223: My little sister is his support and shield
Yu Jiahui greeted with a smile:
"Come and eat together, we just started eating."
Jia Song put down his oblate enamel rice bowl. On the lid of the bowl were two fist-sized multi-grain steamed buns and a small handful of pickled vegetable shreds.
When I opened the lid, there was a full jar of vegetable soup underneath. In the soup, I could see seaweed and some things that looked like frangipani, but there was not a drop of oil at all.
Even Yu Erye frowned when he saw this meal.
But when I think about it, I couldn’t even have this kind of meal at Li Dasong’s house before. Now that I’ve lived a good life with my parents for a few days, my taste has naturally become more picky.
Xu Ying took a soft cornmeal pancake and handed it to Jia Song:
"Come on, eat as much as you can."
"Then I'm welcome."
Jia Song took it in his hand and took a bite without any hesitation. It was obvious that he was already a habitual eater.
Yu Jiahui, Xu Ying, and Yu Xiaoye knew that Jia Song came over early in the morning with a bowl of rice, and that something must have happened, so they all stared at him, waiting for him to speak.
But Jia Song was busy with his work, eating a bite of bread and a bite of vegetables, and he was so busy that he had no time to eat.
Forget it, I won’t ask anymore. I’ll tell you after he finishes eating.
The three of them had no choice but to continue eating.
He waited until Jia Song was almost done with his work before suddenly speaking:
"Yu Xiaoye, pack your things and go to the studio in three days to prepare for rehearsal."
Yu Jiahui choked on a mouthful of porridge and almost dropped his bowl.
"Three days? So fast?" Xu Ying asked in surprise.
"Three days isn't fast. Pack your luggage these two days. I'll take you to the field office in three days. We'll arrange a dormitory for you there, and you can just stay there."
Yu Erye was a little slow to react before he understood that his younger sister was going to move out of the house.
He heard the broadcast yesterday and only knew that his younger sister was going to join some propaganda team, but he had not thought about the issue of her moving out.
When he heard this, he immediately put down his bowl and blurted out:
"Xiao Ye, you can't move away!"
The old couple: “???” In just these few days, the brother and sister relationship has become so deep?
Yu Xiaoye looked at his second brother's anxious and angry expression and knew that this was not a case of deep brotherly love. There must be another reason:
"Why?"
Yu Erye was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks, but couldn't utter a word.
Seeing that he couldn't say a word for a long time, Xu Ying said with a stern face:
"Even food can't stop you from eating. Eat your food!"
Yu Xiaoye didn't bother with her second brother. She thought of another question and said shyly:
"Oh, Brother Jia, you said that other people who joined the propaganda team still received a monthly salary, but I'm not a farm worker, so I don't get a salary either. So what do you think is the status of me being in the propaganda team?"
Jia Song chewed the cake, a meaningful fake smile appeared on his face. He turned to Yu Jiahui and said:
"Old Yu, your daughter is full of ulterior motives. Is she the only one who is ulterior motive for the whole family?"
Yu Xiaoye also put on a fake smile:
"Brother Jia, this has nothing to do with how clever I am. I'm just afraid that I won't be accepted properly in the propaganda team and that they won't like me."
"I knew you wouldn't want to take this loss. Don't worry, I'll contact the Publicity Department to see if I can get you a subsidy. If you seize this opportunity, you might have the chance to become a regular employee of the farm in the future, and then you can receive a monthly salary like everyone else."
Yu Xiaoye chuckled:
"Brother Jia, how about this? I don't want an allowance, and I don't want a job. Can you ask the farm leaders to find a job for my second brother? I'll work for the propaganda team for a few months for free, and I don't want a penny! I don't even want food expenses! As long as you can find a job for my second brother, it's fine. Although my second brother is not well educated, he can do some physical work. He can also feed cattle, so let him feed the cattle, right, second brother?"
Yu Xiaoye poked Yu Erye at the right time.
Yu Erye hesitated for a moment before nodding his head.
"Yes, yes, yes, my third uncle feeds cows in the production team, I know how to feed cows!"
Jia Song frowned and wanted to say something, but when he saw Yu Jiahui and Xu Ying were present, he held back and said nothing. After a long while, he said:
"You think too highly of me!"
After saying this, he got off the kang with both legs:
"Okay, I'm full. I'm leaving now. Thank you for the treat."
Xu Ying said politely:
"Come back next time for dinner."
Jia Song responded, put on his shoes, and left with his unfinished pot of soup.
Watching Jia Song walk out of the courtyard, Xu Ying said a little uneasily:
"Did you make him angry?"
Yu Xiaoye was not worried at all:
"No, that's just his temper. He's not really angry."
Xu Ying sighed:
"Secretary Jia has a really good temper. He's quite straightforward."
Yu Jiahui picked up the bowl, poured half of the cornmeal porridge into his stomach, and picked up the unfinished bread:
"I'm going to work, you guys are busy at home."
He held a biscuit in his mouth, hung the teacup for drinking water on his waist, put on his shoes and left.
After Yu Jiahui left, Yu Xiaoye suddenly remembered something and got off the kang to run out to chase Yu Jiahui.
When Yu Erye saw his younger sister was about to leave, he didn't even bother eating, and hurried downstairs to follow her. He put on his shoes and chased after her:
"Ono! Ono!"
Yu Xiaoye stopped and saw his second brother's worried look, and asked:
"Second brother, what's wrong?"
"Well, can you please not move out and just live at home, okay?"
"Why?"
"——" Yu Erye was speechless, sweat breaking out on his forehead. "That's right, if you leave, no one will stop my parents from beating me again!"
"Ha ha ha ha--"
Yu Xiaoye couldn't help but throw his head back and laugh out loud, his laughter was crisp and clear.
The birds on the branches outside the yard were startled and flew away.
Yu Erye said seriously:
"Don't laugh, I'm serious. I feel safer with you at home. If you weren't here, wouldn't I get beaten three times a day? Maybe even more than three times!"
Every time his parents lost their temper and wanted to beat him, his little sister would stop them.
With his little sister around, how many fewer beatings would he get?
Especially since his younger sister is at home, she can give him some advice, remind him, and tell him what to do to avoid making his parents angry.
My younger sister is his military advisor, his support and shield at home.
He had become accustomed to his younger sister's presence and had begun to rely on her protection. Now that the person who protected him was moving out, he felt as if he had been stripped naked in the middle of winter, with no protection at all.
Yu Xiaoye laughed for a long time before he covered his stomach and looked at his second brother who had a worried look on his face, saying breathlessly:
"Brother, it's okay. I will come back often."
Yu Erye sighed helplessly:
"I really don't want you to leave."
As he spoke, he became sad:
"My eldest brother is gone, and now you are leaving too. I am the only one left at home. It's boring, really boring."
Seeing that her second brother seemed a little reluctant to leave her, Yu Xiaoye finally stopped laughing, paused, looked at her second brother and said:
"Second brother, my eldest brother and I are not here, and you are the only one who stays with our parents. Maybe you will become very popular in the future. Our parents will stop beating you and will treat you very well."
"real?"
"real!"
"Why--"
Yu Erye sighed again, thinking that his younger sister must be coaxing him.
