Chapter 260: You’re Thinking Too Much
Li Xia went out of the yard and did not go to her mother-in-law’s house. Instead, she carried her things and went straight to her own home.
At home, Wang Yunfa was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed while smoking. When he heard the door open, he quickly stood up and rushed to the window to throw the cigarette butt out.
Li Xia had long established a rule for him that he could not smoke in the house.
The door opened. Li Xia frowned the moment she entered the house. She looked at Wang Yunfa and said, “You’re smoking at home again?”
Wang Yunfa quickly shook his head. “No, Old Li came to visit just now. He was smoking. I was embarrassed to let him know that he couldn’t.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Yunfa’s gaze landed on the things Li Xia was holding. He couldn’t help but be stunned. “Elder Sister isn’t at home again?”
Li Xia sighed impatiently and nodded. “Elder Sister wasn’t at home, but Xiao Ai was.”
With that, she placed the things in her hand on the table in the living room.
“Then…” Wang Yunfa looked at the two bags and asked, puzzled,” Why did you bring them back? ”
“I left them a bag of fruits and a roasted duck!” Li Xia said and muttered, “I think I might have been wrong.”
“What?” Wang Yunfa was a little stunned. He frowned and went to Li Xia’s side. “What did you think was wrong?”
Li Xia had been thinking about it on the way back. She immediately felt that her previous line of thought was wrong.
She paused for a second and looked up at Wang Yunfa. “Did you know that Xiao Ai was eating at home alone? There was only a bowl of porridge and a plate of pickled vegetables. It’s not morning now. Why would she eat those for dinner?”
Wang Yunfa smiled. “That’s too extreme. Who said we can’t have porridge at night? And you don’t know that my sister dotes on Xiao Ai the most. She wouldn’t treat her badly. It’s not that you’re wrong, but you’re overthinking!”
“Is that so?” Li Xia muttered in her heart. However, she remembered that Jian Ai also said that her stomach felt uncomfortable. Now that she heard Wang Yunfa’s words, she couldn’t help but nod. “I might have been overthinking.”
She then sighed. “Sigh, I haven’t seen Elder Sister these two trips. It seems like I’ll have to go during the day when I’m on leave.”
“You don’t have to be so deliberate. It’s only been a few days, but you’ve already made two trips! My sister can’t run away, so there’s no need to be anxious,” Wang Yunfa said and leaned towards Li Xia. “Elder Brother took Zichen to Hong Kong and they’ll be back tomorrow. Let’s go to Elder Brother’s place tomorrow night, okay?”
Wang Yunzhong was the wealthiest person in the Wang family. Li Xia had always wanted to find an opportunity to interact with him, but he had gone to Hong Kong with his son these few days, so Li Xia didn’t mention it.
When she heard that Wang Yunzhong was coming back, her eyes lit up. “Sure. When I get off work tomorrow, I’ll go to the mall to buy some good things. Your elder brother is different from your elder sister. How can they take a liking to ordinary things? We can show them what we have, right?!”
Wang Yunfa nodded. “Yes, you’re right. My brother has good taste. You have to buy things carefully. He likes to drink tea. Buy some good tea for him and bring something for Sister-in-law.”
“And Zichen. My elder brother treasures this son the most. Look at what gifts you should buy for a child of his age,” Wang Yunfa added.
“Alright, I’ll go to the mall for a walk after work tomorrow. You can drive to pick me up then!” As she spoke, Li Xia stood up and picked up the other roasted duck that she had brought back. “I’ll go and cook. There’s also a roasted duck here. Let’s eat it.”
