Chapter 38 Chapter 38

Is Jia Yulin a good person?

Jia Guoye wanted to say something,

but he didn't say it in the end. He thought that although Jia Yulin was not a simple person, she would not hurt Xiaorui. So there was no need to let Xiaorui know some things.

After having her calf cut by straw while working in the fields and having her face covered with ash from burning firewood, Jia Yourui naturally didn't dare to "help" Jia Guoye again.

But she was so idle, and seeing Jia Guoye busying around while she could only wash vegetables and cut everything for him, Jia Yourui felt a little guilty.

Moreover, it was quite boring for her to stay at home alone for the whole afternoon.

Jia Yourui was originally a very clingy person. She was raised by her parents and siblings since she was a child. She had never experienced loneliness. She would be a little follower whenever she had the chance. She liked to stick to her family members who spoiled her and acted coquettishly.

But she was so cute that her parents, brothers and sisters loved her like the apple of their eyes and liked to have her stick close to them.

Later, she was only willing to stay alone in a room.

Those malicious eyes, contemptuous and sarcastic rumors, and fierce curses... were simply not something that Jia Yourui, who was extremely simple-minded, could bear.

How could she, who had been spoiled and carefree since she was a child, bear all this?

Jia Yourui was forced to hide in a corner. She was terrified and looked at all this terrible and absurd thing like a frightened bird. Her big eyes, like glass beads, were always wet most of the time.

She spent every day in anxiety and was afraid of seeing people.

Jia Yourui was extremely fragile, and even the comfort of her family was useless. She was only willing to hide in her room and wanted to stay away from everything. Her life was like a walking corpse.

...

Jia Kaiqian was afraid that his daughter would either die or go crazy one day.

After the two finished their meal, Jia Guoye was cleaning up the dishes, and Jia Yourui sat drinking water, holding a cup that blocked half of her face.

Jia Yourui thought for a moment, and she said, "I'll bring you some water this afternoon." She just remembered the last time the little sister brought a kettle of water to her family.

Jia Guoye was holding the bowl and chopsticks, and his steps stopped when he was about to turn around.

"The water I brought is enough to drink."

He said gently in a negotiating tone, "How about you rest at home?"

Jia Yourui shook her head.

"It's a whole afternoon, I don't want to rest that long."

She looked coquettish, and her tone was a little aggrieved.

"Okay." Jia Guoye nodded slightly: "You can come."

...

Jia Guoye became more and more certain that Xiaorui had come out of the haze.

He was very happy.

Jia Kaiqian drank too much, and it was almost noon when he got up from the bed in a daze.

He staggered into the yard, where Lin Fei was drying potato chips. She didn't even look up when she heard him coming.

Jia Kaiqian absentmindedly wandered around the yard, and finally walked to Lin Fei's side.

Lin Fei squatted, deftly arranging the cooked and cut potato chips on the screen, completely ignoring him.

Jia Kaiqian put his hands on his hips, pretending to look around casually.

...

Finally, Jia Kaiqian couldn't hold on any longer.

"Where's Ruirui?" He pretended to be nonchalant and asked, "Didn't you let her stay at home for a few more days?"

He wondered why Ruirui was not at home? She finally came home, and the old woman must be reluctant to let her go.

"She stayed."

Lin Fei glanced at him and said unhappily, "Rui Rui refused to stay, so she left."

She said lightly, "Xiao Bao was abandoned by her father, how could she dare to stay at home any longer?"

Jia Kaiqian's face changed suddenly.

He moved closer to Lin Fei, tilted his head, and said excitedly, "Did she really leave?"

Lin Fei said, "Didn't you look around just now? Did you see anyone? Why are you asking?"

Lin Fei picked up the screen full of potato chips and put it in the sun to dry.

Jia Kaiqian was really regretful and secretly cursed himself for being so arrogant yesterday.

He thought, his daughter was finally willing to come home to celebrate his birthday, but he hurt her heart again.

Jia Kaiqian felt so upset and heartbroken that he wanted to rush to the village on the other side of the river.

Thinking of this, Jia Kaiqian didn't even bother to wash up. He rushed out the door anxiously.

Fortunately, Lin Fei was quick and grabbed his arm.

"You didn't even wash your face. Where are you going in such a hurry?" she asked.

Jia Kaiqian said, "I have to explain to Ruirui that I was a little drunk yesterday."

His mind was still hazy, and he murmured, "I have to find Ruirui. I did something wrong and I have to apologize to her. This child is soft at heart and I can't hurt her."

Lin Fei didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She just wanted to be weird with the old man. Who told him to ignore his daughter yesterday? Ruirui was about to cry.

But she also forgot how much Jia Kaiqian cherished Ruirui and his stubborn temper.

Look, he was hungover and was about to run out like a ghost.

Lin Fei pulled his hand and walked back, saying, "Don't go."

Jia Kaiqian was pulled back and asked in confusion, "Why are you holding me back? Let me go..."

"Ruirui will be back soon." Lin Fei couldn't move him, and seeing his anxious look, she interrupted him with a smile.

She told him the reason why she asked Xiaorui to stay at home for a few days, but Xiaorui said she wanted to go back and didn't want to cause trouble for the family.

Jia Kaiqian felt better at this, but he was still a little worried and asked Lin Fei seriously: "Ruirui really doesn't blame me, right?"

Lin Fei said: "Don't worry, do you think your daughter is as childish as you?"

"At this age, you still have a bad face in front of your daughter. I really don't want to say anything to you, an old man."

Jia Kaiqian touched his forehead with an annoyed expression, and his hand was touching something in his pocket.

Lin Fei kicked him lightly and said, "Stop smoking, go get some water and wash yourself."

She pinched her nose and said with a smile, "You smell like alcohol, and you want to go out without worrying about suffocating Xiao Rui."

Jia Kaiqian still took out his cigarette box and lit it, saying softly, "Wait, my head is still a little bloated, I'll smoke a cigarette to slow down."

Lin Fei looked at him with disdain, but turned around to prepare some clothes for him and get some hot water.

...

Here, the two sisters Jia Yulin and Jia Yumin stood in a corner, talking quietly beside each other.

"Are you serious? You saw Jia Yourui delivering a letter to Jia Quanhui." Jia Yulin said in astonishment: "You also saw Jia Yourui holding Jia Quanhui's hand?"

Jia Yumin shook her head: "No."

?

Jia Yulin frowned in confusion: "Didn't you just say that you saw them holding hands by the river?"

Jia Yumin said reluctantly: "It wasn't Jia Yourui who pulled Brother Quanhui, it was Brother Quanhui who took the initiative to pull Jia Yourui."

Although Jia Yumin had always told herself that it was Jia Yourui who seduced Jia Quanhui, she had to admit that it was Brother Quanhui who took the initiative that time, but

Jia Yourui didn't refuse.

Oh, she thought, maybe Jia Yourui did it on purpose, to seduce Quan Huige to hold her hand.

Jia Yulin said speechlessly, "You are just an honest child. It doesn't matter who takes the initiative. It is the most immoral for two people to hold hands."

She sighed repeatedly, "Oh, it seems that I have wronged you. It turns out that they really have some dirty relationship."

"He is not honest even after becoming a daughter-in-law. He is really committing a sin by going out, oh."

"Really? Sister, I didn't say anything nonsense."

Jia Yumin was very happy to finally prove her innocence in front of her sister.

However, she immediately said, "But sister, you must not tell this to anyone else, it will ruin Brother Quanhui's reputation."

......

"Sister?"

"Sister?"

Seeing Jia Yulin in a daze, Jia Yumin pushed her twice, "Sister, did you hear me?"

"Oh."

Jia Yulin came back to her senses, touched her sister's head, smiled kindly, and said, "Don't worry, how could sister not listen to you."

Jia Yumin smiled with satisfaction and said affectionately, "Sister, you are so nice."

It's so nice to be able to talk to her sister in confidence like this. She thought, if only her sister could live at home forever.

Jia Yulin let her sister hold her arm and began to think about it in her heart.
