Chapter 107: Being a child is a blessing!
Tang Yuanyuan couldn't sleep, so he got up at daybreak.
She saw the book "Lillian's Colorful World" recommended by her sister on the desk.
The cover shows a beautiful woman in a dress. She is sitting on an ordinary stool with a sewing machine in front of her. The sky is blue with a gorgeous rainbow hanging in it.
If you look closely, you can see a sleeping puppy lying at the woman's feet. It's very cute.
Tang Yuanyuan picked up the book, tiptoed to the living room, and sat on the sofa near the window.
She didn't turn on the light, but opened the book in her hand in the faint light from the window.
Tang Xueli's biological clock is very stable and she wakes up before six o'clock.
After washing up, she went to the kitchen to cook some rice and then went out for a run.
Seeing that my elder sister was reading seriously, I didn't go to say hello to her.
Tang Yuanyuan was indeed watching very seriously, and completely entered into a flow state. She didn't hear any movement in the kitchen or the sound of the door opening and closing.
It was not until Tang Shuangshuang came running over and hugged her neck that she came back to her senses from the story in the book.
"What book is it? You are reading it so seriously." Tang Shuangshuang leaned over to look at the cover.
"Lillian's Colorful World", she had seen this book on the desk before, and Xue Li seemed to have read it several times.
"Xue Li recommended it to me." Tang Yuanyuan glanced out the window. It was already bright outside. "Are you in time for work?"
"I'll ask my master for leave later. I won't go today." Tang Shuangshuang stood and did a few morning stretches. "My eldest sister rarely comes back. I can't bear to go to work."
Although Xue Li said that she would let her elder sister live here forever, she always felt that it was just talk, so she didn't take it seriously.
"How can that be possible? It's irresponsible to ask for leave without permission."
Tang Yuanyuan attaches great importance to work. Regardless of gender, the most important thing for a person is work.
It is impossible to survive without a job and income.
"How could I ask for leave without permission? This is a reasonable request." Tang Shuangshuang shook her ankles and wrists. These were some simple movements Xue Li taught her to wake up her sleeping body.
While exercising, she said: "I usually work very hard, go to work early and come back late. If I occasionally take a day off, no one will say anything."
"There's no need to take leave just for me." Tang Yuanyuan especially didn't want his return to affect his family's normal life rhythm.
She is thoughtful and considers other people's situations and feelings too much, and is overly sensitive.
"It's normal to ask for leave just for my elder sister!" Tang Shuangshuang would never listen to her elder sister. "Mom won't go to the stall today. She plans to have a good rest for a day. Let's go to the park to play? We can go boating and see flowers. I heard that the flowers in the park are very beautiful."
"Mom isn't going to the stall anymore?..." Tang Yuanyuan frowned, "Don't do this, it will burden me."
Tang Shuangshuang actually didn’t quite understand why her elder sister felt burdened by this.
How can it be a burden for the whole family to have fun? What a wonderful thing!
"Where's Xueli?" Tang Yuanyuan asked.
Tang Shuangshuang finished her morning exercise, wiped the sweat off her forehead and neck with a towel, and sat down on the sofa. "Xue Li should have gone for a run. She runs every day. She should be back by now."
There was a noise coming from the kitchen, and Tang Yuanyuan stood up and said, "I'll go help Mom make breakfast."
"No need!" Tang Shuangshuang grabbed her elder sister's wrist. "Xue Li will cook the millet porridge before she goes out. Mom will heat up the steamed buns and boil an egg, and we will be able to eat soon."
Tang Yuanyuan sat back on the sofa, feeling a little uncomfortable.
"I'm going to wash my face and brush my teeth. You take your time." Tang Shuangshuang poured a glass of warm water for her elder sister and then went to the bathroom.
Tang Yuanyuan stared at the enamel pot in front of him, a little absent-minded.
It had been a long, long time since anyone had poured water for her.
A month ago, she caught a bad cold. The old factory manager was afraid that she would infect her son with the cold, so he made her live in the warehouse by herself and didn't allow her to go out for a walk.
Her fever was so high at night that she had to pour herself some water to drink after taking the antipyretic medicine.
The water in the thermos had already gone cold, but she could only swallow large tablets of antipyretic medicine with cold water.
My throat was already very sore, and it became even more uncomfortable after swallowing the pills. My body, which was cold due to the high fever, was trembling constantly due to the stimulation of the cold water, and wrapping myself in a quilt did not help.
I waited patiently for the medicine to take effect, and then I felt a little better.
Every time I get sick or injured, it's probably a similar situation.
No one cares, no one takes care.
The warmth I feel at my parents' home and at my husband's home is so different from one day to the next.
Tang Yuanyuan stroked the smooth cover of the book and stared at the beautiful woman on the cover. A certain heartstring was gently lifted, and then pressed heavily by her.
Turn the page and continue reading.
When Tang Xueli came back from running, it was just time for breakfast.
The mother and daughter sat around the table. Tang Yuanyuan drank a mouthful of the soft, sweet millet porridge and said, "Mom, I'll go to Dongda Market with you later. I'll chat with you in the morning and I'll go back in the afternoon."
Tang Shuangshuang spoke the fastest, "No! Absolutely not! Big sister, you have to keep your word. You made a promise with me yesterday that you will not change it for a hundred years."
Tang Yuanyuan smiled bitterly and said, "You already have two younger sisters, why are you still acting like a child?"
"I am a child, and I am happy as a child!" Tang Shuangshuang said confidently, "Besides, adults can't go back on their words. Xueli, right?"
Tang Xueli nodded: "Yes."
Tang Shuangshuang raised her eyebrows proudly: "Look, Xueli agrees with me!"
"Big sister, wait until you finish reading the book before making a decision." Tang Xueli advised her: "Second sister wants to go boating in the park. She has been thinking about it all summer. It's rare for everyone in our family to be together. Let's go and have fun for a day."
"..." Tang Yuanyuan looked at everyone and felt really embarrassed.
Tang Xueli added: "If you don't go, my second sister will be very disappointed, and my mother and I will be disappointed too."
The lethality of this sentence was like a hydrogen bomb, especially for Tang Yuanyuan. After hearing this sentence, it was almost impossible for her to refuse her sisters' proposal.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Tang Yuanyuan compromised helplessly.
"Yeah, that's great!" Tang Shuangshuang made a lot of plans: "Let's all wear our most beautiful clothes. There are people taking pictures at the entrance of the park. Let's take a group photo of mother and daughter! Let's go to Limin Hotel for lunch. I'll treat you. I'm going to be the guest today. Hehehe, in the afternoon, in the afternoon..."
"Let's go to the bookstore and have a look?" Tang Xueli followed up on Tang Shuangshuang's words and made a suggestion.
"Bookstore..." Tang Shuangshuang thought for a moment, "Bookstore is not bad. There are a few books that Master An has been asking me to read. I don't like reading, so I keep putting it off. Today is a good time to go buy some books!"
Xia Jinhua said: "I also want to buy some books to read."
After the day's activities were planned, Tang Shuangshuang took a look at Tang Yuanyuan's clothes and said bluntly, "Sister, you are dressed too formally. You and Xueli are about the same height and weight. You can pick a skirt from Xueli!"
"No need." Tang Yuanyuan said immediately: "I feel uncomfortable wearing a skirt, I feel more comfortable wearing this."
