Chapter Nine: Why Ernie Doesn't Talk

It was just dawn, and He Xiner woke up after sleeping all night. She looked at the roof and could only sigh silently.

I feel much better, so I can quickly solve my personal problems while it's still early and no one comes in.

Lying on the kang doing nothing, thinking about where this place is and who I will see today. Should I be able to see the biological father of this body today?

How will she face all the relatives in this body, all of whom are strangers to her?

By the way, I can understand Erni's cousin's accent without any hindrance. The northern accent and local accent are not very strong.

The accent is not too different from my own. But I don’t know everything here, so I’m afraid it will be easy to reveal the truth when I speak.

I'm not good at expressing myself, so in this situation it's better to say less to avoid disaster.

He Xiner made up her mind not to speak for the time being, but to observe other people's attitudes towards her.

I thought I would wait until I became familiar with the people and environment around me before I could find a way to find my way home.

With a creak, the wooden door was pushed open by Mrs. Ye Wang. She was holding a wooden basin filled with warm water in both hands and a half-old towel on her right wrist.

"Ernie, get up and wash up."

He Xiner slowly got off the kang, took the towel from Wang Ye, and slowly wetted her hands and face, but she didn't find the tool for brushing her teeth.

Just as she was thinking about how the ancients brushed their teeth, Mrs. Ye Wang handed over a small branch, and He Xiner subconsciously took it into her hand.

After looking at the branch for a few seconds, I thought of the novel I had read. Could it be that it was a soaked willow branch that could be bitten to achieve the effect of brushing teeth? He Xiner found out the truth, it was really used in this way.

While Mr. Ye Wang went out to pour water, He Xiner quickly put it in her mouth and bit it to try. Well, that's how it should be used.

If you don't have a toothbrush, you can only use this method, which is better than not brushing your teeth at all.

After a while, Mrs. Ye Wang brought two more bowls in and put them on the kang table. He Xiner looked at them and saw that they were the same as yesterday's dinner, one bowl with wild vegetables added to the paste, and the other bowl with steamed buns.

Seeing such meals, He Xiner felt that she had no expectations for eating anymore. Filling her stomach and not starving to death was the most realistic problem.

After finishing the meal with difficulty, Mrs. Ye Wang came in again and put the still steaming medicine on the Kang table. There was really no way to hide!

Staring at the medicine bowl, He Xiner thought to herself that her health was much better, so she would secretly throw it away later. This medicine was too unpleasant to drink.

He Xiner was making up her mind and was going to wait for Mrs. Ye Wang to go out and secretly pour the medicine into the toilet. At this time, a person walked in quickly outside the door. It was the cousin she met yesterday: "Er Nicole is better."

"

Mrs. Ye Wang smiled and replied: "She got out of bed and washed herself. She seems to be much better."

Then he said: "Xu Sheng still isn't going to school?"

"It takes half an hour to go to school, don't be in a hurry."

"Then you and Erni have a conversation, and I'll go feed the chickens first."

After Mr. Ye Wang went out, Ye Xusheng looked at He Xiner tenderly: "Er Ni, do you have some strength today?"

He Xiner remained silent and just looked at him silently. He was a very warm and sunny boy, like the big brother next door. Well, he was closer than the big brother next door. He was a cousin.

This cousin is very much like an older brother, and he cares very much about his second cousin.

He Xiner thought in her heart, what a warm-hearted cousin she is, and envied Erni's good fortune.

Ye Xusheng found that Erni was looking at him timidly with her moist and clear eyes like a deer, without saying a word. It was very strange.

Why do I feel that Erni is a little different from before, much quieter than before.

"Erni, why don't you speak?"

"But it's not good?"

"Are you afraid of taking medicine again?"

"Look what big brother brought you?
