Outside the house, Xia Xiao'e slowly ate a string of candied haws, licking them most of the time.
Yu Cheng was chewing the candied haws in big mouthfuls, making crunching sounds.
He sneered at the way Xia Xiao'e ate the candied haws: "Tsk, why are you licking it like that?"
Xia Xiao'e: "I just like to eat this way, what's it got to do with you?"
"It affects my eyes!"
"You've ruined my appetite!"
"You really haven't seen the world!"
"You've seen the world! You've seen the world, but you've never bought this for my sister-in-law. What's the matter? As long as my sister-in-law buys it, you think it's free? You ate three skewers in one go, and you didn't even think to leave some for my sister-in-law!"
Yu Cheng rolled his eyes: "Aren't there still four skewers? What are you arguing about?"
Xia Xiao'e: "I counted, sister-in-law bought eight skewers in total, that means you and I get two each, and sister-in-law eats four!"
"Why does it have to be my sister who eats four?"
"My sister-in-law spent the money, so of course she ate more. How dare you say that!"
Yu Cheng thought that he was a college student and a boy, so he shook his head and said that he would no longer care.
Xia Xiao'e said confidently: "...I knew you wouldn't think of leaving any for others!"
After a while, Yu Sui took the child to Xia Xiao'e's bed to put him to sleep, and then came out.
As soon as Xia Xiao'e saw her, she quickly gave up her seat to Yu Sui: "Sister-in-law, come and sit down. Come and eat too. We have already eaten."
Yu Sui looked at the table: "Why are there so many left? Don't you like it?"
It was Yu Cheng who complained first: "Second sister, you don't know, Xia Xiao'e doesn't allow me to eat anymore, saying that you bought eight skewers and you should eat four by yourself."
Xia Xiao'e immediately glared: "You've already eaten three skewers, haven't you? Why do you want to eat more?"
The bickering mode has begun again!
Yu Sui was not surprised at all, she just shook her head helplessly: "Eat it, I bought so much just because I wanted you to eat more. I don't like this, I only need to eat one string, you guys can eat the rest."
Xia Xiao'e held up two skewers and stuffed them into Yu Sui's hands: "People who raise families always say, 'I don't like it, I don't want to eat it'. In fact, they just want to save it for us. I understand. Sister-in-law, there's no need to be like this. You've worked hard all day, you should eat it!"
Yu Cheng rolled his eyes at Xia Xiao'e and said word by word: "F*ck!"
Yu Sui felt helpless towards these two people. She ate two skewers and gave the other one to Xia Xiao'e: "Eat it quickly, these things will attract ants."
Xia Xiao'e held two skewers, feeling very embarrassed, so she held one skewer in front of Yu Cheng and said, "Eat it, I know you're craving it!"
Yu Cheng: “I don’t have that!”
"Why would you eat so much if you weren't here? Why are you pretending to be so hypocritical?"
Yu Cheng: "..." Why is it all my fault! This stubborn and overbearing bumpkin!
Seeing that Yu Cheng was about to retort, Yu Sui finally raised her hand to stop him and changed the subject by speaking to Xia Xiao'e: "Xiao'e, Yu Cheng just said what you were asking him about... New Huaxia Women's School? Where is this school? How did you know about it?"
Xia Xiao'e immediately let Yu Cheng go, her expression becoming excited:
"Sister-in-law, didn't you ask me to find out if there are any vocational schools nearby? I went out to ask, and I found that the people here are very polite. What's that called? Oh, polite and courteous! I told people that my sister-in-law is very kind to me. She is a university student at Qinghua University and she wants me to have the opportunity to study there too. She wants to find a vocational school for me. Do you know any schools?
Then an old lady said, "There used to be a New China Women's School. It was very good. It only accepted female comrades, and all the graduates were cadres. They might have done something like that. Those female students were even sent to the battlefield. Oh, not to fight, but to be reporters. My God, sister-in-law, just think about it, female reporters, how amazing! Just think about it, if I could go to a school like that, how great it would be!"
Yu Sui had indeed not paid attention to this school before. After hearing what Xia Xiao'e said, she turned to Yu Cheng and asked, "Hey, you said earlier that you just knew about this school. How did you know about it?"
Yu Cheng said with some pride:
"Oh, there's a girl in our class who's so cute she's really popular. I heard her introduce herself. Her mother was one of the first batch of students at the New Huaxia Women's School, so she's very independent and strong. She wants to promote women's independence in the future. Oh, anyway... well, she just thinks that women are much stronger than men, that's kind of funny.
Hey, then after she talked about it, many girls came to ask her what this school was like, and I knew it, but what I know is that this school has been closed down. Xia Xiao'e, didn't the old lady who told you about this school tell you that it was closed down?
Xia Xiao'e glanced at him:
"She did! She's a former teacher there! She said it was indeed closed for a few years, but after the college entrance exam was reinstated last year, someone mentioned opening a new school. The old lady even said they might officially start enrolling students next year. Before that, they're holding study sessions and selecting a group of serious students in advance. If I want to go, she can recommend me."
This is really unexpected news.
Yu Cheng and Yu Sui couldn't help but look at each other.
Yu Cheng immediately expressed disdain and suspicion: "Ha, hahaha, recommend you? You? They're trying to trick you, right?"
Xia Xiao'e was so angry that she stood up all of a sudden: "How could she lie to me? The old lady is very knowledgeable. She knew that my sister-in-law was a student at Qinghua University. She said that people who can persist in going to college after having children are worthy of praise, so she recommended me! What do you know? You know!"
Yu Cheng smirked, "Then what do I recommend you learn? Ah, how to save money? How to lick a candied haws? Hahahaha!"
Xia Xiao'e clenched her fists, her forehead veins popping out with anger. She glanced at Yu Sui and said, "Sister-in-law, I won't talk to people like that! I'll go see if Xiao Tangyuan has woken up!"
After saying that, she turned around and went into the room, completely ignoring Yu Cheng.
Yu Sui put her hands on the armrests of the chair, crossed her legs, and looked at Yu Cheng quietly and coldly.
Yu Chenggang was still laughing, but when he turned around and saw Yu Sui's gaze, he was startled: "Uh, Second Sister, why are you...looking at me like that? It's scary!"
Yu Sui: "Do you think you are amazing?"
"I...I don't have any?"
"No? Why do I feel like you look down on lesbians?"
"I, I didn't!"
Yu Sui glared at him, "No? One moment you say it's ridiculous that people are advocating women's independence, and the next moment you think Xiao E's language skills are just for the sake of saving money? Yu Cheng, let me tell you, you're the worst for not looking down on lesbians. If you dare look down on lesbians, I'll be the first to ignore you. You have to pay for your tuition and you're not allowed to come to eat, ever again!"
