Wang Yue tidied himself up and walked towards the shop.
Their family’s shop was not far from home, only a five-minute walk away.
Upon arriving at the shop, the family had already gotten ready and were preparing to depart.
Seeing his brother’s bulging belly, Wang Yue couldn’t help but want to laugh. He recalled how, when he was in college in his previous life, his brother had determinedly decided to lose weight and eventually succeeded.
Wang Hu now appeared tall and plump, looking endearingly simple.
“Let’s go!”
Second Aunt’s home was not far from Wang Yue’s home, only about a ten-minute walk.
Along the way, Pan Huiying and Wang Jianguo were chatting.
Wang Yue, on the other hand, was talking with Wang Hu.
Their conversation was nothing more than games, girls, and celebrities.
Wang Hu’s greatest hobby was playing games, especially all sorts of first-person shooter games.
This had become a headache for Pan Huiying and Wang Jianguo. After all, Wang Hu was already of marriageable age, yet he was still addicted to games every day, which was truly inappropriate.
Wang Yue knew that Wang Hu was merely using games to escape reality. In truth, most people whose lives were unsatisfactory enjoyed using games to pass the time.
He had known this in his past life but was powerless to change it. In this life, however, Wang Yue had the ability to make a difference.
As they chatted and talked about everything under the sun, they unknowingly arrived at Second Aunt’s residential complex.
Wang Yue realized that even after being reborn, he still couldn't remember which building or unit his Second Aunt lived in. This was probably related to the fact that he had only visited a few times in his previous life.
Led by his parents, Wang Yue arrived at Second Aunt’s doorstep.
“Knock, knock, knock.”
Pan Huiying knocked on the door.
With a creak, the door opened.
Wang Yue’s Second Aunt, Pan Huiqiong, peeked her head out.
Seeing everyone, Pan Huiqiong smiled and said, “You’re here, come in quickly.”
After entering, many people were already in the living room.
Besides Pan Huiqiong’s family, relatives from Second Uncle’s side were also present.
Wang Yue didn’t know any of these relatives, but one little brat left a particularly deep impression on him, as he was the cause of much trouble in his previous life.
This little brat, seeing how fat Wang Hu was, kept teasingly calling him "big pig" and "ugly monster," and other such names. His family didn’t stop him; instead, they smiled and indulged him.
As a result, Wang Hu got angry and picked up the child, spanking his backside twice. The parents then became indignant, saying that the child was young and an adult shouldn't bicker with a child. In the end, the gathering ended unhappily.
Wang Yue found a sofa and sat down.
Wang Hu sat next to him.
Wang Yue took out his phone, intending to browse through his social media feed.
Wang Hu’s eyes widened. “Whoa, an Apple phone, where did you get that?”
Wang Hu browsed the internet daily and naturally knew the value of an Apple phone, costing several thousand yuan. At this time, using such a phone was considered being a tycoon by ordinary people.
“I found it.”
Wang Yue fabricated an excuse.
Wang Hu knew their family's financial situation; they certainly couldn't afford to buy one.
“You’re so lucky! Let me play with it.”
Wang Hu said enviously.
Wang Yue handed him the phone.
Wang Hu played with it for a while and praised it incessantly, “It’s truly smooth. I thought all the online hype was fake.”
“I’m so envious of you, kid. You can find such a good phone; I can only find a Nokia at best.”
After playing for a while, Wang Hu returned the phone to Wang Yue.
Although he liked it, he wouldn’t ask his younger brother for something like this, especially something so valuable.
The television was showing Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf, which caught Wang Hu’s attention.
Besides movies, Wang Hu also liked watching cartoons, and he watched this childish animated show with great interest.
“I will be back!”
With Gray Wolf’s cry, the episode ended.
Three small children were sitting on the sofa. The one in the middle started jumping up and down as soon as the TV show ended.
“Next episode, next episode.”
The child looked around for the remote control.
Then he spotted Wang Hu.
He then pointed at Wang Hu and started laughing heartily, “Pigsy! You look just like Pigsy!”
Wang Hu felt awkward but didn’t want to argue with a child.
“Mom, look, it’s Pigsy.”
The child ran to an adult sitting on the sofa playing with their phone and pointed at Wang Hu, saying, “It’s Pigsy.”
His mother glanced at Wang Hu. She didn’t say anything but smiled and said to her son, “Pigsy, then who is Sun Wukong?”
“Of course, I am Sun Wukong,” the child immediately replied.
Then he hopped in front of Wang Hu and pointed at him, saying, “Second Brother, quickly call me Eldest Brother.”
“Heh, the child is quite cute.”
Wang Hu smiled awkwardly.
“Pigsy, I’m Sun Wukong. Didn’t you hear me telling you to call me Eldest Brother?”
The child put on a stern face and spoke even louder.
Wang Yue watched with cold eyes. What the child was saying now wasn't too excessive yet. Soon, more outrageous things would be said, and at that point, he wouldn't need to show any more courtesy.
Wang Hu no longer wanted to pay attention to the child and simply took out his phone to play.
Seeing that Wang Hu was ignoring him, the child felt his pride wounded.
He was accustomed to being domineering at home, and his parents' indulgence had cultivated a spoiled personality.
So, the child ran back in front of Wang Hu, trying to snatch his phone.
“Give it here! Pigsy still dares to play with a phone.”
Wang Hu was a bit annoyed. He pulled the phone back, and the child instantly fell to the ground.
“Wah…”
Then the child started crying, and his wails were earth-shattering.
As the child cried, his mother immediately stood up and picked him up, “Don’t cry, son.”
She then sternly said to Wang Hu, “Why are you, an adult, bickering with a child? If he wanted the phone, you should have just given it to him.”
Wang Hu, not being eloquent, said nothing, just stared at the woman.
He then turned to pacify the child, “Don’t cry, son. We won’t play with this stingy uncle anymore.”
“He’s not an uncle; he’s Pigsy,” the child shouted loudly.
“Alright, alright, we won’t play with Pigsy anymore. Let’s go.”
The woman carried the child to another side. The child stopped crying and even poked his head out to make a face at Wang Hu.
Wang Hu didn’t pay much attention, only muttering softly, “No manners.”
No one paid much attention to this minor incident.
Soon, it was time for dinner.
Two tables were fully occupied, and the dishes were abundant.
Those who drank alcohol sat at one table, and those who didn’t drink sat at another.
Wang Yue and Wang Hu sat at the same table as the woman and her child; the troublesome child was among them.
Seeing Wang Hu also at this table, the child immediately started causing a scene, “I don’t want to sit at the same table as Pigsy. Seeing him ruins my appetite.”
Everyone else was surprised.
Wang Hu gave an awkward smile and didn’t respond, instead picking up food for himself.
The child continued to fuss, “Look at how Pigsy eats; he's like a big pig in a sty, it ruins my appetite! I’m not sitting with him.”
The child’s mother looked at Wang Hu impatiently and said, “Didn’t you hear what my son said? Be magnanimous, an adult like you, and go eat at the other table.”
“Then let him go; why should I go?”
Wang Hu was finally getting angry.
“Big Pig, why are you yelling? You’re so ugly, and you still have the nerve to talk back?” the child immediately shouted.
“Bang!”
Just then, Wang Yue slammed his chopsticks down and stood up.
“Did you little brat eat shit? Your mouth is that foul?”
The child’s mother became displeased.
She immediately stood up and started to make a scene.
“How can you speak like that? Have you no manners?”
Facing the woman’s words, Wang Yue grinned, “You raised such a brat, did you feed your manners to the dogs?”
