Chapter 103 Explanation
Sun Ye's face was stiff, and he waved two melon seeds soullessly. It was nothing. This would have to happen sooner or later. It was his own fault for forgetting it.
"leaf?"
Sun Sen came back with a backpack and no extra luggage. He asked:
"When did you come back? Didn't we agree to come find me when you got to the city and come back together? I've been waiting for so long."
When Sun Sen said this, Sun Ye felt a chill on her back. She scratched her scalp and said uncomfortably:
"Brother, I was in a hurry and forgot. I won't do it again next time, I promise!"
Sun Sen looked at Sun Ye with some disbelief, and Sun Ye immediately said sincerely:
"Brother, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to stand you up. I really didn't think about it."
Sun Ye rubbed her fingers together. She had never been so careless before. She was getting worse as she got older.
"Okay, big brother doesn't blame you. Remember it next time." Sun Sen stepped forward and rubbed Sun Ye's head. He hugged Sun Ye, turned around, and walked home together.
Sun Ye straightened his hair immediately, muttering, "Brother, you messed up my hair."
"What hairstyle is not a hairstyle? A high braid is also a hairstyle?"
"I took great pains to comb that!"
“…”
The brother and sister kept talking on the way. Time and distance did not break up the feelings between them, but made them cherish each other more.
"Mom, big brother is back."
Mother Sun stood at the door, a hint of disguised anger on her face. She said in a calm tone, "You're back, so what? Why are you yelling? It's already the day and you still think you're back? Why didn't you come back on New Year's Day?"
Although Sun's mother said this, she was missing her eldest son in her heart. Only Sun Ye touched the tip of his nose uncomfortably.
She was definitely to blame for her eldest brother's late return, so she said, "Mom, isn't my eldest brother back? Haven't you been talking about him these past two days? My ears are almost callused. You've been talking about him for more than three days. Why hasn't my eldest brother come back yet..."
"Yes, boss, why did you come back so late?" Sun's mother asked casually.
It’s over. Sun Ye looked so depressed that he couldn’t put the words into his mother’s mouth. Now it’s happening.
Sun Sen glanced at his little sister, whose eyes were fixed on her, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly before saying, "The school workload is quite hectic, and the homework assigned by the instructor requires me to look up materials in the school library..."
When Sun's mother heard this, her mind stopped working. She just hoped that he had something serious to do. She was worried that he would go out to college and play around, and not be at home.
When Sun Ma turned around, Sun Ye hurriedly bowed to Sun Sen, saying that he had saved her life.
The three of them entered the main room one after another. A brazier had already been lit. Sun Sen put his bag on a chair and picked up a small stool to sit around the fire with Sun Ye.
"Tsk tsk tsk, the weather is so cold that my hands are numb from the cold." As he spoke, his body couldn't help but tremble, in waves.
When Sun's mother saw this, she immediately went to the kitchen to make a bowl of ginger soup for Sun Sen. Sun Ye watched from the side and said:
"Mom really loves you. She even prepared ginger soup for you by the fire as soon as you got back."
Before Sun Sen could say anything, his mother spoke up: "Why, didn't I arrange something for you when you came back? You're still jealous of your elder brother. You're so narrow-minded."
Sun Ye was stunned by what she said. She was jealous? What kind of jealousy was she? Her heart was almost overwhelmed by a bunch of questions.
"Hey? Mom, where are my dad and Linzi? Why can't I see them?" After drinking the hot ginger soup, Sun Sen felt much warmer. He looked around but couldn't see any trace of them.
When Sun Ye and his mother heard this, they looked at each other and no one spoke for a while.
Sun Ye didn't want to speak anymore. She had just apologized at the village entrance. If she came again now, her credibility in her eldest brother's heart would drop. It would be better for her mother to come.
Mother Sun coughed lightly, sat up straighter, and said calmly, "They went to town and should be back soon."
"Oh." Sun Sen nodded to show that he understood. It was the end of the year, so it was not surprising to go to the town to sell some New Year's goods.
This won’t do. If you want to say it, just say it all. Sun Ye kept shouting in his heart. He couldn’t bear it any longer, so he opened his mouth and said casually:
"Brother, actually, Dad and second brother went to the city to sell things."
Sun Sen looked at this and that in disbelief, and couldn't help scratching his ears. He must have been frozen silly to have heard such outrageous things.
He still believed that Sun Lin was going out to sell things, but his father, such an honest and well-behaved man, actually agreed. Not only did he agree, he also went with him to sell things.
This was totally out of the blue, and Sun Sen couldn't believe it at all.
But looking at the extremely serious looks of Sun Ye and his mother, he knew unconsciously that this was true, it was just a fairy tale.
“…”
Sun Sen opened his mouth, but found that no sound came out of his throat.
As if remembering something, he suddenly reacted and turned his head towards Sun Ye. After a moment of calming down, he said, "Ye Zi, this matter also has your contribution. That's why you rushed back home in such a hurry."
Sun Sen was somewhat sad and upset that such a big thing in the family was kept secret from him and he was the only one who didn't know about it.
Sun Ye was afraid that his elder brother would get too obsessed with thinking this way, so he stood up and moved his small stool to sit next to Sun Sen.
When Mother Sun saw that she seemed no longer needed, she went to the kitchen to prepare the meal. She believed that Ye Zi would be able to talk Sen Zi into it.
"Brother, please don't be like this, okay? We've just started. We just finished our first stall yesterday. Today, Dad is worried about you, so he's going with you to check on us."
"We didn't mean to hide this from you. We just thought you'd be back soon. You'll know when you get back."
"I can't just call you, and if I write a letter to let you know, I'm afraid you'll be back before the letter arrives."
“…”
Sun Ye counted on his fingers and explained everything he could clearly, and finally added one more thing:
"Brother, I was the one who started this. I was too anxious and rushed home, forgetting about you."
Sun Sen listened carefully to Sun Ye's analysis. This was really a coincidence. As long as his family didn't do it on purpose, he wouldn't feel too aggrieved or angry.
"Oh, by the way, big brother, I forgot to tell you something, it's also a big deal in our family!"
What! Besides, he only came back a few days late, but why do I feel like I missed everything?
"Tell me what it is. I can bear it." Sun Sen took a deep breath and made sufficient mental preparation.
"Brother, what are you doing? This is a good thing, a good thing for our team, not a bad thing. You look like this, I don't know if I should continue."
"Ye Zi, how can I not say it? Just say it."
"That's right, the brigade is going to divide the land. The specific regulations haven't been released yet, but it should be ready before the spring plowing."
"Divide the land? How much can our family get? How should we divide it..."
Sun Sen threw a series of questions at him. Sun Ye spread his hands and said, "I don't know yet. We are still measuring the land these days, but it will be done soon."
Sun Ye said somewhat uncertainly that only the brigade cadres would know the progress of this issue.
"I feel like I've missed a lot." Sun Sen leaned back on the table, complaining weakly.
"I didn't miss much. At most, I just got some firsthand information. Big brother, if you really regret it, how about you and second brother go to the town tomorrow to experience it together?"
Sun Ye thought that this was a very good idea. It could not only get help for his second brother, but also relieve his eldest brother's regret. It was the best of both worlds.
"That's for sure!" Sun Sen agreed without hesitation. As for his second brother's opinion, it didn't matter. The second brother would get the most benefit, and he would be satisfied.
Sun Ye breathed a sigh of relief. These two matters could finally come to an end! The solution was perfect, all thanks to her eloquence.
It seems that her ability to express herself in words is quite good, and she is not taciturn at all. It's just that she has not been needed before.
Not long after, Dad Sun and Sun Lin came back empty-handed, their faces filled with the joy of a good harvest. It seemed that today's results were good.
It’s really good. Sun’s mother fried a lot more this morning. The melon seeds and dried goods at home are almost sold out. It seems that there will definitely not be enough to sell tomorrow.
Mom, why don’t you go pick some melon seeds tonight?”
Everyone in the room was very happy! Looking at the pile of money on the table, this was indeed more practical than working in the fields, though it was risky.
There are many people selling things on the street, but there are no duplicates. However, when people see the benefits and turn around, the competitiveness will be quite fierce.
"Where can we collect it? Almost everyone in the team has rested." Mother Sun shook her head. It was a bit late at this time.
"Well, why don't we go to Third Aunt's house? It's not far away anyway."
I collect the money from other people and I also collect the money from my third aunt’s family. Why not collect the money from my third aunt’s family?
"That's equivalent to telling the people in the old house, and I have to tell them first." Dad Sun smacked his lips and did this silently. He felt a little guilty when he saw his mother.
"The sooner the better, Xuejun, let's go to the old house."
Mother Sun did what she said, patted the wrinkles on her clothes, and immediately prepared to leave for the old house.
Dad Sun wiped his face and slowly stood up. This could not be concealed. It was better to know it from his own mouth than from others.
There were only three siblings left at home in the Sun family. The three of them stared at each other. Sun Ye couldn't stand it anymore, so he was the first to look away and used a pair of tongs to stir the charcoal ash in the brazier.
"Of course, Linzi, you're even more patient than my brother."
"Brother, please speak properly, you are so sarcastic!"
"Why didn't I speak properly? I was praising you."
The atmosphere was a bit tense, and Sun Ye was sitting in the middle, and it would be inappropriate for him to move to any side.
She knew that her eldest brother would definitely attack her second brother. This was a tacit understanding they had since childhood, and the three of them knew almost everything about each other's reactions.
Sun Lin's unsurprised look proved his guess. The two brothers looked at each other and laughed inexplicably.
Sun Ye rolled his eyes silently in the middle. It was childish and nonsensical!
