520 Picking up garbage and marrying into a wealthy family

It turns out.

The extremes must be reversed.

This world follows the law of conservation of energy.

If you gain joy in one place, you will inevitably get unwanted emotions in another place.

As soon as Xiang Huanian stepped into the house, he was greeted by Chen Aifang's incessant chanting.

"Oh, didn't I tell you to take the earliest subway back? What time is it now... Oh my God, what are you wearing? It's New Year's Day, why are you still wearing old clothes? You made money, but it's okay if you don't give me gifts, but why don't you buy yourself some decent clothes? You dress like this, and people will think I did something to you. Here, take these new clothes I bought you, go change into them, and then we'll set off..."

I was drowsy from the warm subway, but the moment I walked out of the subway entrance, I was blown into a fool by the biting cold wind outside, and my whole body was shivering. I had just walked a few steps back home and wanted to take a break to warm up. Xiang Huanian said: "...Oh."

Xiang Huanian held the new clothes, bent down, changed his shoes, and didn't even drink a sip of hot water or take off his backpack. Just like that, he walked back to his room under Chen Aifang's anxious gaze.

Home.

If a room is not occupied for a long time.

Then, there is a great possibility that it will become a warehouse for parents.

Of course, whether it becomes a warehouse will depend on how much parents love their children.

However, Xiang Huanian was not that lucky child.

The moment Xiang Huanian opened the door, he almost thought he had traveled to an express delivery station.

Boxes of cardboard and other miscellaneous items were piled on the floor and desk of her room, leaving only a narrow path for people to walk through the entire room.

The only thing to be thankful for was that Xiang Huanian's bed was relatively clean, without any clutter or dust flying all over the room when he moved.

But in fact, all these happened last night when Chen Dejie, despite Chen Aifang's obstruction, dusted Xiang Huanian's room and tidied it up until Xiang Huanian looked at it in a not-so-bad state, with Chen Aifang saying in 360-degree surround sound, "She will clean it up herself when she comes back. No need to trouble you. Your hands are for playing the violin, they are so precious, not for doing these things..."

Xiang Huanian curled the corners of her mouth and did not make any hysterical accusations to Chen Aifang who was paying attention to her reaction behind her. She just calmly closed the door, found a clean and bright place, took off her backpack, took off her down jacket that had been kept warm, and put on the new clothes that Chen Aifang bought for her.

Xiang Huanian couldn't explain why.

She also wondered why she didn't refuse Chen Aifang's request.

Maybe, because she is my mother...

After all, she is the mother who raised me...

Women, in fact, suffer more injustice and hardship in this world.

In the family, it is also generally accepted that they are the ones who make greater contributions.

Therefore, Xiang Huanian, as Chen Aifang's daughter, could never bear to feel excessive resentment towards Chen Aifang, who had been the financial support of the entire family since she was a child.

To Xiang Huanian, Chen Aifang is indeed not a good mother, but if you put yourself in the perspective of an observer, Xiang Huanian feels that Chen Aifang is a very powerful person.

Apart from anything else, Chen Aifang, without any financial support from her family, had already earned two houses and a car through her sales work in her middle age, all registered in her own name. She also sent Chen Dejie abroad to study music, which was a very expensive endeavor, and she also raised Xiang Huanian and sent him to college...

All of these were achieved through Chen Aifang's hard work. As for Xiang Aiguo... he had not made any progress in all these years and only received a pitiful salary that was barely enough to make ends meet and only increased once every few years. Naturally, it was impossible for him to provide any help.

So, from time to time, very occasionally, Xiang Huanian would feel a little admiration for Chen Aifang.

however.

After Xiang Huanian put on the new clothes, he began to waver and doubt the already precarious family relationship.

The appearance of the clothes looks good. It is a style suitable for young people. Once you put it on, you will look fashionable and your mental outlook will be different.

But when I put it on, I don’t know why, it felt so cold.

As soon as you raise your hand, the cold air will come in from under the hem of your clothes and take away the body temperature that you have worked so hard to accumulate.

It seems like there are leaks everywhere.

Xiang Huanian touched the clothes on his body, which looked good but were useless, and fell silent.

The original family seems to be like this.

On the surface, there doesn't seem to be any problem.

But the interior is just like this piece of clothing. After gathering warmth, it uses the sudden and severe cold to remind itself and pull itself out of the woven dreamy warmth.

I will go back to the village later. Although the village is only one or two hours' drive from the city, the temperature is very different.

Because it is in the mountains, surrounded by mountains and lush green plants, it will be less affected by the greenhouse effect than in the city.

Generally speaking, the temperature in the mountains is lower.

For the sake of his own health, Xiang Huanian dug out a few hot packs from the corners and put them in his pocket. He also wore an old down jacket that he had made a few years ago, which was of very good quality and still kept him warm.

The new clothes that Chen Aifang bought for Xiang Huanian were oversized down jackets that are quite popular among young people nowadays.

Xiang Huanian, by practicing Ba Duan Jin twice a day, has lost a little weight and his muscles have become firmer. When he wears layered clothes, he only looks a little bloated, and the rest is not noticeable.

"Have you changed yet? We are ready to go back!"

When Chen Aifang called out, Xiang Huanian was sorting out his things, checking which ones he needed to take with him and which ones he could leave at home and not take back to the village... Forget it, he might as well take everything with him.

Xiang Huanian looked at the not-so-many things in his backpack, and at Chen Aifang's urging, he closed it, leaving it unopened.

No one took anything out of the backpack, nor did they put anything into the backpack.

Xiang Huanian simply hid the charger and power bank, which he considered valuable, the tablet for typing, and the sanitary napkins and alcohol wipes he brought with him just in case, at the bottom of his backpack. Then, he covered them with a scarf and gloves that he could wear when it was cold, zipped up his backpack, put it on again, and walked outside.

"coming."

"You're so slow, you've made the whole family wait for you... Let's get ready to go. If you need to go to the bathroom, go now, so you don't have to look for a bathroom or a place to park. It's Chinese New Year, and parking is really expensive..."
