Yu Heng carried Yi Ke all the way. When he passed by the village chief’s house, he even picked up Yi Ke’s lunch. Wan Shi looked at his young lady worriedly and sighed helplessly.
She was indeed spoiled. Now, she didn’t even want to walk on her own.
Yi Shi didn’t feel awkward following the two of them. When they parted ways at the entrance of the house, Yu Heng turned to look at her. “I’ve really troubled you today. I’ll treat you and Auntie to a meal in a few days.”
Yi Shi waved her hand to indicate that there was no need to trouble himself and went home. She was not like that brainless fool, Yi Ke, and knew how to quit while she was ahead.
Lunch at home was porridge that had not been eaten in the morning. Yu Xiang even cooked a few potatoes in it to increase the feeling of fullness.
However, the fragrance of Yi Ke’s luxurious lunch continued to waft out. Yu Heng looked at his younger siblings and felt that letting Yi Ke stay in his house was the worst decision. He felt that if Yi Ke continued to live like this, sooner or later, his younger siblings would wag their tails and beg her for food.
After lunch, Yu Heng took his things and went out again. He had to collect the corn. If he left it again, it would rot in the ground. Before he left, he even specially went to knock on Yi Ke’s door to ask if she wanted to follow him, lest she ran around and got lost again.
The morning’s exposure to the sun made Yi Ke lose her energy. She just wanted to take a good afternoon nap and decisively rejected it.
Yu Yu also finished his meal and went out with his fishing rod. During the summer vacation, he would hang more fish to make dried fish. Not only could he eat it himself, but he could also sell it.
Before Yu Yu left the house, he told Yu Xiang to stay away from Yi Ke, the little witch, and not to be bullied. Yu Xiang nodded obediently, washed the bowl, and was about to do her homework when Yi Ke’s door opened.
After confirming that Yu Heng and Yu Yu had left, Yi Ke called Yu Xiang over. Yu Xiang hesitated for a long time. Thinking of Yi Ke’s attitude towards her in the morning, she still went over.
“Miss, what’s wrong?”
“Take off your shoes and come in here to do your homework.” Yi Ke was afraid of the heat. After she complained to Wan Shi in the morning, someone came to install a generator and electric fan at noon. The cold wind blew for half a day, and the lights were installed. It was bright and cool.
Yu Xiang stood at the door. She was afraid of dirtying the carpet in the room, but Yi Ke didn’t care. Yu Xiang thought about it and ran to wash her feet clean before taking off her shoes and walking in.
Yi Ke casually took a pillow and threw it to Yu Xiang for her to lean on. Yu Xiang leaned on the table and did her homework, but she didn’t write two words as she looked around the room curiously. She had never seen such a room before.
Yi Ke placed a bottle of beverage beside Yu Xiang’s hand. The little girl was so frightened that she dodged to the side and almost fell off the chair.
“What exactly are you afraid of me for?” Yi Ke sighed, unscrewed the Coke and took two sips. She then raised her hand and poked Yu Xiang’s face. “Don’t be afraid. I have something to ask you. I won’t let you take it for nothing.”
When Yu Xiang heard her say this, she picked up the drink and took a sip. The sweet soda exploded in her mouth, and the little girl took another big sip.
Yi Ke wanted to laugh. She asked, “How did your brother describe me to you? Let me ask you, do you know the sister next door?”
“Sister Shi?”
“Yes, that’s her.” Yi Ke sat on the bed swinging her feet. She had an idea.
“That sister likes your brother and wants to marry him.” Yi Ke looked at Yu Xiang’s puzzled gaze and explained to her, “If your brother gets married, it means that another person will move in. You have to call her ‘Sister-in-law’. You have to cook for one more person every day. If she gets pregnant in the future and has a baby, there will be more people. At that time, your brother definitely won’t be able to care about you and your parents. If you’re lucky, you’ll only eat less and do more. If you’re unlucky, you’ll probably become homeless children and beggars. Then you’ll starve to death, freeze to death, and die.”
Yi Ke stuck out her tongue and rolled her eyes before lying down on the bed.
Yu Xiang was frightened by her words. She pursed her lips and was about to cry. “Boohoo, I don’t want Big Brother to get married! I don’t want her to marry Sister Shi!”
Seeing that she had achieved her goal, Yi Ke sat up with a smile and kindly handed a piece of paper to Yu Xiang. “So you have to look after your big brother and ask him to reduce his contact with Sister Shi. Just don’t let her be your sister-in-law.”
When Yu Xiang heard her say this, she hurriedly nodded. She didn’t want to die like that.
Yi Ke fed Yu Xiang another candy and let her do her homework. Looking at the little girl’s back, Yi Ke felt a little sad.
If there was a chance in the future, she might as well bring Yu Xiang to her side and take good care of her. Look at how thin the child was. Even the monkeys in the circus were fatter than her.
