A few days before the new year, Jordan accompanied his father to visit his relatives and friends.
First, he went back to his hometown, then to his mother's side.
This year, Ye Linxuan had upgraded the gifts he gave during the New Year. He gave them all good cigarettes and wine.
When his relatives asked curiously, he casually said that he had opened a supermarket and made some money.
His relatives also thought that he was talking about a small supermarket, so they didn't probe further. Ye Linxuan also didn't deliberately show off.
When he left his grandmother's house, Ye Linxuan secretly left 20,000 yuan to his grandparents so that they could eat and drink well.
It wasn't that he didn't want to give more, but he was afraid that if he gave too much, it would cause trouble. After all, there were many relatives who were jealous of a few thousand yuan these days.
Twenty thousand yuan was enough for the two elders to live comfortably for a year.
After visiting a few relatives, the father and son returned to their home in West Bridge Town and began to enjoy the new year.
On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, after nearly half a month of continuous rain and snow, it finally cleared up. The almanac showed that today was a good day for marriage.
At eight o'clock in the morning, Ye Linxuan was dressed up in high spirits. Then, he borrowed Xia Yingru's car to pick up Cai Yuyan and went to Qingshui City's Civil Affairs Bureau to get their marriage certificate.
On this day, Cai Yuyan officially moved into the Ye family.
At night, Cai Yuyan displayed her culinary skills to her heart's content and prepared a large table of sumptuous dishes. She invited Xia Yingru's family over for a meal as a simple wedding celebration.
……………………
Spring passed and autumn came. Time flew.
Two years passed quickly.
It was September 1st, 2007. Today was the first day of school, and it was also Xia Muxi's first day as a junior high student.
Last year, Ye Chen and Zhang Rui had already graduated from elementary school and entered West Bridge High School.
With Jordan's grades, he could have gone to the best middle school in the city, but he did not choose to go to Qingshui City.
Firstly, he had studied at West Bridge High School in his previous life. Secondly, he would definitely have to stay in the dormitory if he went to school in the city. He would only be able to see Xia Muxi when he returned home during the weekend holidays. He would not be able to bear it.
West Bridge Middle School was located on South Street, some distance away from home. It took more than half an hour to walk there.
Therefore, Ye Chen went to Qingshui City to buy an imported high-end mountain bike called Nikola. It was made entirely of handmade aluminum alloy and had a five-speed transmission. It had high performance and a domineering appearance.
This bike cost him more than 8,000 yuan. In this era, it could be said to be a top-notch bicycle.
Ye Chen had even asked the shop owner to add a backseat, which immediately lowered the grade of the bike. Those who were not proficient in bicycle brands would only think that it was a bike that cost a few hundred yuan. However, he did not care about this at all.
After breakfast, Ye Chen rode his bicycle and drove Xia Muxi to school.
In April this year, Xia Muxi had already held her tenth birthday party.
Girls developed earlier than boys. Two years had passed and Xia Muxi's height had reached Ye Chen's ears. She had grown even more slender and graceful.
Due to her long-term dance studies, she had a unique temperament that could not be described with words.
"Brother Fei, was junior high fun?"
Xia Muxi sat on the backseat of the bicycle and hugged Ye Chen's waist. Her beautiful face was filled with joy.
Her shoulder-length black hair was tied into a ponytail. She wore a sky-blue dress and white shoes. Under the morning sun, she looked so pure and moving.
"It's definitely more fun than primary school. There are also some new snack bars and milk tea shops outside the school. You should like them.”
Ye Chen answered with a smile.
"Wow, that's great."
Xia Muxi cheered happily. She said with some anticipation and some nervousness,"I wonder what kind of classmates I can meet and whether I can make new friends.”
Her little sister, Xiong Jia, was just as Ye Chen remembered. After graduating from primary school, she moved to Shanghai with her parents.
When they parted ways more than a month ago, the two of them hugged each other and cried until their eyes were swollen. They refused to let go.
Xiong Jia was even more furious at his parents. She said that she was not leaving and wanted to stay behind to attend middle school with Xia Muxi. Xiong Wentao and his wife were helpless.
In the end, it was Ye Chen who stepped in. He said that he would bring Xia Muxi to Shanghai to play with her when he was free. After comforting her, the two girls reluctantly said goodbye.
"Of course you can. You're so beautiful. Who wouldn't want to be friends with you?”
Ye Chen praised with a smile.
"Hehe…that's true, I think so too.”
Xia Muxi smiled and nodded.
"If a boy is bothering you, ignore him. If you can't do it, come to me.”
Ye Chen suddenly said.
Xia Muxi went to school too early and was only eleven years old.
However, most of the students were already twelve or thirteen years old. They were at the age of first awakening of love, so they were more or less curious about the relationship between men and women.
He didn't want any little brat to pester his wife.
"I know. I don't care about those boys. They're so childish.”
Xia Muxi agreed obediently.
Girls matured earlier than boys. In the past two years, she had also understood what the betrothal between her and Ye Chen meant. Her feelings for Ye Chen had gradually changed.
Other than Ye Chen, all the boys of the same age, including Zhang Xiaopang, she felt that they were childish and stupid. They could not be compared to her brother at all.
