The Comeback of the Cannon-Fodder Supporting Actress

After leaving home, Anning went to shop for some things.

She had to go back to make dinner for the children. There weren’t enough vegetables at home, and there wasn’t much meat either. Xiao Cong said he wanted to eat braised pork ribs, so Anning thought of going to the supermarket to buy some ribs.

Besides, Xiao Yuan said in the morning that Xiao Yishan would come over in the evening for tutoring, so Anning thought of buying some fruit or something, you can’t have the kids come over and have nothing to eat, right?

Another thing is buying fresh flowers.

Anyway, when Anning went back, her electric bike was packed full of things.

She rode the bike downstairs, and just as Xiao Yuan came over, seeing she bought so many things, he quickly came over to help carry them upstairs.

The two of them carried the things and chatted while walking.

Xiao Yuan smiled and said to Anning: ”You bear with it for a few more days. In a few days, I’ll make a big move, and then we’ll buy a big apartment in the city and move there. I’ll think of a way to transfer the kids there.”

”Alright.”

Anning smiled and went to unlock the door.

After they got inside, Xiao Yuan found a vase to arrange the flowers.

”The quality of this vase is too poor.”

Xiao Yuan criticized while arranging the flowers: ”What’s your aesthetic sense, buying such flashy vases? Is this the urban-rural integration style?”

After picking and choosing, Xiao Yuan picked out a few plain-colored vases, then started selecting the flowers.

Anning ignored him and continued preparing vegetables to make dinner.

”I’ll eat here tonight.”

Xiao Yuan fiddling with the flowers, didn’t even lift his head as he said.

”Alright.”

Anning turned and went into the kitchen.

Xiao Yuan looked up and smiled: ”I’ll go cook after I’m done arranging the flowers.”

Anning put rice and water in the rice cooker and began handling the ribs and fish.

Xiao Yuan was quick, finished arranging the flowers, washed his hands, and went to the kitchen to help.

Anning only steamed the rice, washed the ribs and fish clean, and almost all the remaining work was done by Xiao Yuan.

Xiao Yuan was busy cooking, and Anning just accompanied him.

”Things went smoothly today, right?”

Anning chatted with Xiao Yuan in a casual manner.

”Quite smoothly.”

Xiao Yuan smiled and told Anning about the trip to Liu San’s house to check Feng Shui.

Early in the morning, Liu San drove over to pick up Xiao Yuan.

Since Liu San’s house was demolished, he had money to buy a car, not very expensive, around three to four hundred thousand, but Liu San felt it was quite good and kept driving it.

Liu San and his wife were actually quite thrifty, except for being generous with Xiao Yuan; in daily life, they were quite stingy.

Xiao Yuan got in the car, and Liu San drove him back home.

The house Liu San lives in now was allocated after the demolition, quite big, four bedrooms, two living rooms, one hundred fifty to sixty square meters.

Xiao Yuan entered Liu San’s house and saw Liu San’s wife and another man inside.

Seeing Xiao Yuan, Liu San’s wife quickly stood up to greet him: ”The master is here, please sit inside. I’ve prepared good tea, was just saying I need to brew it, please sit, I’ll make the tea.”

Liu San instructed: ”Brew the best tea.”

Liu San’s wife smiled: ”I know, the master is here, of course, we use the best tea to treat him.”

Xiao Yuan didn’t sit, he looked around the living room first, then went to check each bedroom too.

When he got to the master bedroom, he pointed to the building opposite the window: ”There are recently moved-in people opposite your house, right?”

Liu San hmmed: ”Master, how did you know?”

The other man came over too, tried hard to look opposite but couldn’t tell if the people across had just moved in.

Xiao Yuan laughed: ”Your house just recently had some small troubles, none before, I remember coming to check the Feng Shui of your house before, found nothing wrong, but now... see if the opposite window isn’t always blinking?”

Liu San looked carefully and it was.

”Master, is there something to say about this?”

Xiao Yuan frowned: ”Opposite has hung an Eight Trigrams Mirror on the window, and it’s very bright, not good for your house.”

”What should we do about it?”

Liu San got anxious: ”Damn it, I’ll go find him, break that Eight Trigrams Mirror.”

Xiao Yuan waved his hand: ”Don’t rush.”

Liu San started to wipe sweat: ”How can I not rush, they’re doing magic on me, if I don’t retaliate a bit, I’d be too spineless.”

Xiao Yuan looked back at Liu San: ”Do you know who lives opposite?”

Liu San thought for a long time: ”I don’t know.”

Just then Liu San’s wife came, she did know: ”It’s a neighbor from our old house, demolished around the same time, they also got two apartments in this community.”

Liu San understood: ”You’re talking about Wang Ming’s house.”
