Chapter 236 Lost



Chapter 236 Lost

Ye Sanxing nimbly jumped to the side to avoid the attack of firewood, held on to the door frame to steady his body, and saw that Jin Fenglian was still going to fight, and said hurriedly,

"Oh my, how come you've shown your true colors after just a few days of being gentle?"

"Just now, my accountant called me to his office on the way. He called me beforehand and said he had just landed from the provincial capital and would be home in the afternoon."

Jin Fenglian was startled at first, dropped the tongs in her hand, and rushed to Ye Sanxing like a whirlwind, asking excitedly,

"What's up? Lin's back?"

"Of course, hurry up and clean up the house. When the sun comes out, dry the quilts and other things in the sun. I'll go raise the kang in the old house first."

Ye Sanxing didn't even bother to eat, and ran to Ye Dajun's house to light the kang.

Ever since Ye Lin and his group left, there were few people living in the house, and it would be a waste to keep it burning, so they stopped the kang. Now there is no warmth in the house.

"Oh my god! Xiuhong, hurry up and chop the meat and make dumplings, then stew the bird's nest we just put in the cupboard. Remember to add some jujubes!"

"Go get another bowl of dough, this pot of steamed buns won't be enough!"

Golden Phoenix ran to the kitchen yelling,

While asking her daughter to cook, she was rummaging through the drawers looking for black tea, coffee, and sugar cubes. No one at home was used to drinking these. Since Ye Lin left, these fancy bottles and jars had been stuffed deep into the cupboard by Jin Fenglian, so it would be a bit troublesome to find them now.

Ye Ling held the bowl and blinked, her watery eyes gleaming with anticipation.

"Third Grandma, is my grandma back?"

Jin Fenglian was busy wiping the dust off the black tea can. It had only been a few days since it was put in the cabinet, and there was still a layer of dust on it. She was so busy that she didn't even have time to turn her head and answered casually,

"Yes, yes, your grandma's evil one, ah no, your grandma's this one is good, oh, anyway, she's back."

"Great! Wow, I'm going to go find Mom!"

"Hey! Why did you run away again? This child, Xiuhong, stop busying yourself and send Xiaoling to the educated youth station."

Jin Fenglian chased out with two tea cans in her arms, and Ye Ling ran to the gate.

Ever since Ye Ling had an accident at her doorstep last time, the Ye family has been following her wherever she goes.

Ye Xiuhong chased Ye Ling all the way, and when they arrived at the educated youth site, Ye Xiuhong could no longer walk, so she waved to Ye Ling to go in first, and she had to sit on the stool at the entrance of the educated youth site to catch her breath.

Recently, several educated youth whose families had connections were transferred back to the city through various relationships. A bed became vacant in the women's dormitory, so Bai Wei moved out of Ye Sanxing's house and moved back to the educated youth center.

Zhou Jie and Bai Wei sat on the kang together to pack clothes.

On one side are the clothes Bai Wei will wear in the next few days, and on the other side are the Hong Kong goods that Ye Yang brought to Bai Wei. Bai Wei plans to leave them all to Zhou Jie.

When she thought about Bai Wei leaving, Zhou Jie was in no mood to appreciate any beautiful clothes. She tugged at her clothes twice and said gloomily,

"Xiao Wei, if you leave, there will be no one left in Xiahe Village to talk to me, and I don't know when I can leave."

"You've been studying very well recently, haven't you? As long as you don't slack off, you'll definitely have no problem with the college entrance exam. We'll definitely meet in Shanghai in the fall."

After Bai Wei experienced her daughter's illness, was labeled as one of the "five black categories" and sent to reform school, and learned that her father had passed away,

She seemed to have grown up a lot. She no longer looked like the arrogant young lady who wore a Western dress many years ago. Now Bai Wei only had a gentle demeanor.

Her personality is no longer as radical as before. She speaks softly and acts with less sharpness.

The sunlight streamed through the window onto the ends of her soft hair, revealing a sense of tranquility and peace.

Zhou Jie always felt that it was unreal to see her like this. The loving mother in front of her, who exuded maternal radiance from head to toe, was far different from the eldest daughter Bai Wei she knew before.

It's like being possessed by another body.

Zhou Jie gradually stopped folding clothes and tilted her head to observe Bai Wei's mood. She asked her worriedly,

"Xiao Wei, have you still not gotten over your uncle's incident?"

"What Auntie said makes sense. You've been to the cowshed before. If you've been there for more than ten years, you'd be worn out. Uncle is enjoying his bliss in heaven. It doesn't matter if we burn more incense and paper money for him."

Bai Wei lowered her head, smiled self-deprecatingly, and shook her head slightly. After a mental struggle, she told Zhou Jie what was in her heart.

"No, Xiaojie, I know my father is lucky to have passed away, and I am also lucky."

"I just feel like I don't have the capital to be willful anymore. I used to be the eldest daughter of the Bai family, but now I have nothing. Even my father is gone. I have no one to lean on anymore."

At the end, Bai Wei could no longer hold back, she covered her face and wailed in pain, a rasping sound came from her throat, and her tears soaked the clothes they had just folded.

She was crying for her deceased father, and also crying for herself who no longer had her father's protection.

"Don't cry, Uncle Bai must be so sad in heaven. Come, let me wipe it for you."

Zhou Jie was a straight woman who was not good at comforting others. She just kept rubbing Bai Wei's eye sockets with a rough cloth, using the same force as rubbing clothes. Bai Wei's eyes were not swollen from crying yet, but they were swollen from being rubbed by her.

The straight girl Zhou Jie wiped it for a long time and finally came up with a word of comfort.

"Xiao Wei, don't you have a capitalist uncle? Your uncle loves you so much, he's almost like your dad."

Bai Wei, who was originally sobbing quietly, cried even louder after being comforted by her. Tears flowed like a dam bursting, and even a rough cloth covered her face could not stop.

Bai Wei seemed to be venting her emotions, like a lost child who couldn't find her parents. She cried out in fear and collapse, "My uncle doesn't want me anymore! He said he doesn't know me, and he won't even call me!"

Ye Ling skipped into the educated youth site, wanting to tell her mother that her grandmother had finally returned. As soon as she placed her little hand on the wooden door, she was frightened by the howling that broke out from the house and shrank back.
