Tan Yandong happened to go to the labor market to find a nanny and imdiately noticed Yang Wenyu curled up in the corner. After listening to her recount her experiences, he brought her back.
At first, Chen Fang didn't like her.
Because she was rustic and didn't understand anything about the city.
But as ti went on.
Chen Fang's affection for her grew daily.
Yang Wenyu was very hardworking and eager to learn, asking Chen Fang about things she didn't understand. In just a few days, she mastered the use of household appliances.
She also cooked delicious als.
Every ti Chen Fang ca ho from school, he could eat an extra bowl.
More importantly, Yang Wenyu cared for him attentively. The first thing she did after getting paid was to buy Chen Fang a big pile of snacks, in a sense treating him like a real younger brother.
Because of this.
When Tan Yandong returned from his studies at the party school, he kept Yang Wenyu on.
She ended up staying at Tan Yandong's house for three years.
It wasn't until Chen Fang went away to college that she reluctantly left the Tan Family.
It's been more than ten years since they parted.
Chen Fang never expected to reunite under such circumstances.
In his youthful mories.
Besides those tender monts.
Chen Fang also kept so little secrets nobody knew about in his heart.
When he reached adolescence.
Chen Fang, like his peers, began to feel restless.
Gradually, he beca curious about won's bodies.
Especially on sumr nights, Yang Wenyu would take a tily shower in the bathroom after dinner.
Chen Fang's bedroom was right next to the bathroom, and the sound of water always made his heart itch.
So, every ti Yang Wenyu went in.
Chen Fang would secretly open the door a crack to peek at Yang Wenyu's graceful body.
It must be said.
Yang Wenyu was a famous beauty in the area.
She didn't have a slender figure; due to long years of farm work, her body was quite plump, especially her notably well-endowed chest.
In today's terms.
She was at the "curvy perfection" level.
Even now.
Through Yang Wenyu's clothes, Chen Fang could still recall the sight of her smooth skin covered in water droplets.
Though they lost contact later.
He could still vaguely learn about Yang Wenyu's current situation from Tan Yandong.
After making money and going back, her crippled husband treated her much better and no longer dared to hit or scold her randomly.
But there was still a big issue that couldn't be resolved.
Despite being married for years.
Yang Wenyu remained childless.
This caused her in-laws to beco increasingly dissatisfied with her.
She not only had to endure covert sarcasm but also shouldered a heavy burden of housework.
"Happiness" was out of the question; just getting by was already considered good enough.
Over the years.
The Yang Family encountered significant upheavals.
After Yang Gongfa and his wife passed away in succession, the second son Yang Youcai drifted outside aimlessly, not returning ho for many years with no news; the third son Yang Youqian fared worse, being sentenced to eleven years for theft a few years ago.
A well-off family essentially fell apart.
"Wenyu Jie, why have you co back?"
Chen Fang knew that both he and Yang Wenyu had grown up and could no longer be as close as they used to be, so he promptly changed the subject to ease her embarrassnt.
Yang Wenyu blushed and said, "Today is Uncle Tan's morial day; I ca to pay my respects at his grave. I couldn't help but want to co here and have a look. I didn't expect the key would still be in the old place, so I gathered my courage to co in. Seeing how dirty it was inside, I just had to..."
At this point, Yang Wenyu's eyes were wet.
It was clear she still had strong feelings for this place.
"Wenyu Jie, it's okay; it's all in the past. I didn't expect we would et here, it's really fate. I think we should celebrate properly. Shall I take you downstairs for a al?"
Chen Fang once again changed the subject.
Upon hearing this, Yang Wenyu wiped her eyes.
She said, "Eating out is a waste of money. How about this: let cook for you. I'm not sure if your tastes have changed over the years, but I rember what you used to love to eat."
To tell the truth, he did miss the taste of Yang Wenyu's cooking.
Chen Fang replied cheerfully, "Then I'll trouble Wenyu Jie."
Yang Wenyu waved her hand and said, "You're talking nonsense. Cooking for you, your sister is more than happy to do it. Sit for a while; I'll go downstairs to buy groceries now."
With that, she wiped her hands and hurried downstairs.
In just over an hour.
A table full of delicious dishes was laid out.
Although many utensils were missing, Chen Fang still ate with great relish.
Bite by bite, as he ate his favorite dishes, the scenes of their daily life together in the past resurfaced in his mind.
Even though they were very close back then.
The atmosphere after so many years was sowhat restrained.
They sat facing each other, neither knowing what to say.
After a pause.
Chen Fang broke the silence.
He asked, "Wenyu Jie, it's been a long ti. How have you been lately?"
Yang Wenyu gave a bitter smile and said, "How could it be, just getting by. As long as I'm not freezing or starving, it's fine. How about you? I heard you've beco a high-ranking official?"
"No, no, not a big official, just making a living."
Chen Fang said modestly.
They chatted intermittently.
At first, both were a bit reserved.
But gradually.
As they reminisced about the past.
Those familiar feelings returned.
The silly antics, absurdities, and rebelliousness of their youth beca laughable stories, and before long, the two of them were laughing heartily.
After lunch.
Yang Wenyu suggested going out for a walk.
Chen Fang agreed.
And so.
The duo, once master and servant and playmates in their youth, wandered aimlessly.
Every place they saw, in the community, streets, and nearby parks, evoked mories for both.
As they walked.
They reached the stream in the park.
Each hugging their knees, they sat by the stream.
Listening to the burbling flow.
For so reason.
Yang Wenyu felt a pang of sadness.
A tear slowly fell from the corner of her eye, and faint sobs could be heard.
"Wenyu Jie, what's wrong?"
Chen Fang leaned over and asked with concern.
In the sunlight.
Yang Wenyu's serene face was as moving as ever. She smiled and shook her head, saying, "Nothing, I'm just really happy. I didn't expect that after all these years, I could still see you. I always thought once you beca a high-ranking official, you'd forget about your Wenyu Jie."
"How could I? I'll never forget Wenyu Jie in this lifeti."
Chen Fang said.
Hearing this.
Yang Wenyu, who was still teary-eyed, chuckled softly.
She murmured, "Our Ah Fang has really grown up, not only beco handso but also knows how to sweet-talk won. I bet you've had great luck with the ladies these years."
