Chapter 11: Argument On The Way Home
“Good girl, eat grapes.”
“Eat oranges, this one is sweet.”
The elder wanted to stuff all sorts of delicious food into Yun Jiao’s mouth.
Yun Jiao accepted everything, opening her mouth to bite, her cheeks bulging as she ate.
Cute.
However, her father, Yun Die, felt awkward on the side, forming a stark contrast with her.
“Father, eat grapes.”
Yun Jiao finally remembered her honest father.
Yun Die waved his hand: “Jiaojiao, you eat.”
Yun Jiao directly tiptoed and held the grapes up to stuff them into his mouth.
“Father, eat.”
Oranges, bananas too…
The main point was if Father didn’t eat, she’d force-feed him.
Yun Die burped, “Daughter, slow down!”
Wang Jianlin and his wife very much appreciated Yun Jiao’s generosity.
Mainly because this girl was truly too good-looking, Wang Jianlin’s wife couldn’t help but look again and again.
She wished she had such a beautiful daughter.
After the two people saw the elder to sleep, Yun Jiao and Yun Die also prepared to leave.
Just then, Wang Jianlin’s secretary also brought Yun Jiao’s two older brothers.
Although Yun Chendong and Yun Chenxi were skinny and dark, they were already 1.8 meters tall. Everyone in their family was quite tall.
Plus, they often went out to sea to work on fishing boats, so their strength was considerable, with a thin layer of muscle on their arms.
Wang Jianlin nodded as he looked at the two particularly energetic young men.
“How is it? No major issues, right?”
The two youths were young, and facing someone like Wang Jianlin, who looked amiable yet authoritative, they didn’t know how to speak. It was the secretary who then spoke.
“I went inside to take a look. Their physical indicators are very healthy, and their various fitness test results are also good. Being selected will be no problem.”
Hearing the secretary’s words, the two brothers were extremely happy, grinning and revealing neat, white teeth.
Yun Die was so excited that he repeatedly said: “Thank you, leader…”
Wang Jianlin smiled and said: “Then I should thank you first.”
Finally, Wang Jianlin and his wife stuffed a lot of fruit and pastries for Yun Jiao to carry home.
Leaving the small Western-style house, on the way back, Yun Die was still a bit dazed.
“That was a big leader! We actually spoke with a big leader and were even invited to his home as guests.”
Yun Chendong and Yun Chenxi were also very happy.
The eldest, Yun Chendong, directly picked up his sister and tossed her up: “This is the good fortune brought by our Jiao Jiao.”
Yun Die nodded repeatedly, his expression exceptionally proud: “Of course, our Jiao Jiao is kind and willing to share her meat buns.”
Meat buns are quite precious nowadays. Children have cravings, and typically children of Yun Jiao’s age would be unwilling to share the food in their mouths.
Yun Jiao was greedy but not very possessive of her food. However, you couldn’t snatch it from her; if you did, she’d get angry and throw a tantrum. She had to be willing to give it away herself.
They took a tractor back. They were carrying a lot of things, especially those pastries and fruits that looked expensive.
As soon as they got on the tractor, the family became the object of everyone’s attention.
“Oh my, has Lin Hai’s family prospered? They’re willing to buy so many expensive things?”
As soon as they got on, someone impatiently started asking, and the surrounding people also pricked up their ears, seeming to want to hear their explanation.
People at this time, especially those in the village, didn’t have the thought of prying into others’ privacy.
They were all from the same village; whatever happened in a household, it would be known by everyone in the village within a day.
Yun Die smiled honestly: “You all know our family’s situation, how could we afford these expensive things? We still need to save money to buy a boat. This, this is our good luck. We saved a confused, lost elder, and after finding his home, he gave us these things to show his gratitude.”
Hearing this, no one on the tractor doubted them.
After all, everyone was very clear about Yun Linhai’s family’s economic situation.
They only marveled at Yun Linhai’s family’s good luck, wondering why such good things never happened to them.
“Oh my, I haven’t even seen some of these fruits. I wonder what they taste like. Lin Hai, you have so much, can you share some with your sister?”
As soon as she heard this, it was clear she was thick-skinned. Cai Jinhua squeezed her way over to Yun Jiao’s side.
Yun Die’s expression immediately soured.
This Cai Jinhua really had the nerve to ask. He knew full well that she had been calling his Jiao Jiao a bringer of misfortune behind their backs.
“We have so many people in our family, it’s not enough to eat.”
Cai Jinhua seemed not to understand Yun Old Father’s thinly veiled refusal: “How is it not enough? Aren’t there still quite a few? Besides, how much can your few younger ones and this little girl eat?
It’s not that I’m saying this to you, Lin Hai, but you’re raising Yun Jiao, fine, but why is everything you give her better than what you give your own sons? I say these things shouldn’t be eaten by girls.
Anyway, they’ll get married out eventually. They say a married daughter is like spilled water; she’s someone else’s in the future. What’s the point of raising her so well? Moreover, she’s not even your biological daughter.”
Yun Die was furious at her words.
“Cai Jinhua, shut up! This is my child, my daughter. Whatever we want to do with her is none of your business!”
Yun Chendong covered Yun Jiao’s ears and said in a low voice: “Don’t listen, don’t listen. Jiao Jiao is our treasure. Don’t listen to her words.”
Yun Chenxi had a more fiery temper and was about to point at Cai Jinhua’s nose and scold her.
“Auntie, I’m not trying to be rude, but aren’t you sticking your nose in too far? Saying this in front of the children, aren’t you afraid of being immoral?”
Cai Jinhua had now offended all three father and sons of Yun Linhai on the tractor.
“Hey… how are you talking to an elder?”
Yun Chenxi: “What kind of elder are you? Even the proper elders in my family haven’t said such things to Jiao Jiao. Your tongue is quite long. You don’t value your own daughters and are proud of yourself.”
The surrounding people watched as if watching a show. Although they also felt that Yun Linhai’s family treated Yun Jiao too well, what Cai Jinhua said was indeed unpleasant.
Cai Jinhua couldn’t win against three mouths, so she sat down and started making a scene, loudly shouting that Yun Linhai’s family was bullying people.
The rumbling of the tractor wasn’t louder than her voice.
In such a situation, it was a bit of a disadvantage for a man not to make a scene.
“Father eat, brother eat…”
Yun Jiao peeled an orange, divided some among the three of them, and then pulled them to sit down.
“Sit, watch the show.”
She peeled another orange and divided it piece by piece among the other people on the tractor.
Yun Jiao naturally had her own little tricks for offering oranges.
They received food, even if it was just a small segment, it was sweet.
With their mouths full, everyone else looked at Yun Jiao with kind smiles.
In the end, Yun Jiao ignored only Cai Jinhua and sat with her father and brothers, eating small bites while staring at Cai Jinhua making a scene.
I won’t give it to her, let her die of anger!
This feeling of performing a one-person show was very awkward, and Cai Jinhua quickly couldn’t continue.
She stopped, and Yun Jiao tilted her head, her bright eyes full of curiosity, and asked sincerely.
“Auntie, why didn’t you continue? We haven’t reached the village yet.”
She hadn’t seen enough. Humans rolling on the ground were really fun to watch.
“Hahaha…”
An auntie who didn’t get along well with Cai Jinhua started laughing, and others quickly joined in.
In the past, when people in the village argued and made a scene, it would get more intense, and they would always strive for victory.
They didn’t expect it could be like this. That little girl Yun Jiao was really interesting; she treated Cai Jinhua’s tantrum as a play.
“You little cheap tart…”
Cai Jinhua was furious and started speaking without restraint.
Yun Linhai and his two sons immediately changed their expressions.
“Cai Jinhua, shut up!”
