Chapter 421
The shadows of the trees are swaying and the cicadas are chirping.
Ying Sisi couldn't sleep because of the noise, so she leaned against the headboard to review today's study plan. She marked the parts she didn't fully understand in red and planned to ask the teacher for help after she recovered and went to the study unit tomorrow.
I don’t know how long it took.
The young man's gentle voice rang in my ears:
"Sisi, what's up?"
Ying Sisi: "The cicadas in the yard are too noisy. I can't sleep."
"I'll chase him away." Qin Yanci turned around and was about to leave.
Ying Sisi called out to him, "Aci, don't bother. I'm a little sleepless." Chase away the cicadas? How? Crazy! Don't you mind the heat outside? The weather in the north is cold in the winter and hot in the summer. She already understood why the old lady insisted on leaving.
She was sweating even when sitting still, and she really wanted to go back to the south to escape the summer heat.
She said, "You asked for leave for me. Did the teacher say anything?"
"No, it's your deskmate." Qin Yanci repeated Miao Ling's words.
Ying Sisi snorted, "I celebrate my dog's birthday instead of hers."
He always acts condescending towards her on weekdays, but when something happens, he expects her to help him with work and money. How could this be possible?
Qin Yanci laughed out loud. How could she be so endearing even when she was cursing?! "You sound so energetic when you talk. Have you recovered?"
"My limbs are so weak that I don't even have the strength to go to the toilet." Ying Sisi tried her best to make herself look pitiful so that he would feel sorry for her.
"Go to the bathroom? Do you want to now? I'll carry you there." he said.
Ying Sisi got goosebumps all over her body. Carry her? Hold her?
Alas!
So disgusting.
She pushed him away: "You hooligan, I don't want you to follow me!"
Qin Yanci was sitting on the edge of the bed, but was unexpectedly pushed out of the bed, nearly falling. He was speechless. Is this called weakness? When he had the strength, shouldn't he be pushed out the door?
"Yan Ci, Yan Ci! There's a call for you." Aunt Fang shouted from the yard.
"Got it." Qin Yanci went out to answer the phone.
A moment later, Aunt Fang came into the room and said, "Sisi, I've bought some glutinous rice and finished my chores. I'm going to be out for a bit. If I'm not back by lunchtime, you can make some noodles. I've already rolled them out and they're on the kitchen chopping board, covered with a cloth."
Ying Sisi knew that Aunt Fang had gone to the Shen family to inquire about the situation. "Okay, I wish you all the best."
"Thank you for your good wishes." Aunt Fang left with a smile.
When he went out, he met Qin Yanci and nodded as a greeting.
Qin Yanci glanced back at Aunt Fang's back. What had she said to Si Si that made her so happy? His eyes flickered, and he stepped into the house.
"Who called you?"
"It was Uncle Shen. He told me that Shen Ru was sentenced to six years, and asked me to find a chance to tell you." Qin Yanci didn't wait for Ying Sisi to respond and changed the subject: "What did Aunt Fang do in the room?"
Ying Sisi lowered her eyes. It had only been six years.
Why is the world so tolerant of bad people?
Xie Cuilan was also the direct murderer who killed her mother, and everyone saw it.
But no one cares.
She clenched her fists.
"Si Si." Qin Yanci called her.
Ying Sisi came to her senses and immediately waved away the hatred that was surging in her heart.
Don't worry, this matter will have results sooner or later.
Even if she didn't have the ability to cure Xie Cuilan, there was still Uncle Shen, right? He even attacked Shen Ru, so Xie Cuilan couldn't escape. She comforted herself and looked forward first.
She collected her thoughts and responded, "Well, that's right." She explained the reason.
Qin Yanci: "Aunt Fang is clearly trying to get ahead of her, but instead of stopping her, you're encouraging her. Aren't you afraid she'll use you as an excuse to tell the Shen family that you introduced her?"
"Who doesn't want to marry someone above their station? I've married you, haven't I?" Ying Sisi continued, "I didn't encourage her. What's the point of her using me as an excuse? Will the Shen family let Shen Zhengrong marry Aunt Fang's daughter for my sake?"
Qin Yanci was pleased by her first words: "You're trying to climb above my level? Do you really think so?"
Ying Sisi asked back: "What do you think?" She had only seen photos of him when he was young, so why would she want to marry into his class?
Of course it’s his family conditions.
There must be many women in this world who don't seek any benefits from men.
But it couldn't be her.
Everything she did was so that she could live a good life and have the opportunity to succeed.
Qin Yanci: “.” Can’t she just coax him?
Ying Sisi added, "Now that I've reached a higher level than you, I'm only planning to give birth to a daughter for you to tie you down."
The smile in Qin Yanci's eyes grew thicker, but was soon replaced by worry. Unless she stopped sleeping with that man, the child might not be his. Should he confess? After confessing, he would ask her to be his for the next month.
Can it be his next month?
Ying Sisi finally felt sleepy: "Aci, I'm going to take a nap." She lay down and closed her eyes.
Qin Yanci rubbed her face with the back of his hand, but Ying Sisi held him down: "Don't touch me."
The sun was scorching, and the leaves of the locust tree by the courtyard wall were wilted due to the sun.
Ying Sisi was awakened by the deliberately suppressed voices outside. She was the only one left in the room.
Under the shade of the trees in the yard, Aunt Qian and Aunt Fang from next door were standing together and talking.
She looked at them for a long moment.
I only heard Aunt Qian say, "You go ahead and do your work. I'll take care of Sisi myself. I know this place better than you do."
"You don't understand as much as I do. If she is still asleep, you must wait and don't disturb her. It will be terrible if Yan Ci finds out." Aunt Fang instructed.
“Hey.”
In the height of summer, the windows and doors were all open.
Aunt Qian came to the door and saw Ying Sisi leaning against the headboard. She smiled and said, "I just made some red date porridge. I heard your aunt say you had an upset stomach last night, so I just happened to give you a bowl."
Ying Sisi thanked her.
Aunt Qian sat aside and looked around: "Your room is so clean, unlike my daughter-in-law's, which is a mess like a doghouse."
Ying Sisi: "If you can't bear to watch it, why don't you clean it up for her? Then it won't be a mess, right?"
"I clean up for her? Who will clean up for me? Young people nowadays are too lazy. They won't be happy if you say a few words to them. Who among us was not diligent back then? If you dared to be lazy, your parents-in-law would beat you. My mother-in-law beat me so hard that the carrying pole broke." Aunt Qian felt very sad when she recalled those days.
Ying Sisi drank the porridge in small sips without saying a word.
Aunt Qian said, "Country girls are the best. They are hardworking, capable, and eager to learn. Just like you."
"My family is not well off, and I cannot provide even the slightest help to my partner in his career. When I got married, I took a betrothal gift of 800 yuan from my parents-in-law, and the dowry was also given by my parents-in-law in the name of my family. If I am not diligent and studious, why would they want me? If you think I am good, then I will go to your house, and you can help me make up the betrothal gift and dowry from my current parents-in-law, and I will recognize you as my mother-in-law." Ying Sisi joked.
Aunt Qian was stunned for a moment, then patted her hand and said with a smile: "After hearing your comparison, my wife is still pretty good."
