Ye Wei's words made Ye Ying a little scared, and what made her even more terrifying was that Ye Wei was clearly targeting her, she was obviously a scheming person, but no one noticed this, even her brother and Zhang Yu seemed to be blinded by her.
After the water was delivered, she went home and peeled and sliced the lettuce. Although there were only a few of them, she was very laborious to make them, and even nearly cut them into her hands, so frightened that she could not even throw the kitchen knife, Tong Ke held her cheeks and watched. As he instructed her, he couldn't help shaking his head at this moment: "Clumsy, when you cut the vegetables, the day lily will be cold!"
Ye Ying has never done this before, let alone cooking, so it's no wonder that it goes smoothly. She cut the vegetables carefully, fearing to hurt her hand, she heard the words firmly and seriously: "I will cut it well. of."
She will definitely be able to. When grandma and the others come back, they will have delicious food to eat. They don't have to cook hard, and they can rest for a while after the meal.
Tong Ke shrugged and said: "If you have this skill, why don't you help out? When Ye Wei and the others come back, they will be able to cook a table of dishes in half an hour. What have you done this morning? Boil some water and cut a few lettuces, don't you still think that you're working really hard?"
Ye Ying: "...I didn't think so."
Tong Ke chirped and murmured, "It'll be pretentious."
Ye Ying glanced at Tong Ke, not wanting to have the same knowledge as her, and continued to immerse herself in cutting vegetables, because the knife was not very skilled, and she was worried that she would be able to cut it.
Tong Ke felt bored after standing for a while, then turned around and walked out of the kitchen. On this hot day, she didn't want to work in the fields, even if Zhang Yu was there, she didn't want to go. Before, in order to earn some performance points, she followed to dig in the ground. Luohuan, she almost died of exhaustion. In order to be able to be with Zhang Yu in the future, she decided to cherish her life and just stay at home honestly.
As soon as she left, Ye Tao came in. He smiled at Ye Ying's serious look and said, "Let me go."
Ye Ying's mouth was flat: "Brother is sick, just lie down and rest. I can't be bothered by this."
Ye Tao made a joke: "I'm just worried, if I eat the food you cook, I can't move if I lie down."
Ye Ying: "...Then brother, don't eat it!"
She glared at Ye Tao, Ye Tao's face was innocent, Ye Ying couldn't help laughing, and she felt a little more relaxed, but after laughing, she remembered Ye Wei's words again, she thought about it, and said: " Brother, what kind of person do you think my sister is?"
Ye Tao was stunned for a moment: "What's the matter, suddenly asking this?"
"It's nothing, it's only when I came back this time that I found out that my sister has so many difficulties, she works so hard, but I occupy her identity and live a good life. I feel a little sorry." Ye Ying said, "And I feel that before. You don't seem to like your sister very much? Do you still think so now?"
Ye Tao's face is not as relaxed as it was before, his face was pale after his illness, and his calm face now is really scary: "I don't dislike Ye Wei, but I used to think that she disliked the poor and loved the rich. , to abandon the person who has raised her for more than ten years is ruthless, but I don't think so anymore. I have to abandon a family like Chen Weiguo. Ye Wei is hard-working, kind, brave, decisive, and strong... Growing up under long-term oppression, she did not become timid, timid and cowardly. Instead, she resolutely used suicide to seek another way out for herself. Well, she is indeed the daughter of our Ye family. She can fight to the death for her own life. Such courage is not human. Everyone has it!"
Ye Ying looked at Ye Tao's proud face, and remembered that Ye Tao once taught her that no matter what the reason, she could not make fun of her own life. I didn't expect that what Ye Tao once disliked Ye Wei the most had become his most. Admire her place.
After being proud, Ye Tao is still very distressed: "It's really not easy for Ye Wei to grow up in such an environment, she worked with her grandmother since she was a child, and if her father doesn't love her mother, it must be very hard and very hard. I have only seen this kind of hard work in books and on TV. Although I knew it would be very hard and tiring, but when I really experienced it, I realized that this kind of hard work is much harder than I imagined.”
"Growing up in this family atmosphere, it's no wonder she has those thoughts. I can understand it now. If I grew up in this environment, if I had a father like Chen Weiguo, if there was no one to guide me, I'm afraid I will become the second Chen Weiguo! Fortunately, Ye Wei still has grandma, otherwise... where can we wait for us to find her, I'm afraid it will be ruined for the rest of my life!"
Ye Ying listened quietly, looking at Ye Tao's proud and distressed appearance, she knew that Ye Tao had completely accepted Ye Wei at this moment.
"I'll call my parents later and tell them about Ye Wei's life here." Ye Tao said that he had long wanted to talk to his parents about this, but because he himself It was so shocking that he didn't know where to start. Now that he was sick, he calmed down and thought about a lot of things.
"I want to tell them that Chen Weiguo is simply not a human being. Let them stop giving Chen Weiguo money. The person we should really thank is Grandma Chen. Let's stay away from Chen Weiguo, Yingying, although Chen Weiguo is your biological father, you just need to do your best to be filial. Don't get too close to him. He has a bad mind. If you can be so excessive, I'm afraid you don't have any sincerity, so it's better to stay away."
Ye Ying nodded and said, "Brother, don't worry, I know."
How could she not understand these days? She didn't want someone like Chen Weiguo to have anything to do with it at all. Sometimes she even felt that someone like Chen Weiguo was her biological father, and felt embarrassed and ashamed. Why is her biological father such a person
She may not dislike Chen Weiguo's poverty, or she may not dislike Chen Weiguo's vulgarity, lack of culture and quality, but she really despise Chen Weiguo's patriarchal style, dislike the poor and love the rich, face-to-face and behind-the-scenes style!
She was ashamed that she had such a father, and she even regretted letting Ye Tao, Zhang Yu and Jiang Fei come with her, every time they talked about Chen Weiguo, every time they talked about Chen Weiguo's helpless and incomprehensible tone She felt a burning pain in her cheeks.
No matter what happens to Chen Weiguo, after all, she has an inseparable blood relationship with her, which cannot be denied no matter what.
She was still thinking about it, Ye Tao was so excited that she called Ye's father and Ye's mother. Although the Internet speed in the mountains was not good, and a video could be stuck for a few hours, it was still possible to make a phone call. He has reported good news these days. Not to report the worry, I thought about it now, and I told Ye Father and Ye Mother what I saw and heard.
"... That's right, Chen Weiguo is too much. It's not what he said because the family is poor and has no money to let Ye Wei study. He wants to leave the money to his son to marry a wife! Really, I heard Chen Weiguo say it with my own ears. of!"
"... Ye Wei went to high school not because of Chen Weiguo, but because of Grandma Chen. Thanks to Grandma Chen, Ye Wei didn't drop out of school. If it wasn't for Grandma Chen, I wouldn't even think about it!"
"...Dad, I don't think Grandma Chen's health is very good, and she is still working hard in her 60s or 70s. Her body will definitely not be able to take it. Let's take her out, or help her improve her life. what."
"... Grandma Chen lives alone now, and Chen Weiguo doesn't care about her. A few years ago, Grandma Chen separated from the Chen family because she stole money to pay Ye Wei's tuition. In order to support Ye Wei to study, Grandma Chen..."
Ye Tao said at this time that he was also half angry with Ye's father and Ye's mother. At that time, they spent money to find Chen Weiguo, because Chen Xiaohong was also born in that hospital. Chen Xiaohong's mother died of dystocia. After Chen Xiaohong was born, she immediately They were thrown back to their hometown by Chen Weiguo, and their people took Ye Wei's blood for a paternity test, and finally confirmed that Ye Wei was indeed their biological daughter! The people who were sent to investigate didn't go too deep into the investigation. They only gave some investigation materials and briefly explained the situation of the Chen family. Later, they had a phone call with Chen Weiguo. On the phone, Chen Weiguo didn't say that!
They knew that the Chen family was poor, but they didn't expect to be so ignorant and inferior!
"When are you coming back?"
"Ye Wei and Grandma Chen are still threshing millet in the field right now, and I don't know when it will be finished. It may take a day or two. When the farming is over, they should be able to come back, right?"
"What are you busy with, come back quickly, you don't know how to change things, go ask someone for help, don't you have any money on you? A little girl, an old woman, you still let them work in the field on this hot day?! If What should I do if I'm sick?" Wang Hui was angry and anxious, "No, why are they working in the fields and you can still call us? What are you doing, where are you the overseer next to you? Master?"
Ye Tao wanted to cry but had no tears: "...I helped, I got up with Ye Wei to work at 5 o'clock, she finished work at 8 o'clock and I went home at 8 o'clock, Ye Wei is my sister anyway, I can Do you watch her suffer? You see, I'm tired and sick, and I just rested at home today."
These words successfully made Ye Shicheng and Wang Hui shocked, angry and distressed.
Back at five from eight? What's the day like today? How hard is this? Besides, "The little girl and the old lady are not tired and sick, but you are tired and sick? Are you so squeamish?"
"..." Ye Tao was scolded, and really wanted to ask: Mom, do you know how tiring it is to do farm work? ?
After this call, Ye Tao really got a lot of scolding, and finally hung up the phone, he was relieved.
Ye Ying was listening all the time. She heard the conversation between Ye Tao and her parents. Naturally, she could hear from Ye Tao's words that her parents didn't ask her, as if they had forgotten her. never mentioned.
She misses them very much. Although she has sent messages to report safety and said a few words in the past few days, she is still a little lost and sad at the moment.
Ye Tao didn't notice Ye Ying's loss, and he seriously discussed with Ye Ying, "We said that we should take Grandma Chen out to live and let her enjoy her old age, and stop doing so much farm work. Will she be willing?"
Ye Ying shook her head and said, "I don't know either. I heard that the elderly are very fond of home. Grandma Chen has lived here for decades. She should be reluctant to let her go and leave it all, right?"
Ye Tao thinks about it and thinks it makes sense: "I think Grandma Chen should go with us. After all, Grandma Chen does so much farm work to raise Ye Wei, she has to pay Ye Wei's tuition, and she can't go out when she is old. When I go to work, I can only work and sell food for some money. Now Ye Wei doesn't have to worry about life, she doesn't have to work so hard at all. She takes care of her health and can spend a few more years with Ye Wei."
"That seems to make sense..."
"Forget it, I'll talk to Ye Wei first and see what she has to say. At least she has to agree to it first, and then I'll test Grandma Chen's thoughts."
"Ok."
Ye Ying smiled reluctantly as Ye Tao looked at Ye Tao happily planning the future.
…
For lunch, Ye Ying is going to make sliced lettuce, stir-fry green vegetables, and cook egg drop soup. In addition, she also wants to steam rice, Ye Wei said, because if she eats porridge, she will be hungry faster at work in the afternoon, and she also plans to steam a few times. A sweet potato and taro, so that when Grandma and Zhang Yu go to work, they can take it with them, and they can eat it when they are hungry.
It's a pity that she has a good idea. She has never cooked before. Even if Baidu searched for the cooking program, she was in a hurry because of the process of cooking oil in a pot. After the oil was burned for a long time, the ginger and garlic made a sizzling noise when put down. The splashing scared her so far that even Tong Ke, who was burning the fire, ran out of the kitchen!
Fortunately, Ye Wei came back in time, took the spatula in Ye Ying's hand, skillfully poured the meat into the stir-fry, put two spoonfuls of bean paste, and fry it almost, then poured in the lettuce slices and fry together. And the rice is not ready, because there is no rice cooker, this stove steamed the rice until the rice just boiled for a while, then poured out the rice soup, and then poured the boiled rice back into the pot to make it stuffy.
Ye Ying stood at the door of the kitchen, watching Ye Wei cook skillfully and silently, Ye Tao was making a fire in front of the stove, and the two of them occasionally said a word, which seemed to be very die-cut.
She bit her lip sadly, she just wanted to cook a meal, but she didn't expect to be able to do even the simplest things.
She had to admit that Ye Wei was very capable and able to endure hardships, no wonder her brother liked her.
This time Zhang Yu finally found out that Ye Ying was not very happy. He had been cutting millet all morning, and it was hot, tired and itchy. The first thing he did when he got home was to take a cold shower and changed into clean clothes. When he came out, the short-haired one was still dripping with water. Tong Ke greeted him and brought him a bowl of rice soup. Zhang Yu thanked him and put it aside without drinking it. Jiang Fei took it and drank it. Lost.
Tong Ke: ... Forget it, because Jiang Fei is also a handsome guy, I don't have the same knowledge as him.
Jiang Fei didn't think it was wrong either, so he dragged his slippers to the kitchen to steal food.
Zhang Yu found Ye Ying over there and asked her what happened? Doesn't look very happy.
Ye Ying thought that Zhang Yu and Ye Wei were talking and laughing, and she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, and her tone became a little cold: "I'm fine."
"Are you okay? Then why are you unhappy?"
"I'm not unhappy, you read it wrong."
Zhang Yu was skeptical, and of course he couldn't understand why Ye Ying was unhappy, "Okay."
He turned and went to the kitchen.
After Ye Ying saw his whereabouts, her heart was blocked again, and she bit her lip and turned her head away.
Ye Wei was cooking at the moment, wearing loose and fat clothes, and stepping on a pair of very old sandals on her feet. Seeing Zhang Yu coming over, she said casually, "Take out the bowls and chopsticks, and eat immediately."
Zhang Yu snorted and went to get the tableware.
Chen Weiguo and his wife originally wanted to come over for lunch and get closer to each other, but they also had self-awareness, so they didn't dare to follow him when no one called them, so they had to go home reluctantly.
After lunch, Ye Ying went to wash the dishes. She came out after washing the dishes, and saw that Jiang Fei and Ye Tao were already asleep. Because of the sun, they couldn't go out to work at the moment, so they could just take a nap.
She looked left and right, but didn't see Zhang Yu.
She almost reflexively went to the back of the house, and sure enough, she saw Zhang Yu helping Ye Wei to chop wood. The two were chatting and laughing. She seldom saw Zhang Yu being so gentle with other girls. A gentle, elegant and approachable boy, but in fact he is a very difficult person to approach. She could even see that Zhang Yu's friendly surface was estranged and indifferent.
Now that Zhang Yu treats Ye Wei like this, does it mean that he has recognized Ye Wei and regards Ye Wei as his own
"Zhang Yu, go and rest, I'll do it myself here." Ye Wei said.
Zhang Yu shook his head and refused: "It's okay, I'm not tired, you should go to rest, although I'm a boy, but I can't compare to you, you have done twice as much work this morning as me, you should be very tired Bar."
Ye Wei took the machete and cut the dry branches into pieces: "I'm so tired, I'm used to it. What's this, I used to work like this before, when I was young, I was tired and I was very tired. Secretly hiding and crying, thinking about when my Prince Charming will pick me up, now I feel ashamed just thinking about it."
Zhang Yu was silent for a moment. These tasks were the same all the year round. It wasn't easy because the person who did the work was young. On the contrary, it was more tiring and unbearable because of the young age. He couldn't imagine the young Ye Wei. , carrying a huge basket that can bend her body, walking on the narrow field, and you can only see the road under your feet in front of you...
"If that's a shame, then I'm even more ashamed, because I'm so tired and I want to cry now."
Ye Wei laughed: "So you can comfort people too."
Zhang Yu also smiled and said, "I'm telling the truth, I didn't comfort you."
While talking and laughing, Ye Wei suddenly looked at the corner of the wall and asked suspiciously, "Sister, why are you here? Didn't you go to take a nap?"
Zhang Yu just looked over, and sure enough she saw Ye Ying slowly walking out from behind the corner of the wall. She looked at Ye Wei, and finally her eyes fell on Zhang Yu. Zhang Yu was also looking at her. Clear and cold, Ye Ying felt that she was a little embarrassed at the moment, but she didn't want to show it, so she could only endure the sadness and said, "No, I'm here to help."
Ye Wei sighed and said, "Thank you for your help."
Ye Ying: "..."
She walked over to Zhang Yu and sat down, silently took a wooden stick and folded it into several pieces. Zhang Yu didn't speak, and Ye Wei didn't speak again. The quiet atmosphere made Ye Ying feel like an outsider at the moment. Obviously they were talking and laughing before, why did they stop talking after she came? Did she bother them
After sitting for a while, Ye Wei still didn't speak. Instead, she suddenly stood up and left. Zhang Yu glanced at her and didn't ask anything, and Ye Ying didn't ask any more.
After Ye Wei left, Ye Ying and Zhang Yu buried their heads and chopped firewood for a while, quietly, but Ye Ying couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "Why don't you talk?"
Zhang Yu snorted and looked at Ye Ying suspiciously, as if asking her what to say
Ye Ying: "..."
Ye Ying: "Nothing."
She buried herself in her work.
Zhang Yu said strangely, "Are you unhappy? What's the matter?"
Ye Ying shook her head and said nothing.
Zhang Yu sighed, "We have known each other for so many years, don't hide anything from me, you can tell me."
Ye Ying thought for a while and said, "It's nothing, just come back this time, I feel sorry for my sister. I have had a good life for 18 years, and my sister went to suffer for me for 18 years."
Zhang Yu sighed and said yes: "Although it was an accident, and it wasn't your intention, but from another angle, it's true. But don't think too much about it, I know you're trying your best to make up for it. But you also know that , Because they are afraid that you will be sad and sad, Uncle Ye and Aunt Wang are not going to take Ye Wei home, it has always hurt and saddened Ye Wei. She may be a little angry with you now, but I believe that when she waits in her heart The imbalance slowly disappears, and she should forgive you."
Ye Ying was stunned for a moment. When she said this before, Zhang Yu would always say that she was innocent. All this had nothing to do with her, but what was Zhang Yu talking about now
"You said that my sister will forgive me?"
Zhang Yu thought for a while: "Ye Wei is not the kind of person who makes trouble without reason. Although she looks a bit sharp on the surface, she is actually very soft at heart. She is not the kind of person who dislikes the poor and loves the rich, and is ungrateful, otherwise she would not be. After a few good months in the Ye family, she is willing to come back to do such hard farm work. She is so sensible, so filial, so kind, she will."
Ye Ying: "..."
She looked at Zhang Yu in surprise, not knowing what to say for a while.
In Zhang Yu's eyes now, Ye Wei is sensible, filial and kind, and he can even understand that Ye Wei doesn't like her.
Her face was pale, "If I said, it's impossible for my sister to forgive me?" She even wanted to snatch everything that belonged to her! She was very scheming, and she wanted to say that he was deceived by her.
Zhang Yu was stopped by the question, he stopped the movement in his hand and thought: "This has to be taken slowly, the injustice and hatred in Ye Wei's heart can't be smoothed out overnight, Yingying, don't worry."
Ye Ying lowered her head and smiled bitterly. She remembered Ye Wei's triumphant and vicious look at her smile. She said she wanted to take it back, and now she has succeeded more than half.
"Oh, I see."
She really regretted it now, she shouldn't have let Zhang Yu follow her.
Because she was absent-minded, she almost cut her hand when chopping wood, Zhang Yu asked her to go back to rest, she didn't try to be brave, and went back to her room to sleep for a while. Now she is in a complicated mood, just tired, she doesn't want to see anyone, and she doesn't want to say anything.
However, just after she fell asleep, someone knocked on the door. She was still a young boy of about thirteen or fourteen years old. She was wearing a certain brand of sportswear and sneakers. Although her skin was dark, her face resembled that of Chen Weiguo. Eight points, one can see who this person is at a glance.
He just came back from his grandmother's house, and when he heard that his parents, Chen Xiaohong, came back, he ran over immediately.
"Where's Chen Xiaohong? Isn't Chen Xiaohong back? Where's her?" Chen Xiaolong stood in the yard and shouted, "Milk, milk! Where's Chen Xiaohong!"
Ye Wei quickly walked out of the room, Chen Xiaolong's eyes lit up, and he said, "Chen Xiaohong, I knew you were coming back, your parents don't want you anymore, you have to pass if you want to die or live, look, taste it now. Come back to the bitter end!"
Ye Wei blinked: "Who said my parents don't want me anymore?"
"My mother said it!" Chen Xiaolong said, "Why are you standing there? Go wash my clothes and I'll give you the money!" He took ten dollars from his pocket and waved at Ye Wei triumphantly. wave.
Ye Tao was also woken up at this moment. He scratched his head and walked out: "Laundry? What to do? Give me the money? Who doesn't want anyone?"
Chen Xiaolong doesn't know who this person is, but he's used to being lawless at home. He has money at home recently. He buys everything he wants at home, which makes his temper even more lawless. , all the clothes in our family are being washed by Chen Xiaohong, hurry up and hear me!"
Ye Tao: "???"
He looked blank: "What's the matter with this stinky boy?"
Ye Wei'an was quiet, as if she was used to being called like this: "It's nothing, it's just laundry, I'll come when I go..."
"Washing clothes?!" Ye Tao finally reacted at this moment, and his face turned dark immediately, "What to wash, not to wash, don't you know how to wash your own clothes, you stinky boy?"
Chen Xiaolong was yelled at, and his face was innocent: "Our clothes are all washed by Chen Xiaohong, don't let her wash them! I won't wash them myself! I've already been thrown by the river, you quickly wash them for me. It's gone!"
Before Ye Wei could speak, Ye Tao had already jumped up and took Chen Xiaolong's collar and walked out, smiling deeply: "Let's go, I'll wash it for you."
Chen Xiaolong resisted incompetence and was a little scared.
Ye Tao turned his head and smiled at Ye Wei: "We'll come as soon as we go."
Ye Wei pretended to say: "Brother, don't have the same knowledge as a child, just wash a few clothes..."
Ye Tao ignored her, snorted coldly and carried Chen Xiaolong away.
Chen Xiaolong shouted: "Put me down, let me down, milk, milk, save me, save me! Dad-mum!"
Ye Tao didn't mean to bully the child, the main reason was that this little brat was too annoying, and he had something to ask about when he captured Chen Xiaolong. He already knew that Ye Wei didn't have a good life in the Chen family. Looking at Chen Xiaolong's flamboyant appearance, he knew that he usually used Ye Wei a lot.
Who knows this question, almost gave him a myocardial infarction!
Although Grandma Chen took Ye Wei out, Chen Weiguo still likes to instruct Ye Wei to work. Not only Chen Weiguo likes it, but also Chen Weiguo's wife. They don't have a washing machine in the mountains, and they all wash their clothes by hand, so whether it's sunny or rainy , Even in the winter, when Chen Weiguo's wife shouted, Ye Wei had to carry her clothes and carry a bucket to the river to wash her clothes!
There is no shortage of clothes for a family of three. In this big winter, just touching cold water can freeze a person to death, let alone washing clothes? It's almost half an hour!
So Ye Wei's hands are full of frostbite in winter. Because of frostbite, her fingers are short and fat, and the joints are thick, so they are so ugly...
Ye Tao was really hurt when he heard it, he wanted to beat this stinky boy!
A little kid can instruct Ye Wei like this, you can imagine how low Ye Wei's status in the Chen family is.
And look what this kid is wearing? This outfit cost thousands of dollars, and what did Ye Wei wear for the first time at Chen's house? What did Mrs. Chen get from working so hard
Chen Xiaolong was frightened by Ye Tao's ugly face, and he was also wronged. He asked Chen Xiaohong to do laundry and also gave him money. Usually Chen Xiaohong robbed him of pocket money. Hit him by the neck!
He twisted his neck and looked at Chen Xiaohong, and sure enough, he saw Chen Xiaohong shaking his fist at him.
Chen Xiaolong was so frightened that he was so overwhelmed with money recently that he almost forgot that Chen Xiaohong was a violent maniac, and he could beat him to tears every time!
The author has something to say: good night
Today is seven thousand five, which is a double update.
