"Right? An An, you have to listen to Auntie."
Yan Yang said.
Xia An An saw that the two of them seemed to be singing a duet and felt a bit helpless. "Alright then, if you're tired, just tell me and I'll carry it."
"Alright!"
Yan Yang said this, but he didn't even say that he was tired when they reached home. He easily carried the suitcase and handbag upstairs. When they reached home, because no one had lived here for a while, there was a musty smell in the house. It wasn't too pleasant to smell.
"Thank you so much for today, Yan Yang."
Xia An An thanked him.
Yan Yang's forehead was slightly sweaty. He used his sleeve to wipe the sweat and revealed a smile. "You're welcome."
There was nothing in the house. The water had been stored for so many days, so it definitely couldn't be drunk. Yan Yang was now hot and thirsty. Xia An An also felt a bit apologetic, so he said to his adoptive mother: "It's almost time for dinner. Come back after dinner to clean up."
"Alright."
The adoptive mother replied. She smiled at Yan Yang and said: "Yan Yang, let's go out and eat first."
"Eh, aren't you guys going to clean up first? It'll probably be very late by the time you come back. After cleaning up, it'll probably be even later. Might as well clean up now. Since I'm here, I can help out. "
"How embarrassing."
The adoptive mother said with a smile.
Yan Yang said: "Auntie, what's there to be embarrassed about? We used to be such good neighbors. Don't both families help each other out whenever there's a problem? "
Yan Yang knew how to speak, and every word he said was reasonable.
He coaxed his adoptive mother into a happy mood with just a few words.
She nodded and said: "Alright, alright. Then I'll have to trouble you, Yan Yang."
"It's nothing. Auntie, you don't have to say thank you to me. I feel embarrassed."
"Alright, alright, alright." Xia An'an originally wanted to refuse, but who knew that her adoptive mother and Yan Yang were singing the same tune, and she couldn't get a word in edgewise. In the end, her adoptive mother pulled her to the side and said, "An'an, I think that Yan Yang is a really good lad. He's done so many things for us the moment we met.
Would he do that? Moreover, his conditions are very good. There will definitely be many girls chasing after him. You have to keep a close eye on him! If you miss this opportunity, you won't get another one. "
Xia An 'an passed the pillowcase to his adoptive mother and said, "You should wash this too."
The adoptive mother held the pillowcase and looked at Xia An 'an somewhat reproachfully.
Xia An'an felt uncomfortable being stared at by his foster mother and sighed, "Mom, there are some things that can't be rushed. I know that Yan Yang is a good person, and I will consider it. Can you give me some time?"
"Alright, but you must hold on to this child, understand?"
"Got it, got it."
Xia An'an sighed.
She saw that Yan Yang was still mopping the floor in the living room. His lips were a little chapped, and he was probably very thirsty. However, he didn't say a word and continued to clean without complaint. She lowered her eyes and her heart skipped a beat.
"Mom, there's no more detergent at home. I'm going out for a while. Do you guys have anything to bring?"
"An'an, buy another clothes rack. We don't have enough clothes racks."
"Okay."
Xia An'an went to the small supermarket in the neighborhood to buy detergent and clothes racks. She also took a few bottles of water along the way.
When she returned, Yan Yang was still helping to wipe the dust on the balcony.
She took a bottle of water and handed it to Yan Yang, saying, "Yan Yang, you write for a while. Drink some water."
Yan Yang's eyes lit up when he saw the water that Xia An'an handed over.
"An'an, how did you know that I was thirsty?"
Xia An'an smiled speechlessly.
How many people could be so shameless that they couldn't even notice this?
"Drink some water first."
"Okay."
Yan Yang unscrewed the bottle cap and gulped down the water in a few mouthfuls. It was obvious that he was really thirsty.
Xia An'an felt a little guilty. He had helped her so much that she almost didn't have any water to drink. It was really not bad that he was willing to work hard without complaint.
The three of them worked until seven o 'clock in the evening.
The house was already clean and looked brand new.
"We're finally done cleaning."
Her adoptive mother said.
Xia An'an took her bag and said, "Let's go out and eat."
"Okay."
"I know a good restaurant. The food is very good. Let's go there."
Yan Yang said.
Xia An'an was originally worried about where to eat because she was very frugal with her adoptive mother and didn't usually go to restaurants. She didn't know which restaurant was good and which one was bad. Now that she had Yan Yang, it was a great help.
Yan Yang took them to a nearby restaurant that had a particularly good business. It should be dinner time and there were many people. Xia An'an was a little worried that there wouldn't be any seats, but Yan Yang seemed to be familiar with the boss, so the boss still found them a seat.
The three of them sat down.
"Auntie, you order."
Yan Yang said.
Her adoptive mother waved her hand and said, "Forget it, forget it. I don't know what's good. An'an will order."
Xia An'an also said, "I haven't eaten here before. Since you're a regular here, you must know what's good. It's better that you order."
"Is that so? I'll order then."
Yan Yang ordered two meat dishes, one vegetable dish, and one soup. He said, "The portions here are quite large. These are enough."
"Okay."
Her adoptive mother smiled.
While waiting for the dishes, Yan Yang's gaze occasionally glanced at Xia An'an. Xia An'an was absent-minded and didn't notice, but her adoptive mother, who was sitting next to her, saw it clearly. She joked, "Yan Yang, why do you keep staring at my An'an?"
"Ah!"
Yan Yang was startled and quickly retracted his gaze. He said nervously, "No, nothing … Auntie, you must be mistaken."
"My eyes are very good. How could I be mistaken?"
Xia An'an also came back to her senses. She looked at Yan Yang and subconsciously covered the scar on her face with her hair. Seeing her action, Yan Yang quickly explained, "An'an, I don't mind the scar on your face. You don't have to do this."
"Oh …"
Xia An'an replied faintly.
Yan Yang became even more anxious and said, "It's true. I've always thought that you're very pretty. That scar of yours is nothing. Moreover, your personality is good and you're independent. You're much better than those girls!"
Yan Yang's eloquence was defeated in front of Xia An'an. It could be seen how nervous he was now.
Seeing him like this, Xia An'an couldn't help but laugh.
"It's okay. You don't have to be so nervous."
"You're not angry with me, right?"
Yan Yang asked carefully.
Xia An'an shook her head. "I'm not angry."
Only then did Yan Yang put his heart back into his stomach.
Yan Yang's dishes were indeed good. Whether it was the color or the taste, they were all very good. When Xia An'an went to pay the bill, Yan Yang also followed. Xia An'an emphasized his stance. "I said it's my treat today."
