That works too.
But this is too sudden.
He Jing blinked blankly, choosing not to delve into it further.
...
He Jing brought He Sui some snacks, and He Sui was overjoyed. He sat on the sofa and stuffed the snacks into his mouth one by one, then said unhappily, "He Jing, haven't you bought me beef jerky in a long time?"
He Jing retorted, "Fourth Brother, weren't you feeling hot-tempered?"
This story begins a week ago. One day, He Jing got home early from school and fried lotus root sandwiches and radish balls, intending to store them in the refrigerator for her parents to eat with noodles.
Mr. and Mrs. He knew that their family was no longer as poor as before, but they still couldn't change their habit of saving money. Every morning before going to work, they would make noodles for themselves. He Jing felt that they ate too blandly, so she made them specially.
This frying was a disaster. The food she fried smelled so good that it couldn't stop He Sui's rat-like nose. When He Sui rode his little pink donkey back in the middle of the night and smelled the aroma, he ate all the lotus root sandwiches and radish balls that were on the winnowing basket.
This guy was so pleased with himself, thinking that He Jing knew he was studying hard and had specially cooked for him. In order not to waste He Jing's good intentions, he really didn't leave a single piece.
He Ning, who was with him, voluntarily gave up fried and spicy food to maintain his fit physique, and didn't eat a single bite, so...
The next day, He Sui gloriously developed a fever.
Once the fire started, it wouldn't go down. Besides pimples all over my forehead, I also developed ulcers in several places around my mouth.
His deep red gums were swollen like steamed buns, and he even had to cover his mouth to eat because of the pain. He couldn't even bite into a radish, and he was severely scolded by his father.
He also received merciless ridicule from his youngest brother, He Xiaoguo.
Fourth brother, did you steal some lamp oil?
How could this happen without stealing lamp oil?
He Zhou glanced at him and couldn't help but say sarcastically, "Does a rat have a bigger appetite than him?"
He Sui slammed his fist on the table and stood up angrily: "Third Brother, stop making personal attacks."
In his excitement, he accidentally bit his tongue again.
Very well, it's completely ruined.
He Sui ate only plain porridge for a week, and after finishing each bowl, he also took vitamin B2 and sprayed watermelon frost on his skin. Only then did the rampant growth of the ulcers subside a little.
He Jing said, "Fourth Brother, you can't eat beef jerky if you have a sore throat. I'll buy you a box after your college entrance exam."
He Sui's unhappiness vanished instantly, and he happily continued eating his snacks.
Hearing the noise, Mother He came out of her room in her pajamas. Seeing this, she asked, "Jingjing, you're back. Where's your sixth brother?"
"They've gone back to their room and should be taking a shower now."
He Chen's room has a bathroom.
So, Mother He sat down on the sofa, telling He Sui to eat fewer snacks to avoid indigestion, while asking He Jing about the dinner party and whether she had a good time.
He Jing replied with a bright smile, "I'm very happy. There are so many people at the banquet. Sixth Brother was a bit nervous since it was his first time there, but I'm fine..."
A short while later, He Chen suddenly opened the door, stood in the doorway drying his wet hair, and said, "Mom, He Jing has to go to school tomorrow. Let her go to sleep. If there's anything you want to know, I'll tell you."
Mother He immediately stood up from the sofa and followed up on He Chen's words, saying, "Okay, then Jingjing, you should go take a shower first. It's almost eleven o'clock."
He Jing glanced at He Chen in surprise, but still obediently went.
He Sui ate a few snacks, and when he saw He Jing was about to go back to her room, he called out "Hey, hey" twice and followed her in. He had so many classes during the day, and this was the only time he could see her. He hadn't even told her what had happened at school yet.
