Chapter 80 Snatching Toys
Just as Liu Fang went out, Ma Yan also did not want to be outdone and bumped into her.
“Sister-in-law, what a coincidence.”
What coincidence?! Ma Yan deliberately found the right time to bump into Liu Fang. Liu Fang saw through her but did not say anything
“Yeah. Are you also out for a walk?”
“Yes. There’s nothing much to do after eating, so I’m here to digest the food in the courtyard. Where are you and Yun Lian going?”
Ma Yan knew the answer, but she was just waiting for Liu Fang to give her a chance to continue the conversation.
“Didn’t the children just come back? I’m bringing Yun Lian to Yun Shan’s house to take a seat and chat. Why don’t you come along?”
Ma Yan was waiting for this.
She knew Liu Fang would definitely bring her daughter to Yun Shan’s house. Liu Fang even pretended to say that she wanted to connect with Yun Shan’s family, which was really hypocritical.
When Ma Yan walked to the door of Yun Shan’s house, she felt a little uneasy. She felt that it was not as easy to take advantage of them as before. Chen Li was also not as easy to talk to.
Nonetheless, thinking of her two sons, Ma Yan still followed behind Liu Fang into Yun Shan’s house.
“Chen Li, did you just finish eating?” Yun Shan’s family invited Zhou Lin for a simple meal. Chen Li was wiping the table that had just been cleaned.
“Ah, you’re both here. Sit wherever you like.”
“I didn’t see Yun Shan go out. Where did he
go?”
Liu Fang looked around. She only saw Yun Yang playing with the toys that Zhou Lin had brought him this time. She did not see anyone else.
“Yun Shan went to the backyard to dry some garlic. Why are you looking for him?” Chen Li asked, puzzled. Could it be that there was some tiring work that Liu Fang wanted Yun Shan to do?
“Oh, it’s nothing. She was just asking.” Ma Yan quickly tried to smooth things over for Liu Fang.
“What’s Yun Yang playing with? The small airplane model looks quite exquisite.”
Liu Fang had to find a topic. She was going to start with the child’s toy first.
“Oh, Auntie, this is a gift from my brother-in-law.” Yun Yang had originally wanted to ignore his aunt, but when he thought about how his mother and sister had taught him to be polite, he reluctantly replied to Liu Fang
“Oh? This is much better than the toys you usually play with. I believe that even our village doesn’t have such exquisite toys. Even Yun Lang has never played with such a toy before.”
Liu Fang started to sound envious. Even as a child, Yun Yang felt uncomfortable listening to her.
“Hehe, what are you talking about? It’s just a small plane.”
Chen Li naturally understood the meaning behind Liu Fang’s words. If this had happened in the past, she would have agreed and let Yun Lang play with the toys. However, all good things had always been taken by Yun Gang and Yun Lin’s children.
It would have been fine if they had just borrowed them to play with, but they never returned anything they borrowed. Chen Li’s children would be bullied by the children of the other two families if they wanted their things back.
Chen Li also imitated her daughter and changed her attitude toward Yun Gang and Yun Lin’s family.
Seeing that she did not get the result she wanted, Liu Fang pulled a long face and then gave Yun Lian a look.
“Third Aunt, can you give these toys to Yun Lang to play with for two days?!”
Yun Lian quickly understood her adoptive mother’s intentions and continued the conversation.
When Chen Li heard Yun Lian’s words, she knew that Yun Lian was helping Liu Fang. If she refused, she would be punished. Yun Lian might also be punished afterward. “It’s normal for children to like toys. It’s okay for them to play together. If Yun Lang wants to play with the toys, he can come to find Yangyang anytime.”
“That would be troublesome. Why don’t we just ask Yun Yang to lend Yun Lang the toys to play with? We’ll return them in a few
days.”
Yun Yang could not help but roll his eyes when he heard Liu Fang and Yun Lian’s words.
“But Elder Brother hasn’t returned the toys he borrowed from me the last time.”
Yun Yang immediately stopped Liu Fang. Like sister, like brother. Although Yun Yang was young, he was not easily bullied.
