Chapter 55: Then Tell Me, Where Do You Think Im Good At?

After playing with Mei Ya for a while, Lin Youxi went to the kitchen to help Xiang Xiaoxia. Xiang Xiaoxia naturally didnt want Lin Youxi to do that.

Youre a guest today, Youxi. You can play with Mei Fang and Mei Ya, play games or anything. Auntie doesnt need your help here.

Its okay, Aunt Mei. I dont regard myself as an outsider.

As Lin Youxi spoke, she picked up a small stool and sat, helping to peel corn kernels. Youll be taking a car in the afternoon, and the road will definitely be bumpy and tiring. Ill help you share some of the hard work.

Your Uncle Mei will come to pick us up at the train station in Baizhou City. Its not tiring at all

Xiang Xiaoxia always had the intention to drive Lin Youxi away, but after so many years of getting along, Lin Youxi was no longer the timid and pitiful little girl she used to be. No matter how much her Aunt Mei urged her, she wouldnt budge.

Xiang Xiaoxia sighed helplessly.

This child has grown up and started to ignore advice

It seems like the rebellious phase has arrived.

But do you think Xiang Xiaoxia is happy?

She must be happy.

She found a well-behaved and obedient daughter out of nowhere.

No, it should be said that she found two.

After busying herself with preparations, Xiang Xiaoxia poked her head out of the kitchen and asked Mei Fang, who was playing video games with her sister.

This was the birthday gift Mei Fang gave to her sister, hoping that she would stop clamoring to use his computer once she had a game console.

Although it was an electronic product even older than arcade machines, it was still sold in small electrical appliance stores in the small county town. The Little Tyrant[1], a console that cost only a few dozen yuan, and a four-in-one cartridge cost 8 yuan. For Mei Fang, its something incredibly cheap.

Her sister treated it like a treasure, while Xiang Xiaoxia saw it as a great disaster. The family often had chaos because of the time spent playing video games.

Its almost time for lunch in half an hour! Mei Fang, if you have time, stop playing and call Yuan Yuan over for lunch.

I can just call her, and shell come.

Mei Fang said as he put down the controller and was about to go to the landline phone, but he was scolded by his mother.

You cant be so casual! The little girl is feeling sad right now. Whats wrong with going to invite her in person? Girls care about their image. You should be more considerate of her!

Okay, I got it.

Mei Fang secretly complained about his mother in his heart, It was clearly her who told me to keep a little distance from them, but now shes creating opportunities for me to interact with them everywhere. I really dont know what shes thinking.

What his mother was thinking wasnt that important, but Xia Yuans recent state was really worrying.

It was supposed to be a summer vacation that she should have enjoyed, but she had been torturing herself with constant practice exams because of her failure in the entrance exam.

Of course, Xia Yuan had always been seen as a good student by everyone, carrying a heavy burden of expectations, a burden Mei Fang can understand.

In these two lifetimes of studying, Mei Fang had seen many classmates who lost motivation and felt ashamed because they failed the exam. After all, in small county towns, the atmosphere is all about studying relentlessly. Everyone takes academics very seriously.

Perhaps it was because he didnt have such shame at the beginning that he ended up barely making it to a second-tier university.

Mei Fang pressed the electronic doorbell of Xia Yuans house, and the door slowly opened. Mei Fang walked in without waiting for someone to come out to greet him.

He opened the slightly ajar door and found his usual slippers on the shoe rack. As Mei Fang was putting the slippers on, he heard someone calling his name.

Hello, Teacher Yu.

Mei Fang greeted her elementary school homeroom teacher, and Teacher Yu quickly called Mei Fang over and asked him, Your mother and sister are going to Baizhou City today, right?

Yes. Mei Fang nodded, So I called Yuan Yuan yesterday and asked her to come to our house for lunch.

Yuan Yuan locked herself in her room to study last night, and she didnt let me in when I knocked on the door this morning. Can you persuade her not to do this?

Yes, I came here today for this.

By the way, Mei Fang, you dont have to call me Teacher anymore. Teacher Yu emphasized, Im not your homeroom teacher anymore, just call me Aunt Xia.

Speaking of which, Youxi and I learned cooking from Aunt Mei together, but Youxi surpassed me in no time.

Shes really talented. She ranked first in the whole class in the entrance exam, and shes good at playing games and catching dolls. I, on the other hand, cant do anything compared to her.

Thats not true. Youxi has her strengths, and you have yours.

Xia Yuan grabbed Mei Fangs arm.

Then tell me, where do you think Im good at?

That pleading expression

You dance well, you sing well, and also

Its quite simple to list Xia Yuans strengths. Mei Fang just listed a long list, and Xia Yuan had a proud expression on her face.

So cute!

Ah Fang, I was thinking, after Aunt Mei and Little Ya left, you would be bored at home alone. So, how about

Xia Yuan raised her head excitedly and stared at Mei Fang,

We spend the night at your house tonight?

Thanks for the chapter!

Also, Mei Fang should totally get Xia Yuan to teach him to cook then.

1. Distracts her a little bit (in a healthy way)from crazy studying.

2. Boosts her mood. (Right up her alley of things she likes to do.)

3. He learns to cook. (Everyone should be able to prepare food for themselves to eat, its a basic life skill.)
