Chapter 146 Don't come tonight!
Ms. Fang Mei indeed has a good memory; even after the chaos just now, she can still remember the key information in Fang Yige's words.
Leng Fang was more cautious this time. His gaze swept over An Xiaoyue, who was blowing on the porridge like a chick pecking at rice and eating it.
My little sister is so delicate; even a cough from her can throw Mom and Dad into a frenzy. We can't let her words cause the baby in my belly to feel an "earthquake."
Leng Fang only spoke after confirming that she wouldn't choke again.
“Last night, Sheng Yang was downstairs talking to her on the phone.”
An Xiaoyue's tense heart finally died completely.
She had never experienced being caught as a thief before. Now she was experiencing that tension and excitement.
Leng Fang thinks his cousin is really good at grasping details and key points.
Fang Mei, holding Xiao Yue's arm, widened her eyes in curiosity and asked, "Is it really Sheng Yang?"
An Xiaoyue forced herself to admit, "Yes."
"You two, you guys..." Fang Mei said in shock, unable to speak.
She looked across at her husband of thirty years, meeting his meaningful gaze, and those deep memories surfaced.
When she and Yushan were deeply in love, Yushan climbed over the wall into her house just to bring her a bag of spicy cold beef.
Someone as single-mindedly focused on medicine as my son would definitely not understand.
But having been through it all, she immediately understood Fu Shengyang and Xiaoyue's actions. "That makes sense."
Couples in the throes of new love often do things that seem funny or absurd to most people.
But that is the true expression of a passionate heart, the moment when a heart beats most clearly!
Look at Xiaoyue's pointed ears, they're already as red as boiled shrimp. Fang Mei decided to stop teasing her shy and timid niece.
She looked at her son, Leng Fangyi, with suspicion. "How did you know it was your brother Sheng Yang?"
Leng Fang rolled his eyes, lowered his gaze, and drank his porridge without saying another word.
She knew her son too well; his sudden silence must mean he was hiding something.
"Leng Fangyi, where are the rats?" Fang Mei asked directly.
"It's been dealt with," Leng Fang said calmly.
"I'll call your uncle and ask him to bring a cat from Aunt Qi's house when he comes back." Fang Mei took out her phone and was about to make a call.
Seeing that her mother was serious, Leng Fang had no choice but to confess everything: "I kept it behind the flower bed in the yard."
"Take it and get rid of it, do you hear me?" Fang Mei's biggest fear in this life is rats. The thought of having rats in her house makes her unable to eat or sleep.
When she first got married, Leng Yushan was also doing research.
She learned by chance that Yushan's hand had touched a mouse in the laboratory, and then came back to touch her.
She insisted that Yushan soak his hands in alcohol for ten minutes before she would reluctantly let him touch her skin.
Yushan felt that such a fleeting moment of passion was not worth the waste, so he did not become a mentor but instead competed for the position of dean.
Leng Yushan knew his son's plan and advised him from his professional perspective, "These are not lab mice raised according to standards; they carry bacteria to some extent. No matter how you handle them, they will still interfere with the experimental data and results."
Leng Fang did indeed think of many purification methods last night, but none of them satisfied him.
Since his father had said that, he had no choice but to abandon the idea of saving money. "Okay, I understand."
He shouldn't have gotten up to check when he heard noises at the door last night.
Not only did I get a mouthful of dog food last night, but this morning I also lost the mouse that I had painstakingly hidden.
Leng Fang stuck a steamed dumpling in the hole, ate it in one bite, and then regretted it!
After they had all finished talking, An Xiaoyue finally spoke up, "Auntie, where are my mom and dad?"
She didn't see them when she got up. It's only a little past eight o'clock. What did they go about?
Fang Mei: "Grandpa spoke with Uncle Qi from the clan yesterday. Tomorrow is an auspicious day, and we're going to hold a ceremony for you. Grandpa will take your parents back to the village early this morning."
“Your recognition of your ancestors should be held in the ancestral hall, and the elder in charge of the genealogy should be invited to record your information in the genealogy.”
"You probably won't see your parents before evening; it takes half a day to go back and forth to the village."
"Tomorrow? So soon?" An Xiaoyue was slightly surprised. Her grandfather's efficiency was too high.
Fang Mei said, "Well, if we don't hold the ceremony tomorrow, we'll have to wait until June. Your parents might not have such a long vacation next time, so we decided to hold it tomorrow."
An Xiaoyue had no experience, but she knew that recognizing one's ancestors was a very serious and complicated matter.
Her parents and grandfather are all busy running around, so she should be prepared too.
"Then what do I do?"
"Xiaoyue doesn't need to do anything." Leng Yushan put down his chopsticks.
As a member of the family, he had more authority to explain this, and he personally spoke to Xiaoyue about it.
"The auspicious time tomorrow is 11 a.m. After the family reunion ceremony, we will go from house to house to eat vegetables, and then it will be over."
An Xiaoyue stared blankly, mouth agape. "Eating vegetables at each house?"
How much will that take?! How long will it take to eat?!
"Here's the thing, after your grandfather goes back today, Seventh Uncle, you should call him Seventh Grandfather. He will then inform each household to prepare a dish full of sincerity. After the ceremony, Seventh Grandfather will take you to visit each household and get to know your relatives."
As a woman, Fang Mei understood Xiao Yue's concerns better. She said:
"You don't have to finish it all. Just take a bite from each family. It symbolizes a meal from a hundred families, a blessing from a hundred families. It means that each family in the Leng family shares a bit of good fortune with you, and that they will bless you with good luck and good health."
“I understand.” An Xiaoyue nodded knowingly.
It means that it's none of her business, and the entire Leng family will have to take care of her homecoming ceremony.
"Don't worry, we're all going tomorrow." Fang Mei thought that her innocent and pure niece would definitely feel uncomfortable if she were suddenly brought to an unfamiliar environment. "Your uncle and brother are going to work today, and your aunt and you will stay at home."
"Okay." She wanted to refuse, knowing how busy Zhongkangtang was.
If she refuses, she will be all alone here, and she will feel lonely and lost.
After breakfast, Fang Mei and the housekeeper would prepare for lunch and dinner.
That's how it is when a large family lives together; they're busy all day long preparing for food.
She took a book and her phone and sat on the sofa in the living room to read.
When no one was looking, she put her phone on silent and sent a message to Fu Shengyang.
Fang Yi saw it last night.
My uncle and aunt know that you came to see me last night.
Don't come tonight.
An Xiaoyue put down her phone and stared blankly at the book in front of her.
If Fu Shengyang comes again tonight, her whole family will laugh at her; she's not that shameless.
It's best if he doesn't come.
Although she really wanted to see him.
For example, right now, she's sitting here, and this kind of life is no different from living in the Waterside Pavilion.
After breakfast, they would read or write in the living room.
But without Sheng Yang around, she still felt something was missing and couldn't concentrate on doing things.
Sheng Yang said last night that he was going to take his grandfather out for a walk today. I wonder where they will go?
"Xiaoyue, how's your reading going?"
Fang Mei was busy in the kitchen when she turned around to get something and glanced at Xiao Yue's back, feeling that it looked too lonely.
