrs. Fan's family.
What surprised her was that the spy who worked as a repairman in the military region in his previous life also had the surname Xiang, with a single character in his name, Ming.
If it is not the same name or surname, then this person is most likely the spy in the previous life.
Chen Tang didn't rush to confirm, but lowered his head and asked Fan Yang: "I see you have a good impression of this aunt."
Fan Yang shrugged: "Whoever feeds me is a good person. Sister-in-law Xiang doesn't like us very much, but Uncle Xiang is okay."
Chen Tang: "Aunt Xiang is so kind that she even brings you food? But I think they can't even eat enough themselves."
Fan Yang pursed his lips and frowned: "You are such a gossipy person. Uncle Xiang was good friends with my father back then, so he just cares about us a little."
"But they didn't give us much. Uncle Xiang hasn't been on a mission since the incident with my dad. Maybe he was scared and became a repairman. The salary is only enough to feed his family. How can they have extra food for us?"
A favor is also a favor. His grandmother always told him to be polite. He would say hello to Aunt Xiang and Uncle Xiang when he saw them.
Forget about the rest.
None of them are good.
When we arrived at the Fan family, Grandma Fan and Fan Yang's sister Fan Ling were already waiting there.
Grandma Fan stood at the door and looked outside, with a somewhat anxious look on her face. Perhaps Fan Yang would have returned by this time on normal days, but was a little late today.
Fan Yang ran over with his lunch box and smiled: "Grandma, we're having meat today."
Grandma Fan frowned: "Where did the meat come from?"
Fan Yang pointed back and said, "They gave it to me."
Chen Tang and Su Xiaoxiao walked under the eaves, and Grandma Fan finally saw the two people clearly.
She still remembered Chen Tang. When she saw Chen Tang coming over again, her wrinkled face was a little tense. She didn't understand why they came again.
Chen Tang walked forward with a gentle smile on his face: "Grandma Fan, thanks to Xiaoyang's help today, otherwise all the money I had would have been stolen."
She took out malted milk and a bag of sugar and handed them to her: "Grandma Fan, take them. I didn't bring much last time, so I have to make up for it this time."
Teacher Tan would reimburse her for the money she spent during work, and Shen Tang didn't feel bad at all.
Grandma Fan quickly pushed the door out: "You're here, no need to buy anything..."
Chen Tang pretended to be angry: "You must accept it today. You don't know that Xiaoyang helped me get the money back like a little hero. If it weren't for him, I would still be crying now. I have never seen a child as brave as him."
Grandma Fan's vigilance was instantly relaxed, and she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth: "No way, Xiaoyang is just a little enthusiastic."
"He is not only enthusiastic, but also proactive, bold and smart. This kid is incredible."
Grandma Fan: "Come on, come on, come in and sit down. It's cold outside."
Look at this little girl, her hands are red from the cold.
Shen Tang helped Old Lady Fan walk inside, and with her sweet little mouth she praised Fan Yang from beginning to end.
"Grandma, let me tell you, Xiaoyang ran up in a flash, his speed is like a cheetah, our country's athletes didn't react as fast as him when they were young, he will definitely have a great future...
Moreover, he came back to me right after getting the money. I offered to treat him to a meal, but he refused, saying that he should not take advantage of a soldier and should not return the money. Oh, I wish my nephew was as smart as him..."
Grandma Fan was so delighted when she heard this that her mouth couldn't close. "As it should be, as it should be. This child just takes after his father. He has some minor flaws, but he's actually a good person..."
The old lady actually knew that there was some exaggeration in Chen Tang's words, but who wouldn't be attracted to a pretty and kind girl who always spoke sweet words?
Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help but give Chen Tang a thumbs up.
He really deserves to be called the pen holder.
He speaks in a very contradictory way. Look at the little bastard behind him, his face is red after listening to him.
Fan Yang did blush, and he wondered vaguely, was this the situation at that time?
This seems to be correct, but why does it sound different when she says it?
Seeing the female comrade put the food in her hands on the table, Fan Yang tightened his grip on the lunch box and couldn't help feeling a little guilty.
Is he pushing his luck a little too far?
She is so young and has probably only been working for a short time, so her salary should not be high.
If she spends too much money, won't she be beaten by the man at home when she returns home?
Thinking of that scene, Fan Yang clenched his hands slightly under his sleeves. If he had known earlier, he would not have bought so much.
The dishes she brought back were a little cold, so Grandma Fan heated them up again.
Chen Tang didn't know what the child standing behind her was thinking as she hesitated. While the food was heating up, she opened the can and made a bowl of malted milk for little Fan Ling to drink.
The little girl had never tasted something so delicious before. She leaned in Shen Tang's arms and drank from the small bowl for a long time.
The dishes were ready, and Chen Tang went over to pull Fan Yang over: "What are you thinking about? It's time to eat. Meat tastes better when it's hot."
Fan Ling, who had been following her, couldn't help swallowing her saliva when she smelled the aroma, and looked eagerly at the meat on the table and continued Chen Tang's words: "Yes, it tastes better when it's heated."
She had never eaten such delicious meat since she was a child.
Fan Yang felt a little awkward, but she still pulled him over and he sat down obediently. He coughed lightly and pretended to be calm: "I will pay you back later."
Chen Tang: "What else?"
"Food money."
Chen Tang couldn't help but smile and picked up a piece of braised pork for him: "No need to return it, I promised to treat you."
Fan Yang: “…”
This woman is really ungrateful. She doesn't even want the free money.
It was none of his business if he got beaten when he got home.
Thinking about all sorts of things, Fan Yang held his breath and stuffed the meat into his mouth.
The full of fat burst in his mouth, and he felt that he was completely conquered by the meat. He didn't want to think about anything else at this time, and only took his eyes away from the meat reluctantly after he was full.
Chen Tang and Su Xiaoxiao didn't eat much, so they could mix the remaining food with sweet potato steamed bread and have two more meals.
Grandma Fan poured water for the two of them. The water was freshly boiled by Fan Yang from the well. Chen Tang did not refuse to drink it like last time.
Fan Yang had always thought that she didn't drink the water last time because she disliked his family. When he saw her drinking from the bowl, he couldn't help but ask, "Why don't you dislike our family this time?"
He was still young, and he couldn't hide his emotions very well on his face.
Chen Tang saw what he was thinking and explained with a smile: "I just gave birth to a child and I am still in the breastfeeding stage. I am more careful about what I put into my mouth. The water you poured for me last time was from the kettle. The water was warm. I am not sure if you boiled it or not."
Fan Yang was shocked: "You've given birth to a child?"
It’s good to have a child. If you have a child, you won’t be beaten like those young aunts in the compound. It’s better to have a boy. Life will be more difficult if you have a girl.
He hesitated and wanted to ask her whether it was a boy or a girl, but then he heard Chen Tang say, "I got pregnant not long after we got married. It's a boy, nicknamed Xiao Atang. When he grows up, I'll bring him out to play with you guys."
Fan Yang felt slightly relieved, but after hearing the second half of her sentence, he couldn't help but pursed his lips.
Children playing with him?
Nor is there any fear that he will lead the child astray.
Chen Tang didn't notice what he was thinking, and asked casually: "By the way, Yang Cheng in your compound seems to be quite particular. How long has he been in your compound?"
