Chapter 82: Really Good

"Aunt Guan, you are my godmother now, but calling me godmother is a bit awkward."

"Why do you still recognize your godmother?"

Xu Jinqiu was a little surprised, but didn't find it strange. Zhao Yuanyuan had been sweet-talking since she was a child. After moving in, Guan Yuemei treated her like her own daughter.

"You went to Hong Kong to have fun, and I was left here alone. I felt embarrassed after a while. Guan Xiaoyu suggested, 'Let's take you as our godmother,' and that's how it happened."

"Okay, sisters have become sisters-in-law."

Xu Jinqiu raised the corner of her mouth slightly and coughed lightly: "Sister Yuanyuan, hurry up and call me sister-in-law. There is a gift."

"Comrade Xu Jinqiu, you've been to Hong Kong and you've become so arrogant. Now you're showing off in front of me?" Zhao Yuanyuan was furious and reached out to tickle Xu Jinqiu.

The two girls were playing around when Guan Yuemei came out with Chen Yi and Nannan: "Qiu'er is back. Let me see if you've lost weight. Well, if you haven't, then it's good. Go inside and have a rest."

Holding Xu Jinqiu's hand and entering the house, Guan Yuemei asked anxiously, "How was it going to Xiangjiang? Are the food and accommodation all right?"

"Auntie, don't worry. Brother Bingzi came to pick me up right after I got off the plane. You don't know, but everything including food, accommodation and daily necessities has been arranged for me over there..."

Guan Yuemei breathed a sigh of relief after listening to Xu Jinqiu's story, but Chen Fan, who was guarding two suitcases and two large packages, smiled bitterly.

"Isn't this Xiaofan, the one who came back from Hong Kong?"

Aunt Wang came over from outside, shaking a large palm leaf fan in her hand. "Wow, you bought so many things. You must have made a fortune in Hong Kong."

"Aunt Wang, are you back from visiting? How did you make such a fortune? These things were all given by Brother Bingzi's family. I didn't spend a penny of my own money." Chen Fan explained.

Aunt Wang is the loudspeaker in the alley. If she doesn't explain it clearly, the whole alley will know tomorrow that she went to Hong Kong to make a fortune.

If things go wrong, someone might come to borrow money.

"That's impossible. Giving so many things?" Aunt Wang was shocked. She saw Chen Fan going out that day and he only brought a suitcase.

Now it's two suitcases and two packages.

"I can't help it. Brother Bingzi's family is rich and friendly. I have no choice but to accept him."

"You don't know, his family lives in Hong Kong, in a three-story building, with air conditioners and color TVs in every room, three cars, and quite a few servants."

"After we got there, our food, clothing, housing and transportation were all taken care of by Ren Bingzi's family. I even felt embarrassed about the food and the things we had to take."

Aunt Wang was so furious when she heard this. Are the capitalists in the old society no more than this?
If I had known that Li Hongbing's family was so rich, I should have been nicer to Li Hongbing. Even if I had helped him a little, I could have shared some of the benefits today.

Just look at Chen Fan and you will know. He just helped Li Hongbing a little bit, and yet he got Li Hongbing's house, had the opportunity to go to Hong Kong, and got so many things.

I don’t know what kind of fun things they are.

"Auntie Wang, thank you for your help. I will help you look after it for a while. I will carry it back in two batches."

Chen Fan picked up the two suitcases and was walking inside when he heard Aunt Wang's voice from behind him: "Hurry up and move them. I'll keep an eye on them for you. I guarantee they won't get lost."

Chen Fan came out again soon, and Aunt Wang took the opportunity to pick up a package: "This package is big, it may be difficult to carry two. Auntie will help you carry one."

"Thank you for your hard work. Please be careful and don't hurt your waist."

Carrying the package back to the middle courtyard, Chen Fan opened a package of candies and grabbed a handful of candies bought in Hong Kong: "Auntie Wang, these are all bought in Hong Kong, you can take them back to sweeten your mouth."

"Oh, these are candies from Hong Kong. I must bring some back for my grandson to try."

Aunt Wang politely took the candy and asked again, "By the way, Xiaofan, did you bring any coffee back? If so, could you share some with me?"

"Ah..." Chen Fan was stunned.

Is coffee so popular? Even the hutong ladies have followed the trend and switched from tea to coffee?
"I have a relative who lives in Hong Kong. Some time ago, I sent her a lot of things, including coffee. She also gave me a small bag."

Aunt Wang smacked her lips, looking unsatisfied: "Coffee is really good. I drink a cup before going to bed at night, and I can't sleep the whole night. I think this thing is really nutritious and strong."

"Pfft..."

Just as Xu Jinqiu and Zhao Yuanyuan were about to laugh out loud, Chen Fan glared at them, causing the two girls to blush. They had no choice but to turn away, fearing that they would not be able to hold back their laughter out loud.

Chen Fan then said to Aunt Wang, "I didn't know coffee was so nutritious. I should have brought some back earlier. The main problem is the taste. It's too bitter. I can't drink it."

Aunt Wang hummed, "That's a pity. Good medicine tastes bitter. It's normal for young people to not be used to it."

Chen Fan nodded and said, "You are right. I missed out on some good stuff this time. Next time I go to Hong Kong, I will definitely buy more and give you another bag."

"Then I'll remember it. Okay, you guys can continue chatting." Aunt Wang stuffed the candy into her pocket and went out, fanning herself with a large palm-leaf fan.

"Why are you so mean?"

Xu Jinqiu couldn't help but pat Chen Fan several times, giggling softly. She almost couldn't stand, and it was fortunate that Chen Fan supported her.

Is coffee really good for you? Is it really that strong?
Who did Aunt Wang learn this from? Chen Fan did the same. Not only did he not remind her, he also kept going along with her. If Aunt Wang knew about this, she would be furious.

"Then what can I say?" Chen Fan smiled bitterly. He had to hold back his smile with great difficulty.

"Why don't you just say no?"

Zhao Yuanyuan rolled her eyes at him. This guy was really mean. He was talking nonsense in a serious manner.

If you don't know, you might think we're talking about tonics. "Just say it directly?"

Chen Fan chuckled and looked at the little girl with contempt: "If you say it directly, Aunt Wang will just feel that her IQ has been insulted and think that you are calling her stupid."

"She might feel insulted and start a fight with you. If you encounter such a situation, just go along with what others say. Don't try to show that you are smarter than others."

"And your brain is so stupid. It's a good thing you switched to a makeup artist position, which is a technical job. If you switched to an administrative position, you would definitely be tricked to death."

Hearing this, Zhao Yuanyuan was stunned.

It seems, as if, it will really be like this!
But Chen Fan's contemptuous tone made people uncomfortable. Zhao Yuanyuan decisively took Guan Yuemei's arm and said, "Mom, look, Chen Fan is bullying people."

Guan Yuemei glared and was about to deal with Chen Fan.

"Wait a minute, what's your name?"

Chen Fan quickly stretched out his hand to stop his mother: "You call my mother mom? That's not right. Qiu'er hasn't changed her words yet. You called her mom first. What does that mean?"

Guan Yuemei slapped her son and said, "You are so grown up that you still care about me? Yuanyuan is my new goddaughter. Do you have any objection?"

"So if I go to Hong Kong for a few days, you can find me a sister?"

"What, you're not happy?"

Feeling the murderous intent in his mother's eyes, Chen Fan decisively admitted his defeat: "I am happy, why wouldn't I be happy? It would be great to have another sister. Sister Yuanyuan, hurry up and call me brother!"

"Don't even think about it!" Zhao Yuanyuan spat.

"Call me brother, there will be a red envelope!"

"Ha ha……"

Zhao Yuanyuan rolled her eyes, pulled Xu Jinqiu aside and asked her to talk about the latest news in Hong Kong. She was also quite curious about that place.

Not long after, the yard gradually became lively. People who went to work came back one after another, and bursts of smoke rose from the yard again.

The Chen family’s dinner was still rich.

After dinner, Xu Jinqiu began to distribute gifts. She brought back quite a lot of things, but they were basically practical, mostly clothes and the like.

It was mainly clothes, all bought in the mall. Each person bought two sets. Chen Musheng and Zhang Yunze each bought an extra set of belts.

Guan Yuemei, Chen Min and Zhao Yuanyuan had more small accessories, all made of silver. They were not too expensive, but the styles were very trendy.

There were a lot of things given to Chen Yi and Nannan, including all kinds of gadgets and two sets of Barbie dolls, which the two girls loved very much.

The last thing was for Guan Xiaoyu. In addition to clothes, Chen Fan specially bought her a Polaroid camera and a lot of photo paper.

This girl particularly likes photography and videography. After graduating from university in her previous life, she spent a lot of money on equipment. It was only because her family was well-off that most people could not afford it.

"Sister-in-law is still better, not like someone else."

Guan Xiaoyu was holding a Polaroid camera, and while she was happy, she also did not forget to mock Chen Fan: "Except for his good taste in finding a wife, there is nothing good about him."

"Guan Xiaoyu, I picked that for you."

Chen Fan rolled his eyes, not wanting to bother with this girl who was still in her rebellious phase. He picked up the remaining things and walked to the backyard: "I'm going to go back and rest first."

"Qiu'er, you should also take a rest. You've been on the plane for a whole day." Guan Yuemei said with concern.

"Then I'll go back first."

Xu Jinqiu didn't hesitate and pulled Zhao Yuanyuan to the backyard. As for Guan Xiaoyu, she was showing off her Polaroid camera. She had been coveting this thing for a long time.

Back in the room in the backyard, Xu Jinqiu fell directly onto the bed: "Finally I can have a good rest. My bones were almost broken after this day."

Zhao Yuanyuan lay down beside her and looked at Xu Jinqiu jokingly: "Comrade Qiu'er, let me ask you a question. When you go to Xiangjiang, will you live in a room by yourself or with Chen Fan?"

Xu Jinqiu was stunned for a moment and her face turned red with embarrassment instantly.

Zhao Yuanyuan chuckled and said, "Comrade Qiu'er, it seems that you live together, so are you guys doing that?"

"Zhao Yuanyuan, are you a hooligan?"

Xu Jinqiu's whole body turned red, and she reached out to tickle Zhao Yuanyuan, but unfortunately Zhao Yuanyuan was stronger than her and soon overpowered her.

Zhao Yuanyuan took advantage of the situation to hold Xu Jinqiu down and pinched her cheeks: "Comrade Qiu'er, let me ask you something. How does that feel?"

Xu Jinqiu was embarrassed and annoyed, and said angrily: "Zhao Yuanyuan, you are a real female hooligan. Why do you say anything? If you want to know, go find a man yourself."

"Sisters are not in a hurry to find a man."

Zhao Yuanyuan giggled and looked at Xu Jinqiu jokingly: "Qiu'er, just tell me, just to satisfy your curiosity."

"Zhao Yuanyuan..."

Xu Jinqiu felt embarrassed and annoyed, but she didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I really want to know, how about I lend Chen Fan to you, and you can experience it yourself?"

PS: I agreed to adjust my work and rest schedule, but the result is that it gets later and later, and I just got up ~ I want to cry, please vote!
