"Sorry, my sister isn't very bright..." Ye Yun quickly explained, giving Tian Xiaohui a look of exasperation, as if to say, "Will you die if you don't talk?!"
Tian Xiaohui: "..."
Okay, she acted impulsively.
However, she still had to say it.
Tian Xiaohui crossed her arms and raised her chin, saying, "Tan Zongguang, right? I know what you're thinking. Not to mention you, even I'm envious of my sister-in-law. But even if we're envious, she's already my brother's woman. Shouldn't we keep our distance?"
Tan Zongguang looked embarrassed, "I..."
"Stop talking nonsense. 'Little Ye,' what kind of 'Ye' is this? 'Ye' as in 'leaf' and 'cloud' as in 'cloud'? Don't you know what you're talking about? I heard from my brother that my sister-in-law is a cloud with a hat on it! Not that cloud that flies around in the sky like you!"
"Um... it's the character for cloud with the grass radical."
Ye Yun smiled apologetically and explained to Tan Zongguang, then quickly pulled Tian Xiaohui's arm to tell her to say less.
Tian Xiaohui waved her hand dismissively, "It's okay, I've already said everything! Awesome!"
Ye Yun: "..."
Okay, you've had your fun.
"I'm sorry, Teacher Tan."
She could only apologize to Tan Zongguang again, since he was also trying to help her.
Tan Zongguang smiled awkwardly and said, "It's alright, but you still need to continue making your mung bean cakes. This is a decision made by our school, and it has nothing to do with me personally..."
At this point, he said somewhat sadly, "I'm really sorry to say that I didn't know you were already married."
Ye Yun tugged at the corner of her lips.
The atmosphere was a little awkward, so she quickly handed the wrapped mung bean cake to Tan Zongguang, saying, "Teacher Tan, please take this home and eat it. Consider this meal a gift from me."
"good."
Tan Zongguang accepted the mung bean cake that Ye Yun offered without hesitation.
Then he took out a document from his pocket and handed it to Ye Yun, his voice as gentle as ever: "This is a document issued by our school, and this is also here."
Then he hung the mung bean cake on the handlebars and took out a wad of cash from his pocket.
"This is the deposit our school is paying you. It should be enough for you to buy the raw materials. Take a look."
Forehead?
The documents and money were placed together and handed to Ye Yun, who was surprised.
She smiled awkwardly, "I'm sorry, Teacher Tan, I..."
"Just take it. This has nothing to do with me. It's just that my father really likes your mung bean cakes." Tan Zongguang stuffed the documents and money into her hands, then rode off on his old bicycle.
He rode the old-fashioned bicycle steadily and disappeared from Ye Yun's sight in no time.
"Tsk...so devoted!"
As Tian Xiaohui watched Tan Zongguang leave, she once again offered her assessment.
Ye Yun: "..."
She silently stuffed the money into the purse at her waist, picked up the document, and Tian Xiaohui, who was next to her, also came over.
"Sister-in-law, what does this say?"
Tian Xiaohui hadn't attended school for long and didn't know many characters. When she saw the document covered with dense text that looked like ants crawling on it, only one big red stamp caught her eye.
"This is the receipt for Tan Zongguang's school purchasing mung bean cakes from us. He just paid me a deposit, and we can use this to ask for the remaining payment," Ye Yun explained patiently.
"oh……"
Tian Xiaohui nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.
Ye Yun looked at her and asked, "Xiao Hui, how many days of school have you attended?"
"Huh?" Tian Xiaohui scoffed at the mention of this, waved her hand, and said, "I don't want to go to school. Going to school costs money, so I might as well farm..."
She barely attended school.
She can only write her own name; she learned those big characters from her first-grade nephew.
Ye Yun smiled.
“If you do this, from now on, when your nephew comes home every day, you should also go through what he has learned.”
Tian Xiaohui asked, puzzled, "Why?"
"You'll need it." Ye Yun patted her shoulder and smiled, "Society will develop very quickly in the future, and being literate will be very useful."
Tian Xiaohui nodded, "Oh..."
Although she didn't understand much, she still planned to listen to Ye Yun and learn to read.
Ye Yun couldn't help but sigh.
Around noon, Qin Zheng returned after reporting on his work.
Ye Yun saw him from afar; he was holding a bottle of soda and riding a bicycle towards her.
The car screeched to a halt beside Ye Yun.
"Honey, this is something I swiped from work, drink up!" He offered the soda to Ye Yun with a fawning smile.
When the soda reached Ye Yun's hands, the thick glass bottle felt particularly substantial in her hand.
"Where did you get this?" Ye Yun looked at the soda in disbelief when she heard his words. Whose unlucky colleague's soda did this guy steal?
Qin Zheng chuckled, "Don't worry, this is a perk we received from our superiors."
They just won't let me bring it out.
Because glass bottles containing soda are subject to recycling, and there's a concern that people might take them out and not return them, that's why taking them out is prohibited.
He didn't care about any of that; he'd just return it next time he went back.
Since I was reluctant to drink anything myself, I immediately thought of bringing it out for my wife to drink.
"Wife, try it!" Qin Zheng urged her.
Upon hearing this, Ye Yun didn't stand on ceremony and took a sip of soda.
The sweet and sour soda flooded her mouth, instantly stimulating her taste buds. The refreshing and stimulating taste made her let out a satisfied sigh.
