“I don’t think there’s anything wrong with me this time. These questions aren’t particularly difficult…”
“I think I’m done for this time. I need to prepare. Maybe I can even take the self-admission exam for the second year of high school…”
Yun Xi ignored these voices. In her mind, she was already starting to imagine which school in the city would be better for her to study in!
It had been a few days since Yun Qiao returned home to the farm. On the first day he received the letter, he borrowed some money from his immediate superior. After all, his comrades who had joined the army with him were not particularly wealthy, so he was too embarra.s.sed to ask, he could only borrow some money from his superior officers.
The moment Ma Yan saw her eldest son, she did not ask if it was tough being a soldier or how long did it take to go home. The first thing she did was to take out the borrowed cash from Yun Qiao’s bag.
!!
Her eyes were filled with greed.
“How can there be so little money? Your brother is sick, and you only borrowed so little money. If it’s not enough, are you planning to let your brother wait for death? Why are you so…”
Ma Yan saw that the envelope was a little thin and began to scold again.
However, she had forgotten that Yun Zhu’s illness was not caused by Yun Qiao. Yun Qiao had turned down the opportunity to be promoted in the army and returned home with a sum of money. He could be considered to have done his best as an elder brother.
The one who caused Yun Zhu to have this kind of illness, and it was becoming more and more serious, was Ma Yan herself, right!?
Some of the neighbors could not stand it anymore. They thought that this child was too pitiful. As a mother, she only cared about her youngest son, not her eldest son.
Yun Qiao seemed to have gotten used to this att.i.tude. He did not say anything. He just put her bag in the house and listened to Ma Yan’s explanation.
Ma Yan finally stopped after complaining for a long time. She glanced at the money in the envelope and said to Yun Qiao, “In the past, you’ve done all this work at home, so I don’t need to give you any more instructions. This trip might take us ten days to half a month. Our farm is at the most critical period of farming, so you have to work hard alone!”
After saying that, Ma Yan patted Yun Qiao’s shoulder, then turned around and left.
Yun Qiao glanced at the letter on the table. Then he looked out of the door. Although he did not need to spend much money at home, Ma Yan did not leave him a single yuan in the envelope.
Had she ever considered that his life would not be easy?!
He could not help but sigh.
He knew that he was doing this for his parents, but it was not that he did not have a conscience, nor was he unwilling to take care of his younger brother. He was not a saint, so he could not be selfless. He just hoped that his parents would treat him and his younger brother equally.
“h.e.l.lo, I want to know where the Yun family lives in our village.”
A crisp female voice rang out in the small village. The girl was wearing a white dress and looked very western. She did not fit in with the entire village.
The girl was holding a map in her hand and was asking around. She had a smile on her face and looked very beautiful.
The young man in the village raised his head and looked at the girl. He blushed and stuttered as he pointed the way for her.
“This little girl looks like a foreigner. Who is she looking for in our village?”
Some villagers who were pa.s.sing by raised their voices and asked.
“I’m here to look for Yun Qiao from your village!” The little girl did not avoid the topic and spoke clearly.
A smile hung on the faces of the villagers who were pa.s.sing by. It seemed that although this Yun Qiao from the Yun family was not liked by her parents, he seemed to have gotten lucky in love.
After asking a little bit, Luo Chen finally came to the front door of the Yun family.
“How did you find this place?”
Yun Qiao was cleaning up the farm tools and hoes at the door. When he raised his head, he was shocked to see Luo Chen in a white dress.
“I came here to find you, of course. Do you want me to stand outside the door all the time? Aren’t you going to invite me in for a drink?”
Luo Chen said directly while holding her skirt and teasing him.
“Oh, please come in, please come in. I’ll get you a gla.s.s of water.” Yun Qiao then called her in.
A smile hung on the corner of Luo Chen’s mouth, but she complained in his heart, ‘What a fool!’
