Chapter 1558: Chapter 908: Hard to Speak Of?
"What?" After Luo Ye finished speaking, Xing Nong’s eyes widened, "Yu Miao must be out of her mind, right? Luoluo, you absolutely cannot help with this."
"I know, am I that foolish?" Luo Ye glared at her, looking helpless, "Qiu’er, am I that unprincipled in your eyes? Have you really thought about who I’m actually close to?"
Yaoguang laughed mischievously, "Luoluo, of course, you’re not foolish; it’s Qiu’er who often acts foolish."
"Hmph, be careful during Chinese New Year, I won’t come rescue you and leave you at the Zhan Family to be a punching bag!"
"Qiu’er, why do I feel like you’re convinced I will be disliked by the Zhan Family?" Yaoguang looked at Xing Nong, conflicted, "If you say it like that, is there any need for me to go back home with Zhan Hao?"
"I need to tell Zhan Hao about this," Luo Ye glanced at Xing Nong, "I believe, the Eldest Young Master Zhan will have a little reaction to this."
"Alright, alright, it’s all my fault. Can you please let it go?" Xing Nong anxiously pleaded for mercy.
"Wash my clothes for a month," Yaoguang proposed.
"Ten days!"
"No, one month!"
"Half a month!"
"No, one month!"
"Twenty days, how about that?" Xing Nong’s face contorted into a look of despair, "Washing clothes is the thing I least want to do, and you know it."
"It’s precisely because I know that I’m using it to penalize you," Yaoguang gleefully nodded her head, "Rarely do I get the chance to use you for manual labor; how could I let it pass? By the way, Luoluo, would you like to join in too?"
Luo Ye nodded, "Of course, mine needs to be washed for a month too."
"Ahhh... just kill me already!" Xing Nong collapsed onto the seat, "I might as well just give up on life..."
Yaoguang grinned, "Kill you? Then who will wash our clothes?"
"Forget it, if you don’t want to go to the Zhan Family, then don’t go; if Luoluo wants to tell Zhan Hao, let her tell him. Anyway, ultimately, I’m not the one getting hurt by this."
"Qiu’er, is this your honest thought?" Luo Ye’s voice turned serious.
"Of course... not!" Xing Nong jolted up, quickly sitting upright and chuckling, "How could I think like that? Alright, I’ll wash your clothes for a month. It’s just one month, not a year. By the way, is it starting from today?"
"In your dreams!" Luo Ye and Yaoguang said in unison.
"Then how should it be counted?" Xing Nong looked troubled, "After the New Year, we all have to go for internships, so how can I wash clothes for you both for a month?"
"Simple, every time we meet, wash them once, count by the number of times, and if you wash thirty times for us, it’s counted as qualified."
"Ah..." Mou Qiu’er collapsed onto the seat again, "We’re not training every day right now, the clothes don’t need to be washed daily. This isn’t washing your clothes for a month; it’s essentially for a year, right?"
"You lazy bum, your clothes need washing once every two weeks?" Luo Ye couldn’t help but roll her eyes at her, "Qiu’er, I can’t imagine if someday you got married to Lu Lu, what would you do about washing clothes and cooking?"
Xing Nong dismissively snorted, "That’s easy, hire a nanny."
"The warmth of a family includes occasionally cooking together, washing clothes; a wife who can’t do anything..." Luo Ye smacked her lips, "I’m worried... over time..."
Not waiting for Luo Ye to finish, Xing Nong interrupted angrily, "If he dares to find another woman, I won’t hesitate to castrate him!"
Luo Ye’s eyes showed a playful smile, "I was saying, over time, Lu Lu might turn into an all-rounded housewife; what are you thinking?"
"I..." While Luo Ye was driving, Xing Nong had no outlet for her frustration and ended up mock-punching Yaoguang all around, "I’ll let you two gang up to bully me, the two troublesome ones, the two heartless ones..."
The three chatted and laughed along the way, made a ruckus, and by the time they arrived at Wen Mansion, the slight gloom in each of their hearts had practically dissipated.
As the car stopped, Ying Nuo happened to be pulling in with Luo Feng’s car.
After greeting each other, Luo Ye looked at Luo Feng, full of concern, "Brother, why have you lost weight again? Has Granny gone to her daughter’s place, and you have no food to eat?"
"Not at all," Luo Feng fondly ruffled his sister’s hair, "The way you describe it, making me sound so pitiful. I’m not thinner, I’m stronger.
Lately, I’ve been going to the countryside with Li Zejun, handling the greenhouse matters; I’ve been on my feet constantly, so I’m in better shape than before.
You look thinner, but actually, you’ve gained two pounds compared to before; if you don’t believe me, I’ll weigh you later to show you. Besides, the meals cooked by the neighbor Granny found are even tastier.
Ye’er, next time you visit, make sure to taste Aunt Yun’s cooking. The pancakes she makes, I bet you like them."
"Brother is talking about the usual boiled noodle strips, right?" Luo Ye pursed her lips, "No matter how delicious it is, just how tasty can it get?"
"Really, I’m not lying to you guys, Aunt Yun’s flatbread has a completely different flavor from what we normally eat," Luo Feng said, unable to help swallowing, "The thin slices of dough are both chewy and slick, with a few fragrant green onions floating on top. The taste of the soup is fresh and rich but not greasy. Anyway, you’ll know once you try it."
"Brother, you’re so pitiful!"
"Brother Feng, you’re so pitiful!"
"Brother Luo Feng, you’re so pitiful!"
The three almost said in unison.
Luo Feng had a speechless moment: "Forget it, I’m not saying anymore, wait until you get a chance to try it, then you can comment."
Meanwhile, Wen Bao had already come over, taking the bag from Luo Feng’s hand: "The old gentleman and lady have been hoping all the time." As soon as they hear this, everyone quickly sped up their steps.
Sure enough, Old Mrs. Wen’s eyes welled up with tears upon seeing Luo Feng. She lovingly cared for this grandson with genuine affection.
On the other hand, Mr. Wen was alright, sizing up Luo Feng while showing an appreciative look: "Xiao Feng has matured compared to before, the exercises these days haven’t been in vain."
"Grandma, don’t feel sorry for Brother anymore, he eats the flatbread made by others every day, it’s so tasty..." Luo Ye pulled Old Mrs. Wen, mimicking what Luo Feng just said, causing her tears that didn’t fall earlier to rush down eagerly, "Xiao Feng, my poor grandson, I’ll have Nanny Zhang make you something delicious soon, if you like eating flatbread, I’ll ask Nanny Zhang to make it for you..."
Luo Feng helplessly glared at Luo Ye: "Ye’er!"
"Hehe..." Luo Ye laughed triumphantly, "Grandma holding back tears is bad for her health, I did it on purpose to let her vent a bit."
Everyone had a speechless moment...
Mr. Wen waved his hand at Luo Feng: "Alright, Xiao Feng, go back to your room and freshen up, rest for a bit. When your uncle, aunt, brothers, and sisters come back, we’ll have fun together."
"Where did they all go?" After Luo Feng headed up, Luo Ye leaned beside Mr. Wen and asked.
Knowing she was asking about Old Master Wen and Wen Xue, Mr. Wen shook his head helplessly: "Wen Xue is sulking in the room, while your great-grandpa went to soak in the hot spring."
Luo Ye really didn’t know what to say, are there such shameless people in this world?
"Grandpa, are we really just going to let him mess around like this?" Luo Ye frowned, "Are we going to be kidnapped by him under the guise of family affection?"
"Of course not." Mr. Wen shook his head, "Don’t worry, Ye’er, he’ll definitely leave with Xiao Xue in less than two days."
"Grandpa, how can you be so confident?" Luo Ye examined Mr. Wen up and down with curiosity, "Could it be that something happened again that I don’t know about?"
"You’ll find out about this later." Mr. Wen laughed as he stood up, "After getting old, I get tired easily. I’ll go lie down for a bit, call me for dinner."
"Grandpa..." Now it was Luo Ye’s turn for a speechless moment, when has her grandpa ever gone to lie down for a rest before dinner?
"Really tired." As Mr. Wen walked on, he waved his hand, quickened his pace as well, clearly wanting to leave quickly, not giving Luo Ye a chance to interrogate.
"Grandma, what’s up with Grandpa?" Luo Ye asked Old Mrs. Wen in bewilderment, "What exactly happened for him to keep it from me?"
"It’s not about keeping it from you, he’s just embarrassed." Old Mrs. Wen smiled mysteriously, "Your grandpa has been upright all his life, and doing something that suddenly goes against his principles made him feel a little uncomfortable."
"Grandpa did something against his principles... What exactly is it?" Luo Ye’s curiosity spread rapidly like a wildfire, straightaway she ran behind her grandma, serving as her legwork in massaging her shoulders, "Grandma, tell us, after all, Star Manipulating Moonlight isn’t an outsider."
"You child, when did you become so clingy?" Old Mrs. Wen smiled helplessly, getting up, "Grandma’s tired too, I’ll go rest in the room for a bit."
"Grandma, you can’t do this..." Luo Ye grabbed her grandma’s arm, "You can’t treat me like this! I protest."
"Ye’er, I know about this, so let me tell you." After Wen Yu went downstairs, she smiled at Star Manipulating Moonlight, turning to Old Mrs. Wen, "Grandma, I’ll take them to my room to talk, alright?"
"Yes, you young ones go play together, this old lady won’t join." As she spoke, the old lady went briskly up the stairs.
"Is it that serious?" Luo Ye had a speechless moment, "Looking at Grandma and Grandpa like this, it’s as if they’ve done something extremely wrong to me and can’t bear to face me?"
"Of course not..." Wen Yu smiled softly, "As elders, they might just not know how to begin discussing the matter."
"Alright then, you tell us." Luo Ye stood up taking the lead to head to her room, "Let’s go to my room."
Yaoguang hesitated a bit: "Is it convenient for us to be together?"
"Of course it is, if it weren’t, Luoluo would have kicked us out earlier. She’s been her friend for so many years, don’t you know her personality?" Xing Nongbai said to Yaoguang, "Demon, speaking like that will make Luoluo unhappy."
"Qiu’er, stop pretending with your tiny trick." Luo Ye smiled helplessly, this guy, was clearly worried she’d take advantage of the situation not letting them go along...
