"Yes, En'er. Sit for a while. I'll make you your favorite red date cake later." The woman who spoke was dressed in plain clothes. Because she was too thin, even the washed and starched clothes looked extremely loose.
Shangguan En poured himself a cup of hot tea. When he was a child, he resented his mother. He hated her for not fighting for anything, hated her for giving birth to him, and hated her for not letting him be loved.
But the older he got, the more he felt about his mother. To be able to treat him well, since he was strictly speaking the son of her enemy, she must have put in a lot of effort.
Besides, his mother had never been exposed to these things, so what was there to fight for? It would only add to her troubles and bring trouble.
"En'er, look at the new clothes your mother made for you." Chen Ye took out the undershirt with almost no visible stitches, and said softly, as if she was presenting a treasure.
Shangguan En took it and looked through it carefully as usual. This would make Chen Ye happy. Just this little thing could make his mother happy for a long time.
"En'er, there are some things that mother doesn't understand, but we just don't want the Shangguan family's things. After a hundred years, we will be free." Chen Ye tightened his hands on his sleeves. What time can't take away is the endless hatred.
She was originally a girl from a good family, but her life was a little difficult, but she could still live. However, she happened to meet that beast Shangguan Heng, who destroyed her innocence and abused her.
"Mom, I know. I will take you away from the Shangguan family in a legitimate way." Shangguan En held the clothes in his arms and said firmly.
The Shangguan family is a den of dragons and tigers, a nightmare, a cage that traps his mother, and a vampire that sucks his blood. No matter how hard he tries, he is only making wedding dresses for others.
"Dad, Mom, will Sister Wanwan agree?" Wan Ning felt a little nervous as he walked to Ye's house.
Yang paused and said softly, "That depends on Ning'er's performance. As long as Wan Ning is serious and eager to learn, I don't think Sister Wanwan will reject you."
"That's good, thank you, Mom." Wan Ning nodded heavily, as if to cheer himself up.
In the main hall of the Ye family, Ye Wanwan was holding the geographical map and had not moved since breakfast. She was really fascinated by it.
"Sister-in-law, Ning'er can just come when she has time. There's no need to be so polite between us." Ye Wanwan said hurriedly after Yang explained her purpose.
She is just a guest star, she is not the real master, how can she take such a big piece of meat!
Yang waved her hand and took the meat to the kitchen by herself, without paying any attention to Ye Wanwan who was following behind her.
"If I say accept it, you have to accept it. Wan Bin and I have long wanted to let Ning'er learn to read and write, but our family conditions don't allow it and we can't afford a teacher."
"Well, we finally met a literate girl, and we're happy to meet her. Please don't be polite anymore, or I'll get angry."
Ye Wanwan was a little helpless. Her friend was too enthusiastic. What should she do? "Sister-in-law, I don't have much knowledge. I can only teach them to read. I will shamelessly accept it this time. If you take it again in the future, I will return it."
"It's good to know how to read. Okay, it's settled. The meat cannot be returned." Yang hung up the meat in a familiar manner and led the way out of the kitchen.
Wan Ning was already practicing calligraphy while watching Ye Ansheng. Ye Ansheng wrote every stroke seriously. Wan Ning clapped his hands from time to time. Even though he didn't understand much, he picked up a small stick and started drawing on his own.
"Ansheng, teach Wan Ning to write her name so I can have a conversation with my sister-in-law." Ye Wanwan reminded Ye Ansheng as she passed by him.
Ye Ansheng nodded and responded loudly with "Okay".
When Ye Wanwan spoke to Yang, she only talked about family matters and did not mention anything about the Shangguan family's business. They could only wait until the time came to go and see the situation together.
She had only heard about the Shangguan family's affairs and could not jump to conclusions. If she spread rumors about something that was completely false and ruined everything, it would become her fault.
"Wanwan, your house, I'm not saying too much, but it might be dangerous if it snows at the end of the year." Maybe the weather was a little cold, and somehow, Yang thought of this.
Ye Wanwan nodded. "My sister-in-law is right. I'm afraid it's too late to repair it now. I was thinking of setting up a stall in town and renting a room for the winter. My parents are a little reluctant, so I'm thinking of other ways."
"That's true. If you go to the city and don't know anyone, it's bound to be a bit deserted, and there might not be much of a New Year atmosphere." Yang nodded. Although the village was poor, it was full of the New Year atmosphere.
Ye Wanwan sighed. If the Ye family was in that situation before, they would have left immediately. However, now the villagers are not so hostile to the Ye family. Both of them have a stronger sense of belonging to Linjia Village.
The agreed time for learning to read has arrived. Looking at the group of young and old people in front of her, Ye Wanwan decided to use the "Three Character Classic", which is popular all over the country and engraved in their bones, to enlighten them.
"When a man is born, his nature is good..." The voice was a little halting as he read along in a very serious manner, but it was considered the official start.
The conditions were simple, but better than a few days ago. Ye Wanwan had bought paper and pens out of her own pocket! Apart from anything else, the heavy bleeding was real. Even if they bought the cheapest items, it was still a heavy bleeding!
It's difficult for a poor family to produce a noble son, and there is a reason for that. Just this pen, ink, paper and inkstone are enough to support a family of several people for a long time. One word, expensive; two words, really expensive; three words, too expensive!
"Sister Wanwan, why don't I write on the sand?" Lin Tiantian held the pen awkwardly, reluctant to put it down.
He is not a child anymore. He knows that paper and pens are expensive. He is very satisfied that Sister Wanwan is willing to teach him. How could he use paper and pens that others have bought with hard-earned money?
"Be good, write boldly, it's just the money to buy paper! Your sister Wanwan can make money!" Ye Wanwan felt a little distressed and said proudly, money is to be spent, and she is happy to spend it this way.
"Well, Ning'er is great. The handwriting is very neat, but it would be better if it were a little more compact." Ye Wanwan held Wan Ning's hand and wrote the elegant word "Wan Ning" on the paper.
Wan Ning looked down at it, liking it very much. He raised his head and asked, "Sister, can you teach me how to write my mother's name?"
When my mother talks about learning to read, there is always a hint of fluctuation in her expression. If she teaches her mother to write her name, she will be happy too.
Looking at Wan Ning's innocent look, Ye Wanwan was a little touched. She held Wan Ning's hand and wrote Yang's name neatly on the paper - Yang Jing.
"Sister, sister, sister, look at what I wrote. This is my first time writing with a pen, and I'm still not used to it." Ye Ansheng raised his hand, anxiously, very anxious.
