Chu Shan had slept for a day and a night and was already very hungry. When he heard that there were spare ribs to eat, his mouth began to water.

He followed behind Xia Yiyi shyly and scratched his head, "I thought you didn't care about me anymore."

"Why shouldn't I care about you?" Xia Yiyi turned around and asked curiously.

Chu Shan tilted his head, squinted at the scorching sun in the sky, and stopped talking.

He had always been the unruly young master of the Chu family, but suddenly he was kicked out of the house and became a pauper with nothing. This was difficult to talk about and was too embarrassing.

At the same time, he was also a little worried, because Xia Yiyi approached him only because of his identity as the young master of the Chu family.

What if Xia Yiyi hasn't seen the news yet and is taking him in?

Chu Shan coughed dryly and followed Xia Yiyi into the unit door.

When they arrived at Xia Yiyi's house, Xia Yiyi was the first to go in and change into slippers.

Chu Shan did not follow in, but stood outside the door in a daze.

Xia Yiyi put on her slippers, turned around and asked, "What are you daydreaming about? Come into the house and close the door quickly. The air conditioner is on!"

Chu Shan looked at Xia Yiyi steadily, and smelled the aroma of pork ribs and rice wafting from the kitchen, which was very tempting.

At this moment, Chu Shan realized what the taste of home was.

It turns out that a home does not need to have gorgeous rooms or a comfortable living environment. As long as there is a full meal with good color, aroma and taste, that is the taste of home.

"Don't you know?" Chu Shan asked in a dry voice.

"Know what?" Xia Yiyi frowned.

When Grandma Xia saw the door open, she knew Chu Shan had come. She came out of the kitchen holding a spatula and wearing an apron, and looked at Chu Shan at the door with a smile. Her voice was gentle and kind.

"Why don't you come in? Grandma has made delicious food, come in quickly, wash your hands, and get ready to eat!"

Chu Shan looked at Xia Yiyi and Grandma Xia, and tried to open his mouth and make a weak sound.

"I...I was kicked out of the Chu family. I am no longer the young master of the Chu family!"

Xia Yiyi pulled Chu Shan into the room, closed the door, and threw him a pair of slippers.

"So what?"

"You...you don't care?" Chu Shan asked in surprise.

"What do you care about? If you are kicked out of the Chu family, you are no longer Chu Shan." Xia Yiyi walked to the bathroom, washed her hands and prepared to eat.

When she came out of the bathroom, Chu Shan was still standing at the door without changing his slippers.

"Why haven't you changed your shoes yet? Do you want me to change them for you myself?" Xia Yiyi said, and went into the kitchen to help.

Grandma Xia said with a smile, "Come in! You haven't been here for a few days, you must be missing grandma's cooking, right? Go wash your hands, the food will be ready soon."

Grandma Xia also entered the kitchen.

Chu Shan looked at them busy in the kitchen, as if everything was still the same as before, nothing had changed.

Is what they show real?

Peng Zi's parents were very kind to him before, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they treated him like their own son.

Many times, he was closer to Peng Zi's parents than to his own parents.

But when they learned that he was kicked out of the Chu family and all ties were severed, they immediately changed their attitude.

Suddenly became extremely strange and distant.

At that moment he realized that they were only after him because of his identity.

So what about Xia Yiyi and Grandma Xia?

Is it the same as well?

After changing his shoes, Chu Shan went into the bathroom to wash his hands.

He washed very slowly and carefully. In the past, when Grandma Xia asked him to wash his hands before eating, he would just rinse them casually.

But today, he was very careful and even cleaned the gaps between his nails.

By the time he dried his hands and came out of the bathroom, Grandma Xia had already brought the food to the table.

Xia Yiyi is serving rice.

Grandma Xia and Xia Yiyi both have special bowls and chopsticks for eating, the kind that come in sets. Grandma Xia's are blue and white porcelain style, while Xia Yiyi's are beautiful gilt-rimmed patterned bowls.

Chu Shan used to eat here using a white porcelain bowl without any patterns. It was just an ordinary white porcelain bowl used to entertain guests.

And today, Xia Yiyi gave him a gray-blue porcelain bowl with a leaf pattern.

Chu Shan had never seen this porcelain bowl in the Xia family.

And gray-blue is exactly his favorite color.

"What is this?" Chu Shan asked doubtfully.

"I bought it especially for you! Does it look good?" Xia Yiyi asked showing off while holding up the porcelain bowl.

"Bought it specially for me?" Chu Shan didn't know what he was so happy about. It was just a porcelain bowl.

But the joy that rose from the bottom of his heart had already crept up to the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.

"Of course! I chose and searched for a long time before I found a porcelain bowl of this color!" Xia Yiyi placed the porcelain bowl in Chu Shan's place.

"We all have our own special bowls and chopsticks. This is clean and meaningful."

Chu Shan pulled out a dining chair and sat down, "What's the point?"

"The meaning of family! My family members should all have special bowls and chopsticks!" Xia Yiyi also sat down and took the lead in picking up a piece of pork ribs for Chu Shan.

After not seeing him for a few days, Chu Shan has lost a lot of weight, which makes people feel sad.

family……

Chu Shan felt a sudden pain in his nose.

His family no longer wanted him, but an outsider treated him as a family member.

Chu Shan suppressed the bitterness in his eyes, lowered his head to eat, and said nonchalantly, "I'm not a homeless stray dog! As for my home, I haven't wanted to go back for a long time! Now is the perfect time, I will never go back again in my life!"

"Don't think that I came to you because I'm homeless! I... I still have brothers! Anyone can take me in!"

Then, Chu Shan added, "I won't eat and drink for free here! I will pay for the room and meals."

Grandma Xia looked at Chu Shan with concern and picked up another piece of pork ribs for him. "Eat more! Don't think too much! Just stay here. Can I still ask you for room and meal expenses?"

Xia Yiyi stuffed a leaf into her mouth, chewed it carefully, swallowed it, and said.

"How can you still be so naive? When nothing is wrong, they are friends. When something goes wrong, they are strangers. When my grandmother and I were in trouble, all our relatives avoided us, not to mention our drinking buddies who only cared about eating, drinking and having fun!"

"You want them to control you, how is that possible?"

Chu Shan frowned slightly.

At first he didn't believe that people could be so realistic.

But the silent and unanswered messages on his phone made him realize that what Xia Yiyi said might be true.

Chu Shan stopped talking, lowered his head and ate his meal in silence.

After dinner, he lay down on his sofa again, still looking lazy and nonchalant as before.

But Grandma Xia could feel that Chu Shan was in a bad mood.

Grandma Xia nodded to Xia Yiyi and asked her to go and accompany Chu Shan.

Xia Yiyi shrugged, but still squeezed a glass of juice and brought it to the coffee table.

"What's wrong? Are you in a bad mood?" Xia Yiyi asked.

Chu Shan turned over, facing away from Xia Yiyi, and said disdainfully, "What's there to be unhappy about! I'm fine now, I'm just tired and sleepy, and I want to sleep for a while!"

"They are your parents. They won't be so cruel as to abandon you. They are just angry. When they calm down, they will recognize you!" Xia Yiyi sat on the chair next to the sofa.

Chu Shan turned over and sat up, staring at Xia Yiyi with anger in his eyes, "So you took me in!"

"What?" Xia Yiyi didn't understand.

"You took me in because my parents still want me and I am still valuable!" Chu Shan was like a hedgehog at this moment, with all his sharp thorns erected, which would hurt people if touched.
