Twenty yuan was three months' worth of living expenses for a family in those days, especially in a remote and underdeveloped rural area.
It was this woman who lent a helping hand when the original owner was in the most difficult time, and Ye Wanying remembered this kindness.
Chen Yunqing was taken aback for a moment, and did not take the money immediately. Instead, she pulled the person to sit down on a chair next to her: "You silly child, why are you being so polite with me?"
Clearly, Chen Yunqing felt that Ye Wanying was being too formal and was very unhappy.
"Aunt Qing, this isn't just politeness. I'm truly grateful to you. If it weren't for you, my child probably wouldn't have survived. Even if he had been saved, he would have suffered lasting consequences. Back then, even his own grandmother had given up on him. It was you, Aunt Qing, who saved my son's life!"
Ye Wanying was already indifferent to worldly affairs, but she still knew that the debt of gratitude for saving a life was greater than anything else. That lovely child almost died, or might be mentally disabled in the future—just thinking about it made her heart ache!
Chen Yunqing sighed, took Ye Wanying's hand and said, "Silly child, since that's the case, bring the child here when you have time!"
In truth, Chen Yunqing had also noticed that Ye Wanying, the girl from his memories, had changed. If he didn't accept the child's thanks, the silly girl might really keep dwelling on it. That child was so clever, and he liked her very much. Now that the child's mother wanted to express her gratitude, he would accept it!
"Fine, then let's make it clear!"
"Anything is fine. My husband and his wife happen to be home these days and can help with cooking and taking care of the kids!"
Pfft, I've never seen a mother betray her son like this!
Ye Wanying glanced at the scene outside, then stood up: "Aunt Qing, it's getting late, I'll head back now. I'll bring the child over first thing tomorrow morning!"
Chen Yunqing nodded, smiling, clearly very happy.
.........
As Ye Wanying stepped out of the house and walked into the courtyard, she discovered that the two brothers, Gao Ziyue and Gao Zixiu, were hiding outside the main room.
Just how worried are they about letting me have contact with their mother?
Only after Ye Wanying's figure completely disappeared did the two brothers come out from behind and rush into the main room: "Mother, what does that female demon want with you?" Gao Zixiu's eyes were like radar, constantly scanning Chen Yunqing, afraid that Ye Wanying would hurt his mother.
Gao Ziyue then asked, "Mother, how come you are so familiar with that daughter-in-law of the Gao family?"
Why have I never heard my mother mention this before?
Chen Yunqing looked at his son speechlessly: "She-devil? Is your person Yingying?" He was very skeptical.
Forehead...
The two brothers instantly understood that their mother didn't know the true nature of that female demon!
Before either of them could speak, Chen Yunqing said again, "By the way, you two go to the fields to get some vegetables and then go to the mountains to hunt some wild game. Ming Yingying is bringing her child to visit us!"
"Visiting?"
Gao Zixiu almost lost his voice; his voice was noticeably distorted.
Chen Yunqing glanced at her son: "Your mother isn't deaf, don't be so loud! What? Yingying is coming, do you have a problem with that?"
hiss!
Empress Dowager, who dares to object? In our household, you're in charge!
Seeing her two sons standing there like wooden blocks, Chen Yunqing poked their foreheads in annoyance: "What are you still standing there for? Go on!"
Are the two brothers really adopted?
