Chapter 230: Chapter 231 Fireworks

Xu Ying kicked small stones as she unhappily headed back home.

Mrs. Xu was overjoyed when she saw her daughter, pulling her into the kitchen immediately, “Try the fish I made, how is it?”

Mrs. Xu praised my skills with a face full of enthusiasm.

Xu Ying looked at the sweet and sour carp her mother had made—it looked good. She picked up her chopsticks and took a bite, then chewed a few times with a look of surprise, “Mom, it’s delicious.”

Her mom’s cooking skills had improved by leaps and bounds!

Mrs. Xu, seeing her daughter compliment the fish she made, smiled so wide her lips nearly reached her ears, “As long as it’s delicious, that’s what matters.”

It wasn’t for nothing that she had spent so long learning.

“Little sister, go inside for now,” Third Brother Xu said, holding some firecrackers and hanging them on the clothes rack in the courtyard.

Xu Ying saw this and ran under the eaves with her hands covering her ears.

As Mr. Xu lit the firecrackers, the crackling sound erupted along with the ringing of the New Year’s bell.

The sound of firecrackers in the Xu Family courtyard had just ended when those from other households began to sound.

The crackling noise went on nonstop.

“Yingying, let’s go out and play,” Sister Daya and Xu Jingjing ran into the house simultaneously, dragging Xu Ying to go out.

“Remember to come back for dinner!” Mrs. Xu shouted.

Xu Ying replied, and then she was pulled by the two to the foot of the hill behind the house.

“Xu Ying, Happy New Year!”

A familiar voice sounded, and Xu Ying’s face lit up with surprise as she lifted her head.

Huo Chen stood on the slope, holding a match and directly lighting the fireworks on the hillside before leaping down from the mountain.

He strode towards Xu Ying.

The fireworks lit up the whole starry sky along with their sound.

“Wow, it’s so beautiful,” This was the first time both Xu Jingjing and Sister Daya had seen fireworks, and their eyes showed novelty and surprise.

Xu Ying had seen these things before, but no one had ever set them off for her; this was the first time someone had set off fireworks to please her.

“I heard that city girls all like to see this, so I bought some back, they really are beautiful,” Huo Chen said, looking at the fireworks.

“This is for you.” He proudly took out a red headband and a scarf.

He had originally thought about buying more gifts for Xu Ying, but ever since he saw her before and noticed her obsession with money…

He knew that nothing could compare to giving cash.

Then, he also took out a passbook and handed it to Xu Ying.

Xu Ying’s eyes widened as she looked at the passbook in her hand and whispered in Huo Chen’s ear, “Did you rob a bank?”

The scent of the young girl and the sound of her breathing invaded Huo Chen’s ear, tickling and electrifying him, making him feel goosebumps all over, and his throat rolled up and down.

“No, I earned it.”

“How come it’s so much?” A whole fifty thousand! Having made so much in just half a month indicated how dangerous it must have been.

Looking at Huo Chen, Xu Ying rarely showed such deep concern, “You’re not allowed to go there again! What am I supposed to do if something happens to you?”

Huo Chen let out a light chuckle, his finger lightly grazing Xu Ying’s nose tip, “I thought you didn’t care about me!”

Xu Ying was annoyed, feigning anger, “How could I not!”

“Then why do you keep saying it’s not suitable to be in a relationship and talk about breaking up so easily?” Mentioning this darkened Huo Chen’s eyes as he looked at Xu Ying as if he wanted to devour her.

Xu Ying felt vaguely guilty, with her head becoming even lower.

“Cough cough! We’re still here, and you’re already trying to bully my cousin, Huo Chen, that’s not acceptable,” Xu Jingjing couldn’t help speaking up when she saw her own cousin looking so pitiful and bullied.

Hearing the voice, Xu Ying, delighted, lifted her head and quickly ran to Xu Jingjing’s side.

Huo Chen found himself unable to argue his case.

“Huo Chen, when are you going to clear things up with my uncle and the rest?” Xu Jingjing looked up and asked, “A romance without the intention of marriage is just fooling around. Now that you’re together, you should start planning for marriage.”

Xu Ying was dumbstruck.

Holding back a smile, Huo Chen said gravely, “I’ll visit Yingying’s house in the next few days, but I don’t know if Yingying is willing.”

“She definitely is,” Xu Jingjing said directly.

“Big sister,” Xu Ying protested anxiously.

Xu Jingjing glanced at her, “What’s up? You wouldn’t be unwilling, right?”

Lu Daya also played the role of a divine helper, persuading, “Yingying, those who date without the intention of marrying are just playing games. You can’t be one to play games, nor can you give Huo Chen the chance to do so.” Towards the end, Lu Daya’s expression obviously fell.

Xu Ying shot herself in the foot. She looked at Huo Chen and said righteously, “Even if we meet the parents, you can’t bully me. If you bully me, I’ll break up with you!”

Huo Chen’s face lit up with joy, and he vowed excitedly like a child, “I won’t!”

“That’s good,” Xu Ying said and sent Huo Chen away.

There had been too many changes in this lifetime, the situation with Sun Yiliang and Sister Daya took her by surprise, “Sister Daya, when do you plan to meet the parents with Mr. Sun? Are you preparing to get married?”

“Daya, you’re in a relationship?” Xu Jingjing ignited the gossip in her heart, leaned forward eagerly, and stared at Lu Daya with wide, sparkling eyes.

Lu Daya did not hide it and nodded her head, but her expression was somewhat worried. She looked at Xu Ying and vented all the dissatisfaction she had accumulated over the days.

“I don’t know if I want to continue dating him. I’m not getting any younger, and my parents hope that I can get married soon. Yet Sun Yiliang keeps avoiding the subject of marriage. A few days ago, I mentioned it to him, and he just said he’s still young and wants to wait a few more years to get married.”

“I don’t know if I should keep waiting!” Lu Daya said with a painful look on her face.

But she felt somewhat reluctant to break up after dating for half a year.

“Is he good to you?” Xu Jingjing asked.

Lu Daya nodded.

“How does he treat you well?” Xu Ying asked, curious to see someone else’s experience.

Lu Daya lifted her head, her eyes brightening noticeably as she said, “Whenever the weather changes, he always reminds me to wear more clothes so I don’t catch a cold. He says when he earns money, he’ll buy me clothes, will treat me well after we get married, and also won’t let me do all the household chores alone…”

After listening, Xu Jingjing immediately became angry, “Sister Daya, are you being silly? These things count as treating you well? Just talk? Who can’t do that!”

“Sister Daya, to see if a man truly cares for you, you have to see if he is willing to spend money on you. Anyone can say sweet things, but you have to see if he’s really invested in you.” Xu Ying felt Daya was beyond help, the last lesson had been in vain.

“But he still has to support his sister!” Lu Daya hesitated.

Xu Jingjing, who was quick to anger, couldn’t hold back anymore, “His sister is grown up already, she doesn’t need his support. If he needs to support her now, what about later? When you’re married and have kids, will he still need to support his sister? Will you be the one providing for your children? Sister Daya, this man is just a freeloader. Don’t let his sweet words deceive you. Break up with him quickly!”

Xu Jingjing’s temper just couldn’t be suppressed.
