Chapter 196: Won’t we be able to do homework together every night from now on?
The next morning, while jogging, Fang Wei talked to Liu Zhiyi about his trip to the city later.
"hu~hu~"
"In the city? Huh~ Why are you going to the city? Are you going to buy new clothes for the New Year?"
The girl turned to look at him in confusion. It was a cold winter day and she was wearing a lot of clothes. After warming up from running, her face turned red.
"Oh, that's right. New Year's Day is coming soon, and I haven't bought any new clothes yet. Let's go buy some new clothes together sometime."
"Okay, so what are you doing in the city today?"
"Go with my dad to look at the house."
"Looking at a house? Does uncle want to buy a house?"
"Yes, I plan to buy a house in the city."
"..."
The girl, who was running, was not sure what she was thinking about, but suddenly her concentration got distracted and she accidentally tripped herself, and fell to the ground with a cry.
Fortunately, Fang Wei was quick-witted and grabbed her.
Liu Zhiyi's pretty face turned even redder. She quickly stood up and tidied up the hair that was scattered on her face with some embarrassment.
"What? How can you trip yourself?" Fang Wei couldn't help laughing.
"Let's go, let's go..."
"What are you thinking about?"
"..."
Liu Zhiyi didn't answer him directly, but frowned and asked anxiously: "Uncle Feng bought a house in the city, Fang Wei...are you planning to move to the city?"
"what?"
Fang Wei was stunned for a moment, and finally realized what the girl had been thinking. It was exactly the same reaction as Cai Ling had when she heard him tell the news at the window last night.
"How is that possible! What are you thinking?"
Fang Wei tapped the girl's head jokingly.
Liu Zhiyi felt pain and covered her head with her little hands, but she felt relaxed. She blinked her big eyes and looked at him, waiting for him to continue.
"The mussel farms at home are all on the island. We can't move them all to the city. We definitely won't move them."
"Oh, I thought you were moving..."
"No, just buy a house. When I move to the city or something, I'll have a place to stay. I can also rent it out, which is also a stable income."
"Uh-huh."
Liu Zhiyi was not interested in these things. As long as he didn't move, she would be relieved.
"We're going to high school soon, so if we don't want to live on campus, we can live outside together. We'll have our own house, so we don't have to rent one, and life will be more convenient."
Liu Zhiyi suddenly became interested again! Living together outside?!
"My family doesn't have a house in the city..."
"It's okay. My house is big. If you don't like living in the dormitory, you can just come live with me."
"Haha, Uncle Feng hasn't bought it yet."
"So, let's go check out the house this morning."
Thinking of something, Fang Wei invited again: "Do you have anything to do today? If you have nothing else, you can go shopping with us. I'll go on a motorcycle!"
"I, I can't..."
After all, Uncle Feng was there too, and she would feel awkward if she went shopping with the two of them alone.
"Okay, if you don't want to go, I'll go with Cai Ling."
“…I’ll go! I’ll go!”
"..."
Fang Wei couldn't help but look back at her. She had just said she couldn't go, but now she seemed afraid that she would miss the hot meal.
"Okay then, tell your uncle when you finish your run and I'll pick you up later."
"it is good!!"
……
The scale of the Fang family's mussel farming is now so large that it is obvious to everyone in the village. It can also be calculated that the Fang family has made a lot of money in the past two years.
I am envious, of course, but I wouldn't say I am jealous. After all, many individual farmers in the village who have kept up with the pace of breeding in the past two years have received a lot of care and guidance from the Fang family. I can only say that it is a pity that I did not have the vision and courage to catch the earliest dividend train with the Fang family.
Although he made a lot of money, Fang Weijia was still quite low-key in his daily life. He still lived in that bungalow. As there were no roads on the island for private cars to travel, he did buy a new car, but it was a new motorcycle.
This brand new red 125 motorcycle became Fang Wei's vehicle. Just like the Will-O-Wisp boy, when he first bought it, he often took the two girls out for a ride.
After getting a motorcycle, Fang Wei no longer has to ride a bicycle to carry people to the city. There is no restriction on motorcycles in the city, and the management of motorcycles is extremely relaxed these days. As long as you don't violate traffic rules on the road, you'll be fine.
The fun of driving a motorcycle is much more exciting than driving a car. There is no need to mention Fang Wei's skills. With his current height of meters, it is easy for him to control a motorcycle.
I once had a dream of traveling by motorcycle, but it never came true until I died suddenly at my workstation. It’s sad to think about it…
Lifting his legs, Fang Wei straddled the motorcycle, inserted the key, raised his footrests, stepped hard, and with precise control of the clutch and accelerator, he started the engine easily.
I turned the throttle and the motorcycle made a rumbling sound, which was pleasant to hear.
It’s a pity that the 125 is still too rustic. I’ll have to wait until I have more money to buy a better motorcycle to play with.
Fang Wei doesn't like the adrenaline rush during racing. What he loves is the feeling of riding leisurely and enjoying the scenery along the way, feeling the free wind.
Thinking about it this way, this 'mature, stable and old-fashioned' 125 motorcycle seems to be quite suitable for him...
Fortunately, I look young and handsome, so I won’t be mistaken for a biker guy…
"Xu! Cai! Ling! Are you okay?"
“Mmmmm, here it comes…!”
The girl from the neighboring house came trotting out of the house with an unfinished bun in her mouth. Seeing that there was no one around, she leaned on the wall with her small hands, took a step with her long legs, and easily jumped over the low wall between the two houses.
Fang Wei: “…”
Mature! Come on, except for being taller, what's the difference between this and being a kid? !
Coming to Fang Wei, she held his shoulders, raised her long legs, and sat astride the back of his motorcycle.
There is a trunk installed at the back of the motorcycle, which can be used as a backrest.
At this moment, they hadn't set off yet, and the girl didn't lean on him. She held his waist with one hand and held the bun with the other hand. She also handed the bun to Fang Wei in front of her and asked:
"Have you had breakfast? Do you want some?"
"...If you really care, you shouldn't come to me with a bun with only two bites left. It's all drool and looks disgusting."
"Humph, eat it if you want!"
Xu Cailing slapped him in annoyance.
"Hurry up and finish eating and put on your helmet." Fang Wei put on the helmet and handed her a smaller helmet.
Xu Cailing finished the bun in two mouthfuls, clapped her hands, took the helmet, put it on her little head, and fastened the straps around the girl's delicate chin.
She was restless while sitting in it. Although it was not a good car, it was a new one after all, so it was still comfortable to sit in.
"When will you teach me how to ride a motorcycle?"
"I don't dare let you learn, for fear that you will take off."
"I, I ride a bike much more steadily than you!"
"Haha, take a good look, someone like me is called stable."
"Hey, little motorcycle guy!"
"What are you talking about? Is there a biker guy as handsome as me?"
"Still a shameless biker!"
"..."
While the two were chatting and gossiping, Fang Xianfeng came out of the room with something in his hand. He opened the trunk of his motorcycle and put his documents in a small red bag.
"Uncle Fang!"
"Has Cailing bought new clothes for the New Year?"
Seeing this girl, Fang Xianfeng also laughed. He had watched her grow up since she was a child, and she was no different from his own child.
"Not yet! My sister said she would buy it for me when she comes back!"
"Buy a skirt. You are so tall, you will look good in a skirt."
"Hey, I'm not used to wearing this..."
If we count her age in lunar calendar, she will be sixteen after the Chinese New Year. Her body and appearance have fully grown, and she can be considered a grown-up girl now. However, this girl is not quiet at all.
The father and son rode out on their motorcycles and picked up the quiet girl in Shayang Village.
"Here, put on your helmet."
"Uh-huh!"
Liu Zhiyi stood by and put on his helmet first.
Since Cai Ling had already gotten on the car, Liu Zhiyi had to sit in the back.
The two girls were not fat, so if Fang Wei moved forward a little, there was enough room for both of them to sit down.
"Is there enough space?"
"enough!"
"Why do I feel so crowded..."
Fang Wei couldn't help but look back. Wow, Liu Zhiyi, who was sitting at the back, still had some space between her butt and the backrest of the trunk. The two of them didn't care and just kept squeezing towards him like a sandwich.
"...You two, step back a little!"
"Oh."
After another round of adjusting their positions, all three finally felt comfortable.
Fang Wei always felt that his motorcycle was not that small, so how come the back was so full of stuff? !
"Hehe, it's so warm huddled together like this. Are you cold, Zhiyi?"
"not cold!"
"You can put your hands in my pockets, so they won't be cold."
"Uh-huh!"
So Liu Zhiyi put her little hands into the two pockets of Xu Cailing's sports jacket, and sure enough, she felt warmer when hugged like this.
Cai Ling, who made this suggestion, had already put her hands into the front pockets of her coat.
Now it's all right. With a motorcycle, we don't have to worry about who will sit on the bicycle today. It's just right for three people to sit together, and in such a cold winter, it's really warm to squeeze together~~
After shifting the gear, he slowly released the clutch and lightly stepped on the gas, and the motorcycle began to run smoothly on the country road.
The sky was gray in the early morning, but the sun had risen, shining warmly on the helmets of the three men, making them sparkle on the varnished surface.
Cai Ling couldn't help laughing at this scene, "We seem like a family. I remember when I was a kid, I rode on my dad's motorcycle, my mom sat at the back, and my sister and I were in the middle!"
Liu Zhiyi also felt that they were similar and described them as follows: "Then Fang Wei is the father, I am the mother, and Cailing, you are the daughter."
"certainly not!"
Xu Cailing argued, "You should know that you are the daughter and I am the mother! When we were kids, we played house, Fang Wei and I were the father and mother, and Asheng was the son."
"But Cailing, you are stuck in the middle now. You must be the daughter protected by your parents."
"No way, Zhiyi, you are the daughter, you are the smallest."
"I, I don't want to be a daughter either."
"Then what do you want to be?"
"…Little mother!"
"Don't argue, don't argue, you two are both my good daughters."
"roll!"
The two girls said in unison.
Who knows why boys love being fathers so much?
The world is really just a huge playing house...
……
Two 125 motorcycles drove one after the other through the narrow country road, crossed the Baitan Bridge across the sea, and arrived at the Baitan Wharf.
As the end of the year approaches, the pier is much busier than before.
Thinking about the past year or so, I have been traveling to the city quite often. In less than half a year, I will take the high school entrance examination, and then I will officially go to high school in the city.
Perhaps because it was becoming increasingly clear that the three of them would go to the same high school, Xu Cailing and Liu Zhiyi did not feel too melancholy about graduation season.
In addition, Fang Wei had mentioned to them before that perhaps after buying a house in the city, the three of them could live together, so the excitement and anticipation were even stronger.
"Then, then can we do homework together every night?"
Liu Zhiyi got excited just thinking about this. What she envied most about Cailing was that Cailing and Fang Wei had windows facing each other. When she thought about Cailing and Fang Wei studying together under the warm light every night, she was extremely envious.
"We can even cook together! Hehe, we can ask Fang Wei to cook for us every day. His cooking is super delicious."
"Then, what if Uncle Feng and the others don't want us to move in..." Liu Zhiyi lowered her voice and whispered in her ear.
"Uh... No way! If it really doesn't work, I'll ask my dad to buy a house and let Fang Wei move in. Isn't that the same thing?"
"Cai Ling, you are so smart!"
The girls' tangled mood suddenly became clear.
