Only After I Was Reborn Did I Realize That I Had Childhood Sweethearts

Chapter 46: If We Can Really Become a Family

Xiang Xiaoxia had recently managed to get Mei Ya into kindergarten and found a job as a clothing salesperson. Although the pay was not high, the jobs working hours were not long and was easy.

She thought she could work for a while, but now she had to start considering moving.

Just the thought of moving gave Xiang Xiaoxia a headache. She would have to sell the house, change schools, and buy a new house, a lot of troublesome things.

Hes just a mid-level cadre in the city, not a director. Hes showing off all day long.

Xiang Xiaoxia complained about her husbands arrogance, but soon she heard a knocking sound.

Im coming, Im coming.

It should be Mei Fang coming back from school at this time, why didnt he bring his keys?

As soon as Xiang Xiaoxia opened the door, she saw two familiar girls rushing towards her.

Aunt Mei, can we come to your house to do homework?

Hello! Of course you can.

Xiang Xiaoxia looked behind them and didnt see her son.

Where is Mei Fang?

Xia Yuan smiled and explained, Mei Fang is on duty for cleaning today, so he will come home later. We have guests at home today, so we can only come to Aunt Meis house.

Thats fine. Where do you want to do your homework? In the study, living room, or Mei Fangs room? If you want to play on the computer, you can play for a while and do your homework when Mei Fang comes back.

Aunt Mei, if youre currently not watching TV, we can do our homework in the living room.

Im not. I have to prepare dinner and Little Ya also needs to be picked up later.

Aunt Mei, Ill help you pick up Little Ya!

Xia Yuan quickly raised her hand and said, Though Mei Ya just started kindergarten, and I have never picked her up before.

Do you know where it is? Its on the side of the county kindergarten, not the one you attended, the Grain Kindergarten.

I know! Mei Fang took me there to play before.

I see

Xia Yuan said and put down her school bag. She whispered a few words to Lin Youxi, and the two of them high-fived each other. Xia Yuan then set off to pick up Mei Ya.

What secrets are these two children discussing?

After years of getting along, Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi were basically free to come and go in Mei Fangs house. Xiang Xiaoxia never worried about their character. After Xia Yuan left, she went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Soon, Lin Youxi also came to the kitchen. Xiang Xiaoxia was picking vegetables at this time.

Aunt Mei, what delicious food are you having tonight? Lin Youxi curiously observed with her hands behind her back.

Well stir-fried green beans with pork, green pepper and egg, and a plate of Shanghai greens. Are you and Xia Yuan eating at our house tonight? Whatever youd like to eat, Auntie will make it for you.

Xiang Xiaoxia now feels guilty and indulgent towards Lin Youxi and Xia Yuan, after all, they wont be able to eat here next year.

Lin Youxi waved her hand and said, You dont have to specially cook for us. We all like whatever Aunt Mei cooks!

You, silly girl Do you still remember? When you were in kindergarten, you said my cooking was delicious, but you didnt dare to tell me directly. Instead, you secretly told Mei Fang, and then let Mei Fang tell me.

Of course I remember.

Lin Youxi squatted down, propped her chin and said to Xiang Xiaoxia, I still remember. I was so scared on the first day I came to Aunt Meis house. I was afraid that you would find me too messy and kick me out. It was raining heavily outside, and there was loud thunder. I was extremely scared.

Hahaha, silly girl, how could Auntie do such a thing.

Xiang Xiaoxia stroked Lin Youxis head, In the blink of an eye, youve grown up so much. Youre already at the age of understanding.

Aunt Mei, let me help you pick vegetables. You can go do something else.

Do you know how to do this? Xiang Xiaoxia seemed somewhat surprised.

I do! I often cook by myself at home. Lin Youxi wiped her nose, with a somewhat show-off meaning, My dad even praises me for cooking well.

Haha, youre really amazing

Xiang Xiaoxia saw Lin Youxi crushing the Shanghai green she bought, and quickly taught her the correct way to choose vegetables. Lin Youxi also realized that she had messed up her plan to win over Mei Fangs mother, and quickly apologized to Xiang Xiaoxia.

I-Im sorry, Aunt Mei! I didnt do well just now. I will definitely help you pick vegetables well from now on.

Her voice carried a bit of grievance and earnestness, hoping that Xiang Xiaoxia wouldnt dislike her.

But Xiang Xiaoxia became even more sympathetic towards her because of this action.

Because she thought that once her whole family left Baimei County, Lin Youxi would not only lose Mei Fang as a childhood playmate, but also such a warm home.

Although she already had Mei Ya as her daughter, Lin Youxi was still the original motivation for her to have a second child. Their relationship was so close that she couldnt let go.

Aunt Mei, how am I doing in choosing vegetables now? Lin Youxi cautiously asked Xiang Xiaoxia about her progress.

Good Its pretty good.

Xiang Xiaoxia touched Lin Youxis head, Youxi, Auntie wants to ask you, are you still upset about what we talked about last night?

Upon hearing this question, Lin Youxi was stunned for a moment.

But in the end, she chose to answer truthfully and nodded.

Im still very upset.

But, a family should be together.

Im just Mei Fangs friend, not Aunt Meis family. I cant I cant say anything.

Lin Youxi doesnt have very good acting skills, but she really cant bear to part ways with Mei Fang and his family, so her voice carries a hint of grievance.

In this timeline, the light shining into Lin Youxis heart is no longer just Xia Yuan alone, but also the whole Mei family. Her Aunt Mei, who is warm and hospitable, is also among them.

After listening to Lin Youxis statement, Xiang Xiaoxia suddenly felt something stuck in her throat, unable to swallow.

Dont dont say that. Auntie has always treated you like a daughter. You and Yuan Yuan, I have watched you both grow up. Auntie cant bear to let you go.

Then, can you not leave?

Lin Youxi never dared to ask this question.

Because a family should be together, this is what Lin Youxi just said.

A family should be together, a family should be together

Lin Youxi suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and a chord in her heart was touched.

Then if we can really become a family

Lin Youxi lowered her head and made a small muttering sound, In that case, can you not leave

Ah, you dont mean that thing, right?

Xiang Xiaoxia didnt expect Lin Youxi to say this, and for a while, she didnt know how to respond.

Knock, knock, knock.

The sound of knocking interrupted Lin Youxi and Xiang Xiaoxias thoughts. Xiang Xiaoxia hurriedly went to open the door, and as soon as she opened it, she saw her daughter Mei Ya, who looked aggrieved, hugging her mothers leg and begging persistently.

Mom, mom

Whats wrong, Little Ya? Why are you so clingy today

Mei Ya tightly hugged Xiang Xiaoxias thigh, buried her head for a long time before raising it, and said seriously to her mother, Mom, I made a lot of friends at kindergarten today. I really dont want to leave here!

Oh, you didnt I comfort you just yesterday?

Xiang Xiaoxia pulled Mei Ya and showed a distressed expression, while Xia Yuan, standing behind Mei Ya, made eye contact with Lin Youxi who had come out of the kitchen.

Xia Yuan made an OK gesture, indicating that Little Mei Ya had betrayed the family and officially joined the mission to save their childhood friend.

After nodding, Lin Youxi quickly shifted her gaze away from Xia Yuan, looking somewhat flustered.
