Chapter 97: A Disappointed Sister

Under the big locust tree by the pond, several old people were sitting on small stools doing needlework, while a few snotty children were playing nearby.

As she walked over, the elderly people looked at her suspiciously, wondering who she was related to.

Second auntie was also there, sewing a shoe insole. She ran the needle through her hair a few times, looked at it a few times, and thought it looked familiar. She tentatively asked, 'Is this Yu Xuan back?'

'Second auntie, it's me. How are you?' Feng Yu Xuan stopped and asked, unconsciously adopting the accent of the city.

'Not bad, not bad. Didn't your parents say they'd be back in a few days? Why are you back today?'

Oh, my parents won't be back for a few days. 'They told me that I'm not busy these two days, so I came back to visit first.'

Feng Yuxuan took out some oranges from the plastic bag and gave them to the children who had gathered around her, "Here, have some oranges.'

At this time, the other elderly people also greeted her, "Oh, it's Yuxuan, you've changed so much! This outfit really looks good.'

Feng Yuxuan smiled modestly, a little pleased with herself.

'You haven't eaten yet, have you? Come, let's go home with me.' Second aunt packed up her sewing kit, picked up a small stool, and pulled Feng Yuxuan towards home.

When they crossed the ditch by the pond, Feng Yuxuan accidentally twisted her ankle again. Her auntie laughed at her, 'Your shoes are nice, but with such high heels, aren't they uncomfortable? These kinds of shoes are suitable in the city, but here, I'd better replace you some cloth shoes!'

Dinner was also eaten at her second uncle's house, and it was then that she learned about the family's situation. Her parents and younger brother were actually all able to earn money! She had a plan in mind, thinking that she should first go replace her younger brother and try to persuade him. When her parents returned, she would ask him to help persuade her parents as well. That way, she would have a better chance of success.

After spending the day at her second uncle's house, Feng Yuxuan went to her grandfather's house.

She was actually a little worried when she went to see her grandfather. After not returning home for so many years, would he scold her?

Fortunately, Mei Jianzhong was still very happy to see her, and her aunt kept saying how much prettier she had become, looking at her clothes with some envy.

After having lunch and taking a nap, she finally made it to school.

To be honest, Feng Yuxuan felt a little resentful as soon as she entered the school gate. She had never even gone to junior high school, and even though she didn't want to go and her grades couldn't compare to her younger brother's, if her parents had insisted on not letting her go out, she would have had no choice but to go to school. To be honest, her parents were still a little biased.

Through the window, she looked at the students in the classroom with mixed feelings. A few girls looked at her clothes and envied her, but she also envied those girls a little!

Feng Yiping was looking down, taking notes, when he suddenly felt a lull in the class. He looked up and saw the teacher stop writing on the blackboard and ask Feng Yuxuan a question. He quickly stood up and ran out of the classroom.

Feng Yuxuan looked at her younger brother in front of her. He had grown taller and seemed to have become fairer. The clothes he was wearing were all bought, and at least among the students, he was considered well-dressed. Seeing himself, she thought, he is a bit taller, and it seems that there is some kind of... distance?

Not sure what to say, Feng Yuxuan heard that her parents had not returned yet, so Feng Yiping gave her the key and told her to go home first. There were only a few residential buildings in the village, so the place was easy to replace.

When he came back and sat down, Feng Wen asked him, 'Is this your sister? She's changed a lot!'

How could she not have changed, Feng Yiping thought to himself. I guess all the money she earns is spent on clothes.

When he went home in the evening, there was naturally ready-made food to eat, the room had been cleaned, and the clothes he had changed yesterday were all hanging on the balcony.

'Brother, how much did you pay to rent this house? How much living expenses do your parents give you each month?'

'My parents don't have to pay. I earn it all myself.'

'I heard your uncle and grandfather say that you have really grown up and can earn your own money. I haven't sent any money home for all these years I've been away, you don't resent me, do you?' Feng Yuxuan put down her bowl and stared at Feng Yiping and asked.

It's useless to resent him, "How could I? Mum and Dad and I all know how hard it is for you," Feng Yiping said with his head bowed, 'Just take care of yourself.'

Feng Yuxuan didn't notice the resentment hidden in Feng Yiping's words, and she let out a sigh of relief. Mum and Dad don't resent me, that's good!

'Brother, how much have you saved up?' Feng Yuxuan asked casually.

'A few thousand, Grandpa is helping me save it,' Feng Yuxuan felt more at ease after hearing this.

However, when Feng Yiping returned from his evening study session the next night, Feng Yuxuan suggested that she wanted to give him ten thousand yuan from the family and that she would also go to the city to open a store, Feng Yiping refused without even thinking.

Of course Feng Yiping refused. He remembered very clearly that after working for two years, he finally paid off all the family's external debts. In the third year, he finally saved a little money. At that time, Feng Yuxuan already had a boyfriend. One day, she suddenly called him and borrowed all the tens of thousands of dollars he had saved. She also said that she wanted to open a store. The next day after he received the phone call, he took the money over. Then, there was no then.

I heard that the shop only lasted three months before it closed. As for the money he lent her, he never mentioned it once, and neither did Feng Yuxuan.

He understood perfectly well that if there was an existing business, his sister could handle it, and it might even develop. However, without anyone to supervise her or guide her, she really couldn't run any business. Besides, the family didn't have enough money to open a shop in the provincial capital, so where would they replace the spare cash to help her?

Feng Yuxuan explained again and again, but Feng Yiping just would not agree. 'If the shop you are working in now can be transferred to you, I agree to lend you the money, but if you replace a new place to open a shop, I won't agree. And my parents have also said that they will bring you with them to the provincial capital when they return this time, and you will help in the shop when we open it in the provincial capital.'

No matter how much her sister lobbied, Feng Yiping just would not relent. Just kidding, these small shops, location is the most important thing, good locations have already been rented by others long ago, of course they can't afford to rent now, and poor locations don't guarantee business.

And unlike opening a noodle shop, the bulk of the cost of a noodle shop is rent, as well as decoration and some necessary kitchen and bathroom equipment, but a small shop is different, the goods that come into the store account for the bulk of the cost.

Feng Yuxuan was very unhappy, the situation at home was better than he thought, but he never expected to run into a brick wall with his brother. In the following days, she argued with Feng Yiping every day, and each time she got the same answer. It seems that not only would her brother not lend her the money, he would not even talk to her parents on her behalf.

When she got angry, she went to her grandparents' house again and ignored Feng Yiping.

Feng Yiping finally had some peace and quiet. These days, his sister first talked to him, then argued with him, and it was really enough. It made him so frustrated that he couldn't get anything done after returning home these two days, and he even wanted to live in the dormitory at school.

When it was time to collect the chestnuts, my parents still hadn't returned. But they had a reason. After collecting the chestnuts, several families were going to the province in a few days. Feng Zhenchang and Mei Yiliang were going around these days, helping them replace a good place to do business and also help them replace a house nearby.

So, this year's chestnuts were collected by my grandfather, my eldest uncle and Feng Yuxuan. However, this year's chestnut harvest was the easiest, because people helped out at several stores in the provincial capital. More hands make light work, and in two days' time, all the chestnuts were collected and brought home, and everyone helped to peel them for another two days.

So, by the time Feng Zhenchang and his brother returned, the chestnuts were already being dried on the threshing floor.
