Chapter 247: Chapter 247: Deciding to Treat the Other Party Better
Nothing was said that night.
"Mom, what are we having for breakfast?" Early the next morning, Yang Chuxia saw that Ms. Wang was already busy in the kitchen, so she asked casually.
"Fried rice, Qingtong said yesterday that they wanted to have egg fried rice."
Yang Chuxia nodded and then suddenly said, "Mom, make a little more, and I’ll take a bowl to Brother An later."
Upon hearing this, Ms. Wang’s face looked a bit odd, thinking that her daughter was more outgoing than she thought, and wondered why she hadn’t noticed it before.
However, Ms. Wang still listened to Yang Chuxia’s words, made some more rice in a bigger pot, and added two more eggs.
While Yang Chuxia was cleaning her teeth with green salt and washing her face, Ms. Wang had almost finished the meal.
Yang Chuxia took a large bowl and filled it with rice, then added some side dishes on top, and carried it to Ye Zi’an’s house.
When she arrived at Ye Zi’an’s house, Ye Zi’an was tending the fire in front of the stove.
"Brother An, you can stop now, I brought you some food." When Ye Zi’an saw Yang Chuxia and thought about her declaring last night in front of many people that she fancied him, his handsome face blushed a little.
"Xiaxia, you came."
"Mhm, my mom made egg fried rice, so I brought a bowl for you." After what happened last night, Yang Chuxia acted as if nothing happened. There’s no helping it; she just had a thick skin.
Realizing that she had begun to like this handsome, slightly disabled boy, she loudly told people she fancied him. And after labeling him as hers, she decided to treat him even better than before.
"Great, I’ll come over now." Ye Zi’an then went to wash his hands.
"Brother An, you’re going to town later, aren’t you?" Yang Chuxia asked while twirling the pair of bracelets Ye Zi’an gave her.
Ye Zi’an looked at the bracelets, which had been adjusted to a smaller size that fit her perfectly, and his heart and eyes were filled with smiles.
"Yes, I’m going to the restaurant today."
"Then, I’ll go to town with you."
"Why would you go to town again? Weren’t you just there yesterday?" Ye Zi’an asked with some confusion.
Yang Chuxia thought to herself, I need to go to pick a gift for you, after all, you gave me a token of commitment, so I have to give you something in return.
"Of course, I have things I need to buy."
"Just tell me what you want to buy, and I’ll bring it back for you this evening. There’s no need to go to town for now, Constable Hong already said there’s been some trouble there again recently."
"No, I have to go myself." Yang Chuxia shook her head, insisting that she had to choose the gift personally.
Ye Zi’an looked at her and said, "Is it that important? If it’s not that important, you can buy it later. Uncle Dayong is going to your house to help today, I’m sure your mom won’t let you go to town by yourself."
Yang Chuxia thought about it, and it seemed to be true. Her mother would not feel comfortable allowing her to go to town with Brother An alone. Being able to go buy groceries yesterday afternoon was because her mother hadn’t reacted in time.
So Yang Chuxia looked apologetically at Brother An, "Alright then, I’ll go to town again some other day." With that, she left, not even taking the bowl with her.
However, her somewhat apologetic look left Ye Zi’an somewhat baffled.
Returning from Ye Zi’an’s house, Yang Chuxia had a few bites of food, then helped Ms. Wang with some housework. After a while, the people delivering seafood arrived, and the mother and daughter processed the seafood before preparing for lunch.
At around that time, Yang Dachuan would bring the prepared food to the laborers working in the fields.
This had been their routine for several days now.
