Chapter 19 Aunt's Trouble



Zheng Xinyi nodded to Xinwei, and he pushed the door open and left, taking the fire stick from Cuihua's hand: "Mom, let me do it!"

"Your aunt put too much wood in here, and there's no ventilation in here." Cuihua, who was choked by the smoke and crying, rubbed her eyes and said with a frown.

"Mom, you go and rest! I can do it myself." Xinwei said to Cuihua with concern.

"Sister, how do you pronounce this word?" Zheng Xinyue took the textbook and pointed to the words she didn't know.

"Yan, the Yan of reproduction." Zheng Xinyi looked up and blurted out.

Zheng Xinyue nodded slightly, then closed the textbook and breathed a sigh of relief. Zheng Xinyi glanced at her and asked, "Have you finished your homework?"

"Yeah." Zheng Xinyue said as she packed her books.

Zheng Xinyi was confused about her memories of this aunt, but she was also very curious. She leaned towards Zheng Xinyue and said, "Xinyue, I see that our aunt is not young anymore. Has she never married?"

Zheng Xinyue glanced at Zheng Xinyi, but then she realized that she was stupid at that time, so she might not remember this story.

He put down the book in his hand, sat down next to her, and talked to her with interest: "My aunt was married before, and she married into a wealthy family. But after she got married, she was lazy and idle all day long. After being married for more than half a year, she didn't give birth to a child. After a long time, her mother-in-law couldn't stand it anymore and often scolded her. This made the relationship between them increasingly strained."

"Oh! So she was repaired in the end." After listening to the first half, Zheng Xinyi had already guessed the ending.

Zheng Xinyue took a sip of water and continued, "But that man was quite affectionate towards my aunt. I heard from my dad that when my aunt was divorced, that man gave her a large sum of money."

No wonder she could afford such good thin-skinned big melon seeds, Zheng Xinyi thought.

"Sister, what are you thinking about?" Zheng Xinyue asked curiously when she saw that she didn't say anything else.

"I was thinking that she is doing nothing now and just spending the little money she has. But even if the man gives her more money, there will always be a day when it is all spent. What will she do then?" Zheng Xinyi began to worry about her future life.

"Sister, she treated you so harshly before, why are you still thinking about her?" Zheng Xinyue asked.

"Okay, we have to go to school tomorrow. Go to bed early." While speaking, Zheng Xinyi had already started to take off her shoes, get on the kang and spread the quilt.

"Sister, you spread the quilt, I'll go get some water for washing feet, and then we'll soak our feet in the same basin." Zheng Xinyue said coquettishly.

When I opened the door, I bumped into the dusty Zheng Xinwei. I brushed the dust off his shoulders and said, "Brother, you just finished heating the kang?"

"Yes, I have to wash my face first." After the words fell, Zheng Xinyue tactfully scooped a bucket of water from the water tank and poured it into the washbasin.

Zheng Xinwei rolled up his sleeves and began to wash the dust off his face.

Zheng Xinyue prepared the water for washing feet, said hello to her brother, then went into the house and said to Zheng Xinyi, who had already spread the quilt, "Sister, come here quickly, the water is hot."

Zheng Xinyi had just taken off her shoes and socks when she heard a clanging sound next to her. The two sisters looked at each other. Zheng Xinyue looked at her as if to ignore her and gestured for her to quickly take off her shoes and wash her feet. But the painful screams that followed made them feel that something was wrong, so they quickly put on their shoes and socks and rushed out of the room.
