If bragging could be punished, Li Yi felt that her aunt could at least be sentenced to life imprisonment.
After watching her aunt go upstairs, she brought the bowls into the kitchen, rinsed them under the tap, and put them back into the cabinet.
He Fang said, "Leave it there. You don't have to worry about anything. Hurry up and go into the room to lie down. You can still nap for more than two hours before lunch."
Li Yi picked up a boiled egg and asked as she peeled it, "Did Auntie make a mistake again? My dad doesn't sound very happy. They're probably going to quarrel again. "
She had seen her dad and aunt quarrel many times since she was young, so she was already used to it.
He Fang said, "Didn't they expropriate the land for their film base? It used to be so cheap. Now, not only do they get the money, but they also get the house. Those who lost the land are regretting it so much that they gathered at their company to make a fuss. You know what your aunt is like. She said something impulsive and went on the news.
Li Yi said understandingly, "Auntie is a celebrity now. If someone catches her doing something, it'll be easy for it to be hyped up. Isn't that normal? Dad shouldn't be angry about it."
He Fang said, "Go into the room and sleep. Don't get involved. You can't do anything about this."
Although Li Yi said yes, her legs still unconsciously moved to the bottom of the stairs. She listened to the quarrel coming from upstairs with Fang Tangjin and Li Kuo, but all she heard was her aunt's loud argument.
Soon, she heard the sound of the door being slammed again. She quickly sat on the sofa, and Fang Tangjin followed closely behind. He picked up a magazine and pretended to read it.
Li Kuo's reaction was a beat slower, and he was caught red-handed by Five. Five said angrily, "Don't just laugh at me and think that you'll be fine. They're looking for you. Go up yourself."
Li Kuo said in disbelief, "I didn't do anything wrong. Why are you looking for me?"
Five laughed. "Peng Yue is the only one who was foolishly kept in the dark about your stupid matter. Who else doesn't know about the rest? You really think everyone is a fool. "
Fang Tangjin coughed heavily. He felt that Five was too straightforward and didn't care about Li Kuo's face.
"I'm innocent!" Li Kuo's face turned pale and anxious.
Five shrugged. "I don't care. You can explain to Li Lao Er yourself. Sigh, good luck."
Li Kuo stomped his feet and went upstairs with his head lowered.
Fang Tangjin saw Five frowning. He was afraid of being involved, so he quickly ran outside to build a snowman with the children.
Li Yi glanced at her aunt, then turned around to pick up the magazine that Fang Tangjin had tossed aside and continued reading.
Five said, "If you really can't help it, just laugh if you want to. What's the big deal about you?"
"Really?" Li Yi grinned widely.
Five rolled his eyes at her. "You won't laugh just because I told you not to. Are you that obedient?"
"I'm sorry, I really can't do it … Ah … Haha …" Li Yi could no longer hold back her laughter.
Clutching his stomach, Zhang Xuan laughed for a while before he felt that something was amiss, so he slowly stopped laughing.
Five said, "I haven't been here for half a year. If it wasn't because you came back and I wanted to see you, would I come to your house and make trouble for myself? You heartless little thing, you're actually gloating here. "
Li Yi cupped her hands and said, "Then I thank you. However, I'm actually very confident in you. I think that if you let go, you might be able to put up a fight. Don't be a coward, fight. "
Five said, "You're just here to watch the show, aren't you? Sigh, do you really think I'm afraid of your dad? I'm just taking advantage of you. It's not like you don't know that we relied on your dad when we were young. We even troubled him a lot when we started working. If I were to argue with him, he might even scold me for being heartless.
I didn't have a choice. I used to be unconvinced, but now I've thought it through. I'll just suffer a little. No matter what, I'm his sister and he can't do anything to me. His mouth is his, so he can say whatever he wants. I won't take it to heart. "
Li Yi said, "Then I can only express my deep sympathy."
She knew her father's way of doing things. As long as it was a family matter, no matter the situation, he would stick his nose in it.
Five said, "To be honest, your dad is like your grandfather. He dotes on you the most even though you're a generation apart. He dotes on me and your aunt, but if we go against his wishes, he'll still beat us up. You were so mischievous when you were young. He couldn't even bear to scold you, much less beat you up. When we were in school, your aunt spent money however she wanted, but she was mature and sensible. She couldn't spend money even if we gave her. She was also stubborn and didn't want to ask your dad for money.
As for me? "
She spread her five fingers. "I spent money freely and spent every cent I had. At that time, I was open-minded and enjoyed myself. I didn't think about my future and did whatever I wanted. I just let myself be and did whatever I wanted.
Money was tight. If I didn't have money, I would ask your dad for it or cheat some from your grandma. I would even get some red packets during the holidays. My days were really carefree.
What was really sad was that your dad controlled my allowance in Singapore. Sigh, even the aunties at home were richer than me.
My results in school weren't good. Anyway, other than a few good friends, I didn't have much. "
Li Yi smiled and said, "When I graduate, I'll find a job myself. I can't keep spending their money."
Five said, "Are you stupid? Your dad gave you his card. You can just spend it however you want. There's no limit anyway. Why would you want to save money? You can't think straight."
Li Yi said, "How can I just spend it? I don't even know where the card is."
She remembered that her dad had given her a card when she was in university. Her dad told her that there was no limit and she could spend it however she wanted. However, her dad was poor and used to bragging. She didn't take it seriously and just left it at home. When she left, she only took the card that her mom gave her and asked her to transfer money to her every month.
Now, she didn't even know where that card was.
Five was stunned. "I can't compare to you when it comes to being careless."
Li Yi smiled and said, "I remember that you used to have a girl called Pan Yueyue by your side. She was amazing. She could actually split bricks with her bare hands. Where is she now?"
Five said, "She went back to her hometown a long time ago. She opened a few gyms in Cangzhou in one go. The year before last, her son came here for university and she even brought him to visit me. Anyway, she did her best and I never mistreated her."
Li Kuo had been upstairs for a while, but there was still no movement. He couldn't hear anything from downstairs.
Li Yi asked curiously, "Could Uncle be outside …"
Five said, "It's common for men to look at the pot while eating from the bowl. After being married for a long time, the feelings between the two of them will fade. Even the smelly dog poop outside smells good. There's no need to make a fuss about it."
Li Yi said in surprise, "Uncle doesn't look like that kind of person."
Five said, "What do you mean? He's always been like that. It's fine if he breaks it off while Peng Yue doesn't know. If he doesn't, it might be another tragedy. "
