Only After I Was Reborn Did I Realize That I Had Childhood Sweethearts
Chapter 182: The Little Water Balancing MasterMei Fang’s journey back home was smooth. When they stopped at a service station, Mei Lijun went to the restroom, and Mei Ya approached Mei Fang to talk.
“Brother, do you like Sister Yuan Yuan more, or Sister Youxi more?”
“Why are you asking this?” Mei Fang raised an eyebrow.
“Just curious…” Mei Ya whispered, “Because I see that you have good relationships with both of them.”
“Don’t ask me who I like more. You probably like Yuan Yuan more, since you want to be the Xia family’s daughter.
“Don’t assume that just because I’m closer to Sister Yuan Yuan means I like her more. In fact, I love both my big sisters equally. If I had to say…um, I don’t like it when Sister Youxi nags me to do my homework.”
“Equally? I don’t believe it. Then, what do you like about your sister Youxi?”
Mei Ya raised her head and pondered, “Sister Youxi cooks delicious food for me and plays games with me. She’s much better at gaming than Sister Yuan Yuan, and we can easily clear any game together… And Sister Youxi is cool and elegant. I also want to become a girl with a personality like her in the future.”
“So, you’re a little water balancing master, huh?”
Mei Ya happily put her hands on her waist. “Of course! Oh, brother, I asked my classmates before, and they said excellent boys can have two wives at the same time as long as they don’t get married and register. That way, it’s not considered breaking the law, and they won’t be thrown into jail.”“You little brat… you think about so many random things.”
Mei Fang pinched Mei Ya’s cheeks. “The three of us have a very pure childhood sweetheart relationship right now. Don’t think too much.”
Mei Ya disregarded her brother’s words and sighed: “Haa… it’s such a pity that I can only have one sister-in-law! Brother, you have to think carefully and not leave any regrets for yourself.”
“Just earlier when everyone was around, weren’t you still a little girl clinging to Uncle Xia? Now you’re talking like a little adult.”
Mei Ya hardly concealed anything in front of Mei Fang. “That’s because whenever I make Uncle Xia happy, he gives me a big red envelope. Of course, I have to seize the opportunity!”
“You stinky little girl… you’re so young, but you already know so many things.”
“Hehe… it’s all thanks to your good teaching, brother! By the way, now that you’re in high school, you’re like a young adult. Will you give me a red envelope this year?”
“We’re in the same generation, why would I give you a red envelope?”
“But Sister Yue Yue started giving me red envelopes last year! She’s our cousin, so we’re the same generation, right?”
“Your sister Yue Yue has started working. She gave you a red envelope because she’s a generous person with extra money. As for me, your brother is still a poor student. Where would I get the money…”
Mei Ya took advantage of Mei Fang’s inattention and swiftly took his phone from his pocket and held it in her hand.
“Brother, brother, your phone is so pretty! Is it the same brand as the one Mom gave you before? It seems different, though.”
“As far as I know, this seems to be that famous Apple kidney phone… Brother, you only get 1,200 as your monthly allowance. This phone must have been given to you by Sister Yuan Yuan. She mentioned having tens of thousands of yuan in her bank account.”
“Ah, great…” Mei Fang raised his thumb to Mei Ya and said, “Keep the phone a secret, and I’ll give you a 10-yuan red envelope for the Lunar New Year.”
“200, not a cent less.”
Mei Fang frowned deeply, putting on a very sad expression, “Where would your big brother get money from? And it’s not from your sister Yuan Yuan. Studying is so hard for me, can’t you show some consideration for your brother?”
“It’s your New Year’s money, brother. Don’t pretend to be poor!” Mei Ya reminded her brother, “Don’t forget, you can use your New Year’s money as you wish now, unlike me, I have to let Mom keep it.”
“Fine… I’ll do as you say.”
“Big Brother Ah Fang, you’re so generous!” Mei Ya said, transforming into an adorable little cotton-padded jacket, hugging Mei Fang tightly, and planting a kiss on his cheek.
Mei Fang wiped his sister’s saliva off his face with a disgusted expression and then asked, “By the way, why does a little kid like you need so much money? You can’t even spend it.”
“I want to buy a model aircraft to collect! But Mom and Dad won’t let me buy it, saying something about the trap of consumerism. They just don’t understand the value of model aircraft.”
Mei Ya said with an air of frustration, “Those flying machines are the technological marvels of our human exploration of the sky and the mysteries of the universe. I want to fully comprehend the structure of these aircraft so that one day, I can pilot a spaceship and lead humanity further.”
“So you actually like model aircraft…” Mei Fang didn’t expect his little sister’s passion for astronomy to still persist. He was quite surprised:
“Then if you buy it, how will you explain it to Mom and Dad?”
“I’ll say a friend lent them to me to play with, or maybe——”
Mei Ya had a clever idea. “My dear Brother Ah Fang saved up money and gave it to me!”
“You usually call me ‘Brother,’ but when you need me to take the blame or ask for money, you call me ‘Dear Brother Ah Fang’ instead?”
“Brother, you can have me call you whatever you want, as long as you’re willing to give me a red envelope. I’ll call you however you like!”
Mei Ya smiled mischievously at him, and Mei Fang helplessly shook his head, pinching Mei Ya’s cheek and said, “Then I won’t give you money, just tell me what kind of model aircraft you want, and I’ll buy it for you directly.”
“Wow, brother, are you so rich?”
“It’s not that… I’ve just saved some money. Don’t ask too much.”
“Are you sure you’re not being supported by Sister Yuan Yuan?”
“You’re still asking me?”
Mei Ya quickly covered her mouth and shook her head. She waited until Mei Fang calmed down before speaking silently, “Brother, how much money do you have?”
“Just tell me which model aircraft you want to buy. But don’t be too greedy, my love for you has its limits.”
“But my affection for my brother is limitless!”
Mei Ya patted her chest and assured, “I’m definitely better in this aspect than Sister Youxi and Sister Yuan Yuan. Our sibling bond runs deep, those two can’t compare to me!”
“You only show loyalty at times like this.”
Mei Fang shook his head helplessly.
From a very young age, his little sister was incredibly quirky and mischievous but also possessed an intellect far beyond her peers. Even the reborn Mei Fang, sometimes found her difficult to handle.
At the same time, she had a great dream of becoming a taikonaut.
She was extraordinary as a child, and she would definitely be an extraordinary troublemaker when she grew up.
But… that’s not a bad thing.
After all, she is the little sister of Mei Fang, the chosen one, and that is how it should be.
Mei Fang looked forward to his little sister growing up. He would provide enough support for Mei Ya’s growth, to see how far she could go.
The group returned to their new home in Baizhou City, a three-story house with a large courtyard.
This courtyard area was almost twice the size of the house itself, complete with a pond, a pavilion, and a small nursery garden planted with cherry tomatoes, green leafy vegetables, and other seasonal vegetables—all set up by Mei Lijun and Xiang Xiaoxia themselves, showing the harmony in their married life.
After bringing Mei Fang back, Mei Lijun kept showing off the results of his work, and Mei Fang also took a tour around the courtyard.
Even though Dad is balding, he has also improved.
His lifestyle has clearly improved a lot compared to before.
If there’s an opportunity, I should bring Yuan Yuan and Youxi here for a visit.
After all, Mei Fang would be living in a big mansion in the future, so maybe he could ask his dad to help him take care of it.
While Mei Fang was enjoying the scenery in the courtyard, someone suddenly covered his eyes from behind.
It was a pair of slender and beautiful hands, slightly cold.
“Xiaofangzi, guess who I am?”
