Chapter 83 Chapter 83
Jia Kaiqian's home.
The food is ready and warming in the pot. The table is set with dishes and chopsticks. Jia Mingliang is at school. Jia Mingyu is washing radishes with his mother in the yard. Jia Kaiqian and Lin Fei are in the house. Lin Fei asks Jia Kaiqian to help take down the unused basket on the top of the cabinet to see if it has been gnawed by mice.
......It is already lunch time. The family is waiting for Jia Youkai and Chen Bingwen to come back from the town before they start eating.
In the morning, Chen Bingwen went to the town post office accompanied by Jia Youkai and mailed a letter to his family.
Because Chen Bingwen is a college student, has a good conversational temperament, and teaches with clarity and care, his daughter is very interested in learning from him. Jia Youkai now has a particularly good impression of Chen Bingwen. He even took time out of his busy schedule to personally ride his bicycle to take him to the post office to mail a letter, and asked if he was hungry and whether he wanted to have a good meal in town.
Chen Bingwen smiled and refused, saying that it would not be a waste, and that his family should be waiting for them to come home for dinner, so they should hurry back.
Jia Youkai did not force him and drove Chen Bingwen back to the village.
...
When they were almost at the village, Chen Bingwen pointed at the river and said, "Is that the village where your sister lives now?"
Jia Youkai took a look and said, "Yes, just cross the river. How did you know?"
Chen Bingwen said, "Mingyu told me."
Jia Youkai looked up at the village on the other side of the river. He thought of Xiaorui, and his mouth naturally rose. He thought, "What is Xiaorui doing now?"
Seeing the smoke rising from the kitchen, "I guess she is preparing food." Chen Bingwen said casually.
Jia Youkai's face immediately fell. Xiaorui prepared food for Jia Guoye? It's really unreasonable!
Because of a simple sentence, Jia Youkai's mind has already associated poor Xiao Rui with the villain Jia Guoye's bullying. He imagined that Jia Guoye took advantage of the fact that no one was around to bully Xiao Rui, and he immediately became angry. "Impossible, if Jia Guoye dares to let Xiao Rui serve him, I will break his other leg." Chen Bingwen did
n't expect that his words would cause such a big reaction in Jia Youkai. Although he was thinking about how to smooth things over, he also keenly caught a piece of information - Jia Guoye had a lame leg.
He hid it so well that Chen Bingwen didn't notice it when he saw him last time.
"It's my fault for being so dumb." Chen Bingwen smiled and showed goodwill to Jia Youkai.
He was secretly surprised that the Jia family in the village had spoiled Jia Yourui to such an extent that she was "never touched by women".
...
Three days had passed in the two weeks of preparation, and Jia Yourui's learning progress had stagnated.
Jia Yourui was so worried that her small face became even more haggard and thinner.
Although she didn't have the intention to pass the exam, it was always sad to see the opportunity to study slip away from her eyes. Jia Yourui spent the past few days reading materials without paying attention to time. She often didn't even take time to eat or sleep, and just lowered her head to concentrate on reading the study materials.
But after reading for several hours, she could hardly understand anything, because without a guide, she still didn't understand what she shouldn't understand. It was useless to just read, and she had already forgotten many knowledge points. The more she read, the more anxious she became. If she didn't read, she would be even more uncertain. She couldn't even sleep well at night.
Jia Guoye saw it and felt worried.
He felt sorry for her being too tired, but he couldn't read a word, so he could only worry. He couldn't help Xiaorui at all, so he felt guilty.
Jia Yourui had a hard time studying. Although she didn't tell Jia Guoye about her depression and confusion, he was considerate and knew that she was frustrated.
He didn't have this ability himself, so he could only ask for help from others.
…
Jia Mingzhang took Jia Guoye to the county town, to the county No. 5 Middle School to visit his sister and nephew.
Xiaojun was a boarding student and went home once a week. Jia Xihua would go to the county to see her son every Wednesday, bringing delicious food and meat, fearing that her son did not eat well in school. Sometimes she would also bring some clothes for Xiaojun, and told her son to focus on studying and to tell her if he needed anything in life.
Jia Xihua was walking to school with a cloth bag on her back. She saw her brother at the gate of the middle school. She was about to say hello, but before she could say anything, she was stunned. She was attracted by Jia Guoye next to Jia Mingzhang.
When she got married, Jia Guoye was still young. Jia Guoye lived in a remote place, and Jia Xihua never saw Jia Guoye when she went back to her parents' home during the holidays.
She had heard about him being burned by fire, and she had sent a basket of eggs to him, but this was the first time she saw Jia Guoye's disfigurement so clearly, and she couldn't help but be a little shocked.
Jia Xihua thought: How could he be burned so badly?
Coming back to her senses, she calmed down her expression, smiled and walked over.
Jia Xihua: "Brother, why are you here?"
"Are you Guoye? You've grown so tall."
"Aunt Xihua." Jia Guoye greeted politely.
Jia Mingzhang said, "I have something to tell you. It's not time for Xiaojun to leave school yet, right?"
"Not yet." Jia Xihua glanced at the school, turned around, and said with a smile on her face, "Soon, he knows I will wait for him here for lunch."
Jia Mingzhang put his hands on his sister's shoulders and pushed her to the corner, "Come on, come on, brother wants to tell you something."
He glanced at Jia Guoye, and the boy also looked at him intently. Jia Mingzhang couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He was using him as a lifeline!
Jia Xihua didn't understand what was going on, and was pushed to the corner outside the school wall by her brother with a puzzled look on her face.
...
"No!"
After hearing what her brother said, Jia Xihua refused without thinking.
