Futaba rested her chin on her hand, deep in thought.

Er Ye is in the second year of junior high school. Early romance is quite common among junior high students in rural schools, so Er Ye is no stranger to such things. In addition, she is too beautiful. Although Yang Wanwan tried her best to make her look ugly, her natural beauty was hard to hide, and she was still so eye-catching.

Therefore, Futaba received many love letters.

Of course, my older sister also received all sorts of love letters when she was in junior high school.

Yang Wanwan seemed to have no qualms about these things, constantly reminding her younger siblings not to date too early, and even analyzing the rhetoric and literary style of love letters with them...

So, what could make the eldest sister seem so distracted?

Futaba's analysis suggests it's definitely love.

Yes, that's right!

My older sister is already seventeen years old, and she's so beautiful, academically excellent, and capable. There must be boys in high school who like her.

Moreover, the boys at Yucai Middle School should be more charming than the boys at Fuxing Reservoir Village Middle School. In any case, as long as you go to Yucai Middle School, you will definitely be able to go to university in the future, and your future will be bright.

Could it be that my older sister has also fallen for a boy?

Futaba thinks that's probably true.

Apart from that, Futaba felt there was nothing that would make her older sister look so distracted.

That's what she thinks.

After finishing his work, Shang Tao also came to look at the manuscript. As he read, he pointed to this passage and asked Er Ye, "She would never know that he, such a taciturn person, is constantly having conversations with her in his heart... Second sister, eldest sister's words in this passage are so profound, what does it mean?"

Futaba said, "Yeah, it's this guy who's fallen for this girl."

Shang Tao is already twelve years old and has a vague understanding of these things.

"Of course I know the guy likes the girl. My question is, why doesn't he just say it directly instead of keeping it to himself?"

Er Ye glared at her: "So you can't write novels, but my older sister can."

Shang Tao retorted, "Second sister, you're so fierce!"

Er Ye covered her face, realizing that she was actually angry and had even scolded the unsuspecting Shang Tao.

Are you jealous?

If the eldest sister really likes someone else, wouldn't she be less fond of herself and Shang Tao?

Waaaaah...

She doesn't want her older sister to like anyone else...

upstairs.

Yang Wanwan knew nothing about any of this.

She stared at the manuscript, unable to write a single word.

My mind is filled with images of Pan Xingzhou.

He was everywhere, making her heart unsettled.

But where exactly is he?

Before she knew it, it was getting dark, but Yang Wanwan didn't notice and continued to stare blankly.

It wasn't until Er Ye came up to call her for dinner that Yang Wanwan hurriedly gathered the documents on the table and rushed downstairs.

Erye walked behind and glanced at the manuscript on her desk... "Big sister, have you been daydreaming about love all afternoon?"

Not a single word was written!

During dinner, Shang Tao chattered on about Yang Dali's family. Yang Wanwan perked up and listened attentively, analyzing the situation for her.

Halfway through the meal, Grandpa Yang arrived, which caused the black dog in the yard to bark loudly.

Yang Wanwan kept a black dog in the yard to guard the house, also to prevent bad people from harming Er Ye and her brother.

After returning home in the afternoon, she went to her grandparents' house and brought them some food. At that time, Grandpa Yang was not home; only Grandma Yang was there.

At this time, Grandpa Yang must have come for something.

"Wanwan, you're back! How's school going?"

Yang Wanwan welcomed Grandpa Yang in, "I'm fine, Grandpa. Have you eaten? Would you like some more?"

"I've eaten, I've eaten. I just came to ask you something. I'll go back after I'm done. It's getting dark, and the road is difficult to walk on."

"What is it?"

Grandpa Yang sighed and said, "Everyone in the village is saying that Dali was taken away because you reported him, isn't that right, Wanwan?"

"Grandpa, Uncle was taken away because he did something wrong. It was his own fault."

Yang Wanwan's answer was very clever.

Grandpa Yang, of course, also understood the subtlety in it, which confirmed what he had in mind.

Grandpa Yang sighed again and said, "Wanwan, your uncle has let you sisters down. As your grandfather, I am not very capable and cannot help you sisters. I feel very guilty."

Grandpa Yang really didn't help the sisters in this matter. If he hadn't been given a second chance at life, the sisters would still be the ones abandoned by fate.

However, she did not complain about Grandpa Yang.

“Grandpa, you are you, and Uncle is Uncle. I have never complained about you, Grandpa. You don’t need to feel guilty.”

Grandpa Yang took a puff of his pipe. "Your uncle, I don't know when he changed, he went astray. Sigh! He's harming others and himself!"

Yang Dali was, after all, Grandpa Yang's own son, so Yang Wanwan didn't know what to say and remained silent.

Grandpa Yang kept shaking his head, "Dali, he did something stupid! Heaven is watching what people do. I've told him so many times before, but he just wouldn't listen!"

Grandpa Yang grumbled and sighed deeply.

"Old man! Old man!"

Grandma Yang's voice came from outside the door.

Grandpa Yang said helplessly, "Your grandma is here. Sigh! She's worried about me."

Shang Tao laughed, "Grandpa, Grandma was just worried that it would be inconvenient for you to get home in the dark, so she was using a flashlight to light your way."

Grandpa Yang: "Little girl! Tell me, have I become so confused that I can't even tell right from wrong? Listen to how loud that voice is..."

As they were talking, Grandma Yang came in and immediately launched into a barrage of questions: "Wanwan, what did your grandfather say? He didn't say you should plead for him, did he?"

Yang Wanwan immediately understood what he meant and quickly said, "Grandpa didn't say anything. Grandpa heard that I was back, so he came to see me."

Grandma Yang didn't believe it at all and started chattering away: "Wanwan, how could a little girl like you command the county's special investigation team? It's all Nian Meili and your aunt spreading rumors! Your uncle is already in this state, and they don't know how to keep a low profile, yet they still spread rumors about you! They're going around crying and shouting that you reported them, what's their purpose? Isn't their purpose to get your grandfather to come looking for you and to make you go to the county to plead for leniency! What kind of place is the county? Is it a place a little girl like you can go?"

Grandma Yang, catching her breath from speaking too hastily, continued, "Don't they even look at the things they do! Wanwan has said so many times that the calculation for the road repair work is wrong, but they won't listen! Yang Xinqiao and Yang Tianbao are clearly the same as Wanwan's family, but they just won't give them a higher number! These heartless bastards, they still want my Wanwan to save them? Don't they know how they harmed Wanwan? This is retribution, retribution! They deserve it, they deserve it! Reporting them is what they deserve!"

Grandpa Yang said helplessly, "Old woman, I haven't said anything yet, why are you scolding me like this?"
