Chapter 16: The Vain Drama Queen 16: No Cheating...
Yan Mi took the envelope into the house curiously. Although he was curious, he did not open the envelope.
Chen Lixu went to work in the fields and probably won't be back until noon.
When Chen Lixu came back, he saw Yan Mi and Chen Xiaobao sitting around the table, their eyes fixed on the table, and there seemed to be something on the table.
"What are you looking at?" Chen Lixu asked with a smile.
"Someone delivered your letter today. We didn't open it and waited for you to come back to read it." Yan Mi said.
Chen Lixu washed himself first, then walked over to Yan Mi and asked, "Why don't you open the door and wait for me to come back?"
"I can't read." Yan Mi said confidently. She couldn't understand it even if she opened it without knowing how to read.
Not to mention Chen Xiaobao, he is still young and can't even write, let alone read a letter.
Yan Mi touched the envelope and thought there might be something else inside besides the letter.
"Open it quickly and take a look. There must be something else inside. I just touched it." Yan Mi urged. She felt that there might be money in the envelope.
Chen Lixu opened the letter and immediately laughed when he saw what was inside.
"What did it say? Who sent it to you?" Yan Mi moved closer curiously. Although she could understand it, the original owner had never been to school and couldn't understand it.
She glanced at the letter and asked Chen Lixu to speak quickly.
"Do you remember that I mailed a letter when I went to the city before?" Chen Lixu said.
"I remember. What happened? Who did you send it to?" Yan Mi was curious.
She had only watched the part about the original owner. She had not yet learned about Chen Lixu's perspective. All the information she knew about him was what the original owner heard later.
"This is sent to my comrade-in-arms. He has now written back saying that he has found a job for me. The money here is for the travel expenses there." Chen Lixu handed the money to Yan Mi.
Yan Mi took it happily and counted it carefully, "There are two hundred yuan. Are you, my comrade, very rich?"
Yan Mi's eyes lit up.
Chen Lixu realized something, put the letter in his pocket, and then said to Chen Xiaobao: "Xiaobao, go out and play outside. Daddy has something to tell your mom."
Chen Xiaobao was very obedient and didn't ask why. He just walked out with his short legs.
Yan Mi took a step back, but Chen Lixu's pressure was strong. "You are not planning to take advantage of my comrades, are you? You can only think of me in your heart, not others."
"Yeah, yeah." Yan Mi nodded quickly, "I just envy those rich people. I didn't say I like them. Is it okay to envy them?"
"Okay, but if you really dare to cheat, you'll never be able to get out of bed again," said Chen Lixu.
Yan Mi turned her head and pushed Chen Lixu away. "When I have the chance to go to a big city and find a rich man, I'll dump you."
Chen Lixu put his arm around Yan Mi's waist, holding her close to him. Yan Mi could feel the heat of Chen Lixu's body. Chen Lixu lowered his head and said in Yan Mi's ear with a hint of warning: "I don't want to hear this kind of words a second time. Don't say it again, okay, honey?"
"I know, I know, let me go." Yan Mi struggled, and his thin white arms touched Chen Lixu's body, and the places where they touched felt faintly hot.
"I'll let you go this time." Chen Lixu restrained himself and let Yan Mi go.
He was afraid that if Yan Mi continued like this, he would lose control of himself.
Xiaobao secretly watched at the door, and only felt relieved when he saw that his parents were not arguing.
Since his comrades said there was no rush, Chen Lixu was not in a hurry to leave either.
There are still many things to deal with at home, and no one comes to harvest the crops in the fields.
He had to find a reliable person to help him, and that person was no other than Chen Aiguo.
Hearing Chen Li say that he was going to work in a big city, Chen Aiguo felt very impressed. "I knew at the time that you wouldn't stay here for long. I guessed right."
"It just so happens that I know someone like him. Now if I want to give Xiaobao and Yan Mi a better life, I have to go out and try my best." Chen Lixu also sighed.
"You are not that old. If you put so much pressure on yourself, you might end up being crushed." Chen Aiguo himself has two daughters and two sons. Although his family has been through hardship, the children have grown up safely, and the two younger ones are both studying.
"I'm already thirty." Time flies.
He was only 25 when he retired. Later he married Yan Mi, and then Xiaobao was born. Now Xiaobao is almost four years old.
"Don't worry, I'm here at home with the land you gave me, so my family is a little better off now." Chen Aiguo said.
After finishing these things, there was still a car at home, and Chen Lixu also planned to give the ownership of this car to Chen Aiguo. Fearing that Yan Mi would disagree, he deliberately chose to tell Yan Mi when he was being intimate with Yan Mi at night.
"Okay." Yan Mi agreed readily.
"..." Chen Lixu didn't expect Yan Mi to agree, so all the reasons he had prepared before were no longer useful.
"But there's a condition. When you make a lot of money in the future, you have to buy me a gasoline car. I don't want to ride a bicycle with you." When she thought about having a car in the future, she would be considered the most successful person in the village.
I must show off when the time comes.
"I promise you." Chen Lixu hugged Yan Mi and pressed him under him again.
On the day of departure, Chen Lixu was carrying a lot of things, Yan Mi had nothing in his hands, and Xiaobao was still carrying a few things.
The news of their departure spread throughout the village, and many people came to see them when they were leaving.
When she learned that the bicycle Chen Lixu bought was to be given to Chen Aiguo, Yan's mother in the crowd was so angry that her teeth were about to break.
After Yan Mi got married, she didn't think about her family at all. When her family needed a car, she gave the thing to a complete stranger.
Yan's mother looked at Yan Mi viciously. This time, Yan Mi would definitely die outside!
Chen Aiguo didn't think so much. He was pleasantly surprised at this moment. "Thank you!"
"You're welcome. Be sure to keep it well." Chen Lixu said.
When they arrived at the station, they bought tickets to Shanghai.
At first they need to take a long-distance bus and then transfer to another train.
As soon as Yan Mi got in the car, she smelled a particularly unpleasant odor, which almost made her vomit.
Fortunately, they had seats, so Yan Mi didn't have to stand and suffer.
Not to mention the hardships along the way, Yan Mi was in terrible shape when he arrived in the Magic City.
"I never want to take such a long car ride again." Yan Mi felt very uncomfortable.
"I told you to take some motion sickness medicine but you refused." Chen Lixu said unhappily.
"I just don't want to eat." Yan Mi was still childish.
"Mom, you can't talk to Dad like that. Dad is doing this for your own good." Xiaobao also saw that Yan Mi was upset, and he also advised Yan Mi to take medicine, but she didn't listen.
Yan Mi felt uncomfortable and didn't want to talk to them any more.
"Let's go sit down and rest for a while." Chen Lixu took Yan Mi to find a seat.
He asked Chen Xiaobao to keep an eye on Yan Mi while he searched around the station before finding the driver who was coming to pick them up.
The driver was very polite to him, and didn't look at him with any discrimination despite his tattered clothes. "Mr. Chen, right? Our husband asked me to take you to your residence. Where are your family members?"
"I'll go call them over, please wait." Chen Lixu went back and brought Yan Mi back.
The driver glanced at Yan Mi and immediately understood why Chen Lixu said in the letter that he must bring his family along.
The person was taken to his residence, which was a beautiful small villa.
"I'll help you move your luggage in. Mr. Yang is waiting for you inside," said the driver.
"Okay, thank you." Chen Lixu asked Yan Mi to hold his hand to prevent Yan Mi from rushing up to Xiao Yang when he saw her.
Xiao Yang's real name is Yang Chenyao. He used to be in the same unit with Chen Lixu, and they had a close friendship. Chen Lixu could be said to have saved Yang Chenyao's life.
Chen Lixu was a very capable man. If he had not retired, he would probably be an officer now. Yang Chenyao felt sorry when he learned that Chen Lixu was gone.
Later he also retired from the army.
Yan Mi walked into the small villa with Chen Lixu on his arm. They were dazzled by the sight. This house was so beautiful.
If only she could own a house like this.
"You're finally here. Do you know how long I've been waiting for you?" Yang Chenyao pounded his chest at Chen Lixu and turned his gaze to Yan Mi. "This is my sister-in-law, right? She's so beautiful. No wonder my brother Chen would rather give up fame and fortune to be with her."
This was pleasant to hear, and Yan Mi found it very useful.
"Stop talking so sweetly. My wife is tired. Is there a place for her to rest? Let her have a rest." Chen Lixu interrupted the greeting.
"Yes, yes, it's ready long ago." Yang Chenyao took them to the room.
After opening the door, they found that the room had been decorated and the luggage they brought was suddenly useless.
Yan Mi likes this European decoration style very much, not for any other reason, but because it looks very luxurious and wealthy.
She was already sleepy and didn't want to move as soon as she touched the bed. "I'm going to sleep. Don't disturb me while you discuss things."
Chen Xiaobao also said: "I want to sleep with my mother, goodbye dad."
After saying that, he closed the door.
"Hahaha, your status in the family is so low?" Yang Chenyao laughed.
"You don't understand because you're not married." Chen Lixu glanced at him. How could a single guy understand his happiness?
"Okay, okay, I don't understand. Let's go downstairs and talk." Seeing Chen Lixu like this, Yang Chenyao didn't want to get married.
As the two chatted, Yang Chenyao looked at Chen Lixu's clothes and said, "Your clothes are much more worn out than my sister-in-law's. How did my sister-in-law like you?"
"You know shit." Chen Lixu retorted.
"I'm saying that clothes make the man. If you dress more handsomely, I bet no other man will appear in my sister-in-law's eyes." When Yang Chenyao saw Chen Lixu's thoughtful look, he knew that he guessed right.
"Do you know what attracts women to men?" Yang Chenyao began to talk non-stop. "Appearance is definitely important. Sister-in-law has been with you for so long, do you know when you are the most handsome?"
