Chapter 53 I Wish I Could Slap Myself in the Mouth
Thinking that He Jinxuan was a soldier before and would inevitably have to contact his former comrades, he understood the meaning of Ye Sili's words: "Thank you, Sili."
Ye Sili smiled and waved: "You're welcome."
He also thoughtfully helped Yu Xinyan move the stool next to her: "Sister, sit down."
After saying that, she no longer disturbed Yu Xinyan, but ran back to the kang, picked up the small picture book that she had read before, and continued to read. Yu Xinyan glanced at him: "Sili, can you understand it?" The word?"
Ye Sili nodded and shook his head: "I only know some, but not most of them. My mother taught me some before, but then my mother died and there was no one to teach me."
He said, feeling depressed, probably because he missed his mother.
Yu Xinyan wanted to slap herself in the mouth and asked what was wrong. She had to ask this: "If you are willing, sister can take the time to teach you how to read."
Ye Sili raised his head and his eyes suddenly lit up: "Is it okay?"
Yu Xinyan saw him like this: "Of course."
Ye Sili laughed: "Well, I want to know a lot of words, and I want to be as good as my father when I grow up."
Yu Xinyan didn't know anything about the Ye family. She only knew that his mother was gone. She was afraid that she would ask the wrong thing again and make the little guy sad again, so she didn't ask anymore. She just said with a smile: "Come on."
Ye Sili was a very discerning person. When he saw Yu Xinyan sitting down, he replied with the word "ok" and did not disturb her again.
But from time to time, she would glance at Yu Xinyan, and she would not forget to reach out to test the temperature of her younger brother's forehead every once in a while.
Yu Xinyan quickly wrote the letter, read it through, and felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so she put it away and prepared to send it away before going out.
He got up and walked to the kang, tried Xiao Siyan's forehead, and thought: As long as there is no fever tonight, the child should be fine.
Seeing that he was sleeping soundly, he was afraid that he might not wake up for a while, so he said to Ye Sili who was beside him: "Sili, you are watching your brother at home. My sister is going out and will be back soon."
Ye Sili looked at his brother on the kang with a complicated expression. He wanted to go out with his sister, but he was worried that his brother would cry if he woke up and couldn't see anyone, so he was very conflicted.
Yu Xinyan saw what he was thinking: "Sister, I went to Grandma Xie's house next door to ask for some green onions, and I'll be back soon."
She had good eyesight. When she went out at noon, she saw freshly sprouted green onions on the window sill of Xie's house. She thought that Xiao Siyan would eat porridge at noon and give the child a change in the evening.
In addition, she saw that there was a vegetable pond in the Xie family's yard, and she thought that she would definitely save seeds for autumn, so she wanted to establish a good relationship first and see if she could get some seeds by the way.
But before she even went out, someone came to the courtyard.
The ones who came were none other than Mrs. Xie from next door, and the Zhao family's sister-in-law who came back to greet them before.
Yu Xinyan greeted her out: "Auntie Xie, sister-in-law Zhao, please sit in the room quickly."
Mrs. Xie smiled and said, "Is Si Yan's child okay?"
Before Yu Xinyan could reply, Ye Sili walked out of the room: "My brother is sleeping."
When Mrs. Xie heard what Sili said, she quickly lowered her voice: "Oh, let's just talk in the courtyard and we won't go in."
Sister-in-law Zhao is also very cheerful: "Yes, the sun is just right right now, so we can just talk in the courtyard."
As he said that, he handed over the two eggs he was holding: "Don't be too little, I will make up for the child later."
Yu Xinyan was a little embarrassed. She was not from the He family. The owner was not here, and the eggs were considered precious items. If she took them, wouldn't she be asking for trouble if He Jinxuan was not happy?
