She bowed her head and continued eating, and Tang Zhinian didn’t ask anymore, nor did Tang Yuxin take the initiative to say anything.
By evening, Tang Zhinian discussed the matter with Ren Li, which was like opening a can of worms each time it was mentioned.
“I always disliked that young man, with his pretty-boy look, yet sly like a fox. Look at our honest Yuxin, do you think she’ll be tricked by him?”
Ren Li nearly choked on her own saliva.
She really wanted to say, Yuxin’s father, do you really know your daughter? That girl is a tricky one, not many in this world can deceive her. And once deceived, the consequences will be severe.
She felt Tang Zhinian should be hoping that Tang Yuxin was deceived by that man because he would quickly disappear from Yuxin’s life then. Of course, she preferred not to say this out loud.
After all, young people have to make their own decisions. They are already old.
No, she can’t consider herself old, her little Chengcheng was only two. She still needs to work hard to save up money for his future wife.
Chengcheng was asleep now, clutching his small fists, his chubby cheeks still full and round. Ren Li admired her son to no end, kissing his small face and even threatened to spank his little bottom. But in the end, she found herself loving him even more, thus leading Tang Zhinian not to worry about her actually spanking their son because she was all bark and no bite.
The construction team kept them busy until the Chinese New Year. Several tasks around the house were taken care of by Tang Yuxin and Zhang Xiangcao, including shopping for New Year goods, which were all done by those two women. Little Fatty was left at home under Sisi’s care. Sisi, a great nanny, was even more careful than Tang Yuxin.
Furthermore, it was cozy at home while outside it was too cold. Little Fatty never left the house and stayed home playing happily.
Meanwhile, Tang Yuxin and Zhang Xiangcao went out every day shopping for New Year supplies.
In fact, if one thinks about it, shopping is an enjoyment in itself.
If it was about finding a cure, she didn’t have the capacity.
She sealed the herbs she had prepared inside a big container and buried it under the old locust tree in the yard.
“Sis...” Chengcheng ran over, pulling on Tang Yuxin’s sleeve, “What is Sis doing?”
“Burying treasures here. We will dig it up next year for Chengcheng,” Tang Yuxin patted her brother’s small cheek. Time flew by so quickly. She hardly felt its passage, only to realize in a blink-of-an-eye that it was almost time to return to school.
She would be leaving soon, and by the next time she comes back, Chengcheng would be half a year older.
Chengcheng ran over, stomping a few times on the spot she had buried the container, turned around, and gave his sister a smile.
“Sis, it’s Chengcheng’s.”
“Yes,” Tang Yuxin nodded, “It’s Chengcheng’s. Sis made it for Chengcheng.”
She walked over and took her brother’s small chubby hand. “Let’s go wash our hands and then have some apple puree, okay?”
“Okay!” Chengcheng happily agreed, ready to follow his sister for some apple puree. The little guy loved meat and sweet food, resulting in his robust body. A kid who wasn’t picky with his food grew up fast.
When Tang Yuxin left, she chose to leave quietly, as always.
In her hand was a bank card, given by her father, which contained fifty thousand yuan for her next semester’s living expenses. Holding the card, she remained stunned.
Fifty thousand. Now, her monthly living expenses were fifty thousand yuan. She remembered in her last life, her monthly subsistence allowance was about two hundred yuan, just enough to cover meals. If she spent a bit more, she might not even have enough to eat, resorting to steamed buns and porridge everyday. Yet now, she had fifty thousand yuan for a semester’s worth of living expenses.
She shook her head and tucked the card into her bag. Whether she had fifty thousand or not, her lifestyle stayed the same. Just because she had money didn’t mean she would splurge. She chose clothes suitable for her, used skincare products she made herself, ate until she was full. This fifty thousand yuan, she wouldn’t be able to finish it. But, it could be used to buy some more furniture for her quadrangle house.
