Chapter Thirty-Eight: I Want to Get Ahead
Suddenly hearing Chen call himself, Ye Jinyan was slightly stunned and walked over.
Chen stroked Ye Jinyan's face and sighed, took out an old bracelet from his arms, and handed it to Ye Jinyan.
"Grandma has always wanted to talk to you thanks to your care over the years, but I don't know how to say it, I know that you are a strong child, I hope you can live better than grandma in the future, this is what my mother gave me when I got married, and now I pass it on to you."
Chen raised her eyes to look at Ye Jinyan, her eyes became brighter and brighter, like the dark clouds in the chaotic night, and the moon was shining in the sky.
Ye Jinyan bit her lower lip and nodded, although the bracelet in her hand was not worth a few pennies, she felt that it was extraordinarily heavy, heavier than the more than twenty taels of silver in her hand.
"Mother, it's not early." Ye Shouren was really not in the mood to watch this kind of scene of deep love between his ancestors and grandchildren, he just felt bored.
Chen nodded and was helped up by Ye Shouren.
They slowly moved towards the door, and Ye Jinyan and Ye Jinyu followed all the way.
Chen waved his hand and said with a smile: "Go back and go to bed early." ”
Ye Jinyan nodded, watching the door being gently closed, before reaching out and touching the corners of his eyes, which were a little wet.
Was this her tears, she always thought she was a wooden man who couldn't cry.
There was a bright moon hanging in the sky, and the moonlight was coldly sprinkled on the top of the house.
Ye Jinyu was still reading a book when he was about to sleep, and there were words in his mouth: "Zi said, learn and learn it, and don't say it......"
Ye Jinyan made the bed, raised her eyebrows and glanced at Ye Jinyu, who was sitting in front of the oil lamp, and shouted at him: "It's time to score points in reading, now is the time to sleep." ”
Ye Jinyu shook her head and learned the master's words: "Learn and learn from time to time, and don't talk about it." ”
Ye Jinyan didn't force him, but said, "Since you want to read the book, then read it." ”
Ye Jinyu stubbornly finished chewing half of the book, turned his head and saw that Ye Jinyan was asleep, he looked down at the book in his hand, carefully closed the book and blew out the candle.
He crept to Ye Jinyan's side and got into the quilt, but heard Ye Jinyan suddenly speak: "Don't read anymore?" ”
He shook his head, "Reading has to be divided into hours, this is what you taught me just now, sister." ”
Ye Jinyan breathed a sigh of relief, she knew Ye Jinyu's helplessness, in fact, she was the same, they were still too weak, just like ants. But unlike ants, she will never let others control her.
When they woke up in the morning, the ducks they kept in captivity were purring and laying four or five eggs.
Ye Jinyu was chasing ducks and picking up eggs in the duck pen, smiling as if she had picked up silver.
Ye Jinyan saw that the sun was not bad, so she took the quilt out to dry, and when she looked back, she saw Ye Jinyu smiling at her with duck dung on her face.
"Sister, look at these eggs, they're bigger than what we ate before!"
Ye Jinyan's face was calm, and he reminded lightly: "When washing duck eggs, wash your face by the way." ”
was reminded by Ye Jinyan like this, Ye Jinyu realized that she didn't know when there was a large piece of duck dung on her face.
His brow furrowed, and he staggered into the river.
Ye Jinyan looked at the ducks that were locked in the duck pen, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. In recent days, duck eggs can be picked up every day in the duck pen, and as long as you pick up a few more, you can make preserved eggs.
After Ye Jinyu washed the duck egg, she carefully put it back in the basket, and then began to scoop water and wash her face.
"Hey!" Someone behind him was calling him, and the voice was familiar to him.
Ye Jinyu's back stiffened, and when she turned her head, she saw Qibao wearing a light blue robe, standing behind him with his hands on his chest, very arrogant.
"I asked for a long time to find out that your house was originally here."
Qibao circled around him and sneered, "The clothes on my body are really torn, not as good as one of my shoes." ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his foot and kicked forward, letting Ye Jinyu see the new shoes he had just changed this morning.
Ye Jinyu's brows furrowed slightly, and a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes.
He has calculated, and he has a seventy percent chance of winning against Qibao, after all, Qibao is a pampered young master, and he is definitely inferior to himself in terms of strength, but he still has to stay away from his family background.
"What do you think of my expression? Eaten? Qibao frowned dissatisfiedly, and Qibao snorted and chirped, "I'm mainly here to find your ...... today."
Since you can't fight or theorize, it's better not to waste time with him again.
Ye Jinyu made up her mind and ran fast with the basket.
As soon as he returned, he closed the door.
Ye Jinyan walked out of the back room with a pile of clothes, and when she raised her eyes, she saw Ye Jinyu leaning in front of the door, and said in surprise: "What's wrong?" What's outside the door? ”
Ye Jinyu hugged the basket and said casually: "It's okay, I just saw a cow rushing towards me, and I was afraid that it would knock me away, so I closed the door." ”
"Oh, really?" Ye Jinyan looked at Ye Jinyu suspiciously, a little unconvinced.
Ye Jinyu nodded, but her eyes were erratic, and she didn't dare to look at Ye Jinyan.
"The cows won't rush in now, but how do I get out?" Ye Jinyan shook the clothes in his hand.
This dress has been saved up for several days and has not been washed, and it is estimated that it will stink if it is not washed again.
Ye Jinyu coughed, "Sister, you wait before you go out, and then ...... when the cow is gone."
Before he could finish speaking, he heard someone knocking on the door behind him.
"Anyone? Open the door! ”
Ye Jinyu sighed, but he didn't expect Qibao to run to the bright side instead of stirring up trouble behind his back, didn't he force him to fight.
Ye Jinyan put the clothes in his hand on the ground, looked at him and asked, "Did you see anyone just now, the person who bullied you before?" ”
Ye Jinyan's intuition was terrifying, Ye Jinyu coughed several times, but he unconsciously felt weak when he looked at Ye Jinyan's eyes.
"It's okay sister, he'll leave later."
Ye Jinyan felt a wave of anger in his heart, and wanted to go out to teach that kid a lesson, but then he thought about it, if Ye Jinyu repeatedly gave in, he might be bullied even worse.
"Are you afraid?" Ye Jinyan raised his eyebrows and asked.
To say that he is afraid of Ye Jinyu is really not, it's just that he thinks about a lot of things, so much so that he has to calculate the next step every step he takes.
Ye Jinyu didn't answer, but Ye Jinyan knew the answer, "Since you're not afraid, then go out and fight him to the death and see who is more powerful." ”
Ye Jinyu was stunned and stammered, "But ...... His family has money. ”
"Rich? Can money control our dignity? Ye Jinyan said nonchalantly.
"I know that you don't resist to protect me, but you must know that this world is the most unreasonable, whoever is powerful will have the upper hand, and there is never a weak person running rampant in the world."
Ye Jinyan's words made Ye Jinyu feel empowered, what his sister said was right, if he repeatedly gave in, the people who bullied him would be even more rampant, and even deprive him of his dignity.
Qibao knocked on the door for a long time, and was so angry that he was ready to crash in, but as soon as he touched the door, the door opened.
He didn't stabilize his body all of a sudden, and rolled on the ground twice with a grunt, but when he stood up in a daze, he saw Ye Jinyu looking at him indignantly.
"What are you doing here? You're not welcome! As soon as Qibao wanted to speak, he heard Ye Jinyu say sharply.
Qibao looked at Ye Jinyu, whose face was swollen and red, and hurriedly shook his head, and his voice suddenly lowered an octave: "No, I came to apologize to you today." ”
"What?" Originally, Ye Jinyu wanted to use the kung fu of housekeeping, but she didn't expect Qibao to soften all of a sudden.
Then he straightened his face again, "Don't think I'm going to believe you, you've used this trick several times." ”
