"How did the three of you come together?"
"Brother Zi’an was waiting for us at the school on purpose," Yang Qingtong said as she put down her schoolbag.
"Sister, look, Brother Zi’an also brought back puppies," said Yang Xiayun.
"Puppies?" Yang Chuxia looked over, so the big box he was carrying contained puppies? She quickly went forward to check, and indeed, there were a few new-born puppies.
"Aww, where did these come from? They must be from the same litter."
Ye Zi’an casually smiled. "They were born to the guard dog at the restaurant. There are six in total. Shopkeeper Li originally wanted to throw them away, but I thought it was a pity, so I took them. I thought since we live far away from the village, we could raise them to be watchdogs."
"You think of everything, I didn’t even consider that," Yang Chuxia played with the puppies and asked, "Are they a month old yet? If they’re not, they might not be easy to raise."
"They just turned a month old today," Ye Zi’an put down the puppies and continued, "Which ones do you like? According to Shopkeeper Li, their father is an unusual breed, with long hair making them look cute, and they can grow pretty big, like a little lion. Looking at these puppies now, I guess they take after their father."
Based on Ye Zi’an’s description, Yang Chuxia felt that the puppies looked like chow chows, but that breed shouldn’t be present in this era, right?
Could it be that in this alternate reality, many things were different from her past world?
The more she looked at the puppies, the more they looked like chow chows. She used to love this breed; they looked majestic and their long fur was comfortable to hold.
"Brother An, I want these lighter-colored ones," she said.
"Brother Zi’an, I also want a puppy," Yang Xiayun, like all children, loved small animals and was already envious of Yang Chuxia picking out a puppy.
"You want one too? Alright, I’ll give you one to raise, and the rest will go to Brother Zi’an to be watched and raised as guard dogs," Chuxia replied.
"Okay!" Overjoyed at getting a puppy, Yang Xiayun obediently went to the side.
As for the brother duo, they weren’t particularly interested in the puppies and went back to their rooms after a quick glance.
Once everyone left, Yang Chuxia secretly told Ye Zi’an about the events she had encountered over the past few days. He found the affairs of Old Lady Hua and Ms.Lv of Hua Family quite repulsive.
"Xiaxia, what do you plan to do?" Ye Zi’an was clever enough to understand that Chuxia had a plan in mind after hearing her story.
"I asked Ms.Lv of Hua Family to keep an eye on the old lady. When there is news, she’ll inform me. Humph, I need to get rid of that disgusting woman quickly, lest she ruins the Feng Shui of our Yang Family home," she said.
"Do you need me to do anything?" Ye Zi’an asked, still puzzled. He thought Yang Chuxia was discussing the matter with him, but it seemed she had already made arrangements.
"You silly boy, what can you do in this kind of situation?" Yang Chuxia laughed, then continued, "Actually, the reason I’m telling you is because I wonder if Ms.Hua Junior is the same as her mother and aunt. Maybe we should find someone to keep an eye on her too. If she’s just like her mother, we can use it as an excuse to kick her out and take back your father’s belongings."
Upon hearing this, Ye Zi’an shook his head, "Ms.Hua Junior might be cruel, but I don’t think she’s the promiscuous type."
"Hmm, since you say so, she must be decent in this aspect, so we’ll leave her alone for now. After we deal with my step-grandmother, we’ll plan further and kick out your stepmother. Those with the surname Hua sticking around our village are really annoying," Chuxia agreed.
"Okay, let’s not rush my matter; I’ve been enduring it for years anyway."
