Looking at He Xiner's sparkling eyes, Ye Xusheng felt mixed feelings. He lowered his head and was silent, then raised his head and looked at He Xiner: "Er Ni, I'm sorry."
He Xiner was confused: My cousin had helped her so much, why did he apologize to her?
Ye Xusheng looked at her confused face and knew what she was thinking, and sighed: "My second aunt fainted today because of my mother's anger. I'm sorry."
He Xiner then understood what he meant and waved her hand to indicate that it had nothing to do with him and it was not his fault.
Ye Xusheng felt more and more guilty: "Erni, don't take my mother's words to heart. You are very good. It's not what she scolded you. You are the best girl."
He Xiner said "Oh" in her heart, thinking that I didn't take it to heart at first, because I am not mute, and there is no such thing as giving birth to a mute child, but there is no way to say this.
Seeing that her cousin was so kind to her and took her mood into consideration in everything, she felt that it was not good to lie to him. She felt that she was a bit bad, so she couldn't help but lower her head.
Ye Xusheng looked at He Xiner, his eyes darkened, and his little head drooped, looking listless. He didn't accurately understand what she meant, thinking that she was sad because of the scolding, and felt even sadder. Damn, it was true.
It's too much.
Ye Xusheng felt a deep sense of powerlessness. These relatives let him down...
The two of them watched the fire in the furnace silently. When the medicine was cooked, Ye Xusheng took out the casserole with a rag as a cushion, poured the medicine into a bowl, and called He Xiner, "The medicine is ready, let's go."
He Xiner nodded obediently, and the two of them came out of the backyard without seeing anyone else, and went directly back to the west wing.
Unexpectedly, the atmosphere in the west wing was extremely good. Mrs. Ye Wang looked shy, like a newly married daughter-in-law. Her face was rosy and she looked in good spirits.
He Xiner didn't think about anything else. She was happy to see Wang's face look good.
Ye Xusheng was fourteen years old after all. He knew better and vaguely guessed something. He felt very uncomfortable when he thought of his mother baring her teeth and claws at his father.
Seeing that the medicine was ready, Ye Laiyin quickly took it and said, "Give me the medicine. You both have worked hard."
He Xiner shook his head, and Ye Xusheng also said, "It's not hard."
He Xiner touched the water in the teapot which was still warm, poured a cup for Wang and prepared it.
After Ye Wang drank the medicine and water, she said to Ye Laiyin: "I'm fine, you should go to the fields too."
He Xiner thought that several people hadn't eaten yet, and she still had four duck eggs in her room. She had a reason to ask her cousin to bring them over while he was there.
Waving her hand, Ye Laiyin told Ye Laiyin not to leave yet, and took Ye Xusheng to her house. Ye Xusheng was curious, so he let her pull him, and waited for He Xiner to dig out the duck eggs from the closet before he understood what she meant.
"Are you going to take out the duck eggs and give them to the second aunt?"
He Xiner pointed at him and herself, "You mean we all eat?" He Xiner nodded, pointed at him, and then at her little head.
Seeing her quirky look, Ye Xusheng felt better and said with a smile, "I know, I'll take it to my second uncle. Don't worry, I know how to say it."
He Xiner said in her heart: My cousin is Congyin! We walked out together with a happy smile.
Ye Xusheng entered the west wing and said: "Second uncle, yesterday afternoon I went to the reed swamp with Dong Qiang from Zhang Orion's family and picked up a few duck eggs. This one was cooked. I originally wanted to save a few more and then take them out.
It’s for Grandma.”
"We haven't eaten just now, so let's boil some hot water and eat one for each of us. My second uncle has to go to work, so it's not okay to be hungry."
Mrs. Ye Wang knew that her husband was hungry, but she also knew about her mother-in-law's temper. There would be no food in the kitchen at this moment.
Looking at the duck eggs, I couldn't help but feel happy, but I didn't dare to make the decision. My husband had always been a filial man, and all the money he earned from working during the off-season was given to his mother-in-law, leaving nothing behind. This chapter has been completed!
