Chapter 6 Strange

Like a suckling swallow, Ye Songlan happily ran over, "Daddy, lunch is ready. Elder Sister and I made it together. I'm about to invite you and brother to eat."

Ye Shi'an picked up Ye Silan, let her sit in the crook of his arms, and boasted with a smile, "Our little Silan is really capable." When he turned to look at Ye Xinyi, he didn't say anything. With an unremarkable appearance, "Let's set the meal! After the meal, I'm going to Xiasan Hutong for a doctor's visit."

Ye Shi'an's ordinary attitude made Ye Xinyi heave a sigh of relief.

Meals are served in the main room. There are only four people in the family at a simple square table. One person sits on one side and eats a meal quietly.

Even though it wasn't rich, the rice was mixed with some corn, but at least it was cooked, just one pickled vegetable and one pickled cabbage. No wonder these children looked sallow and emaciated.

But Ye Chuanbai and Ye Songlan must be two little ones who are used to eating, and they eat very sweetly.

After eating, Ye Chuanbai took the initiative to do the washing up, and Ye Shi'an told Ye Xinyi to let her have a good rest, then picked up the medicine box and went out to see a doctor.

Although Ye Chuanbai was young, he worked swiftly, but after a while, he finished cleaning up, pulled Ye Songlan aside, looked at Ye Xinyi warily, and asked, "What did Ye Xinyi tell you just now? Did he bully you?"

Ye Songlan took a look at Ye Xinyi, then shook her head vigorously, "No, sister talked to me and even taught me how to cook."

"Is she so kind?" Ye Chuanbai looked her up and down suspiciously.

Little brat, your hair hasn't even grown yet, yet you've learned to be skeptical?
Ye Xinyi snorted inwardly, feeling nothing interesting at once, turned around and went back to his room, leaving the two children muttering behind him.

"Brother, don't say that, sister is really good today."

"Today? You didn't just meet her today, so stay away from her in the future."

After closing the door to isolate those voices from the outside, Ye Xinyi sighed.

During the past half a day, her feelings gradually became real. Although she accepted the fact that she had indeed become this girl named Ye Xinyi for the time being, it seemed that it was not so easy to accept everything about her immediately.

As for the rejection and hostility of this "brother", she didn't care that much, she just found it a bit boring.

Most likely, she was not related to her in the past and now, and she was able to live in the past, but now, it's no big deal, anyway, she's used to it.

In this way, the relationship between the predecessor and younger siblings is not good, which can be regarded as a benefit, but he is happy to be at ease.

Ye Xinyi stretched his eyebrows, turned his head and saw the bronze mirror on the dressing table under the window, and then remembered that he hadn't seen what he looks like now.

The bronze mirror was small, but it was bigger than a palm, so it was naturally not as clear as the diorama she was used to.However, it can still be seen that although this face is a little yellow and thin, but the facial features are correct.

Thinking about it, the family I saw today is pretty good, so naturally she shouldn't be in a bad position.

Ye Xinyi didn't care much about appearance in the past. In today's world, being too good-looking may not be a blessing.What's more, for such a family with no power and influence, if they look too good, they may be a disaster in the future.But if it is too ugly, it will inevitably poke people's eyes, and I will feel uncomfortable.

Now it is just right.When she grows up later, she is more than handsome, but not glamorous.

On the dressing table, besides the bronze mirror, there is also a dressing box.What surprised Ye Xinyi was that this makeup box was actually very delicately made.Carved red sandalwood with twining lotus flowers, inlaid with mother-of-pearl and precious stones, such a makeup box, no matter what, should not appear in a family like the Ye family.

This makeup box alone is probably worth half of the Ye family's wealth.

Ye Xinyi was suspicious, so he opened the makeup box and rummaged through it.There is nothing in the makeup box, only a few flower ropes on the left, and a thin hollow silver bracelet, which is really lackluster.And in the compartment below, there are some paper notes.

Ye Xinyi, however, had doubts, so he decided to ask for a clear temper.Taking out those few things, she groped and tapped the makeup case inch by inch, and she really found a mezzanine.

She raised her eyebrows, looking at the thumb-sized Dongzhu that was taken out from the interlayer, a strange light flashed in her eyes.This kind of appearance, even she had rarely seen it before, the Ye family... What's the secret?
After thinking for a while, she stuffed the Dongzhu back into the dark compartment and put it away, then unfolded the few pieces of paper.

The first few sheets are copybooks written by someone, typical lower case hairpin flower, delicate and elegant.

The next few pictures were copied by someone according to this copybook. The brushstrokes are a little immature, but they still have two points of skill. It must not be achieved overnight.

Ye Xinyi became more and more suspicious. How could girls from ordinary families have the opportunity to read and write?Barely able to recognize a few characters is already good, how can I practice such a good hand?
It seems that her current family is not as ordinary as it seems on the surface!

For a while, Ye Xinyi couldn't express what he felt in his heart.

When she was out of her mind, she heard Ye Songlan's cry from outside the house, and immediately after, her door was slammed.

Ye Xinyi came to his senses, quickly put the things in the makeup box back in place, and opened the door. Outside the door was Ye Songlan's little red face from crying, with panic still on her face.

"What's wrong?" Ye Xinyi has always been a little more patient with people or things weaker than him.

"Sister... my brother and Fatty Liang are fighting." Ye Silan cried hard, pointing her little finger outward.

Fight?Ye Xinyi raised his eyebrows, "Let's go!" He stepped out the door, pulled Ye Silan up and ran out.

It wasn't that far away, it was within an alley hundreds of steps away from Ye's house, and Ye Xinyi had already heard the children's booing and shouting before they approached.

The closer you get, the clearer you can hear.

There was even a child who said in a sullen tone, "Short Ye, what kind of onion are you? How dare you talk to me? I beat you today so that you don't even know your parents, oh! By the way I forgot, what kind of mother is there? Isn’t your mother dead? Ouch! Now you have become a motherless wild child. At some point, your father will marry you a stepmother. , if you don’t give food or clothes, then you’re going to be a dwarf forever!”

"You glaring at me? Why are you glaring at me? Are you not convinced? That's good! I will beat you until you are convinced!"

Ye Xinyi frowned when he heard this, and there was a faint flash of anger in his eyes.

Pulling Ye Songlan for a few steps, he turned to the entrance of the alley, and when he looked up, he saw a tall and fat boy sitting on Ye Chuanbai's thin body, and he was raising his fist to greet him, and there were several other people beside him. The kid gathered around to watch the fun, applauding while watching.

What a shame.
