Chapter 385: Brain is not working
Wen Shi's letter is divided into two parts, the first part is written to Wen's mother.
The focus was on expressing his concern for Wen's mother's health, her sleeping conditions, etc.
Then he told her to eat and drink well, and not to be harsh on herself or his wife in order to save money.
You have to take good care of your health, otherwise you won’t be able to take care of your child when you have one.
Wen's mother was at a loss for words, and complained to Yi Chichi, "I told you that his brain is really not working properly sometimes. If a petty-minded mother said this, she would scold him for forgetting his mother after getting married, and it would also affect the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law."
"That's because he knows your personality, so he dares to give you such instructions."
Wen Shi is just straightforward, not stupid, and he has normal IQ.
He does have some experience in how to get along with mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Wen's mother thought the same thing, so she stopped complaining and continued reading with Yi Chichi. As she read, her face flushed and she stuffed the letter to Yi Chichi, "The rest is yours, I won't read it."
Yi Chichi is thick-skinned and is used to Wen Shi’s sweet words. She doesn’t feel shy at all.
She took the letter and asked, "Mom, are you sure you don't want to read it?"
"No."
The content of young people expressing their love affairs is not suitable for her to read.
"I'm going to make dumplings."
"I want one with sauerkraut filling."
"OK!"
Then, Wen's mother returned to the kitchen, and Yi Chichi finished reading the letter and took a pen and paper to write back to him.
I was halfway through writing when I heard a meowing sound coming from the door. I looked up and saw two furry cats strutting in with their tails raised and their steps cheerful.
Behind him are Qin Jiu and the brothers Da Zhuang and Er Zhuang.
There is also a little girl.
This girl is really not shy. After entering the house, she ran to Yi Chichi and smiled at her with her little mouth wide open.
"Auntie, I'm coming to your house to do homework!"
Yi Chichi's answer was to touch the candy and give it to her, "Write well, I will check it."
The little girl's smile suddenly fell. Could she say that she followed Brother Xiaojiu home just because she didn't want to do her homework?
"Why, you don't want to do your homework again?"
Yi Chichi knew her too well. As soon as he saw her expression, he knew what she was thinking, so he stared at her with a wooden face.
The little girl's scalp tingled when she looked at her, and she shook her head and waved her hands to indicate no.
She also vowed that she would write it well.
However, Yi Chi still didn't believe her, so she told Qin Jiu and the others, "You guys will supervise her until she finishes. You can explain the questions to her, but you absolutely cannot help her with her homework. If I find out, I'll beat you up. Remember?"
“Remember!”
Qin Jiu and the other two, who had succumbed to her pressure, responded in unison.
Yi Chichi was satisfied with this and led people to her workshop. It was as warm as spring inside, and the temperature difference from the outside was so great that it was like two different worlds.
The children were very energetic, and as soon as the four of them entered the house they felt a wave of heat.
"It's so warm."
Da Zhuang narrowed his eyes and sighed, looking like he was enjoying it to the extreme.
Er Zhuang didn't say anything, but his hands fell on the buttons of the big cotton-padded jacket. Yi Chichi saw this and quickly stopped him, "Don't take it off in a hurry, take it off later."
When the temperature changes from hot to cold, don't be in a hurry to take off your clothes. You need to let your body adapt first, otherwise you will easily catch a cold.
"……good."
Er Zhuang, who was stopped, responded obediently, withdrew his hands from the buttons, and pulled the strap of his shoulder bag with a restrained look.
Yi Chichi winked at Qin Jiu, told him to entertain the children well, and then left.
Before everyone left, they started chatting happily.
Yi Chichi smiled and left silently. A few minutes later, she came in with snacks such as dried shrimp, squid slices, chestnuts, hazelnuts, etc., and made a cup of jam water for each of them.
The jam was made by Wen's mother, using honey and a kind of small red berry. I don't know what it is called, but it tastes sour and sweet and is quite delicious.
I boiled ten cans in total, gave three to the old man and his family, two to Uncle Yaozi and his wife, and kept the remaining five for myself.
When Liu Lan and the others were here, I used it to entertain them and ate almost two cans.
There are about two and a half cans left now. Yi Chichi drinks it occasionally, but not normally because the jam water is too sweet for her.
But it's just right for kids.
The jam water that Yi Chichi brought in caused Niu Niu and the others to exclaim.
“This is delicious!”
Niu Niu praised it, then took another sip and held it in her mouth, reluctant to swallow it.
The same goes for the Dazhuang brothers.
Qin Jiu tried hard to suppress the upturned corners of his mouth, "You can drink more if it tastes good, but you still have to do your homework."
"Drink first and then do it."
"Can."
Then, the four children held their cups and started a tea party, taking a sip of jam water and a bite of dried shrimp.
Yi Chichi ignored them. This was not the first time they came to his house to do homework, so they were all well-behaved.
There is no need for her to keep a close eye on you, just call her to check after you finish your homework.
So, after writing her reply to Wen Shi, she went into the house, looked at her four children who were doing their homework obediently with their heads touching each other, and then sat down in front of the embroidery frame and started busying herself.
When Qin Jiu and the others finished their homework and wanted to check with her, they found that she was working.
Da Zhuang scratched his head, looked at the silk thread flying in her hands, and said in a low voice, "Auntie is embroidering, should we call her?"
"Don't shout."
Qin Jiu waved his hand. "My aunt tends to forget herself when she's working. Don't disturb her. Let's go out and play for a while. She'll probably get up soon enough to stretch her body and rest her eyes."
Brother Dazhuang had no objection, but Niu Niu didn't want to go because it was too cold outside, and besides, she was very interested in Yi Chizhi's work.
"I want to see my aunt embroider."
Qin Jiu was stunned for a moment, looked at Yi Chichi who was working diligently in front of the embroidery frame, then looked at Niuniu whose eyes were shining, and said softly, "Then you just watch and don't disturb her, okay?"
"OK!"
So, Qin Jiu and Da Zhuang brothers went out to play.
Niu Niu tiptoed over to Yi Chichi like a thief and took a look at the embroidery cloth. Her eyes suddenly widened and she gasped.
"Big Tiger!"
The voice was a little trembling, and Yi Chichi was awakened. He turned around and found her beside him. Her little face was a little pale. He quickly comforted her in a gentle voice, "Don't be afraid, Niuniu, this is fake."
“…I, I know it’s fake.”
But this eye is a bit scary.
She hesitantly asked, "Auntie, can I touch the big tiger?"
Yi Chichi, "Let me see your hand."
Niu Niu stretched out her little hand, and wow, it was chapped, swollen, and had frostbite.
"You haven't oiled your hands?"
"No."
She sighed, took out the ointment from the kang cabinet, poured hot water, and called Niuniu over to wash her hands. "Does it itch?"
“It itches when it’s hot.”
Looking up at Yi Chichi, the little girl asked with sparkling eyes, "Can I touch the big tiger if I wash my hands?"
"Can't."
It's too rough. It's not appropriate to use the word "rough" to describe a child's hands, but Niu Niu's hands are really rough.
There are cracks on the fingers.
It's really hard for her to hold back.
The face was well protected, but the hands were neglected.
The silk cannot withstand her touch and will get snagged.
