"Not yet," Huang Xiaosi said, lowering his head awkwardly. "My mother just taught me a few words, and that's all I know."
"What did you say?" Jiang Xu asked incredulously, his voice suddenly rising, "Your mother taught you to read?"
"Hmm," Huang Xiaosi looked at Jiang Xu with a puzzled expression, "Uncle, what's wrong? Is there a problem?"
Of course there's a problem!
This is a huge problem!
His older sister is illiterate; how can she teach others to read?
Could it be that you just made it up to fool people?
Thinking of this, Jiang Xu immediately became nervous.
Full of questions I wanted to ask, but unable to speak, I could only walk around the yard in circles.
Jiang Nuan came out arm in arm with Grandma Jiang and saw Jiang Xu stamping his feet in frustration.
Immediately, I was speechless.
She frowned and said unhappily, "Jiang Xu, I was just having a heart-to-heart talk with Mom, is it really that big of a deal?"
It's not like he's a three-year-old child. Why does he have to be inseparable from his mother for even a moment?
childish!
"Mother, come with me." Jiang Xu ignored Jiang Nuan and hurriedly pulled the old lady Jiang to a corner.
Seeing this, Jiang Nuan pursed her lips uncomfortably, turned her face away, and sat down on the stool next to her.
On the surface, it's just a minor emotional outburst.
In his mind, he had already given Jiang Xu a good beating.
That clingy brat! She hasn't even spent much time with her mother before she snatched her away. How annoying!
She's a married woman who rarely gets to see her mother, and Jiang Xu is so stingy. He deserves a beating!
"Mother," Xie Shi sensed that Jiang Nuan was not happy, so she immediately came over, "The dough is ready, would you like to come and make dumplings?"
“Okay,” Jiang Nuan nodded, “The more people there are, the faster it will be packed. I’ll help too.”
In the corner, watching her son scratching his head anxiously, Grandma Jiang was completely bewildered. "Eldest son, what happened? Why are you in such a hurry?"
“Mother,” Jiang Xu lowered his voice, “I just heard Xiao Si say that eldest sister is teaching him to read.”
"What?" Grandma Jiang's eyelids twitched in surprise. Realizing her lapse in composure, she quickly lowered her voice, "Are you serious? Ya Ya is teaching Xiao Si to read?"
“Not only that,” Jiang Xu said with a bitter face, “I saw a lot of sand tables on the ground. I’m afraid Xiao Si isn’t the only one learning to read.”
This is so worrying!
If it were just Huang Xiaosi alone, it would be easy to fool him with a little effort.
What are we going to do with so many people?
You can't just say your mother is illiterate and taught you badly, and that you've been fooled, right?
"Don't worry," Old Madam Jiang calmed herself down and reassured her, "Let me go ask and see if there's any misunderstanding."
Her daughter couldn't possibly be that stupid.
This secret has been kept well all these years, how could something have gone wrong?
There might be some misunderstanding involved.
She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and walked to Jiang Nuan's side with her hands behind her back. "Ya Ya, come with me. I need to talk to you about something."
“Mother,” Jiang Nuan wiped her hands, glanced at the old lady Jiang with a puzzled look, and then walked to the corner, “What do you want to see me about?”
"Yaya," Grandma Jiang gripped Jiang Nuan's hand tightly, "Your brother said you're teaching Huang Xiaosi to read, is that true?"
"It's true," Jiang Nuan asked cautiously, "Can't I teach it?"
She felt that Grandma Jiang's expression was a bit off.
A mix of nervousness, fear, and regret...
It was as if she had done something she shouldn't have!
Jiang Nuan carefully reviewed what she had done. She realized that she had neither broken the law, committed a crime, nor violated any moral principles.
He hid in the yard like a nobody, not doing anything at all.
Great, I wasn't the one who made the mistake, Jiang Nuan immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Upon hearing this, Grandma Jiang was speechless.
If they really know how to read, they can definitely teach them.
Teaching someone who can't read is just harming them, isn't it?
