Chapter 15: The Vain Drama Queen 15: New Home
After resting in the hospital for a few days, Yan Mi received a notice from the doctor saying that he could go home.
During this period, Yan Mi's relationship with Chen Jiajia was very good, but before going back, Yan Mi still wanted to go shopping and buy some necessities.
They said they were buying necessities, but when Yan Mi got there, all he could see were the most expensive things.
Yan Mi even had a fight with Chen Jiajia because of this.
"Why do you always buy such flashy things?" Although Chen Jiajia's family is rich, she will not waste money like Yan Mi.
"I didn't buy anything flashy. I bought what I needed. If you don't know, don't talk nonsense." Yan Mi disagreed with Chen Jiajia's words.
"Look, what did you buy? A facial cleanser, a hair care product, and this. Why did you buy a small leather bag? Do you have room to carry it?" Chen Jiajia counted them one by one.
Yan Mi held these things tightly, "Why can't I use them? Are you jealous that I bought them and you didn't?"
Chen Jiajia was so angry that she laughed when she heard this. What did she mean by jealous of her?
"I don't want to buy it. I'm not as stupid as you." Chen Jiajia retorted.
"You are stupid! Everything I bought is the best, you just can't afford it." Yan Mi was not convinced, and she hated being called stupid the most.
Chen Lixu watched the two people quarreling, and there was no place to interrupt, so he could only stand there and listen to them quarreling.
Chen Xiaobao didn't dare to interrupt. He always felt that if he spoke now, his mother and Aunt Chen Jiajia would turn around and scold him.
So the father and son tacitly agreed not to get involved.
In the end, for some reason, Chen Jiajia actually went to buy a bag. She not only bought one for herself, but also bought a set of clothes for Yan Mi.
Yan Mi smiled happily holding the clothes.
After the purchase, Chen Jiajia finally calmed down as she looked at the dwindling money in her pocket.
"You won't ask me to return it to you, will you? You can't snatch things from a patient." Yan Mi held the clothes tightly.
Chen Jiajia rolled her eyes and didn't want to talk to Yan Mi anymore. "I bought it for you, and I'll ask for it back? Do you think I am you?"
"Hmph, I'm already satisfied with just getting a set of clothes." Yan Mi pretended not to understand what Chen Jiajia said.
Watching this development, Chen Lixu has not yet come to his senses.
Chen Lixu found Chen Jiajia privately and wanted to return the money to her, but she refused. "I don't want it. You can't spoil her like this anymore."
They all knew very well who she was.
"She had a hard life before, and we couldn't buy much in the village. This time, if she likes it, let's buy something." Chen Lixu was tolerant of Yan Mi.
"You are so rich? Let me tell you, if you don't take care of her, you may not be able to support her." Chen Jiajia's words were not exaggerated at all.
Yan Mi bought things worth hundreds of dollars today, and he only picked the expensive ones. How could anyone support Yan Mi just by doing the little work in the fields?
Chen Lixu also understood this principle, "I will find a way."
"You and your son can spoil her as much as you want!" Chen Jiajia said unhappily.
Chen Lixu sighed, "Let's talk about this later."
It’s still the same after all, and Chen Jiajia is too lazy to care about it.
When the family returned home, they rode their bikes, which made them quite a sensation in the village.
"Chen kid actually bought a bicycle? He's really rich!"
"Yan Mi was injured just now, and now he's buying a car. I guess it's his wife who wants to buy it again."
"Tsk tsk, kid Chen stole the show this time."
"I told you his family was rich, but you didn't believe me then. Now look what you've done. Yan Mi has taken it all."
Yan Mi would not know about these discussions.
It was also Chen Xiaobao’s first time riding in a car with his parents, and he was extremely happy.
Under Yan Mi's guidance, he also praised Chen Lixu loudly: "Dad, you are so awesome, you ride the bike so fast!"
After being praised by Chen Xiaobao, Chen Lixu was full of motivation and had no objection to buying a car.
I haven't been home for several days. When I came back, I saw that many things were covered with dust.
Chen Lixu carried the car into his yard and asked Yan Mi and Chen Xiaobao to sit aside while he went to clean up.
Yan Mi felt embarrassed watching Chen Lixu cleaning alone, so she said to Chen Xiaobao who was playing with stones nearby: "Xiaobao, go help Daddy clean up."
Chen Xiaobao agreed, walked over to Chen Lixu and said, "Dad, I'll help you clean up."
"Okay, you come and wipe those small stools." Chen Lixu assigned him a task.
Xiaobao ran over excitedly with a small rag and wiped it.
The rag soon became dirty, and he wanted to wash it clean, but he ran too fast and cunningly, and fell into the basin of water.
When Yan Mi saw this, he quickly asked Chen Lixu to carry the person out.
The child who was once clean is now dirty.
Seeing him like that, Yan Mi couldn't help but laugh, "Give him a bath and change his clothes quickly, the water is so dirty."
Chen Lixu had no choice but to put down what he was doing and go to boil some water.
The sun was strong at noon, so Yan Mi asked Chen Xiaobao to bask in the sun so that he wouldn't feel cold.
"Mom, that water tastes so bad." Chen Xiaobao was just frightened when he fell into the basin, but he didn't cry. Seeing Yan Mi laughing at him, he didn't get angry, and expressed his opinions obediently.
"That water is so dirty it must not taste good. If dad works harder in the future, mom will take you to a clean place to play in the water." Yan Mi said secretly to Chen Xiaobao.
Chen Xiaobao nodded, "Okay, then I'll ask Dad to work harder."
Yan Mi liked Chen Xiaobao's way of getting things done and gave him a thumbs up.
I took a bath in the yard. It was warm at noon and the yard door was closed, so no one else could see me.
Yan Mi closed his eyes and lay on the chair to bask in the sun.
When Yan Mi opened her eyes, she was already sleeping in bed.
It was probably Chen Lixu who carried her in.
She yawned, and when she went out, the outside had changed drastically.
Brand new wooden furniture was placed one by one, just the same as she had described to Chen Li before. Except for the walls and floor, she was quite satisfied with everything else.
"Awake?" Chen Lixu walked in from outside. He saw Yan Mi's eyes sweeping across the room. "All of these were delivered by Carpenter Chen this afternoon. They're all ready. Is there anything else you're not satisfied with?"
"Very satisfied, you are so nice!" Yan Mi was very moved. She hugged Chen Lixu and pouted, wanting to kiss him.
Chen Lixu showed a satisfied smile on his face, and he held Yan Mi's waist and kissed her deeply.
Fortunately, Chen Xiaobao was not outside. The two of them were intimate for half an hour before reluctantly parting.
"I'm so hungry, is there any food?" Yan Mi's stomach growled as he said this.
"I saved it for you." Chen Lixu took her to the kitchen.
…
The days passed quickly, and Yan Mi was spoiled by the whole family. They usually didn't dare to let her get tired, and after she was injured, they would not let her do anything.
It was not until the time to remove the stitches that Yan Mi realized that the scar on his hand would remain and would never disappear.
This made Yan Mi very sad, and her hands became so ugly.
In order to make up for Yan Mi, Chen Lixu agreed to buy some things for Yan Mi.
Yan Mi was too sad to buy anything.
"If my hands become ugly, will you still love me?" Yan Mi asked in a tearful voice.
Chen Lixu held her hand. If this wasn't outside, he would have kissed Yan Mi's wound. "I will love you forever, if it's you."
"I don't know if there is any way to remove these scars. They are really too ugly." Yan Mi didn't want to see her hands at all. She really hated them. A red scar did not conform to her aesthetic at all.
"I'll think of a solution." Chen Lixu promised solemnly.
Yan Mi pouted, "Forget it, there's definitely no way."
Seeing her like this, Chen Lixu could only let her digest it herself. Come with me to mail a letter.
Yan Mi nodded.
After returning home from the city, Chen Xiaobao waited for so long that all his friends who came to see him had already left.
"Mom and Dad, you're finally back." Chen Xiaobao hugged Yan Mi's legs and looked up at her.
Yan Mi forced a smile, "Xiaobao, thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard. Are you unhappy, Mom?" Chen Xiaobao was very sensitive to Yan Mi's emotions. He could sense her unhappiness the moment he saw her.
"No, Mom is very happy." How could Yan Mi say that she was unhappy?
Chen Xiaobao was very depressed and couldn't think of any way to comfort Yan Mi.
Chen Jiajia came the next day. In fact, she was invited by Chen Lixu to give Yan Mi some advice.
Chen Jiajia deliberately diverted Yan Mi's attention so that Yan Mi wouldn't pay attention to her hands.
Yan Mi felt much better.
"School will start in a few days, and I won't be able to contact you for a while. You have to take care of yourself. If someone comes to bother you again, remember to find Chen Lixu. Don't fight it yourself, okay?" After spending these days with Yan Mi, Chen Jiajia felt a little reluctant to leave her.
Others' interactions with her might be superficial, but Yan Mi is a true character. She will act like a spoiled child if she wants to, and she doesn't hide her shortcomings at all. Because she is too frank, she doesn't feel disgusted.
Sometimes she could learn something from Yan Mi that she didn't have, which could bring her a little inspiration and help her.
"School is about to start so soon? What should I do if you leave?" But all good things must come to an end, and Yan Mi could accept that.
"Yes, I go to school in Shanghai. It's a bit far from here, so I have to leave early. If you have the chance to come to Shanghai to find me in the future, I will take you to have fun there."
"Okay, then I must go to Shanghai to see you in the future." The two of them made an agreement.
After seeing Chen Jiajia off, Yan Mi started thinking about how to make money.
However, she has neither the capital to do business nor the physical strength to work, so if she wants to make money... she may have to give it to Chen Lixu.
Besides, according to the character in the original novel, he is not the kind of person who would work to earn money.
A month later, someone suddenly came to her house. When she opened the door, she found out it was a mail carrier. The person asked, "This letter is for Chen Lixu. Is this his home?"
