Chapter 218: Birds Know My Intentions, Returning Home Follows My Heart (Two in One)
"It's impossible for you to work here as a part-time worker, but you can try the employee meals. You can get whatever you want~!"
"Wow! You guys usually eat a lot, sis!"
"Since everyone here comes from all corners of the world, we have dishes of all tastes. Our food is pretty good, so feel free to eat as much as you want!"
Fang Wei and the other two stayed in the Chenxi Coffee Shop until noon, and then successfully had their staff meal.
The place where food is served is in the kitchen, and the place where we eat is in the staff lounge.
The store has hired a professional cook, and breakfast, lunch and dinner are all provided free of charge. There are twelve employees in the store, and they basically take turns to eat at noon. After two or three o'clock in the afternoon, when there are not so many customers, they can take turns to rest for a while.
Fang Wei, Cai Ling and Zhiyi took stainless steel plates and followed Xu Caiwei to the kitchen to get their meals.
The dishes cooked by the aunt are placed in grids of stainless steel tableware. There are eight dishes to choose from, including braised pork, braised chicken legs, fried pork with peppers, broccoli with garlic, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and bok choy. There is also a pot of soup in a big pot on the side. You can make your own food and eat as much as you want, but don't waste it.
In a big city like Shanghai, most companies do not provide food and accommodation. The waiters in the store are basically from rural areas. They are new to the big city and are completely clueless. The reason they chose to work in Chenxi was very simple, because food and accommodation are provided here.
Even though the salary is not particularly high and the boss's work requirements are strict, everyone is already very satisfied with such treatment.
"Hey, sis, I thought you guys ate those little cakes and sandwiches in the store for breakfast, lunch, and dinner!"
"How can that be possible? However, if they are not sold out during the day, we will usually keep them for ourselves as midnight snacks at night. In fact, if we eat too much, we will feel sick. It is definitely not as filling as rice."
The four of them packed their meals and went to the staff lounge to eat. There was a large dining table where three or four employees were eating, while other employees were entertaining guests outside.
"Sister Caiwei——"
Although Xu Caiwei is not much older than them, and some employees are even older than her, she has been in the store for a long time and is a supervisor, so everyone basically calls her Sister Caiwei affectionately.
Xu Caiwei's ability to get things done is obvious to all, and she has a very good relationship with everyone, and we are all taken care of by her in daily life.
"They are my younger brothers and sisters. I brought them here to have a meal together." Xu Caiwei gave a brief introduction with a smile.
"Sister Caiwei's brothers and sisters are all so good-looking! Handsome guys and beautiful girls! Come and sit over here..." Everyone was also very enthusiastic.
Xiao Wan was also there. She opened a bottle of Lao Gan Ma and invited Fang Wei, Cai Ling and Zhi Yi to eat together.
"You can also try our canned mussels, which are our specialty."
Xu Caiwei took out two cans of mussels, opened them and put them on the table, and invited everyone to eat together.
"Oh! Is this the canned food that Sister Caiwei brought over after the Chinese New Year? It's delicious!"
"Try it quickly, it will be gone if you're late!"
Everyone was not polite and squeezed forward with a smile. Each of them picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and praised it highly.
When there are many strangers, Liu Zhiyi seems more reserved, while Xu Cailing seems more excited. She likes the lively environment with many people.
"Sister, doesn't your boss usually eat with you guys?"
"Well, sometimes. She usually eats out more."
"Who is your boss?"
"She's from Shanghai. We usually call her Sister Yun. She owns several houses and has collected all the rent. She's over 40 this year."
“Then, shouldn’t we call her Auntie, Shanghai Auntie…!” Cai Ling said in a low voice.
"You're so stupid. How can you call someone auntie? You have to call her sister. If you call her auntie, Sister Yun will get angry when she hears it." Xu Caiwei said with a smile.
"So what's your boss like?"
"She's usually quite strict, but she's a nice person. For example, the salary in our store is not bad compared to other people in the same industry, and it also includes food and accommodation. She gives out small red envelopes during Chinese New Year and other festivals. She prefers hardworking people, and she often says, 'You have to be discerning.' If you are capable and hardworking, she will give you a chance."
Fang Wei also smiled when he heard this and said, "That's perfect. She plays the villain and you, Sister Caiwei, play the hero. We can run the store in a two-pronged way."
"Hey, there's nothing I can do. I'm not the boss. I can't have a gloomy face every day. That would be asking for trouble."
"Sister Caiwei now has a lot of management experience!"
"There's still a lot to learn. Come on, Zhiyi, try this chili sauce. It goes really well with rice!"
"Uh-huh!"
Liu Zhiyi took a small spoon and scooped some chili sauce to mix with the rice. She could eat spicy food very well. While eating, she listened to them talk quietly.
"Sister, where is your dormitory?"
"The apartment complex behind the store, the three-bedroom and one-living room apartments or the four-bedroom and one-living room apartments are all our boss's own houses. We can all rent them together. The environment is pretty good, right? I can take you to have a look after work."
"We're going to go to Zhiyi's house later!"
"Where is Zhiyi's house?"
“Yuhua Residential District.”
"Oh! That's not far. Just a few hundred meters."
"Sister, when do you get off work?"
"Usually around 9:30 ., after cleaning up and stuff, we can leave at 10 ."
"Ah, it's so late. We may have to go back with Teacher Wen by then..."
"Of course. If you want to wait for me to get off work, it will be too late. I am also worried about you going home so late. There will be no subway to take if it is too late. You can find time to play together when I am on break."
"When will my sister rest?"
"I have four days off every month. Well, I can take one day off next Tuesday."
"it is good!"
After chatting and finishing their lunch, the four of them took their plates, washed them themselves, and put them back in the disinfection cabinet in the kitchen.
Xu Caiwei still had to work in the afternoon and evening, so Fang Wei and the other three didn't bother her in the store too much.
"Sister, let's go first! We'll come and play with you when you have a rest!"
"Don't just play around, work hard for your teacher Wen!"
"Yeah, got it! Let's go!"
"Goodbye Sister Caiwei~!"
"Remember to call me if you have anything!"
"Okay~!"
Fang Wei and the other three left the coffee shop, and Xu Caiwei returned to the store to continue working.
After clocking in at her sister's workplace, Xu Cailing was very satisfied. She would have to report to her parents when she got home.
The family's financial situation has indeed improved, but opening a coffee shop of her own has always been Xu Caiwei's dream. Now that she doesn't have to worry about family matters, she can pursue her dream more wholeheartedly.
"I, I have a hunch!"
Now that there are fewer people around, the usually quiet Liu Zhiyi starts to talk more.
"Eh? What's your premonition?"
"I think Sister Caiwei will definitely be able to open many coffee shops in the future, the kind that will be national chains and very famous!"
"How to say?"
"I just feel that Sister Caiwei is very powerful..."
"Yeah! You think so too! I think my sister is amazing too!"
Hearing Zhiyi's praise, Cailing puffed out her chest proudly, and then nudged Fang Wei beside her: "What do you think?"
"I think so too."
"Humph, I'll just say it."
After receiving Fang Wei's reply, Xu Cailing became even more certain of her judgment.
Cai Ling knew that even though she kept complaining that her sister was a fool and had just as many shortcomings as herself, deep down she still thought her sister was very capable. After all, she was her biological sister who came from the same bloodline as her!
The two sisters may have different personalities, but their stubbornness and persistence in certain things are exactly the same.
Seeing her sister was so powerful, Cai Ling also sighed and said with some melancholy:
"Teacher Wen is very good, Zhiyi is also very good, Fang Wei is also... barely good enough... only I am not good, ah."
"...No, wait a minute, why do you use adjectives like 'barely', 'sort of', 'somewhat' when you talk about me?"
That's why I'm not convinced.
Liu Zhiyi chuckled and comforted Cailing, "Cailing, you are amazing too! You are the double champion who broke our city's double record! I have a feeling! You will definitely become a big star athlete in the future!"
"Woo woo, Zhiyi, your premonition is really thoughtful. I love hearing it!"
Xu Cailing rushed over and gave Zhiyi a bear hug, then elbowed Fang Wei: "What about you?"
“…That’s what I thought.”
"Can you be a little more creative?!"
"That's what I really think!"
"Hmph, I'll trust you this time."
Girls’ minds are always so pure. When they are young, they think they can go to the places they want to go, meet the people they want to meet, and realize the dreams they want to realize.
Listening to their words, Fang Wei also felt a little emotional. When did he start to become smoothed over?
It was always said in the past that no one could predict the future, but this time, he chose to believe it just like them!
Otherwise, wouldn’t it be a waste of time to relive your youth?
We chatted and walked slowly, and before we knew it, we arrived at Yuhua Community.
Standing at the gate of the community, Liu Zhiyi remembered to tell Uncle Chen that he wanted to go back to take a look, so he quickly took out his mobile phone, found the phone number he copied from the home address book and dialed it.
After a few beeps, the call was connected.
"Hey?"
"Hello... is this Uncle Chen Yongping?"
"I am, you are...?"
"Um... I'm Liu Zhiyi. Grandpa and I got your phone number, Uncle Chen. I'm in Shanghai now and want to go home to visit. I wonder if anyone is still renting your house..."
"Oh! You are Alun's daughter, you understand, right? Uncle Chen will remember!"
"Yeah, it's me..."
"Have you come to Shanghai by yourself? Is Uncle Liu here too? Why didn't he tell me so that I could pick you up?"
"Grandpa is still in the village. I came here with my classmates..."
"Okay, Zhiyi, you want to go and see the house, right? No problem. It's your house anyway, so you can come back and see it if you want. The tenant just moved out a few days ago, and I'm cleaning the house right now. Where are you now? Do you want Uncle Chen to pick you up?"
"No, no! I'm at the gate of the community..."
"Oh! All right, then come up. I'm cleaning the house. The locks on your door haven't been changed yet, so you can just come in."
"Yes, please excuse me, Uncle Chen."
"We are from the same village, we should help each other when we are outside. What's the big deal? Come up quickly."
"it is good."
Liu Zhiyi breathed a sigh of relief and hung up the phone. As expected, for someone with her personality, it was best to communicate via text messages or QQ, otherwise she would easily get nervous when making a phone call.
After hanging up the phone, I realized that Fang Wei and Xu Cailing were standing next to me, eavesdropping with their heads close together.
Fang Wei and Cai Ling already knew what was going on without her repeating it.
"Uncle Chen is here too, so let's go straight up! Zhiyi, which way are we going?"
"This way——"
Yuhua Community is an open community with no walls separating it from the outside world, and residents can enter and exit freely.
The community was built in 1994, and Liu Zhiyi's family moved in in 1995. Before that, the family rented a house outside.
She was only seven or eight years old at that time, and she doesn't remember many details clearly, but she remembers that the moving day was very lively. My father specially picked up my grandparents from my hometown to come over, and then invited many colleagues and fellow townsmen and friends in Shanghai, and we set up a simple banquet at home.
Time flies, and eight years have passed. My parents are no longer with us, and the community that was newly built back then has now changed its appearance.
The fruit shop at the entrance is gone, replaced by a small supermarket;
She remembered that there was a banyan tree here, but it had been cut down at some point, and a notice board was installed at its location;
There are also many things that have not changed, such as this barber shop, which has always been there as far as I can remember and is still there now. When she was in elementary school, she also had shoulder-length hair and she would come to this shop every time for a haircut.
The customers in the store are basically all residents of the community. The boss is also from outside the area. Her whole family lives here, and their daughter is her elementary school classmate.
Liu Zhiyi remembered his daughter's name, Yang Jingshu. He was a good classmate of hers in elementary school. They also went to school and went home together for a period of time. However, after the third grade, the differences in their personalities gradually emerged and they were no longer as close as before.
There were no customers in the store at the moment. The boss was sitting on a small bench in front of the store smoking. When he saw three strangers walking into the community, he looked up and glanced at them curiously.
Finally, his eyes fell on Liu Zhiyi, who looked very familiar.
"Hey...you are, Xiao Liu?"
"..."
Liu Zhiyi originally wanted to pretend that she didn't see it. After all, she was not good at greeting people. But when she saw that the boss recognized her, she stopped and greeted him.
"Uncle Yang."
"It's really Xiao Liu!"
The boss was a little surprised, and walked over with a smile, looking a little unbelievable.
"You've grown into a beautiful young lady! I didn't recognize you at first! Is Xiao Liu back to her hometown to study now?"
"Yeah! And then I just happened to come back to take a look..."
"Okay, come back more often. If it's too late, Uncle Yang won't recognize you. You're going to high school after the summer vacation, right? Is this your classmate? Are you used to going back to your hometown?"
"Yeah, everything is fine... Jingshu is going to high school too, right?"
"Well, she doesn't study hard and plans to repeat a year. Xiao Shu is in the room now, how about Xiao Liu come in and sit with her?"
"Haha, maybe next time, maybe next time..."
After exchanging pleasantries and chatting for a while, a customer came into the store, so the boss went back to cut hair, and the three of them continued walking forward.
"Zhiyi, don't you want to go meet your old classmates?" Cai Ling asked curiously.
"Well……"
Liu Zhiyi scratched his head: "I'm still missing. I haven't seen you for so long. I don't know what to say. It feels so awkward..." "Huh, is this possible..."
Cai Ling, the social terrorist, doesn’t quite understand.
Fang Wei understands this feeling much better. It’s not that he is as introverted as Zhiyi, but in the long life, it is normal for many former classmates and friends to go their separate ways.
Especially when they have been separated for a long time and each of them has their own life, when they open each other's chat window, they don't know what to say for a while, and finally they can only become friends who like each other's messages in the circle of friends.
Including him and Cai Ling in his previous life.
The two spent a very harmonious childhood, but gradually drifted apart in junior high school. In the end, he was admitted to No. 3 Middle School, and Cai Ling went to Shanghai to work with her sister. Later, he also started working, and the two sisters opened a coffee shop together.
Whenever we meet during Chinese New Year or other holidays, we would exchange pleasantries: "Your coffee shop business is getting better and better!" "Haha, it's not bad, you're not bad either, you bought a car in Shanghai, how about it, do you have a girlfriend!" "No, I'm a single dog. How about you? " "Hehe, I only care about making money!"
We communicate like adults, but we no longer have the closeness to nature that we had as children.
Gradually, as their circles became different, such exchanges became less and less frequent. Occasionally, he would see from their friends' circle that the sisters' coffee shop was doing better and better. He would leave a message below saying "Congratulations, you've opened a new branch", and she would reply with "Thank you, remember to come and support us often", and then the conversation would come to an abrupt end.
Until the moment of his unexpected death, Cai Ling was still single, and it seemed that nothing else concerned her except her work.
But every time Fang Wei posted something on WeChat Moments, she would always like it, but she had never taken the initiative to chat with him.
Sometimes Fang Wei would wonder if she in that world would put down her work to attend his funeral, and what kind of mood she would be in when she came...
But such imagination has no answer after all.
"Hey!"
A cry from the side interrupted Fang Wei's thoughts.
He turned around and saw the girl next to him looking at him strangely.
"What the hell are you thinking about?"
“…I’m thinking about you.”
"Hey! Please don't say such disgusting things, it's so disgusting! I, I'm right here, and you still want, want me..."
Xu Cailing rubbed the ground, her pretty face flushed, and she kicked him in annoyance.
"...No, when I say I miss you, I don't mean that kind of missing you!"
"Stop talking! I don't want to listen!"
Xu Cailing covered her ears, feeling surprised, happy, embarrassed, annoyed and upset.
Fang Wei: “???”
Liu Zhiyi looked at Cai Ling, then at Fang Wei, and suddenly his expression became serious...
……
Although the community was built in 1994, it still looks very new.
The floors are generally not too high, and the exterior walls are covered with small ceramic tiles that are very characteristic of the times. Compared with Wen Susu's Binjiang Garden mansion in Lujiazui, the atmosphere of life here is much richer.
“My home is in this building.”
"Which floor?"
"Eighth floor, room 802..."
As he spoke, Liu Zhiyi took out the key from his pocket.
This key is placed together with the bunch of keys she had in her hometown. The keychain is the little rabbit keychain that Cai Ling gave her when she caught a cold and had a fever three years ago and Fang went to visit her. She has been using it ever since.
Then the colorful rope knot on the keychain was also given to her by Cailing. There was also a colorful rope knot on Cailing's keychain, which was given to Cailing by her.
When I was in the first grade of junior high school, braiding ropes was popular in the class. They all braided a lot of them. In addition to giving them to each other, most of the rest were given to Fang Weili.
And there is also the colorful rope shell bracelet that Wen Susu wore! It was also given to her when she went on a boat trip in the first year of the Chinese New Year, and Wen Susu has been wearing it until now.
I pressed the button for the eighth floor and the elevator door slowly closed.
Although she was going back to her own home, Liu Zhiyi felt a little nervous at the moment. She held the key tightly in her little hand.
"When we were moving, was it your uncle who came to help us?" Fang Wei asked.
"Well, Grandpa is here too. Uncle Chen picked us up here. He helped us find a moving company and arranged for us to take a boat. So I'm very grateful to him..."
When talking about these things, it seems like a lifetime ago, but in the girl's memory, the scene of that day is still clear.
She cried almost the entire time as she left home and got on the boat. She was unwilling to accept the moment she got on the boat and ran back crying. Then she was stopped by the staff. She was so tired of crying that she finally fell asleep in her grandfather's arms in a daze. When she woke up, she had arrived in Shayang Village.
She didn't elaborate, but Fang Wei could imagine how she felt at the time.
Cai Ling on the side also calmed down and held Zhiyi's hand with heartache.
Seeing their sudden silence, Liu Zhiyi laughed and said with relief: "What are you doing? I don't want to think about these things now!"
Not to mention Fang Wei who didn't believe it, even Cai Ling was skeptical.
Soon, the elevator reached the eighth floor.
Liu Zhiyi came out first and brought Fang Wei and Cai Ling to the door of Room 802.
Looking at the familiar door of her home, her heart beat faster and her fingers couldn't help but tremble. She tried twice before she could insert the key.
The door was not locked and the lock made a slight sound.
The door opened.
What you see first is the spacious and bright living room.
Familiar shoe cabinet, familiar dining table, familiar coffee table, familiar sofa, familiar chandelier...
A middle-aged man was bending over to mop the floor. When she saw his back, for a moment, Liu Zhiyi seemed to have an illusion, as if her father had returned, and then her mother would come out of the kitchen with dishes, smiling and calling her to wash her hands and eat...
Her throat choked for a moment, and after she came to her senses, she called out with some difficulty: "Uncle Chen..."
The middle-aged man turned around, holding a mop, and greeted me with a smile.
"Zhiyi! You have grown into a beautiful girl! You are..."
"Hello, Uncle Chen. We are from Donghua Village. My name is Fang Wei and she is Cai Ling."
"Oh……"
Seeing Uncle Chen thinking, Fang Wei added: "My father is Fang Xianfeng! Her father is Xu Zhiyuan!"
"Oh oh!! So it's Afeng and Ayuan's house! Now that you say that, I know it!"
"Are Uncle Chen and my dad also classmates?"
"I guess so! Haha, we went to class together at Donghua Primary School when we were young. Uncle Liu was also my teacher. But I am two years older than your father and his family. I left Shanghai a long time ago. I only go back during the Chinese New Year. I rarely go to your village. I can't recognize you younger generations at first, but I know your father's name when you say it!"
"Is Uncle Chen cleaning?"
"Yes, the previous tenant just moved out a few days ago. I have to clean up here and rent the house out as soon as possible."
Uncle Chen looked at Liu Zhiyi who was standing aside in a daze. He still remembered that when he sent her and Uncle Liu to take a boat trip three years ago, this girl cried so hard that it was heartbreaking.
After three years of not seeing her, she has grown into a big girl and now she doesn’t cry anymore.
It is always sad to see things and people change. As an adult, Uncle Chen understands this feeling very well and knows why the girl came back to take a look.
"Zhiyi, come inside and take a look. You haven't been back for three years, so I've helped keep all these original things. I've also told the tenants that the house must be well protected. Every month when I come to collect the rent and water, I'll come and check it out. The rent has increased a lot now, and I've told Uncle Liu that I'll transfer the rent to him once the house is rented out before the end of the month."
"Yes! Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Chen..."
"Well, we are all family, don't be polite. If it weren't for Alun's help, I wouldn't be able to gain a foothold in Shanghai."
"Is Uncle Chen a second-hand landlord in Shanghai now?" Fang Wei asked.
"Yes, I help people rent houses and make a little profit. But for Alun's house, except for water and electricity, I paid all the rent to Uncle Liu. It can be regarded as a stable income from Uncle Liu. As long as the two of us can live a decent life, that's enough."
"Uncle Chen, thank you so much."
Fang Wei and Cai Ling also helped to express their gratitude, and Liu Zhiyi even bowed slightly, which frightened the honest and simple-minded Uncle Chen so much that he was at a loss as to what to do.
"What's there to thank me for? I'm just helping you. Don't be so polite to your uncle!"
"Uncle Chen, we'll take care of the sanitation later. You just take a rest!"
"Well... that's fine!"
Uncle Chen understood what the boys and girls were thinking, so he nodded and said, "Then I'll go and do my work somewhere else first, and just remember to close the doors and windows when you leave."
"Yeah, thank you Uncle Chen!"
"Hey, here you go again! I'm leaving now... By the way, do you have a place to stay in Shanghai? If not, you can stay here first. I can find a tenant later."
"Yes, we have a place to live."
"That's fine. Remember to call uncle if you have anything."
"Uh-huh!"
Uncle Chen went downstairs and left. Fang Wei and Cai Ling picked up the broom and mop and started to help clean up.
Liu Zhiyi felt a little embarrassed and said hurriedly: "Let me do it, Fangwei, you guys can just sit on the sofa..."
"Let's clean up together! There is strength in numbers!"
"..."
She did not refuse anymore. She washed a rag and followed Fang Wei Cailing to clean the house inside and out.
During this time, it was basically Fang Wei and Cai Ling who were talking, while Liu Zhiyi was quiet.
"What's wrong with Zhiyi? Why aren't you talking..."
"It's okay, let her be alone."
"It doesn't seem right..."
"what?"
When the two of them came over to look at her out of curiosity, they discovered that the girl had been crying without knowing when...
She cried silently, wiping the tables, chairs and counters as she cried.
When she noticed Fang Wei and Cai Ling looking at her with concern, she turned away and used the back of her hand to wipe away the tears on her face that seemed to never be wiped away...
"Knowledge..."
Cai Ling was a little at a loss. She put down the mop in her hand, came over and patted her on the back.
Fang Wei also walked over. It was clearly her who was crying, but at that moment, he also felt so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe.
He took a tissue and gently wiped away the tears that were gushing from the corners of her eyes. He took the rag from her hand and held her slightly cold little hand.
"what's wrong?"
"..."
Listening to Fang Wei and Cai Ling's questions, Liu Zhiyi didn't say a word, just cried.
After a long silence, she finally opened her mouth. She had been crying silently, but her voice now became trembling and hoarse:
"I miss my parents..."
"As soon as I got home...there were traces of my parents everywhere...no matter where I looked...wherever I looked...I saw their shadows..."
“They were watching TV on the sofa… They were cooking in the kitchen… They were rinsing their mouths at the sink… They were hanging clothes on the balcony… They picked up food for me so I could eat more… The house was always clean when they were at home… They carried my schoolbag so I would remember to go home early… But when I went home… they were no longer at home…”
Liu Zhiyi cried even harder.
She closed her eyes tightly, but the warm scenes couldn't help but flood into her mind.
"Actually...actually I know...I can't do this...They don't want to see me cry...But as long as I stay at home...I miss them so much...I really...I miss them so much..."
Before coming to Shanghai, Liu Zhiyi thought about many scenes of going home. She felt that she had already let it go and would not cry when she went home this time.
But when the scene really brings back emotions, she, who pretends to be indestructible, is still so fragile that her defense is easily broken...
Birth, aging, sickness and death are propositions that human beings can never avoid. This is the weak point of human beings and also a universal common sense.
Seeing things in a new light doesn’t mean you can let them go; it just buries them deeper in your heart.
Fang Wei did not comfort her, nor did he have any reason to comfort her. He just stood in front of her, opened his arms and hugged her gently. He patted her back and let her cry freely on his chest.
After a while, the crying gradually weakened. The girl sniffed and looked at his clothes on his chest with a red face, which were already wet with her tears. Finally, she stopped crying.
"Remember the night we released sky lanterns during the Mid-Autumn Festival?"
"Um……"
"Do you remember what wish you placed on the sky lantern at that time?"
"Um……"
"I think Tian Deng must have told your words to Mom and Dad. You came home today to see them and clean the house. They must have known about it. What do you think they will think?"
"What are you thinking about..."
"I must be thinking, wow, our Zhiyi has grown up so much, she's so beautiful, she got into the best high school, she can go to such a far place by herself, and she can clean the house so clean!"
"Really……"
"Of course."
Fang Wei stretched out his fingers and scraped away the last teardrop on her pretty face, then took the rag beside him to wash it clean and put it in her hand.
"Let's keep working hard! Don't let uncle and aunt think we are being lazy! Cai Ling and I are the most active!"
"Ha ha……"
Liu Zhiyi chuckled. She thought she must look very ugly if she cried and laughed at the same time!
"I, I'm not lazy either!"
"Keep working~!"
The bright afternoon light illuminated the room.
Two beautiful birds landed outside the balcony, and they tilted their heads and looked into the house curiously.
The wind blew, and they flapped their wings and flew away...
