Just when Fang Xian was doubting himself, Ming Xiaojiang called out in embarrassment, "Sister...are you...did the get out of class end?"

"Well, it's so cold, why don't you two go home and chat? If you really have nowhere else to go, just go to my house. I'm going to have dinner at Aunt Wu's house later."

"No, no, we... don't have... just..."

Ming Xiaojiang felt that his explanation did not seem as good as he expected. How should he explain it?

There was a rare look of confusion on his face.

Fang Xian, on the other hand, was somewhat tempted when he heard Ming Leyao's proposal. He hadn't been alone with his girlfriend for a long time.

"Mr. Ming, can I use your stove? Xiao Jiang has been studying hard recently, and I want to help her..."

The most important thing is that my boyfriend will go back to the county town to go to school the day after tomorrow, and I don’t know when we will meet again.

"Well, come back with me."

Ming Leyao was also very worried about the young couple. She settled them down and told them where the oil, salt, sauce and vinegar were kept at home, as well as some vegetables, meat and food. She also gave them the dog to take care of. Then she took half a pheasant and strolled to Aunt Wu's house...

Wang Dahu was chopping wood in the yard, and Wang Yue's thin body was working hard to carry it to the kitchen, her little face red from the cold.

Hearing the knock on the door, Wang Yue thought that it might be Ming Leyao who came, and her dull black eyes immediately looked towards the door brightly. This scene happened to be discovered by Wang Dahu, who was always paying attention to his sister.

He looked at his sister with curiosity. This was the first time on New Year's Day. In the past, his sister was not interested in anything, but now he could see desire in her eyes. It was really a good sign.

The courtyard gate opened in response, and Ming Leyao saw Wang Yue and Wang Dahu and greeted them generously, "Brother Dahu, Yueyue."

"Come in quickly, Leyao. Are you cold? Come inside and warm up."

"I got this from the mountain a while ago. It's quite plump. I stewed half of it before. I'll bring this half here to add to our meal."

Looking at the tender white chicken and thinking about how it was cooked, Wang Dahu subconsciously swallowed his saliva.

This is meat. During the Chinese New Year, he ate a piece of stewed meat with more fat and less lean meat.

He handed the basket to Wang Dahu, then took out a handful of candies and put them in Wang Yue's hand.

"Yueyue, sister will give you some candy. You can only eat one piece a day. If you eat too much, your teeth will hurt."

"Yeah, Yueyue... Yueyue listen to... sister..."

"good."

Wang Dahu first took the basket into the kitchen and said something to his mother. Aunt Wu immediately rushed out of the kitchen and said in a pretended angry tone, "You kid, you just came here, but what are you bringing? Does your aunt need this bite of food from you?"

"Aunt, what you said is too polite. Isn't it my duty to give something to honor my elders? Don't you think of me as your own?"

Well, this little girl is really good at turning the tables...

"Okay, you have a bad mouth, really."

Fifth Aunt nodded at Ming Leyao helplessly and pulled her into the house.

"You stay in the room and play with Yueyue for a while, then you can eat later."

"Okay."

The fifth aunt was going to cook, the eldest son was chopping firewood in the yard, and the second son and his father were working in the fields to earn work points. The only one who could entertain guests at home was Wang Yue, a somewhat introverted girl. Fortunately, she was not at all averse to Ming Leyao, and the two got along very well. Wang Yue even talked more gradually. Sometimes, she didn't need Ming Leyao to find topics to talk about, she would ask what she wanted to ask herself. When the fifth aunt brought the dishes into the house, she saw her little girl chirping like a sparrow, and suddenly felt a little dazed.

This is..

That half-mute daughter of hers? ? When did she become able to speak so well? ? ?

"Yue...yueyue..."

Fifth Aunt was a little bit unbelieving and confirmed hesitantly.

Seeing her mother come in, Wang Yue seemed to be suddenly awakened and suddenly became timid again.

"Mom...Mom...I'm sorry...I said too much..."

"No, child, no, you are not wrong, you don't need to apologize, just say more if you like, mom likes to hear it, and your sister Le Yao likes to hear it too."

"Yes..really?"

Wang Yue's big eyes were filled with confusion. She tilted her head with two pigtails hanging on her shoulders, looking particularly cute.

"Yeah, how could mom lie to you?"

"But my mother always told me not to talk..."

Aunt Wu felt choked. She finally understood why her daughter didn't want to talk. No wonder she went to so many hospitals and spent a lot of money. The doctors said there was nothing wrong. It turned out that it was her own fault...

"My dear child, you were still young at that time and didn't understand what your mother said. Think about it, when your mother asked you not to talk, was it when everyone was getting ready to go to bed, or when your mother was busy? Later, when your mother was not busy, did she ask you to talk more?"

Looking at her daughter anxiously, Fifth Aunt didn't know if this could help her daughter resolve her worries.

When she married into the Wang family, her parents-in-law had already passed away, so no matter whether she gave birth to the eldest or the second child, she was the only one who took care of the family and the children. At that time, the family was poor, and with so many children, they often did not have enough to eat. She had no choice but to leave the youngest son to the eldest son and let the two brothers fend for themselves at home. She followed her husband to work in the fields. After a few years, the children grew up, and life at home became better and they had more food to eat. The couple thought about having another child, it didn't matter if it was a boy or a girl. If it was a girl, it would be even better.

And just like that, two years later, Wang Yue was born.

However, the child was born at the wrong time, just as the movement began. The entire Shangjiaqiao Brigade was trembling with fear, fearing that if they took a wrong step, they would be doomed.

Under multiple pressures, Fifth Aunt was in a trance during that period, her temper became increasingly irritable, and she had no patience with the children. This short-term way of venting seemed to have helped Fifth Aunt find a way to relieve her stress, and it accompanied Wang Yue as she grew up.

In fact, to put it bluntly, a careless word from an adult can have a significant impact on a child.

Ming Leyao sat quietly aside, watching Fifth Aunt hugging Wang Yue and crying hard. Her tears, a mixture of many emotions, made everyone who was watching want to cry along with her.

"Good boy, it's my fault. I didn't explain myself clearly, and I didn't consider your thoughts. Can you forgive me?"

"able."

Wang Yue is still very dependent on her fifth aunt. In her little head, her mother is the greatest person in the world, so she has been autistic for so many years because of some of her mother's words...

"Aunt, you can let Yueyue play with Xiaoxue, or go to school together. Yueyue's current problem of not talking has been solved. It will only take time for her to recover. During this time, it is better to let her get in touch with people of the same age."
