Nan Yu shook her head and said, "He's a gambler. He lost the house. My mother needed money for chemotherapy, so I came out to work."
Pei Ji didn't want to guess what was going on or probe, so he asked directly, "Brother, how do you make money? I checked, this house is in your name."
"You're investigating me?"
Pei Ji was also afraid that he would get angry, so she took Nan Yu's hand and shook it, acting coquettishly and aggrievedly, saying, "I was just checking casually, brother won't be angry with me, will he?"
Not angry.
Nan Yu is like an outsider. Besides being confined by her personality, she is indifferent to certain events. If there's an investigation, so be it. It's no big deal.
"oh."
"Brother, you're not angry, are you?"
"Don't be angry."
Pei Ji hugged Nan Yu tightly, nuzzling her affectionately, "I knew my brother was the best~"
Nan Yu liked Pei Ji rubbing against her and also liked him acting cute. When he pinched her, she felt good.
"Where did the money come from, brother?" He hugged the young man, resting his chin on Nan Yu's shoulder. Because of the height difference, he had to bend over, and he was particularly clingy.
Do I really have to say it?
Don't you want to talk about it?
"You won't believe me if I tell you."
"Conjured up?" Pei Ji laughed.
"Spit out by a turtle."
"Turtle?"
"You're the bastard!" the system exclaimed, jumping up and down, cursing Nan Yu. Then it turned around, its back to the host and its face towards Pei Ji, "You're a bastard too! Your whole family are bastards!"
Turning around, [I'm a golden turtle! You stinky host, if you keep this up, I'm ignoring you!]
The little lamp wick can't tell the difference between a turtle and a tortoise.
Seeing that the other person was angry, he said, "I'm sorry."
Jin Wangba's temper subsided immediately. He couldn't bring himself to retaliate after his outburst, so he gave a haughty snort and scurried away.
Seeing his older brother apologizing in a certain direction, Pei Ji rubbed his arms a little nervously. "Baby, what are you doing?"
"The turtle is angry, apologize to it."
"ah?"
"Uh-huh."
Why apologize?
"His name is Golden Turtle, and I call him Turtle."
"Uh... Brother, you're raising... a ghost?" Although it's feudal superstition, some people really do raise ghosts. Pei Ji has seen it before. Plus, Nan Yu herself has a mental illness, so it's really hard to say which situation it is.
"No, you bastard, I only keep it as a pet, you probably can't see it."
Why can't I see it?
"I just can't see it."
Pei Ji's expression was complicated. "Brother, besides the golden tortoise, what else can you see?"
Nan Yu: "Hmm? It's you."
Pei Ji: "Brother, for example, can you see souls or something?"
Nanyu: "Ghost?"
Pei Ji nodded.
Nan Yu shook her head.
Pei Ji: "How could you see the golden tortoise? It..." He paused, "...and how does it spit out money?"
It's not necessary to get to the bottom of things.
The main reason was that Nan Yu suddenly did this to him.
A little...
Having lived together for so long, he always thought that Xiaoyu was quiet, aloof, and didn't like going out. Little did he know that she also kept an invisible creature, which was quite frightening.
"My ** (system)!" The world automatically censored his words. Nan Yu: ?
"My ** (system)." Nan Yu: ...
"The world has blocked my words; it's as if you can't hear me."
Pei Ji handed him the phone. "Can I write this, brother?"
Pushing, the stubborn donkey shook its head, then rubbed its stomach, "I'm hungry."
Pei Ji had no choice but to focus on the porridge.
It's been on my mind the whole time.
When he went to lift the lid of the clay pot, he didn't wear heat-resistant gloves and was so distracted that he got burned. He reflexively pulled his hand back and gasped for breath. Nan Yu immediately ran over, grabbed his hand, and led him to the sink to rinse it.
Three minutes later, the water was still rushing.
Pei Ji felt a warmth in his heart and said, "It's okay, brother, it doesn't hurt anymore."
Nan Yu didn't look at the boy, but her tone was very serious, "You need to rinse it for half an hour, otherwise it will get blisters and hurt."
Pei Ji was the one who told him that you should rinse a burn with cold water for half an hour.
"No, brother, I'll just move it away. It won't bubble. Can you let me turn off the heat? If it's overcooked, it won't taste good later."
Nan Yu went over to turn off the stove herself, not letting Pei Ji move, insisting that he rinse the burn. The water flow was turned down, and after rinsing for half an hour, the little tail ran off to get the burn ointment, holding his hand and carefully applying it.
Then wrap it up carefully with gauze.
Pei Ji looked at Nan Yu with eyes full of love. His hand no longer hurt; after rinsing it for half an hour, even the redness had disappeared. He liked his brother's concern.
After all that delaying, the porridge had almost gone warm.
Nan Yu ladled out a bowl and fed it to Pei Ji.
Pei Ji still wanted to ask, "Brother, money?"
Nan Yu: "Spit out by the golden turtle."
Pei Ji: "Where did this golden turtle come from?"
Nan Yu: "** (System)"
Every time she said those two words, they were censored; Nan Yu could hear the muted sound in her ears. She frowned, "**(System)**"
"**(system)"
"**(system)"
"**(system)"
"**(system)"
"**(system)"
"**(system)"
"**(system)"
Nan Yu got impatient, as if he was going against the heavens. He kept saying "** (system)" "** (system)" "** (system)" "** (system)" for almost an hour. From Pei Ji's perspective, all he could see was his unspoken words.
Even if she's emotionally stable, once she gets stubborn, Nan Yu will be furious and won't be happy to look at Pei Ji anymore. Why does she have to ask?
He punched Pei Ji in the eye, giving him a black eye on one side.
The boy was stunned.
"………………"
Nan Yu was so angry that she lost her temper.
The force applied in his hands was neither light nor heavy.
Pei Ji's eye quickly developed a bruise, indicating that he had hit her too hard. Nan Yu began to regret it again, swallowed hard, and like a child who had made a mistake, clutched the sides of her clothes and bowed her head to admit her mistake.
"Yes, I'm sorry." Her voice choked with emotion.
Pei Ji didn't know why his wife beat him, but he knew there must be a reason.
After hitting someone, he even scared himself to tears.
Oh dear.
He reached out and pulled the person into his arms, coaxing, "It's okay, it doesn't hurt. Why are you crying?"
He was already choking up if I didn't comfort him, and when I did, he thought of the heavens preventing him from speaking, which made him feel incredibly wronged. He also felt guilty for beating his younger brother so badly that he had black eyes. With these two aggravating factors combined, he hugged the person and started sobbing.
"I don't want to talk about it anymore. I was wrong, so I won't ask anymore."
Nan Yu barely ate anything that night; the Heavenly Dao's shield had made him so angry he was full.
Pei Ji was beaten, and then had to be coaxed from evening until late at night.
It's his fault for being so talkative.
You made your brother so angry.
Old wounds haven't healed and new ones have appeared. I need to take good care of myself now. I have classes during the day, so I wear sunglasses and a mask tightly. I spend my lunch break and evenings with my brother.
Nan Yu has also been learning to cook recently.
Pei Ji didn't get back until after midnight on Wednesdays and Thursdays. The boy skipped classes a few times, and Nan Yu got angry with him, so he stayed late after that.
Nan Yu felt sorry for him because he had another class in the first period of the afternoon and was in a hurry.
So I learned on my own and tried my best to make the dishes look, smell, and taste delicious.
Unfortunately, he doesn't seem to have much talent for cooking.
It's just something you can eat.
"Brother, are we going back to see Mom?"
Nan Yu was taken aback. "You're going back?" She lowered her head and said, "Remember to come back later."
She patted Pei Ji's head, then looked up and gave him a small kiss on the lips.
Fortunately, the two places are close by, and her younger brother will be back in a short while, Nan Yu thought.
