Ye Chen's arrival made Aunt Li particularly happy.
She asked Li Xiaofen to close the store early and took Ye Chen, Li Xiaofen, and Claudia to the market to buy ingredients.
In the market, Aunt Li didn't forget to buy a portion when she saw the specialty ingredients, saying that she must make a sumptuous dinner to feed Ye Chen.
After Ye Chen bought the ingredients with them, he got into Li Xiaofen's car and headed to his home in Vancouver with Aunt Li.
After Li Xiaofen came to Canada, she got her driver's license and bought a second-hand Chevrolet sedan, which drove Aunt Li and Claudia back and forth between home and Chinatown every day.
Ye Chen didn't expect that Li Xiaofen would buy such a second-hand low-end car, and couldn't help but ask her: "Xiaofen, why don't you buy a better car?"
Li Xiaofen said with a smile: "A car is just a means of transportation. There is no need to buy a good one. Second-hand cars are cheap and the insurance is cheap. It can save a lot of money. You don't have to worry about scratches or anything. This car has a small displacement."
, the fuel consumption is also smaller and practical.”
Ye Chen said seriously: "At least buy a new car. I'll give you one later."
Li Xiaofen said hurriedly: "Brother Ye Chen, please don't give me a car. I won't be able to drive it. It's not like you don't know me well. I grew up in an orphanage. I have been used to being thrifty since I was a child. I don't care about material things."
I don’t have any special pursuits, and my life now is much better than when I was in the orphanage, and I am content.”
As she spoke, she smiled and said, "Maybe I don't have the life to enjoy it."
After hearing this, Ye Chen nodded empathetically.
In fact, like Li Xiaofen, he has no special pursuit of material things.
If he is alone, there are actually no requirements for food, clothing, housing and transportation.
Cars don't matter to him. Strictly speaking, he still doesn't have a car of his own. He usually drives either Xiao Churan's car or Xiao Changkun's car when he goes out...
As for the car given to him by others, he was not interested at all.
Therefore, he also understood Li Xiaofen's diligence and frugality.
If a person does not have high material requirements, then good material conditions will make her at a loss.
The house Tang Sihai bought for Aunt Li is not far from Chinatown. It is the best and most expensive Chinese community near Chinatown in Vancouver.
This is a very typical North American single-family villa. Although the villa only has two floors on the ground, it covers a large area, has a larger yard and green space in front of the door, and gives people a very spacious and comfortable feeling.
This also made Ye Chen couldn't help but sigh. The green area of each household in the community where Aunt Li lives is even much larger than his home in Tomson Yipin. This is the advantage of the vast land and sparsely populated areas.
The entire community is very sparsely built and looks more like a big park with a very good environment.
Almost all the people you can see in the community are Chinese. Even if the Chinese living here do not have any basic knowledge of English, their lives will not be affected at all.
It is indeed very friendly to Chinese immigrants who have no foundation in English and cannot adapt to Western life.
Li Xiaofen parked the car and couldn't wait to take Ye Chen into the house to visit.
Houses in North America are not allowed to be sold as rough. They are basically fully decorated and equipped with home appliances before being sold to the outside world. Therefore, this house is very well decorated, and the supporting furniture and home appliances are all from international brands, and the overall grade is very high.
After Ye Chen visited the house, he was quite satisfied with it. It seemed that Tang Sihai did not treat Aunt Li badly. Such a house could definitely be regarded as a luxury house in Vancouver.
As soon as Aunt Li entered the house, she hurried to the kitchen to prepare dinner, and Claudia followed her to help.
Ye Chen originally wanted to help, but was kicked out by Aunt Li. In her words, Ye Chen was a guest from afar, so there was no reason to let guests go to the kitchen.
Seeing her firm attitude, Ye Chen stopped insisting.
Li Xiaofen took this opportunity to take Ye Chen to visit the villa.
At eight o'clock, Aunt Li, with Claudia's help, prepared a sumptuous dinner.
Li Xiaofen took out a bottle of juice from the refrigerator and said to Ye Chen with a smile: "Brother Ye Chen, no one drinks at home, let's use juice instead!"
Ye Chen nodded, took the juice, and poured four cups.
Aunt Li was in a very good mood. She picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "Come, let's have a drink together and welcome Marven to Canada!"
Li Xiaofen immediately clapped her hands and said with a smile: "Welcome brother Ye Chen, and I hope brother Ye Chen can come to Vancouver to see us more in the future!"
Ye Chen picked up the cup and smiled: "Thank you Aunt Li for your hospitality. If I have time in the future, I will come here often."
Claudia felt a little uneasy. It was already dark now. Even if Ye Chen changed his mind and wanted to leave with Li Xiaofen quickly, it might not be that easy.
Therefore, her mind was not on dinner at all now, but she was praying silently, hoping that there would be no accident tonight.
At this time, Li Xiaofen winked at Claudia and said: "Claudia, you are meeting brother Ye Chen for the first time today. Let's have a drink with him."
Claudia smiled slightly, nodded, picked up the juice, and said to Ye Chen: "Mr. Ye, let me toast you!"
Li Xiaofen hurriedly said: "Oh, don't call him Mr. Ye, just like me, call him brother Ye Chen!"
After saying that, Li Xiaofen looked at Ye Chen again and said seriously: "Brother Ye Chen, I treat Claudia as my own sister, and I am your sister, and Claudia is your sister's sister.
That is equivalent to your sister, so you must treat her like a sister..."
Ye Chen saw through Li Xiaofen's thoughts at a glance and knew that she must hope that he would avenge Claudia, so he deliberately arranged for Claudia, his "sister", to be his fault.
Ye Chen himself also admires Claudia, a little girl who is ill-fated but never gives up, and really wants to take this opportunity to give her a hand.
So, he nodded his head and said with a slight smile: "In this case, Claudia will just like Xiaofen from now on, call me brother, and if anything happens in the future, just tell me directly, I
Anyone who can help you will definitely help.”
Claudia hesitated for a moment and nodded with some emotion.
But as soon as Ye Chen's brother came to her mouth, she swallowed it back.
She is a slow-moving girl with a cold temperament and a relatively independent personality, so it is difficult for her to let go completely all at once.
However, her heart was indeed full of gratitude to the three people in front of her.
Needless to say, Aunt Li and Li Xiaofen, Ye Chen was able to say these words when she met her for the first time, which really made her feel protected.
She is the eldest sister in the family. She has not had the protection of her brother since she was a child, but she has two younger brothers who need her to take care of them. Although she has a very strong character and is really good at taking care of others, she is often like other little girls.
Deep down in my heart, I hope to have an older brother who can take care of and protect me. Especially after a huge change in the family, this need in my heart becomes even stronger.
This reminded her of what happened at the convenience store today.
When Huang Xinyu took Li Haoyang and her two followers to the convenience store to bully her, it was Ye Chen who took the initiative to stand up and protect him.
However, she never understood what method Ye Chen used to make Li Haoyang, who had always been obedient to Huang Xinyu, suddenly seem to lose his mind. It seemed that Li Haoyang was impulsive, but she felt
, things don’t seem that simple...
