Chapter 94
Chu's Mom also got angry that Wang Aunt spoke like this. When she saw her daughter Chu Yang get angry, she didn't dare say anything and handed the phone to Chu Yang.
Chu Yang took the phone and directly said one word to the other side: "Get lost!" Then she hung up the phone directly. She then said to the three people at the dinner table: "Ignore her from now on."
"Oh."
"Okay."
Chu's Dad and Chu's Mom didn't dare to refute. Their daughter Chu Yang could make money and was in college, so the whole family listened to her. Seeing that she was angry now, everyone was afraid of making Chu Yang angry.
Chu Luo also didn't like Wang Aunt. "Auntie came over today? I didn't know."
Chu Yang picked up her bowl and chopsticks. "You were gone when she came over. She said we didn't give them fruit, said we were country bumpkins without manners. She said it was dirty that we were drying rice in the yard." In her eyes, people like Wang Aunt were even dirtier. "People like her shouldn't be associated with in the future. We don't have relatives like that in our family."
What a terrible relative was she? Chu Yang wouldn't indulge her.
Only then did Chu's Dad remember: "Oh right, I forgot to send fruit over to Mom's side. I forgot because I was busy." In the past, their family would always send things like fruit and vegetables over to Wang's family side, whatever they grew at home they would always send some over.
When Chu's Mom thought about what happened over the New Year she got angry. "We won't send them anymore. When I think about what happened over New Year's I don't want to send anything. Don't they have money in their family? They can buy it themselves."
Chu's Dad said: "But your mom's side..."
Chu's Mom put down her chopsticks. "I married off my daughter and poured out the water. We won't send anything anymore."
Chu Luo asked: "What did Auntie say over New Year's? Don't tell me it was something about my sister wasting her time studying."
She was right on target, but Chu's Mom didn't let her children know those unkind words. "Kids shouldn't pry so deeply into things. Hurry up and eat your meal."
On the other side, after Wang Aunt looked at the hung-up phone she stroked her chest angrily. "Look at what kind of daughter your younger sister gave birth to, she dares to defy her elders. Country bumpkins really make me mad!"
Wang Uncle said: "Forget it, I'll teach them a lesson next time. Wasn't I telling you to go ask them for fruit? Where's the fruit?"
When it came to this, Wang Aunt got angry again. "Your dear niece chased me out. No fruit at all, not a single hair." Wang Aunt told about everything that happened today, of course she added some edits to make herself seem especially pitiable.
After Wang Uncle heard he also got angry. "A little brat who's read so many books but learned nothing."
Wang Aunt's eyes shifted around sneakily. "Why don't I introduce her to a man? If you ask me, at her age she should be married off already."
Wang Uncle thought about it. "Okay. I'll leave it to you."
"But your little sister's husband..."
Wang Uncle said: "Who cares what they do. They're just country bumpkins, useless. Introduce her to someone with a bit of money. His age isn't important. An older one might even dote on her more. They won't dare refuse." In his eyes, his little sister's husband were weak and useless people.
"Alright, I'll take a look."
The butler: "The Master made plans with Chairman Yuan and Chairman Chen's family to go fishing, it seems."
"Fishing? Okay then."
That afternoon, Chi Yan blankly sat fishing there thinking...he'd still rather be home looking at photos of his Chu Yang.
Next to him, Chi Bai was hotly debating with his old friends about whose fish was bigger.
"Little Yan, take a look, whose fish is bigger?"
Chi Yan thought...is this supposed to be interesting?
But...
"I'll go buy a scale to weigh them and see whose is heavier."
The three old men: "Hurry up and go!"
Chi Yan thought...
The next day, Chi Bai said: "Little Yan, going fishing with Grandpa?"
Chi Yan: "...I'll pass. You go ahead, don't forget to bring a scale."
After returning to his room, Chi Yan looked at the videos Chu Yang sent him of her picking fruit and drying rice. Ah! He so wanted to go!
Wait. It seemed like he really could go.
Anyway there was nothing to do at home, and Jiazhou City wasn't that far either. He could totally drive there!
Decided, Chi Yan packed a set of clothes and grabbed his car keys before setting off. Of course he still let his family know before leaving. "I'm going out for a bit, might be gone a few days."
No one tried to stop him. They thought, he's in college now, a full grown adult. If he wants to go out, then go.
The drive from Jing City to Jiazhou City took over three hours. To get to Chu Yang's home it would be about four hours total. Chi Yan had seen Chu Yang's ID card before so he knew where her home was. He plugged the location into his navigation and set off.
He didn't tell Chu Yang he was coming, wanting it to be a surprise. He hadn't even arrived yet but was already imagining Chu Yang's excitement at seeing him, how she would throw herself into his arms and then they would...this and that.
Just thinking about it had Chi Yan grinning from ear to ear.
On the other side, Chu Yang was wearing shorts while eating chilled watermelon, directing her younger brother Chu Luo in turning over the drying rice. She didn't have any idea Chi Yan was currently driving over to her home.
Over this time her magic power had mostly recovered. Thinking about how long it had been since she updated her blog, she notified her fans: updates will resume today.
Some clients immediately messaged her about projects...business was coming in...
