Chapter 11

Yan Xi nodded seriously: “Sister Fan must not have managed the household well, so she can’t get paid, and she herself doesn’t have the ability to make money, so she lets Shuai Shuai wear ripped pants.”

“What did you say?” Fan Fuying’s face suddenly changed.

Yan Xi tried to lie on the ground, playing marbles with her butt sticking out, and exclaimed exaggeratedly: “Oh my God, there’s such a big hole on the back of his butt and you didn’t even notice it? How can you be a mother!”

All the sisters-in-law looked at Shuai Shuai.

As expected, everyone discovered that there was a hole worn out on the back of Shuai Shuai’s pants.

“Handsome! Come here!” Fan Fuying shouted angrily.

Shuai Shuai shuddered all over and came over in confusion: “Mom, what…”

Before Shuai Shuai could finish his words, Fan Fuying pulled his arm and slapped him on the butt: “I just bought you new pants yesterday, how did you tear them?!”

Although Fan Fuying was annoyed, he still restrained his strength when slapping her.

However, Shuai Shuai was rarely hit by her. Even though she hit him so lightly now, Shuai Shuai still howled “Woo-wa-woo-wa”.

“I don’t know…it wasn’t me who broke it…” Shuai Shuai said while howling.

“Didn’t you break it, or did it break on its own?!” Fan Fuying was extremely angry.

If it was an old piece of clothing that had been worn for a long time, she wouldn’t have been so angry.

But those were the new pants she bought yesterday, how could she not be angry!

“Sister Fan, stop calling Shuai Shuai a bad name. It’s just a pair of pants. People who don’t know would think that you didn’t take care of the house well, so Captain Sun didn’t even give you money for a pair of pants.” Yan Xi said strangely.

Fan Fuying was already angry, and now he became even angrier after hearing Yan Xi’s words.

She was about to get angry at Yan Xi when Yan Xi suddenly took out two coats from the small backpack she was carrying, shook them deliberately in Fan Fuying’s direction, and shouted to Fu Caihe and Nuannuan who were playing in the mud in their yard: “Xiaohe – Nuannuan – come and try on the new clothes that your aunt bought for you!”

The two children who were playing in the mud were bored and were stunned. They looked at each other in disbelief and trotted over.

When they saw that Yan Xi was holding two children’s coats, they were even more incredulous and their eyes widened.

The stepmother actually bought them new clothes? !

The sisters-in-law present were even more shocked.

When did Yan Xi change her personality and treat the two children so well? !

Taking a closer look at the coat in Yan Xi’s hand, the sisters-in-law were even more shocked.

Feng Lingling said to Guo Xia, “Sister Guo, is that the pink coat Sister Yan has in her hand the one you wanted to buy for Xidi yesterday but didn’t buy because it was too expensive?”

Guo Xia saw it at first sight, but she didn’t want to admit it at all.

Why did Yan Xi buy the clothes that she was reluctant to buy for Xidi for Nuannuan? !

Seeing that Guo Xia ignored her, Feng Lingling turned to Fan Fuying and said, “Sister Fan, is that the blue coat Sister Yan had in her hand the one you wanted to buy for Shuai Shuai yesterday but decided it was too expensive and didn’t buy it?”

Fan Fuying glared at Feng Lingling irritably.

You are the only one who has a mouth! You are the best at speaking!

Feng Lingling shut her mouth tactfully.

Yan Xi had already personally put two coats on the two children – mainly because their hands were covered in mud from playing, so she was the only one who could put them on.

Yan Xi felt that the saying “clothes make the man” was very true.

Look, the two children look much more energetic after putting on new coats.

“This coat comes with matching pants. In addition to these two coats, I also bought you other coats so you can change into different ones. You don’t need the one you’re wearing now.” Yan Xi said as she showed the two children the clothes she bought.

By the way, let the sisters-in-law present here take a look too.

“I also bought two sets of pajamas for you. After taking a shower at night, change into pajamas before going to bed. Don’t go directly to bed in dirty clothes.” Yan Xi said as she showed the pajamas she bought.

The two children were stunned when they heard this, and the sisters-in-law present were even more surprised.

Who would be so particular as to wear separate pajamas when sleeping? Everyone sleeps in their underwear!

Moreover, the material of this pajamas looked better than that of the coat. They had never seen it on the street stalls, so they were probably only available in department stores.

And the things in department stores mean – expensive.

What on earth is wrong with Yan Xi? Why is she suddenly so nice to the two children?

After Yan Xizhan finished showing off, he took Fu Caihe and Nuannuan home.

Nuannuan was very happy to have new clothes to wear. She jumped and followed Yan Xi, while Fu Caihe’s gloomy face showed a thoughtful look.

Yan Xi entered the house, put down the small backpack, sat on a chair, and took a few deep breaths.

She is so exhausted today. She works so hard, she should be able to lose a pound or two.

She pinched the fat on her belly through her clothes.

I don’t know when she will be able to lose all this fat and return to her weight of 100 kilograms, which is similar to her previous life.

“What did you eat in the morning and at noon?” Yan Xi asked the two children who had just returned from washing their hands.

The grandmother said in a warm voice: “Dumplings. My brother cooked dumplings.”

Yan Xi nodded: “Not bad.”

She also told Fu Caihe: “From now on, I will cook an egg for you and your sister every morning.”

The two children are too thin and look malnourished. They need more nutrition.

Fu Caihe said “hmm” expressionlessly.

Yan Xi took out the enamel cup, new towel and new toothbrush she had bought from the small backpack.

“From now on, use your own cup to drink water. The one with ‘brother’ written on it is Xiaohe’s, and the one with ‘sister’ written on it is Nuannuan’s.” Yan Xi said.

Nuannuan’s eyes lit up and she held her enamel cup in her hands, unable to let it go.

Wow, she has her own cup now.

“Replace the towel you are using now with this new one. You must brush your teeth before going to bed every night and after getting up in the morning.” Yan Xi finished her instructions and suddenly remembered to ask, “Do you know how to brush your teeth?”

Nuannuan held the enamel cup and shook her head.

“I’ll teach you tonight.”

Nuannuan nodded happily.

Fu Caihe frowned slightly and stared at Yan Xi, as if he wanted to see through what she was thinking.

He didn’t say anything, and Yan Xi didn’t go out of her way to talk to him or please him. She knew what he was thinking, but she didn’t explain.

Actions speak louder than words.

Even if Fu Caihe always doubted her, she didn’t care.

Anyway, when Fu Wen comes back, she will divorce him. During this period, she was as kind to them as a normal person would be to a child.

In other words, she was kind to them because she saw in them the self in her previous life who had lived under other people’s roofs and experienced the fickleness of human nature. She was just compensating herself for her past life in this way.
