Gu Yuan's "enthusiasm" did not win Xue Jiayu's gratitude. Instead, he was scolded by her after getting off the car.
However, he has always been a carefree person. He was not annoyed when Xue Jiayu glared at him. He just asked Xue Jiayu when he could play with him.
“No time!”
Gu Yuan touched his nose, not angry at Xue Jiayu's attitude, and pushed his little bicycle home.
As soon as he arrived at the Zhan family, Zhan Nanqi got out of the car and walked home.
Xue Jiayu also wanted to get off the car and go home, but was stopped by Jiang Peirong.
"Jiayu."
"Aunt Jiang."
Xue Jiayu sat back obediently and looked at her meekly.
Could it be that she was angry because she and Gu Yuan went to Dr. Jin without permission today?
Just as Xue Jiayu lowered her head and was about to admit her mistake, Jiang Peirong suddenly choked up.
"Do you think Brother Nanqi's illness is serious? Will he never get better?"
Jiang Peirong has always been confident about Zhan Nanqi's illness, but this time, Dr. Jin's incident made her once again feel the society's discrimination against autism.
What if Zhan Nanqi can't be cured in his lifetime? What will Zhan Nanqi do after she and Zhan Aoxiang die?
Xue Jiayu saw what she was worried about, so she leaned forward and patted Jiang Peirong on the back comfortingly.
"Aunt Jiang, actually Brother Nanqi's illness is not serious. He usually chats with me and Gu Yuan when he is with us."
Her words comforted Jiang Peirong a little, "Really? Fortunately, I have friends like you, otherwise Nan Qi might not be able to make any friends in this life."
"How is that possible!"
Xue Jiayu immediately turned into a little fangirl of Zhan Nanqi, "Aunt Jiang, look at Brother Nanqi, he's handsome, smart, and good at physics! Although he doesn't talk much, he always helps us solve problems! One Brother Nanqi is worth two Gu Yuans!"
Jiang Peirong couldn't help laughing.
"You, you, you little girl, Gu Yuan will be sad to hear this."
"Anyway, Aunt Jiang, don't be sad. Brother Nanqi's autism is actually not as serious as you think. Don't you think he is much more lively now than before? He doesn't stay at home reading books all day anymore, and occasionally goes to Gu Yuan's house with us to play!"
That's true.
After meeting Xue Jiayu, no matter where she went, Xue Jiayu would always include Zhan Nanqi and bring him into the group. This is also one of the reasons why she likes Xue Jiayu very much.
Jiang Peirong touched her little head and said, "Thank you, Jiayu. After hearing what you said, I feel much better."
After dealing with the quack Dr. Jin, Xue Jiayu returned home happily.
Xu Suzhen was nowhere to be found. Ying Huanyu was watching TV with her arms folded. She didn't even turn her head when she heard her come back.
"Xiaoyu! Sister is back!"
Ying Huanyu looked at the TV angrily and said sarcastically, "Sister, are you still my sister? Aren't you Zhan Nanqi's sister now? You left me at home and went to his house and didn't come back for a long time."
Hearing from her tone that she was jealous again, Xue Jiayu had no choice but to explain to her patiently, telling her the whole story of Dr. Jin's matter.
But after listening to her, Ying Huanyu just looked at her coldly.
"What does this have to do with me?"
Xue Jiayu didn't expect Ying Huanyu to be so stubborn and couldn't help scratching her head, "Xiaoyu, what can I do to make you forgive me?"
"I don't want to forgive you anymore."
Ying Huanyu turned her gaze back to the TV, and Xue Jiayu seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Xu Suzhen came down from upstairs holding clothes, "Xiaobao is back."
"grandmother."
Xue Jiayu had no choice but to help Xu Suzhen with the housework first. She now knew how to fold clothes, and sometimes she folded them better than Xu Suzhen.
"My dear, why don't you go watch TV? Grandma doesn't need your help."
The TV at home was occupied by Ying Huanyu every day. Although Xu Suzhen didn't say it, she was not very happy in her heart.
Under normal circumstances, Ying Huanyu would definitely run to help after hearing this, but today she didn't want to move at all, and even if she heard it, she just pretended not to hear it.
Xue Jiayu immediately changed the subject and asked what they were having for dinner tonight.
"How about having some black rice porridge and grandma will make you some fish to go with the rice?"
"OK!"
Xue Jiayu agreed immediately, and Xu Suzhen went to wash the rice and prepare to cook porridge.
But as soon as Xu Suzhen left the living room, Ying Huanyu said unhappily, "I don't want to drink black rice porridge, I want to eat noodles."
"Then tell grandma when she comes."
Ying Huanyu pouted, "Grandma doesn't like me. If I tell her, she will definitely scold me and think I am too troublesome."
"Then I'll help you tell it!"
This is exactly what Ying Huanyu was waiting for.
So when Xu Suzhen came out of the kitchen again, Xue Jiayu immediately said, "Grandma, I suddenly don't want to eat black rice porridge. I want to eat noodles."
Xu Suzhen subconsciously thought that it was Ying Huanyu's doing and immediately looked at her.
Xue Jiayu hurriedly said, "Grandma! I want to eat it. It has nothing to do with my sister."
"Okay, grandma got it. I'll go roll the noodles now."
As long as Xue Jiayu wants to eat something, even if she wants a full banquet, Xu Suzhen can make it for her.
Xu Suzhen went into the kitchen to get busy. Xue Jiayu whispered, "Sister, if you want to eat anything else, you can tell me and I'll tell them for you. So please don't be angry with me, okay?"
"not good."
Ying Huanyu felt aggrieved. "You left me at home and went out with Gu Yuan and Zhan Nanqi for so long. You didn't worry at all whether I was bullied or not..."
"How could you be bullied? Aren't you at home?"
Ying Huanyu was already immersed in her own world, and immediately burst into tears when she heard Xue Jiayu's rebuttal.
"You won't believe me no matter what I say now."
"...Okay, I'm sorry, sister. I was wrong about this. I will definitely take you out with me next time." Xue Jiayu coaxed her for a long time before Ying Huanyu smiled.
When Xue Wangjun and his wife came back, they were surprised to find that they were eating noodles today.
Xu Suzhen brought the noodles to the table and explained, "Xiaobao wanted to eat noodles."
"Xiaobao, don't you always like to eat?" Jiang Qiuyu handed the first bowl to Xue Jiayu, and couldn't help but think of the time when Li Minxue loved eating noodles when she was in school. She would eat two bowls at a time every time she saw her in the cafeteria.
"I want to change the taste today."
Xue Jiayu frowned after taking the first bite. She still preferred to eat rice; noodles were too difficult to chew.
Ying Huanyu, however, ate with great relish, unable to stop eating one bite after another.
Jiang Qiuyi seemed to be thinking about something, and suddenly said, "Xiaobao, Huanyu, Mom and Dad are planning to redecorate your rooms. You are both in elementary school, so it's time for you to live separately."
She had always wanted to let the two children live separately, but the reason she gave them was that the two of them had too much stuff and couldn't fit it all in one room.
"I don't want to be separated from my sister." Ying Huanyu immediately put down the bowl and hugged Xue Jiayu.
Xue Jiayu didn't care whether they broke up or not, but seeing that Ying Huanyu didn't want to, she also said that she didn't want to.
"Mom, we're not actually crowded."
