Shen Jinjin drank all the medicine obediently, and then looked forward to hearing good news.
“Look at your feet.” Shen Chengzhi’s voice was tinged with a hint of doting.
When Shen Jinjin heard this, she quickly opened her quilt.
"My feet are untied. Will my grandmother be angry?" When Shen Jinjin saw her bruised feet, the first thing she thought of was that she was afraid that old Shen would be angry.
"It's okay, my brother has already talked to grandma, and grandma has agreed." Shen Chengzhi was afraid that she would worry, so he touched her head specially.
The little girl's fluffy hair felt quite comfortable in his palm.
Shen Jinjin felt that the force that bound his feet disappeared, and his feet didn't seem to hurt so much. The shackles that pressed on his heart seemed to disappear as well.
"Thank you, brother. You are the best brother in the world." The girl's eyes were filled with tears. She looked pitiful but cute.
When Shen Chengzhi heard her words, he couldn't help but feel sad. His sister was always so easy to satisfy.
"Brother will always protect you, and you will always be brother's favorite sister." Shen Chengzhi touched her head, like coaxing a child, with full patience.
Shen Jinjin laughed after hearing this.
Shen Chengzhi’s eyes fell on the instep of her feet, and he felt even more uncomfortable.
I saw that her originally white, tender and smooth instep was now covered with many mottled marks.
"It was also thanks to my brother's friend who persuaded him. Only then did my brother realize how wrong he was. Obviously, our Jinjin was the most innocent." As Shen Chengzhi spoke, tears flowed down his cheeks.
"Brother, don't cry. I'm right. I'm the best brother in the world." Shen Jinjin clumsily helped him wipe his tears.
"Jinjin, do you blame your brother? I blame you for being timid. When grandma asked you to bind your feet, you didn't stand up to oppose it. It's your brother who is useless."
Shen Jinjin shook her head like a rattle and explained in a panic: "Jinjin, don't blame brother, brother is the best brother. Brother is a man, it's shame to cry."
Shen Chengzhi touched her head and said seriously: “Our Jinjin is also the best girl in the world.”
“Hehehe.” Shen Jinjin kept grinning when she heard this.
"Brother, are you the brother who cut my hair last time?" Shen Jinjin asked.
It had been several months since the last time he cut hair on the street. Shen Chengzhi had already forgotten about it and didn’t think about it for a while.
"It's the brother who cuts hair and gave Jinjin a gift."
Although Shen Jinjin is young, she has a smart mind.
"That's true, but how come Jinjin remembers that brother so clearly?"
Shen Jinjin scratched his head and said seriously: "Brother, you only mentioned one friend to me, so I must have a deep impression of this brother."
Shen Chengzhi nodded her head, with a doting look on his face: "Our Jinjin is still very smart. When your brother is free later, he will come back from school every day to teach you how to read."
"Can I learn to read, too?" Shen Jinjin's eyes lit up when she heard the word "learn to read".
For women in the boudoir, a woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent. Learning needlework and being a woman's virtuous woman are more important than anything else.
For her, literacy was something she only dreamed of but never could achieve.
"Of course. Our Jinjin is so smart that she must think it's very fast." Shen Chengzhi always looks at his little sister through a filter, as if she is his brother.
Shen Jinjin scratched her fingers hesitantly: "Will grandma disagree?"
"Don't worry, I've already discussed it with my grandmother."
"Did grandma agree?" the little girl's eyes lit up.
"If my brother takes action, grandma will definitely agree." Shen Chengzhi said with a little smugness.
"Brother is awesome. I will start learning from tomorrow." Shen Jinjin couldn't wait any longer.
"Your illness is not yet cured, wait for some time."
"Yeah." Shen Jinjin responded as obediently as always.
…
In the past few days, Ji Yu found that Shen Chengzhi was like a big rooster with his head held high and his chest puffed out in class every day.
Every day he happily raises his head with a very proud look.
Ji Yu endured for several days, but couldn't help asking: "Brother Shen, what's the good news?"
Shen Chengzhi seemed to have been waiting for someone to ask, and he couldn't wait to get next to Ji Yu.
"Let me tell you, my sister is the smartest girl in the world. She has only studied the Book of Songs for half a month, but she has almost memorized it."
As Shen Chengzhi spoke, he also described the appearance of his own sister reciting the book.
Ji Yu didn't find him annoying, but instead listened with great interest.
Seeing that his mouth was dry after talking, I didn't forget to pour him a cup of tea.
"Do you think my sister is very smart?" Shen Chengzhi raised his chin towards Ji Yu with pride.
"Great, great." Ji Yu said sincerely.
“You haven’t met my sister, so I don’t quite believe what you said. I will definitely take you to meet my sister next time.” Shen Chengzhi said as he scratched his head, trying to find a suitable time.
However, it was really inappropriate for Ji Yu, a man from outside, to enter this courtyard and meet the female members of the family.
"I've thought of it." Shen Chengzhi patted his head heavily: "At the end of next month, September 16th is my birthday. Come and congratulate me then, and I will take you to meet my sister then."
Ji Yu nodded, agreeing to the agreement.
"If you meet my sister, you will definitely like her. My sister is super well-behaved and pretty." Shen Chengzhi was really gushing when he praised his sister.
"It's a pity that my sister has already been engaged, otherwise it would not be bad to promise it to you."
"My sister is already engaged, so don't even think about it. No matter how good my sister is, she is not yours."
"My sister is very cute. When she smiles, she has two dimples on her lips. It's true that spring breeze makes people intoxicated. There is no one in the world who is prettier than my sister."
Hearing his endless praise, Ji Yu had no choice but to agree: "Yes, yes, your sister is the best."
"Of course, she's my own sister."
